"Happy Family" Christopher a Elode is a maker zuò people. Carl said directly, in fact, the part that I really hesitated about was very simple, which was to fix the location of the show. You know, only by asking for more performance opportunities can more people know Alex, and at the same time, Alex can get more exercise. This chance, if Alex auditioned for the show, it would be a regular performance. However, I heard that it was an open audition, so I was a little hesitant. ”

After Hugo heard the name of the series, he always felt very familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, the answer came to his mind, and his eyes suddenly lit up!

Sitcoms have a very long history in the development of American television dramas, appearing as early as the forties, and continued until 2014, as Hugo knew, "The Big Bang Theory. bi9。 baheory)", "bankrupt 'female' child (2. broke。 girls)" and "Moder Douy" are among the best.

In the nineties, after ups and downs, sitcoms reached a peak, "Seinfeld", "Friends", "Will and Grace (p; Grace)", "Everybody loves Raymond. loves。 raymond)" and other dramas, which have achieved an explosive 'sexual' response, and the super high popularity of more than ten years has created a trough for a long time after the end of these episodes, because almost no sitcom can surpass the peak of the nineties.

Of course, the reason why the 90s became the pinnacle of sitcoms is because there were many 'fine' and brilliant dramas during this period, and all the dramas broke out collectively before ushering in the heyday. Among these dramas, "Friends" is undoubtedly the most familiar drama in China, and it has won the most popularity. But in fact, in the ranking of the most popular sitcoms in American history, "Friends" can only rank second, and "Seinfeld" occupies the championship. This is related to cultural differences, communication channels and other factors.

"Happy Family" is also such a drama that is ignored by domestic audiences, in fact, this series can definitely rank among the top ten or even the top five in the historical list of sitcoms, and even many professional film critics think that this series is more 'outstanding' than "Seinfeld". But due to objective factors such as publicity and aesthetics, Hugo has never heard of this series before, like many domestic audiences.

The reason why Hugo knew about this series was precisely because of its producer, Christopher Elrod. Christopher's career as a producer has had a limited number of episodes, but the success of a "Modern Family" set has made his name remembered and introduced Hugo to the seven-time Emmy winner of the Best Comedy Series series. Christopher won the Best Comedy Series in 2010 and 2011 with "Modern Family", and before that, he won the Emmy Award for Best Comedy Series with "Happy Family" from l994 to i] 1998, beating "Friends" and "Seinfeld" for five consecutive years.

This shows the toughness of Christopher and Elrod, and it also shows the "color" of the "happy family".

Hugo had no idea that the series that made Carl hesitate would be such an outstanding work, and it would be great if Alex could be a part of this series. It's just that Hugo doesn't have an actor named "Alexandre Lorraine" in his memory, so he is not sure if Alex will be able to succeed. But then again, Hugo and Lancaster have both created their own new world of actors, and it is possible for them to do so.

"Carl, in my opinion, there's nothing wrong with Alex going to try it. You know, it's just an audition, and it's an open audition, and it's still unknown whether Alex will be able to pass Guò, so you're already starting to worry about whether the show is a good fit, and it's too late for you to worry when Alex wins the title. Hugo opened his mouth to persuade, in fact, this is also consistent with his previous thoughts, the script of the first episode of the sitcom really can't explain anything, the most important thing is creativity, which Hugo felt deeply after watching the navigation episode of "The Big Bang Theory".

"Really? Do you think Alex should give it a try?" Carl asked, uncertain.

"Carl, you're not deaf." Hugo said with a smile, "It's just an audition, you should give yourself a chance, and you should trust your own judgment." Carl, it looks like you've been really stressed lately. ”

Carl let out a long breath, "It's not easy to be a good agent, don't you think?" What I have in my hands is the future of artists, and I won't say anything like dreams, but this is their life, career, whether it's a year or ten years, their career opportunities during this period are in my hands, and if I'm a bad agent, maybe I'll ruin a life. ”

Carl's heaviness made Hugo chuckle, "Carl, that's life, isn't it?" You have mastered their lives, so why don't they control yours? If we all think like you and always pin the motivation of life on others, it would be too tiring, think about yourself, stick to your definition of an agent, and I think, you will succeed. "Carl, like Joseph, is a 'colorful' agent, they just need time to grow up slowly, of course, agents, like artists, also need opportunity and a little luck.

"Yes, yes, I've been under too much pressure lately." Karl rubbed his cheek vigorously, "Recently, the company has been fighting for more and more 'swings', and today it seems that something bad has happened again; Forkine does not seem to be in a very good state, I heard that he fell out with the band again, and played drums at home several nights, which made me sleep unstable, so Ernst called the police." Check it out. ”

"Haha, it's really Ernst's 'sexual' personality." Hugo couldn't help but be amused, "The internal turmoil of the company doesn't have much impact on us, does it?" The job is still work, and the job is still not worked. ”

Although Hugo is now cooperating with Steven and Spielberg, his weight is still not enough, even if Marvin and Josephson want to take back control of the company and hope that an agent will start to stand in line, small shrimp like Carl and Joseph are not taken seriously, and no matter which team they stand on, it will not have much impact on the overall situation.

Of course, if there was no Golden Globe incident, Hugo would still have some influence, after all, the eight consecutive championships of "Yihai Xiongfeng" cannot be underestimated. But now, Hugo, who was "isolated" on the European continent, naturally left the whirlpool of this power struggle far away, and by the time someone remembered the incredible eight consecutive championships, it was estimated that it was already the end of the power struggle.

"I know it's just that the work environment has become smoky, and there is always no way for people to settle down." Karl said helplessly, "Do you have any plans if they let you take sides?"

"Let's hope Long doesn't do anything stupid." Hugo was saying that he would never be in the ranks of Lang Yimayer.

This made Carl laugh directly, but then realized that he was in the office, and quickly lowered his voice, "He did it once, you don't know if he will do it a second time." ”

"So...... Welcome!" Hugo jokingly said that if Lang really took the initiative to send the 'door', Hugo would not mind refusing him "with righteous words" once, and he was looking forward to what kind of expression the grumpy Lang would have at that time.

"Hehe......" Carl was also amused by Hugo, he suddenly stopped, realizing that he had another important matter to call Joseph, and he had been chatting with Hugo too happily just now, but he actually forgot about it, "By the way, Hugo, is Joe next to you?" I have something to talk to him about. ”

"No problem." Hugo took the receiver off and shouted into the bathroom, "Joe, Carl's phone." As a result, Joseph walked out of the room, and Hugo realized, "We've been talking on the phone for so long?" You're done blowing your hair. ”

Joseph walked up to Hugo, took the microphone, and first said to Hugo, "You should go to the shower, and when the time comes, you will get ready to rest, and you will get up at six o'clock tomorrow to film." After seeing Hugo back to the room, Joseph sat down and put the earpiece to his ear, "Carl, what's the matter?"

When Hugo came out after bathing, he found that Joseph was no longer in the hall, and Hugo thought that Joseph had gone back to the room to rest, but when he walked through the hall, he found that Joseph was actually standing on the balcony and 'smoking', which surprised Hugo. Joseph 'smokes', but he doesn't have a craving, so he rarely 'smokes', and more often only 'smokes' in social 'social' situations. And today Joseph actually took the initiative to 'smoke' a cigarette, which is obviously something happened, Hugo couldn't help but think of Carl's phone call just now.

When Hugo walked to the 'door' of the ledge, Joseph noticed the sound of his footsteps, and when he looked back at Hugo, he raised his hand to stop Hugo, reminding, "I'm smoking." "Hugo has recently had to smoke because of his horns, which exacerbated his allergy symptoms, and although not as severe as shock, the redness and swelling of his skin are very worrying.

But Hugo didn't care, and pointed to the wide night sky outside, "The smoke has been blown away by the wind." Then he went straight to the balcony and stopped beside Joseph.

Joseph could only hurriedly extinguish the cigarette butt, "Why don't you plan to rest yet?" Wake up early tomorrow. ”

Hugo pointed to the cigarette butt that had just been "lived" by Joseph, "Seeing that you 'smoke' a cigarette, I should at least come over and ask." This made Joseph tug at the corners of his mouth and smile bitterly, "No matter what happens, at least our friends are still around, and that's something to be thankful for, isn't it?" This is also the most precious truth that Hugo has learned in the whole course of his life, whether it is the previous period of glory to death band, or the experience of traveling through this year.

Joseph did not speak, but let out a long breath as if to brew for a while, and then he spoke, "Peter is in trouble again." ”
