Chapter 1175: Sensational News
David and Andrew listened to this, not knowing whether to laugh or be strict. Watching Hugo seriously say that he is too handsome and his facial features are too conspicuous, this kind of narcissistic statement really doesn't match Hugo at all. But the truth is that even if Hugo said this, they would not be able to refute it, because this qiē seemed to be taken for granted.
The problem is that Hugo's discussion now is not about his appearance, but on the shaving of his head. David and Andrew clearly got the focus wrong.
"Uh, of course, of course......" David looked a little incoherent, he didn't even know what he was talking about, he glanced at Andrew, exchanged glances, but didn't gain much, "I mean, if you shave your head, of course your temperament will change," Many people look fierce after shaving their heads, and professionals know that hairstyles are actually half of their faces, "but are you okay?" You're a singer......"
The matter of Glory to Death and the signing of EMI Records has caused a lot of uproar, even outsiders have heard of it, not to mention that this news is also related to Hugo. Generally speaking, singers' hairstyles cannot be changed lightly, especially idol singers, who must be approved by the company.
Hugo waved his hand nonchalantly, "Now I'm an actor." "Besides, rock bands have never cared about these nuanced things." And I get a lot of salary, which is not good if I don't show a little dedication. Hugo's self-teasing made David and Andrew laugh because they knew it wasn't that simple.
David couldn't help but pause, lost in thought.
In fact, objectively speaking, if Hugo shaves his head, this is indeed more in line with the image of an anonymous person in David's mind, but David also clearly knows that Hugo is not an ordinary actor, even if it is not an exaggeration to say that "Hugo's every move affects the hearts of countless fans", so this is something that needs to be carefully considered.
In fact, most actors in Hollywood now take great care of their hair, such as Tom Cruise, such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, such as Mel Gibson, such as Brad Pitt, not to mention letting them shave their heads, even if they cut their hair short, they must constantly negotiate with their agents.
The most obvious case is that Tom not only did not cut the board in "Top Gun", but also combed a handsome hairstyle - albeit short, Fang Kilmer (Val. Kilmer) had shaved both sideburns, but the hair in the center was not cut short and had been smeared with a pile of wax.
Short hair and board size are acceptable for most male actors, but the premise is that they must be suitable and handsome. Some actors refuse to cut their hair short because their heads are too flat or round, so they reject many scripts, which is not new in Hollywood.
But a bald head is unacceptable for almost all male actors. Because the bald head not only looks fierce, but also completely exposes the shape of his head, the hairstyle equivalent to half of the face is no longer supportive. Many people are super handsome with their hair and become mediocre or even ugly when they shave their heads. This is a fatal blow to the actors.
Except for shaving his head like Bruce Willis because his hair loss was too strict; Or the future is like "The Rock" Dwayne Johnson. Johnson), Vin Diesel (VIN. Diesel) so to highlight his tough guy image, choose a bald head. Other than that, few actors are willing to shave their heads.
This is also the reason why once an actor shaves his head can become news, and even Tom Cruise caused a heated discussion when he dyed his hair white to play "Killing with a Knife". It's not the media fuss, but the hairstyle does have a very special role for actors.
Now, Hugo said so lightly that he was going to shave his head, which was really a huge shock to David. Objectively speaking, no matter who is replaced, it is estimated that they will be surprised: Hugo? The most popular actor in the United States today, Hugo? Even if he rejects the "Seven Deadly Sins" for refusing to shave his head, it's a matter of course, that Hugo? Very few people are able to calm down.
Hugo has just taken on the burden of "playing a big name" for the crew, and now he has to shave his head for the movie. David really didn't know how to respond.
But David also knows that Hugo is not an impulsive person, and at the same time Hugo is still a very professional person, the first conversation between the two people was like this before, and the two of them have spoken on the phone many times recently in the process of preparing for the crew, not to mention these two things that happened today.
When David thought of this, he actually already had the answer in his heart. David originally wanted to ask "Is your agent okay?" or something like that, but after thinking about it, he knew that this was also a redundant question, so he said, "As long as you are willing, I am willing to accompany you." ”
When he was young, David still had a lot of hair.
Hugo laughed, "Then it's decided, at least I'm not the only one in the crew, it's not so eye-catching." This sentence made David laugh directly.
Andrew, who was sitting on the side, was dumbfounded, but after recalling it, he clearly knew that this was Hugo's dedication expression, and his mood couldn't help but soar, "It seems that the media is going to be surprised next." However, David, you are the director, and you don't appear on the screen, so you take advantage of it. ”
David glanced at Andrew, "Why don't you join us too?" ”
Andrew was choked directly, choking on his own saliva and coughing violently, which made both Hugo and David laugh. Andrew looked at the two people in front of him who were smiling so brightly, and said indignantly, "Shave, shave, anyway, I'm a screenwriter, and no one cares!" ”
So, thirty minutes later, the dressing table became the most lively place for the entire crew.
After Brad changed his clothes, he was pulled aside by Martin, and the two talked for a long time, the work "Seven Deadly Sins" is very important to Brad, and the head-to-head confrontation with Hugo is a double-edged sword, if Brad is not 100% committed, he will be hurt in the end.
When Brad came back, he saw that almost two-thirds of the crew were gathered around the dressing table, and everyone was still coaxing, and others couldn't squeeze in. Brad was surprised and asked the person watching the excitement next to him, "What's going on?" ”
"Hugo was going to shave his head, and then both the director and the screenwriter were with him." The person who answered also seemed to be in high spirits, with incredible anticipation clearly written on his face.
Brad's first reaction was "Hugo is crazy", no actor would be willing to take the initiative to shave his head! But when Brad came back to his senses, he realized that Hugo was using this method to grab attention, so that Hugo became the focus of the crew almost effortlessly, and the point is that the crew would not feel this way at all, but would only think that Hugo was bold and dedicated enough. This really made Brad disdainful. Despicable and shameless!
Looking up at the dense crowd, Brad cursed indignantly, it was better to shave his head after Hugo looked ugly and reduced to a laughing stock!
Rick, who was standing at the back of the crowd, couldn't laugh, he had sighed for the fifth time in a row.
Hugo's absence from the press conference is a good thing, called retreat as advance; But Hugo shaved his head? This will have an impact on Hugo's next work, whether it is for other works or musical performances, and to exaggerate, Hugo's bald image is bound to cause an uproar, and it is estimated that after the media learns the news, someone will pay a sky-high price to buy photos of Hugo's bald head from the paparazzi.
Thinking of this, Rick felt a headache. When Hugo persuaded him just now, why did he think it made sense, why did he nod his head for granted?
"My hair has already been shaved, so it's useless to worry about it." Joseph naturally knew what Rick was worried about, "Don't worry, the crew will block the news, Hugo will wear a hat when he goes out, and he just joked that he asked Samora to buy a wig." Anyway, it's spring recently, and traveling with a hat won't cause suspicion. The media won't know about it anytime soon. ”
"But what if the media knew?" Rick knows what Joseph is saying, but as an agent, it's his job to be thoughtful.
"Then let them know." Joseph smiled and said, "It's me and Samora who are in trouble next, right?" Remember to give me your list of bodyguards. "If the media knew about Hugo's shaved head, the paparazzi would probably try to take exclusive photos, and maybe someone would use force to take off Hugo's hat, and then the trouble would naturally be Joseph and his personal protection.
Rick looked at Joseph's smile and couldn't help but laugh as well, and his mood relaxed a little. As Joseph said, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, anyway, the recent Endeavor elite brokerage company has been facing huge challenges, and there is no fear of more debts. What's more, he should have more faith in Hugo, shouldn't he? Thinking of this, Rick breathed a long sigh of relief, and also cheered up in anticipation of Hugo's bald image.
Not to mention the news media, even they themselves are too curious. Just look at the enthusiasm of the on-site staff.
The media fryer, not just the boiling water fryer, but the kind of fryer with volcanic eruptions, almost all the media jumped up, eager to release the news as soon as possible, and at this moment they can't wait for themselves to have two more legs and two hands. Less than 12 hours later, the "National Inquirer" published the evening newspaper of the day, preempting the news before other media outlets.
However, it is not the "bald" news that David and Rick are worried about, and it is clear that this matter is still well hidden, and Anthony Bond Stewart almost can't wait to declare to everyone, "Hugo Lancaster has ninety-three reporters waiting and absent from the press conference!" "It's almost not like waving the flag directly and shouting "Hugo plays a big name".
As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation in the United States! Because this time, Hugo had no room for quibbling.
