The comeback 680 teases reporters

At this time, Hugo did not look like the subject of the interview at all, but looked like a student who humbly asked for advice, which made all the reporters a little confused: Could it be that Hugo had a different way of dealing with them again?

Looking back on the past few months, Hugo has not only had moments of confrontation with reporters, but also moments when he turned a blind eye to reporters, and there were moments of ridicule and irony, but today Hugo seems to be a newcomer who has just entered the circle for a short time, with an expression of intellectual curiosity that looks very sincere, no sarcasm, no ridicule, and no confrontation. This made the reporters a little uncomfortable.

However, the reporters are all veteran fritters, and now seeing that Hugo is showing weakness, they will directly attack head-on regardless of whether they are trapped, even if they are the first to fall into the trap, there are countless other reporters next to them who can continue to ask questions, not to mention, even if they fall into the trap, as long as they can dig up the news, they will not hesitate. Therefore, the reporters did not have so many concerns, and their minds were running rapidly.

"It's because your choices are always incomprehensible, in every way." A reporter quickly asked, because he was standing in the crowd, and the speed of the question, Hugo didn't know which media he was from, anyway, for Hugo, a "face blind" patient, a strange face, "Why did you choose an action popcorn movie?" Didn't you worry about it back then. Hudson's Eagle, will the failure happen again? ”

"Can I understand that the work of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and others has not been recognized accordingly?" Hugo's rhetorical question made the reporter's expression stiffen in an instant, but Hugo's face did not have any mockery, it was still a serious expression, which made the reporter unable to find a point of borrowing even if he wanted to get angry, so he could only widen his eyes, and his breath was blocked in his throat, and he couldn't go up or down, which was very uncomfortable.

"I've always been interested in action movies, and I want to try big scenes that are hard to experience in life, isn't that fun?" Hugo said seriously, "As for . . . Hudson's Eagle... I never thought that should be a shame, and that's one of the works of my career, and I'm comfortable with that. ”

In fact, every man has a classic of action movies in his heart, maybe it is the "007" series, maybe it is the "Mission Impossible" series, maybe it is a work like "Seven Deadly Sins", "Very Suspects", or a work like "Batman Prequel: The Dark Knight", no matter what, watching the hard-fought confrontation between men on the big screen always makes people's blood boil, and being able to be one of them is indeed everyone's dream.

Hugo's rebuttal made the reporter choke, but another reporter next to him immediately stepped on, "But this is a commercial film......

Since the Golden Raspberry Award, Hugo has returned to the previous route of the "Dead Poets Society", carefully selected, literary and artistic works, and polished acting skills, which is also an important reason why the media generally believes that Hugo has been able to recover strongly in the past two years.

"Could it be. Seattle sleeps at night, doesn't it? Hugo retorted directly.

Hugo's rhetorical question made the reporters very embarrassed, in fact, "Sleepless in Seattle" is a chick movie, strictly speaking, all chick movies are commercial popcorn movies; However, Nora Epron's screenwriting has always been different, instilling a literary atmosphere in the film, and interpreting the weight of love in life in a different way, so people are more willing to regard "Sleepless in Seattle" as a literary sketch. But...... This is indeed a chick movie.

Hugo knew the reporters' hesitation, so he continued, "Besides, I don't think my past few films have any commercial elements, if you want, you can check the box office results, I think it should be good." ”

Hugo's rhythm of speech is always unhurried, as if he is a professional professor attending a seminar, which is in stark contrast to the reporter's anxiety, but at this moment, Hugo's extremely sincere words reflect the greatest irony: Hugo's box office results in the past four works, no one knows who knows, which is also the most direct proof of Hugo's strong rise.

If Hugo's past four works are all literary and artistic works, then what is the box office? This immediately swallowed all the words of the reporter

"But, except. . . The speed of life and death, in addition, you have many choices......" A reporter's question on the right hand was blocked by Hugo's gentle "such as", Hugo's words were very soft, but the connection speed was very fast, so that the reporter couldn't react, this feeling was very aggrieved.

Leonardo, who was standing on Hugo's right hand, couldn't hold back for a moment, and laughed out loud, this laughter sounded like the most vivid mockery in the ears of reporters, which made several reporters can't bear to look at them directly, they have already realized: don't look at Hugo's expression of curiosity to show weakness, but in fact it is themselves who are really ashamed.

The reporter was stunned, but continued, "I mean, you can now receive a $10 million salary for a work, and even Paramount Pictures and Universal Pictures have offered you a $15 million salary to invite you to star in the ......" Later, the reporter was furious by Hugo's clear eyes, and the words were automatically silenced at the end.

Hugo thought that the reporter hadn't finished asking, so he waited for another two seconds and had to ask, "Finished?" The reporter nodded hurriedly, and the corners of Hugo's mouth showed a kind smile, "Of course, I must thank them for being willing to pay me such a high salary, I hope that next time I can have the opportunity to cooperate, salary is not the only criterion for actors to receive scripts, isn't it?" At least I still have the right to pick and choose, so I'm lucky to become. The speed of life and death, a member of the crew. ”

Hugo has always given people the feeling of being a sunny gentleman, the overall temperament is very kind, and the smile on the corner of his mouth makes people feel warm. But I don't know what the reason is, the reporters always feel that they are half short when they see Hugo at this time, and then they are a little short of breath during the conversation.

Could it be that it was because during the several head-to-head confrontations in December, the reporter's sharpness was forced down by Hugo?

It's like Hugo's words just now, and the reporter feels strange to his ears, as if he is satirizing Francis Ford Coppola who had to shoot "The Godfather 3" in order to pay off the debt of his career fiasco in the eighties. However, there was no obvious hint in Hugo's words, which made reporters suspect that they were thinking too much.

This little bit of crankiness made the scene blank for about a second, and a reporter in front of him hurriedly broke the silence and continued the question, "But. The speed of life and death, only 28 million is invested, which is too little for an action movie. ”

"A high investment does not necessarily lead to a high return." Hugo's answer was simple and neat.

This phrase has sparked a heated debate in the 21st century, because often high investments can be rewarded with huge returns, but failure can lead to tragic consequences. But in the nineties, this sentence was not so controversial, and people generally agreed with this view, believing that an investment of more than 100 million was not necessary. The success of "Terminator 2" is due to the special effects of the liquid machine Qì Man T-1000, and now high investments such as "Future Water World" and "Cut Throat Island" are not optimistic.

"But. . . The speed of life and death, the lineup is too ... For this industry, there is no trustworthy member in the crew, and it is difficult to guarantee the quality of the finished product. Another reporter quickly connected and continued to put pressure on Hugo.

But Hugo didn't answer in a hurry, but laughed hehe, "Steven Spielberg was originally filmed. Jaws, at the time, no one is optimistic. ”

"You're putting it. The speed of life and death, and. Great white sharks, compare? Or is it to compare Jane de Bont to Steven Spielberg? The reporter quickly interrupted Hugo's words, as if he had finally caught a loophole in Hugo's words.

Hugo's smile is a little more playful, although the "speed of life and death" is not as good as the significance of the times of "Jaws", but the wonderful Cheng dù is indeed worth comparing, but Hugo does not intend to say so, this will only make the reporters further controversial, so Hugo smiled and shook his head, "No, I mean, Steven also came up step by step from his namelessness, and so do I, I believe that Hollywood is a place where countless talents are gathered, and everyone has their own opportunities." ”

"What's more, in . In the lineup, Jane and Ian are also professionals who have participated in many works, and ......" Speaking of this, Hugo paused and turned his head to look at Leonardo beside him, "You seem to be ignoring the guys around me, although Leo is young, you should believe in his ability." ”

At this moment, Leonard is only nineteen years old, although he has won a lot of praise for his "different sky", not to mention the huge reputation accumulated by the previous "growing pains", he can still only be regarded as a new star in the film industry. However, "A Different Sky" won Leonardo an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor, so reporters had no way to say that Leonardo was "incapable" to his face, which immediately made reporters dumbfounded.

Hugo's words also pushed Leonardo in front of everyone, which made Leonardo a little flustered, and he hurriedly smiled, "I'm very happy to be able to partner with Hugo, I believe in Hugo's vision, and the works he chooses are trustworthy." ”

Leonardo's words were originally polite, but he hit a core point: the four works selected by Hugo in the past have been repeatedly unfavorable, but they have all completed the turnaround in the end, and Hugo's vision is indeed trustworthy

So, the reporters had nothing to say for a moment, Hugo patted Leonardo on the shoulder, and still said seriously with a smile, "Look, I can't find the problem, can you find it?" Why do you have to question every one of my works? ”

…… The reporter has nothing to say, at this time they do not understand that they were teased by Hugo, then they will be fooled in vain, but the truth is that even if they understand, they are powerless to fight back.
