It was a very pleasant dinner, and although Hugo and Nora were talking most of the time, Rob and Joseph were not idle, and they would 'interject' a few words from time to time, making the atmosphere of the dinner relaxed and cozy. When dinner was over, Nora even asked for dessert, and the meal didn't end until half past ten.

After Hugo sat in Renault's spacious and comfortable passenger seat, Joseph drove the car out of the parking lot and drove back in the direction of his home. After changing the van, the good car was noticeably calmer and more comfortable, and Joseph clearly loved the car and had to drive it almost every day – even if Hugo didn't travel for the past two days.

But today Joseph didn't have the heart to enjoy the pleasure of driving, his tense feelings could finally be relieved, "Wow, Hugo, you know, you are really adventurous today." Any slight mistake may ruin the atmosphere of the dinner, and Rob will probably be embarrassed as well. ”

Hugo also felt the infinite exhaustion of his spirit, in fact, in the first half of tonight's dinner, Hugo was always on high alert, because he had to blend into a horn 'color', as if he was acting all the time. This gave Hugo a taste of the room. It's not easy for spies, and every second of life is spent in another identity, what kind of torment is this.

Of course, this whole performance is also another test for Hugo, because he has to think about how a widower like Sam will deal with these situations where there is no zài in the script, which is not only a further understanding of the diagonal 'color' and a deep analysis of the anguine 'color' after leaving the script, but also a higher-level test of Hugo's self-hypnosis and entering the state of acting. Although the whole process is still a little flawed, Hugo has played in several cases and returned to the state of "Hugo Lancaster ......", but overall it is still very good.

This is also the reason why Hugo is tired, and this kind of conversation is really hard.

"If you don't try like this, you can see it, and before it starts, it's already over." Hugo leaned back in his chair, feeling the softness of the leather wrapped in the sponge, relaxing his body and relaxing his 'spirit', "Every script and every role 'color', they have countless choices, there are 100,000 actors in Hollywood, no one is irreplaceable." ”

This is the status quo of Hollywood, but also the status quo of society as a whole, no one is irreplaceable, you have to rely on your own efforts to win your own position, otherwise life will soon overwhelm you. Unless you are willing to be like Tao Yuanming, "picking chrysanthemums and leisurely seeing the ...... of Nanshan under the east fence", you must work hard - of course, in modern society, even if you become Tao Yuanming, you need an economic foundation.

Although Nora did not make a decision on the spot today, Joseph could feel that Nora's opinion had changed because of Hugo's efforts, and this was a huge change, turning the impossible into a possibility, so the future is worth looking forward to.

Joseph suddenly felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, in fact, as an agent, what he could do was to get Hugo an audition, and then try his best to build a good relationship with the producer, and use his negotiation skills to get more benefits for Hugo, but there was not much he could do. But seeing Hugo working so hard, Joseph felt that he should do more, because he felt that Hugo deserved more.

Joseph and Hugo didn't say anything more, and the brand-new Renault space moved smoothly on the roads of Los Angeles, and the thick night 'color' passed through the car window, so that the car was filled with a quiet tranquility and stability, heading towards home. When he got home, Joseph found that Hugo had fallen asleep and that he was really tired.

Joseph did not rush to wake Hugo, but sat quietly in the car, sat for about twenty minutes, and waited until Hugo slowly woke up before he said, "If you are sleepy, go upstairs quickly, wash up and rest." ”

Hugo 'rubbed' his eyes, answered casually, dragged his heavy steps out of the car, and after returning to the third floor, Hugo washed up casually, fell on the 'bed', and fell asleep groggy.

This sleep went straight to the next morning, when Hugo woke up, the house was still empty, Charlize and Alex had not returned, but Hugo had already recovered, after all, acting was just a mental work, not a physical work, after a good night's sleep, he woke up, took a bath refreshed, and then began to look at the empty "dang" and "dang" refrigerator, thinking about what to eat for breakfast.

When Joseph came to the third floor, he saw Hugo standing in front of the refrigerator, gasping for breath and asking, "Forgot to go to the supermarket?"

In the past few days, Hugo has been staying here alone, so he didn't buy too much when he went to the supermarket, and there was no stock after eating this time, Hugo pouted, "Go in the afternoon, there are still two boxes of 'jade' rice chips in the cupboard." "When he closed the refrigerator door and looked back to see Joseph in sports clothes and sweating profusely, Hugo immediately laughed, "Uh, you have a date tonight?"

"Uh, no, I just want to get started." Joseph said with some breathlessness that he would never admit that he didn't sleep well last night because of stress, woke up early this morning, and finally decided to welcome the upcoming year l993 with a new attitude, and fitness is a good start - and at the same time, he can lose 'fat'.

Hugo was immediately amused by Joseph's words, and laughed haha, "Are you serious? Don't joke with me. "Joseph's body has always been on the fat side, especially in the past six months, it has become more obvious, six feet two inches (one meter eighty-eight) height is now at least two hundred and twenty pounds (one hundred kilograms), Hugo also teased Joseph before, saying that there are too many trips at the end of the year, and others have lost weight, but Joseph has increased his appetite because he is too hard, and he has gained weight instead.

As an actor, Hugo can't let his body shape change dramatically at will - unless it is needed for filming, even if Hugo is not an action actor like Arnold and Schwarzenegger, and he doesn't need to maintain his muscle 'flesh' line, but Hugo can't just eat the sea like this, so that his body shape will deviate too much, especially the two works of "Yihai Xiongfeng" and "Smell the Fragrance and Know the 'Woman'" both require Hugo to maintain his figure, plus sucking before. The poison guide zhì body is very bad, so Hugo has always insisted on exercising to maintain his health.

Joseph once tried to work out with Hugo, in fact, it was not fitness, it was just a half-hour run before going to bed at night, but Joseph only persisted for two days and gave up, and he was called "I'm not an actor".

So, seeing Joseph start exercising again today, Hugo's first reaction was to laugh, but seeing the depression on Joseph's face, Hugo quickly restrained his smile, "At least this is a good start, I said before, your height is less than one hundred and eighty pounds is healthy." Now that you're willing to work hard, that's great. ”

There are too many high-calorie junk foods in Western dietary habits, which leads many Westerners to be too large, especially after entering the 21st century, the proportion of 'fat' and obese children has risen rapidly, which has attracted the comprehensive attention of Western health scientists. Therefore, in Hugo's view, it may be difficult to change your eating habits, but at least it is necessary to stick to basic exercise and maintain good health.

Joseph looked at Hugo's smiling expression and knew that Hugo still had something to say, that is, "I don't know how long I can hold on......" Joseph glared at Hugo hatefully, and then walked to the table with the newspaper in his hand, "Here, this is today's 'Los Angeles Times' with good news on it." ”

Hugo didn't go to the newspaper, but hurriedly said, "Otherwise, when I go for a run in the future, you will be with you?" At the very least, there is one more companion, and maybe it can last a little longer. ”

Joseph remembered that Hugo ran unremittingly every day during the period when he was not filming, and there were some basic fitness movements, this perseverance is really admirable, but it also makes people increase the pressure, Joseph couldn't help but hesitate, "Forget it, I can't bear the rhythm and length of your running." ”

The smile on Hugo's face couldn't help but raise again, he knew that Joseph still flinched, so his smile couldn't help but be a little more playful, "You can adjust it according to your own situation, or ask a professional, you know, I'm not a professional fitness trainer." ”

When Joseph saw Hugo's banter, he knew that his thoughts had been seen through, his cheeks suddenly became hot, and he said with some annoyance, "Okay, just exercise with you, and it's not bad to have someone to urge each other." After speaking, he looked at Hugo with his neck stalked, showing his determination.

Now that you've decided to welcome the New Year with a new attitude, it's good to give yourself some more pressure and motivation. What's more, Hugo will definitely be busier in the following January, and the frequency of exercise will definitely not be so high, thinking of this, Joseph is a little relieved.

Hugo was not surprised by Joseph's answer at all, and nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's start tonight." At this point, Hugo paused, "Or do you start tomorrow, after all, you went for a run this morning?"

"Tonight!" Joseph barely rolled his eyes, and said categorically. Now Joseph and Hugo get along much more freely, compared to the situation in January this year, when he did not have too many expressions and was more strict, Joseph is a lot more "lively".

Hugo nodded approvingly. This was obviously an affirmative expression, but it was awkward to see it in Joseph's eyes, and his gaze couldn't help but look away in embarrassment.

Hugo decided not to 'tease' Joseph anymore and picked up the "Los Angeles Times" on the table: "So, what's the news today, you just said there is good news?"

"Oh yes, the Golden Globe nominees are out." Joseph hurriedly came back to his senses and said to Hugo.
