Thinking of Tracy and Brad's attitude just now, Joseph couldn't help clenching his fists, especially Brad, because of the head-on competition between Brad and Hugo, so Joseph was also very sensitive to this, "That Brad looks like he is winning, it's really ......" Joseph didn't say the next words, but began to grit his teeth, and could even hear the sound of bones wriggling.

"Hugo, if it really is. Schindler's List... What to do? Joseph recalls the difficulties he has faced in the past month or so, although he has worked hard and made great progress, as evidenced by the fact that Hugo received the dividends of "Sleepless in Seattle", Joseph knows that if Tracy relies on "Schindler's List" to succeed, then Hugo's resistance may increase exponentially.

Hugo's concerns should be a little more serious than Joseph's, because he was well aware of the enormous influence of "Schindler's List", and Steven Spielberg's influence throughout the eighties and nineties should not be underestimated.

But Hugo inexplicably has a sense of relief, perhaps because he knows the arduousness of the difficulty, and after breaking through a critical point, he is not worried, as if "lice don't bite if they have more debts". Of course, it may not be accurate to describe it this way, but Hugo did think so in his heart, since Tracy's confrontation could no longer be avoided, then he faced difficulties head-on, as if he had just 'confronted' head-on, and fought with Tracybo

"What are we going to do? Think about what to eat for dinner? One of Hugo's jokes made Joseph roll his eyes, causing Hugo to laugh, "Joe, you are impulsive, if you have this level of concern about your weight, you can definitely lose weight." ”

"I've lost weight," Joseph glared at once, but was defeated by Hugo's playful gaze, "though only six pounds (less than three kilograms)......"

"That's because you didn't eat dinner." Hugo's complaint made Joseph have a black line, but he couldn't refute it, he could only look depressed, Hugo knew that Joseph was also worried about himself, so he didn't continue to joke, but said lightly, "I know you're worried, but a lot of times, worrying not only doesn't solve the problem, but also makes the problem worse, doesn't it?" ”

In fact, everyone understands the truth about this, but it is not so easy to really do it. Hugo also experienced the Golden Globe incident, and then gradually learned this truth.

"Actually, it's not difficult for you to beat up Brad, it's easier to punch Tracy twice, and I believe that her counterattack will not hurt anyone." Hugo's straightforward words made Joseph smile helplessly, and at this time Joseph also calmed down, he understood what Hugo meant, and nodded his chin lightly.

This is a society with a legal system, it is illegal to beat people at will, and murder is even more punishable, so it may be very relieving to punch the 'meat', but this is a strategy to kill the enemy by killing 1,000 and self-inflicting 800. What's more, the confrontation between Tracy and Hugo is not the pain of the skin and flesh of the body at all, but more of a confrontation at the level of the 'spirit'. So, to really fight Tracy, you have to solve the problem from the essence.

So, what is the essence of Tracy and Hugo's confrontation?

"Have you ever wondered why Tracy always wanted to be. Schindler's list, one of them? Hugo had a lot of thoughts on his head, and he needed to speak out and discuss it with Joseph, and then put the whole situation in order, "Actually, this movie is not favored by the industry, is it?" Several big directors think that there is no way to shoot this work well, the script has been changed four times, and there is no definite news until now, let alone the actors. Speaking of this, Hugo paused, "Of course, judging from Brad's situation today, maybe the actor is starting to audition." ”

Joseph groaned slightly, "I know what you mean. "Schindler's List" is currently in the eyes of industry insiders, in fact, it is a five-to-five proposal, and even the possibility of failure is even higher, which is also the fundamental reason why Steven Spielberg has not 'made' a name for ten years, World War II, Nazis, and Jews are too heavy and profound, and it is not so easy to really shoot the taste.

So, "Schindler's List" is a veritable hot potato. So what is the reason why Tracy is willing to take the initiative to move forward? If it is optimistic that Steven can make this story successful, this is certainly one of the reasons, but it is not enough. So, the answer came out quickly.

"Tracy is here to build a network," Joseph began, "Steven takes this script so seriously, and it took ten years to 'spend' the effort to make it, and if Tracy can contribute, it would be normal to get Steven's gratitude." The answer came naturally.

Hugo was a little stunned, he hadn't thought of this part yet, but Joseph was right, Hugo couldn't help but nodded, "You're right, in fact, I originally wanted to say that Tracy may have seen the possibility of success in this script, just like in a Las Vegas casino, Tracy thought that the story of World War II Jews could produce a successful chemistry when it met Spielberg, the most famous Jewish director at the moment, so she decided to make a bet, and almost all of the bets were pressed down." ”

If Hugo is not mistaken, Tracy has been actively planning since February last year, and "Schindler's List" is also the project she has put the most 'effort' into, and this bet is naturally very weighty.

Joseph and Hugo naturally look at the problem from different angles due to their different positions, but he stands in the position of an agent, and he is indeed more experienced than Hugo, so he quickly reacted, "You mean, Tracy is like copying Steven to rely on. Great white shark, the road to fame? ”

Hugo nodded in agreement, and Joseph couldn't help but ponder.

In fact, Hugo's idea is very reasonable. In the entertainment industry, connections, qualifications, talents, appearance, rules, etc. are all conditions for success, but in fact, they can be summed up in one word, that is, "works". Actors, directors, screenwriters, producers, and agents are all the same, no matter what their own conditions are, only by participating in the production of "colorful" works, proving themselves again and again, and gradually being accepted and liked by professionals by the audience, with the increase in popularity, the power will become greater and greater.

In this process, in fact, the so-called connections, qualifications, or their own conditions, opportunities, etc., all revolve around the work. Like Steven, relying on the "Great White Shark" to land on the front line in an instant, there are countless things, without connections, it will automatically generate connections, and if there is no qualification, it will accumulate investment experience, and it will become insignificant without its own internal conditions.

In fact, Hugo himself is no stranger to this kind of experience. The success of the "Dead Poets Society" led to the premiere of a series of films and "The Last Premiere", and the appearance of "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the 'Woman'" brought the opportunity of "Yihai Xiongfeng", and the conscientiousness of "Yihai Xiongfeng" built a bridge to "Sleepless in Seattle". After the success of "Smell the Fragrance and Know the 'Woman'" and "The Heroic Wind of the Righteous Sea", Hugo's status in the whole Hollywood has been improved.

Therefore, the work is the foundation. The reason why Tracy was so eager for "Schindler's List" was because of this, and once the work was a success, all the problems were solved.

"So according to you, the success of the work is the way to fight Tracy?" Joseph's brow still didn't unravel, Hugo nodded, and said, "It's a foundation," but Joseph shook his head, "But now it's very difficult for us to get an audition." ”

"But we got it. Seattle sleeps at night, ah. Hugo did not lose confidence, "We all know that Tracy can't take care of the corners, she doesn't have that much power, even Spielberg doesn't have the ability." So, what we need to do is to work tirelessly to find opportunities, wait for the next opportunity to arise, and then seize the opportunity to turn around."

Hugo immediately felt that his thinking was clear, in fact, this is the same reason as him in the crew of "Yihai Xiongfeng", in the entertainment industry, works and strength are the last word, and only after having excellent works and outstanding strength can they have the right to speak and seek the next step of development.

"How do we make sure that every opportunity is a real opportunity and not another one. Hudson's Eagle,. Joseph let out a long sigh of relief, and after understanding what Hugo meant, his thoughts became clearer, but he still hesitated.

Hugo once again 'revealed' a confident smile that reassured Joseph, "Joe, this is how we grew up, you and I have to learn how to recognize the good and bad of the script, even if it is the CEO of Hollywood's top film company or the top producer, they can't be sure that every work is successful, why should we be so strict with ourselves?" ”

"Because we don't have much room to back down?" Joseph pouted.

Hugo couldn't help laughing, "I know what you mean, so what we need is not impulsive or afraid, but focus, keep learning and working hard, learn to judge each script with the right eye, and then slowly 'grope' out my own path of actor development." ”

"Then rely on the success of the work, so as to gain the right to speak in front of Tracy, and even have the upper hand......" Joseph continued to follow Hugo's words, although his eyes were still very worried, but the smile on the corner of his mouth bloomed helplessly.

Hugo shrugged, "Of course, the work is our bargaining chips, and we already have two chips in our hands now, so we don't necessarily fall far behind Tracy." The current difficulties are only temporary, and there is no need for us to lose faith. ”

Joseph exhaled again, expelling all the stuffy air from his chest, "That's right...... If you can star. Schindler's list, that's good. ”

"Ha, there is more than one really good script, why do you keep entangled here, your vision is so narrow." Hugo was amused by Joseph's sighing expression, but after laughing, Hugo couldn't help but restrain his smile, and his heart couldn't help but longing for Joseph's thoughts just now: Yes, if that's really the case, that's really a good thing.
