008 dotted relationships

Ignoring the two clowns behind him, Hugo took two steps forward, but his footsteps soon stopped, for the other actors on either side of the corridor did not speak again, but quietly looked at Hugo with a vague gaze, as if Hugo had done something shocking - in fact, Hugo's behavior at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood last night was indeed horrifying, and this gaze made Hugo feel as if he had been stripped of his clothes.

Hugo looked down at himself, made sure that the light gray shirt and khaki cargo pants on his body were still there, pulled the strap of his pants - this is the clothes specially prepared for the character of Paul in "Big River Love", and then pretended to be calm and walked to the side, picked up a newspaper on the newsstand, leaned against the wall and began to read.

Originally, Hugo wanted to look for the location of the reception room, but he thought that everyone was waiting in the corridor, so he found his own corner in the corridor. After Hugo began to read the newspaper as if no one was around, the silence in the corridor was once again broken by the low sound of discussion, and everyone's vague afterglow continued to be projected on Hugo, allowing Hugo to experience first-hand what it means to be like a man's back.

In the past, the members of the band Honor to Death would gather together to discuss what it would be like to be in the limelight and in the limelight, and Hugo thought it would be a wonderful taste - he had experienced it last night, but now it seems that the focus is not all good.

Hugo forced himself to focus on the newspaper and stop paying attention to other people's gossip, but when he saw the front page of the newspaper in his hand, Hugo couldn't help but laugh dumbly, this newspaper was the "Los Angeles Times" - yes, this is Los Angeles, and the newspaper with the largest circulation is naturally the "Los Angeles Times". And today's front page of the Los Angeles Times is the 12th Golden Raspberry Awards.

The photo on the front page is Hugo holding the golden raspberry trophy, and the tearful wolf bèi looks like even the winner of the Oscar, which is really funny with the black bold words of the "Los Angeles Times" "Thank you, dreams come true". Even Hugo himself couldn't help but laugh when he looked at this photo.

The Golden Raspberry Award is an interesting translation, "raspberry" is actually raspberry, which means "rude, irreverent" in slang, from the phrase "blowing." a。 raspberry", which means a bit of applause, refers to making a mocking sound, specifically by putting the tongue between the lips and blowing it to make the tongue tremble and make a sound. The full name of the Golden Raspberry Award is "golden." razzie。 awards", which is not found in the general dictionary, comes from the word "razz", which is a variant of smacking, mocking, and denoting the same action. Therefore, the Golden Raspberry Award is not an "award" at all, but a mockery. The Golden Raspberry Award trophy is such a sour berry with a mocking meaning.

In the history of the Golden Raspberry Awards until 2014, the actors who were willing to attend the award ceremony to "accept the award" could be counted on one hand, because this is a shame, and no one wants to be the winner of the "Worst Acting Award". In this way, Hugo's gratitude last night seemed all the more ridiculous, and it was no wonder that the reaction was so violent.

Look at the media represented by the Los Angeles Times, look at the cynicism of the two stones and wood just now, and look at the whispered discussion that everyone is now locking on to Hugo...... Originally, Hugo saw that the reporter did not embarrass himself too much last night, and thought that the impact of the incident was not so strict, but apparently reality ruthlessly shattered Hugo's dreams, and even the negative impact was beyond Joseph's imagination.

Hugo let out a long breath, and although he had decided to adapt to his current status and do his best to seize the opportunity to cross this time, the road was long and difficult, and Hugo felt that the advantage of crossing from 2014 to 1992 seemed less obvious.

Flipping through the front pages, Hugo tried to find the breath of the 90s in today's "Los Angeles Times", the severe economic crisis in the United States that began in the mid-80s has been spreading, and the unemployment problem of white-collar workers has brought Hollywood's song and dance to a new level; The collapse of the Soviet Union was announced on Christmas Day at the end of last year, and the resulting turmoil is still affecting the political landscape of the world. Add to this the independence of the countries of Eastern Europe, the reunification of Germany, the demand of the Arabs and Israelis for direct negotiations...... Hugo finally had a sense of the nineties, the twenty-first century before he had traveled, as if it were centuries ago, but now it was so real in the newspaper in Hugo's hands.

When seeing George W. Bush (Gee. Bush) and William Clinton (William. Hugo couldn't help but laugh, George Bush won the Gulf War to seek re-election, and William Clinton played the economic card to seek re-election, and the rivalry between the two men has only just begun. It turned out that 1992 was a presidential election year, and it was a really lively year.

"Hugo, you're here." Joseph's voice interrupted Hugo's reading.

Raising his head, Hugo found that most of the eyes around him were withdrawn, but there were still some people who kept looking at Hugo with playful eyes. At this time, Hugo was already much calmer, and even he couldn't help laughing when he thought of last night's troubles, so he couldn't blame others, "It's done?" ”

Joseph gave a perfunctory "en", and then quickly continued, "Today is an open audition, not a one-on-one interview with the director, you must not play a big temper and do what they instruct." Remember, this opportunity is important to you, and you must work hard. As for Brad Pitt or something, don't worry about it, be yourself, okay? ”

Hugo opened his mouth to defend himself, saying that he would not play a big name, but soon realized that Joseph's worries must have been a lesson from the past, and he nodded obediently, so as not to be exposed. So, Hugo nodded, "I see." ”

"I just went to inquire, and today director Robert didn't come, only casting director Elizabeth was there, and the screen actors guild came with Jon Hartman. hutman)。 Joseph quickly explained, while looking around at the other actors who pricked up their ears to inquire for news, this is the difference between having an agent, and the agent's connections are very important to the actor.

"Elizabeth's liking is Kevin Kostner. er) such tough guys, 'Dances with wolves (dah. wolvers)' and 'bodyguards (the. Bodyguard)' is all her casting director. So, in a sense, she won't care too much about your golden raspberries. Joseph's voice was low and fast, and for Hugo, who had just crossed over, he couldn't digest it at the first time, and he could only force himself to memorize it rigidly.

Speaking of this, Joseph lowered his head and patted Hugo's abdomen hard, which startled Hugo, and involuntarily suffocated his abdominal muscles, and then heard Joseph lower his voice and said, "You will go and sit a few sit-ups later, and hold your abdominal muscles out." ”

"Are you making me ......" Hugo blurted out in surprise, not saying the rest of the words, just tugging at his shirt. Hugo knew that there are unspoken rules in any industry, and Hollywood is no exception, but he didn't expect that Hollywood was not an "uncovered" rule at all, but put this qiē on the table.

Hugo's surprise made Joseph look at him in surprise, he frowned and looked at Hugo as if he was looking at a stranger, "Why are you like a different person after yesterday." The words suddenly made Hugo close his mouth directly, "It's not the first time for you." The second sentence left Hugo speechless.

"Jon is an old friend, but ......" Joseph said next, but he swallowed the following words before he opened his head, and looked at Hugo meaningfully, so that Hugo, who didn't know why, thought that he was exposed again, and drifted his gaze directly away in a daze, "Anyway, you can do it yourself." ”

After explaining, Joseph pulled the script from Hugo's right hand, "Do you need me to help you play?" Which part did you just rehearse? ”

Hugo still knows this, there are many possibilities for participating in auditions, but for actors who get the script, they will prepare a performance of the content of the script, and whether it will be used at that time depends on the interviewer's preference, "No, I'm ready." It's not that Hugo doesn't want Joseph's help, it's that he hasn't digested Joseph's long passage yet, and he needs a little time.

As the silence fell, the memories in Hugo's mind began to be gradually awakened by Joseph's words just now. Elizabeth Rusty is today's casting director, and with a representative of the Screen Actors Guild who attends to defend the interests of the actors - that is, Jon Hartman, this is what the interviewers are made of. This is also the reason why the unspoken rules of Hollywood are very scarce now, and the existence of the actors' union can protect the interests of the actor group to the greatest extent.

Elizabeth Rusty is very fond of actors like Kevin Costner, who won the Oscar for Best Director for his debut film "Dances with Wolves", but he is also known for "Robin, the Prince of Thieves." hood:prince。 of。 thieves)" and was shortlisted for the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actor, "Unfortunately" lost to Hugo this time. So Elisabeth Rusti probably won't care too much about Hugo's Golden Raspberry Award, and her preferences are obvious - strong chest muscles, well-defined abdominal muscles and heroic spirit, that's probably it.

As for Jon Hartmann, the agent representative of the Screen Actors Guild, he was the union representative when Hugo starred in "Fatal Moment" and "Hudson's Eagle" auditions before - Hugo only realized at this time that this body had actually played many leading actors in big productions before, so Hugo and Jon are also acquaintances. But why did Joseph still say a "but" twist, and still stop talking? Is there anything greasy in this!

"Hugo Lancaster." The call of the staff was heard, interrupting Hugo's thoughts, and he quickly stood up straight from his comfortable position leaning against the wall.
