The comeback is 446 tenths
446 tenths of the comeback "Would you rather shave your head for a movie?" Quentin was surprised by this, although he was more inclined to let Hugo comb his back.
Imagine a retro gentleman, a handsome guy, elegantly completing the tasks of the underworld, this sense of contradiction and conflict knows the absurd effect, so that Quentin is a little impatient. Contradictions like this are everywhere in "vulgarity", such as Vincent's partner Jules, who has to recite the Bible before every killing, is such a contradictory detail, so Hugo's statement is exactly what Quentin wants. However, Quentin is still very curious that Hugo is willing to destroy his image for a movie, which is too rare.
Hugo shrugged his shoulders, "If I take this script...... "As an actor, his image on the big screen must be in the service of the movie, and the external things are actually part of the performance, Hugo does not have that unnecessary idol baggage - at least not now, and hopefully not in the future."
Quentin only reacted at this time, Hugo had not yet agreed to play "vulgar". So Quentin hurriedly asked, "So what do you think of this story?" Would you like to star in it? ”
Hugo looked up at Quentin's longing eyes and couldn't help but laugh again. Every time I talk to Quentin, I feel this way: his enthusiasm for movies is really admirable, and the enthusiasm for putting himself into movies makes people full of positive thoughts.
Quentin's earnest and sincere expression reminded Hugo of a behind-the-scenes 'tidbit' of "vulgarity": Uma Thurman originally refused to appear in this movie, and John Travolta was also very hesitant, but in the end they were persuaded by Quentin's enthusiasm, which created the classic "Vulgar".
Uma ...... Hugo actually forgot about jì, Uma is the "vulgar" 'female' protagonist, or maybe he didn't forget jì, but didn't think about it. Hugo originally thought that it was a very distant memory, but now that he looks back, it was actually the beginning of this year, and there was a 'confrontation' in June because of the hype, and the time did not pass as quickly as he imagined.
If Hugo takes over the "vulgar" script, and Uma also follows the historical trajectory to star, then they will be working together on the big screen for the first time? Hugo's first thought was if he and Uma greeted Uma when they met on set, would they get a response?
In Hollywood, there are countless cases where enemies are very angry when they see each other, there have been cases of big-name actors clearly refusing to cooperate with each other, thus directing the other party to be expelled from the crew, and there have also been cases of top actors putting pressure on the crew to achieve the goal of replacing actors, and of course, there have been cases of-for-tat parties completing cooperation in the crew......
Hugo is not a top name, even if he is, he has not thought of using his power to change actors, he does not think that he has the right to deprive another actor of his performance qualifications, not to mention that this actor is through his own efforts to win the role, even if this actor relies on unspoken rules to get to the top, even if this actor is his enemy, he will not do it.
Therefore, although it is Quentin who has been begging Hugo to play "vulgar", if Hugo puts forward that he does not want Uma to star, and comes up with high-sounding reasons such as "I don't want the hype between the two people to be in a big uproar", Quentin is also likely to agree. But Hugo is unwilling to do this, he would rather be a real villain than a hypocrite, and there is no need to 'make' these small actions behind his back.
In Hollywood, working with strangers of all kinds is the basic form of work, so it is not uncommon to meet someone who does not match your aura, and it is not uncommon to meet someone who has a holiday with you. If you find fault with each other and are unwilling to cooperate, then there is no way to carry out a lot of work, and it is even very likely that you will end up with no work at all in the future. This is true even for big-name actors, the first time the actor can play a big name to achieve his goal, but what about the second and third time? Even if it succeeds every time, it's not something to brag about.
Not only in Hollywood, but also in life, everyone will have people they hate, but not every time you can turn around and leave, life will not go your way. So, instead of running away, it's better to face it calmly.
How to deal with the work relationship with the object of your hatred, this is the only way in any workplace, do not bring your own 'private' personal feelings into the workplace, personal emotions are one thing, work is another thing, this is the professional attitude. Every crew is a workplace. Therefore, Hugo's first thought was not to avoid the problem, but how he should get along with Uma if he took the script.
The idea is very easy and easy, but Hugo knows that it is not so easy to practice, since the breakup of the two Golden Globes, except for the phone call from the Seattle crew, the two have not had any 'intersection', if you want to cooperate, this is not so simple.
But...... Uma is not something that Hugo needs to think about at the moment, because he has not yet taken the script of "vulgarity".
Hugo pressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, cast his eyes on the script on the left, then looked up at Quentin and said with a smile, "You haven't answered my original question yet." If the schedule allows, Hugo still hopes to star in the "vulgar" movie, and his inner desire is much stronger than in the previous "The Shawshank Redemption", but I don't know if it is because he likes the script more, or because nearly three months have passed, and the negative impact of A'mon' Goss has basically disappeared, or both.
Quentin knew that Hugo was talking about the issue of salary, and the things that should be faced would come sooner or later, and the salary was an unavoidable issue for actors to participate in performances. Quentin took a deep breath, "Three hundred thousand dollars." ”
Quentin looked at Hugo in front of him with a surprised expression, which made Quentin's heart tremble, in fact, he also knew that the price was really too low and too low, even lower than when Hugo starred in "Smell the Fragrance and Know the 'Woman'", and Hugo is the supporting role in "Smell the Fragrance and Know the 'Woman'", and the role of Hugo in "Vulgar" is the protagonist, and the salary of 300,000 US dollars is really not worth mentioning.
But Quentin has no choice, only has a budget of eight million dollars, he can only give Hugo such a salary at most, even if he knows that this salary is one-tenth of Hugo's salary during the "Righteous Sea Heroes" and "Sleepless Seattle" periods, and now Hugo is not the period after the Golden Raspberry Award, and he is not Steven Spielberg who can let Hugo star in "Schindler's List" for a million dollars, but Quentin still gritted his teeth and said his plan.
Harvey Weinstein said: The threshold of eight million is crucial for Hugo now, 300,000 dollars? Even if this script is 'colorful', it will be difficult to impress Hugo, because if this opportunity is missed, maybe Hugo will sink forever. Is "vulgar" worth Hugo's bet on his eleven years as an actor? Harvey is not hopeful, and Quentin wants to make a last-ditch effort.
Hugo is indeed very surprised, the experience of the past two years has given Hugo a certain understanding of the operation of Hollywood, aside from Hugo's soaring salary after "Sleepless in Seattle", even if only the three million dollars salary of "Righteous Sea Heroes" and "Seattle Sleepless Night" is concerned, this is Hugo's normal level, even after the fiasco of the three works before and after, even after experiencing the troubles of the Golden Raspberry Award, Hugo still has the level of three million US dollars. But now, Quentin has come up with a salary level of only one-tenth and invited Hugo to star in a movie, which is really unexpected.
But from a personal point of view, Hugo can understand. First, "vulgar" only costs eight million dollars, and the actor's salary is bound to be too high, Hugo estimates that even if it is the $300,000 salary, it is estimated that it is the price that Quentin gritted his teeth and shouted.
Second, his thoughts Harvey, Quentin, and Joseph can't understand, but in fact he is not worried at all that his salary will not go up after it falls, because "vulgar" is definitely a script worth the money, if Hugo is not mistaken, the global box office of this movie is more than 200 million US dollars.
Third, Hugo was overjoyed when he faced the 500,000 salary of "smelling the fragrance and knowing the 'woman'", and now the dividend of "Sleepless in Seattle" makes Hugo have no financial trouble in a short time, so the salary of 300,000 US dollars will naturally not be a problem.
Quentin looked at Hugo, but didn't wait for him to speak, and then said, "There is also a fifteen percent global box office dividend." "In fact, the so-called box office dividends for large-scale zuò movies are to let the actors share the box office pressure; But for an independent film like "Vulgar", it is actually to give the actor a small hope, which can be regarded as compensation for the low salary. In other words, it is to beg the actor to take the pen's dividend as a salary, and the actor has to take a big risk, because it is often difficult for independent films to achieve good box office results, and the hope is very slim.
Therefore, after Quentin said this, he had no confidence at all, he really felt that he had too few chips in his hand, and it was almost impossible for Hugo, who was now on a downhill career, to agree.
But a miracle happened, Hugo pursed his lips and nodded slightly, "I sound like a good proposal, we can talk about the details of the situation." This sentence made Quentin's cheeks stiffen suddenly, and then he 'revealed' a look of ecstasy, and his eyebrows began to fly directly.
Hugo also chuckled and continued, "But there are two problems," Quentin's joy immediately paused again, "You must contact my agent first to confirm my itinerary, because I don't know how to arrange the itinerary for album promotion and movie promotion." If there is a conflict in the itinerary, it is estimated that it will be more difficult to cooperate. ”
Quentin didn't mind at all, and nodded vigorously in affirmation. Hugo smiled and continued, "Also, I have to finish reading the script. ”
"Yes, script, yes! That's all that matters, yes, the script! The joy between Quentin's eyebrows was completely released, he knew that as long as Hugo was willing to read the script, it would mean half the success, and the remaining half, he would try his best to convince Hugo to nod!
