The comeback 412 is arguing again.

After hanging up Frank's phone, Hugo couldn't help but feel tired, and the good mood of walking in the afternoon sun dissipated.

Hugo didn't expect it to be like this. Frank had agreed with Hugo's idea of the script, and revised it, and 'handed over' the script to Joseph again, but Joseph was too busy to forget about it, so Frank waited left and right, without waiting for Hugo's response.

In desperation, Frank called Joseph again to urge, and Joseph, who had an assistant, received the call as soon as possible this time, but Hugo's mobile phone was in the suburbs for a few days, and there was no signal, so he was not contacted.

After that, the two sides reached an impasse over whether to negotiate the contract or the script first, and in the stalemate, Joseph once again did not give a positive response, apparently wanting to gain more advantage in the contract negotiations, which completely annoyed Frank. Although "The Shawshank Redemption" is a small production, he also sought cooperation for the sake of seeing that Hugo was indeed suitable for the role, but now it looks like Frank begging Hugo, this kind of big-name behavior coincides with the rumors at the beginning of the year, so Frank simply gave up Hugo.

After understanding what happened, Hugo expressed his apologies to Frank, on the one hand, he was on a road tour outside, and it was true that the contact between the director was not coherent, and the temporary problem with the mobile phone was also Hugo's problem in this regard; On the one hand, Hugo did not follow up on the situation in time and did not show enough sincerity, which is also disrespectful to Frank. So Hugo officially expressed his apologies.

This made Frank embarrassed, and he also recalled that Hugo was careful when he read the script, and if Hugo was not sincere enough, he would not have read the script over and over again. So, Frank expressed his understanding of Hugo's situation, and both sides had the intention of cooperating, but it was a pity that the 'yin' was wrong and missed this time, so he could only look forward to the opportunity to cooperate next time.

Here, Hugo learned that the crew had already signed with Tim Robbins, and signed the contract this morning. In other words, the chips that Lang brought today were indeed the pie in the painting.

After friendly talks, Hugo felt quite tired. Although Hugo also has his own reasons for missing "The Shawshank Redemption" this time, such as the problem of his mobile phone, such as the problem of running 'waves' on the journey, which is undeniable; But what really disappointed Hugo was Joseph's "busyness".

Joseph was able to get busy, which is something that should be celebrated, three actors were signed, and Hugo was happy for Joseph. But he is also an actor under Joseph, and this time he also worked "The Shawshank Redemption", but Joseph was negligent three times and twice because he was too busy, and finally made himself pass by with "The Shawshank Redemption". Although Hugo is not too sorry to miss this script, after all, there are many more works waiting for him after missing a good work, Hugo is still very disappointed, and he is disappointed by Joseph's work attitude.

If Joseph tried hard and followed up in time, but finally missed it, it was like the original "sugar-coated trap", and Hugo felt that there was no problem. But this time it was clearly not the case.

For example, Hugo now has a manager, and then relies on the manager to urge Joseph every day, so even if a work agreement is reached, it will not make people happy. Because Joseph is like a ploughing ox, with a whip and a step, such a cooperation without "excitement" seems to be forced, which is really disappointing.

Originally, Hugo thought that there was some special reason behind the "Shawshank Redemption", and thought that Yiqiē was just Lang's provocation, but now it seems that his trust in Joseph has not been reciprocated this time.

Sitting on the head of the 'bed' and thinking quietly for a while, Hugo still regained his 'spirits', he knew that Lang's flight to Philadelphia this time was definitely not so simple, although he still did not plan to cooperate with Lang, but he had to understand what was going on inside the company, and there was no news from Joseph recently

Because of his busyness, Hugo's current situation is very passive.

Hugo called Carl first, but unfortunately Carl's current position is still too low, and what he knows is only skin and skin; After a moment's hesitation, Hugo made another phone call to Rick Rosen, although Hugo knew that Rick was actually a businessman like Lang, but at least Rick still had a friendship. Sure enough, Rick didn't disappoint Hugo.

Recently, the company's co-president Marvin Josephson has been moving more and more frequently, and he has successfully poached two big-name artists from the company's partners, namely Julia Roberts and Paul McCartney, and Marven has also signed a group of potential newcomers, it can be seen that Marven is regaining control of the company faster and faster.

Prior to this, Marven had not managed the company's affairs for three years, which made the agents of Lang and Rick grow rapidly, but recently Marven seems to be dissatisfied with the stability of his retirement life, and plans to re-enter the mountain and regain control of the company he founded himself. Since then, everyone at the top of the hierarchy, such as Long and Rick, has been in danger.

Julia was originally an artist in Rick's hands, but was poached by Marven, Rick is already a very tolerant personality, but he still can't help but have a head-on conflict with Marven in the conference room, this news was revealed by Carl to Hugo, Rick himself is still tight-lipped No wonder Lang can't bear it.

At present, the power struggle within the company is becoming more and more 'intense', in fact, it has an impact on the actors, but it is not very strict, and the main impact is the agent. Hugo can find some information from Rick's words just now: the company may split.

If the company does break up, the impact will be far-reaching. At that time, the situation of the actors will also fall into a short period of 'chaos' and 'chaos', and the agent will inevitably experience a reshuffle.

It is worth mentioning that Joseph has recently become the object of contention among all parties, although Joseph can only be regarded as a newcomer to the industry, and his two-year experience in the industry is not worth mentioning in front of others, but Joseph personally brought Hugo to the peak, and also signed Nicolas Cage, which makes Joseph also have enough chips to become a player, although only a small player.

This is the biggest reason why Joseph has been so busy lately. Recently, two newcomers have taken up a small part of Joseph's time, and Nicholas is choosing a script, and he arrives at the company every day to supervise, so that Joseph spends most of his time 'spending' on choosing new works for Nicholas; And most importantly, the rest of the time Joseph spent all his time in the social club, from Monday to Saturday, with almost no interruption.

In Joseph's busy time, Hugo, who left Los Angeles and traveled all over the world, naturally had no place.

Thinking of this, Hugo couldn't help but feel a little bitter in his mouth, could it be that Joseph is a friend who can share sorrows and sorrows?

Just as Hugo was thinking, the mobile phone on the sofa suddenly rang, interrupting Hugo's thoughts, he lazily dragged his body over, picked up the phone, the current mobile phone has no caller ID, so it is impossible to tell whose call it is, so Hugo directly picked up the phone, Joseph's voice immediately came.

"Hugo, hey, Anna told me that you called, what's wrong, is there anything urgent?" Joseph had just come out to drink water, but he accidentally learned the news and immediately called Hugo. Busy is busy, Joseph has always cared about Hugo.

Hugo 'rubbed' his own temples, he and Joseph had always been straightforward in their conversations before, but today he hesitated, he began to have scruples, the cooperation between the two has been smooth, but now he has scruples, it's really bitter. But Hugo finally decided that it would be better to be more direct, "'The Shawshank Redemption, the project has officially signed Tim Robbins. ”

"What?" Joseph looked surprised, he apparently didn't get the message, "Oh God, Hugo, sorry, I'm too busy to get the news. You wait, I'll call Frank right away, how is that possible. Joseph knew that he and Hugo had an argument over this last time, so he immediately realized that the situation was not good when he heard Hugo's words.

Hugo interrupted Joseph, "No, I called Frank and he told me about the situation. He revised the script before, but he didn't get a reply from me, and then he urged it several times, but he couldn't reach a communication, so he chose other actors. ”

"Shit is definitely not like that." Joseph was also anxious, and immediately explained, "He did give me the script, and I wanted to hand it to you, but your mobile phone couldn't get through for a few days, so it was put on hold for the time being." I later suggested that we could negotiate the contract first and then the script, but Frank was reluctant to ......"

"Yes, I know what you're talking about." Hugo spoke.

Hugo's voice made Joseph uneasy for a while, it was calm with a little disappointment, although Joseph didn't know Hugo for a long time, but they have been together almost every day in the past two years, so he knows Hugo very well, especially Hugo, who has changed dramatically in the past year, such Hugo is really uneasy.

"Hugo, listen to me, I really took the initiative to communicate with Frank, but I didn't get the answer I wanted." Listening to Joseph's words, Hugo was disappointed, because Joseph was shirking responsibility, he didn't mention that he missed the script reply time because he was busy, and he didn't mention that he had been getting the script for nearly ten days and Hugo had not received the script so far...... This is not the Joseph that Hugo knew.

"Hugo, I think this is a verbal agreement, so I'd like to get you more paid, but Frank ...... He ...... "Joseph was also in a hurry, and his speech was no longer as calm as usual, "Hugo, in this way, I will make a call to Frank, you wait for me, you wait for my call." After speaking, Joseph didn't wait for Hugo's reply, and hung up the phone directly.
