Later, it was discussed why people's memories are forever fixed on Baggio's melancholy back, is it because it is the most shocking, as if comedy can never compare to the "classics" of tragedy?

There is no one exact answer to this, as if the "God of War" one (gabriel. Batistita) after exiting the group stage and shed heroic tears, that scene is forever frozen in the memories of countless fans, and it is difficult to explain whether it was because it was the last World Cup match for Batistuta or because it remembered that the mighty Argentina had not been able to win the World Cup since 1986.

But for Hugo, the incomplete perfection is unforgettable, but he admires Baggio's temperament that is difficult to replicate and match, maybe Baggio's career is difficult to call perfect, but imperfection does not mean that it is not the best, as a person, as an ordinary player, his temperament, his skills, his character has conquered the fans and illuminated the Apennines.

In fact, Baggio and Hugo regard the idol of Kurt Warner has many similarities, their careers are full of ups and downs, and their careers are not the most brilliant, Baggio is to football, Warner is to rugby, in fact, they are not the greatest players in history, and even far from the title of "greatest", but their personal temperament makes them destined to be different.

What determines the success of a life journey is not honor, not money, not reputation, but whether you do your best, whether you enjoy it, and whether you feel happy. The definition of success should not be formulated by others, but should be set by oneself.

Whether before or after the crossing, Hugo's life was not smooth, and in the eyes of many people, it was not successful. Before the crossing, ten years of hard work in the circle still achieved nothing, which in the eyes of the eyes is simply a squander of life, which is irresponsible to parents, family, and society, and is also irresponsible to oneself; After the crossing, the climb of the actor's career in the previous ten years ended up in the end, which is completely a futile struggle in the eyes of people, it is simply a hopeless career, and all the efforts are just dying and struggling.

In difficult times, Hugo often thought about giving up, but in the end he persevered, not for success, but because this was the life he wanted. In Hugo's view, no matter whether life is successful or not, and no matter where life ends up, at least he should have one persistence, even if the result of persistence is nothing; At least one's choice should be what you want, not what society generally thinks; At least one of your goals should be what you like, rather than simply obeying and blindly following them.

Rather than doing nothing, it is better to accomplish nothing clearly. At least, at the end of his life, he knows that this is his choice, this is his own persistence, and this is his own happiness.

It's a persistence, it's a passion, it's even stupidity. So when Hugo saw Kurt Warner sitting in the draft in a confused figure, he felt the same way; So when Hugo saw Robert and Baggio standing in place with his hands folded, he burst into tears. Once upon a time, he stood at the crossroads of life, why wasn't it so?

The curtain is over, just like the trajectory of history, it is still Brazil that won the championship, or Italy who unfortunately lost, or Baggio's melancholy back. It's just that this time Hugo witnessed this moment at the scene, and he felt the madness of half fire and half sea at the scene.

"We are champions! We are champions!" Pedro's exuberant scream made the smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth helplessly outlined, and then he watched Pedro standing in front of Hugo, twisting his ass triumphantly, and constantly shouting, "We are champions!" Hugo finally couldn't help it and laughed.

Hugo had known about this result for a long time, but he still chose to support Italy, so this situation is not uncommon now, and Hugo does not want to ruin Pedro's celebration of the championship, so he will pretend to be fierce and wave his fist, "Defeated fans don't know when to lose their minds!"

directly scared Pedro into taking half a step back, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

Hugo left the Rose Bowl without any hindrance, and this time no fans recognized him. Because the Brazilian fans were in a state of euphoria, Brazil became the first team in the world to win the quadruple, which was enough to make them party all night; The Italian fans, on the other hand, were very frustrated, some still singing and cheering for the players inside the stadium, while others left the Rose Bowl with a dull pace.

Therefore, Hugo and his party quickly left the stadium with the crowd.

However, the celebratory crowds along the way made it very difficult for them to get out of Pasadena, and it took nearly 90 minutes to see Santa Monica Boulevard after what was supposed to be a 30-minute drive.

Back in Los Angeles, Samora sent the members home one by one, and then drove Forge and Hugo back to Sunset Square. After a long tour, they finally found time to relax and rest.

Hugo went back to bed. After sleeping in a daze for more than an hour, he woke up, looked at the sky outside, the night had fallen, and when he walked out of the room, he saw that the lights were bright, Joseph, Henry, and Rick were sitting around the dining table, discussing something, Joseph was the first to notice Hugo's movement, and asked in a loud voice, "Hungry?"

Hugo nodded, walked towards the kitchen, poured himself a cup of coffee, and Joseph spoke, "Samora has gone to the supermarket and will be back in a moment, if you are hungry, there is pizza in the fridge." Then he went back and continued the discussion with Henry and Rick, "So you're saying we don't have a lot of room to maneuver on the second album?"

Henry nodded, "The contract was originally stipulated, two albums in three years." However, the current situation is also in the stage of tug-of-war with each other, so I can't say for sure. At this time, Henry was still the same lazy appearance of ignorance, and he almost didn't lie down at the table and chatted, and his speech was very concise, and he didn't want to go into more detail at all. However, Joseph and Rick don't need to explain, they easily understand.

Hugo knew they were talking about the second album, although according to the contract, the second album of Glory to Death could be released before October 1996, which was not a violation of the contract; But EMI Records also made it clear in the contract that the release plan of the first two albums must follow their arrangement, which is also a hard clause for the record company to protect its own rights and interests: if the first album fails, the second album will be postponed indefinitely; On the contrary, if the first album is successful, how to operate the second album to maximize profits is also a consideration for the record company.

So the current situation is that EMI Records hopes to release a second album as much as possible, and this summer Hugo's momentum is too great, and if you strike while the iron is hot, the probability of success will skyrocket, and as time progresses, the follow-up influence will gradually decline, and the uncertainty will increase.

But the problem is that EMI Records doesn't want to fall out with Glory to the Death, and they don't want to kill the chickens and eggs, and they may still be seeking a contract for a third album, so they put pressure on Henry on the one hand, but on the other hand, they don't explicitly talk to the band members. At the same time, the surrounding interests of glory to death have begun to be sought behind them.

Henry's ability is even stronger than Hugo imagined, and he can deal with EMI Records for so long, and the band doesn't know at all, if it weren't for Columbia Pictures today, it is estimated that Henry still has no intention of suing Hugo, and he can intercept the problem himself. As for Columbia Pictures, since it involved the film part, it was not good for Henry to cut off the connection completely, which was beyond his scope of work, and then Joseph was informed.

Hugo walked to the table with his coffee, "We can start work on the second album next week, I guess ......" Hugo pondered for a while, "It can be completed at the end of the month, and we still have two or three songs left to finish." It shouldn't be too difficult, though. "

"What about propaganda?" Henry's eyes picked lazily.

Hugo pouted, "You can do it yourself, Joseph and Rick are here anyway." Hugo is now willing to believe in Henry's abilities, which is the trust he deserves, at least for the entire promotional period of "almost fame", Henry has not had any problems, and there has been no conflict between his own music and film schedules.

Henry pursed his lips and didn't speak, his eyelids slowly drooped again, and from his fleeting gaze, he knew that he must be counting Baidai Records again. In fact, there has not been much publicity for Glory to Death, in addition to Hugo's personal reasons, the most important thing is that Neil and Fokine are not too keen on publicity.

Now, EMI Records is begging for glory to die and release a second album quickly, but they don't know that Hugo promised to complete it at the end of the month, maybe this can be a bargaining chip for EMI Records to make concessions in the next promotional arrangements, after all, the original contract also stipulated that publicity and distribution matters are still dominated by EMI Records. Now that Henry has more bargaining chips, he naturally has to plan carefully.

Hugo and Henry's communication was just a few words, Rick saw that they were finished, and turned his head to look at Hugo, "Joe told me about Mark and Luc today, and you agreed to the ending song of the movie?"

"Nope." Hugo didn't know much about these things, but he also knew that there was room for everything, "I said I had to come back and talk to my team-mates and get him in touch with Henry. "

Rick breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that he still had enough room to maximize the benefits, he turned back to exchange glances with Henry, and then looked back again, "That's good, you haven't finished recording that song yet, right?" You ask Joe to give me an approximate time frame for the recording to be completed tomorrow, and I'll leave the rest to Henry and me, and we'll contact Joe if there's something to do. "

Hugo shrugged his shoulders, he didn't have the energy to take care of these chores even if he wanted to, and it was great that Rick and Henry could handle them.

Rick didn't go any further on the issue, "Joe also said about Columbia's current attitude, do you have any ideas?" (To be continued).
