Alex is about five feet ten inches (one meter seven. 8) Around, the figure is slightly thin, and the facial features are not the type of knife and axe, but the cute doll always has a smile on its face, which makes it easy for people to have a good impression.

"So you're saying that you left your bank job because I fell in love with acting and came to Los Angeles to pursue acting opportunities?" Hugo looked at Alex, who was excited in front of him, and said in disbelief.

Alex still couldn't suppress his excitement at this time, he sat a full five steps away from Hugo, as if he was worried that getting too close would wake up the dream, and the joy between his eyebrows overflowed, more dazzling than the gesture of hand and foot, "Yes." We always have to try something completely new, don't we? A life is so short, and it would be pitiful if there was no real dream. ”

Hugo admires Alex, although he ran away from home with his band mates, this walk was ten years, but at that time they were young and frivolous children, just with a lot of enthusiasm, in the time of crawling in society, if Hugo said that he never regretted it was absolutely a lie, he even thought more than once, he followed the pace of his family to live a much easier life.

Alex in front of him is different, he gave up his stable job in the bank, resolutely left his hometown, and devoted himself to an illusory career as an actor. This kind of courage is not something that everyone can have. What's even more surprising is that Alex was actually inspired by Hugo - Hugo, who can only be regarded as a second-tier actor in Hollywood, is almost unbelievable.

This is the first time that Hugo has become curious about his predecessor, you can imagine how talented his predecessor was, and created a world of his own in the career of an actor, he could soar at any time, he is not only a vase, but also has unlimited acting potential, if he is given enough time, maybe he can become a great top actor. But the fetters of life cut off a possibility.

"So have you found the right job now?" Hugo looked at Alex in front of him, who was sunny and honest, and it was easy to have a good impression of him, this is a very amiable teenager, and his smile can easily make people let down their guard.

Alex shrugged helplessly, but still had a smile on his face, and there was no look of frustration, "I haven't worked in two months." I've played small roles in some TV series before, such as 'Detective Hunter' and 'SWAT 4587 (WiseGuy)', but then it's gone, does it mean that they are not satisfied with my performance? ”

Looking at Alex's vivid expression, Hugo was directly amused, he also experienced it from this stage, but the supporting role or the dragon set does not have much value for the crew, even if you play this time, but the next time you change an actor will not have any effect, because it doesn't require too much acting skills, just find someone to play. Therefore, if you want to get more opportunities, you must have a good relationship with the crew, producers, screenwriters, field affairs, etc., so that you will have the opportunity to play again in the future, which is also a breeding potential. Hotbed of rules. Opportunity is too important for new actors.

"Maybe your acting style is too trendy and they don't understand it." Hugo said seriously, Alex was still thinking about it seriously, but Joseph, who was standing next to him, was smiling until his stomach hurt. "Oh, by the way, I live in that room, no problem, right?"

"Of course, of course." Alex immediately jumped to his feet, like a spring, and ran into the hallway inside, shouting, "It's just across from the bathroom, but it's not damp and it's very well lit." "I tried my best to recommend this room to Hugo.

Hugo pursed his lower lip, nodded slightly, and thought seriously, and then said to Joseph, "Should I worry about him pounce on him at night?" ”

This stern question almost didn't make Joseph squirt, "You pack your luggage here, I'll go upstairs first, Carl is about to come over." Joseph patted Hugo on the shoulder, showing a "good luck" expression, and then walked away from the third floor with a pace.

"Hugo, do you need some furniture? I know there's a second-hand furniture market around here, and there's a lot of ...... stuff" Alex came out of the house again, and stood in the hallway and asked Hugo in a loud voice, but only halfway through his sentence, his voice stopped, and asked with some hesitation, "Or would you rather buy brand new furniture?" ”

Alex actually thought that what he liked didn't mean that Hugo liked it, maybe even if Hugo lived in a shared apartment, he still had to stick to his protagonist posture, for example, if the furniture should be new and luxurious, then his kindness might become Hugo's burden, which made Alex hesitate.

Hugo looked at Alex's sincere and apprehensive expression, and showed a big smile, "Second-hand furniture is a very good choice, I need to buy a lot of things, I may have to go to this market several times." If you have time, you can take me once, and I can go by myself after I know the way. ”

Sharing a room means that you have to face the problem of roommate relationship, although it is not necessary that the roommate will become a best friend, but at least do not blindly be self-centered, because living in a space, more or less will encounter differences in living habits, if you do not know how to compromise and adapt, then sharing will only be a disaster.

Alex's friendliness and warmth, though a little overly welcoming, made Hugo feel unrepulsive, and he was willing to show his friendliness.

Sure enough, hearing Hugo's affirmative answer, the smile on Alex's face immediately bloomed, "Don't worry, you have to go a few times, I can accompany you, and I can help you move some heavy objects." Alex's worry just now was only for a moment, and he quickly regained his usual sunny and cheerful personality, "Come on, you see what you need in the room, oh yes, and the hall and kitchen, there is so little furniture here now, we can make a list and go to the market together to buy it." ”

Just as Hugo was thinking about what furniture he should buy to fill the house, Joseph's voice came from the door, "Hugo, Hugo!" ”

"Here, in the room." Hugo replied loudly, but his eyes were still in his empty room, there was no furniture except for the mattress, and several huge moving boxes were placed in the middle, still not opened, but the problem was that even if Hugo disassembled now, there was no place to put things, so it was better not to dismantle it, and just leave it like this.

Hearing the footsteps of Joseph walking in, Hugo said, "Alex said that there is a second-hand furniture market nearby, and you said that we should go there today and see what furniture there is, otherwise there will be no place to put the things out." ”

"We'll talk about that later." Joseph's breath was a little chaotic, which made Hugo turn his head in surprise, and saw Joseph's constant panting, it seemed that he was running all the way down from the fourth floor, "I, I just received a call from Beau." "Here's Beau Goodman, the screenwriter of "Smell a Woman."

"Still have shots to reshoot in the later stages of the movie?" This is Hugo's first reaction, otherwise the movie has only been completed for less than half a month, and the post-production will definitely not end so soon, "Or is Universal Pictures determined the release time?" ”

Joseph shook his head, he didn't sell it anymore, and said directly, "Bo introduced you to a job, to be precise, an audition opportunity." ”

Hugo was immediately interested, could it be that he was really going to start running lately? Originally, I thought that I would be unemployed for a period of time after "Smelling a Woman", but now, the premiere of "Final Analysis" achieved unexpected results, and then there was an audition coming to the door. The afterglow of the Golden Raspberry Award seems to have finally passed, and Hugo's actor career has gradually shown a happy attitude.

"That's right, before you were in the 'Smell a Woman' crew, they were full of praise for Bo and Martin, and then Beau mentioned it once with Jack Nicholson." Beau Goodman once worked with Jack Nicholson on "One Flew Over the Asylum", and the two were very good friends," Jack asked Al about him as well, and Al seemed to say a lot of nice things about you in front of him. Now Jack is preparing a new work, and filming is about to start, but the actor has not been decided. ”

"Doesn't Jack play the lead actor?" Hugo couldn't help but interrupt Joseph to ask, Jack Nicholson is still one of the best actors in the United States, and he has no problem playing the leading role, so what kind of work can actually let Jack play the role?

"He thinks there is more room for supporting roles to play and his age is more suitable for supporting roles. In short, the actor has not yet been fully determined. Joseph said simply and quickly, "The crew is currently negotiating with Tom Cruise, but the contract has not yet been finalized, so Jack recommended you like the crew, thinking that you might be a good fit for the actor." ”

"Tom Cruise?" When Hugo heard the name, he realized how rare this opportunity was, but at the same time how difficult it was.

Today's Tom Cruise is actually in the prime of life, and he has starred in "Top Gun (TOP) since 1986. gun)" and then became a national icon, and later "Rain Man", "born on the Fourth of July. on。 the。 fourth。 of。 Juli)" has been a huge success, and "born on the Fourth of July" also earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Actor, which can be said to be in the prime of his career as an actor.

"What, you don't have faith?" Joseph heard Hugo's voice full of doubts, and thought that Hugo was not confident enough in this competition.

But Hugo shook his head and showed a bright smile, "Before the producer makes a decision, everyone has a chance, and this naturally includes me, isn't it?" You see, now the opportunity is at the door. ”
