1768. Chapter 1768 1768 Help
Objectively speaking, Hugo is indeed standing at the peak of his career now, and he has almost reached heights that no one else can reach. For him, whether it's music or movies, there aren't too many challenges. It's a bit arrogant, but it's true.
The previous pace of constantly chasing dreams seems to have lost the direction of progress and the motivation to continue sprinting.
Of course, Hugo also knew that he was only halfway there, and his current achievements may seem brilliant, but they are still nothing compared to those who are truly top superstars. Because the so-called superstars, the so-called artists, they have all achieved such prestige after a long time of testing and years of precipitation. If Hugo can't keep going, then he's just a meteor at best - no matter how dazzling and fiery the meteor is, it's just a meteor after all.
The entertainment industry is a very cruel and simple world. Hugo has established his position today with success after success, he doesn't want to prove himself to anyone, but he needs to let time test him. So, Hugo still has a long, long way to go.
Hugo couldn't be clearer about these truths. It's just that it's not so easy to adjust your mentality, it's like walking down the stage surrounded by 110,000 spectators in Madison Garden Square, just like the loneliness and loneliness after stepping down from the stage surrounded by 110,000 spectators in Madison Garden Plaza, just like the three excellent scripts in your hand that make you hesitate but can't clear your mind and make a judgment...... That feeling of emptiness, terrible, but there is no way to make up for it.
If you want to think about it from the perspective of acting, in fact, the characters in the three scripts of "L.A. Confidential", "Unruly Night" and "Murder of Green Toes" are very interesting and have their own characteristics.
The three protagonists of "L.A. Confidential" are very different, with very different acting styles and digging angles; The protagonists of "Unruly Night" and "Murder of Green Toes" both have a touch of absurd comedy, but the comedy of "Unruly Night" is involuntary humor under the social background, while "Murder of Green Toes" has exaggerated humor of the fate of the little people.
Of course, when it comes to each role, there will still be advantages and disadvantages, which requires Hugo to carefully read the script and carefully study the context of the script and the shaping of the characters. But Hugo can't calm down to study the script now, in fact, he has already read all three scripts, but now he can't think about it carefully, this feeling makes people feel powerless.
Raising his head, he put the "Los Angeles Secrets" on the bench next to him, Hugo raised his feet, hugged his knees tightly, and quietly watched the sunset in front of him, the blood-red sunset dyed the whole sky into a bright color, the blue sea waves churned in the blood-like glow, and the frolicking sound on the beach could be heard in the sea breeze, gently vibrating in the air, but the world was quieter than ever at this moment, so quiet that all impetuousness precipitated.
Hugo loved moments like this, as if he were the only one left in the world, but he was not alone, and the brief freedom and comfort seemed to make all worries unimportant.
Picking up the phone next to him, Hugo wanted to talk to someone else, maybe not about the script or work, just a small talk. After thinking about it, Hugo pressed Cameron's phone number, but his thumb was on the green call button, but he couldn't press it. Even if the call went through, he didn't know what to say.
Remembering that he received a call from Cameron in the hospital in San Francisco, she was so worried that she burst into tears, and even cried to the point that she couldn't help herself - this was the second time that Hugo had a mental state problem, which almost scared her to death, and her voice began to tremble slightly. So, Hugo doesn't know if his state today will worry Cameron again, and he's not sure if he should tell Cameron about the pressure he's feeling inside.
But...... At least he should try to see, shouldn't he?
Pressed the green call button, and soon Cameron picked up the phone, her voice full of surprise, "Hey, Hugo, why did you call me?" Before the words fell, she could be heard laughing happily.
The corners of Hugo's mouth couldn't help but lightly outline an arc, "I'm watching the sunset, and I think it's really beautiful, so I think of you." Resting his chin on his knees and looking at the flame-like sunset in front of him, "Where are you now?" Can you see the sunset? ”
"Yes, I can see it." Cameron's excited voice came, "Wow, today's sunset is really beautiful." Cameron couldn't help but sigh, "God, do you see that huge cloud in the sky?" It looks like a big tortoise, but now it's a big tortoise dyed red. ”
Hugo looked up, and then he saw the cloud that Cameron was talking about, and he burst out laughing, "I don't think it wants to be described like this." ”
"But the group behind it is her children? Oh God, you see, what a big bunch. Cameron's lively words completely outlined the smile on Hugo's lips, "Damn, it looks like shit again." Excrement! I'm actually saying foul language! Cameron's self-talk completely entertained Hugo.
But after laughing, Hugo couldn't help but be stunned, "Hey, do you see the same scenery as me?" "Although it is said that we all see the same sky, will the scenery be the same in different regions? Listening to Cameron's description, the clouds are almost exactly the same as those of Long Beach.
"......" Cameron didn't speak, and just as Hugo thought the phone was disconnected, he heard her burst out laughing, "Of course I hope it's the same." Such a wonderful sunset, are you going to watch it with other women? The voice sounded in Hugo's ears, but it sounded so ...... At close range, it was as if it was really ringing behind him, and then before Hugo could turn his head, he saw Cameron walking from the side.
Hugo's eyes widened and he stayed where he was. Cameron, on the other hand, jumped on his feet and said in annoyance, "It's almost there, if you react a little slower, I can scare you." ”
"You...... How did you end up here? Hugo blurted out, he definitely didn't expect that Cameron would sneak to Long Beach City. If Rick knew, he would definitely be furious, because Cameron is definitely the object of intensive attention from the paparazzi, and once Hugo's location is exposed because of Cameron's whereabouts, then Hugo's recuperation will be in vain.
Cameron laughed and sneered, "Why, don't you want me to show up?" These words suddenly made Hugo touch his nose shyly, and explained, "You know I don't mean that", Cameron sat directly next to Hugo, hugged Hugo's shoulders tightly, and said with a smile, "I know!" Then Cameron gently bit his lip and "shh ”
Hugo was stunned, but didn't know how to answer, Cameron quickly explained, "I confirmed, there are really no paparazzi." After I went to the supermarket, I sneaked out from behind, took a bus to the rental place, and rented a car temporarily. After saying that, Cameron showed a triumphant expression, "How's it going, how did I do?" ”
Hugo couldn't laugh or cry, but finally smiled and nodded, "Yes, well done." Hugo imprinted a kiss on Cameron's forehead, "Well, it's dinner time, you must be hungry all the way here, do you have any plans for today?" ”
Cameron looked up at Hugo, and asked with watery eyes, "You're the master here, aren't you going to show me around?" ”
Hugo pinched Cameron's chin, "Of course there is no problem." I'll show you around, and I'll be back after a while, and Neil will cook. Recently, Samora had also stayed in Los Angeles, so the men, who didn't know anything about cooking, had plummeted, and Neil, who could barely tell the difference between sugar and salt, became "the best cook."
"Hugo, Hugo, it's really good today, it's really good if you don't go...... Hey, Cameron! Pedro rushed in, dripping with seawater, holding a surfboard, with a big smile on his face, but when he saw the uninvited guest, he could barely control his expression and was completely stunned.
Cameron raised his right hand and greeted Pedro, and then Fogin and Neil walked in together, "Pepe, go in!" What are you doing with your surfboard blocking the doorway! Then the two of them walked around and saw Cameron sitting on the side, the two of them couldn't help frowning slightly, exchanged glances, but after all, they didn't say anything, just greeted Cameron.
For a while, the atmosphere was a little dreary. Suddenly, the mobile phone that Hugo had not put down in his hand rang sharply, and Hugo quickly stood up, "Pepe, you take Cameron for a visit, and then we'll take a look...... Neil cooks or orders takeout. ”
Neil walked over to Hugo and asked in a low voice, "Does Rick know?" Hugo shook his head, Neil frowned slightly, and without saying anything, beckoned Cameron to come over.
Hugo looked down at this time, although the phone did not have a caller ID, but after using it for a long time, he can roughly remember the number now, this is actually Charlize's call. Hugo originally thought it was Rick or Joseph's call, but he looked up and explained to Fokine, "It's Charlize, I'll answer the phone and I'll be over soon." ”
Hugo then stepped aside so that Pedro and Fokine could pass their surfboards, and picked up the phone, "Hey, Charlize, don't tell me you're in Long Beach right now?" ”
However, there was an unfamiliar cry on the other end of the phone, like a helpless child, whimpering lowly, "Hugo ......" was followed by a long silence, only the hiccups caused by crying for too long were intermittently wafting, "I...... I don't know what's going on. The shattered voice fluttered faintly in the bloody sun.
