Michael can become the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, and he deals with many top people in power on a daily basis, so it is naturally impossible to show his feet easily. He exhaled softly, venting the sullen breath in his chest, but then deliberately showed a very obvious embarrassed expression, "Sorry, the beer just now has obviously started to work." A simple sentence believed the small change in his expression just now.

At this time, because of the fact that in the club, factors such as lighting and noise make it easy to lose details, and at this moment, Hugo has drunk some more wine, and his reaction is a little more sluggish than usual, so naturally he didn't notice Michael's almost fleeting strangeness, he smiled and nodded, "That's one of the purposes of enjoying the night, isn't it?" Looks like you're having a good night. ”

Michael chuckled dryly, "Are you here with a friend today?" This casual question, without any aggression, made Hugo point to the direction behind him, but did not specify where he was sitting - Hugo still kept enough vigilance in his mind, "Yes, a few friends get together." ”

Michael looked behind Hugo and said in a relaxed tone, "I thought it was the finale of your work, but now it doesn't seem to be." A strange thing flashed through Hugo's mind - was he so clear what he was pointing just now? Michael actually recognized the people in the booth at once, and it was still under such lights in the club? "Not long ago, I heard a friend mention your work this time, and he almost couldn't hold back his excitement and wanted to see it on the big screen right away."

This sentence is a bit long, because of the music on the dance floor, Hugo didn't hear it clearly for a while, leaned forward, Michael paused slightly, bit the root of his teeth hard, and then spoke again, "I have heard a lot of news, and they all say that your work this time is very worth looking forward to." This couldn't be better for the audience. ”

Michael knew the timing wasn't great, but he tried it out with a sideshow.

Hugo shook his head modestly, "We look forward to it every time before the film starts, isn't it?" But there is no intention of discussing "Truman's world" head-on.

"I hope so, indeed." Michael smiled and nodded, "It's like 'perfect', it's a real surprise, isn't it?" When I watched it in the cinema, I was amused several times, and I really didn't expect that the story could be told like this. ”

Michael was still a little impatient, but due to the constraints of the club's environment, he couldn't help it, and he was going to continue with the "perfect" thing, complimenting Hugo's script and then talking about "L.A. Confidential", both of which are very good examples of scripts, trying to create some topics. It's a little impatient, but overall it's manageable.

That's what Michael is going to do today, he's not going to talk about anything more, that's it, but that's enough. The rest of the further conversation will wait until the next time to find an opportunity, and if it all takes place tonight, it may be self-defeating.

However, Michael didn't wait for Hugo's answer, only saw a shallow smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth, opened his mouth, and said two words, and there was a loud bang behind him, and the sound of "boom" even overshadowed the music on the dance floor, not only interrupting Hugo's words, but also making the entire dance floor completely chaotic, everyone screamed like a frightened bird and swarmed out of the corner, and the audience was completely chaotic.

No one will forget that this is the "river", and that the hip-hop battle between the east and west banks has evolved to the point where guns are being fired against each other in front of the streets, and there are people who have given their lives for it. Therefore, the slightest commotion is enough to panic, not to mention the huge sensation in front of him, which almost scared the three souls and seven spirits away.

Hugo's heart suddenly beat violently, and his first reaction was to turn his head to look at the booth he was in, because he clearly knew what was going on here today, Snoopy-Dogg and Daddy Boast were in the same space, although Daddy Boast had already known about today's Hundred Records abacus, and it was with his consent that Roger arranged the meeting here, and more importantly, they didn't plan to let Daddy Boast and Snoopy meet directly today, so it stands to reason that nothing would happen at all, but ...... Who knows?

Through the chaotic crowd, Hugo saw that his booth was not the source of the disaster, everyone raised their heads and looked at the chaos in front of them with a stunned expression, Snoopy Dogg stood up directly, and immediately pulled out a pistol from his waist, but he just stood in place and did not make any further movements.

Seeing the pistol with his own eyes made Hugo's heart shrink again, but fortunately there was no accident for the time being, Hugo turned his head again and looked around, but there was chaos in front of him, and he couldn't see what was going on - because what was fine was now something.

Michael stood there and gritted his teeth, but he was helpless, when he learned that Hugo appeared in the "river", he expected such an accident, this area is really not safe lately. Now, as expected, something happened.

Michael was a little hesitant at this time, he knew that such chaos was actually a huge security risk, but at the same time, it was a perfect opportunity - he didn't need to do anything, just need him to be by Hugo's side, in such a crisis situation, it was easy to bridge the gap between the two people, at least they could become friends, then it would definitely be beneficial for the next negotiations. But even if there is no need for Michael to take any concrete action, his life is in danger, and that is the greatest sacrifice.

So, Michael was thinking: Is this a good deal? In order to be friends with Hugo, in order for Hugo to attend the Golden Globes, for an illusory question of probability, is he really willing to put his life in danger?

At this moment, a loud "bang" was heard again, and the noisy music on the dance floor was still playing, but no one in the audience was laughing, only the noise of being extremely agitated by fear; The club's security guards were all dispatched, and everyone had drawn their weapons from their waists—not electric batons or emergency batons, but guns, which completely covered the audience with fear, and became more and more empty against the loud music.

"Bang! Bang bang! A continuous dull sound came, and then I saw that on the stairs leading to the second floor, clumsy bodies rolled down one after another, which alarmed the guests below the stairs and panicked, and they all got out of the way, making the scene even more restless.

Hugo only felt that the alcohol began to rise in his brain, his temples were beating faintly, he looked back, but found that Michael, who was still by his side just now, had disappeared, he thought that Michael was scattered by the crowd, and looked around, but then he reacted, the two of them are just general acquaintances, and they naturally take care of themselves first when they encounter such a crisis situation. Hugo quickly withdrew his gaze, and prepared to return to the booth and stand with his friends, which was the wisest choice.

"Grass! Grass! Grass! A roar roared, "It's me...... Hit the wrong person...... I! It's ...... me" The staccato and scattered voices were very distinct in the abnormal silence, mixed with a kind of agitation of a group fight, which actually added a hint of joy.

Hugo couldn't help but look back, and now it seems that it is not the contradiction between East and West Coast hip-hop that is the problem, but the problem that can occur in any club - drunken guests make trouble, and dealing with this kind of thing is the basic skill of almost every club. It's just that Hugo was a little surprised that this brawl was so sensational, it can be seen that although the management of the "river" is strict, it is a little loose.

This time, Hugo saw a familiar figure in the flickering lights, which made Hugo stunned directly, and his first reaction was that he was wrong, and then there was a burst of chaos, and the foul words mixed with the muffled sound of fists made it impossible to maintain the order of the scene. This made the figure that Hugo had just seen disappear again.

Hugo suspected that the person he saw was Leonardo, he originally wanted to turn around and leave directly, but after thinking about it carefully, he still took two steps forward, trying to confirm the figure just now, and then Hugo saw a figure that was not strong and was directly grabbed by two security guards, and carried directly to the second floor with both hands.

The picture did look comical, but the chaos that had been forcefully suppressed at the scene was not funny at all.

"It's all right, it's all right! Don't make a fuss! Several security guards raised pistols around the dance floor, and said loudly, signaling everyone to get up again and continue to enjoy, but the few figures who were still struggling at the mouth of the gun and the staircase in the black hole did not have any hedonistic atmosphere at all, but let the cold of fear penetrate deep into the bone marrow.

Hugo knew from his memory that Lancaster was no stranger to such a situation, and in the time after Hudson's Eagle, he had not only witnessed it many times, but also experienced it himself. So, although for Hugo, the fear of the freedom of the gun was the first contact, and the blood became cold in an instant; But his heartbeat, which had been beating wildly, slowly calmed down.

Hugo turned around and walked to the booth just now, and when he saw the pistol in Snoopy's hand, he couldn't help but pause, and Snoopy immediately realized his faux pas, but he just shrugged his shoulders and put the pistol in his pocket with an expression of "no need to make a fuss". Hugo didn't say much, and looked at Henry and Forkin, "I saw Leo just now, it seems that he was involved in a brawl." ”

Fuquin and Henry both looked at Hugo, and both showed solemn expressions, and Foquin stood up directly, walked out of the booth, and prepared to go over to help. When Snoopy saw this scene, he didn't sit down in a hurry, he looked at Forkine and then at Hugo, "Is there anything I can help with?" This is California after all. ”
