72_72291Hugo only felt groggy in his whole head, and he couldn't remember how much alcohol he was poured into, and then he played Texas Hold'em with Rick, Kevin, Tom, Allen and others, and the bet was not chips, but alcohol, Hugo's luck seemed to run out tonight, so it was completely one glass after another, and he could already feel his stomach rolling, and it seemed that he could vomit at any time.

Hugo managed to escape Leonardo's control, leaving the bottom of the space, which was so stuffy that it felt like he couldn't breathe, and came to the deck, where he turned into a mess of brain and calmed down.

Time has become blurred, I don't know what time it is at this time, the sight is a hazy darkness, not the imaginary kind of darkness that can't see the five fingers, on the contrary, with a kind of luminous halo, faintly revealing a little light at the end of the horizon, that should be the place where the City of Angels is located, at this time the whole city has completely fallen silent, exuding a faint halo like fireflies, as if sinking into the depths of the sea like a lost civilization, distant, quiet, mysterious.

I thought it would be windy and rough at night, but I didn't want the whole sea level to be very quiet, and the calm of the waves made people wonder if this was not the sea, but just a lake. This made Hugo's chaotic thoughts gradually settle down, many, many things had happened tonight, or rather, many, many things had happened in the past year, and he needed a little time to cool down his overheated brain, otherwise he didn't know when it would explode.

Hugo didn't expect to be where he is today, not only with great box office success, but also with the Oscar-winning statuette, not to mention the Cannes and Berlin winners. Just a year ago, Hugo could not have imagined the current situation.

But when the excitement of winning the Oscar began to fade, Hugo began to be confused, he has now achieved success that many people can't imagine in a lifetime, he is now standing at the highest peak in the world, in the words of the media, he is a "superstar", as long as he wants, he can immediately become the actor of "Titanic", and even argue with James Cameron, and the script he is interested in, the producer is difficult to say no.

Not to mention the enjoyment of money, his current net worth has been worry-free for a lifetime, of course, if he really enjoys the life of high society like Allen, he has just glimpsed the threshold, but this is still a success that ordinary people can't achieve.

What about the future?

Hugo suddenly felt a burst of emptiness, should he star in "Titanic"? Should he choose another work that goes beyond "Death Row Prisoner Walk" to challenge new heights in acting? Should he organize Glory to Death to embark on a second tour? Should he put in the preparation for the band's new album?

In fact, before the Oscar, Hugo had already felt this confusion, when James put the "Titanic" project in front of Hugo, that was the first time Hugo learned that he had the hope of starring in one of the most important works in the history of this film, it is no exaggeration to say that "Titanic" is equivalent to the "Gone with the Wind" in the history of North American film development. Unexpectedly, Hugo was excited, but he didn't have the kind of impatient desire.

Hugo knew that this was like a mountaineer, after conquering one peak after another in the world, and finally reaching the summit of Mount Everest, the extreme excitement, extreme happiness, and extreme wonderful taste instantly burst out, making love reach its peak. But what about after the peak? It is the downhill road, which is the inevitability of the laws of nature, and the high places after a glance of the mountains are unbearable, so that the inner heat can not be relied on in an instant.

This feeling of emptiness almost swallowed Hugo.

Hugo finally understood at this time why so many top stars in Hollywood have their own problems, either pinning on alcohol or indulging in drugs. product, or vent in. Sex. Love, or carried in drag racing...... Everyone has a hobby – or a flaw. Because they are all standing at the peak, that loneliness, that kind of dazedness, and that kind of loneliness are eroding them all the time, and the huge pressure that a careless person may fall into pieces, and the attention from the spotlight and the Internet makes the pressure even more unbearable. They need a sustenance, but they also need a vent.

To put it mildly, everyone in the top stars has a disease, and the disease is caused by great pressure. Hollywood stars, led by Tom Cruise, are willing to join Coe. Learn. Teach, and there are traces to follow.

Hugo felt such tremendous pressure, not only in the days before the Golden Raspberry Award, but also in the years since, including the time before the release of "Bathing in the Morning Light", including the days after the release of "Before Sunrise", including the years when he left the international innovation management company to set up his own business...... Every footprint is carried under great pressure to persevere.

But tonight was different, because Hugo lost his goal, lost the motivation to keep going under pressure, the emptiness almost swallowed him, and the huge pressure on his shoulders poured down in an instant. Before the Oscars, Hugo was just a little confused, but after the Oscars, when the Best Actor Golden Man was held tightly in his hand, that emptiness overwhelmed Hugo in an instant, and even the "Titanic" could not make up for the terrible black hole.

The little golden man's curse, until this night, really became Hugo's shackles.

Maybe he should join "Titanic", because he knows that this is a work that is destined to write achievements, because he knows that even without his efforts, this is a work that will create zào brilliance, because he knows that this is a choice that cannot be lost...... Perhaps, he should have made such a choice.

Looking at the glowing city in the sea in front of him, Hugo suddenly felt that all thoughts were lost, and the blankness of losing his goal made him feel helpless, and he could only sit in place stupidly like a soulless puppet, waiting for the ropes tied to his limbs to be pulled. This unprecedented sense of emptiness left Hugo at a loss.

"Hey, you're here." A voice tore through the haze of the night, like a little starlight, pulling Hugo's attention to move slowly, but before Hugo's slow movements saw the other party, the person who came sat down directly next to Hugo and handed over a white water glass, "Maybe you need a little help." ”

The warm and bright voice made Hugo's sluggish brain look for the usual track little by little, and when his eyes were slightly raised, he saw Alan's familiar face, which made Hugo a little surprised, "Wow, I didn't expect you to be so careful." Hugo took the glass of water, feeling the faint warmth of the cup with both hands, and the sweet vapor of lemon mixed with honey slowly spread under the wings of his nose.

"It's not me, I don't study any of this, I'm just a courier guy, it's Charlize." Alan chuckled and shook his head, but three heads shook out of Hugo's sight, Hugo had to close his eyes and put the cup under the wing of his nose, trying to calm down the dizzy brain, "Charlize noticed your bad situation, she said that you will definitely vomit, so this cup is prepared for you...... Honey water, but she was temporarily called by Alex to play darts, so I helped deliver it. ”

"Dart ......," Hugo muttered, remembering the days when they used to live under the same roof, and then laughed.

Alan looked at Hugo smirking there with his eyes closed, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth was outlined, "So, what interesting things came to mind?" Is there anything wrong with darts? ”

"No, no......" Hugo originally wanted to shake his head, but found that his head was dizzy, so he had to stop, lowered his head and drank a large sip of honey water, his tumbling stomach seemed to be slowly settling down, and then took another big sip, this familiar taste made Hugo's brain feel a trace of warmth, "I just remembered the funny things from before, you know, Charlize and Alex used to be roommates with me, and many interesting things happened to us together." ”

"Yes, I've heard of it." Alan muttered in a deep voice, "That's definitely a lot of fun." But the sentence was very low, Hugo didn't hear it, just replied, "Huh? Eren quickly took a deep breath, "Oh no, I mean, did you guys have any interesting darts incidents?" ”

"Hehe, you would never guess that Charlize is a master of darts, or to be more precise, she's actually a man......" Hugo said slowly as he held his cup and half-closed his eyes.

Alan looked sideways at Hugo, who was leaning on the back of his chair in a daze, listened attentively to Hugo's story, responded a little from time to time, and then chuckled. Although Hugo was already half drunk at this time, and his words were fragmented, Alan was not impatient at all, just looked at Hugo and listened to Hugo carefully, as if this was the most important thing in the world.

In the night, Hugo's handsome face is outlined by the starlight, which is different from Hugo's usual sunny and gentle temperament, but has a lazy and casual sex. The breath mixed with alcohol dances in the sea breeze, exuding a strong masculine atmosphere. Unconsciously, Alan was a little distracted, and his vision couldn't help blurring, and suddenly, Hugo patted him on the shoulder, "Alan!" This startled him and frantically avoided his gaze, "What? What the! ”

Hugo looked at Allen's panicked expression, but he chuckled, "Calm down, calm down, I just said, thank you for arranging tonight's pie, you are a good friend." ”

"Good friends?" Allen's voice rose slightly, with a hint of lightness.

Hugo tapped his chin slightly, "Yes, good friend, a very rich good friend, you showed me a different world, which is not something that anyone can do." Hugo's ridicule and banter made Allen's expression stunned, and then he laughed out loud with Hugo
