When this episode of "The Tonight Show" was broadcast, before the end staff subtitles appeared, a line of words appeared, "I would like to dedicate this film to Jenny Davis (Jenny. davis) and the Grayson Gift Foundation", and then at the end of the subtitles, an icon of a rainbow windmill appears.

The line of subtitles lingered for about three seconds before slowly disappearing, but it triggered an unimaginable follow-up reaction.

When "The Tonight Show" was broadcast, it actually called on 9.17 million viewers to sit in front of the TV at 11:30 p.m. to watch, which not only easily refreshed the "Tonight Show" last year's "Speed of Life and Death" special 783 viewership record, once again setting the highest rating in the post-Johnny Carson era; And the results have also increased significantly, which is almost an incredible achievement for a late-night talk show.

Due to the "Death Row Walk" and the topic effect of Hugo, countless viewers stayed in front of the TV, hoping to know the truth about the Hugo incident in August from the live TV broadcast for the first time. What's even more rare is that in the ratings range between the ages of 18 and 49, "The Tonight Show" actually got a rating of 4.2, which also greatly exceeded the number of Jù in last year's special, and even approached the ratings of Johnny Carson on the night he left "The Tonight Show" in 1992.

This shows that Hugo has an unparalleled strong appeal among young people today.

But to everyone's surprise, the highest ratings of "The Tonight Show" did not appear at the moment of clarification of the Hugo incident, but the moment when Hugo and Jay were arguing on the topic of Brad, and 9.91 million viewers watched the clip of less than two minutes, which is endlessly approaching the threshold of 10 million viewers!

It also makes it clear that the showdown between Hugo and Brad is still a hot topic - even if the topic seems to have disappeared for a long time after the release of "The Seven Deadly Sins".

Relying on a series of record-breaking results, "The Tonight Show" easily beat two rivals, "The Late Show with David Letterman" and "The Politics Are Incorrect," both of which had fewer than three million viewers, or even less than a third of the "Tonight Show" results. Such a powerful gap can almost be said to be a sweep!

After the broadcast of "The Tonight Show", all the topics during the filming of "Death Row Walk" were answered positively, and Hugo's dedication, calmness, calmness, and focus were recognized by the audience, especially Hugo's repeated emphasis that he was not an actor from a professional class, nor was he a talented actor, which also made people clearly feel Hugo's efforts. It also makes Hugo seem more normal.

People can't help but sigh: it turns out that Hugo is also an ordinary person.

Especially the "Tonight Show" and the "Friends" broadcast later, the aura of apotheosis around Hugo suddenly faded a lot, which not only made Hugo more affinity, but also shortened the distance between Hugo and ordinary audiences. This is also an unexpected result of Rick Rosen, and it can only be said that the Matthew effect is indeed very impressive after it has played a positive role.

However, due to the sensitivity and particularity of the "Hugo incident", people have no way to discuss it more, and it is the content that is repeated over and over again, so there are not as many related topics as imagined. This is also a big reason why Rick insisted that Hugo didn't need to respond in the first place - he knew that Hugo needed time buffer, and he didn't want people to put too much pressure on Hugo. But what is certain is that the discussion of "Death Row Walk" has once again broken the table, and the movie tickets for the first week are just as Hugo said: a ticket is hard to find!

In addition, the important reason why "The Tonight Show" has achieved such high ratings is that Hugo and Jay cooperate directly, many viewers have told NBC TV that Hugo's witty words and Jay's wit and cunning can be said to be a match made in heaven, and even after the broadcast of "Friends", people gave Hugo's comedy talent a super high evaluation, and some people suggested that Hugo and Jay open up a new comedy talk show together, which really makes people laugh and cry - everyone knows that this is impossible.

The one who really got a lot of attention after the broadcast of "The Tonight Show" was none other than Jenny Davis, who was not very long.

Although Hugo did not mention Jenny much in the program, his words were very simple and sincere, and the sentence "Hugo, am I going to die" made the eyes of countless viewers in front of the TV red.

In an instant, the problem of seriously ill children became the focus of social attention, and the news media reported on this topic one after another, and for a time the news of related issues was endless, continuing the heat of the night of the "Tonight Show", and in a blink of an eye, the children became the center of the issue.

When the media reported on it, people realized that the problem of medical assistance for children was facing such great difficulties.

Many incurable diseases are already very difficult when they appear in adults, and because the child's physical functions are not fully developed, especially many underage children, the autoimmunity is not perfect at all, which also makes many treatments impossible to use. And the children who are not treated because of their economic problems are far beyond imagination, not in Africa or South America, but by their own side, and every day there are children leaving this world, and they do not even have time to enjoy the innocence and joy of children.

Philanthropic organizations such as the Grayson Gift Foundation have become the focus of attention, and more and more people are looking at children - everyone knows that children are the future of society.

Among the countless highlights, some media questioned whether Hugo was putting on a show, because there had never been any news about Hugo carrying out charity activities before, and they believed that Hugo was just using the so-called charity activities to build his own image project, which is undoubtedly shameful and despicable.

The power of the "Hugo incident" has gradually receded, and the media has begun to revert to its old ways, although there are not many media that have raised doubts, and they are not national newspapers, and they are very careful in their wording, only reasonable suspicion, and do not go beyond the line; But it can still be seen that the media are still unwilling after all - no king will willingly hand over his scepter, not even the uncrowned king.

However, the news was later clarified, and many organizations such as the Grayson Gift Foundation and Santa Monica Hospital defended Hugo in interviews with the media, and many fellow volunteers also testified for Hugo. These testimonies also made the doubts disappear before they had time to be publicized.

Naturally, all eyes were focused on helping seriously ill children.

The Grayson Gift Foundation's pre-Christmas fundraiser raised $4 million! That's almost the sum of all the donations that have been made to the Grayson Gift Foundation in its three years of existence, and it shows Hugo's unparalleled influence, and he has achieved such results with just a mention on "The Tonight Show".

This is the so-called "star effect", even if this is a show, even if this is image public relations, but it is undeniable that more and more public figures join in charity activities in order to attract more public attention and give charity activities greater power. This can also be considered as part of the added value of a public figure. Silently doing charity and high-profile charity, if the essence is doing charity, then there is no difference, but if the essence is off track, it is really undesirable.

In the face of such a high amount of donations, the Grayson Gift Foundation also publicly stated that most of these expenses will be used to sponsor disease research in professional institutions, hoping to fundamentally help those children; The remainder of the money will be used to support children who are not treated due to financial problems, in the hope that more children can grow up without worry.

After finishing his work, Hugo stood behind the scenes, because he knew that the real protagonists were the children in need, not him. So, Hugo only personally donated $300,000 to the Grayson Gift Foundation, and then disappeared temporarily.

After a long vacation, Hugo began to read the script one after another, although he may not be immediately involved in the crew, but at least there can be a plan.

After learning that Hugo began to officially read the script, Hollywood suddenly began to surge again, and after experiencing the four works of "Vulgar", "Before Sunrise", "Seven Deadly Sins", and "Death Row Walk", the major film companies are a little unclear about Hugo's orientation. However, with the exception of "The Seven Deadly Sins", the other three works are all outright independent works, so film companies are more inclined to submit independent scripts to Hugo.

But the problem is that studios still want films to win at the box office, but independent works are not so easy to achieve. This also makes the major companies seem to be in a dilemma.

Among the many small actions, Twentieth Century Fox's huge plan finally began to surface, Rick got the news as soon as possible, Twentieth Century Fox is currently planning a big project, the investment budget is about 100 million US dollars, and the theme is an epic war blockbuster, and the scale will definitely be far beyond expectations.

Not only that, but Twentieth Century Fox's peripheral movements are also very frequent, and they first took the initiative to contact the White House, saying that they hoped to be able to shoot on the spot at the White House; Then he began to negotiate with the NFL, trying to buy the advertising rights during the Super Bowl, before which the Super Bowl was advertised, but no movie chose to promote it during the Super Bowl, which was undoubtedly the first time to eat crabs, which caused countless attention; Immediately after that, they also began to negotiate advertising sponsorships, including Apple and Coca-Cola.

The cast lineup of this work has not even been announced, and one move after another has already attracted the attention of countless people. But people are a little hesitant, is this the second "Terminator 2" or the second "Future Water World"?

In such a situation, Sergio Mimika Gozan personally approached Hugo.
