Looking at the noisy and struggling crowd in front of him, and Hugo standing in the middle with a always friendly attitude, Sam thought it was really funny.

After the ridiculous list of winners of the Golden Globe Awards came out, for a month, Endeavour Elite Agency's attitude was very friendly, much to the disappointment of the news media who had been looking forward to watching the show.

Although the media knows that under normal circumstances, artists will not be more serious about the award ceremony, at most they refuse to attend like Woody Allen, and artists who directly give the awards ceremony a faceless like Marlon Brando are rare in the long history of film, not to mention that the Golden Globe Awards have always been exquisite-look at the cake of the award list is so evenly distributed, it can be seen that they rarely have a bad relationship with artists; But everyone is still looking forward to more sparks, after all, Hugo has made the uncrowned kings suffer many times before - and they are also looking forward to the Golden Globe Awards to learn this taste.

However, Hugo refused to respond positively on the grounds that he was filming in locks, which was also considered by the media to be Hugo's silent protest, while Charlize's comments on the night of the ceremony and Rick's remarks in the aftermath interview were too simplistic and disdainful. This was also considered by the media to be Hugo's most extreme response within the limits of allowability.

The media generally believes that Endeavour Elite Agency does not want to fight the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, after all, they do not yet have the strength of the three major agencies.

In this way, the result of the hand-wrestling between Endeavour Elite Agency and the Golden Globes this time is evenly matched: Hugo has been absent from the awards ceremony for three consecutive years, which has affected the whole ceremony a lot, and it has also embarrassed the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which has given Hugo four nominations.

But on the other hand, the Golden Globe Awards only gave Hugo a painless consolation prize in the end, giving up the popular "Death Row Walk" in favor of "Stay Away from the Las Vegas", and chose the former who only won the nomination for the second time in the head-to-head duel between Brad and Hugo, which not only blocked the crowd, but also kept Hugo from making any comments in front of the media.

In such a comparison, the game between the two is indeed winless.

Of course, the overwhelming accusations of the Golden Globes in the news media appear to have put countless pressure on the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, but in fact, the Golden Globes have won attention on the topic, making up for the loss of attention caused by Hugo's absence, and this controversy is still within the acceptable range.

To be precise, Hugo still suffered a dark loss, and the veteran Golden Globes had a slight advantage, and they used a trophy for best actor in a musical comedy to send away Hugo, who had been strong in the past four years. Especially for next year's awards ceremony, the Golden Globes have already taken the lead - we have already honored you this year, so if you continue to be absent next year, it will not give us the whole association face.

But now the situation is completely different, Hugo actually flew to Germany by private jet to attend the Berlinale - not a twenty-minute distance from Burbank to Beverly Hills, but across the Atlantic to the continent on the other side. The rejection of the Golden Globes in favor of Berlin, which takes more than 10 hours to reach is a long flight away, makes the Golden Globes a complete joke.

But the problem is that in the face of such a situation, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has no way to complain publicly, because Rick has always said that "as long as time permits, Hugo will be there...... Whether it's the Golden Globes, the Berlin Film Festival, ......" even if they directly accused, Rick could fully justify it: there was no time a month ago, but after a month of rushing work, now Hugo can take time out.

Just as Hugo and Endeavour Elite Agency could not openly condemn the Golden Globe winners for being biased, the Golden Globes now have no way to accuse Hugo of choosing to attend the Berlin Film Festival, one of the three major film festivals in Europe. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association doesn't defend it, and all speculation will only run under the water; Once they pleaded their own case, it was only their own shame that all the controversy surfaced.

It seems that not long ago, the Golden Globe Award gave Hugo a dark loss, but now the situation has completely reversed.

Hugo's choice to attend the Berlin Film Festival also put the Golden Globe Awards in a dilemma again.

The major media are condemning the absurdity of the Golden Globe winners' lists, and there is an upset called wonderful - everyone is looking forward to breaking the expected upset; The appearance of two upsets is called a surprise - this is a reflection of personality for an awards ceremony; The appearance of three upsets makes people a little confused, and the appearance of a large number of upsets is quite speechless. The Golden Globes are not independent spirit awards.

Now, Hugo's actual actions coincide with the media's views, and what is not intended is that the media are constantly building momentum for Hugo, and finally promoted Hugo's move to Berlin to participate in the film festival - unlike the Golden Globe Awards, the Berlin Film Festival is an art film festival in the true sense, and Hugo's three works last year can be called masterpieces of art films, and no one will forget that "before sunrise" was affirmed by the Silver Bear Award for Best Director at the Berlin Film Festival last year.

Hugo's attendance at the Berlinale was also a reaffirmation of his position as an actor rather than a star - this is what Hugo has always insisted on, but this time, this insistence was fueled by the media, making the Golden Globes a pig in the mirror in an instant.

It is conceivable that after today's news comes out, the whole United States will usher in a vigorous earthquake, and the madness and earnestness of the more than 150 news reporters at the door, Sam only faintly touched a little sense of reality at this moment.

Sam couldn't help but sigh again and again, he only now really understood what Rick's previous remarks in the interview meant, and also really understood the reason why the past month has been calm, the slap in the face of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association by Endeavor Elite Agency is really too loud. If you go one step further, "Death Row Walk" was well received at the Berlin Film Festival...... Even if you take the prize directly......

Thinking of this, Sam couldn't help but get excited, and then looked at the red-faced cheeks in his sight, Sam finally knew the ecstasy in the hearts of the reporters at this time.

Indeed, the reporters were in a state of absolute euphoria, and when they learned that Hugo was going to attend the Berlin Film Festival, it was as if the news of the bomb had exploded and everyone was doping, and they knew exactly what it meant. Ironically, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association should have been more aware of what this means – they are themselves an organization of foreign journalists, and their media outlets are based outside North America.

The crowd surrounding Hugo stopped at the staircase of the plane, Sam and Tony also quickly stopped, and the two of them also took the initiative to step forward and cooperate with their colleagues to block the surging crowd, and then Sam heard Hugo behind him raise his voice and say, "Thank you for your concern for me." ”

Hugo's words made the reporters quiet down one after another, because everyone knew that Hugo was finally going to respond positively.

Sam looked up, only to find that behind the floor-to-ceiling glass of the departure hall on the second floor, there was a crowd of people standing there, and it was clear that everyone had noticed the commotion, and the magnificent crowd seemed to be spectacular - the grander the scene, the more turbulent the wave would be.

"As you know, I've been busy filming Independence Day for more than a month, and although the last two weeks have been relatively easy, and we're a little bit ahead of expectations, we don't have many advantages, so we need to continue to work hard." In response to this kind of scene, Hugo seems to be at ease, always with a smile on his face, and speaks unhurried and clear, but unconsciously, he has already grasped the initiative of discourse - the difference in the order of speech and the distribution of emphasis often produces unexpected effects, which is the art of speaking.

Hugo was the first to mention the work of the "Independence Day" crew, and he had already blocked all the speculation of reporters about the Golden Globe Awards, "According to the original plan, I will also be absent from the film festival that kicks off in Berlin this week, and Tim and Susan will go to Berlin on behalf of the crew to promote the 'Death Row Walk'." ”

As Hugo said, the Berlinale actually opened on February 15, and Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon were already in Berlin. "But a German friend of mine who happened to have an urgent need to go back to Berlin sent me a friendly invitation to go to Berlin to join Tim and Susan and contribute to the promotion of the film. After careful discussions with the crew, including Roland, I was given permission to go to Berlin and return in three days to continue filming on Independence Day. ”

"Thank you for your interest in me, and I hope you will pay more attention to the 'Death Row Walk' in Berlin, thank you." After Hugo finally thanked him again, he didn't give the reporters time to ask questions, and turned around and walked up the ladder of the plane.

"Hugo, what do you think of the Golden Globes", "Are you unhappy with the Golden Globes", "Don't you think it's too much to miss the Golden Globes and go to Berlin", "Are you protesting", "Does this mean that you don't think the Golden Globes for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy mean anything"......

Countless questions surged in an instant, but Hugo did not stop, or walked straight into the plane, calmly shook hands and hugged the flight attendants standing at the cabin door, leaving only the red-faced reporters standing in place.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and everyone shivered involuntarily, and the sound of "hulala" was particularly loud, as if it was the crisp sound of a palm touching a cheek.

Sam looked back at Hugo, who was still standing at the door of the cabin, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his mood soared.
