Chapter 804： I don't know each other

Seeing Quentin’s tangled look, Hugo originally wanted to play a prank. He thought about it, should he throw the juice directly to the ground, or should he turn away angrily, but Perceiving the worries in Quentin's eyes, Hugo softened his heart. He knew Quentin was still worried about him, so he just showed a small smile, "I see."

Quentin was stunned when he looked at Hugo’s breezy expression. He thought he hadn’t said clearly, or Hugo hadn’t heard clearly, so he paused, and went on to say, "Hugo , I mean, Uma-Thurman has come to Cannes and is now staying at the Martinez Hotel (.)."

Hugo was immediately pleased by Quentin's weird expression, but he suppressed his smile and raised his eyebrows, "So?" Quentin was speechless, not knowing how to respond, and then Hugo continued. , "Does she ask us to participate in the promotion together?"

"No, of course not! How dare she!" Quentin's reaction was fierce, and he raised his voice directly and said, causing everyone in the living room to look over. Quentin waved his hand quickly, "It's okay, it's okay. "When I looked back, I saw the unbearable smile at the corner of Hugo's mouth, and he immediately understood, and he laughed helplessly.

This is a society under the rule of law, and this is a circle where interests are paramount, so although Uma and Hugo are froze, and her relationship with the "Pulp Fiction" crew has also fallen into a freezing point, and at the same time she was temporarily refrigerated by the production company. But none of this can change the fact that she is the heroine of "Pulp Fiction".

Uma will come to Cannes. This is completely expected. You just need to think about it briefly: now "Pulp Fiction" is Uma's last life-saving straw, she will definitely catch it desperately. Not to mention that this time is the opportunity to be on the Cannes stage. This is the focus of the world's attention. If she can be favored here, perhaps her dilemma in Hollywood can be completely changed.

And it is conceivable that not only Cannes, but also Uma will definitely participate in the later promotional activities of "Pulp Fiction" in the United States. Even if she doesn't take the initiative to show up, there will definitely be inciting media to interview her, and then try to dig out some hot spots.

Even the Weinstein brothers cannot completely block Uma during the "Pulp Fiction" propaganda period. After all, this is a free speech society. If they push Uma hard, Uma will not care about making up some things. , Fighting a fish to die and breaking the net, even if they are all lies, they are also very powerful for "Pulp Fiction".

Therefore, to make Uma "disappear completely", this is basically an impossible task.

Hugo is not an ignorant rookie who has just entered society. Naturally, he does not have such a simple and naive idea. But now Hugo does not have any special feelings for Uma, just like a stranger. The past disturbances have become After history, without love, naturally there is no hatred. In Hugo's view, Quentin's worries are simply unnecessary, because he doesn't care at all.

But Quentin's temper is very straightforward, daring to love and hate, he is very uncomfortable with Uma's original behavior, and it can be said that he hates it deeply. That’s why he worried that the appearance of Uma would cause trouble to Hugo, because it had already caused trouble to him, "Don’t worry, even if she appears, she can do very limited things. It’s best for her to stay on top of herself, if she has anything. With other calculations, she was wrong, and I will never let her succeed."

In fact, an actor offended the crew, and the crew has many methods to make the actor dumb. For example, the director deliberately didn't mention this actor during an interview. Even if a reporter asked, he would take it in one stroke, and then focus on complimenting another actor, so the focus of the report would naturally be tilted.

For another example, when the crew is on a TV show, the host’s questions and the distribution of the shots are exquisite. It is not difficult for an actor to "disappear" in the show unknowingly.

For example, when propagating across the United States, big cities like Los Angeles and New York are assigned to popular actors, and the offending actor goes to the platform of the sparsely populated city in the Midwest, and the report page will be very large. The difference.

There are also occasions like the Cannes Film Festival. Since the media is intensive interviews, personal connections are very important. Some actors may gather hundreds of reporters at the same time in front of them, and interviews can be endless 24 hours a day; The actors of may be just a routine interview, and there will be no space after the official question.

This means of making someone "invisible" is not a news industry or entertainment industry personnel, and it is simply not noticeable. When all audiences receive information, they just feel that a certain characteristic or a certain actor has been continuously focused on and enlarged reports, and other people will naturally become affiliates, even not worth mentioning. This also gave birth to the term "strengthening", which means that all public relations and media resources are tilted towards an artist, and the firepower is concentrated for publicity.

Therefore, in the entertainment industry, artists, staff, and the media are all dependent on and restraining each other. No one dares to offend the other two easily. Everyone knows the principle of "harmony makes money." At the critical juncture, everyone will not tear their faces. But the small actions in the dark are enough to change many things.

If Quentin, Hugo and Weinstein brothers have the intention to embarrass Uma, even if Uma comes to Cannes, people will have an illusion that she did not appear at all, not to mention that it is 1994 and the Internet news is completely gone. In the age, relatively speaking, news was blocked and lagging, and the difficulty of behind-the-scenes manipulation was greatly reduced.

However, Hugo did not have such paranoid and radical thoughts. He did not want to ruin his good mood because of a Uma, nor did he want to deliberately spend his thoughts because of a Uma. For this kind of past, paying attention to the other side instead called the other person. It’s because whether it’s positive news or negative news, paying attention is paying attention; on the contrary, it’s best to leave it behind and let it fend for itself.

Looking at Quentin with a gloomy look, Hugo chuckled and patted Quentin on the shoulder, "People who don't know thought she put a green hat on you."

Without thinking about it, Quentin punched Hugo directly on the shoulder, "I don't think it makes any difference." The pain of betraying trust is sometimes even more terrifying than cheating, for those who value trust.

Quentin was so angry because he was also betrayed by Uma. In fact, Quentin has always been very optimistic about Uma. He even regarded Uma as his goddess. He could see a steady stream of inspiration in Uma; but Uma not only slandered Hugo, but also sought after him. With Richard's help. For Quentin, brothers are like brothers and feet, women are like clothes, friendship and loyalty are his consistent insistence, so Uma's behavior is naturally intolerable.

Quentin's stubborn expression pleased Hugo, he didn't say much, and he walked towards the living room with a big laugh.

Because Quentin was vaccinated, when Hugo appeared on the beach the next day, there was no surprise to see Uma walking towards him.

Due to the constant adjustment of jet lag, Hugo slept intermittently and couldn’t fall asleep in the afternoon. So he changed into a pair of beach pants and a straw hat. He walked all the way and left the apartment building, walking along the palm-lined street to whiteness. On the beach in China, I found a group of young people who were playing volleyball and joined them directly.

Hugo saw Uma after a successful smash. Uma wore a sky blue vest and denim hot pants, showing her graceful figure, curled up, her eyes were always locked on Hugo. It was made clear that it was for Hugo.

Hugo looked around and didn't seem to see the reporter, which means that his incident on the beach was not exposed, but Uma was able to find him accurately. If all this is a coincidence, Hugo I wouldn't believe it, he was not so naive.

However, Hugo didn't know if Uma came to the door at this time for reconciliation or to make news, and he didn't want to know. Therefore, when the opposing player took the volleyball back and was about to serve, Hugo withdrew his attention and plunged into the sport again, without any plans to "recognize" with Uma.

There was a momentary stagnation in Uma's footsteps. Her sight was clearly in contact with Hugo, but why Hugo didn't seem to see her. There was only one explanation: Hugo definitely didn't want to care about her. Thinking of this, Uma was a little guilty, but she had made up her mind long before she set off from Los Angeles, didn't she? This was her only chance. If she missed it, she wouldn't know when she could reappear.

Hugo will actually win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, and now he is even more active in the United States. This is a situation that Uma hadn't expected before So no matter if she regrets or feels guilty or other She knows what emotions she has. She must seize this opportunity of Hugo—it is natural to be able to reconcile. Breaking the boat is also a choice. She must seize the opportunity of "Pulp Fiction" to make the last fight.

Therefore, Hugo's little cold reception is basically what was expected. Uma only paused for a while, then took another step and walked towards the beach.

Uma stood not far away, showing the most natural and brilliant smile, "Hey, Hugo, you are here too."

"Bang...bang...oh yeah!" The response to her was the celebratory voice of Hugo and his teammates in the beach volleyball court. Hugo just blocked and scored a point, and everyone was very excited.

Hugo and the others play beach volleyball in an irregular way. There are four people in each team in the venue, so the scene is very lively. Uma's voice was immediately overwhelmed, and she stood still and couldn't help feeling a little scornful. She hesitated, but decided to stand still and wait. The competition will always end, right?
