Chapter 941： Senior party

\"&　　 Regardless of whether Hugo is interested in "007", today's dinner is very important to Rick, and he knows this very clearly.

The film company, not to mention MGM has not yet reached the level of "skinny death"; George-Lucas, Steven Yi's dinner party, you can imagine the weight of the guests present; the new "007" choice, the scene will definitely be There are many high-level brokers present, and they can be guessed with their toes. The current three major brokerage companies will not be absent...

Connecting all these clues, you will know how important this dinner is to Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company.

Strictly speaking, Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company is not eligible for this kind of dinner at all, but they rely on Hugo as a stepping stone to obtain admission tickets. No wonder Rick is so cautious; and the reason why Rick asked Hugo to bring Came Long attending is not only the role of a female companion, but Cameron is also an actor of the Endeavour Elite Agency. He can completely let Ali-Emanuel or other senior partners enter the dinner scene together.

Hugo himself is one of the owners of the Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company, and he naturally hopes that the company’s development can be on the right track as soon as possible; even if this is aside, Hugo got acquainted with top figures such as Steven and David Geffen. After that, he also knew that this was just the tip of the iceberg. He was only exposed to a trivial part of the current Hollywood connections. Therefore, from any point of view, he must attend the dinner.

Since Steven invited Hugo on the grounds of a "private party", and there are not a few hours left before the dinner begins, Hugo and Cameron must not be dressed up, but they must not be too simple and casual. , It must be in line with the style of the dinner party, this kind of scale is really not easy to grasp.

It's a dinner party, but it's definitely not the kind of sitting down to have dinner face to face, but a buffet party. Arriving too early or arriving too late is not a wise choice. Rick and Ali arrived at their destination at a quarter past eight, while Hugo and Cameron, accompanied by Samora and Joseph, were "long overdue" half an hour later.

Today’s dinner was held in Malibu, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and held in a quiet and peaceful place. When Hugo and his party arrived at the door of the villa, they were stopped by the guard at the door. He politely walked forward and asked After Samora rolled down the window and confirmed the true identities of Hugo and Cameron, he checked with the guest list in his hand before putting them in.

There are not many guests at this kind of high-end dinner, and people who can arrive here are all well-known people. Therefore, compared with the invitation letter, a face is the best pass. If you get stuck at the door, but the guard can't recognize it, this is the biggest humiliation for an actor.

Due to the strict security system at the door, all the thirteen paparazzi cars following Hugo were stopped outside, which made Hugo clap his hands and applaud.

In fact, when he went out today, Hugo originally wanted to get rid of the paparazzi, but the paparazzi was not so easy to get rid of. Especially after Cameron came back to Los Angeles today, they were even more reluctant to give up.

Secondly, today’s dinner is obviously also a reporter who can't hide the magical powers. Maybe they secretly inform the media to come to "dig out" the news, then Hugo does not need to cover up. If MGM wants to keep secrets completely, then they must have corresponding measures. Even if the paparazzi follow the scene, it will not be so easy to succeed.

Therefore, Hugo finally went out with a bunch of tails.

After crossing the spacious front courtyard, it takes at least fifteen minutes to walk. Samora stopped the car at the top of the long staircase. A waiter in a tuxedo stepped forward and opened the door for Hugo. The famous waiter looked up, and then gave Hugo a gentle smile, "Good evening, Mr. Lancaster, is the traffic still smooth along the way?"

Obviously, the waiter got the information from the security guard at the door and called out Hugo's name as soon as he came up. After Hugo smiled and paid his respects, he reached out and took Cameron out of the car. The waiter politely bowed 30 degrees again, "Miss Diaz, good evening, I hope you have a good night." Then the waiter bent over and stretched out his hand. Signaled, let Hugo and Cameron follow him forward.

Hugo looked back at Joseph, and Joseph motioned to let Hugo and Cameron go up first, and he and Samora would naturally follow him in a while. In such a private party, managers will certainly not stay in step with the actors, they also have their own circle. Managers are different from agents. They are more like the half spokesperson of artists, so there is an invisible network in their circle.

Hugo took Cameron up to the marble steps in front of him. The raging sea breeze on the steps rushed in from all directions, making this midsummer night a bit of chill. Fortunately, the steps are not long. Hugo and Cameron quickly came to the gate and entered the hall under the guidance of the waiter.

Walking into the lobby, the warm lights came down, Hugo asked Cameron in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

Cameron wore a black one-line skirt tonight, matched with a white shirt, dignified but not sexy, casual and not grand, simple and generous with a pair of red fingerless high heels, the whole person is bright Up. She knew that Hugo was worried that she was wearing too little clothes, and the seaside was still different. She smiled and shook her head at Hugo, "I'm fine."

At this time Hugo had time to look at the situation in front of him. The crowd in the hall was not as large as imagined, only more than 30 people. Of course, the villa was so big that Hugo could only see the sight in front of him, but at least it can prove it. , This is indeed a private party, because there are not too many actors in Hugo's sight.

The waiter who led Hugo and Cameron in left, but then a waiter came up and asked them what drink they needed. Hugo asked for two glasses of champagne, and then looked up and saw Roland-Parkin had walked in front of him. "have not seen you for a long time."

Roland is one of the senior partners of Jianxin Artist Management Company. At the beginning, he personally digs out Hugo, even using Quentin Tarantino and "Pulp Fiction" to make a little unpleasant, but in fact, Roland Being able to become a top figure in the brokerage industry is naturally for a reason. After the failure of the negotiation, he still maintained a gentlemanly demeanor, and there has been no minor actions behind him in the past six months-at least it hasn't affected Hugo.

Roland smiled and shook hands with Hugo, and then politely looked at Cameron, "Dear Miss Diaz, the "Ghost in Disguise" is really amazing, but I didn't expect it to be when I saw a real person today. He got more visual enjoyment." The gentleman has no shortage of humor, politeness, and closeness. The most important thing is that he does not regard Cameron as Hugo’s female companion, but an independent individual. This is especially true. It's rare.

Sure enough, Cameron's original nervousness has also been somewhat relieved, and the smile on his face has also become more natural. "I think ladies always like these sweet words, and I am no exception." Cameron's clear and hearty laughter Roland also chuckled lightly.

"I just talked to Rick for a while, and I was betting with him whether you would choose the next work first or release the second album first." Roland's jokes are indeed very standard and interesting, but they are With a little temptation.

The smile on Hugo's face was also relaxed, "Can I participate in this bet? I swear, I am also very curious about the result." Hugo's humor made Roland smile all over his face, but he knew that Hugo was a detour. Past his question.

Without waiting for Roland to say more, someone came over again. It was Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. "Hey, dear Hugo." It was Nicole who said hello, with her face on her face. With a dignified and enthusiastic smile.

After a few people said hello, Roland said goodbye, leaving the Cruise couple.

After Tom watched Roland leave, "So, Roland has already started?" Hugo cast his eyes in amazement, Tom then explained, "The actor he represents is also one of the competitors, and the voice is the loudest." Hugo Chana It will be understood from time to time.

Hugo and Tom can't be said to be friends, because the two have no personal relationship, but the relationship is pretty good. Regardless of Tom’s acting skills or personal life, and simply speaking of Tom’s personality, he is indeed a very charismatic person. That’s why he has been able to stay in Hollywood Changhong for nearly 30 years, and he has repeatedly handed out an olive branch to Hugo. , Even if two people have had several head-on competitions.

As if now, Tom not only relieved Hugo, but also reminded him.

Hugo chuckled slightly, "I remember you and Roland belong to the same company." Tom and Brad-Pitt are both owned by Jianxin Artist's agency, so it is also traceable that the two of them can star in "Interview with the Vampire" together. Followable. Within Jianxin Artist Agency, due to the special system, their internal competition is not so fierce But the actors are different. Obviously Tom and Brad are a pair of competitors.

Hugo can guess that the internal resources of Jianxin Artist's management company are leaning towards Brad and want to favor Brad, but Tom, who has already become famous and flourishing, is naturally not happy to see such a situation. Perhaps this is also one of the reasons why Tom has repeatedly shown his favor to Hugo.

Hugo's ridicule made Tom laugh, "Business is business, and friends are friends. These are two different things. What's more, I'm just an outsider." Tom's brilliant smile can be described as a magnificent person, deducting his height. In addition to the disadvantages, the "Atango" in the 80s and 90s is indeed amazing, even Hugo, who is also a man, can't help but admire.

Tom’s “outsider” is actually saying that he has nothing to do with James Bond alternate tonight. If Hugo understands this, he will naturally know how to answer; if he doesn’t understand, then Tom will also When nothing happens in general.

Hugo raised his eyebrows lightly, "Why don't I?" With a sentence, Tom was slightly stunned, and then pursed his lips and laughed, "It seems that tonight is a carnival." (To be continued. [Provided].
