Chapter 1171： 3 Be silent

Nicholas suddenly felt that what Austin said just now was probably true: Hugo really encouraged Brian. Because these two 15-year-old paparazzi are really interesting.

Hearing Nicholas’ question, both Austin and Brian fell into deep thought.

Brian suddenly thought of something. He raised his head and looked in the direction where Hugo was again. He took a closer look at the person Hugo was talking to. Then his eyes lit up, "Actually, Hugo is also preparing for the shooting. right?"

Nicholas raised his eyebrows lightly. "What do you say?"

Brian seemed to be encouraged, and immediately said, "Hugo was talking with Morgan first, and then with David briefly, and now he is talking with Andrew for a long time. On the one hand, Hugo is talking with the crew. When dealing with personnel, all of us know that if the crew can have a tacit understanding or even sparks, it will be twice the result with half the effort for shooting..."

Nicholas was a little surprised by Bryan's keenness, but Bryan hasn't said everything yet. Joseph and Samora are not just distributing coffee. The staff will not lack a cup of coffee, and the power of just a cup of coffee is not enough to win over the crew. The two of them are actually dealing with all aspects of the crew, so that the strangers who have just joined the crew quickly become familiar with the crew and activate the crew. atmosphere of.

"On the other hand," Brian's speculation continued, "Hugo is exchanging ideas with his partners and sharing each other's views on the characters. This is another way of preparing for the performance. You see, Hugo So happy to have a chat with Andrew." Andrew Kevin Walker, screenwriter of "The Seven Deadly Sins".

"What if they were just chatting?" Nicholas asked Brian stunned. Indeed, no one knew what Hugo and Andrew were talking about. It was possible that they were just chatting about some interesting things.

Seeing Brian’s expression, Nicholas smiled contentedly, “Believe me, Hugo always knows what he’s doing. On the surface, he doesn’t seem to be preparing, but he has his own set of methods. Brad's deliberate act of acting is much more effective."

Nicholas once interviewed the crew of "Schindler's List" in depth, and he has a new understanding of Hugo's dedication. In many cases, Hugo builds up his own blueprint for his role by communicating with different people. For example, in the role of Amon Goss, Hugo is actually just sitting next to a group of Jews, listening to their chats quietly, without asking questions, but just from those small chats that seem to have nothing to do with the character. Hugo constructed the environment and atmosphere of the time, and then shaped the role.

It can be said that Hugo's preparation method is the same as his performance method, delicate and deep, freely retractable, and three points into the woods. Often before the audience realizes it, the characteristics of the character are already in the mind.

In Nicholas's opinion, Brad was obviously deliberately acting for the on-site staff under the arrangement of his agent; but Hugo was obviously preparing according to his own method.

Taking a step back, the role preparation is not a matter of urgency, and now to be serious, it is completely temporary. What were you doing during the time before the shooting? Now there is less than half an hour left before the start-up ceremony. It is really too deliberate to make serious preparations.

However, it must be admitted that in many cases superficial skills can confuse most people.

"I'm going to interview Hugo, do you want to be together?" Nicholas saw James who was late and knew there was no need to observe here secretly. He asked, but the two little guys cheered excitedly. , This makes Nicholas very helpless.

James is negotiating with the staff, saying that he wants to go and interview Hugo first. After confirming James's interview card, the staff said that he would first ask Hugo or his manager to know. James stood there waiting, and when he looked back, he saw Nicholas and the two oil bottles behind him, "What's the matter?"

Nicholas had a calm expression on his face, "A news clue."

James was stunned, "Whose illegitimate child?" This reaction resulted in a big roll of Nicholas's eyes.

"Hey, Hugo!" Bryan's excited voice tremblingly came from behind. James and Nicholas looked up and saw Hugo smiling on their faces.

"God, God, God..." Austin's excited voice seemed very happy at this time, and James couldn't help but glance back again.

"Guys, I remember that the press conference for the opening ceremony will be a while." Hugo saw a familiar face, and his expression was relatively relaxed, but before Nicholas or James could answer, Brian jumped out behind him, "Lan Mr. Caster, Mr. Lancaster...Do you remember me?"

"You..." Hugo held Brian's right hand with a struggling expression. He felt that the boy in front of him was really familiar, but he couldn't remember it. Facial blindness is really embarrassing.

"In November last year, Burbank, you came to visit Cameron Diaz's class?" Bryan burst out a series of words, and Hugo thought carefully, "Aha! You are that...very Young and young paparazzi!"

"Yes, I have officially become a professional paparazzi now. This is my good friend, Austin Wichdecker." Brian jumped up and down and yelled, barely screaming.

Seeing this scene before him, James glanced at Nicholas with a look of surprise, but Nicholas raised his hands innocently, indicating that he had nothing to do with this.

After the introduction, Brian did not care about taking care of his friends who were overexcited and still in aphasia, and immediately asked excitedly, "Excuse me, you were chatting with the screenwriter and director just now. Are you talking about the role?" Ryan threw out the question just now.

"Oh, no, no." Hugo shook his head again and again, "We were just chatting about what was surrounded by reporters today." In fact, Hugo and Andrew and Morgan still talked about the script and characters. After all, this It is the job of building their bridges. But Hugo did not intend to tell the reporters in front of him, not even friends.

Brian looked disappointed, and cast his gaze on Brad not far away. Brad also looked over at this time, and was not looking at the script at all. He noticed Brian's line of sight, and Brad withdrew his gaze in a panic. Brian couldn't help but curl his lips, as expected! If you really devote yourself to the preparation of the script, it is certainly not that easy to get distracted!

Nicholas was more calm than Brian, and asked directly, "Now it seems that the competition has already begun. Are you ready?"

Hugo laughed loudly, "Isn't competition always there?" Hugo certainly knew that Nicholas was suggesting Brad, but what he said was the truth. This is Hollywood, even if it wasn't Brad, it would There are other competitors. For Hugo, he is not afraid of competition, but he will not lose his way because of competition. He always keeps in mind: being a good one is the first step and the most important thing. If your performance does not complete the task, even if there is no competitor, it is still a failure.

James was relieved, he could feel his strong self-confidence from Hugo's tone, even in the face of Brad's aggressiveness, Hugo still seemed calm.

"Can you tell me why you chose this work?" James asked, "I believe you should have a lot of choices. Among so many scripts, you have chosen the'Seven Deadly Sins' because you have taken a fancy to it. What are the characteristics of it?"

Hugo did not answer positively, but widened his eyes, "You have already started the opening ceremony ahead of schedule." A sentence made James also laugh, "Of course it is because this script is good enough. I like this script. That's why I took it down."

"But you didn't play the leading actor in the play, did you?" Since the current assignment of movie roles is still a cloud of fog, Brian seemed a little hesitant when he asked questions, and stopped halfway through his words.

Nicholas took over the following words, "Everyone is guessing what kind of character your role is?'Not the most important role', then is it a co-star or a supporting actor?" The previous message was " "Los Angeles Times" reported, but Nicholas did not have any further specific information on this.

"Wait, wait..." Hugo waved his hand again and again, "You can wait until the press conference after the opening ceremony to ask these questions. Why bother to ask me now? I need to answer twice. It's not too much. Is it troublesome."

Nicholas vaguely thought it was a little strange, but he couldn't tell why. Hugo seemed to make a lot of sense, so he asked, "These two boys claim to be paparazzi. You have actually been interviewed by them before. ?"

Hugo did not evade this time, but nodded, "Yes, I have dealt with Brian before. To be honest, the fifteen-year-old paparazzi shocked me. But now it seems that they Well done isn't it?"

"If you can provide us with some exclusives, that would be great!" Brian said with a look of anticipation.

Hugo laughed dumbly and shook his head, "Trust me, you wouldn't wish for such a day." Now Hugo treats the two of them as children, if they show the true colors of "paparazzi", in Hugo's eyes It is no different from other crows. And Hugo's treatment of crows has always been not gentle, "If you don't believe it, you can ask them." Hugo pointed to Nicholas and James standing aside.

In the doubtful eyes of Brian and Austin, James could only change the subject again, "How does it feel to start shooting again after half a year?"

This is not a formal interview. Both parties seemed very relaxed, as if they were small talk. But Nicholas always felt that something was wrong. When Hugo left, Nicholas suddenly flashed an idea: keep his mouth shut! He finally noticed that something was wrong. Hugo did not respond positively to the script, characters and other content of the movie. Even if it was not a formal question, but just casual chat, Hugo was impervious.

Is this because he thinks too much, and it will be announced at a press conference in a while; or is it because he guessed it, something really strange?
