The night belonging to the Oscars is over, and the glory and turmoil belonging to 1995 are officially over, but life cannot be simply divided into last year and this year. Although it is said that the new year is new, each present is a continuation of the past. The present is also the foundation of the future. Each "now" is unique and complex.

Neal looked at Pedro's resolutely leaving back, stood up, and rushed to the entrance of the hall. He wanted to catch up, but he was still worried about Pedro's situation. Not only was he worried that Pedro could truly enter the drug rehabilitation center on his own, but he hesitated to give up halfway through, or he was poisoned again. Controlled by the addiction center, "sucked one last time before going in" without supervision... and worried that Pedro didn't drive over. Does he rely on his feet to go to the drug rehabilitation center?

But after all, there was no way to keep up, and he was finally trapped in place. Because Neil knew that Henry was right, Pedro had to rely on his determination and perseverance to walk into the ring. In the drugstore, and as Pedro's friends, all they can provide is spiritual support.

Neal looked back at his teammates. Alfonso stood up at this time, looking worriedly at the direction Pedro was leaving, but after all he did not take any steps. He just stood by the dining table. The obscurity of the face is unknown.

As never before, Neil also felt the loss in Hugo's heart, not only a bottleneck, but also a kind of restraint, which firmly bound the band's wanton wings. Next, where should they go, but no one knows the answer.

In the kitchen, the sound of Samora’s fried eggs was still noisy, the fine sea breeze mixed with the salty taste, the surroundings of the villa were still quiet, as if time had always stopped at a certain moment, and it had never changed. . It’s just that each of them knows that everything has changed.

When the early morning came again, the topic of Oscars was noisy, and the TV station officially announced that the average viewership of this year’s Oscars ceremony was as high as 46 million, which is also the best result in the history of Oscars, second only to last year. The moment Guo won the Oscar actor created a record high. At first, people thought that this would be a "boring" awards ceremony, but the result was far beyond everyone's expectations.

This is really a very ironic thing. Just a few hours ago, Hugo was still standing on the stage of Dorothy Chandler Hall to accept the most important trophy of his career so far, becoming the first in film history. An actor who won both the Golden Raspberry Award and the Oscar Award; but now, everything has started to go off track.

Hugo slept in a daze. When he woke up, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon. The whole villa was quiet and no sound was heard. He went downstairs barefoot. Only then did Hugo find out, except for Samora. Besides, everyone has left. Samora, who was reading all the newspapers today, immediately put the newspaper aside and stood up, "Are you hungry?"

This is almost a fixed line of Samora, Hugo twitched the corner of his sore mouth, "I'm really hungry."

Samora immediately stepped into the kitchen, "Wait, I'll prepare afternoon tea for you." Hugo found a place by the dining table and sat down. Samora thought for a while and explained, "Warner There was a meeting with my brother. I originally invited you to go there. But seeing you are so tired, Rick and Joseph rushed over... Alfonso returned to the city. Alfonso said he would stay in Los Angeles recently. Will leave; Neil said he needed to relax and drove out along the coast; Peppa said he was going to the drug rehabilitation center, so he left first and did not receive a call from him for the time being; and Fujin...he was right next to him. golf course."

Hugo didn’t pay attention to Samora at all. He was not interested in the dynamics of his friends, but when he heard Fujin’s part, he couldn’t help but twitched his mouth, but Hugo didn’t ask much. What? I cast my gaze to the sofa, "What were you looking at?"

"Oh, today's major media newspapers are reporting on yesterday’s Oscars. Are you interested?" Samora didn’t say much. He and Hugo were already very familiar with each other, so Samora knew clearly that now What Hugo needs is not comfort or enlightenment, maybe just a moment of tranquility.

Regularly read major newspapers and magazines, and receive the latest information from the entertainment industry. This is a required course for agents and managers. Both Rick and Joseph are persistently doing this work. But now Samora is also beginning to share part of the task, and feedback to Joseph after receiving the information, after all, different perspectives may find different information.

Hugo curled his lips, "Forget it, I guess there is nothing new."

Samora smiled and nodded, "Almost. Everyone thinks that'Brave Heart' won a big victory. This is a step backwards from Oscar, and then everyone says that you deserve the prize."

These contents are all expected. Samora has read nine mainstream newspapers today, and her views are basically the same, and almost everyone gave the headline position to Hugo. This is not just an Oscar actor, the golden figure. , It also means that Hugo truly pushed himself into a unique superstar position. In terms of awards and box office, in the current Hollywood, perhaps only Tom Hanks can barely stand on the same level as Hugo, and Tom It has never been an "idolist", and its overall strength is still inferior to Hugo. Therefore, you can imagine Hugo's strong momentum today.

Of course, many media have also noticed that Hugo has also completed the feat of simultaneously taking the Golden Raspberry Award and Oscar into his arms. This is even more incredible, adding to the mythological color of Hugo’s development curve over the past few years. . The golden plum, which everyone laughed at, rejected, and despised, has now become an anecdote of Hugo's great feats, making the whole story even more incredible.

Life is always like this, good things can be bad things, but bad things can also be good things. The real decision-making power is always the person involved.

"Even Karl said that today's newspapers are too uninspiring. They also satirize the old Oscars. These uncrowned kings are not enterprising." Samora joked with a smile, his tone very relaxed.

However, Samora’s words made Hugo a little stunned. He remembered that two years ago, when he won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor the next morning, almost all his friends gathered in that apartment. There was a lot of noise and laughter. But what about today?

Hugo withdrew his gaze, and withdrew his chaotic thoughts, "There shouldn't be any work these days, right? Rick has any explanation?"

"No, Rick said you can relax first, just leave the work to him and Joe." Samora has already prepared a piece of pasta neatly and put it in front of Hugo, "By the way, Thomas- Wieland sent you an invitation letter, which I just received at noon."

"Who?" Hugo hadn't just woke up, his brain was still a little heavy, and he didn't react for a while.

"Burberry." Samora explained briefly, which made Hugo suddenly realize, and looked towards Samora, and Samora quickly explained, "Burberry's Los Angeles branch was officially opened, and he invited you as a special guest. Attend."

"The branch is only opening now?" Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly, "I thought it was already on the agenda." If Hugo's memory is not confused, he remembers that Thomas was planning this before he moved. Now, more than half a year has passed since this blink of an eye. Is it possible that Burberry’s branch has not been opened until now?

"This matter has been brewing by Burberry. It was announced last Christmas that it will be officially unveiled on April 2 this year. In the past few months, their advertisements have been wave after wave, and it is obvious that there are more ambitious ideas. "Samora is no longer a pure fan. Although his touch of the pulse of Hollywood is not as professional as Rick and Joseph, he can also smell many unusual things. "In fact, I think they are better than any Everyone cares about Oscars. They want you to wear Burberry clothes to win the prize so that the publicity effect will be maximized. Of course, even if you don’t win the prize, the red carpet is enough for them to show off. That’s why their Los Angeles branch. Wait until the unveiling now."

"The plan is well calculated, but who can really say it." Hugo chuckled lightly, lowered his head and began to eat his own pasta.

"This is a matter of vision." Samora supported her hands next to the dining table, watching Hugo eating deliciously, she actually started to swallow her saliva. After thinking about it, she turned around and got busy again, planning to make a plate for herself with the remaining ingredients. , But his mouth didn’t stop You said, if Armani didn’t look away, maybe they are the best now, and only Burberry was willing to invest in you at that time. Now it’s Time to collect the rewards. "

Hugo shook his head, "Even if Armani doesn't have me, it's flourishing. They don't need me." This is true, but for Armani, the most topical Hugo in Hollywood has rejected their costumes. , The loss in the invisibility is huge-Burberry's rise is the best proof, because Burberry seizes the Armani market.

Samora didn't fight with Hugo either. He made himself a plate of pasta, and then sat down at the dining table. Hugo was stunned-it was three o'clock, and Samora didn't have lunch. Samora has learned to ignore Hugo's surprised gaze, and calmly began to enjoy it, "Then you plan to attend? Burberry's unveiling ceremony."

It was just a casual sentence, but Hugo fell silent. After last night, Hugo originally planned to take a good rest and adjust for a period of time, so all the exposure is unnecessary. But now Burberry has come with an invitation letter, and it is estimated that they have no way of predicting what happened last night.

After thinking about it, Hugo nodded, "Well, I plan to go over and take a look. After all, they have always been good to me, haven't they?"
