When Hugo returned to his apartment in Beverly Hills, it was already past four in the morning. Recently, because they are all filming in the city, Hugo lives in the apartment and did not go back to Malibu.
Pushing open the apartment door, Hugo saw the creamy light in the room. Rick Rosen, who was sitting in the living room and flipping through the Los Angeles Times, looked up, "It ended earlier than I expected. This morning What time does work start?"
Hugo looked back at Joseph, who was following, cast a suspicious look-Joseph did not tell him that Rick would come on the way back just now, "The scene with Charlize and I will begin this afternoon, and we will shoot Russell in the morning. Part." Hugo still explained.
Rick saw Hugo's sight and put the newspaper on the coffee table, "Joe hasn't had a chance to talk to you about what happened today, right?" Hugo's face was puzzled with the question mark "What happened today", obviously. I don't know what Rick is talking about. Rick was not in a hurry, "Today's things are a bit more complicated. You can take a bath and relax, and we will talk about it in detail after we get out."
Hugo looked back and forth between Joseph and Rick. In the end, he shrugged helplessly, turned and walked towards the bathroom, and Samora’s shout came from behind, “I’m making supper, who Want to eat?"
Standing in the bathroom, the warm water slapped Hugo's head, gradually calming the surging heart tonight. Rarely, Hugo took a long time to take a shower this time. When he came out, Rick and Joseph sat quietly in the hall without talking. Samora was standing behind the sofa and gnawing with a piece of pizza. The atmosphere looked a little weird.
"So, what happened today?" Hugo walked over to the sofa and sat down while wiping his hair. Samora compared the pizza in his hand and asked Hugo if he wanted to eat it. Hugo shook his head, "Please give me a cup of coffee, thank you, I am a little tired now."
Rick and Joseph looked at each other, and finally Rick said, "Today—it’s actually yesterday. Steven invited you to play'Saving Private Ryan', right? What do you think?"
"Yes, I am also wondering what happened. Didn't the James Ryan role company find a suitable actor?" Hugo didn't think much, and directly asked his question. The content of yesterday’s filming was a bit too full, so Hugo kept the doubts in his heart and did not raise them. Only then did he gain some room for thinking. "Steven also told me that now the actor Cast has not looked for it. Complete, so, is there something wrong with this project?"
Hugo does not know much about the company's business, but it does not mean that he does not know anything. After receiving a call from Steven, Hugo also sensitively perceives the changes behind it.
Rick didn’t directly answer Hugo’s question, but instead asked, “So, what do you think? Do you want to play this script? Anyway, this is Steven’s project, as you mentioned earlier. Yes, if there is a chance to work with him again, it will be great; this script has also been affirmed by you, hasn’t it?"
It has been three years since Rick and Hugo have cooperated. They renewed the cooperation contract last year. Rick also has sufficient grasp of Hugo's personality and preferences. The cooperation between the two has always been very easy and happy.
At this time, Samora came over with coffee, Hugo took the hot coffee, the familiar fragrance of coffee relieved his tired brain a little, "Rick, objectively speaking,'Save Private Ryan' is indeed It’s a very good script. I think this script is comparable to Schindler’s List, and I would even like Ryan more; besides, Steven is my friend and so is Tom. I will not refuse any cooperation opportunities."
No matter from which point of view, "Saving Private Ryan" is a script that is very worthy of acting. Even the role of James Ryan is challenging. It shows that Matt Damon could not explain it. It’s a very interesting thing to dig further into the movie when it arrives.
"However, from a personal point of view, I am actually more inclined not to play." Although Hugo has not made a final decision, in fact, after receiving the call from Steven today, he has initial thoughts, "You As you all know, I have been busy creating a script lately. If I can, I hope to focus on this script. If I play "Saving Private Ryan", my script must be put on hold for at least half a year. "After speaking, Hugo paused, and carefully looked at the expressions of Rick and Joseph. He could clearly feel the fullness of the two of them, "But...I haven't made the final decision yet."
Just as far as Steven Spielberg’s friendship is concerned, Hugo will not easily refuse, not to mention that "Saving Private Ryan" is still such an excellent project, from the script to the role to the cast, it is rare. One-time project.
Hugo paused while holding the coffee, his eyes swept back between Rick and Joseph, "So, I can clearly feel that something is not right, what else you haven't told me? Is it the company and history? There’s something wrong with Tim’s cooperation? Is there anything I can do to help?"
Although Hugo and Steven have a good personal relationship, and the cooperation between Endeavour Elite Agency and DreamWorks is also on the right track, business is business. No matter what decision Steven makes, he always regards "saving private Ryan" as his goal. The starting point. Therefore, Hugo is also uncertain whether he can help.
Rick smiled bitterly, adjusted his sitting posture, leaned forward slightly, and watched Hugo earnestly said, "Actually, things are more complicated. Things should start from...well, last year's summer vacation?" Rick didn’t say too many details, only the main context, but even so, he said it for nearly a quarter of an hour. “So, Steven didn’t do anything wrong, even if he chose other actors, we didn’t. Words can be said."
"You mean, Steven has already met Matt Damon?" Hugo glanced at Joseph. Joseph helplessly raised his hands in a surrender gesture, saying that he didn't care-after all, those things It's been a few years, and he doesn't need to worry about it.
"Yes, twice." Rick nodded.
Hugo took a sip of coffee and tried to make his mind clearer, "So, you mean, no matter whether I take over the role of James Ryan or not, there will be things waiting for us in the future?"
"From a global perspective, it is true." Rick nodded. He also had a seven-hour meeting at the company last night, and now his brain is a bit slow. "But we can't just mess around because of the opponent's footsteps. , We can only make adjustments according to our own situation. Therefore, if you nod your head and agree to take over this role, we will naturally push forward the project of "Saving Private Ryan". As for the things that haven't happened in the future, we can't do it. Presupposition; if you refuse, then our plan also needs to make some adjustments, for example, the script you are currently writing, or another script for you, we don’t know what the situation will be... "
When playing chess, it is not easy to grasp the overall situation, because there are too many possibilities in a chessboard. Hugo has no way to know what abacus is behind the international innovation management company, nor can he know what role William Morris Agency, Creative Artist Agency, and United Elite Agency play in this chess game. What Hugo can do now is to focus on the present and clarify the questions that Rick raised.
"Wait, if I understand correctly, the question is not whether I am willing to play the role of James Ryan, but whether the actors provided by our company can meet Steven's requirements, right?" Hugo Brain Suddenly, he came up with his own ideas.
Rick was stunned, thinking carefully, and then shrugging, "Of course, from the very beginning, Steven didn't want you to join the crew, but he could only consider you when he had no choice. . For the company, the perfect situation is that Steven finds an actor that he is satisfied with, and you can spare the time to start another project...this is also our first plan."
To put it simply, Hugo’s commercial value is immeasurable. Asking him to play a "James Ryan" and gather with Tom Hanks This is actually a waste. If it were not for no choice, Steven would not call Hugo. From this perspective, the reason Steven would call Hugo shows that he still hopes to cooperate with Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company, and Matt Damon is still not the best choice.
Hugo pursed his lips slightly, and the bitter coffee aroma lingered between his lips and teeth. "You just said that this is a difficulty and an opportunity for the company. If we can handle it well, then maybe we will welcome it. Come to a whole new situation?"
Following "Independence Day" and "L.A. Confidential", to create a successful "Saving Private Ryan"-and on the premise of the most efficient use of company resources, if Hugo plays another successful movie Works, then... "Indeed, if we can handle it well, the company will usher in a qualitative leap." Rick nodded.
This is true for any challenge. After going all out, it will either be a complete failure and be broken into pieces, or break through difficulties and jump over the dragon gate. The more difficult the challenge, the greater the opportunity. This is the biggest crisis since the establishment of Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company, but it is also the biggest opportunity.
Hugo gently swept the upper part of the teeth with the tip of his tongue, savoring the bitter sweetness, then raised his eyes and smiled at Rick and Joseph in front of him, "Maybe, I have a solution."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
