Hugo nodded and agreed, which made both David and Jeffery smile, because this not only means that Allen’s funds will be injected into DreamWorks, but also means that the development of DreamWorks scripts in the future is bound to be more stable. Of course, this Problems will inevitably arise-differences of opinion between partners always need to seek unification, but overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, which is a better thing for DreamWorks. ()

After watching David and Jeffrey, Allen unexpectedly said, "Hugo, are you sure you want to enter DreamWorks?" This topic has been in the past for a long time, and the four of them have been talking. Talking about the two scripts "Trumen's World" and "Perfectly Perfect", David expressed admiration for Hugo's sanity, and he also agreed with Hugo's choice. Unexpectedly, Allen actually came back around again.

Hugo didn't realize Allen's purpose of bringing up this topic, "Why do you say that?"

"I mean, you are not used to all of this, are you?" After Allen finished speaking, realizing that he hadn't explained clearly at all, he couldn't help but chuckled, then took a deep breath, and then explained again." I mean, you are always a pure actor, a pure singer, you don’t really like these management things behind the scenes, right? So, are you really sure? This will be a new and unfamiliar one. Throne of the world's ten thousand races."

Hugo gently twitched the corner of his mouth, drawing out a shallow smile, but it was shining brightly, "What if I regret it?"

This sentence made Allen stunned, and then caught a trace of joking in Hugo’s eyes, and couldn’t help laughing, "If you regret it, I will respect your choice. Compared with partners, we are first of all friend."

This made Hugo laugh directly. The brisk laughter reverberated gently in the glass of champagne in his hand. "In fact, I am really not familiar with these things. I even think you made a mistake. Choice. I won't be a good company manager." Hugo's words made Allen frowned and exclaimed "Oh, God" in a low voice, causing Hugo to laugh.

"I have been thinking about these issues in recent times. You know, now I am gradually coming into contact with these things. I found that, whether I want to or not, I have stood here, and everything will inevitably come. "Hugo's words made Allen a little bit of his chin, and he had a deep understanding.

From "L.A. Confidential" to "Saving Private Ryan", to "Perfect" and "Trumen's World", the world before Hugo has been turned upside down, not only because he has entered the field of producer, but also because of his role as a producer. The value of the actor has been out of the category of fixed concepts. He has now inevitably reached such a high level. The world he touches, perceives, and experiences is completely different. Four popular works, four different production companies, but almost half of Hollywood involved. Among them, the bright side and dark side transactions are countless, not only dazzling, but also impossible to prevent.

In Hollywood, as an actor, just acting is not good. How to deal with the media, how to use your contacts, how to cooperate with large companies, how to promote cooperation, and how to maintain your image are all compulsory esoteric courses. This is also the reason why excellent agents, managers, and public relations are so popular. At the same time, actors themselves cannot be taken lightly. Otherwise, the countless actors who flash in the night sky like meteors are the best precedents.

Now, Hugo is one step closer than the actors, seeing a complex and chaotic world, the world seems to be so small, just a small town in Hollywood, just a street on Wall Street, can condense more than one percent of the world. Sixty or even more resources and transactions; the world seems so big, standing on a fulcrum, you can see the whole world, as if you can lift up the whole earth with a light effort.

Hugo is not only facing the situation of changing the trajectory of history as an actor, but also changing the pattern of the film industry with his own ability. Although this is a bit exaggerated, the fact is that as long as the power of DreamWorks is strong enough, it can become a model of Hollywood industry rules-just like Disney in the second decade of the 21st century.

This is a huge impact for Hugo, but also a new challenge. As Hugo said, regardless of whether he is willing to admit this fact or not, the reality has come around.

"Fortunately, I have a group of good friends." Hugo glanced at Alan while he was talking, which made Alan laugh.

In the past period of time, Rick, Joseph, Samora and others have given Hugo tremendous help, allowing Hugo to smoothly survive one crisis after another, and gradually grow up. In addition, Allen’s invitation is also very important, because Allen is giving Hugo a fair bargaining chip, and can always leave himself room in the competition with other large film companies-DreamWorks has always been Hugo's first choice and guaranteed choice. This allows Hugo to have more chips when facing big names like Shirley Lansing, Kevin Pence, Barry Meyer, and Robert Iger.

Hugo knows this well.

"So, I thought, maybe this is a challenge, but it's also an opportunity, why not try it?" Hugo came to his own conclusion, "What's more, we are not talking about it. I am not involved in the business part. Only responsible for the production part." From cartoons to movies to music, Hugo, the three major divisions of DreamWorks, are no strangers. "So, I think I still have some right to speak."

Seeing the smile on Alan’s face, Hugo raised the champagne in his right hand, took a slight meal in the air, and then put his index finger, "But don’t be too optimistic, maybe I will ruin it by myself. The enchanting life of rebirth. At that time you have lost a huge amount, and I have no way to compensate."

Alan pressed his lips slightly, a simple smile was drawn at the corner of his mouth, and he replied solemnly, "You can repay with your body."

"Puff", Hugo directly spouted a small sip of champagne from his mouth. Hugo originally saw Alan's serious smile and thought he was going to say something, but in the end he came up with such unprepared words. Unexpectedly, he immediately made a gaffe.

However, Hugo looked at Alan, whose suit chest was completely wet in front of him, and was stunned, but he laughed, "It’s better to have enough zeros on the check." A retort choked Alan, but But he couldn't refute it, and in the end he could only laugh with Hugo.

"It seems that you are still in good spirits. What I was worried about earlier is that there is no need for it." Tom Cruise's familiar voice came from behind. As soon as he turned around, he saw Tom and Nicole Kidman. "I just told Nicole that you must have been very hard tonight, and we don't want to burden you anymore, but now, obviously we think too much."

"If you can feel the hardships in my empty stomach, you will know my true state now." Hugo made a joke that made everyone laugh, "Let me introduce you, this is Alan Shi Trello, this is Tom Cruise, and this is Nicole Kidman."

"We met once at a charity party before." Tom took the initiative to say, "but it was a pity that we didn't get a chance to talk in depth."

"Tom was a well-deserved absolute focus that night. I wanted to step forward to say hello, but I was worried that it would be too abrupt." Allen said politely.

Seeing the two people being so polite, Hugo raised his right hand, "That's because I wasn't there that day." A joke made everyone stunned, and then they all laughed, even Tom himself smiled helplessly. .

"It seems that your humorous cells are indeed worth looking forward to." Tom raised his eyebrows and gritted his teeth at Hugo. Hugo raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and Tom rolled his eyes, "You better pray. There is no kiss scene in this work, otherwise you will definitely regret it."

Hugo cast a panicked look at Nicole for help, causing Nicole to chuckled, "I didn't expect that we would really cooperate. I thought it would be'perfect'."

Nicole still maintained her usual elegance, with the perfect arc on the corners of her mouth, "I also thought it would be'perfect'." This is asking why Hugo did not appear in "Perfect", making Hugo laugh. "However,'Trumen's World' may be a more daunting challenge. I read the script twice and felt that the heroine has very limited space to play, but she needs to show many things. This is really a headache."

Although Nicole's words are asking questions, they are not the feeling of discussion. It can be heard that she is just sharing topics.

Every actor has different habits The style of cooperation is naturally different. Nicole obviously doesn't like the type of exchanging experience and sharing skills with others. She is more accustomed to acting in her own way and rhythm, focusing on her performance.

Hugo doesn't mind discussing roles and plots with others, but he also knows that this is not applicable to everyone, just like he needs to be 100% invested when studying roles, otherwise it will be difficult to truly enter the state. "I'm still studying comedy performance now, and I hope I won't ruin this excellent script."

"They're talking about these boring things again." Tom wrinkled his nose and looked at Alan, and said jokingly, which caused everyone to laugh.

At this moment, an unfamiliar face came over with a smile, but he didn't rush to interrupt or leave. When Hugo cast an inquiring gaze, he walked forward with a smile. , Shook Hugo's right hand, "Mr. Lancaster, happy birthday."

Hugo was stunned. Today is not his birthday at all, and this is already the seventh person to say so today, but... he still smiled, with a strange expression on his face, "Thank you." Alan standing next to him. , Tom and Nicole looked at Hugo's struggling expression, they all lowered their heads and smiled, very hard.
