Superstar - Chapter 2143

Rick did have a few projects today to let Hugo read it, but after looking around, he found that he had forgotten his briefcase in the car, and had to run out temporarily, making Hugo laugh — -Rick, who is always shrewd and savvy at ordinary times, has occasions when he is left behind. This is really joyful.

After a while, Rick ran back out of breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead with embarrassment, “I have been so busy these two days that I can’t remember anything in my head.” Ke put the briefcase next to him, and while taking things out of it, he continued to ask, “‘Beautiful Mind’ is about to be released. Steven thinks that this work has the hope of impacting the Oscars, and possibly even impacting. Your third actor, Golden Man, but…you know…”

Although Rick didn’t continue to speak, Hugo understood it all at once.

At present, Hugo has won a total of four statuettes. Counted by the year the movie was released, they are the best supporting actor in 1993, the best actor in 1995, the best original screenplay in 1997, and the best actor in 1998. main character. In short, Hugo won four statuettes in five years. The frequency of winning prizes is too intensive.

Why are there so few artists who have successively won Oscar statuettes in history? One is because it is too difficult to dedicate classic masterpieces for two consecutive years and three consecutive years; the other is because of the unspoken rules of the industry-it is impossible to get all awards by one person. This needs to be balanced.

Throughout the long history of Oscars, only nine of all the awards have achieved Lianchuang. Tom Hanks completed the actor Lianchuang in 1993 and 1994, and Spencer Cusser realized the actor Lianchuang in 1937 and 1938. Re-elected, Jason Robards (.) won the Best Supporting Actor Award for two consecutive years in 1976 and 1977.

Louis Reiner (.) won the title of actress in 1937 and 1938, respectively, and Catherine Hepburn completed the actress in 1967 and 1968.

Federico Fellini (.) won the best foreign language film award in 1956 and 1957 consecutively, and Ingmar Bergman (Ingmar. Bergman) also achieved the best foreign language film in 1960 and 1961 The reelection. In addition, John Ford (.) won the best director award for two consecutive years in 1940 and 1941; Joseph L-Mankiewicz also completed the best director award in 1949 and 1950.

In the 70-year history of Oscars, more than two hundred golden figures have been awarded, but only this individual has achieved such a feat, and it is worth mentioning that most of them were in the early days of the Oscars, except for Tom- Hanks achieved this feat in the nineties, and all the other winners did it before the seventies.

It can be seen that as the Oscars become more and more open, competitions are becoming more and more extensive, and competition is becoming more and more fierce. It is true that the various film markets are showing a pattern of blooming flowers, and it is even more incredible to complete the re-election. Except for the true Oscar darlings of Catherine Hepburn, Meryl Streep, Emma Thompson, and Marlon Brando, it is too difficult to win consecutive prizes in just five or ten years. high.

Above the Oscars, there are “guilt votes,” “compensation votes,” and “contribution votes.” To put it simply, Hugo has won four gold medals in the past five years, and has reached the height of no one before and after. , Even the “Oscar darling” is not enough to describe his achievements. If he continues to win awards, what will other actors do? What about the 200,000 registered members of the American Screen Actors Guild? Do other actors continue to act? Do they still have the qualifications to compete for the little golden man? Is there any more suspense about Oscars that people look forward to?

Just as after the second decade of the 21st century, the Weinstein brothers’ “monopoly” over the Oscars triggered a frenzy against them in Hollywood. If Hugo continues to win awards, it is estimated that all people in Hollywood will join forces. Oppose Hugo.

Therefore, if Hugo wants to use the “beautiful mind” to once again hit the title of actor-this will not only be the fourth acting trophy in six years, but also the third actor in film history to achieve the title of actor. It is as big as the sky; then both Steven and Rick believe that Hugo must join the ranks of the college public relations, build a good relationship with the college members, and even please the college members to promote this historic moment.

In other words, during the awards season, Hugo must show up frequently to cooperate with publicity and public relations.

Hugo was stunned, and then laughed, “Rick, now you don’t even see the finished product, just talk about these things, isn’t it too early?”

Faced with Hugo’s teasing, Rick shook his head and said simply, “No.”

Hugo took a closer look and found that Rick was serious, which made him choke. He could not help but think about it seriously, “To be honest, I personally think that it is a good thing to be able to win an award, but it is not a bad thing to be able to win an award.” After experiencing the ups and downs of his career as an actor, Hugo’s current mentality has completely calmed down. After that, he has created a history that ordinary people can’t imagine. There is no need to be too greedy. Even if he straightens his normal heart, he still realizes his dream. “What’s more, in the next period of time, I don’t think I have time. Go to those parties.”

Rick immediately understood what Hugo meant-he would not participate in the academy’s public relations activities during the awards season, and everything would go with the flow. In fact, he still has some regrets in his heart, but he also knows that what Hugo said is correct, and people cannot be too greedy. Rick let out a long breath, “Well, I get it.”

Immediately, Rick handed the documents in his hand to Hugo, “You can simply look through it to see if you are interested. If so, I will ask Samora to bring it to you. If not…” Then Yu Guo took the conversation, “You can use me as a shield to reject them all.” Rick couldn’t help but laughed and nodded, “Your name is better than mine. If it were me, it would be Scolded to death, but you are different.”

Hugo took a sip of coffee and flipped through it at will.

Objectively speaking, the scripts that can be delivered to Hugo at present are bound to be unique scripts, not necessarily big investments and large productions, but you can definitely find a lot of bright spots. With Hugo’s current status, it is no exaggeration to say that as long as he is willing to nod, there is no script that he can’t receive.

Therefore, Hugo saw many familiar works in his hands, which are worthy of consideration.

Warner Bros. handed over two scripts, “Eleven Arhats (‘s. Eleven and “Training Day (. Day, both works are very topical, especially the latter, which is also Hugo’s favorite In one of his works, in the movie, Denzel Washington gave an amazing performance.

Disney took an ambitious work, “Pearl Harbor”. This work is also an attempt by Disney to connect with the blockbuster era. Although it has become an important turning point in the decline of Michael Bay’s career, the sensation and topic created when it was released that year should not be underestimated.

Sony Columbia Pictures and Ridley Scott’s collaboration “Black Hawk Down (. Hawk. This real historical event was put on the big screen, and the preparatory stage attracted much attention. I did not expect the script to come to Hugo. On hand. This work is definitely not inferior to “Saving Private Ryan” in the rendering and construction of war scenes, but the excavation of core ideas is slightly lacking.

In the twentieth century, Fox put the “Moulin Rouge (. script on Rick’s desk, which is also a brilliant work of re-songs and dances; the most interesting is Universal Pictures, which actually put “speed and passion (The. Fast. And. The. This project was handed over, but instead of inviting Hugo to appear, he hoped that Hugo would be the producer, hoping to make this film a masterpiece similar to “Speed ​​of Life and Death”.

In addition, there are actually several original novel projects mixed in it, and it is obvious that Hugo can adapt it.

After reading it briefly, Hugo couldn’t help but chuckle, “Everyone regards me as a superman.” Hollywood is like this. After a person became popular, almost all roles and scripts swarmed up, wishing to take this person’s residual value. Squeeze it all dry, and when that day comes, the speed at which people leave can even be described by the speed of light, making people fall directly into the bottomless abyss.

Looking at the project in hand, this is obviously the case. No matter what role or subject matter, as long as there is a little feasibility, I will push it toward Hugo, hoping to continue this cash cow and make a lot of money. But the fact is that even if Hugo challenges comedy and horror movies, he is still not a panacea.

For example, “Moulin Rouge”, in fact, Hugo is completely unsuitable. Although he is a singer, he has no knowledge of dance, and his research on opera is also close to zero; another example is “Pearl Harbor~www.mtlnovel. com~ With Michael Bay’s personality, the explosion is the protagonist of the movie. The actor is just a pin-up match, there is no need for Hugo to play it.

Rick also smiled, “You should look at the scripts on my desk. Our daily entertainment program is to see how outrageous the projects are.”

Hugo was also amused. He simply flipped through these items. In the end, he pushed all the items to Rick, including his very beloved “training day”-because Hugo knew that the movie was huge. Part of the reason for this success is that it involves racial issues. Denzel Washington’s black advantage cannot be replaced. Therefore, these projects as a whole cannot move Hugo.

Rick doesn’t mind. Now, even if Hugo makes one movie a year or even two years, there is absolutely no problem. He doesn’t have to worry at all, so he simply put all the projects away and talked about it. , “When I was having dinner with Barry yesterday, he also said, are you interested in playing a cameo role in’Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone’.”

“Are you playing Voldemort?” Hugo thought it was funny, and laughed. This choice also left Rick speechless for a while.
