Superstar

Chapter 1042: Involuntary

\"&   Daos heard the words that Hugo was finally willing to accept the interview, his heart loosened, and the smile between his brows permeated. It was not wasted that he crafted the heroic and magnificent nomination. As long as Hugo is willing Talking to him, he has absolute confidence to dig out enough news value in Hugo.

Daus thought of this, and his mood suddenly relaxed a lot. He started to walk into the house, but was blocked by Hugo's hand, which made Dawes raise his head in confusion, and then he looked. When I arrived at Hugo's face with a gentle smile, "Today is just our first meeting. You are not dreaming about me inviting you to have coffee at home?"

Dawes expression suddenly stiffened. Before he could respond, he listened to Hugo saying, "Please wait a while. I will change my clothes and come out immediately." After that, Hugo didn't hesitate. Close the door.

Dawes stood there and laughed blankly: He spent so much time and energy that he didn't even step into Hugo's house. This is really...

It only took a few minutes for Hugo to go in. He quickly changed into an iron gray sweater with jeans and a military green coat in his hand. Then he motioned to Dawes to follow his steps and set off together.

Dawes glanced at the simple and unadorned storefront in front of him. It was written "Intellectual Coffee" in red and white lettering. It was located in a retro and bustling building. It was not at all noticeable. He had passed by this coffee shop many times. But I have to go in and sit down.

But after following in the footsteps of Hugo and entering the coffee shop, Dawes found that the clerk and Hugo were very familiar with each other. They greeted and joked. The clerk even waved the "Los Angeles Times" for the past two days. The ridicule Hugo became the front page again, and Hugo smiled heartily, not angry at all.

Dawes realized that although he has been following Hugo closely for nearly a year-even if not personally following Hugo, his knowledge of Hugo is still only a trivial matter. Suddenly, Dawes' mind flashed through the "Los Angeles Times" evaluation of Hugo: "".

"This is the coffee house you often come to?" Dawes sat down in the chair, looked at Hugo in front of him, and asked casually.

Hugo chuckled, "Don't disturb my peace here." If Hugo notices a paparazzi following, he will rarely come here, because this coffee shop was originally a gathering place for real coffee lovers. , He doesn't want to destroy the tranquility here because of himself. In addition to Nicholas McLennan, Dawes is the second reporter to follow him here. In addition, Hugo will choose Al Bar more often.

Of course, Hugo will bring Daus here, naturally not because Daus persuaded him, but because he had other plans.

"You know, in this world, apart from Hollywood stars, there are many important things. Let's not discuss heavy topics such as wars and famines. At least, coffee is one of them. For many people. Said, the importance of coffee far exceeds Hollywood, more than artists. So, don't try to anger this group of people, if you want to put on airs here, I am afraid you will be overwhelmed with shame and suffocated to death." Hugo said with a chuckle. There was a bit of joy and ridicule in his tone, and he could hear that he was not in a bad mood.

Dawes thought about the overwhelming news in the newspapers and magazines over the past two days, and compared it with Hugo, who was calm and relaxed. He had an illusion in a trance, as if he and Hugo were in two different time and space. In other words, it is not Hugo’s illusion that the protagonist of the news is reported by newspapers and magazines.

"I'm not a coffee lover, but I'm a caffeine poisoner. You know, my job needs caffeine perk." Dawes also tried to relax himself, casually said.

Hugo raised his eyebrows lightly. "Maybe there is nicotine." Dawes chuckled lightly. "At least it's not snow powder." This was suggesting poison. Pin, made Dawes laugh again.

Objectively speaking, in the Hollywood environment, there is no exposure to drugs. The people of the products are almost endangered cherished animals, the difference is that some people just choose big ones. Hemp-this poison lies on the edge of illegality and legality. Some people are just for temporary excitement-after experiencing it, they are no longer interested, and some people are falling into the abyss. In the period after the "" failure in 1991, I also once fell into obsession, not only drinking, but also inhaling. He has been arrested to the police station several times.

Naturally, the paparazzi or journalists represented by Dawes are no exception, because they are also part of this circle.

"So, tell me, where is my value?" Hugo's last sentence was still a joke, and the next sentence suddenly changed the subject, bringing the focus of the conversation to the topic, which made Dawes smile. Stiff.

Dawes shrugged and curled his lips, trying to get his brain to work quickly in this way, "You know, you are currently the most valuable artist in Hollywood..."

"Please, if you want to talk politely to me, I don't think you will come here today, let alone sell your exclusive photos." Since you will appear in front of me, you must have a plan, so , Why not spread the words out?" Hugo pulled off all the politeness almost in one sentence, and there was hardly any buffer for Dawes.

Daus did not speak immediately this time, but looked at Hugo with interest, and Hugo was not timid, and met Daus's eyes calmly.

As a senior paparazzi, Dawes has seen all kinds of entertainers in the circle, of course there are Hugos, Hugo is more like a combination of Marlon Brando and Tom Cruise, Hugo Always be able to grasp the rhythm of the conversation in his own hands, and faintly take the initiative. More importantly, the wisdom in Hugo's eyes always makes reporters feel like they are completely naked when facing him. This feeling is terrible.

"You know it's impossible. If you spread the words out, it's nothing more than the word'interest', and we don't need to talk anymore, right?" Dawes, he said Hugo in one sentence Top it back. Dawes can drive Johnny Depp crazy, which naturally shows that he is a bold and careful guy, even more difficult than Anthony Bond Stewart.

"That's why I asked you what my value is." Hugo refuted it without worrying at all. After this sentence came out, it made the conversation between Hugo and Dawes fall into a deadlock, and both of them were a little silent for a while.

The relationship between the artist and the paparazzi is actually very delicate. On the one hand, the paparazzi is forcing the artist, unearthing the artist’s unknown secrets, and even trying to drive the artist crazy. Their goal is to reveal the hidden inside story of the artist. ; But on the other hand, the paparazzi is begging for the artist, because the artist is the paparazzi’s job, just like countless paparazzi crying after their death. They are not the sad princess's death, but the sadness of their job is missing.

This relationship is more wonderful and weird than the relationship between an artist and the ordinary, and of course it is more exciting and sharp.

Now, Hugo is trying to constrain Daus, and Daus is unwilling to be constrained; in turn, Daus wants to cooperate with Hugo, but Hugo is forcing Daus to show his cards. Both sides are trying to gain the upper hand, and no one is willing to give in.

"You know what your value is." Dawes said, but he still didn't let go of his posture. "You know you can't avoid the entanglement of paparazzi, even if you quit the entertainment circle, it's impossible in a short time. "Daws is threatening Hugo, but that's the truth.

Even the semi-retired Marlon Brando and Catherine Hepburn, who is active in stage plays, still can’t get rid of reporters—including the entanglement of paparazzi. This is the sorrow of public figures. Even their funerals still have to be made. Newsworthy commodity.

"So, why don't you take a step back and give some cooperation opportunities appropriately? I think it is good for both of us and good for others." Although Daws didn't say it clearly, the words are actually very clear. .

Hugo is now the most newsworthy person. Whether he wants it or not, all reporters and paparazzi will target him and continue to harass him. If Hugo refuses to cooperate, then the people around Hugo will suffer next. , Just like this time Mr. Bond angered Adam. The so-called involuntary self is such a truth. No matter how powerful Hugo alone is, it is difficult to control the actions of the entire news network.

So ~www.readwn.com~ Dawes is asking Hugo for some convenience, at least not to be too repulsive. Then, the paparazzi can dig enough news on Hugo, and they won't worry about the people around Hugo. Or to be more precise, Dawes is asking Hugo for his convenience.

How can Hugo just make his debut? Daws can only represent himself, not all paparazzi. His promise is of no use at all, and Daws’s proposal is not good for Hugo at all, even if it is equal to it. Threatening Hugo's initiative to cooperate.

However, Dawes' words are also reasonable. If Hugo is willing to cooperate, Dawes can break the news enough, then the focus of the news is indeed easier to focus on Hugo, to avoid harm to the people around Hugo.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is still a matter of interest. Dawes surrendered the benefits of this exclusive report, trying to obtain more long-term benefits, and let Hugo sell his own interests to protect the interests of others around him.

Dawes' goal is not unexpected, it is exactly what Hugo expected, but should he compromise? Is this the price of social cruelty and growth? In order to protect the people around you, you must sacrifice yourself. In other words, this is the price that Hollywood, the Vanity Fair, must pay after its success. .
