Superstar

Facing Hugo’s doubts, Rick, Joseph, and Carl sitting on the sofa looked at each other and seemed to be asking, “You said it’s me.” Obviously, this incident almost mobilized the resources of the entire Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company. Get up, even Carl is involved.

Finally, Joseph took the initiative and said, "Do you remember that at the party, you asked me about it?"

Hugo looked at a blank face, calmed down and thought about it. There are people coming and going on the night of Oscars. Except for Cameron as a female companion, Hugo and other people rarely meet, even Came. Long himself often gathers and talks with other ladies, so Hugo spends most of his time in communication, and there are few quiet moments.

"Ah, when I was chatting with Thomas?" Hugo remembered. When he was chatting with Burberry's American head Thomas Wieland, Joseph came over, because Thomas was absent from Hugo this year. Bailey expressed regret at the London Fashion Week catwalk. Thomas also teased a few words with Joseph, hoping that Hugo would appear in Burberry's show during the spring and summer fashion week in October.

Joseph nodded in affirmation. Hugo thought about it seriously, but still found nothing, "What did I ask you for?" There were too many people he had talked to that night, and most of them were unnutritious polite scenes. He really couldn't remember. It's too clear.

Joseph was not surprised by this. He then explained, "You ask me why John Walt brought his daughter to the Oscars."

"Yes! Yes!" Hugo slapped his palms twice, then remembered. At that time, he was just talking about it casually, because he saw Qiang Walt taking Angelina Jolie to talk to others at least three times a night, but when he saw it later, Angelina was no longer strong by his side. , Two people are far away, as if there is an enmity.

"Why are you gossiping all of a sudden? You didn't seem to have any interest in these things before." Carl who was sitting next to him laughed and teased.

Hugo can only answer "on a whim." He can't say that he saw Angelina almost bumping into Gwyneth. Brad hurriedly guarded the flowers. As a result, the rebellious Angelina was ridiculed. The world is so wonderful, that's why he didn't hold back, and asked Joseph about it.

"Maybe it's luck." Joseph didn't think too much, and took the conversation. "You are rarely interested in a gossip, so I went to inquire about it. I found out that Walt originally brought his daughter to the party. Introduce some contacts to my daughter to pave the way for her daughter’s future. But the problem is that the two father and daughter are not travelling together at all, which is really weird. On the contrary, I have seen Walter and Cruise standing together twice. , I vaguely felt something was wrong, so I went to Rick."

It is true that Joseph's overall view is not as clear as Rick's. So Joseph didn't ask for a big deal, so he told Rick the first time.

The next thing became clear. Rick just asked Qiang's previous conversations in detail, and constructed one-third of the entire blueprint. Although only one-third, it was enough for them.

In fact, before the Oscars night, Tom Cruise’s actions, Rick, are all in his eyes, if not all, at least more than 60%. Correspondingly, Rick has been operating behind the scenes. , This time is indeed the entire Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company is working hard, from Disney to Warner Bros., from New Line Pictures to Paramount, and even the less relevant 20th Century Fox, Universal Pictures, and Columbia Pictures. To the figure of Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company.

Rick's desired outcome is that Hugo will take down both "Mission Impossible" and "Seven Deadly Sins", "Mission Impossible" is paid 15 million US dollars, and "Seven Deadly Sins" will be paid for the supporting role in a regular manner. However, "The Seven Deadly Sins" is a supporting role, so there are certainly not many scenes, so we let Hugo shoot ahead of time and join the "Mission Impossible" crew after it's finished.

But Rick did not expect that Tom was actually determined to win this time. Not only did he use the powerful resources of the innovative artist agency-promised to develop and collaborate with Paramount on multiple works, but he also used all his personal relationships. Both Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company and Hugo are slightly inferior, and it is not too surprising that they eventually lost to Tom.

The sudden attack on Oscar night was not so much a plan in advance, but rather Rick made a decisive decision, the strong man broke his wrist, chose to abandon "Mission Impossible" and attacked the "Seven Deadly Sins".

Joseph first took advantage of Paramount’s not wanting to have **** with Hugo and Tom Hanks, and persuaded Paramount to set up the stage together—to be honest, this was a free publicity opportunity, and all Paramount needed was It was only a few days later to postpone the announcement of the cooperation with Tom Cruise. With a little effort, Paramount had no reason to refuse.

At the same time, Rick, Ali and Carl and others have persuaded Disney, Warner Bros., and New Line Pictures in a powerful way. Through the exchange of interests, not only snatched the "seven deadly sins", but also received 10 million dollars for Hugo, overwhelming the leading actor Brad Pitt, and made the creative artist agency company disgraced once; All controversies were settled, and all attention was transferred to the two works. At that time, the works will still be used to win. The most important thing is that Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company is making its debut.

This really makes people have to admire Rick’s crisis handling ability. He did his best in difficult situations. Although he missed the "Mission Impossible", the "Seven Deadly Sins" were still in his hands, and Alexander Lowe Lin also successfully joined the crew of "Breathtaking Island".

If the creative artist agency knew that the root cause of all this was just a curiosity of Hugo, which led to Rick and the others immediately noticed something was wrong and had the opportunity to start layout. So I don't know what their expressions will be, it is probably hard to smile.

"Hugo, sorry, I still didn't take'Mission Impossible' in the end." Rick looked at Hugo solemnly and apologized.

Missing "Mission Impossible" is a huge regret for Rick, and it can even be said to be a failure. Not only because this work was originally one of Rick’s best choices, but also because Hugo also nodded in agreement. If Hugo can play "Mission Impossible", there are many things that Endeavour's elite brokerage company can operate in the future. , The cooperative relationship between him and Hugo will be closer.

Therefore, Rick believes that this is a negligence of his job. After seeing the frequent actions behind Tom Cruise, he still has not enough chips in his hand to make a final decision.

Hugo looked at Rick, who was very serious, but shook his head with a smile, "This is Hollywood, isn't it? To be precise, this is society. Not everyone can do what they want."

This is the first time since Hugo entered Hollywood that he clearly felt the fact that strength is not the only criterion for determining victory. Although he has always known that the breadth and thickness of contacts, the utilization and cooperation of the media, the depth of personal relationships, etc., all have the ability to influence the direction of the final result, but this is his first experience.

"Mission: Impossible" chose Tom Cruise, not because of strength, nor simply because of the salary, nor because of the actor's adaptability to the role. Just because Tom uses more surrounding resources than Hugo.

No wonder people are so concerned about the Hollywood power list! Judging from the current situation, Hugo's momentum is in full swing, but his position in the Hollywood power list is still no better than Tom.

In fact, this kind of failure is something Hugo doesn’t like, because it is not the result of a head-on confrontation with the foundation of strength, but Hugo also clearly knows that in modern society, many times they have already lost without even using their own strength. , If you want to show your strength, you must get a certain platform. This is social reality, not just Hollywood.

It can be said that Tom’s victory was upright, without conspiracy, no secret stumbling, no slander, and everything relied on the combination of his hard power and soft power to achieve the final victory. As if he formally declared war in front of Hugo.

Similarly, Hugo's victory over Kevin Spacey to win the "seven deadly sins" is really the result of strength? Of course, strength is one of the most important links. The role of Anonymous is not something anyone can do, but it is not strength that determines the outcome.

"Rick, although we missed the'Mission Impossible', we won the'Seven Deadly Sins' and also won the'Break to Death Island' for Alex, and there are several other works. Right? This is all worth celebrating." Hugo not only did not intend to blame Rick, on the contrary, it was the first time he clearly saw the strength of the agent in this incident, whether it was an endeavour elite agency, an innovative artist No matter the brokerage company, they are more than just an intermediary that takes over work. "The only pity is that the ladies don't seem to find a new job."

Charlize had almost no chance to audition for the "Seven Deadly Sins", and Gwyneth won; Cameron also failed to find a suitable script~www.readwn.com~ This is indeed a pity.

"It's not over yet." Rick shook his head with a chuckle. Although they won the work, it was just the beginning.

Especially in the process of putting pressure on Paramount this time, Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company and the current three top brokerage companies have fought against each other. Rick clearly knows that they will be vigilant, especially the international innovation management company. It will definitely increase the pressure on Endeavour's elite brokerage companies.

This time is an opportunity for the Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company to show themselves. They succeeded in making their debut; and the fierce competition that followed is the highlight. Whether it is a hero or a bear, it depends on the next duel.

But Rick didn’t intend to talk to Hugo too much, but changed the subject, “The next step is to see your performance. This time the cast is so strong, are you under pressure?” Although Rick didn’t say it clearly, he actually changed the subject. It's also talking about the Hugo and Brad duel, and of course the Hugo and Morgan duel. It's just that Rick is different from Martin Baum. He has absolute confidence. He has the confidence to believe in Hugo unswervingly.

Hugo didn't speak big words, shrugged, "Reading the script starts today." Everything must start from scratch, one step at a time.
