Superstar

Leonardo came to visit the class, and David Fincher came over and talked very face-to-face. Hugo learned that when David got the script, he actually considered using Leonardo as the leading actor. Yes, but before he finished reading the script, Leonardo was out, Denzel Washington became the first choice of New Line Film Company at that time.

This is what makes Hugo and Leonardo very novel. People always say that Hollywood is a big complex circle. There are no 10,000 or 8,000 actors, but in fact, they have tossed and turned around and found familiar faces that were familiar.

Later Andrew and Morgan also surrounded them and joined their conversation. Brad and Gwyneth, who had always been in the corner, seemed a little out of tune.

Hugo watched Leonardo and they had a good chat, but he walked aside, asked for a cell phone from Joseph, and directly dialed Rick's number. It was not Rick who answered the call, but his assistant Jim Snow.

Jim is also a veteran of the Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company. He was Rick's assistant when he entered the industry, and then he followed Rick to leave the International Innovation Management Company and joined the ranks of entrepreneurship. Therefore, Jim and Hugo are also relatively familiar. He has a deep understanding of the importance of Hugo. At the same time, they are friends with each other and speak relatively easily.

"What's the matter? Did the reporter go to the crew to harass you again today?" Jim realized that it was Hugo and immediately teased him casually.

Although the crew of the "Seven Deadly Sins" is no longer the focus of attention recently, the big-name turmoil about Hugo has not been completely calmed down—because Hugo is still rejecting media interviews, and now the media has naturally noticed something is wrong, but Hugo is the case. At home and the crew at two points on the line, and they are tightly covered when they go out, the space left for the paparazzi is too small. In desperation, the media can only flock to the crew every other way to try to give the new line film company. Put pressure to achieve the goal.

Hugo chuckled, "Even if the reporters really come, and you can't drive them away, it's better to let them stay outside. Anyway, the weather in Los Angeles has started to get hot recently."

Hugo's dark-bellied thought made Jim laugh, but Jim also knew that the greeting could not be too long. Hugo certainly didn't call to chat, "Rick is busy now, do you have anything urgent to call him?"

"It's not an urgent matter," Hugo shook his head. He was actually worried that he was forgetful. Recently, because of the "seven deadly sins", the whole person seemed a little lax. When I had dinner with Cameron last night, he almost made a whole plate of pasta. It’s all overturned, and about the agent, it’s not appropriate for Joseph the manager to say hello. Hugo still needs to greet him personally, so he called in the first time, "It’s just that I have a friend. , He wants to come to our company, I asked Rick what plan he has."

"Friends?" Jim became curious. The friends Hugo knows at this level are not small people. "Are ordinary people wanting to enter the industry, or celebrities want to change agents?" Whether it's the former or the latter, Hugo can make a call in person , This is not an easy task.

"Leonardo DiCaprio." Hugo simply said without selling it off.

Jim laughed immediately, unexpectedly and reasonably.

The accident is because Leonardo is currently a rising star. Although Leonardo has not yet become a big hit, most of the films that have been shot are also very niche. The only one that has won a big box office is The friendly cameo "speed of life and death", but in fact, many people in the circle are very optimistic about Leonardo's future, and the market has been bullish. Many people think that he has the strength and conditions to become Tom Cruise and Brahman. An actor at the level of Germany and Hugo.

Therefore, actors like Leonardo have always been sought-after figures among agents, and small investments have brought big returns, and no one wants to miss it. I did not expect that Leonardo would abandon the support of innovative artist brokerage companies or international innovation management companies, and choose Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company, which can only barely be called a small temple of medium-sized brokerage companies at present.

But as long as you think of the friendship between Leonardo and Hugo, everything is not so unexpected.

"Oh, I heard about that." Jim reacted right away. As an insider, he naturally knows a lot about the dynamics of the agent. He is talking about Leonardo's firing of the agent. "That guy looked very dissatisfied, saying that Leonardo is just self-destructing like this, maybe he will be the next Macaulay Culkin."

"Is this a sought-after?" Hugo's words made Jim haha ​​laughing. For one thing, Leonardo has not reached the height of Macaulay's original "Home Alone", and secondly, Macaulay has not completely passed away. , So this analogy is really not appropriate.

"I'll tell Rick later, let him contact Leonardo directly, is that okay? Or should I contact you?" Jim made a note on the notepad in front of him, regarding the first time he has entered the orbit. For Endeavour's elite brokerage company, Leonardo's joining can definitely become an important weight.

"Contact him directly, do you have Leo's contact information?" Hugo looked back at Leonardo, who was talking freely with Andrew, and said.

"Of course, you forgot what we did." Jim joked with a chuckle, which made Hugo laugh. The agent is so powerful that it is not difficult to find out the contact information of an actor. The easiest way is to contact the Screen Actors Guild. "Oh, by the way, do you know who Rick is seeing now?"

Hugo raised his eyebrows lightly. In fact, people in the circle are more or less gossip, especially the assistants of the agent and the assistants of the makeup artist. Today's Jim is like this. In the past, Ron Meyer's assistant Gary- The same is true for Scott. "Why, Grant's subjects plan to enter the entertainment industry?"

Hugo was talking about one of the hottest topics in the circle recently. Hugh Grant, who won the title of British Lover for "four weddings and a funeral", was arrested by the Los Angeles police two days ago for his tricks. The prostitute was caught on the spot and caused an uproar. Hugh Grant confessed to this, but his public image has been greatly affected-he eats as a gentleman and gentle male protagonist in romantic movies.

The "objects" that Hugo mentioned was about Hugh's tricks. Prostitute object.

Jim chuckled, "No, they don't need our help." Jim also joked together, "The person who came today is related to you..." Jim said meaningfully, wanting to hang Hugo. He’s appetite, only when he talks about gossip, Hugo doesn’t buy it and speaks uncooperatively. Jim doesn’t give up and continues to seduce him, "Woman, Europe, thirty years old..."

Hugo didn't have any names in his mind. He had to interrupt Jim with a smile, "Jim, my memory of names is almost zero, so even if I have an idea, I can't answer it." Jim still doesn't. Knowing the extent of Hugo's blindness, his intention to create gossip suspense today is doomed to fail.

"It's boring..." Jim complained long, speaking of gossip, and his interest in talking about gossip has decreased a lot, but he regained his spirits and said with a loud voice, "It's Joanna Rowling, from Edinburgh. of."

Hugo hadn't had much hope, but when he heard Jim's words, his eyes opened suddenly. He really didn't expect j. k. Rowling finally contacted Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company. At this time, it has been half a year since Hugo met Joanna in Edinburgh, and Joanna has never heard from him. Hugo thought he just missed her.

When Hugo accidentally thought of this before, he was very frustrated, frustrated for not being able to be more persuasive, and frustrated for not having a more relaxed and comfortable creative environment for Joanna. But the unexpected surprise came so suddenly.

"Hey, she showed up!" Hugo blurted out in surprise.

Jim now had the sense of accomplishment of gossip, and he triumphantly confirmed, "Yes, she called the office the day before yesterday and expressed that she wanted to ask for some help. Rick booked her a ticket and asked her to fly over. For an interview in Los Angeles, she arrived at the hotel last night and came over to the company today."

In fact, Jim doesn’t know much about it. He just knows that Joanna was introduced by Hugo, and the reason why Rick was willing to spend a lot of money in interviews with Joanna was because of Hugo's face-to know the current situation of the Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company. In fact, they don't have so much thought and energy invested in a down-and-out writer in Edinburgh.

So, at this moment, Jim is also trying to test Hugo's meaning~www.readwn.com~Hugo, is she really... very talented? How did you find her? "

The smile at the corner of Hugo's mouth could not help but outlines, "She is indeed very talented and full of incredible ideas. Believe me, she is a very good author. All she lacks is just a little opportunity."

"Then do you want to come over and see her?" Jim asked tentatively, and he assumed that there was a man and woman between Hugo and Joanna. rhyme. It depends on Hugo's answer.

Hugo shrugged, "Look at the opportunity, I have been so busy on the crew these two days, I don't know what Rick's arrangements are, I will go back and let Joe ask." Hugo didn't think much, very calm. And eager to try, "I really hope that Rick's conversation with her goes well."

Hugo really wants to help Joanna complete the "Harry Potter" series. This set of novels has brought a lot of fun to Hugo's life in the rough and wandering life. Although he has some criticisms about the adaptation of the movie, he is not the original. The love of novels has never changed.

While Hugo and Jim were talking here, Joanna was also uneasy sitting in front of Rick. She looked at Rick with a little timidity and hesitation. She moved her body stiffly, but did not dare to move too much. , Lest his improper behavior will ruin the immediate opportunity.
