Chapter 133 133 Performance Gains

Although the pedestrian did not call out Hugo's name, he at least recognized him and knew that this was the handsome high school student in "Smelling the Scent of the Scent", which was like "the suicide boy in the 'Death Poetry Club'", replacing the worst male lead of the Golden Raspberry Award and becoming Hugo's latest synonym. This is a great progress.

The crowd stepped forward to shake hands with Hugo and hugged him. After a long time of fun, it gradually dispersed. Hugo did not expect that the situation would turn out like this in the end. Faced with Charlize's slightly joking expression, Hugo could only smile helplessly: he was still not very adaptable to the fact that he had become a well-known actor.

"I didn't expect that you were so good at singing." Charlize had a playful smile on her face. She had known Hugo for more than half a year, but she never knew that Hugo was such an excellent singer. She originally thought that Hugo was just a joke to sing live, but she didn't expect that it brought such a huge surprise, which even made her cry. "Did you create this song just now?"

Hugo's lips outlined a warm curve, "Yes. Music is my hobby, is it my hidden talent?" The last word "talent" Hugo deliberately raised the ending sound, as if seeking Charlize's approval, and successfully rolled his eyes.

"It's not difficult to praise me, you can just say it." Charlize mercilessly exposes Hugo's trick, which makes Hugo laugh.

"Hey, man." A rough voice rang politely and cautiously, Hugo and Charlize couldn't help but look over, and then saw a handsome guy of six feet three inches (1.9 meters) with his slender legs, which were particularly eye-catching under the sunset. Even Hugo's six feet tall had to raise his eyes slightly to see the face clearly. His well-proportioned figure was carrying a guitar, and the simple combination of ripped jeans and black T-shirt made him look unruly and chic, with long golden hair and blue-green eyes that reflected a romantic light.

"I am Neil Anderson, a street performer." Neil took the initiative to introduce himself, turned around and pointed to the two hundred yards behind him, indicating that it was his performance venue. "I just heard your singing, and I must express my respect to you. It's really great."

Neil spoke cleanly and with a generous expression. Looking at the worn guitar in Hugo's hand, he showed excitement in his heart, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was filled with emotion. Although the other party was just a stranger, Hugo could easily feel the true feelings from Neil's heart. "Oh, thank you so much. I was worried that no one would appreciate my performance. Yours is definitely too important to me."

Hugo was not polite, but stating the facts. His words were naturally sincere, which made Neil laugh. "Oh, by the way, I am Hugo Lancaster, the street performer who made a temporary guest appearance today."

"Yes, I heard just now. They said you are an actor." Neil held Hugo's right hand that he actively stretched out, and did not let go directly. Instead, he held Hugo's right hand and continued, "I think you are a very outstanding singer. You should really spend more time in music creation, and countless people will be crazy for you." After that, he tried to express his affirmation with his right hand, "I am serious." Then he loosened his hand.

"Maybe this is the best news I heard today." Hugo's smile bloomed brightly. "Looking at your serious expression, I would think you are a music agent at a certain agency. Of course, if that's the case, it would be even better."

"Oh, no, I'm just a music lover." Neil was also amused by Hugo. He looked at the guitar in Hugo's hand. "Your guitar skills are really excellent. Did you write this song yourself just now? I must say, jazz is integrated into the pop? This is really a crazy and excellent idea." People who are also playing guitars naturally have many common languages ​​when chatting.

"There are also rhythm and blues." Hugo added, giving Neil a sudden realization expression, "Actually, I'm just trying it for the first time today. I usually like rock more."

"Guns and Roses or Nirvana?" This is Neal's first thought, these two bands are the best representative bands of American local rock since 1988.

Hugo shook his head and said a series of band names, "Happy Monday (happy.touching ndays), stone rose (the.stone.ro color), Smith band (the.s fans)." Accompanied Hugo's words, the expression on Neil's face shone brightly.

The bands Hugo mentioned are representative British rock bands that have risen rapidly after the 1980s. After experiencing the glory of a group of rock bands such as Queen, Sex, Gun (s.e.x.pistols), and the Beatles, British rock entered the 1980s with a slight decline. Instead, American rock, led by guns, roses, and Nirvana, became the mainstream of the world, but no one would ignore the powerful energy of British rock.

Neil originally thought that Hugo was a "native" American who should have a deeper emotion for American rock, but unexpectedly, Hugo has a similar taste and an inextricable love for British rock. This is indeed a huge surprise.

"I can see why I resonate so much with your music." Neil's simple words expressed the joy that he and the gentleman of Hugo saw, which made Hugo laugh. "Although I really want to continue to communicate with you about guitar and music, I am really sorry. I have made an appointment with a friend tonight, so I have to leave for the time being." The regret and regret on Neil's face were clearly presented in those beautiful eyes.

Hugo also sighed lightly. Although he had only said a few words to Neil, the feeling of intimacy that hit it off at first sight made Hugo feel very regretful. It was not that easy to meet a friend who had a common hobby in music. Hugo's first reaction was to take out his mobile phone to record the other party's contact information, but then Hugo thought that it was 1992, an era when the Internet was not on the rise and mobile phones were as heavy as bricks. It was so bad.

"There will always be a chance." Hugo quickly felt relieved and said with a smile, "If we really like the same music." Birds of a feather flock together. Although this sentence is often a derogatory term, it is sometimes true. As long as you have the same preferences, there will always be a chance to meet again in the world of music.

"I'll wait." Neil smiled loudly, then waved to Charlize and Hugo, and left quickly. From beginning to end, Neil had just greeted Charlize twice, focusing entirely on Hugo or on the guitar in Hugo's hand.

Hugo looked at Charlize, smiled and joked, "I don't think this outfit today will help." The subtext means that the beggar's outfit blocked Charlize's face, so no one will notice her, "or rather, your outfit today is very successful." Because Charlize hopes to achieve this effect today.

Charlize ignored Hugo, obviously not caring about Hugo's words at all, so he was so embarrassed that he could only touch his nose awkwardly, "How was my performance just now?" This is the topic Charlize is concerned about.

Hugo stopped joking and put the guitar in the box, and the banknotes inside made rustling sounds, "I think the look is still not good enough. You have turned your emotions a few times just now but it is too deliberate."

In fact, the script of the performance just now was temporarily conceived by Hugo. It can be said that there are many loopholes, but to prevent the masses from paying attention to these loopholes, you must rely on the performance of two people to concentrate the audience's attention. When someone starts to get distracted, you will realize that this is a scam or a drama.

So Hugo and Charlize both sat down and began to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the performance just now, "What about me? Was I too exaggerated just now?" Hugo didn't know how he thought about his emotions just now. Although judging from the audience's reaction, Hugo and Charlize were successful, the performance was always like this. You must keep studying and thinking to make progress. Complacent and pride are of no help.

So, a magical scene appeared at the entrance of the street. A handsome young man and a sloppy homeless man sat face to face and had an in-depth discussion. It was indeed a scene in the street.

After the discussion, Hugo took the initiative to propose, "Next, let's change the role. You will play the weak. I will be that strong villain and experience a different role." Charlize did not speak, but just looked at Hugo seriously, "I kicked you when I passed by. You wanted me to call an ambulance, but I not only didn't want to call, but also spoke ill of you. In this way, after attracting the attention of pedestrians, you seek the help of the patrol officer, want to suppress me, and then I will fight against everyone in a blatant manner."

"Where is the guitar?" Charlize spoke.

Hugo was silent for a moment, "Under the pressure of the patrol officer, I had to compromise and say that I would perform a song to see how much money I could raise, and all this money would be funded to you." This turning point seemed a bit stiff, and the loopholes were also obvious, but overall it was feasible.

Charlize thought about it, "Actually, what I want to have a strong turn is that I was originally weak and you are strong; after the masses gather, I become strong and rely on the support of the masses to blackmail you, you become weak." This is the so-called reversal drama.
