Chapter 1462 1462 The heat wave strikes

The morning sunshine fell into the house without any barrier. Hugo was confused and heard Samora calling him up. He called him back and forth more than three times, but he only felt like he was muddy in his mind. Instead, he was uneasy. The heartbeats that were rising and falling suddenly woke up first. The chaotic brain gradually realized that a new day was coming.

Last night, I didn't remember what time it was before I fell asleep. Later, I chatted with Charlize for a long time, and the two discussed a lot of things. Charlize recently performed "Romeo and Juliet" and also learned a lot during the show with Leonardo DiCaprio. Charlize asked Hugo a lot of tips on acting skills. Both of them felt relieved of their nervousness, and Hugo finally fell asleep in a drowsy way.

However, feeling the chaotic heartbeat, Hugo knew that he was still nervous and irritable now. Although the huge pressure in recent times has been alleviated, he still cannot be completely relieved. But this is life. No matter how painful, struggle or hard it is, the sun still rises as usual.

He quickly got up and took a simple bath. Hugo walked to the first floor, but found that the whole house was so quiet that even the sound of the sea breeze could not be heard. Hugo looked down and found that Rick, Joseph, Samora, Carl, Alex and others were all sitting scattered in every corner of the first floor lobby, but no one spoke, and they all looked absent-minded.

Hugo knew that it was not just him, but in fact every friend around him was under tremendous pressure because their inner expectation was even stronger than Hugo. For them, the Oscar is the most important and supreme award in Hollywood at present. Hugo has already achieved enough recognition in box office. If he can be recognized by the Oscar for Best Actor, this will undoubtedly become the pinnacle of Hugo's career.

As the media said, this year is Hugo's best opportunity, and their inner expectations cannot be suppressed and rise to the peak. But as the saying goes, the higher the expectations, the heavier the disappointment; the more desire it is in the heart, the stronger the fear of missing it... This pressure makes everyone start to get distracted without exception.

Even the most experienced and calm Rick was a little distracted at this time. Although Tom Hanks won the Oscar Award for the past two years, he is also a Rick artist, Rick clearly knows that the commercial value represented by Hugo is a longer-term one. What's more, Hugo's biggest competitor is Nicholas Cage who abandoned Joseph and chose the leader of the international innovation management company. Rick not only hopes that Hugo can defeat Nicholas, but also hopes that the elite brokerage company can defeat the international innovation management company.

"Hugo, breakfast?" It was Samora who broke the silence. It was not that he was not nervous, but because he had a close admiration for Hugo. He firmly believed in Hugo, so, relatively speaking, his nervousness was the smallest.

The sound disturbed the tranquility in the room. Everyone turned their heads and saw Hugo. They were all panicked and talking nonsense, "Oh, Hugo, get up", "Hey, good morning", "Breakfast, breakfast is very good"... I hope to use these trivial words to conceal their anxiety, but the impetuous words made the room full of an indescribable tension.

Hugo let out a long sigh, "Yes, breakfast, I think I need a little breakfast." Hugo walked towards the kitchen, picked up an apple from the fruit basket, and started to chew. Hugo knew that this would be an extremely long day.

Waiting is a very interesting thing. When the mindset is positive, the waiting time will become extremely fast, sweet and cheerful. The excitement of being eager to embrace the future can make waiting beautiful; when the mindset is informed, the waiting time will become like a year, and every minute and every second seems to be scorching on the charcoal fire. Tossing and turning can not eliminate the anxiety and boredom in your heart.

Today is obviously the latter. The waiting process has made the pressure become increasingly greater, and it seems that even an encouraging look will become a burden that weighs thousands of pounds, causing emotions to gradually lose control.

"Hugo?"

The voice came from behind, Hugo frowned slightly and said impatiently, "What?" He turned around and saw Joseph handing over his phone, "Old Jack Taylor."

Hugo couldn't help but be stunned. How could Old Jack call at this time? Is it because of Adam? He quickly answered the phone, "Old Jack, it's me."

"Hey! Hugo." Old Jack's cheerful and bright voice came, "How do you feel now? You should be very nervous, right?" Old Jack's words made Hugo tuggle at the corner of his mouth, "If it were me, I would be nervous, and the scene would be absolutely unimaginable. However, your father is definitely even more nervous than you..."

"He has been absent-minded since yesterday. Grayson said yesterday that he wanted to buy two bottles of beer, but he took a box of toothbrushes for Grayson. I was really laughing... This morning, he drove to the gas station and asked little Jack to wash his car, and threw the car there directly. As a result, little Jack drove to wash him in a car, and then drove back..."

Listening to Old Jack chatting about Adam's embarrassing things, Hugo's chaotic heart slowly settled down, and he felt a sense of peace inexplicably.

"I will watch the live broadcast with Adam today, and Jasmine and Michelle will be together, and we will always be with you." Old Jack said playfully, his voice was not warm at all, but like the malicious ridicule of a cowboy in the West, which made Hugo laugh. "I called you, just to tell you, you know, in the minds of that old guy Adam and the minds of our Taylors, you will always be the best, and you don't need anyone's approval. You have to remember this."

"So, do you think I will never win the award, so you are comforting me in advance?" Hugo lowered his head and chuckled, and teased a little.

Old Jack laughed, "If you want to think this way, I can't do it. I'm just telling you, if you have time, remember to call Adam, and I see that he's already smoking when he's sitting at home."

After hanging up the phone, Hugo couldn't help but rub his forehead. Only then did he realize that he had been under too much pressure in the past two days, he almost forgot about Adam and did not contact Adam. In fact, many times, compared to the parties involved, the bystanders are more nervous, just like in sports events, the people on the field are involved in a state of selflessness, but the audience or coach off the field are even more nervous.

Hugo looked ahead, "How far is it to Doroth Chandler Hall?" They were already on the way to the red carpet, and Hugo was sitting in the VIP car. He looked forward and saw that although the road had been under traffic control, traffic jams were still beginning to be jammed early.

"There are two more streets, that is, at least a quarter of an hour." Joseph said skillfully.

Hugo lowered his head and called Adam again, but the two of them had no communication. After all, Hugo's condition was not as good as a comfort Adam. He said a few words stiffly and awkwardly, and the phone hung up. However, after making the call, Hugo's irritability gradually settled down. Although he was still nervous and his shoulders were still tight, at least Hugo could control it.

As the car moved slowly forward, the surging crowds in sight showed the whole picture bit by bit. Outside the street, the crowded sea of ​​people had occupied both sides of the road. The gradually rising cheers gradually increased the atmosphere on the scene, and the car's progress seemed to be moving from winter to spring.

From afar, Hugo could already see the red carpet in his sight. The flashes of the sky turned into a dark blue sky into red. The gorgeous spots and starry lights shone together. The surging waves of people were rising and falling in their sight. The faces that began to twist because of their overly excited gradually became clear. The lineup of journalists made the red carpet look like the Road to Moses that would be swallowed at any time.

The 68th Oscar is approaching, and the beating of the heart in the chest begins to become stronger and stronger again. The surging adrenaline makes the muscles tense up, and the palms of the palms can even feel wet sweat. Hugo knows that this unprecedented tension comes from his mental imbalance, even more nervous than when he first came to the Oscar, but he has no way to control it. Hugo can only take a deep breath, then take a deep breath, and do his best to calm himself down.

Finally, the car slowly approached the entrance of the red carpet. Joseph and Samora, who were sitting opposite him, suddenly focused on Hugo. Rick, who had the most experience, patted Hugo's back of his hand, "Remember to smile, this is the reason for them to come here." Rick signaled the surging sea of ​​people outside the window with his eyes.

Hearing this joke, Hugo couldn't help but smile.

Then, he stopped completely, and the door of the car was opened by the receptionist standing on both sides of the red carpet. The dazzling lights vented in an instant. Hugo took a deep breath again, raised his foot and walked out of the VIP car. His feet felt the softness on the red carpet, and tried to lower his center of gravity and slowly landed from the floating air.

"Huh" and the crazy heat wave came to my face. The screams that broke through the sky, shouts and cheers were mixed with the tide-like flashlights. The heat wave that seemed to be falling from the Milky Way in the sky surged, setting off a huge wave of air, almost making Hugo unstable.

Hugo straightened his waist and gently stepped on the red carpet with his feet. In a trance, he could feel the sense of solidity coming from the ground, which calmed himself down. He had passed countless storms, let alone just Oscar night? Then, Hugo's lips outlined a calm smile and took a step: Oscar, kick off!
