Chapter 1517 1517 Transfer Exchange

Leonardo was easily convinced, which far exceeded Hugo's expectations. After the phone was hung up, Hugo was stunned for a while.

The role of Leonardo in "Titanic" can be said to be a happy result and a result of following the historical trajectory. However, Hugo couldn't help but think of Leonardo's decline after the release of "Titanic".

From 1998 to 2001, Leonardo's real work was only one "the.man.in.the.iron.mask". As for the 2000 "the.beach" was directed by Danny Ball, it was subject to strong protests from environmentalists due to its sensitive subject matter and was only released on a small scale and was soon offline.

In other words, after a sensational "Titanic", Leonardo has almost experienced a four-year gap period. What was Leonardo doing during these four years? Immersed in alcohol and became the king of nightclubs in New York and Los Angeles, frequently changing model girlfriends, living a life of drunkenness, being indulgent, and having fun, and being in a daze, being spent in a daze.

In four years, Leonardo's temperament and personality changed not only, but also made him become unbelieving friends. Because the fame that came with "Titanic" brought countless flesh and blood around him, everyone was like a vampire trying to get the halo of fame and fortune from him; more importantly, Leonardo's performance aura was exhausted, everyone was paying attention to his private life, and that handsome face became the only label that people confine him. No one cared about his performance, everyone just screamed for his appearance, that's all.

From 1993 to 1997, from 1998 to 2001, from 2002 to 2014, these were three important stages of Leonardo's acting career, and what played a decisive role was precisely the "Titanic" in 1997. Leonardo was unable to break the shackles in his twenty years of pursuit of Oscars. There were the prejudice of the judges of the college, the demons of Leonardo, and the bad luck of by chance...

Leonardo did not play in "Titanic", so what would happen? What would happen without "Titanic"? No one can know this answer, including Hugo.

Now, Hugo once again pulled Leonardo to the crew of the "Titanic". Does that mean that the historical trajectory will develop the same way? Does this mean that Hugo dragged Leonardo into the quagmire of fame and fortune with his own hands? Does this also mean that Hugo has become a bottleneck in Leonardo's acting skills?

Thinking of Leonardo's trust, Hugo suddenly felt the pressure on his shoulders getting heavy. Is his decision really correct?

Such thoughts flashed through Hugo's mind, making his shoulders a little heavy. He did not want to let Leonardo down. But Hugo also knew that predicting the future is a stupid thing. Whether it is blindly believing in the future and restless, or not being able to determine the unknown factors in the future and keeping in the future, this is not desirable. Because he is a variable in the long river of history. No matter what the original future is, he has become one of them now. He can only live every present with a down-to-earth and be able to change every future. Fear and retreat because he is worried about the future repeating the same mistakes. This is the choice of the loser.

Perhaps, Hugo can rely on his own strength to make the trajectory of history slightly change again. This is a spirit of glory to death and a spirit of "sail"!

After hanging up Leonardo's phone, Hugo breathed a sigh of relief, then dialed Rick's cell phone and told Rick his thoughts. On the other end of the phone, Rick was completely silent. He had expected Hugo to reject the "Titanic", but he did not expect that such a situation would be.

"What's going on now?" After a while of silence, Rick's first sentence was not about the "Titanic".

Hugo knew what Rick meant. Although Hugo hadn't said anything in the past month, his friends around him had more or less felt the changes in Hugo. As Hugo's agent, Rick was very worried about Hugo's condition. He was not only worried about his career planning, but also worried that the "death prisoner walk" would happen again.

Hugo chuckled, "I'm fine."

Although the answer was simple, Rick could hear the relaxation and relief in Hugo's voice, which made Rick feel a little relieved. "However, I may spend more time on the band recently, and I have some musical inspiration." Hugo's voice came immediately.

Rick frowned slightly and recalled carefully that since last year's Grammy performance, Hugo has filmed three works: "Seven Deadly Sins", "Death-Break Walk" and "Independence Day". The work intensity is unprecedented, and the band's work has almost been completely shelved. Henry did not complain too much about this. Rick naturally knew that EDA Records must be very anxious. After all, 15 months ago, Honor signed a big contract until his death, but he never released new music works. No matter how outstanding the performance of several singles is, it still makes people look forward to the release of the new album.

Thinking of this, Rick breathed a sigh of relief. After winning the Oscar for the Best Actor, Hugo did need a buffer period. Don’t watch the major film companies are very lively recently, but on the contrary, it is the most dangerous period. Behind the fire cooking oil and flowers, it is often easy to get lost. Although Rick does not believe in the so-called Little Golden Man curse, he also knows that Hugo’s next work must not be careless.

Perhaps, Hugo's rejection of the "Titanic" was indeed a wise choice. As for Leonardo...

"Okay, I understand. I will contact Joe. Recently, your focus of your work has shifted to the band." Rick replied frankly. This is also Rick's most important characteristic, he is ambitious but not greedy.

If it were other agents, they would only think about struck while the iron was hot. Hugo's momentum had reached its highest point in history. The excellent scripts of major film companies were selected. Even the masterpieces like "Titanic" were waiting for Hugo's favor. How could such a good opportunity be missed? But a real hero should know that knowing how to advance and retreat and grasp the measure is not retreat, but brewing a new round of storm and preparing to face greater success.

This rationality has not made the elite brokerage company in Fenjin not be overwhelmed by the success of the past two years and is still developing rapidly.

"Have you talked to Leo?" After Rick reacted, the first question hit the core. As Leonardo's agent, Rick naturally knew Leonardo's pickiness. Even if he wanted Leonardo to play the "Titanic", Leonardo might not be willing.

Hugo couldn't help but chuckled, "Yes, I've talked to him. I think there should be no problem."

Rick nodded slightly, "But is there really no problem with Leo playing the 'Titanic'?" Rick conceived in his mind that since the male protagonists that "Titanic" have always been locked in, it can basically be said to be around Hugo. Now that a sudden change of candidates is Rick, he also needs to reorganize his ideas. From film production to promotional strategies, it is estimated that they all need to be completely changed.

"Rick, believe me, Leo is the most suitable person." Hugo gave a positive answer.

Rick certainly believes in Hugo's vision. Although he has only worked with Hugo for two years, Hugo's sensitivity to the work is beyond the reach of anyone. Even agents like Michael Orwitz and William Morris may not be comparable.

"Okay, I understand." Rick didn't ask too much. In fact, for him, as long as he is an artist under his command, who will eventually get the chance to perform. Hugo will definitely not lack choices, so Leonardo can get the chance to perform, which is naturally good. Rick also knows that Leonardo has unlimited potential and is likely to become another superstar after Hugo. He is very happy to win more opportunities for Leonardo. The real problem is still the 20th Century Fox and Paramount. Of course, there is James Cameron who must not be forgotten. However, this is Rick's job.

The two phone calls ended soon, and Fujin also drove to the town. Since it was right next to the Grand Canyon of Colorado, there were many special camping supplies stores. Under Hugo's leadership, a group of five people entered the store for a large purchase. Then they bought their own laundry changes. In addition, the supplies completed by Hugo and Fujin, the road trip was truly a little bit like this.

After the shopping was completed, they did not rush to explore the Grand Canyon immediately, but returned to the RV and began to lie on their bodies. Yesterday, after a day of running around, so many things happened without sleeping all night. Both energy and physical strength have begun to bottom out. It is absolutely stupid to start entering the Grand Canyon without rest.

Compared to his teammates, Hugo almost touched his head on the pillow and immediately fell asleep. This is a habit that he has developed in the past month. He adapted to life on the road in all aspects from his body to his spirit. Although the other people were still a little uncomfortable, fatigue quickly came and they soon entered a state of sleep.

While sleeping in a daze, Hugo heard a sharp ringtone coming. He sat up alertly and looked at the four corpses that were motionless beside him. He strongly suspected that they would not wake up even if the earthquake came. Hugo rubbed his eyes and looked around and found that his cell phone was ringing.

Who would call him at this time? Hugo got up and walked towards his phone. The ringtone of the cell phone that he thought would hang up kept ringing. Hugo picked up the cell phone, picked it up, ending the death-seeking ringtone, "Hello, this is Hugo."
