Chapter 159 159 Exclusive Interview

After Nicholas turned on the recorder, he placed it on the coffee table. Hugo sat directly opposite him, and Joseph sat quietly beside Hugo. Nicholas looked at Joseph and confirmed that Joseph had no special explanation, he continued to chat with Hugo, "What other hobbies do you have in addition to coffee?"

"Fitness, reading books." In fact, these hobbies have gradually developed. Since there is no Internet or computer in life, Hugo has to find some interests to pass the time.

Fitness is to keep healthy. After the torture of poisonous products, most of the vitality is consumed. Hugo must accumulate again bit by bit, otherwise he will not be able to run before he was over thirty years old, which would be too bad. As for reading, it is Hugo's always hobby. Whether it is physical books or e-books, books are the crystallization of different wisdom. It is very interesting to shuttle through these piles of words.

"Yes, I can see the effect of fitness." Hugo has always been very good. "Hudson Eagle" is also an action comedy. You can see that Hugo is very agile, but later Hugo lost a lot of weight due to poison. It reached the worst level before the Golden Raspberry Award. After that, Hugo seemed to be gradually recovering. As a reporter, Nicholas could clearly see the changes in this process. "As for reading books, have you seen any interesting books recently?"

"Oh, I am an old-school person in this regard. I am recently watching the 'Old Man and the Sea'." Hugo said with a smile that before traveling through time, Hugo dropped out of school at the age of fifteen. Although many people say that reading is useless because society values ​​abilities. For example, knowledge such as mathematics or Chinese is almost impossible to use in work, it cannot be denied that books have more functions of vision, accumulation and background. The so-called bookish spirit is actually the most direct manifestation.

In order to make up for his regret of dropping out of school early, Hugo has been persevering in self-study. This is also the reason why Hugo's current temperament is unique. Without years of accumulation, he would not have been able to perform like this after traveling through time. True handsomeness is actually never a appearance, because it is just a skin. Without the support of energy, the beauty of the skin is difficult to be recognized by everyone. Only with outstanding temperament can everyone conquer everyone. What Hugo has now is not just a skin.

"Ernest Hemingway, a wise choice." Nicholas praised, then nodded slightly, "I thought you would give me another answer when I mentioned my interests and hobbies, but I didn't expect that I would get unexpected gains now."

"Another answer?" Hugo raised his eyebrows and didn't react for a while. Fitness and reading are indeed things he insisted on almost every day. Hugo's first reaction was the "sugar-coated trap". This work was adapted from a novel, and he mentioned reading. Did Nicholas hear some news and want to inquire about this related matter?

But Nicholas gave Hugo a surprise, "Guitar or...any other instrument."

"Ah..." Hugo chuckled. He didn't expect it to be. "Music!" Hugo sighed, "Actually, to be precise, I would rather regard music as a part of my life than just hobbies."

"Wow, I seem to have noticed some inside information about the meaning of this sentence." The excitement between Nicholas' eyebrows became obviously active. It seemed that this was the focus of his first interview today.

Hugo looked at Joseph, thinking about his words, and speaking with caution without knowing his predecessor. "I have always been interested in music since I was a child. You know, Beatles, Michael Jackson..." Hugo almost said that the Oasis Band was coming, but then he thought that the Oasis Band was established in 1991 and is still not a big hit now. If he mentioned it now, it would be a contradiction with "beginning since childhood", so Hugo quickly braked, "There are also the Rolling Stones Band."

"When I really started to 'get in' music," Hugo deliberately strengthened his tone, emphasizing that this was the beginning of his real entry into the music field. "It was because Cott Cobain, you know, he is a legend." This was a bit different from Hugo's own situation, but the fact that Nirvana was indeed a band that Hugo liked very much. The Nirvana, which rose strongly in 1987, was the most consistent with Hugo's current situation, so Hugo found such an entry point for himself.

Sure enough, Nicholas and Joseph suddenly realized that Joseph had never known when the bridge between Hugo and music was built, and now he was answered. Nicholas took over the topic and said, "Nirvana, 'Young Spirit (smells.like.teen.spi)', classic!"

Nicholas unexpectedly discovered that there were so many commonalities between him and Hugo. Nicholas felt this way during the first interview with the crew of "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Women", but it was not clear until today. "No wonder I heard you sing 'Next.time. Seduction. E.me)' and you would be amazing. It turns out that you are not a novice."

As the chat progressed, Hugo no longer had the warning before the interview began, and his emotions completely relaxed. Hearing Nicholas' words, Hugo immediately laughed heartily, "Haha, I am a novice, absolutely novice." Hugo said honestly, "Actually, I am not used to singing in person. I am more used to creating and then playing it through musical instruments. If there is a band, I shouldn't be the lead singer."

"Are you telling me that you are a singer-songwriter? Are you showing off or... showing off?" Nicholas has long been very skilled in dealing with such scenes, but today he obviously has a little more relaxed, and even he himself has not noticed the jump in his tone.

"If you want to think so, then I admit it." Hugo's words made Nicholas laugh directly, "In fact, I did create a few good songs. Maybe I can vote for record companies if I have the chance in the future. Maybe Michael Jackson will ask for my song?"

"Dream..." Nicholas didn't think too much, and blurted out with a joke. It was not like a reporter interview, but like a chat with a friend. After he said it, he also noticed his "unprofessional" and quickly restrained his smile and changed the topic. "So, the ending song of "Yihai Xiongfeng" has attracted so much attention this time. Is it the situation you expected?"

Although the song "Next Time You Met" is just played with a movie, and Hugo has no intention of recording and releasing a single, the popularity of the topic is at its highest level in recent days, and the on-demand rate of the original songs on major radio stations has shown a sudden emergence curve. You should know that Parker's original song was released in 1956 and is not one of the popular songs in the early 1990s.

Hugo did not notice Nicholas' changes, and his smile was still on the corner of his mouth, "No, no, of course I didn't expect it. In fact, it was an unexpected situation to perform the ending song for the movie." Hugo briefly described the situation at that time, but did not say that Uma's visit, but just said that she attracted attention during the break. "Now, after playing with the movie, I was relieved to get such an outstanding smile."

"No, you performed very well this time. Maybe a record company will ask you to release an album soon." Nicholas complimented.

Hugo didn't take it seriously. It is not the 21st century when "pigs, dogs and can produce records". In the Internet era, due to the development of social networks and the simplicity of recording equipment, almost everyone can record their own albums. The signing threshold for record companies has been declining again and again, not to mention the grassroots singing craze brought about by talent shows. In the early 1990s, the record industry has not yet shrunk, and the controversy of hundreds of schools of thought has led to continuous classic works, and the threshold for entry is naturally relatively high.

Nicholas did not expect Hugo's response, so he continued, "So, have you felt the success of the movie now? Can you really feel the popularity is coming?"

"I don't have much feelings. Can you describe it in detail?" Hugo said with his lips pursed and wide eyes. Although he was surrounded once when he went to the movie, to be honest, it was only more than 100 people. Hugo really didn't know what popularity looked like in the true sense.

For Hugo, the hot popularity he imagined came from the concert. Standing on the concert stage of 100,000 people and watching everyone cheer for him, that was truly spectacular.

"The movie has achieved good reputation, and the box office has achieved good results. The audience began to scream and cheer for you. The number of work began to increase, and the recognition and attention began to rise..." Nicholas looked at Hugo with a puzzled look every time he said. These situations were phenomena that suddenly broke out after the successful premiere of "Yihai Xiong Feng". It is more than twice as grand as the previous lively "Smelling the Scent of the Scent", which is also direct evidence that the media generally believes that Hugo has entered the front line for the first time in his ten years since his debut.

"If this is what you mean by popularity, then...yes, yes, I do feel popularity." Hugo nodded slowly and expressed his opinion, "But all this is still not true. You know, it seems that I was still out of my mind not long ago, and now suddenly all the lights are starting to gather, which is... like a dream."

Looking at Hugo's slightly hesitant expression, Nicholas originally wanted to sarcastically say Hugo, which was his usual style, so he blurted out, "That's because you have never experienced what it means to be truly popular, and then fell down." This is Hugo's performance after talking about the "Death Poetry Club". "Of course, now you are enjoying cheers, which is nothing to Tom Cruise, so there is no need to be too happy."

After saying that, Nicholas saw the interesting smile on Hugo's face and nodded slightly to express his affirmation of his words. Nicholas's second sentence came to his mouth and changed his mind, "The most important thing is that today you think all this is like a dream, and maybe a better dream will be born tomorrow, so don't be too surprised. Because, this is Hollywood."
