Chapter 254: 254

"Hugo..." Joseph seemed to have countless words stuck in his throat, making his throat itchy. Hugo raised his eyes and looked over, as if asking "what" with his eyes. Joseph hesitated for a long time, and said half-covered with his face, "Or, you apologize..." But after saying a while, he was still lacking confidence and swallowed all the following words.

Hugo didn't react at the first time and wanted to say "Who do you want to apologize to?" But seeing the hesitation and hesitation in Joseph's eyes, he thought about it and understood. What Joseph said was to apologize to Tracy.

All of this is the mastermind behind Tracy. So if you apologize to Tracy, maybe things can be solved. And most importantly, Hugo knows that the entanglement between him and Tracy is ultimately the word "love". Love can make women fall in love and also make women crazy. If Hugo is willing to bow his head, maybe he can save Tracy. Then don't talk about this incident, Hugo's acting career will become smooth. This is the law of society. It doesn't matter whether it is right or wrong, but it can make your life easier.

Hugo shook his head with a smile, "Joe, don't mention this matter again, it's impossible for me to do this." Joseph looked at the smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth. Although it was just a shallow curve, there was unquestionable firmness in his eyes, which made all his defenses and questions shattered.

Hugo continued, "Do you remember? I said that some things can be done, some things cannot be done, and some things are disdainful. Tracy's things are what I disdain," and recalled the entanglement between herself and Tracy, sighed, and then continued, "I would rather open my future with my own strength than seek favor with those who are powerful."

Joseph knew that this sentence was said by Wenhao Victor Hugo, and this was the second time he heard Hugo mention it.

Joseph muttered, "I didn't say Tracy..." But after Hugo's gentle gaze, the second half of the sentence disappeared into his throat and became silent.

Hugo stretched out his big waist, walked out of the bed, and stood by his window. The sunshine outside was shining in Los Angeles. The gorgeous sunshine broke through the shackles of dark clouds and put on a gorgeous cloudy cloak for the City of Angels. It was amazing.

Joseph's eyes moved with Hugo, and then stood up, walked to the window, and stopped, "What should I do now?" Joseph's irritability in his heart was stirred up again, "I have tried my best..." This made Joseph a little depressed. He tried his best but unfortunately he still couldn't break through the siege. This feeling of frustration was really bad.

"Joe, why are you so anxious?" Hugo did not divert his gaze, but still looked at the unreachable sea level outside the window. The blue glittered in the sun, as if a pile of broken diamonds gathered together. This made Hugo's body, which had been plagued by illness for a long time, unleashing the soreness and fatigue in his body bit by bit.

"You should know better than me that no actor can have one movie after another. The rest time between the two is shorter than a few weeks, and the longer it is calculated in years. There are many reasons for this. What you are worried about is one of them, such as being outdated and no film company is willing to use it." Hugo's words made Joseph's serious face look a little panic, but it was immediately dispelled by Hugo's smile. "And only willingness to choose a suitable script is also one of them. Because an excellent work can make an actor, and a bad work can also destroy an actor. We both know this very clearly, right?"

Hugo's teasing made Joseph smile bitterly.

"Actually, our situation is just back to the starting point, and there is nothing to worry about. At least, this time there is no trouble with the Golden Raspberry Awards, but instead there is a double nomination for the Golden Globes, and maybe there is an Oscar nomination." Hugo said with a smile, the decadent color between his eyebrows gradually disappeared in the sunshine, and the familiar sunshine gathered again.

Joseph looked at Hugo's bright smile and shook his head awkwardly, which made Hugo stunned. Then Joseph spoke, "There is nomination for the Oscar." Hugo was not selected for the 65th Oscar nomination list officially announced two days ago. Both the male protagonist of "Yihai Xiongfeng" and the male supporting actor of "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Women" were both dismissed, which became the hot topic of discussion that day.

Hugo, who was not long ago, was still incredible for the double nomination of the Golden Globe Awards, was indeed not worthy of the weight in the eyes of the Oscar Academy judges. Whether it was because the impact of the Golden Raspberry Awards on the academy members, the negative impact caused by the recent sensation of big names, or because Hugo's performance was really not qualified to get the Oscar nomination, but the result was that. Hugo did not get the first Oscar nomination in his acting career.

Hugo just paused for a moment and then laughed, "But no matter what, my performance talent is still recognized, right? Unlike last year, no one thinks I have acting skills, and it is too troublesome to prove it." Hugo also wiped the sweat that did not exist on his forehead, which made Joseph pursed his lips helplessly.

Hugo did not continue to speak, but fell silent. Joseph thought Hugo still minded the Oscar nomination, and he didn't know what to say. He couldn't say "there will always be nominations in the future." This is strange. If it is more reliable to say "there will always be nominations in the future" and it is just a nomination, there is really no need to make a big deal.

"Joe, do you know? Actually, I think the big name statement this time makes sense." Hugo's words surprised Joseph, "Why?" Joseph completely couldn't understand. He felt that those statements were ridiculous. As Hugo's closest partner at work, Joseph knew very well whether Hugo was a big name, so he sneered at the newspapers and magazines, but he didn't expect Hugo to say so.

Hugo interrupted Joseph's doubts and continued, "I feel that I am indeed a little proud." Hugo recalled the little things in the past few months. Since the success of "smelling fragrance to recognize women", his popularity has been rising. The smooth sailing of career and love made him feel a little fluttering. The advantages of time travelers can make him invincible. Such thoughts quietly began to take root in his own thoughts. Even if he did not notice them or even think so, his actions were still manifested.

"When I heard the shouts of those fans, I almost thought I was going to be God; when I listened to the praises of the media, I thought I was an absolute genius." Hugo said in a low voice with a sarcastic smile on his lips. Seeing that Joseph seemed to want to refute him, Hugo shook his head, "I'm serious. I really thought I was at the top. Everything just needs to be waved to come. I squandered the money I made easily. I even had three weeks of vacation in Malibu. I don't have much money left in my bank account now, right?"

Joseph had nothing to say, he just opened his mouth and murmured, "There are more than 600,000 left."

Hugo looked surprised and then sneered, "I thought it was at least one million." No wonder it is said that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. He did not realize that he had spent so much money. But when he recalled it carefully, he could not remember where he spent his money.

Joseph looked up at Hugo, "I still owe you a million."

Hugo smiled, "I remember, maybe this will become a life-saving capital in the future." This relaxed tone made Joseph look helpless, "I mean, I wouldn't squander this freely in the past, even if I want to squander, I still have to have plans."

Joseph originally wanted to say that Malibu was all because of Uma, but then he thought that Hugo had just broken up with Uma, so he couldn't continue to sprinkle salt on Hugo's wounds, so he shut up again.

"Not only that, I have indeed neglected the original novel of the "Suill Coated Trap". I did not work hard enough when I tried to fight for the script of "Yihai Xiongfeng" in the past. I did not work hard enough for the audition of "Seattle Night"... It's not about the specific efforts, but the most important thing is my attitude. My attitude has become relaxed. I thought that the excellent performance of two movies could win everyone's recognition, so I relaxed. After going to Malibu for a vacation, I became impatient because I didn't come to my door. I was not impatient after half a year of "Yihai Xiongfeng" ended, but now I am anxious. The main reason is that I have become arrogant. I think the script should come to me."

Hugo said in a little confusion, and it sounded like there was no structure, but Hugo knew what he was saying. Before that, he had never discovered his impetuousness in his heart, because everything was so natural. Fans' support was so supportive and film companies favored him. In a quiet voice, he had begun to enjoy those flashy praises and lost himself.

"This... is confidence!" Joseph was stunned by Hugo's words. He didn't realize that Hugo had thought so much during this period.

"Confidence and arrogance are actually only a thread." Hugo chuckled, "Joe, haven't you noticed my change and your own change?" Hugo actually led to Joseph again, which made him stunned. "After I talked with Ernst last time, I understood that the accusations of the media should be treated rationally, but I ignored them. In fact, the praise for them should be viewed with gorgeous words. Maybe, I am not that powerful; maybe, I am not a genius; maybe, I need to work harder; maybe, I am still far from real success..."

Speaking of this, Hugo paused for a moment and smiled, "And, I'm pretty sure I'm not God." After being lost in the flowers and applause, Hugo once really regarded himself as God in his heart, but now, he woke up from his dream and returned with reason. "So, maybe this incident is a good wake-up call, at least it can make me see the position clearly, don't be too ambitious, or start with yourself down-to-earth. This is the most important thing."

In the entertainment industry, Hugo is just a rookie. He has too many things to learn, and maintains a correct attitude and not lose himself. This is a must-have attitude. Fortunately, when Hugo really becomes arrogant, really starts to be a big shot, really starts to be arrogant, and truly thinks he is God, this incident happened, and everything is still too late.

"We are already standing here, how can the situation be bad? How about it? Are you interested in trying to see it again with me?"

Joseph raised his head and saw the extremely bright smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth, even the sunlight outside the window was eclipsed.
