Chapter 280 280 Screaming Fans
When it comes to New York, people always seem to be unable to leave the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building and Central Park. Of course, there are countless tourist attractions worth mentioning in this world's largest city. This is the second time Hugo has come to New York in a year. The last time it was because of the shooting of "Smelling the Scent of a Woman", and this time it was because of the shooting of "Seattle's Sleeping Night". In the same way, Hugo and the entire crew arrived in New York quietly, and there was no enthusiasm from the media. Obviously, Hugo and Meg, who are in poor condition, have not attracted the media's firepower.
Without media attention, there is no impact on the crew. The crew went to the Empire State Building without stopping, where they will film the final encounter between Sam and Anne in the play, which is the finale of the movie.
The inspiration for Nora Evelon to write the script "Seattle Night Without Sleeping" came from the movie "Jinyumeng". The heroine's favorite movie in the play is "Jinyumeng". The finale of the movie was also written to make up for the regret of the male and female protagonists in "Jinyumeng" who failed to meet at the Empire State Building.
Therefore, Nora arranged at the end of the story, Sam and Anne met on the top floor of the Empire State Building, giving the perfect end to this love affair arising from the radio. At the same time, this was also the first real meeting and conversation between Sam and Anne. Then how to grasp the sparks generated by this meeting is very important, allowing the story to be able to end with a perfect end.
Since Nora wanted to shoot on-site at the Empire State Building and present the real effect as perfectly as possible, after obtaining the consent of the Empire State Building, the crew's shooting time seemed very compact. They had to complete the shooting of the scene within one night, not only because of the coordination issues with the Empire State Building, but also the pressure of renting the shooting site. The cost of shooting on-site at the Empire State Building is not cheap.
The Empire State Building is one of the most important and iconic buildings in New York. It was not only once the tallest building in the world, but also known as one of the seven major engineering miracles in the world. It was built in the 1930s and is considered a symbol of the US economic recovery. Of course, standing on the roof of the Empire State Building, the scenery of the small mountains is also unique. King Kong climbed to the Empire State Building and stood at the "peak of the world".
So, when Hugo climbed to the top of the Empire State Building, the first thing he did was to leave the crew members behind, walk to the edge of the building, and look at the entire steel forest in Manhattan from here. New York is one of the cities with the most high-rise buildings in the world, especially on the island of Manhattan, hundreds of concrete buildings are scattered in every corner of the island, forming a cold and cold forest, extending densely in the sight. The silver, yellow, and red lights are roaming around the forest like countless fireflies, faintly outlining the arc of the forest, spreading high and low to the horizon. Then you can see a dark blue jade belt cutting off the forest, which should be the Hudson River, and then there is a gray area gradually lowering.
This spectacular scene constructed by artificial brings a sense of magical visual impact. Unlike the spiritual baptism brought by the magnificence of nature, the picture is piled up by humans bricks and tiles in front of you, and it is more of a spiritual shock. It is like the feeling of seeing the Great Wall, the pyramids, and the garden in the sky. The indescribable impact makes people sigh that the human landscape also has the ability to make language lose its color like a natural landscape.
"So, how do you feel?" Meg also walked to Hugo's side, looked at the scene in front of her and asked, but the oncoming wind made her inhale a large mouthful of air as she spoke, and she couldn't help but cough twice.
Hugo's eyes were also a little astringent by the strong wind. He turned around to avoid the limelight that was coming towards him, looked at Meg and smiled, "Cold?" It was already nine o'clock in the evening, and it was New York in March again. The weather was not only cold, but even bone-bone.
Meg was originally lowering her head and rubbing her eyes, but she was amused by Hugo. She tilted her head and glanced at Hugo, and said with a smile, "I thought I should have a little more sigh."
"Yes, yes..." Hugo nodded repeatedly, and he squinted his eyes and looked into the distance again. "I heard that standing here you can see the views of the five nearby states, but... I don't know, I can't even see Brooklyn now."
"Didn't you notice that it's already night?" Meg chuckled, "There are not so many cities nearby that are never sleeping." Even on a global scale, there are not many cities like New York that stay sleepless all night.
"That's a pity. I originally planned to enjoy the scenery in other states." Hugo spread his hands and expressed regret.
"Then you should choose to travel." Meg retorted with a chuckle.
"Hugo? Hugo! Ah... Hugo!" A series of screams behind him interrupted the chat between Hugo and Meg, which scared Meg. Hugo subconsciously took a half-step back, blocked the lady behind him, took advantage of the situation and looked at the situation. Then he saw two girls running wildly in front, and behind him were the familiar faces of several crew members.
The scene was just organizing tourists to cooperate with the shooting. Because before Anne and Sam met, Jonah arrived at the Empire State Building first, and there were many tourists at that time, so Nora hoped to allow some tourists to stay and cooperate with the crew's shooting. On the one hand, the crew began to set up shooting equipment such as lights and microphones, and on the other hand, they organized the tourists, hoping that tourists who were willing to join in the shooting could cooperate with the crew.
But at this time, two girls obviously broke through the staff blockade and rushed towards Hugo and Meg. When they heard their voices, the target was Hugo.
Almost as Hugo reacted, the two girls rushed to Hugo, and shouted with excitement, "Hugo, Hugo..." They seemed to be at a loss because they were too excited, and they didn't know what to say except calling Hugo's name.
The staff behind him had already chased after him, then grabbed the two girls, apologized to Hugo, and persuaded the two girls to obey order, but Hugo raised his hand to stop the staff, "It's okay, it's okay, we're okay." Hugo looked back at Meg and asked confirmation, "Are you okay?"
Meg nodded and raised his chin with a smile, "This is your fan."
Hugo turned his head with a smile and looked at the girl standing on the right hand side, "You...uh, have we met before?" Hugo has always had obstacles to remembering the names of people. It is difficult for him to keep a large number of names in his mind. Many times, he looks familiar with his face, but he never can match the names. This is the case at this time.
"Do you remember me?" The girl started screaming again excitedly, "Ah...ah! Do you remember me?"
Hugo couldn't help but smile. The test he suffered from his eardrums was really difficult, but he still nodded with a smile, "Yes, but...sorry, I don't remember when I saw you." After experiencing the big brand suspicion not long ago, Hugo's mentality changed again. Seeing fans willing to scream for him again, it would be more accurate to describe Hugo's mood as joy. So, Hugo honestly expressed his thoughts: he didn't remember when he saw this girl somewhere.
Meg looked at Hugo who was telling the truth and couldn't help but open her mouth. Not to mention her, even the three staff members who followed her laughed in surprise. Hugo's slightly silly behavior is unbearable for celebrities. It is normal for celebrities to remember fans. Occasionally, hundreds of fans will be seen at one premiere. How could every face have an impression? But celebrities will never admit this, because it will be a "hurt" to the fans' mood. But Hugo just admitted it like this, which is really ridiculous.
However, the girl obviously didn't care at all. She still looked excited, as if she would faint in the next second, but she still tried to explain, trying to evoke Hugo's memory, "I watched 'Yihai Xiongfeng' with my father before in the General Cinema, and then met you..." But Hugo still shook his head honestly, and the bystanders rolled their eyes again, "Uh...uh...I, after I saw you, I started screaming, and then many people watched?"
"Screaming?" Hugo seemed to have finally had an impression. Of course, he remembered that when he was watching "Yihai Xiongfeng" in the General Cinema, he was surrounded by a large group of fans. That was the first time he encountered such an attitude and the first time he learned that he was already a little popular. But at this time, Hugo overlapped the screaming girl with the girl in front of him.
"Ah! Ah!" the girl screamed again, but this time it was more like a demonstration, successfully awakening Hugo's memory, "Oh, it's you! I remember you!" Hugo's face suddenly appeared with a look of happiness. He finally overlapped the girl in front of him and the blurry image in his memory.
"Yes, yes, it's me! It's me!" The girl was so happy that she could hardly control her emotions, so that her friends who were standing beside her were forgotten by her, and her friends could only have a helpless expression on their faces.
"I'm glad to see you." Hugo's smile finally bloomed completely. No matter when and where, it is always fun to meet his supporters, especially since Hugo is in a difficult period now, and it is difficult for him to feel that he is still supported by someone.
"Ah...ah..." This was the girl's answer. She looked at Hugo's right hand that stretched out, and didn't even dare to hold it. She could only look at Hugo's right hand and kept screaming.
Hugo's right hand was hanging in the air, quite embarrassed. He could only reach over and pat the girl's arm politely, which caused an even more exaggerated scream, bravely hitting the raging wind on the roof of the Empire State Building. However, Hugo couldn't help laughing. The girl's reaction in front of him was really interesting. "What's your name? Uh... Although I may not remember it, politely, I still hope to know because you left a deep impression on me, through screaming."
