Chapter 319: 319

Brad Pitt sat in the office and looked at Martin Baum in front of him. After a year of baptism, Brad had gradually grown up. Although he was extremely anxious at this moment, his panicked eyes, tight expressions, and constantly shaking feet all revealed his true emotions, but at least he was still sitting on the sofa, not thinking of using rich body language and irritable words as before to convey his detailed thoughts in his heart.

In fact, compared to Brad, Martin was more irritable at this time. He spent too much effort to participate in the "Schindler's List" project, so that the "California Killer" that Brad was filming was forced to put aside twice. Martin called Brad, who was filming in Atlanta, to New York and meet Tracy for audition. Today, Brad also had a filming mission in Burbank, Los Angeles, but has not set off yet.

It can be said that Martin put most of his bets on the "Schindler's List". He mainly hopes that this work will allow Brad and Steven Spielberg to join the company, and take advantage of the big commercial director's east wind to taste some box office gains. This is very important for Brad's future entire actor career planning. After all, low-cost independent films like "Big River Love" and "California Killer" are difficult for actors to develop in the long run.

In fact, Martin's plan for Brad is similar to Lang's plan for Hugo at the beginning. He both started to polish his acting skills from a young age, and then sought the right time to go to the big stage. However, Lang was a little anxious after the "Death Poetry Club", which ruined the previous preparations, and his quick success and instant performance actually put Hugo into a trough.

This time Martin didn't want to make the same mistake. His plan was always cautious. Even if he had hope for "Schindler's list", he just hoped that Brad could get on the line. So in addition to "Schindler's list", he also took over the work "California Killer" for Brad.

Now an accident has come. The "Schindler's List" that has been planning for nearly three months has lost all the time, and the ignored "California Killer" has become Brad's life-saving straw. Martin feels a headache about this. Moreover, Martin knows that Brad missed "Schindler's List" just the beginning. Due to the relationship between Brad and Tracy, if Hugo can take advantage of this opportunity to rise again, the strength of the competitor will only further compress Brad's script space, let alone those widely involved connections.

Thinking of this, Martin could only rub his temple hard, "Shit! How did he get this opportunity? Why did the previous things change their minds at the last moment! Damn, they should all go to hell!" Martin's mood fluctuated so much that it was very difficult to control, and swear words came out one after another.

"Martin, what should I do now?" Brad still couldn't practice his home after all, and finally couldn't bear it and asked his inner questions anxiously.

"What?" Martin was in a bad mood and replied angrily.

Brad had to stand up, "Hugo! That guy got this role. If he succeeded, what should I do?" Unconsciously, Hugo had become Brad's biggest competitor, not only because of Tracy, but also the competition on the road of actors. The repeated showdowns between the two people were Brad at a disadvantage, which made him very difficult to accept.

Before, Brad was complacent because Hugo missed the "icing trap" and "Schindler's list". He thought he would take over these two movies and then make his acting career a leap forward. But unexpectedly, he missed the former, while the latter turned around and finally fell into Hugo's hands. This was a result that Brad could not accept.

"He has already gone to Poland, what else can I do!" Martin tried hard to suppress his voice, but he still yelled out accidentally. He could clearly hear his irritability and depression, but he was an old fox after all. He took a few days to adjust his emotions. "You should focus on the performance of the 'California Killer' and do your own job well. Aren't you afraid of not having a chance to make a comeback? Even if you don't believe in yourself, you should believe me!"

"But..." Brad couldn't listen at all, and he still felt unwilling to accept it.

Martin widened his eyes, "As long as you play the 'California Killer' well, leave the rest to me, and I promise you will have a brighter future than Hugo!" Although Martin did not have as strong feelings as Brad, after this confrontation, he also remembered the unhappiness he suppressed by Hugo during the last audition of "Yihai Xiongfeng". So whether it was for the sake of interests or to vent his anger, Martin already regarded Hugo as a goal that must be defeated.

Seeing Brad standing still in place and not willing to leave, Martin sneered, "Don't worry, 'Schindler's list' is not as bright as you think. Maybe Hugo fell into another abyss. I will find another work for you that is enough to compete with him!"

After receiving the guarantee, Brad turned around and left the office, but before leaving, he still punched the wall angrily. Only this direct vent could vent his anger! "Hugo Lancaster!" Brad almost gritted his teeth.

On the other hand, Lang Meyer's situation is not much better than Martin. He can't figure out how Hugo completed the reversal at the last moment and became a member of the crew of "Schindler's List". They planned for so long, but they didn't want to make wedding dresses for others at the last moment. This anger and depression instantly went upstream, making Lang feel that his brain was lacking in oxygen, and his eyes turned dark, and he almost couldn't stand it. In anger, Lang directly smashed his desk.

In the past two months, Lang has been in a roller coaster. At first, he saw Hugo making a comeback with the help of two works, so he became interested in poaching Hugo again; but then Tracy's strategy succeeded, which made Hugo fall to the bottom in an instant, and his mind was extinguished again; but now, Hugo, who originally thought he had fallen to shoot a girl movie, completed a counterattack and snatched the food from their bowls, which made Lang unable to breathe and almost fainted on the spot. He didn't know whether his heart could withstand such a violent stimulation!

Looking at Lang who was furious in the office, Gary Scott stood at the door and restrained his smile. In fact, he knew that Hugo was very happy for Hugo when he got the role, but this emotion could not be revealed in front of his boss, so Gary put on a cautious and serious expression and knocked on Lang's office door, "Lang, Tracy's phone number."

"Grass! Grass! Grass!" Lang's anger could be felt directly through a wall, making Gary shrank his shoulders and looked cautious, fearing that Lang would take his anger on him, "Come on!" Lang said with his remaining rationality, which made Gary run back to the back of his table as if he had been amnesty.

Lang kicked the landline on the ground, then bent down and answered it, picked up the phone and started cursing, "What the hell are you doing! Why is this happening? Haven't you worked with Steven in 'purple'? Why is it useless to speak in front of him!"

"Shut up!" Tracy's anger was not inferior to Lang. "If you want to push the mistake on me, you can save money now, because it's not just you, I'm also dissatisfied with the result. No, I have to be even more dissatisfied!" Tracy said irritably, making Lang breathe heavily, but finally didn't get angry anymore. "Did you get any news? How did Hugo join the crew?"

Lang stuck his waist, like an ant on a hot pan, paced back and forth in depression, "No, there is no news. Now the crew is in Poland, and the news is too slow to come back."

Tracy felt that her head was about to explode. She absolutely could not accept such a result, but she knew that the more angry she was, the more she needed to calm down. Only in this way could she find a solution to the problem. "We can't be confused by ourselves now, we must calm down. We must first verify whether there is no chance of turning around the 'Schindler's list'. If not, then we must understand the cause and effect. Only by knowing the root of the problem can we avoid and even solve the problem."

Lang's experience is not less than Tracy. He just likes to vent his emotions. After he vented, he quickly calmed down. "What are your plans now? In fact, the 'Schindler's list' will be 100% successful, right? Everyone reserves their attitude towards this project. So, is it possible for us to find a better work and start filming as soon as possible, and then play against Spielberg?"

"Of course, why can't you find it? This is Hollywood, this is a place to believe in miracles!" Tracy said this with gritted teeth. Although she was unwilling to admit it, the crew of "Schindler's List" had already set off for Poland, and the matter was settled; then, next is another war. This time, she will stand opposite the "Schindler's List". Although Steven Spielberg is a giant crocodile, there is not only Steven in Hollywood!

"Even if we can't find it, we have to create one!" Tracy said firmly. She would never allow Hugo to turn things around. She spent so much effort to suppress the positive effects brought by "smelling fragrance and knowing women" and "Yihai Heroes". If Hugo really gets Steven's power to rise, the power balance between the two of them will become increasingly balanced. "What's more, Hugo has a chick movie to drag down. As long as we find a movie that can fight against the 'Schindler's list', then everything is not yet time to draw a conclusion!"
