"How dare you!" Steven was furious. He had put in countless hard work for this script, which was absolutely unprecedented. A small actor like Hugo dared to question his profession and concentration. This made Steven lose his mind. "You don't know the torment in my heart, you don't know the pain I endured, you don't know the energy I put in for this drama, you don't know the impact of those real pictures facing me, you don't know the meaning of that history to me... What do you have? What are you qualified to stand there and sarcastically sarcastically to me, and what are you qualified to stand in front of me and talk to me?"

Hugo raised his hands and surrendered. He did not refute or confront him head-on, but just stood quietly, allowing Steven to vent all his anger.

Hugo knew that when facing family, Steven seeks warmth; when facing friends, Steven seeks comfort. But neither Kate Capshaw nor Robin Williams were the ones who vented his anger, because they were both sources of friendly help. But when negative emotions were suppressed to a certain extent, they had to vent, otherwise they would only cause internal injuries or collapse.

Hugo himself is an actor, and he knows this feeling. During the period of "Seattle's Sleeping Night", he wrote songs to calm his emotions; during the period of "Schindler's List", he could not find a place to support him, and his inner torment almost pushed him to the edge. Therefore, Steven needed to vent, and he needed it, so Mars hit the earth.

After Steven finished speaking, Hugo waited for a while, looking at Steven gasping for breath, and after confirming that he had not spoken again, Hugo said, "So, you are the only one who suffers in the heart, you are the only one who suffers pain, and you are the only one who is so rich in psychological activities?" Hugo did not yell, but still maintained his calmness just now, but frowned, and a strong sense of mockery came out, "What are those survivors of the Holocaust? Are they just decorations? Haven't you seen the tears left by the ladies' collapse because of the shower, have you not seen the shame and struggle on the faces of the elderly when they were asked to take off their clothes?"

"You!" Steven roared loudly, he stood up and took a big stride towards Hugo with great momentum, but he was too angry and could not speak. He could only point Hugo with his right index finger, and then looked at Hugo angrily with his fingers trembling.

Hugo did not retreat, but instead rushed forward, "What's wrong with me? You asked me to play a Nazi, did I enjoy it? Haven't you seen how much struggle and pain I struggled to play this role well? But I didn't complain or shout, because I knew that compared to Regina, compared to Ludger and others, my pain was nothing at all. I hadn't experienced that time personally, and what I called "empathy" was nonsense! So did yours!"

Hugo's words made Steven's face turn ashen. Director Roman Polansky once experienced those years. He was in Krakow when he was eight years old. When the Nazis transferred the Jews from the ghetto of Krakow to Prasov, he escaped. This is why the story of "pianist" later is so real.

But Steven was not like this. He was born in Cincinnati, America. He grew up in an ordinary family. In his early life, his worst experience was probably that his parents divorced and his studies were bad. Hugo's words undoubtedly hurt Steven's inner pain. Not long ago, when he visited Auschwitz concentration camp, Steven was just shocked, but did not "cry out loud". For this, Steven blamed himself because he realized that he had not really experienced those hard years, which also made the "Schindler's list" press on his shoulders and heavier.

"Let me tell you," Steven lowered his voice after extreme anger, as if it was an unstable gunpowder synthetic that could be detonated at any time. He said unhurriedly, "I have the ability to bring you to Poland, and I have the ability to get you back to Hollywood, and you will not find any job in the future! Any!"

"This is your response to me? It's like when you were halfway through filming, you chose to escape because you were in pain, make the entire crew worry about you, make your wife, your children, your friends worry about you, and make everyone wait for you? And now, in the face of my accusations, the response you can give me is to fire me?" Hugo gritted his teeth tightly, preventing himself from falling into Steven's fierce eyes. In fact, Hugo was also a little crazy at this moment. At first, he just wanted to provoke it, but when all his emotions were vented, Hugo also lost his mind and couldn't stop the car. All the irritability, fear, struggle, and pain in his heart burst out at this moment.

In fact, Hugo, like Steven, needs to vent.

"So, you are a coward! A coward!" Hugo said loudly, "You dare not face those pains? The elderly who are almost losing their hair and unable to walk quickly are willing to face that cruel history directly, but you don't have the courage? This is the answer you gave me?"

"If this is the case, then don't shoot this movie, don't start this project!" Hugo's inner surging vented unscrupulously. He has now entered a state of selflessness. It doesn't matter who the person standing in front of him is. "The real meaning of our filming is to reproduce that history and warn future generations. I believe you know this more than anyone else, and we are the chess pieces in your hands, all working hard for this real and moving story. Not only you, but each of us is working hard, each of us is suffering, but you choose to be a coward? It's so ridiculous."

Hugo's words made Steven stand there, and his whole face turned pale in an instant, but Hugo's words still didn't finish them, "If you want to fire me, then... then do this!" Hugo's words paused for a moment, but he still said it without hesitation, worrying but firm. This is his choice, even if he has to face an uncertain future, "because I will not choose to be a coward!"

Steven then recovered and looked at the boy in front of him seriously, as if he had just met for the first time today. Hugo's amber eyes were now blooming with an extremely firm light, bursting with courage to give in. The soft lips were only stretched into a straight line, embellished with strength and resilience. The neat hairstyle of the soldier outlined his handsome face with iron blood and strength that had remained after bathing in the fire of war.

Steven discovered that he had never really known Hugo. Just from his appearance, Hugo was a sunny young man, but in fact, Hugo's temperament was full of countless possibilities, which not only made the role of Amon tremble, but also showed his incomparable strength.

Thinking of this, Steven muttered twice, trying to say something, but found that his words were spinning in his throat and he couldn't say anything. It has been the 22nd year since Steven entered the industry in 1971. He has seen all kinds of people, and he has seen people who are more tough and more powerful than Hugo. But Hugo in front of him is so convincing that Steven has no way to refute. Finally, he could only whisper, "I just want to calm down... slowly."

Steven rubbed his painful temples, but he didn't continue to hold on. He let out a long breath, as if he wanted to express his inner depression and entanglement. "But you are right, the filming process of this work is a torment for everyone. I am a director and a producer, so I should shoulder this responsibility more, rather than hiding in the house alone to heal myself."

Steven said this passage very vaguely, and Hugo could only listen to a single one, but Hugo did not interrupt Steven because he knew that Steven was not really talking to him, but was just trying to clarify a thought. After some catharsis, Hugo gradually calmed down, and the darkness in his heart seemed to be dispersed little by little with the shouts, but Hugo knew that this was only temporary, and unless the filming of the movie ended, he could not completely get out of the role. Even so, the brief release still relaxed Hugo's tight shoulders a little.

The room was quiet, as if after half a century, Hugo finally calmed down when he saw Steven's excited expression, and then he said, "Have you ever thought that I would come to talk to you?"

"No." Steven shook his head. He thought he would be producer Kathleen Kennedy. She has been working together since "Alien E.t". The two have worked together for nearly ten works so far, and are one of the closest partners.

Hugo was not surprised by the answer, he shrugged, "In fact, I didn't. When Robin spoke this proposal, I thought he must be crazy."

"Yes, this is such a bad idea." Steven chuckled. Although it was just a little voice, the corner of his mouth could not rise, but he still laughed.

Listening to Steven's words, Hugo couldn't help but sneer. The whole thing that happened just now was really unbearable to look back on. The only thing Hugo remembered now was that he yelled at Steven Spielberg. As for the specific content, it seemed a bit vague. When people fell into anger, they often spoke nonsense, so they didn't remember what they said afterwards.

"I think I should leave, the crew is still waiting for you." Hugo was silent for a while, pointed to the direction of leaving, and then took a step. He and Steven were not friends, so after the two of them roared at each other, the atmosphere was quite awkward, so leaving should be a wiser choice.

Looking at Hugo's back as he left, Steven suddenly spoke, "Aren't you afraid that I will really fire you? You know, I will really do this."
