052 Desperate

Frank has always been very polite. His words are not too mean. He just states the facts, but such words are difficult to make people happy. This is the current situation in Hollywood. Popularity is the only criterion for measuring everything. As for the ways to win popularity, there may be acting, box office, or topic, but the most important thing is to gain attention and gain attention and get gathering. With popularity, everything will be there.

In fact, with Hugo's current situation, if you go to some sports brands, you might get warm welcome. After all, the topic of the Golden Raspberry Award is still enough. However, what top brands like Armani need is male charm and positive image. Compared to Hugo, they have no doubt that they choose Richard.

Although Frank has always been modest and polite, he can clearly feel his strong confidence in the brand and his disdain for Hugo. Imagine that if Richard came to Armani, Frank would definitely be more than just polite.

However, such reality is too cruel and cold, and it makes people helpless.

Hugo and Joseph were originally coming to shop happily, but their mood immediately fell down. Even if they attended the "Last Analysis" premiere, it was not Hugo's own work anyway.

Despite this, Frank continued to say conscientiously, "We have many new models with excellent designs in spring. If you need them, I can introduce them to you in person." But when you look at the gentlemanly smile on Frank's face, you feel that it is cheap, just like a beggar who Hugo can just pass away.

Hugo smiled warmly at Frank and said calmly, "No, I can't afford this price. I think I'd better change one."

Hugo's words were obviously an initiative to admit that he was poor and was just pretending to be timid and showing weakness, but after he said this, the atmosphere on the scene felt a little strange. Hugo seemed to be saying "You Armani is too high-end, I'm not worthy of it." It directly nailed Frank, who had always maintained perfect etiquette, and the smile on his face was stiff and looked very exciting.

Joseph stood beside him and saw Frank's almost twitching facial expression. A smile flashed in his eyes. Looking at Hugo's back straight into the locker room to change clothes, Joseph felt relieved.

Hugo soon changed his clothes, he hung the suit in the locker room, then smiled at Frank, who was standing at the door trying to keep his etiquette, and said politely, "Thank you for your hospitality. I hope I can find a job soon, and when I have enough capital, I hope to get a suitable suit in Armani."

Hugo clearly said humble words, but every sentence was thorny, secretly sarcastic about Armani's claim to be noble, which made Frank not know how to deal with it. In the end, he could only pretend that he didn't understand and said with a smile, "Amani is always waiting for your visit." Then Hugo and Joseph walked out of Armani's shop with their heads raised their heads. Frank, who was left inside the shop, could only look helpless.

Although there were no sarcastic scenes in Armani today, and the clerk did not sarcastic words like Hugo, don't touch it if you can't afford it, and the overall etiquette was very appropriate; but the discrimination that emanated from the bones still looked down on people with a dog's eyes, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

"One day, Armani will come to the door and beg you to wear their clothes. Then you must reject them fiercely." Joseph said in a plain tone. Although his words did not fluctuate, he could clearly hear his unwillingness.

Hugo chuckled, "Don't worry, I will give you this opportunity at that time."

"So do you still have to keep looking at clothes now?" Joseph was amused by Hugo's teasing and felt a little relaxed, but he didn't have much left to continue shopping. Men originally didn't have much preference for shopping, and his experience in Armani just now made people feel even more uneasy.

Hugo widened his eyes and said in surprise, "Do you want me to attend the premiere in the Golden Raspberry Award suit and then be compared by Richard? Or do you want me to attend in T-shirts and jeans?"

Hugo's slightly exaggerated expression made Joseph shake his head helplessly. He naturally knew that this was impossible. Even though they were indifferent now, they still worked, and it was impossible for them to give up because of a little setback. What's more, the filming of "Smelling the Scent of the Scent" has been completed, and now they are waiting for the post-production to be completed. Things are on track, so there is no need for them to be depressed. I believe that today's experience will not last long.

"Then let's go on, why are you still standing there?" Joseph shrugged and gave a positive answer.

Hugo smiled and walked forward, "It was, I saw that there were at least hundreds of famous brand stores here. The problem was not whether we could find suitable clothes, but how much time it would take us to find them." After walking a while, Hugo saw a beautifully decorated store and walked up, "Let's go in and take a look."

But when Hugo was about to push the glass door of the store, he saw Joseph's footsteps staying in place. Hugo thought something had happened and greeted Joseph enthusiastically, "Don't worry, we were negligent about Armani's affairs. There are only two movies to premiere this week. How could this happen in every store?"

Joseph still stood there without moving. His expression was still a little strange, as if the corners of his mouth were twitching, but he seemed to be holding back his smile. Hugo was a little puzzled.

At this moment, the glass door of the store pushed open from inside. It was probably because the clerk saw a customer coming to the door and took the initiative to greet him. Sure enough, Hugo turned around and saw a woman wearing a white shirt and black suit pants, with a neat ponytail, and said with a smile, "Good afternoon, welcome to Chanel women's clothing store."

"Uh..." Hugo's smile suddenly stiffened on his face. He was just talking to Joseph, but he didn't notice that this shop was actually a women's clothing store. No wonder Joseph's behavior just now was so weird. Hugo paused for a moment, then pushed the stiff smile away, "Good afternoon, my female companion seems to have gone to the next store, I'll come over again later." After saying that, Hugo nodded calmly and signaled for a moment, and then walked back to the road.

But Joseph suddenly accelerated his pace, as if he didn't know Hugo, and it seemed that he felt embarrassed.

Hugo followed up depressedly, "Hey, Joseph! You should remind me, you just watch me make a fool of yourself." Hugo lowered his voice and kept complaining. Suddenly he saw Joseph lift his right hand and pointing to the signboard of the shop next to him. Hugo continued to speak, but his head turned, "If I hadn't been clever, the scene would have been awkward. Do you want me to walk in and have a walk..."

Hugo's words came to an abrupt end because he saw the sign of the store saying "Gucci", and then there was a small sign in the lower right corner, "Men's Clothing Store".

"…grass." This is the only word Hugo can say now.

After all, Joseph couldn't help laughing, and his steps forward became lighter. Hugo patted his head in annoyance, but did not dare to look back to see if Chanel's clerk had stood up. He could only quickly follow Joseph's footsteps until he was one hundred yards away from this area. Joseph really laughed out loud - it was very hard to hold it in. This was the first time Hugo heard Joseph laughing loudly.

Looking at Joseph's gloating expression, Hugo couldn't help laughing and burst out laughing. Even if he thought about it himself, he felt that the scene just now was so interesting.

Although Hugo made a big ugly, it made the two of them successfully put Armani's affairs behind their heads and re-entered their shopping plans.

There are countless top brands on Rodeo Avenue. After giving up Armani, the choice is still dazzling. This premiere is very important. Not only is Hugo's first public debut after the Golden Raspberry Awards, but he also has to shoulder the heavy responsibility of resisting Richard's mature charm, so the choice of clothing must not be neglected. Therefore, even though both men are really tired, they are not careless and make do. In the end, after most of the afternoon, Hugo and Joseph finally bought a suitable suit at Givenchy, spending 4,500 US dollars, which is considered to be a large amount of money for the upcoming premiere, and finally ended the torture process.

Holding the suit in his hand, Hugo couldn't help but sigh, "The rent is only 300 US dollars, and a set of clothes is almost our five-month living expenses. It's such a luxury." Seeing the stars in the spotlight, Yunxiang's shadow was envious, but after experiencing it personally, it seemed less beautiful.

But Joseph chuckled, "Isn't the suit you attended at the Hudson Eagle more expensive, don't you remember? In Hollywood, there is never a limit on the price of these things."

Hugo didn't dare to ask how much the suit he had in the "Hudson Eagle" cost, but he muttered in his heart that he didn't remember what clothes were in the closet that looked particularly valuable.

"But last time you went to the bar with that outfit and got drunk and vomited all over. You threw it away the next day. It's a pity. Otherwise, it would be worth a lot of money to use it after dry cleaning." Joseph continued to throw the bomb, and Hugo was stunned.

When Joseph saw Hugo's shocked expression, he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Hugo was stunned, and then said, "Are we so poor that we are going to pawn?"
