056 Front Page Scandal
"There is no doubt that Hugo Lancaster is the most watched man in Los Angeles on March 18th. Not only because he is full of youthful vitality, his elegant and handsome dress appears at the premiere of the 'Last Analysis', stealing all the eyes of women; but also because two super beauties, Kim Basinger and Uma Thurman, both favor this handsome man, and their every frown and smile is just for Hugo."
This was the premiere report written by James Rut for Us Weekly the next day, and he obviously focused on Hugo.
"When Hugo appeared on the red carpet, a new custom-made suit from Givenchy's spring perfectly presented his handsomeness. The charm that was enough to make people breathe a breath became the brightest scenery before the sunset in Los Angeles. Putting aside Hugo's actors' performance, Hugo's charming appearance is beyond doubt. Neither the wise and calm Michael Douglas or the handsome and charming Richard Kiel could compare with Hugo. This twenty-five-year-old boy lit up the most dazzling light in the spring of 1992 with his warm and gentle charm.
I think there will not be too many oppositions to this, as the audience's reaction at the premiere can prove this, and the favor of Basinger and Thurman shows Hugo's powerful attraction to women.
As the goddess in the minds of countless people in Hollywood, Kim's charm has been countless certified, but when she saw Hugo, she was still attracted by it. "When I saw him, I thought to myself, I must know him. So I did this." After the premiere, Kim said this in an interview. After the episode before the premiere, in the audience interview where the movie was played, Kim once again expressed her welcome to Hugo's attendance, "You make my night beautiful." Hugo, who was sitting in the audience, responded with a shy smile. If three days later, someone saw Kim and Hugo go out for dinner together, please don't make a fuss.
Uma Thurman, the 22-year-old actress has amazing beauty. Her prospects in Hollywood are obviously highly anticipated. Under the attention of everyone last night, she presented her beautiful red lips to Hugo. The passionate kiss showed people the invincible splendor and beauty of youth.
Undoubtedly, the amazing chemical reaction between Uma and Hugo kept warming up the atmosphere on the scene, and it also became everyone's biggest question last night: Is there a romance between the two of them? Although Uma denied this statement in the interview after the premiere and insisted that they were just friends and very good friends, she did not hide her favor for Hugo, and Hugo reviewed this statement.
However, if Uma and Hugo came together, I don't think anyone would protest.
That amazing kiss also became the absolute focus of everyone's attention last night.
In addition, Richard Keel also showed his mature charm on the red carpet and was still elegant. He is the male lead of the movie's "Final Analysis". He said that the cooperation with Kim and Uma was very pleasant. At the same time, the "Ben Neng" produced by Columbia Pictures also held a grand premiere at the Chinese Theatre, with the starring Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone all attending in great costumes."
After reading this report, you can clearly see that Hugo has become the absolute protagonist in James's works, and both Richard and Ben Neng's starring roles have become supporting roles. Look at the front page photos of "Us Weekly" this week, which is a large photo of Uma holding Hugo's cheeks and kissing enthusiastically. The two of them are clearly presented on the cover of the newspaper in a beautiful curve, which is beautiful among the bright yellow lights of the theater. The bold title "Suspected Scandal?" is even more eye-catching, attracting the attention of countless people.
In fact, it is not just "Us Weekly". On the second day of the premiere of "The Last Analysis", more than 60% of the entertainment media chose the photos of Hugo and Uma kissing passionately as the front page; 20% of the entertainment media pages chose the sudden emergence of the movie "Ben Neng" as the front page; there are 20% of the various stories, including half of the topics about Hugo, such as Hugo stealing Richard's limelight, the uninvited guest Hugo disrupted the wishful thinking of the two premieres, such as Hugo's appearance after the Golden Raspberry Award...
It can be said that Hugo's debut this time was not only a success, but also a complete victory. The investment of $4,500 per suit is worth the price. Givenchy's new spring design immediately became the number one target for Hollywood celebrities. On the contrary, Richard, who attended Armani, seemed a little uncomfortable, but I don't know what Frank, the head of the Armani Rodeo Avenue branch, felt now.
What's even more surprising is that Uma's kiss to Hugo completely triggered all topics, which can be said to be the result of the right time, place and people. In fact, Uma is just a newcomer who has just debuted not long ago, and Hugo is already in a low point, and even if the two people have real scandals, they probably cannot create such a big effect.
But on the one hand, Hugo's gimmick debut since the Golden Raspberry Awards, plus the prelude to "Smelling the Scent to Know Women"; on the other hand, Hugo's charm that night attracted the attention of all women, including Jin and Uma; what cannot be ignored is that the two movies "Final Analysis" and "Ben. Neng" originally contain a lot of love, color and pictures, which also makes topics such as appearance, charm, men and women infinitely magnify.
With such multiple effects, the explosive effect today was led to today's amazing effect, which no one expected.
Richard Keel's agent bought all the major newspapers and magazines early in the morning, but after seeing the front page headlines, he hid all the newspapers, hoping that Richard would not see today's news, which would affect his mood. But unfortunately, as a veteran actor who has been in the entertainment industry for fifteen years, Richard naturally would not forget his habit of reading newspapers on the second day of the premiere. So when he asked his agent "How is the report today? Is it good to react?", he discovered the agent's abnormality. His dodging eyes and stuttering words made Richard realize something was wrong, "Where is the newspaper?"
As a result, Richard saw the huge photos and eye-catching titles in newspapers and magazines such as "Us Weekly". What's worse, the report on Richard's movies was only the last one. Richard hadn't encountered such treatment for many years, which made Richard's face suddenly become extremely stiff.
Lang Meyer looked at the front page of "US Weekly" and seemed to swallow a fly, with shock and incredible faces, not to mention the anger and irritability that followed. Thinking back to Hugo and Joseph's initiative to ask to attend the premiere of "Ben Neng" and were rejected by him, Lang felt that he had been slapped twice on the face.
Hugo successfully attended the premiere, and it was the premiere of his competitor "Ben Neng". This was the first slap on Lang's face; as a result, Hugo also attracted everyone's attention. Even the news that "Ben Neng" held a grand premiere at the Chinese Theater did not make the front page headlines, but became the last sentence attached to Hugo's scandal reports. This was the second slap on Lang's face.
Lang felt his cheeks sore, and a sense of shame drowned him in an instant. "Gary!" Lang dragged his voice and shouted tyrannically with nowhere, which made Gary, who had been guarding outside the door, suddenly became trembling. He knew something was wrong. Although seeing Hugo appearing handsomely on the front page was something that Gary loved very much, it was not so beautiful to bear Lang's anger.
Gary pushed open the office door and walked in. Lang hit a large ball of things coming towards him. Gary subconsciously avoided it and looked down at the front page of "US Weekly" that was crumpled into waste paper. Then he heard Lang's voice suppressing infinite anger and asked, "Where is the front page of "Entertainment Weekly"?"
"Hugo and Uma." Gary must try to suppress the joy in his heart and say as calmly as possible.
“'Los Angeles Times'?"
"Hugo." Gary said happily, and he added excitedly, "It was Hugo's photo alone on the red carpet, it was really handsome..." But when he was halfway through his words, Gary was frightened by Lang's cannibalistic eyes, and swallowed the words afterwards, "The effect of the photo is really good..." Gary muttered in a low voice.
"Bastard! Beast! Damn disgusting chrysanthemum flower!" Lang finally couldn't help it, and kicked his boss' chair furiously, and walked around the office like a madman, as if a time bomb that would explode at any time.
Although Gary has been serving as Lang's assistant for a short time, Lang has changed assistants very frequently. After being hired, he asked several previous assistants and knew that Lang's temper was so bad. At this time, he needed to comfort Lang with some good news. This is the wisest way. "But the market response of 'Ben. Neng' is very good. The overall media and audience feedback are better than the 'last analysis'." This is probably the only surprise after yesterday's premiere. In the collision of two similar works, "Ben. Neng" has the upper hand. Although the reputation of "Last Analysis" is relatively good, it is obvious that the topic effect of "Ben. Neng" is more outstanding. In layman's terms, the former is probably praised, while the latter has a greater chance of being popular.
But obviously, this good news did not calm down at this moment. He paused for a moment and roared again, "But there are Hugo Hugo everywhere! Why can't I see the news about our video?"
"Uh...because Hugo is really handsome?" Gary replied carefully.
Chapter completed!
