071 Uneasy news
Hugo did not miss the look that Uma gave herself before leaving, and the charm that gently stirred up in her eyes was not intentional, but more like the ripples in her heart that inadvertently leaked the spring light in the sun, making Hugo smile. After the kiss at the last premiere and the hint of Uma during today's conversation, if Hugo still didn't understand what was going on, he would be a piece of wood.
Hugo could feel his heart throbbing slightly, and the strong desire for physiological pursuit made Hugo a little uncomfortable. The two meetings between him and Uma were a little abnormal. The first kiss made people caught off guard. Today, he chatted a few times in such a mess. How could he suddenly feel good?
Could it be because of the relationship between the predecessor? After all, before Hugo traveled over, the predecessor was enthusiastically pursuing Uma, but it was interrupted by her own time travel. Uma was also attracted by her abnormal performance. Although Uma "sees through" Hugo's trick of playing hard to get when she first met, it can also be seen that she also had a good impression of her predecessor, otherwise she would not have had the first unexpected meeting, and today she showed her good impression of herself so frankly.
Hugo touched his heart, could he still feel the true emotions of his predecessor? This should be the only normal explanation. Hugo subconsciously shook his head, trying to shake off the itchy emotions in his head, and took a few breaths to calm the turbulent heart.
"Hey, man, what are you thinking?" A cry came from the left front interrupted Hugo's thoughts. He looked up and looked over the sun, and saw Carl's figure walking straight over, "Is that beauty just now Uma Thurman?" Carl had an ambiguous smile on his face, obviously implying the inspiring relationship between Hugo and Uma.
Hugo couldn't help but laugh, "Friends, just friends."
"Are you sure?" Carl's smile rose, "I was watching your conversations there just now, and I'm not an ordinary friend." Although Carl didn't say it clearly, the meaning in his words was clearer. He was standing next to him just now, looking at the comfortable conversation between Hugo and Uma, and the faint sense of harmony around the two of them. Even if he was just watching, he could see that there was a spark between the two of them.
Hugo chuckled, not responding to Carl's words. Then he heard Carl continue, "Anyway, you are single now, there is nothing wrong with trying it bravely. You and Uma look very harmonious. Or do you have a date?" Carl asked uncertainly, "I heard that Joseph said there was no..."
Carl's words made Hugo laugh and cry. Although it seemed unusual to hear Carl's heart beat, Hugo firmly believed that this was the influence of his predecessor. So Hugo stood up with a phonograph in his arms, "You can't stop here, hurry up, if you don't want to be ticketed, we'd better leave now."
Carl did not continue to make jokes. After all, his relationship with Hugo was just average, and he was not familiar enough to make jokes at will. Carl played the scene of Hugo and Uma just now in his head, and couldn't help but chuckled. He thought that there must be something between the two people, but it was not yet confirmed that Hugo would say "just a friend". Carl quickly walked to the side of the road, raised the two desk lamps, and walked towards the pickup truck parked not far away.
Hugo and Carl joined forces to carry all the furniture into the pickup truck and took it home. From a distance, they saw Joseph and Alex standing at the door quarreling with an old man, saying it was a quarrel. The most important thing was that the old man was blushing and complaining. Joseph and Alex stood beside each other in a normal manner, without much reaction.
When Hugo and Carl approached, the old man strode into the building with angrily, "What's wrong?" Carl stretched out his head from the driver's seat and asked.
"It's okay, he said we blocked the corridor and affected the entry and exit." Joseph said simply.
Alex, who was standing next to him, also looked helpless, "The old man living on the second floor seems to be a living alone, and he always talks about a lot of opinions."
"You have to allow others to express their opinions, and we did block the corridor." Hugo didn't think too much and said with a smile, "I just said why haven't you been there for so long? Okay, let's help together!"
After unloading the car of furniture, the four of them ran out again and filled the car in a scattered manner. This was the end of today's shopping.
After all the furniture was arranged and the simple cleaning was cleaned, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening. The pizza takeout came very quickly. In less than a quarter of an hour, four people sat in the lobby on the third floor and started to enjoy dinner.
At this time, the hall was no longer so empty. Two connected shoe cabinets were added at the door. Since there was only one set of sofas before, several sofa piers were added to fill the living room space. A storage cabinet was added next to the low cabinet, which put all the things to be used in the living room, and the phonograph was placed on the storage cabinet. Three high stools were added next to the dining table, and the microwave oven, pan and other items refilled in the kitchen, so there was finally some home flavor here. Although the overall decoration was still very simple, I believe that with the continued time of their living here, there will be more and more decorations and the home flavor will become stronger and stronger. After all, this is just the first day.
Of course, the most important thing is that there is a TV in the living room.
"Are you sure you want to turn on the TV?" Joseph looked at Hugo helplessly. Since Alex had not paid the cable TV fee, the TV service had been suspended for a long time and could not see anything. Even if the TV was on, it was just a snowflake, but Hugo still insisted on turning on the TV.
Hugo took a hard bite of the pizza, his mouth filled with fragrant dough, showing a satisfied expression, "Of course, don't you think there is at least a little sound in the room after the TV is turned on? If the four of us were silent at the same time, the living room would not be so embarrassing. If we don't believe it, we won't talk now."
After Hugo's words fell, the four big men looked at me and I looked at you, and the boring rustling sound of the TV was still ringing. The atmosphere was not awkward, but when Hugo deliberately emphasized it, the feeling of joy suddenly came out. As a result, Alex couldn't hold it back at first, and burst out laughing, followed by Hugo, then Carl, and finally Joseph was also amused and laughed.
"If you have vinyl records at home, it's good to play music." Alex couldn't put it down when he saw Hugo come back from a phonograph. He occasionally listened to vinyl records at home. This kind of enjoyment is really something that makes people yearn for.
"When you bring your woman back for a date next time, I will prepare a few romantic records for you." Hugo said with a smile on his face. In fact, this is just a joke. Hugo had not been exposed to vinyl records before traveling through time, and he knew nothing about phonographs. If he wanted to understand, he could only start from scratch.
However, Alex immediately smiled satisfied and sat next to him, nodding repeatedly, "Then I'm looking forward to it."
"The crew of 'Yihai Xiongfeng' did not call you today?" Carl looked at Joseph and asked curiously.
Joseph shook his head, and Carl frowned, "Can you not receive the call because we have been running outside?" Today they were running around almost all day, and even at home, they were so busy that they didn't touch the ground. It was normal not to hear the phone ringing.
"No." Joseph was a little more calm, mainly because Joseph had experienced more in the past two months. He also knew that he could not help here even if he was anxious, so he might as well treat it calmly. "Rober and the others knew that the phone number in the office would leave messages in the office even if he did not contact me."
Now that mobile phones are not widely used, the phone number at the office reception office has become an important transit station. Even if Joseph is not in the office all day, it will avoid missed calls. Of course, this is just a case of a small staff member like Joseph. If Lang goes out to do business, then as an assistant, Gary will record all the messages for his boss.
"Don't worry, the interview was just yesterday, and the news came today, it must not be that fast." Hugo was not too anxious, because he knew that the initiative for this time was not in his hands, nor in Robert's hands, but in Tom's hands. As long as Tom was willing to take over the script, the problem would be solved and nothing would be left.
Carl looked at Hugo and then looked at Joseph, "Don't you know Columbia Pictures is not going to use Tom Cruise?" This is also the reason why Carl was so anxious to mention this matter just now. Sure enough, this news immediately made Joseph and Hugo stunned. Carl realized that they had not received the news yet, "I went to the company in the morning and heard that Tom refused to shave his head and was unwilling to lower his pay, which led to Columbia Pictures planning to find a replacement. On the one hand, it was seeking a second plan, and on the other hand, it also put pressure on Tom."
Carl held the pizza in his hand and kept swallowing while smelling the fragrance, but he didn't dare to stuff the pizza into his mouth, because the three people in front of him looked at him with anticipation, so he quickly said, "This morning, news came that Tom toughly refused the request to cut his hair short. Because this would affect his image, the two sides broke down. I thought, Rob would make a decision in the afternoon. Didn't he hear that the crew would turn on the filming crew in ten days, and there was not much time left."
Daniel, the male protagonist in "Yihai Xiongfeng", is a navy. Although he is not a combat army that goes to sea to serve and does not require a flat head, it is still necessary to cut his hair short. Tom is now at the peak of his life. He has the capital to challenge the producers. Next, it depends on whether the producers can be tough to the end.
However, Hugo knew that in his memory, the producers compromised because Tom played "Yihai Xiongfeng" and still had a romantic hairstyle. However, it is unknown what changes will happen this time.
After saying this, Carl took a big bite of the pizza, and then a satisfied expression appeared on her face. Hugo looked at Carl's expression and couldn't help but smile, but Joseph frowned slightly and looked at Hugo worriedly.
Hugo smiled and comforted, "Don't be too anxious. Even if you have to make a decision, it's not possible to be so fast. Whether it's me or Brad, it's a difficult decision to replace Tom."
