The air cooled by the air conditioner in the VIP private room settled down all the heat. Looking out through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, you can see the still surging people on the scene. The heat was blocked by a glass, forming two worlds. This feeling was wonderful. There was a heat wave in your sight, but the skin was too cold and there were goose bumps, as if winter and summer were present at the same time across the glass.

But Hugo doesn't like it. He still hopes to watch the football with the fans on the spot, sweat, shout and go crazy together.

However, at this time, Hugo had no time to think about this matter, nor did he have time to tell Mark, "I'm ready to leave", because the appearance of Luc Besson disrupted Hugo's rhythm.

When people mention French directors, they may not know how to make a choice because there are too many candidates. France, known as the back garden of art films, has born countless great directors, Robert Bresson, Jean-Luc Godard, Jean-Renoir, Henry George Cruzzo, Alan Resnais, Francois Truffaut... Every director can occupy a place in the history of films.

French films have a strong influence in the long history of global films. France is one of the earliest birthplaces of films. Whether it is the early avant-garde or the later new waves, they have had a significant impact on films around the world. They are now also the country with the most art theaters in the world.

Among these directors, Luc Besson's international influence is definitely among the top five French directors.

In fact, Luc is the most popular and controversial director in the eyes of professional film critics in France, and many film critics do not like him. Because Luc's works such as "the.fifth.element" and "Joan Arc (the.mes color: the.story.of.joan.of.arc)" have achieved great success in box office, but their artistic nature has been criticized and is regarded as the negative example of surrendering to Hollywood movies in France. Although Luc's works always attract countless attention internationally, it is difficult to find a consensual person in France, which also forced Luc to travel across the ocean to Hollywood to find a soulmate.

Therefore, Luc became an alien among French directors. He had a huge international influence but did not receive support in France. Among the great directors in the eyes of major French film critics, Luc was difficult to rank among the top 30; but in the international market, among the most famous directors in France, Luc can often be seen in the top ten. Flowers bloom inside the wall and fragrance outside the wall are typical examples of this.

When Luke first debuted, he insisted that he only made ten movies in his life, and that he pursued not quantity but quality. Although Luke later broke his oath that had lasted for nearly thirty years, it is undeniable that his works are still not many, and most of them are fine, from the earliest famous film industry, "le.grand.bleu" and "nikita" to "nikita" that made him famous in history, and it can be regarded as a masterpiece of every part of the film industry.

In Hugo's eyes, this director, one of the most controversial directors in the history of French films, is a sloppy uncle with a slightly fat, beard and a bit sloppy. But in fact, Luc is only eight years older than Hugo, and is not yet forty, but he looks at least fifty years old.

When he saw Luc, Hugo's first reaction was accident, and the second reaction was surprise. Then he looked at the uncle and walked up with a lewd smile. Mark took the initiative to introduce the two people, "Hugo, this is Luc Besson, the director from France; Luc, this is Hugo."

It is worth noting that Mark actually deliberately emphasized Luc's identity as director, but did not indicate Hugo's identity. This shows that Luc knew Hugo, and he wanted Hugo to know that Luc was the director. But why? Is it because Luc is going to work with Columbia Pictures to collaborate on films and hopes that Hugo will play the leading role?

This is too unreliable. Because "This Killer is Not Cold" was a work in 1994. Although Hugo doesn't remember the release date, 1994 was already halfway through and now it must have been filmed. And Luc's next work seems to be a few years later, because Hugo remembers that after "This Killer is Not Cold" became famous internationally, Luc disappeared and focused on preparing for the next work.

"I've watched the 'Speed ​​Speed ​​of Life and Death', it's such a wonderful movie." Luke's smiling eyes always had a hint of the cunning uncle's, which made Hugo really want to laugh.

Hugo knew that Luc always had a special obsession with the element of "women". Not to mention the dark history of his five marriages, just saying that the protagonists of all his movies must have a special woman, either a gun-holding girl or a girl-like woman. Their delicate appearance and gun violence are an important part of his film aesthetics, which is perfectly interpreted in "This killer is not too cold" and "Nikita".

But the problem is that he is a man, and Luc is really ridiculous when he looks at himself with this look. In addition, Luc's English with a strong accent makes him even more funny.

"I have always wanted to shoot a racing movie. You know, speed, speed, speed, surging with infinite passion, and an adrenaline explosion..." Luke said with a smile without realizing the deep meaning of Hugo's smile.

Hugo pointed his chin hard, "I believe, absolutely! Taxi Express" series was produced by Luc. This series of movies with taxi racing as the core is one of the most successful movies in French film history.

Hugo and Luc were talking here, but Joseph talked to Mark. There were not only Mark and Luc in the VIP box, but there were a group of people. However, they just greeted Hugo and did not have any further conversations. Mark led Joseph away. Obviously, they intended to let Hugo and Luc communicate.

Hugo noticed Joseph's small movements and gradually understood them. He suddenly began to wonder what they were planning today.

Luc talked a lot about racing with a smile, but this wasn't Hugo's strength, so most of the time Luc was talking about it and Hugo was cooperating. Luc was also a talented person, and he soon noticed this situation. After a change of the subject, he actually arrived on the "Road of Glory". "I heard that your band's tour just ended yesterday."

"Wow, our tour is so powerful? All the practitioners in the film circle are paying attention?" Hugo suddenly remembered that Mark called Henry, not Rick, is there any connection here?

Hugo's slightly exaggerated words made Luc laugh, "Yes, in fact, one of our crew members admired your concert in Seattle, and after coming back, they praised it, which attracted my attention. You know, an actor is also an excellent singer, and this is not unusual, but it does not happen very often."

"I know that people who are not doing their jobs are always easy to attract attention." Hugo's self-deprecating expression made Luke laugh again.

"No, I don't think so." Luc shook his head. "In fact, I heard that your band is excellent, and is one of the best bands in the United States right now."

"Shh, I don't want to be unable to leave this stadium." Hugo whispered quickly, the subtext saying that if other rock fans heard it, he would probably be torn apart. He used a sarcastic way to express modesty, and this time even the others standing next to chat chuckled.

Seeing that the atmosphere was mature, Luke continued to speak, "What is the song you performed during the Encore concert in Seattle? That song is really wonderful." After Luke said this, he did not get a response from Hugo as soon as possible, because Hugo frowned slightly and looked at Luke with interest.

Luke simply spread out all the following words, "This is the situation. I just finished filming a movie, and the post-production has come to an end, but now there is a theme song. We have heard the song of your band in Seattle, which will definitely be very suitable, so I want to ask if you would like to use this song as the theme song of our movie."

Hugo glanced at Luc, then looked at Mark again. Mark still had a smile on his face, as if he knew nothing, but it was obvious that things had become clear.

The movie that Luc Besson just completed will be released in the United States and is likely to be released by Columbia Pictures. Luc thinks the songs that are glorious to death are suitable as the theme song of the movie, and Mark just hopes to get a distance from Hugo. Maybe they were planning other more suitable occasions, but they didn't want to meet them by chance today at the Rose Bowl Stadium, so they simply invited Hugo to the VIP box and kill two birds with one stone.

"So, have you heard our songs?" Hugo did not agree in a hurry, because the situation was actually a little confused. Luke just now clearly said that a staff member attended the Seattle concert and the sound source has not been leaked. So how did Luke know that the song is suitable?

Luke smiled and nodded, "Yes, in fact, after our staff heard this song, they talked to Eric Sera (E-Ji C. Serra), who was in charge of the original music. We contacted Edai Records and got the audition master."

So that's it. But things are definitely not that simple. They finished the talk in a few words. The easiest thing is why they skipped Henry and directly contacted EMI Records, or EMI Records handed over the master belt to each other but did not mention it with Henry. There are many twists and turns in it.
