Chapter 1137： Fateful opponent

Brad Pitt, the newly emerging actor, relied on his excellent performances in "Interview with Vampires" and "The Years of Love", and almost rose to the frontline position in just three months—— Of course, this is the so-called "first line" that has no time to settle, just like the situation after Hugo relied on "Scenting Fragrance to Know Women" and "Yihai Xiongfeng" to win countless attention.

The media always like to compare Brad and Tom and Hugo together, mainly because there are too many similarities between them, such as their close age, such as the same outstanding appearance, such as a strong audience relationship, such as Choosing the trend of the work...This makes every competition between them full of topics.

However, although the media had discussed Hugo and Brad together before this, it was the showdown between "Pulp Fiction" and "Interview with Vampires" that really set off the topic of competition. Since then, the "Yuliang complex" between the three actors has been discussed endlessly by the audience.

But for the two parties, Hugo and Brad, things are a little special. Because of Tracy Jacobs, but not just because of Tracy Jacobs. Before the two people realized it, they were already on the opposite side, and then things happened one after another, and after many unexpected situations appeared, the two people were propelled either actively or passively, step by step. In a completely opposite position, he became a fateful opponent.

Martin Baum, the top agent in Hollywood, can be said to have planned a road to a superstar for Brad with his own power. This time, regardless of whether he chose the "seven deadly sins", He was selected by the "seven deadly sins", but it can be seen from his proactive initiative: he knows this is an important opportunity. So he made a decisive move!

At this time, Martin took Brad and was talking with David Cronenberg. Cronenberg, this is the most preferred director candidate for New Line Film Company, but he rejected New Line. So, David still showed up at the private dinner today, for what?

No matter what David’s purpose is, Martin’s goal is very clear: Obviously, David’s willingness to attend tonight’s dinner means that he still has a huge influence on the new line film company, regardless of the impact of casting. Still the influence of choosing a new director. A good deal with David will allow Martin to take the lead.

It wasn't just Martin thinking that at this time. In fact, Rick had just chatted briefly with David. It can be seen that Rick has the same idea. But at this time Rick was talking to the screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker. As an anonymous screenwriter, Andrew obviously has no influence on the new line, and his opinions are not accurate, so he was ignored by everyone. But Rick obviously has a different idea.

Brad's eyes were also projected over, and he made contact with Hugo and Tom in the air. It was not easy for him to ignore these two people, because almost everyone in the hall would pay more or less attention to Hugo. Let's have a look with Tom-no one knows in the recent "Mission Impossible" casting time circle, and everyone is curious about what will happen when Hugo and Tom meet.

It is estimated that there is no need to wait until tomorrow, for tonight the news that Hugo and Tom have a very happy conversation and that there is no separation will begin to circulate in the circle.

But Brad didn't have much expression. He just swept Hugo slightly from the corner of his eye, then slightly nodded his chin at Tom, and withdrew his gaze directly. But just such an action can be clearly felt. Brad's high morale and strong self-confidence, the provocation emanating from the depths of the soul can hardly be concealed. Obviously, this time, he is eager to be able to Victory in the duel with Hugo! Or even further, this time, he has absolute confidence in defeating Hugo!

After witnessing Tracy’s failure, Brad’s mood was very complicated. He didn’t know whether it was sadness, fear, anger, sympathy, disdain, rejection, or what, he didn’t even know how to define Tracy and his. Relationship, but he is very clear: he and Hugo are not friends, nor can they be friends, they are opponents, enemies, and rivals! He must defeat Hugo, he must defeat Hugo!

After "saying goodbye to the sentimental heaven", he was dormant for almost a year and devoted himself to work. Only he himself understood the hardship, bitterness and pain of the year, and only he could bear it. Because after experiencing Tracy's lesson, Brad clearly knows that in the face of absolute strength, all means are useless. In Hollywood, the so-called absolute strength is the success or failure of the work, even if the Jews of a wealthy country can not resist the law of interest, this is the essential rule.

Now, he has finally gained the ability to compete with Hugo, so he will not back down, he will prove himself, he will succeed, and he will use his strength to make a head-to-head decision with Hugo! "Seven Deadly Sins", this is the first beginning.

Brad glanced at Hugo contemptuously and swept past Tom covertly.

Maybe not now, but one day, the media's focus on the "Mission Impossible" casting process will appear on him. The media will be surprised that Hugo will compete with him for a role, or Tom will play with him. The duel of a character, the overwhelming news all revolved around him. At that time, not only the casting, including the suppression of "Pulp Fiction" during "Interview with the Vampire" and "The Years of Love" during the screenings, he will return to Hugo profitably, and let Hugo taste what he was. The taste of people's cynicism. Not now, but it will always come!

"I picked me... and..." Tom's words paused. He and Hugo saw Brad and Martin. They nodded as greetings. When Hugo turned his head again, Tom said hello. Then he said, "Of course, you are one of them. That's why you are here." Tom chuckled lightly.

Hugo twitched the corners of his mouth, but did not speak. The look in Brad's eyes just now made him feel very funny. In fact, he and Brad didn't have any personal grievances, but the two popular scenes were inherently wrong. This has been the case since the first meeting during the audition for "Dahe Love". It’s as if someone met at first sight and was destined to become friends; Hugo and Brad seemed to have the smell of gunpowder when they met for the first time. Although they didn’t talk much, they could even count with two hands, but every time they met Means competition.

Hugo suddenly remembered that he and Brad used to sit at the same table for the audition for "Yihai Xiongfeng". It seemed to be the only time in his memory that two people were sitting at the same table. But this time, the two of them appeared in the same space again, but for the audition of the "Seven Deadly Sins". This is really a very interesting thing.

"It seems that he regards you as the biggest competitor." Of course Tom has heard the rumors in the circle, but he did not mention that this is a friendship as a friend, but also a "good friend" and a "good friend" "The line between, Tom has always grasped this kind of measure very well.

Hugo curled his lips, "Competition will always exist, right?" The implication is that Hugo will not treat Brad as a specific opponent. In addition to Brad, there are other actors competing tonight. Hugo is not so arrogant, thinking that the final candidate must be between him and Brad. Of course, Hugo clearly knows what the historical trajectory is like in his mind.

Tom smiled and nodded, then raised the champagne in his hand, "I hope you can win." Hugo raised his eyebrows and looked at him slightly. Tom showed a triumphant smile, "In this way, your schedule is If it's not easy to arrange, then my victory will be more secure." The topic returned to "Mission Impossible".

Hugo laughed blankly, "I thought you were expecting a positive outcome."

"Of course." Tom shrugged, "but I don't mind some external help. After all, we are all in Hollywood, right?"

Hugo saw a figure hiding in the corner. He hesitated and apologized to Tom, "I saw a friend I wanted to meet. I went to say hello."

"Please." Tom gave way, "I think I should go and say hello to Cronenberg. Since I'm here, at least I have to be polite." This made Hugo chuckle again.

Hugo watched Tom walk towards David Cronenberg, and he saw Brad's expression become nervous, but Martin showed a warm smile. From this detail, we can see that Brad is still not sophisticated enough, but is much more mature than before.

People, sure enough, will grow.

Hugo retracted his gaze, walked towards the corner of the hall, smiled and said, "Good evening, are you David Fincher?" Hugo's tone was indeed full of doubts, because he was blind. Again, he was not sure that the middle-aged man with a clean face and no scum in front of him was David Fincher, which was a far cry from the image of a beard and scum in his impression.

The person in front of him did not immediately answer, his gaze fell into the distance, and Hugo followed his gaze and turned his head to look over, and it was Brad Pitt. Hugo could not help but sigh. He remembered that David Fincher and Brad had a very good friendship-in the future, the two will collaborate on a number of works, from "Seven Deadly Sins", "Fight Club" to "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" ".

But when Hugo was thinking about how to speak, he noticed that there was a sudden change in the expression of the man who was suspected of David Fincher before him. Hugo looked back and took a closer look. Only then did he discover that the man was not looking at Brahman. De, but looking at a woman curling up from the side: Gwyneth Paltrow.

Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly, and he felt that things seemed to start to become interesting, especially when he knew where things were going in the future.
