Chapter 1179： Secret contest

Colin Mailer knew it was time to stop.

Because things have long been beyond control, if you don't stop, as Catherine Hepburn said, the second witch trial will happen. But this time the media is not so easy to escape the accusations-this time all the words accusing Hugo have no evidence.

Now, not only Hugo’s good friends, but Hugo’s former partners have stepped up to clarify the facts, and the connections behind the scenes have gradually begun to exert tension. Surprisingly, this time, the innovative artist brokerage company actually and the endeavour elite brokerage company. Joining forces-If you consider that the "seven deadly sins" are a collaborative project between the two companies' artists, it may be possible to explain. The huge media network has begun to gradually exert pressure, and the storm is quieting down bit by bit.

Just look at recent reports from major media. Newspapers headed by the "Los Angeles Times" and "New York Times" have finally spoken out: defending Hugo. Critical editorials led by the "New Yorker" and the "Washington Post" also began to join the discussion: once again condemning the media for violating the basic principle of "news truth."

All signs indicate that things have turned from overcast to clear. Quietly, Hugo's strong network has been formed, because Hugo has more and more economic stakeholders who maintain Hollywood, which also means that more and more people will stand on Hugo's side.

Times have changed, and Hugo is no longer what it used to be. To put it ugly, Hugo does have the capital to play big names; to put it nicely, Hugo is no longer a small actor with huge ups and downs in the negative journalism of the media.

The "New York Post" cannot withstand the second witch trial. Even if there are many other media at the bottom, the "New York Post" is no longer a target, but it is not something they can afford-because the result will be Worse than last time. What's more, the "New York Post" has benefited a lot from this incident, and there is no need for them to go their own way.

Therefore, Colin retreated early, even before Hugo was interviewed. The New York Post no longer followed up on follow-up reports. The cunning of a fox lies in its ability to grow its wisdom.

Not only Colin, but most of the media have also felt the pressure from all sides. There is public opinion, and there are big bosses behind it. Unknowingly, the whole big-name storm gradually subsided, and clarifications have been made one after another. As for the real end of the matter, we need to wait until the day when the "truth is revealed". Maybe after the "Seven Deadly Sins" is released, the crew will be impatient. Spit fast.

The face of the media will definitely be very interesting by then.

Relatively speaking, the "Seven Deadly Sins" crew seemed calm and calm because of Hugo's calmness and calmness. In fact, even when receiving interviews from three media outlets to respond positively to the big-name rumors, Hugo still had reservations. He still did not respond positively to the absence of the press conference for the opening ceremony, only responding with his consistent principle of "talking the truth". .

From beginning to end, Hugo has become a target to change the subject. Since people firmly locked their eyes on Hugo, Hugo simply locked his eyes on himself completely, letting the "seven deadly sins" hide behind him and quietly enter the shooting.

The filming of "Seven Deadly Sins" is indeed very smooth, and all aspects of the entire crew are progressing smoothly. In particular, David Fincher, as the director, is full of inspiration. After learning the lessons of "Alien 3", this new line The film company boldly delegated powers and allowed David to play freely, which made David particularly active on the crew.

As the actor, Brad Pitt's performance has also been praised by the crew. Even Hugo, he must objectively say, "Brad is really hard."

Hugo is the most mysterious unknown person in the whole movie. He only appeared for the first time almost halfway through the film, but when there was no shooting mission in the early stage, Hugo also appeared on the crew all day. Most of the time, he stayed alone in the corner. Once Andrew spotted Hugo talking to himself and walked up to talk to him, but he was scared to death by Hugo's dull expression.

The atmosphere created by David in the entire crew is of great help to Hugo's detailed understanding of the role of Anonymous. He is using his own methods to get into the play bit by bit. Even the chores outside the crew can't affect Hugo. He clearly knows how difficult the role of Anonymous is, and the slightest slack will make this role fall short.

This is really an irony. Everyone outside the crew is mocking Hugo for playing big cards and not being dedicated, but everyone in the crew can see Hugo's efforts for the crew.

Brad naturally saw Hugo’s efforts. This was a very wonderful process. He could see Hugo every day. He seemed to feel the slight changes in Hugo every day, but he couldn’t say one. So then, when he woke up, he suddenly realized that Hugo standing in front of him had become an anonymous person.

Brad realized that the changes he saw when he saw Hugo every day, it was as if Hugo took his momentum inward little by little. Originally, Hugo had a habit of wearing a shallow smile, wherever he walked, he looked like a sunny gentleman. It was easy to attract the attention of people next to him. Hugo is like a luminous stone, blooming no matter what. Light. But now, Hugo is gradually turning this temperament into restraint.

Brad was not sure what was wrong, maybe it was the look in his eyes, maybe it was a smile, maybe it was the way of standing or walking, maybe it was body language, but he could feel the change in Hugo. Obviously standing in front of Hugo is Hugo, but it is not Hugo.

Hugo is still smiling now, smiling and nodding to people all the time. The gentleman is polite. But now Hugo is like air. Even if he is standing in a corner not far away, no one will pay attention. Sometimes a large number of people stand together and chat. It takes a long time to suddenly realize that Hugo is there. ——Because Hugo stood there without saying a word, with a polite and polite smile on his face, but without any sense of existence.

This process is too magical and vivid. It is almost the whole process of Hugo's continuous polishing of his acting skills. There is a little change every day, which means that Hugo is making adjustments every day, and he is always looking for the most suitable performance rhythm. , The most suitable for the image characteristics of Anonymous.

Although Brad didn't want to admit it, he was really frightened by Hugo. Others say how Hugo forgets to sleep and forget food for acting, how to devote himself to it, or how to become crazy. Brad sounds like a lie and flattery. But after I have really experienced it, I know how much effort Hugo has put in to perform. The rumors can't convey the hardship and horror of the whole process at all.

In the face of tremendous pressure, either succumbed to retreat, or fought hard to explode. Brad chose the latter. Not only did he not feel decadent, but he was inspired by a stronger fighting spirit. He always knew that Hugo was not an easy opponent to deal with, and he had never been afraid.

So, compared to Hugo, who quietly polished his acting skills, Brad's image of a desperate Saburo spread slowly in the crew.

What is being filmed at this time is the second scene since Hugo entered the crew. They left Burbank’s studio and went to the streets of Los Angeles to close the streets for shooting, but this scene did not test Hugo’s acting skills. Many, because like the first scene, he needs to wear a trench coat and a hat to hide his entire face. At this time, it is not time to reveal his true identity.

In this scene, Mills played by Brad and Samose played by Morgan found the house of the Anonymous. This was originally just an inconspicuous clue. Mills didn’t believe that the character pointed to by this clue was the murderer, and Shamo Sai was also a little hesitant, but felt that "Since there is no other clue, it's okay to verify it." But they didn't expect that it was this clue that gave no hope to help them find the Anonymous.

The Anonymous didn't expect that they would find themselves so quickly, so they had no choice but to flee. Samose was left behind because he was too old to keep up, while Mills chased Anonymous all the way. This chase scene is being filmed now.

The biggest test of Hugo's acting skills in the chase scene is that Wuming's foot was injured. He didn't run smoothly, except that he just ran away in a panic. But the whole scene is very physically exhausting, because the chase scene is divided into three parts, the indoor chase upstairs and downstairs, then the chase on the street, and finally the game in a remote blind alley.

The indoor chase scene was filmed all morning I ran back and forth at least 30 times, and finally moved from indoors to the street. Because David wanted to create a gloomy and dark image tone, he set the plot in a rainy weather.

Hugo was the first to appear on the scene. He ran hurriedly in the bustling traffic, especially the water-filled streets, which caused a lot of trouble for Hugo. The experience of filming "speed of life and death" brought him a lot of trouble. A lot of experience came, but even so, Hugo still collided with a stunt vehicle that was about to shoot serial crashes. Fortunately, it was not a head-on collision, but a large layer of skin was worn. After running fourteen times back and forth, all parts of David were filmed in accordance with David's requirements.

Then came Brad's chasing scene. Since Hugo didn't use a substitute, Brad also refused the request of a substitute and went to battle in person. This is not only a contest of acting, but also a contest of momentum.

In the midst of David's "start shooting" shout, Brad rushed out toward the car array that was not turbulent, but the heavy rain caused by the sprinklers was so heavy that his sight was almost completely blocked, and Brad's feet slipped. , The whole person flew out, and at the same time a yellow car slid in front of him.

With a loud "bang", Brad and the car smashed into each other violently.
