Chapter 2143 2143 Interesting proposal
Rick did have several projects to let Hugo read today, but after looking around, he realized that he had forgotten his briefcase in the car and had to run out temporarily, making Hugo laugh out loudly. Rick, who is usually smart and wise, actually lost all the time. This is really funny.
After a while, Rick ran back panting and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a embarrassed look on his face. "I have been so busy that I can't remember things in the past two days." Rick put the briefcase next to him, and took out the things from it, while continuing to ask, "'Beautiful Mind' is about to be released. Steven felt that this work has hope to hit the Oscars, and may even hit your third actor, Little Golden Man, but... you know..."
Although Rick didn't continue to say it, Hugo immediately understood.
At present, Hugo has won four Little Golden Man in total. In terms of the year of the movie release, they are the Best Supporting Actor in 1993, Best Actor in 1995, Best Original Screenplay in 1997, and Best Actor in 1998. In short, Hugo won four Little Golden Man in five years, and the winning frequency is too intensive.
Why are there so few artists in history who have won Oscars and Gold Man? First, it is because it is too difficult to contribute classic works for two consecutive years and three consecutive years; second, it is because the industry's unspoken rules cannot be used to win all awards by one person, which requires balance.
In the entire Oscar history, only nine people achieved success in all the awards. Tom Hanks won the Best Supporting Actor Award in 1993 and 1994, Spencer Qusey won the Best Supporting Actor Award in 1937 and 1938, and Jason Robards won the Best Supporting Actor Award for two consecutive years in 1976 and 1977.
Louis Reiner (Rainer) won the title of Best Actress in 1937 and 1938 respectively, while Catherine Hepburn completed the Best Actress in 1967 and 1968.
Federico Fellini won the Best Foreign Language Film Award in 1956 and 1957, and Ingmar.bergman also won the Best Foreign Language Film Award in 1960 and 1961. In addition, John Ford won the Best Director Award in 1940 and 1941 for two consecutive years; Joseph L Mankevic also won the Best Director Award in 1949 and 1950.
In the seventy-year history of the Oscars, more than 200 Little Golden Men were awarded, but only this has made such a feat for me. It is worth mentioning that most of them were in the early days of the Oscars. Except for Tom Hanks who achieved this feat in the 1990s, all other winners were completed before the 1970s.
It can be seen that with the increasing opening of the Oscars, the entries are becoming more and more extensive and the competition is becoming more and more fierce. The film markets are truly showing a pattern of blooming all regions, and it is even more incredible to complete the winning of the new year. In addition to real Oscar darlings such as Catherine Hepburn, Meryl Streep, Emma Thompson, and Malone Brando, it is too difficult to win consecutive awards in just five or ten years.
There are also "guilty votes", "compensation votes", "commendation votes" and other theories above the Oscars. Simply put, Hugo has won four Little Golden Man in the past five years, and has reached the height of unprecedented success. Even the "Oscar darling" is not enough to describe his achievements. If he continues to win the award, what should other actors do? What should they do if the American Actors Union registers more than 200,000 members? Do other actors still continue to act? Do they still have the qualifications to compete for Little Golden Man? Are there more suspense in the Oscars that people are looking forward to?
Just like after the second decade of the 21st century, the Weinstein brothers' monopoly on the Oscars triggered a frenzy of Hollywood opposing them. If Hugo continues to win awards, it is estimated that all Hollywood industry insiders will join forces to oppose Hugo.
Therefore, if Hugo wants to use the "Beautiful Heart" to once again achieve the title of Best Actor, this will not only be the fourth acting trophy in six years, but also the third actor in film history to win the title of Best Actor, which is as difficult as the sky; then Steven and Rick both believe that Hugo must join the ranks of public relations in the academy, establish good relations with the academy members, or even please the academy members, and promote this historic moment.
In other words, during the awards season, Hugo must appear frequently to cooperate with publicity and public relations.
Hugo was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Rick, you haven't even seen the finished product now. Isn't it too early to just talk about these things?"
Faced with Hugo's teasing, Rick shook his head and said simply, "No."
Hugo looked carefully and found that Rick was telling the truth, which made him choke. He couldn't help but think seriously, "To be honest, I personally think that winning the award is a good thing, not a bad thing." After experiencing the ups and downs of the actor's career, Hugo's mentality has completely calmed down. He has created a history that ordinary people cannot imagine. There is no need to be too greedy. Even if he adjusts his normal mind, he still realizes his dream. "What's more, in the next period of time, I don't think I have time to attend those parties."
Rick immediately understood what Hugo meant that he would not participate in the awards season college public relations activities, and everything would go with the flow. In fact, he still felt a little regretful inside, but he also knew that what Hugo said was correct and people should not be too greedy. Rick let out a long sigh, "Okay, I understand."
Then, Rick handed the document in his hand to Hugo, "You can simply search through it to see if there is anyone you are interested in. If there is, I will ask Samora to bring you, if there is no..." Then Hugo took over the conversation, "You can use me as a shield to reject them all." Rick couldn't help laughing and nodded, "Your name is better than mine. If it were me, I would probably be scolded to death, but you are different."
Hugo picked up the coffee and took a big sip, and flipped it around casually.
Objectively speaking, the scripts that can be handed over to Hugo must be unique scripts, and may not be big investments and productions, but there are definitely many highlights that can be found. With Hugo's current status, it is no exaggeration to say that as long as he is willing to nod, there will be no scripts that he cannot receive.
Therefore, Hugo saw many familiar works in his hands, which are worth considering.
Warner Bros. handed over two scripts, "Eleven" and "Training Day", both works are very topical, especially the latter, which is also one of Hugo's favorite works. In the movie, Denzel Washington contributed an amazing performance.
Disney won an ambitious work, "Pearl Harbor". This work is also an attempt to align with the blockbuster era. Although this has become an important turning point in the decline of Michael Bay's career, the sensation and topics created when it was released that year should not be underestimated.
The real historical event of "Black Hawk.down" collaborating with Sony Columbia Pictures and Ridley Scott was brought to the big screen and attracted much attention during the preparation period. Unexpectedly, the script actually came to Hugo. This work is definitely not inferior to "Save Private Ryan" in the rendering and creating war scenes, but the exploration of the core ideas is a bit lacking.
Twentieth Century Fox put the script of "Mold Rouge" at Rick's desk, which is also a brilliant work for the re-song of the musical and dance film; the most interesting thing is that Universal Pictures actually handed over the project "Fast and Furious (the.fast.and.the.fu)", but it was not to invite Hugo to star, but to hope that Hugo would be the producer, hoping to make this movie a masterpiece similar to "the speed of life and death".
In addition, there are several original novel projects mixed in. Obviously, I hope Hugo can adapt.
After a brief look, Hugo couldn't help but chuckled, "Everyone treats me as a superman." This is how Hollywood is. After a person became popular, almost all characters and scripts flocked to it, hoping to squeeze out all the surplus value of this person. When that day comes, the speed of people leaving can even be described as the speed of light, making people fall directly into the bottomless abyss.
Looking at the project in hand, it is obviously like this. No matter what role or subject matter, as long as it is a little feasible, I will push it all over Hugo, hoping to follow this money tree and make a big profit. But the fact is that even if Hugo challenges comedy and horror movies, he is still not omnipotent.
For example, "Moldo Rouge", Hugo is actually completely unsuitable. Although he is a singer, he knows nothing about dance and his research on opera is approaching zero. For example, "Pearl Harbor", with Michael Bay's personality, explosion is the protagonist of the movie. The actors are just a pairing of needles and threads, and there is no need to be played by Hugo.
Rick also smiled, "You should look at the scripts on my desk. Our daily entertainment program is to see how outrageous the projects sent are."
Hugo was also amused. He briefly looked through these projects, and in the end he pushed all the projects to Rick, including his very excited "Training Day". Because Hugo knew that part of the reason for the great success of this movie was that it involved race issues. Denzel Washington's black advantage was irreplaceable. Therefore, these projects, as a whole, could not impress Hugo.
Rick didn't mind. Now, even if Hugo is one movie a year or even one movie every two years, there is absolutely no problem. He doesn't have to worry at all, so he simply put away all the projects and said in a chat, "When he was having dinner with Barry yesterday, he said, are you interested in playing a guest role in "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone."
