Chapter 1223 1223 New Home Party
Since Hugo moved today, he simply threw a new house party, with friends gathering at noon, and lively at night. Many friends came to express their congratulations.
This was the first time Hugo had a formal party since he entered Hollywood, and it was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for many to get close to Hugo. When a party is held in Vanity Fair, it is often just to release news, invite some people, and other people who are willing to attend the party will come uninvited. arrive. But that's the essence of the party: everyone partying together.
What's more, there are no "unfamiliar faces" for Hollywood, the circle is so big, and it is always possible to have a little relationship or get familiar with it. The party was naturally more lively, and many actors became friends after meeting at the party.
In the past, Hugo was unable to hold a party because of housing restrictions. Alex, the party animal, was obviously struggling. Now that he has his own living space, a party is absolutely imperative. But even so, Hugo felt the excitement and surprises of the party for the first time as the host.
The presence of Steven Spielberg and David Geffen was no surprise, but they brought George Lucas and Martin Scorsese together, which surprised Hugo. In particular, Martin, who Hugo has always wanted to see but never had the chance to see, is a huge surprise. Hugo felt honored and did not forget Leonardo DiCaprio. Hugo will not forget twenty-one After the century, Leonardo changed five agents in order to cooperate with Martin. It's just that I don't know that Leonardo has met through Hugo and Martin now, so will it change in the future?
The helm of Columbia Pictures, Mark Canton, and Paramount's strong woman Shirley Lansing were expected to appear together, but Ron Meyer actually appeared together, which made Hugo wonder what to do. described. But in fact, Lang is a smart person. Before that, he had spent a long time gradually reconciling his relationship with Rick. Today's attendance of Lang is only a congratulatory position, and a few words of courtesy with Hugo , didn't say much. The measure is very well grasped.
Paul Newman with his wife Joanna Woodward, Tim Robbins with his girlfriend Susan Sarandon, Tom Hanks with his wife Rita Wilson, these people are not uncommon , but Gregory Peck showed up with his wife Veronica Passani, which made Hugo overjoyed. You know, although Gregory lives in Beverly Hills, he has rarely attended parties or banquets, and it has never been easy to invite him to attend.
It is natural for Ali Emmanuel, Tom Strickler and others to appear, but when Hugo saw Roland Parkin actually appear, he was a little baffled, senior partner of Creative Artists Agency What are people here for? "I just came to congratulate as a friend, that's all." Roland's answer was obviously just polite, but Hugo could only respond with a smile.
The appearance of Sandra Bullock made Hugo very happy. Due to their busy work, they seldom had time to actually sit down and chat, but between work, they always contacted by phone. After Hugo played a big role in the "Seven Deadly Sins" press conference last time, Sandra gave Hugo support for the first time, although her agent did not want Sandra to "destroy the image"; it was released in April this year , "While. You. Were. Sleeping", which was a big hit at the box office. In fact, Sandra was very hesitant, and finally agreed to take the film under Hugo's persuasion.
"When was the last time we met?" Hugo gave Sandra a big hug.
Sandra gave Hugo a heavy kiss on the cheek, and didn't mind if she would be photographed secretly by the paparazzi, which made Hugo laugh, "Oscar night, you forgot? At that time, you tried to take me Pushed into the swimming pool, and I found out."
"God, I was really careless at that time, you are still holding revenge?" Hugo raised his hands to show his innocence.
Sandra smiled slyly, "Don't you know that revenge is one of a woman's innate skills?"
Hugo spread his hands helplessly, "That's why I'm always cautious when facing women." This made Sandra laugh, "Why did you come alone today, without a male companion?" Hugo looked around curiously. a moment.
"I haven't had a date recently. It's a very sad thing. You don't want to hurt me anymore." Sandra waved her hand with a heartless appearance, which made Hugo wonder whether to laugh or cry, "Yes. Now, where's your little girlfriend? Why didn't you see it?"
Cameron is eight years younger than Sandra, so Sandra is indeed a big sister. Every time she talks about Cameron, Sandra will sigh with a sad face, "All men are the same, always hope that their other half is under the age of 25."
"I thought you were filming in Louisiana, but I didn't expect you to show up, and Cameron wanted to know you for a long time." Hugo took Sandra to the room on the first floor, for today's party The smooth holding of the event, Cameron has been busy all the time. Although there is a professional party planner in charge, Cameron still looks like a hostess and shoulders the heavy responsibility of the party together with Alex.
"I have to be dignified, right?" Sandra straightened her hair and looked at Hugo's disapproving smile, but Sandra said solemnly, "Honey, you must know that women Women are always on guard, they will never believe that their men can have friendships with other women."
Hugo remembered the last four-person date, "Are you no exception?" Hugo looked at Sandra, and there was indeed no ambiguous relationship between them. ignorance, is a complete friend.
Sandra pursed her lips and said, "I'm a man." Hugo couldn't hold back and burst into laughter, but Sandra kept her face calm. After Hugo smiled, she continued to say To, "Yes, I am no exception. In love, I am a woman after all."
Sure enough, when Hugo then introduced Sandra to Cameron, the atmosphere always felt... too polite, so embarrassing, as if it was always like this when women get along, there was an indescribable subtle atmosphere that made People are overwhelmed. Seeing Sandra's serious appearance, Hugo couldn't help laughing helplessly.
However, when Sandra and Charlize met, the atmosphere was very good. Could it be because they had nothing to do with Hugo? Charlize also generously introduced Stuart-Townsend to Sandra, which made Sandra very envious. She was very sentimental about her singleness, which made everyone laugh.
Today was actually the first time that Charlize officially introduced Mr. Perfect to all his friends. Mr. Perfect also seemed a little nervous. He spoke much less than usual and was much more cautious. It can be seen that Mr. Perfect has been trying to impress Charlize's friends.
Hugo could sense that something was wrong with Charlize today, and seemed to have been avoiding eye contact with him, but Hugo felt that he was thinking too much. Tonight is also very important to Charlize, because the appearance of many big people-although they are all because of Hugo's face, it is helpful for her to show up more for her future career development, what's more, she still remembers her heart. Mr. Perfect.
Hugo suddenly thought of a possibility. Is it because Mr. Perfect's career has never opened up, so he has more expectations for tonight, but Charlize doesn't like Mr. Perfect's idea of using Hugo and using the party. , so the mood is somewhat contradictory?
Although this is not the idea that Mr. Perfect should appear, but from the standpoint of a man, Charlize has gradually found a position by relying on "before the sunrise", but Mr. Perfect still has no direction. This is for a relationship. It is indeed a destabilizing factor. Therefore, it is understandable that Mr. Perfect wants to seize the opportunity. What's more, he has not done anything wrong. Such a party is originally open to all opportunities, and there is no use of it at all.
Hugo didn't know whether his conjecture was right or not, and he didn't have time to communicate with Charlize tonight. He could only bury the doubt in the depths of his heart and focus on the party again.
"Have you heard? Richard Attenborough has a project, and I hope we can work together again." Sandra and Hugo stood in the small courtyard in front of the first floor with a cocktail, waiting for the barbecue Freshly released, she raised her voice and asked.
At this time, Sandra did not deliberately open the distance between Hugo and Hugo because of scruples about Cameron's thoughts.
Hugo knew what Sandra was talking about, "Love and War", which was also a project invested by New Line Films. He had heard Rick mention it before, and he had also heard a little about the twists and turns. "Well, I heard, what, are you interested?"
"I'd be interested if you star in it." Sandra is very frank, "Your vision for choosing scripts is always admirable. But, to be honest, if you can cooperate with Attenborough, this is definitely a Good chance, I'm really curious about the script."
Hugo shrugged, "I can't come to a conclusion without seeing the script. But objectively speaking, whether it's 'Gandhi' or 'Chaplin', it's not my type, it's too neat , too academic.” Both biopics were directed and produced by Richard, the former won Best Director and Best Picture Oscars, while the latter won Best Actor for Robert Downey Jr. Nominated, unfortunately not awarded.
Sandra nodded thoughtfully, "Fair enough." Then she didn't say more, and when she saw the barbecue was out, she immediately cheered, "Hey...hey! Little handsome guy! Grill those two pairs. Give me wings, give me!"
Hugo looked at Sandra, who didn't look like a lady at all, and couldn't help but smile.
