Chapter 1511 1511 Find the Original Intention
Looking at Pedro in front of him, Hugo couldn't bear it. He knew what Pedro and Alfonso had gone through, because it was not just them, not just himself, including everyone in Hollywood, are experiencing.
Hugo himself knew that confusion and struggle so well, didn't he? Almost every day since the Golden Raspberry Award, he has been persuading himself to be firm and facing temptation every day. Confused and challenged, I experience countless confusion and confusion every day. The night after Oscar ended, he almost seemed to have fallen into a black hole, and all the daze easily swallowed him, which is why he has been walking on the road for the past month - this can make him feel My own existence is so real and so clear.
In fact, everyone understands the truth, but not everything can develop according to its own set direction. More often, people cannot control their emotions and mentality, because robots that can perfectly follow the program design are executed, not flesh and blood. body.
There was no way he could blame Pedro and Alfonso because deep down he knew the reasons for things were never that simple and he had to take some of the blame. Likewise, he can't just block them just because of one of their mistakes, right?
Even so, Hugo still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. He could only close his eyes in embarrassment and turned his head away. He couldn't face Pedro like this, nor could he face his other teammates. . Hugo knew that this was wrong and that escaping would not solve the problem, but he cowardly chose to escape.
The firelight cast on Hugo's face, casting a thin shadow on the deep facial features, and Neil could clearly see the pain and struggle between Hugo's eyebrows in the shadow, which made Neil clearly. He clenched his fists involuntarily. Although it is said that Alfonso and Pedro's problems are very serious, people have to face them, but the four of them have forgotten that Hugo is the one who really shoulders the heavy responsibility. They have always been by Hugo's side and witnessed the The hardships and pains of every step of Hugo.
Once upon a time, they were Hugo's most important partners and became Hugo's backup force, supporting Hugo's continuous progress. But now, the four of them have betrayed Hugo's trust and even hurt their backs, which is the most deadly for Hugo. An "apology" is not difficult; but repairing trust is difficult.
"Hugo, do you remember the first time I met you?" Neil said, breaking the silence in the night, Hugo raised his head blankly and cast his eyes, "I knew you definitely wouldn't remember. Well, it was on Hollywood Boulevard, you and Charlize were performing on the street, I didn't know you at all, just because you sang the song 'Home', I was directly amazed, so I took the initiative to join I introduced myself before."
Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly and lightly nodded his chin, but did not speak. Neil didn't care, and continued, "Actually, I was thinking, where the hell is this guy from? If there is a chance to work with him, it will definitely be a very magical thing. I was a fanatic at the time. I really want to do something musically, and hopefully get people to listen to the music I make.”
"But after I really got into this business, I realized that things are not that simple." Neil shrugged, "but it made me more and more determined: I love music."
"In the beginning, Hugo was just the unknown actor downstairs to me," Fu Jincai said, making everyone chuckle, "I was focusing on my band, you know, the new One day, I used to think I would go all the way to the end with them—I mean, someday I don’t want to make music anymore.” But there was always a sense of sarcasm in Fukkin’s hard words, which made the corners of his mouth hold back. He kept going up, "I didn't realize that I would end up with you guys, you know, an unreliable vase actor, a self-taught amateur guitarist, a bass player who can't even step on the rhythm. ,and also……"
Fujin looked at Alfonso contemptuously, and then pouted, but Alfonso took over the conversation and admitted, "A car dealer." This made Fujin chuckle.
"Actually, I was very hesitant before joining Glory to Death, because I didn't know any of you." Fu Jin said honestly, "I don't know your strength, nor your style. I really moved Mine, or your music, or Hugo's. 'Don't. Look. Back. In. Anger'. You'll never know, when I hear this How shocking it was when I sang, I almost boiled over."
"But this is not a song that makes people boil." It was Hugo who spoke, and he saw the familiar enthusiasm in Fu Jin's eyes, which made Hugo feel incomparably cordial.
"Yes, this is the reason, the reason why I desperately want to join you." Fu Jin was rarely excited, his voice was shaking slightly, "You know, in the music, I can hear that This kind of resonance for music fanaticism, that kind of excitement that makes me desperate, that kind of madness that burns all the enthusiasm and releases it completely, this is the soul of the band. This enthusiasm is also the reason why the five of us come together.”
Looking at Fujin, whose eyes were shining brightly in front of him, Hugo's heart couldn't help but start to surging. This is the core idea that unites Glory to Death, and this is also the driving force for Glory to Death to keep moving forward.
From the day of the composition of Glory to Death, in fact, they knew clearly that their own pace of progress meant breaking one obstacle and one bottleneck after another, because they did not intend to be mediocre from the very beginning, they hoped to inject rock with their own music Soul, so they lead the new metal rock to the top; they want to use their music to party with all rock lovers, so they confront Nirvana on the "four two stage", so they set off a rock craze at the Grammys ; they want to inspire people with their music - people who have dreams like them, so they create classic after classic...
The way forward for the new metal rock has never been smooth, they need to break the stereotypes of the old diehards, they need to break the shackles of the pop market, they need to fight the wave of grunge, they need to stick to their own spirit... From the very beginning of the road From the tour to "Almost Famous", from the "Road to Glory" tour to "Bathing the Morning Light", on the way to glory to death, almost every footprint is against itself, against the mainstream, against history, and they are so So determined, so united, so focused to get to where we are today.
Perhaps, their confusion is inevitable, because this is another obstacle to the way forward for the new metal rock, or, this is the next obstacle to the progress of glory to death. Hugo's bottleneck, Alfonso's distraction, Pedro's emptiness, Neil's doubts, Fokine's predicament... This is the obstacle of death to glory, and if they can break this obstacle, it will usher in A brand new world, if not, they will withdraw from the stage of history like countless rock bands streaking across the sky like shooting stars.
Just like the problems Hugo had during "The Seven Deadly Sins" and "Death Ramble".
Hugo shouldn't be too harsh, to Alfonso and Pedro, to the band, and to himself, he shouldn't pick up the yoke himself, it shouldn't be a matter of trust, because they never really After being separated, they have always stood on the road of their musical dreams and never left. This should be a question of breaking through oneself and breaking the shackles, and if you want to cross this big hurdle, you cannot achieve it by relying on your personal ability, because this is a band, a band of five members, not exclusive to any one. A one-man band, they need to unite, they need to hold each other's shoulders and move forward hand in hand.
Perhaps this is the reason why Hugo has never been able to break through the bottleneck. With his own strength, the thin layer of window paper can never be pierced. He is Hugo, just Hugo, but on the road of music, he should be Hugo to the death of glory. This is the foundation of Glory to Death at the beginning of its establishment, and it is also the key to Glory to Death.
Hugo raised his head and looked at Alfonso seriously for the first time. At this time, Alfonso also looked at Hugo calmly without any dodging. Thinking back to the scene of Alfonso describing their first meeting just now, as well as Alfonso's mental journey after hearing Hugo's invitation, Hugo knew that the one who fearlessly abandoned his normal job for the sake of music joined a new band. Alfonso is still here.
Pedro in front of him was describing the scene when he and Hugo met for the first time, "At that time I thought he was a cunning businessman on Wall Street who didn't know anything about music." Pedro looked thin. Many, the whole body seems to be a size smaller, but his face is very ruddy, with the familiar healthy eyes, those translucent eyes flashing with excitement and excitement. This was the Pedro he was familiar with.
In Pedro's eyes, Hugo could see the soul who once fought side by side, familiar and kind. Hugo recalled that he had just completed the ring. During the years of drug addiction, the pain caused by the withdrawal reaction almost drowned him, quit. Poison requires the willpower of the client, which is the decisive factor, but also requires the help of friends. That's why a detox partner must exist, and science has proven it.
Hugo didn't know whether Pedro would relapse. No one knew, including Pedro himself, but their partners needed to be Pedro's backing so that Pedro would not relapse. "We're friends, aren't we?" Pedro's words echoed in Hugo's mind.
