Chapter 1594: 1594

"Tell me the current progress, hurry up!" Sebastian. Espinoza walked into the conference room in a hurry. The chattering atmosphere in the conference room froze into ice in an instant. Tian frowned, scanned the room, and finally said, "Austin, start."

Austin. McCartney, who was named, was flustered and hesitated for a while. "Rick Rosen said that the time was full, and there was no schedule to accept our interview, and now the phone is no longer available. Even his first assistant Jim Snow's phone was always a hotline, and his second assistant was the only person we could get in touch with."

Sebastian just frowned and kept wandering back and forth in front of the conference table, "So, he knows we are 'People' Weekly, and still rejects us?" He was talking to himself, and the conference room in front of him was silent until he raised his head and glanced at Austin, who then nodded quickly in affirmation, "Go on, go on, I need to know how bad the situation is... "

Austin looked at his fellow editors for help. As the editor-in-chief of "People", Sebastian has never been a good person to get along with. It is possible that he will be put into the cold palace, and after three times, it is estimated that he will lose his job security.

But Austin can't do anything about today's problem. Now everyone is trying to contact Hugo and try to find an opportunity for an exclusive interview. Although the box office of "Independence Day" has not yet exceeded 500 million, it has actually crossed the 400 million threshold. The competition for invitations has already begun, and the influx of appointments has almost set the phone line of Endeavour Elite Brokerage on fire.

However, most of the top media at that time hoped to continue to wait and see. Although their reports have been constantly keeping up with the progress, and the crew interviews have been preempted countless times, but for Hugo's personal interviews, they still want to wait until "Independent" Do interviews when there is a real slowdown at the box office, because then they can be "the first media exclusive interview since Hugo made $500 million at the box office," a stunt worth at least $1 million or more .

In news, apart from the truth, the most important thing is timing, and the so-called timing is not simply the sooner the better, but the right timing. Sometimes it is also a compulsory course for journalists to wait for the right moment under the pressure of breaking news.

If "Independence Day" can break through the 500 million box office, this is the time. With the end of the summer season, the "Independence Day" stride toward 500 million is making strides every week, which also makes the competition between news media more and more fierce. An exclusive interview with Hugo has become a hot topic among the national and even global media. As Austin said, at present they can only contact Rick's second assistant, not only Rick, but the entire Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company. Popular.

"Independence Day" is the first work that has been packaged and cooperated since the establishment of Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company. As a result, it has achieved such a brilliant achievement. Its artists have risen, and in the competition with United Elite Brokerage Company, they have faintly occupied an absolute advantage.

Receiving Austin's cry for help, Jesse Cagle said, "As far as we know, the 'New York Times', 'Los Angeles Times' and 'Washington Post' have not made an appointment for an exclusive interview. Rick has always refused the interview request on the grounds that Hugo does not have time for now. However, it is rumored that only 'Time' Weekly and Rick have had an in-depth conversation, but there is no news about the success of the interview appointment. "

In this wave of fierce competition, the major media in the United States are competing fiercely. Even these top media must do their best to show their competitiveness. No one can make an exception, even the "Los Angeles" Times" as well.

Austin cast a thankful glance at Jesse, thanking Jesse for helping him clear the siege, but Jesse didn't have time to respond to Austin, because Sebastian looked over, "'Time'? Where did you get the news?"

If Time did get in touch with Rick, they couldn't have kept it a secret and celebrated with great fanfare. But if it's fake news, that's another story.

"'The Wall Street Journal'. But the source is also uncertain and needs to be verified again." Jesse's words made Sebastian nodded. If it was the "Wall Street Journal", it would be different. The media's network in the United States It's definitely not that simple.

Sebastian was silent for a while and thought, "Who has any good opinions? Quick, quick! We can't miss this exclusive interview with Hugo, absolutely not!"

Last year, "People" magazine took a different approach and awarded Brad Pitt the title of the world's sexiest man of the year. But at this time, Sebastian has some headaches, because Hugo is refreshing everyone's understanding with his terrifying performance again and again. If he chooses Hugo again, this has become the most suspenseful but also the least surprising. s answer.

This year, People Weekly hasn't figured out what to do, so they need an exclusive interview opportunity to reconnect with Hugo and show the magazine's wise perspective. This is very important for "characters".

After Sebastian growled, he looked at Jesse, "Who of you contacted Joseph Gibbs? Or Samora Casvey?"

"Joseph is not answering the phone at the moment, Samora answered the phone, but his answer is that Hugo is busy with work and has no time." Jesse also looked helpless. Obviously, Endeavour Elite Agency and Hugo reached an agreement. Consistent, with the same external caliber, put the news media on the bonfire and bake slowly.

Sebastian clenched his fists and slammed into the table top of the desk, startling everyone in the conference room, and then saw him grit his teeth fiercely, "No matter what method you use, the interview will It must be taken! Jesse, where the hell is Hugo now? Houston or Miami, rush over and visit! Don't come back if you don't see him!"

At this moment, the entire American news media is mobilized, and no one can make an exception, because everyone knows clearly that this is the moment to create history, and this is the moment to witness history! Such an exciting moment can easily mobilize every enthusiasm in everyone's body, making people crazy. The uncrowned kings who used to be incomparably aloof and incomparably proud have also lowered their noble heads at this moment, condescendingly joined this carnival, and have no hope of missing this feast.

Not only "People" Weekly, but "Time" Weekly's editorial department is also in chaos at this time.

Walter. Issacson was also frowning tightly at this time, supporting his chin with both hands and thinking, and then he heard someone next to him shouting "Walter, Walter", he just returned Looking up, he looked up and saw that more than 20 editors in the entire conference room were focusing on him, but Walter did not panic, but thought calmly, "No, we still can't miss this opportunity."

Walter came to the final conclusion, "Time" magazine is actively contacting Hugo recently, hoping to make Hugo the cover character for the next October, and accept the magazine's exclusive interview, but now there is no time for Hugo to make an appointment— —To be precise, Rick was also weighing the timing and refused to let go.

So, after Time magazine had used a roundabout policy and said it wanted to book an interview in November, they told Rick that Hugo was qualified enough to be nominated for this year's People. Of. The .Year) and hope to conduct a detailed interview.

The so-called Person of the Year, started in 1927, was initially outstanding for review, but it has gradually become a tradition in journalism and a habit of Americans, and has caused strong echoes in the world. Although known as the man of the year, the selected object can be a man, a woman, a couple, a group of people, a region, a machine or even a year. What matters is the most influential person in the past year, for better or for worse.

This selection by Time magazine far exceeds the entertainment effect of the major lists in People magazine. The Person of the Year is a selection of the top figures in various fields around the world, from Mahatma Gandhi to Deng. Small. Ping, from Adolf Hitler to Winston Churchill, from Hungarian freedom fighters to Martin Luther King, including "25 and under" in 1966, American women in 1975 , 1982 personal computer, is a selection with a distinct imprint of the times, and its importance plays a pivotal role on a global scale.

The fact that Hugo can become a candidate for the person of the year is enough to feel that Hugo plays a pivotal role in American society. It is difficult for Rick to say no to Walter's trump card, not to mention that this is an interview scheduled for November. So Rick did not refuse for the time being. That's why Time had a long call with Rick—apparently competitors, including People, were getting the news that Walter was sending a smoke bomb.

But after thinking about it, Walter still believes that they should not miss this opportunity, "This is a revolution that belongs to the film industry, we can't miss it." Walter's brain was running fast, and then he suddenly stood up, "Help me I'll check, Hugo's manager, where the hell is Joseph Gibbs, I'm going to visit him in person!"

With Walter's order, the editorial department of the entire "Time" magazine was busy, and people turned around. However, such a scene is not uncommon at all. Similar scenes can be seen in the editorial offices of large and small media in the United States. The uncrowned kings are boiling again, and everyone focuses their attention on the palm-sized place in Hollywood. Even The presidential election that has entered the sprint stage has been temporarily ignored by people-even if it is only temporarily, the surging upsurge can still be felt, and this summer, it seems that it is not over yet.
