Chapter 1943: 1943 Seeing the Wind Again

Looking at the swimming pool in front of him, Hugo really had an urge to throw Leonardo directly to make him sober up, but in the end he still didn't do that, he just threw Leonardo in the On the sofa, watching him struggle twice with a painful face, and then fell asleep drowsily, Hugo was speechless for a while.

Toby then came in and explained the cause and effect of the matter—in fact, there is no cause and effect, that is, Leonardo met this group of new friends, and at the suggestion of one of them, they went to the "river" to hold a party together, As a result, a dispute arose over the issue of women, and it was Leonardo who took the initiative to provoke each other.

"So, you mean, that woman called... whatever it is called, the woman who instigated Leo to snatch others?" Hugo looked at Toby in front of him, his words were very calm, but Toby couldn't help but shrink back , and then nodded, "And it's the friend you met on the first day?" Toby nodded again, "So, you should know that it's Puff Daddy's territory, and almost everyone has a gun on them, right?"

Toby was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed drastically. The panic in his eyes had already given the most direct answer.

Hugo sighed softly, standing by the side but didn't know what to say, looked at Leonardo who had passed out, and then at Toby who looked embarrassed, "You wash up first Come on, the wound needs medicine, the paparazzi will definitely be chasing you these two days, be careful yourself, and stay here tonight."

Toby couldn't turn his head right now, he couldn't believe it, just now they had wandered around the gate of hell, just nodded in a daze, and then walked up to the second floor like ghosts.

After watching Toby leave, Hugo looked back at Fokkin and Henry who were standing aside, "So... Did Roger achieve his goal tonight? Wasn't it interrupted because of us?" Hugo also knew that EMI The plan is huge, and tonight is a very important part of it.

Henry shook his head, went to the sofa and sat down directly, twisted around to find the most comfortable position, and then said, "It doesn't matter, you know why Snoopy agreed to come out to see Roger tonight Is it?" Hugo didn't have time to answer, Fukin was about to leave, but Henry said, "Fukin, you stay too, this has something to do with the band."

Hugo and Fu Jin exchanged a puzzled look, obviously they didn't quite understand the meaning of these words.

After Henry's brief explanation, the two of them immediately understood. In fact, the east coast hip-hop camp has the idea of ​​establishing a music festival—they also hope that, like rock and roll, relying on the music festival to unite fans firmly, and truly let hip-hop integrate into the mainstream and enter life. This is business, but it is also a dream, because each of them knows that only when the entire hip-hop market rises, can more talents with hip-hop talent be able to make their debut-especially most of them are black, which affects the social status of black groups. Is bound to help.

"If I'm not mistaken, the west coast must have the same idea, otherwise Puff Daddy wouldn't be so easy to nod today. B.I.G's death has not been a year yet." Although Henry is a manager who is honored to death , but his grasp of the entire music circle is very sophisticated, and he can easily see the truth behind the scenes, "Although the West Bank is unwilling to admit it, the fact is that the East Bank is more organized and their ideas are more advanced, but they There is a bargaining chip, that is, the underground resources here are actually richer than those on the east coast. Especially you."

Henry didn't explain it completely, but both Hugo and Fokine could understand. Since the strong rise of Glory to Death, many underground musicians from all over North America have flocked to Los Angeles, Seattle and San Francisco. Especially the "Twisted Tour" has lasted for more than half a year, and its influence cannot be underestimated. All these make The West Bank has become the region with the richest underground music resources in the past two years.

"So you're saying that the resources of the band are the buffer zone in the middle," Fukin said.

Henry thought for a while, "It can be said this way, but I think you are a bridge connecting the East and West, which would be more appropriate. They need Hugo's influence, and Hugo's influence on large companies; they also need the band's influence." Influence, including the experience and resources of the 'Twisted Tour'. If I'm not mistaken, Snoopy should hope to join the 'Twisted Tour' and follow you to travel north and south."

Hugo didn't answer the call, although Hugo was also a part of the "Twisted Tour" and gave a lot of ideas and ideas, but the real work was done by the other four members of the band. Fu Jin pondered for a while, "But our tour is limited to rock and roll, which was agreed at the beginning of the establishment, and we signed an agreement with Vance."

Henry showed a lazy smile, "As long as interests are involved, any agreement can be torn up at any time, as long as there are greater interests. However, this is not the point. I think Snoopy and their intentions will be simpler , just as an opening guest, or as a special guest guest, to join the tour to increase influence. Recently, rap rock came out, they probably mean that, and it will not really affect the work of the 'twisted tour'."

Henry's words made Fu Jin nodded slightly, because the main body of the "Twisted Tour" was well-known or unknown underground bands, so there were no warm-up guests at all. If there are underground musicians of other music types who are willing to be opening guests, this is negotiable.

"But it's just my guess at the moment. Snoopy came here today just as a test, and revealed a little tone." Henry went on to say, "I don't think Roger has any thoughts about this for the time being, after all, music festivals are important for record companies. There are not many interests.” The music festival is more of a part of the tour, and there is no direct connection with the record company, and it is almost impossible for the record company to spend a lot of effort, long time, and high cost to plan a music festival. As with any label, "It's up to Snoopy to contact us individually."

However, if there is a cooperation between Snoopy and Glory to Death, and Puff Daddy does have ideas about the music festival as Henry predicted, then EMI Records as an intermediary is bound to be profitable—Roger All that needs to be done now is to weigh the benefits.

Fu Jin opened his mouth in surprise, and it took him a long time to squeeze out his own voice, "Since when has our position become so important?" As a member of Glory to Death, Fu Jin has never felt that The band already has the ability to call the wind and rain, but today it obviously feels that the level is different. He vaguely feels that he seems to be changing history.

Henry didn't answer either, but just looked at Hugo who was sitting next to him. Fu Jin understood in an instant that the "Twisted Tour" encountered many problems during the preparation stage, and most of the time they relied on Hugo's name to solve the problems. Since then, the band has gradually understood this truth. What's more, once Hugo becomes a member of DreamWorks, no one will forget that David Geffen's influence in the music industry is absolutely top-notch, even a level higher than the "outsider" Roger .

Hugo, who was watched by two people, looked innocent, "Hey, I didn't do anything well tonight, I didn't drink, I didn't punch, and I just dragged this dead body back. Don't worry about everything." Push it on me." This excuse was useless at all, Henry and Fokkin turned their heads directly, leaving Hugo aside - talking to the air.

"I'll go back tonight. You can talk to the other members of the band about this matter tomorrow and see what they think. In the next period of time, there must be a follow-up to this matter." Henry simply explained, and then He stood up, swayed slowly and walked out.

Fu Jin also stood up and patted Hugo on the shoulder, "I'm going to the guest room on the third floor." He drank alcohol today, and Henry drove the car when he came back, so he stayed here. That free posture, as if this is his home.

In a blink of an eye, Hugo was the only one left sitting there in the living room, and Leonardo's whispering voice came from beside him, making Hugo shake his head and smile wryly.

I don’t know what happened to Leonardo today. Although Leonardo also attended a lot of parties before, there were very few accidents. Most of the time, Leonardo was still a young man with ambitions and ambitions for acting. , so Leonardo actually didn't pay much attention to things like alcohol and fighting.

"Hugo..." Toby's voice came from behind, and when Hugo turned his head, he saw Toby walking down the stairs wiping his hair, "I know you still have a lot of questions, I think you should come down and have a look .”

"Are you sure you don't need to rest? I see you drank a lot tonight." Hugo watched Toby sit down opposite him, Toby shook his head, "I don't drink as much as Leo, I've been They are all relatively sober." Hugo nodded to express his understanding, but he didn't speak immediately, and he didn't know how to speak, and most importantly, he didn't know what he should ask. "Has Leo been like this lately?"

If it's just a small probability accident, there's no need to worry. But Hugo remembered that in the past month or so, every time he and Leonardo talked on the phone, the other end of the phone seemed a little irritable, hesitant to speak, which made Hugo feel a little ominous. However, at that time, Hugo had been devoting himself to the filming of "The Truman Show" and couldn't really spare time, so it was delayed.

Toby was stunned for a moment, which made Hugo realize that his first question had got to the point. Toby's expression drooped immediately, and he nodded, "Yes, it has been like this for the past two weeks..." Toby Bi looked at Hugo, opened his mouth, closed it again, then opened it again, hesitated to speak, and finally said, "It's getting worse and worse, I've lost control today."
