Chapter 207 207 New Year's Party

The fight between Hugo and Charlize stopped because of the sound at the door. Hugo pointed at the door, "Someone is knocking on the door, someone is."

Charlize looked at Hugo panting, and slowly released his hand, "Go open the door!" Hugo nodded and took a step towards the bathroom door. After realizing that Charlize had relaxed his vigilance, he took the hair dryer again. He swept towards Charlize, and then ran out with the hair dryer. He ran so hard that even the hand with the hair dryer was pulled down, and he also took down several bottles and cans next to him.

"Hugo!" Charlize shouted angrily, chasing after him, this Hugo is simply a child, not like a twenty-five-year-old man!

Hugo rushed to the gate in one breath, with a series of cheerful laughter overflowing from his mouth, and opened the gate with his free left hand. As soon as Uma opened the door, she saw Hugo with a bright smile on her face, and then Charlize, who was in a state of embarrassment, ran out. Uma looked back and forth between Hugo and Charlize, and finally fell on the rain. on the hairdryer in the hand.

"Hey, you're here." Hugo saw that it was Uma, with a gentler smile on his face, gave Uma a big hug, and put a kiss on Uma's cheek.

Uma walked into the house with a smile on her face, her eyes looked back and forth between Hugo and Charlize twice, and finally landed on Charlize, "Are you guys... playing games?" Any A woman would murmur in her heart when she saw such a scene, and Uma was no exception. She looked at Charlize's embarrassment seriously, and then her eyes fell on Charlize's expression.

I saw Charlize's footsteps stopped at the entrance of the corridor, originally looking at Hugo angrily, but after realizing that someone was coming, he took his anger back. After realizing that it was Uma, Charlize looked back, nodded politely at Uma, then looked at the embarrassment on her body rather depressedly, and finally glared at Hugo through gritted teeth.

Hugo laughed out loud and quickly explained, "No, Charlize is dyeing her hair, and the hair dryer can't blow at the back. I'm helping. Then, something went wrong, right?" The last sentence was asked by Charlize. .

Uma's eyes always stayed on Charlize. After getting confirmation from Charlize, she didn't find any abnormality between the two. He took it from Hugo, "Dyeing your hair, what would you do as a big man? If you can't do anything, it will be a disservice. Let me help Charlize."

Charlize naturally knew what Uma was thinking, and she didn't mind, she shook her head with a smile, "No, it's almost done, I can do it myself." Then she raised her hand and took the hair dryer in Uma's hand. "You come to Hugo, you can talk first, I'll finish it in a while."

After speaking, Charlize gave Hugo a fierce look again, "You're lucky, Uma saved you!" Charlize returned to the bathroom, closed the door, and could vaguely hear Uma and Hugo talking Conversation, "How about lunch today? Did you have any luck in the lottery?" Charlize then plugged the hairdryer back in, turned on the switch, and went back to coloring her hair.

Although Hugo expressed his dissatisfaction with the anniversary last time on "Oprah's Talk Show", this New Year is the first New Year's Eve after Hugo met Uma, so they decided to attend a New Year's Eve party together. , holding hands and counting down to the new year, may not be romantic enough, but it is the simplest happiness.

"Is there a waltz at the party tonight, or a disco ball?" Uma was worried about what to wear at night. If it was an evening dress, it seemed too grand, but a small dress seemed not enough. As for the T-shirt and jeans, it was simply not enough. out of consideration.

Hugo chuckled, "Why don't we just wear jeans, that's not bad. Seeing everyone else at the party dressed up like idiots, just the two of us in jeans, isn't it?"

Uma was amused and amused by Hugo's unrestrained thoughts, "Whoever said it's good, it's probably only you. There are many occasions for wanting to be independent. Today is the New Year's Eve party, what's wrong with being a little more grand. it is good."

Hugo immediately pouted, with a look of regret, which made Uma laugh non-stop, "Last time we went to the premiere together, we wore casual clothes, this time it's a formal party, wouldn't it be better to attend in full costume? ? lest all we have left in our memory are jeans."

In fact, Hugo really thinks jeans are good, because this is a New Year's party, not a formal prom or something. The point is that friends get together to celebrate the new year. But thinking about it carefully, Hugo also thinks what Uma said makes sense. Besides, this is also the first New Year after he crossed over, so it's better to be solemn. Although a little regretful, Hugo still nodded, "Okay, I will listen to you, I will nod if you let me wear a tuxedo."

"Tuxedo, hahaha..." Uma was amused by Hugo's exaggerated idea, "If this is a wedding, it's worth considering."

There was a sound of unlocking the door on the third floor. After the door was pushed open, Joseph's sturdy figure appeared in front of him. He immediately saw Hugo and Uma sitting on the sofa, raised his right hand and called Uma. After saying hello, he looked at Hugo, "The situation may have changed, tonight."

Hugo looked at Joseph ignorantly, "What?" He said without thinking, "The situation may change", who knows what happened.

Joseph sat down on the sofa next to him, glanced at Uma, hesitated and continued, "Remember what we said about Sidney today? I called Sidney for nearly three hours in a row. Phone, I finally got to talk to him." Hugo only felt a black line, it seems that Joseph has been busy with this matter since they came out of Rick's office, and Sidney's assistant did not directly unplug the phone line, Or turn off your cell phone, which is a miracle.

However, Joseph didn't feel anything wrong. In fact, the agent often needs to be stubborn and go out to win opportunities for his artists. Not even Long or Rick, they have to if they want to work with Steven Spielberg.

"Sidney invited you to the New Year's Eve party at his house tonight." Joseph didn't hesitate any longer and said the so-called "change".

"Tonight?" Hugo was quite surprised, "but we already promised Alex." Hugo didn't want to lose his trust.

Joseph expected Hugo to have such concerns, which is why he was not ecstatic when he heard the news, "Tonight's party is at Sidney's house, I'm guessing if it will be an audition. Even if not , we can also communicate with Sidney in person, which is a rare opportunity."

Uma, who was sitting next to her, heard the news of the party, and she naturally understood the ins and outs of the "sugar-coated trap", so she interrupted and said, "And going to Sidney's party, you can also meet many other people, that's all He's the best in the world."

In the entertainment industry, the importance of connections is almost decisive. How did the so-called fame opportunity come about? It's from the conversion of people. For example, "Twilight" heroine Kristen Stewart was chosen because she was offered a co-starring role in "Into. The. Wild" ” was recommended by his friend Emile. Hirsch, thus winning the opportunity to become famous overnight.

Therefore, it is difficult for Uma not to be moved. It was Sidney Pollack's New Year's Eve party, and maybe top directors such as Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg would appear. This is a fatal attraction for any actor.

The same is true for Hugo, but he can't just nod his head easily, because he agreed to Alex's invitation first, which is a promise, "How about you? Can you ask for one of Alex's?" Uma noticed Hugo's hesitation and suggested it a little eagerly.

Hugo shook his head, "If I tell Alex, he will definitely have no objection." After living together for so long, Hugo is naturally very clear about Alex's personality.

"Otherwise, let's go to Sidney's party first, then finish the conversation as soon as possible, and then come back to Alex's party." This time it was Joseph who gave his opinion.

Hugo frowned, "But when we go to Sidney's party, it's not up to us to say things. The initiative is still in Sidney's hands, isn't it? It's not that we can just leave. "If it's an audition, then it's naturally up to Sidney to decide, and Sidney, as the host, must be very busy at the party, how could it be possible to arrange the schedule according to Hugo.

"Then we can only try to see it?" Joseph also expressed his helplessness. He originally thought that things would at least wait until after the New Year, but who knew that the Sidney's house would hold a party tonight. Thinking of it this way, Ron's promise that Hugo could have dinner with Sidney doesn't make any sense at all, because everyone's going to Sidney's tonight.

Hugo thought about it carefully and nodded, "Okay, let's do it this way." One side is work, the other side is a friend, Hugo can only say sorry to Alex, the main thing is that he missed the work There won't be another chance. No matter whether the audition is successful in the end, at least Hugo wants to try once and give up without trying, which is not Hugo's style.

After Hugo made the decision, Joseph couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was also full of doubts and powerlessness about the audition of "Sugar Coated Trap", so he could only try his best to see it; while Uma was sitting next to him excitedly shaking He clenched his fists, placed a kiss on Hugo's cheek, and then asked, "Are you going to wear an evening dress tonight?" If so, Uma's worries just now were quickly resolved.

"Well, it should be, the evening dress looks a little more formal." Hugo thought for a while, nodded and said, then raised his voice in the direction of the bathroom and asked, "Charlize, did Alex bring a cell phone when he went out? ?" In any case, Hugo had to formally apologize to Alex.

"I guess yes, you can try it." Charlize's voice came from the bathroom.
