Chapter 369 369

"Hugo Lancaster! I love you! I love you! Please marry me!"

This is an authentic man's voice, with some hoarseness in it, and the voice is shaking violently because he is too excited. This made Hugo stunned for a while, a little surprised, but more interesting.

In fact, for Hugo, the entire cultural atmosphere he came into contact with was dominated by the 21st century, and the acceptance of homosexuality in society was becoming more and more tolerant, including the legalization of gay marriage in many countries, Hollywood also because of "Brokeback Mountain" (Brokeback. Mountain)", "Milk" and other films entered the mainstream attention, which led to the gradual change of the concept of homosexuality, and a British version of "Sherlock (Sherlock)" relied on The relationship between Sherlock Holmes and Watson is full and popular all over the world.

Therefore, Hugo doesn't panic about something like this kind of man's confession, but he finds it more interesting. Especially when the object of the confession is himself, Hugo still finds it a little incredible. After all, this kind of thing is not something that anyone can do. encountered. Prior to this, Hugo met Gary Scott, Earl Nate and other openly out-of-the-closet staff members during the work process, and it was no fuss.

But Hugo saw the panic on Michael's face, and saw the anger of the director outside. Hugo immediately realized that this was in the early 1990s, and this was on a live radio program in the United States. Accidentally, this is a very bad situation. Obviously, this man was able to get through the phone and overcame the operator and director's hurdles, and successfully entered the live broadcast, which was beyond the expectations of the entire program team.

Now it is useless to cut off the phone temporarily. What you say is like water that has been poured out, and it is hard to get rid of the water, so Hugo became the calmest person in the whole scene, and replied with a smile, "Although I can't achieve your wish. , because after all, I only have one, if I promise you, I think the same desire will flood me, and I will break the law." Hugo blurred the focus, he did not pay attention to the "confession of a man", but It shifted the focus to "marriage", which subtly lightened the atmosphere, "but I still have to thank you for your support, after all, it's not easy to propose marriage, I can deeply feel your support. ."

Hugo's teasing calmed the panic inside and outside the recording room a little. The director originally wanted to cut off the phone forcefully, but now Hugo's approach is now more sensible, which also makes the director quiet for a while, but let the operator Screen out the next listener as soon as possible, wait for something a little wrong, and then switch the phone.

"But you have already accepted my confession in person, why don't you admit it now?" I thought the situation was under Hugo's control, but the man suddenly said something, which made everyone on the scene stunned. : What's going on here? Does Hugo also like men?

Now, the director didn't care about switching phones at all, and looked at Hugo dumbfoundedly. If there was a shocking news during the live broadcast of the radio today, then their show would be completely popular. At this time, the instant listening rate of the program showed a linear increase, and the speed of the increase was almost visible to the naked eye. In less than 30 seconds, the listening rate jumped to 18%, which is really terrible!

Hugo frowned slightly, not because of the other person's words, but because the voice was familiar, he always felt that he should know this person, "So you mean, we met, and, I know you? Right?"

"Yes, have you forgotten? It's really sad, but even if you don't remember, I still love you, I really really love you." The man's voice started to get excited again Getting up, unable to restrain his excitement, he shouted incoherently, "Your performance in 'Sleepless in Seattle' is really amazing, and you are the perfect companion in my heart!"

Hugo really felt that the voice was familiar, but he couldn't remember it. His memory in this area was really helpless. He couldn't help turning his head to look at Joseph who was standing outside. Obviously, Joseph's reaction was going to be much faster. He had already recognized who the caller was. He shouted "No problem, no problem" to the director, while looking for a pen and paper, and then wrote a few words on the paper. A letter, held up and shown to Hugo through the glass.

When Hugo saw the words on the paper, he frowned and thought about it, matching his name with his face. , right?" After finally remembering, Hugo burst into laughter and laughed softly.

Michael, who had not spoken for a while, finally found his voice, "So, Hugo, do you really know him?"

"Yes, I'm Earl! Hugo, it's so sad that you only remember me now." Earl Nate on the other end of the phone also deliberately made an aggrieved little girl gesture. The man's voice was really offensive, and it made people want to punch him in the face.

Hugo was more relaxed now, his smile widened. "Yeah, I know him. Earl, my colleague on 'Sleepless in Seattle'." Earl Nate," "Sleepless in Seattle" assistant cameraman, "Earl, you shouldn't have called in, the reporters will say we did it on purpose."

Hugo's ridicule made Michael couldn't help but burst into laughter. If the crew really deliberately hyped it up, then Earl would not have used such a shocking way. After all, accepting the same-sex confession is a good thing for a love movie. It's not the correct way of publicity. Hugo's ironic remarks really make people laugh.

"So, Earl, tell us what kind of person Hugo is." Michael took over the conversation. Since he was an acquaintance, he could just treat it as a prank. He could focus on the interview. Putting it on "Hugo under the screen" can also fit in with the topic of "Hugo's inconsistency" that was hyped by Uma not long ago. It was just a split-second decision that showed Michael's prowess as a talk show host.

Earl laughed, he really wanted to scare Hugo on purpose just now, but now that he has been exposed, there is no need to continue the prank, he knows where the scale is, "Hugo is a very good person. Attractive men, to be precise, are more attractive than the images you see on the big screen."

"Wow, a lot of listeners are getting excited in front of the radio now." Michael's tone finally relaxed, and Earl was willing to cooperate. This is really good news, and it also means that the show is back on track. "Can you tell me some details?"

"How long is your show?" Earl's astute answer made everyone in and out of the radio studio burst into laughter. "Actually, it's all very small details. I prefer to keep them as my personal secrets, because everyone will have different feelings in the process of contacting Hugo, but believe me, he is a guy worthy of everyone's love, although He hasn't called me for three months since he worked with Steven, but I would never say he's playing a big game."

Earl's wit made the atmosphere of the show go through the turbulent beginning, and finally recovered its original tone. The "same-sex confession" that originally made the entire show team feel like an enemy has become the best magic weapon to attract audiences. , which made all the listeners sitting in front of the radio burst into laughter.

"I still have a chance to ask questions, right?" Earl put the show back on track. "That's what I'm calling for, isn't it?"

"Of course, what's the problem with you, other than proposing marriage." Michael also teased with ease.

"In fact, I want to ask, Hugo, are you really not planning to release an album? You are really a very good singer." Earl also put aside his jokes and asked seriously.

"Good shot!" Michael's praise blurted out.

The smile on Hugo's face couldn't help but bloom, "If I can release an album, it will be a stressful thing, but at the same time I will also look forward to this happening. You know, although my job is to Actors, but singing is also my passion." Hugo still didn't mention Glory to the Dead, which is the same reason that the band didn't attend the premiere. They didn't want to rely on Hugo's reputation to promote it everywhere, but Hugo was the first It's also a huge improvement to have spoken out about his musical dreams in public once. "However, this kind of thing is not up to me to decide, let's see how the future develops."

"Thanks to Earl from San Francisco, let's move on to the next call." Michael continued to perform his host duties.

He was originally scheduled to answer only five calls, but because of the popularity of the hotline, Michael had to answer ten calls, extending Hugo's interview by half an hour. At the end of the show, Michael circled the question back to the album, "Hugo, what are your plans for the next period of work? Are you looking for a new script, or are you looking for some breakthroughs in music? ."

"I will choose to rest first." Hugo said with a smile, "I just finished filming for a few months, and the recent publicity work is also very tired, so I will give myself a vacation, and as for work, I will wait. I'll talk about it later, I'm not in a hurry for the time being."

"I'm afraid many people will be disappointed." Michael said on behalf of the tens of thousands of listeners in front of the radio, "Everyone has always expected you to show your musical talents, but there is always a lack of direct contact opportunities. , do you think this opportunity will come soon."

"I think before the opportunity comes, I should be prepared first, I will not release an album just to release an album, this is an irresponsible behavior. If one day I can stand on the stage of music, I hope That's professional, not an actor, just a Hugo of music."
