Chapter 747 747 Recording the Moment
Nicholas-Macron recorded the moment in front of him with the camera in his hand. Hugo and Tracy stood parallel on the red carpet. The two looked at each other. Tracy's gaze was arrogant and provocative, and she raised her chin slightly. He seemed to be saying, "This is the time of your death"; Hugo's smile was calm and calm, and his amber eyes showed a touch of red, but he didn't know if it was Tracy's skirt or the sunset in the sky, deep His eyes clearly depict his firmness and sunshine.
Behind the two people, the surging crowd is surging, as if a huge black wave will engulf the entire red channel at any time, and the excited and distorted faces have become impression symbols; red carpet Not far away, there are other actors who are being interviewed by reporters, some actors are communicating with fans, and some actors stop and turn their heads, but the faces of these people have become blurred and become decorations on the red carpet.
The raging wind lifted Tracy's skirt high, and the dazzling red color showed off the aura of this Hollywood's top female producer; while Hugo stood tall and straight in the desolate wind and looked at her. It looks so thin, yet so firm, as if it can describe the undulating lines between the sea and the sky.
This moment was just a blink of an eye, but Nicholas didn't realize that he recorded this eternal moment.
When Nicholas recalled it again many years later, he would never have imagined that this was the moment when the fates of Hugo and Tracy were intertwined. The grievances are concentrated in this moment.
"I'm looking at you (I. See. You)." Tracy said to Hugo, and after she finished speaking, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and the sarcasm in that smile was only understood by Hugo.
Hugo immediately remembered the New Year's Eve party in 1992. It was on that night that he recalled everything and understood the entanglement between Lancaster and Tracy, and Tracy also told him at that time. The phrase, "I'm looking at you". When Tracy finished saying that, Hugo went through the Ballon d'Or event; what about today, will history repeat itself?
Hugo is no longer worried, not because he has enough strength now, but because his heart is strong enough, facing Tracy's full of mocking smile, Hugo's mouth outlines a smile and replied, " I do not care."
Just one sentence made the smile freeze at the corner of Tracy's mouth, not because of Hugo's tough fight back, but because she suddenly remembered the last time she was in front of Hugo after she was rejected by Hugo. Trying to salvage this relationship, she told Hugo about her devotion and dedication to this relationship. At that time, Hugo replied, "I don't care."
This sentence shattered all Tracy's sanity at first, and then she desperately launched revenge.
But today, the same sentence did not make Tracy lose her sense, but became a little dazed: She, what she has done in the past few years, is it right or wrong? What's the point?
Hugo didn't look at Tracy again, but turned and left, taking a calm pace. This is the first time that Hugo left first when the two met after Tracy took revenge. Tracy just stood there, looking down and thinking, not even paying too much attention to Hugo's departure, just standing there.
Seeing that moment of lightning and flint, Nicholas was also a little stunned. Is this the meeting between Hugo and Tracy? No sparks, or is there a turbulent undercurrent? Everything puzzled Nicholas, and it was only after many years that Nicholas realized the importance of this moment, and many history, often like this, left its mark inadvertently.
From Tracy's appearance to Hugo's departure, it actually took less than twenty seconds. For ordinary fans, if they didn't even notice these situations, in their eyes, it was just rain. Guo suddenly stopped and seemed to be thinking about being interviewed by those reporters. Then Hugo saw a familiar producer. The two smiled and said hello. Hugo turned and left.
Other than that, nothing unusual.
After Hugo took a few steps forward, he finally stopped because he saw the familiar Nicholas McClen. Hugo knew that on the red carpet, he must be interviewed by the media, and these interviews in the media were generally It won't be too explosive, after all, no one wants to spoil the atmosphere of the awards ceremony that is about to kick off. Even if there is curiosity, it will be reserved for interviews after the awards ceremony.
Of course, this is not absolute. There will also be media on the red carpet trying to risk the world, asking sensitive topics, trying to find some news. But because the red carpet is where people gather, it's often difficult for their strategies to succeed, which is why most reporters don't take this risk.
Therefore, in fact, there is not much difference in what media to receive interviews. It is better to choose more familiar media.
Seeing Hugo walking towards Nicholas, the surrounding media quickly swarmed over, "Hugo, look here", "here, here", "here is 'Entertainment Weekly'"... all kinds of The shouts came one after another, because it was not the interview time, but the photo-taking time. Everyone wanted to record Hugo's fixed-point photos as soon as possible.
Although the Oscar red carpet does not have a special photo area, this is because every part of the entire red carpet is the best place to take pictures. The red carpet, the background logo, and the pattern of the golden man are all clear enough. So the actors can stand in any unobstructed space, and they can accept the photo.
Since this was Hugo's first stopover after he stepped on the red carpet, it almost attracted the firepower of two-thirds of the surrounding reporters. All guns and short guns were aimed at Hugo, hoping to record Hugo's appearance on the red carpet. The handsome pose on the carpet, presumably this photo alone is enough to win the attention of tomorrow's page.
Although Hugo was still a little nervous, he was very familiar with the red carpet process, so he quickly stopped and stood there, accepting photo invitations from all directions.
Generally speaking, the photo time will not exceed one minute. After all, there are so many big stars on the Oscar red carpet, and people don't have enough time to stay in one place all the time. But today, I don't know if everyone is worried that Hugo will leave without stopping, so they are reluctant to end the photo shoot, which made Hugo pose for a full two minutes.
But Hugo saw that everyone had not stopped, so he had to take the initiative to interrupt everyone. He left his set point, walked in front of Nicholas, smiled and waved hello, "Good evening."
"Hugo, didn't you bring a female companion tonight?" Nicholas was the first to shout loudly, and this topic suddenly brought the surrounding noise under control. In fact, the essence of this question is to ask about the recent scandal between Hugo and Sandra. I have to say that Nicholas is still very old-fashioned.
Hugo laughed when he heard this question. He also knew that Nicholas was actually helping himself. Recently, the scandal has been raging. The Los Angeles Times helped clarify it and it didn't help much, so Hugo just said half-jokingly. To, "I didn't invite a date, so I had to come alone."
Although Hugo just said such a sentence, the reporters can have countless understandings, it can be a humorous joke, it can be Hugo's love for Sandra, or it can be a mockery of the reporters' constant hype of scandals.
Looking at Hugo's shallow smile, Nicholas couldn't help but complain, and Hugo was really not worried at all, "So, what do you expect from the awards ceremony tonight? You were shortlisted for the Best Supporting Actor competition, you How are you feeling at the moment?"
"This reminds me of the time when I was drinking and filming." Hugo's brief words made many reporters laugh. Hugo was mocking the previous rumors about the "Schindler's List" crew. , Now these rumors have long been clarified, and Hugo's professional image has also been recognized, "Actually, you know, I am a member of the crew, I hope all members of our crew can have a good night, everyone. It’s been hard work before, but now I can relax a little bit, after all, it’s not up to us to decide whether to win or not.”
Hugo's words made everyone chuckle again, and Nicholas hurriedly continued to ask, "Don't you have any expectations for winning the award?"
"In my opinion, being shortlisted is a great affirmation. This is my first nomination, isn't it?" Hugo actually used the media's previous words as a shield, "As for the result, I know It's not popular." After Hugo finished speaking, he laughed heartily.
In fact, Hugo still has some expectations for the little golden man. After all, nomination means there is a chance. Even if the opportunity is small, it is one of the candidates and can be recognized by the Oscar, which means that all Hugo's previous efforts are correct. of.
Of course, Hugo also wants to convince himself that the Oscar is not the only standard for acting certification. Many acting masters and master directors have not been favored by Oscars in their entire lives, because winning an award also requires luck.
People say that being shortlisted depends on strength, because the rule of the finalist stage is that only professionals of the award can participate in the voting, which means that the shortlisted candidates are all career choices; but winning the award depends on luck and popularity. ——This is also the origin of the post-academy public relations, because all judges are eligible to vote for the winners, and there are guilt votes, racial votes, and ethnic group votes.
Hugo knew all these truths, but when he really stood on the Oscar's red carpet, his inner excitement and tension still revealed his truest emotions.
But no matter what, appearing on the Oscar nomination list for the first time proves that Hugo's efforts are worthwhile and the direction is clear. This is the greatest encouragement to Hugo. As for Hugo's performance at tonight's awards ceremony, only time will tell.
