Chapter 82 082

After re-entering the script practice, Hugo's performance has obviously changed qualitatively, and the whole person has entered a state. However, it is only a simple practice now, so Hugo's performance can only be said to be quite satisfactory, not surprising, but at least it can make the script practice go smoothly, which is already a great improvement.

The atmosphere in the conference room finally returned to calm. Although no one took the initiative to talk to Hugo, at least no one was looking at Hugo with strange eyes. It's just that everyone is still reluctant to have too much communication with Hugo. It's like Hugo is infected with a virus. Hugo actually wants to talk to Jack. After all, Hugo is also considered to be introduced by Jack into the crew, but it is a pity that Jack did not. Without such plans, after the morning script practice, Jack and Rob left.

In the end, at lunchtime, Hugo was like an abandoned child, sitting alone in the corner to eat. Kevin came to sit for a while, but Hugo just chatted with Kevin for a while, and then took his own place. The need to read the script to catch up with the progress made Kevin return to the big team.

Hugo knows that everyone is not blatantly sneering now, just because they don't want to affect the progress of the script practice, but they still don't agree with Hugo. Before Hugo proves himself with strength, or Jack takes the initiative to change his treatment of Yu. Before the attitude of the fruit, this situation is difficult to have a substantial change.

Therefore, even if Kevin accompanies Hugo, there is no way to change anything, but it will make Kevin's position more awkward. Only then did Hugo take the initiative to give Kevin a step and let him return to the main force. However, what Hugo said about reading the script is also true. After he quickly solved his lunch, he started reading the script again. He is now too behind schedule. If he does not hurry up, then his situation in the crew will only get worse. difficulty.

The lunch break was a full ninety minutes, and everyone else gathered in twos and threes to smoke or drink coffee, while Hugo sat alone in the corner and continued to read the script.

Looking at Hugo who was studying hard, Joseph walked over and handed Hugo a bottle of water. Hugo didn't look up, just raised his free left hand, but he didn't touch the mineral water bottle for a long time. Just grabbing air. Joseph reluctantly grabbed Hugo's left hand, and then stuffed the mineral water into Hugo's palm. Only then did Hugo grab the water bottle and put it on his knees, but he didn't drink water for a long time, and his right hand kept writing on the script. Painting and muttering a few words from time to time.

Joseph could only sigh, squat down, and help Hugo unscrew the cap of the mineral water bottle, then grab Hugo's left wrist and lift it up, saying, "Drinking some water won't waste your time."

Only then did Hugo react, and he hurriedly raised his head and drank two large saliva. A smile appeared on his face immediately, and he was obviously thirsty. After drinking the water, Hugo looked down at the script again. Facing such Hugo, Joseph could only re-screw the cap of the mineral water bottle, then stood up and stepped back, leaning against the wall with his hands. Standing cross-chested, quietly accompanying Hugo.

This is what Jack and Rob saw when they came back. Hugo unexpectedly didn't go to have a good relationship with the other actors, but was reading the script alone, which was really unexpected for Jack.

Rob looked at Jack's face. With an ambiguous expression, he gave a low laugh, "Jack, do you remember? He was recommended to me by you, and I am very satisfied with him now, how about you?"

Jack's expression still didn't change much, he just curled his lips, "At least those two old guys didn't lie to me." Apart from other things, Hugo's attitude towards life is still very correct, which made Jack's attitude towards Hugo. Impression scores slightly changed. "However, whether it is suitable or not depends on the next performance. If the performance is not good, the two old guys will wait." The two old guys mentioned here naturally refer to Bo and Al.

Seeing Jack's stern expression, Rob laughed and didn't speak any more. Instead, he walked towards the conference room and shouted in Hugo's direction while standing at the door, "Hugo, The script practice in the afternoon is about to begin, come in."

It's a pity that Hugo, who was immersed in the script world, didn't hear it at all. Joseph raised his head and saw Jack who was about to enter the conference room. He quickly patted Hugo on the shoulder, "Start."

Only then did Hugo react, he stood up quickly, took the script and walked towards the conference room. Before Hugo could sit down, Rob said, "Let's start the afternoon with the court inquiries of Daniel and Kendrick." The entire conference room fell silent for a moment.

Hugo paused for a moment, but soon became consistent, took a deep breath, and sat down in the chair again. He could clearly feel the gazes from Demi, Jack, Kevin and others, both probing and sarcastic. Schadenfreude.

Daniel and Kendrick have a confrontation scene in France. Kendrick is a loyal subordinate of Colonel Jessup. The order of the red regulations comes from Colonel Jessup, and then directly issued by Kendrick. So conquering Kendrick has extraordinary significance. This scene is an important moment for Daniel to show his ability. In other words, the game is very difficult.

Hugo didn't look at Joseph's worried look, didn't look at Jack's inquiry look, and didn't look at Demi's disdain look. He just opened the script of the scene, and then looked up at the man sitting diagonally opposite him. Kiefer-Sutherland, Hugo is going to play against Kiefer in this scene.

After getting Kiefer's prepared look, Hugo took a deep breath, closed his eyes and made some adjustments, entering Daniel's state, "Captain Kendrick, this is the three most recent assessment reports of Associate Corporal Dawson, above. With your signature. Twice rated excellent, but on the last report, June 9th, he was rated as below average. I want to discuss this last report." Hugo's words were very strong Smooth, steady, calm.

"No problem," Kiefer said.

"Associate Corporal Dawson, after graduating from the infantry school, his grades were very good. When more than half of his classmates were promoted to corporal, Dawson was still a corporal." Hugo has been controlling his tone and stating the facts smoothly, but only Putting a little weight on adjectives like "excellent" is like saying something trivial, "Did Dawson get blocked because of this last report?"

"I'm pretty sure it is," Kiefer continued.

"Why does this report give Dawson such a pitiful evaluation?" Hugo sped up the rhythm of his speech a little, following Kiefer's words.

"I did forget." Inadvertently, Kiefer's answer was a little faster, "I have a lot of people under my command, and I have a lot of reports to write."

"Captain, do you remember the incident when a private named Curtis Bell stole alcohol from the officers' club?" Hugo changed the conversation and slowed down again. It can be clearly noticed that Kiefer's answer also slowed down a bit, "Yes, I remember."

"Have you reported it to your superiors?" Hugo seemed to casually pick the end of his words and asked in a very soft tone.

Kiefer's voice grew louder involuntarily, "I have two books by my bed, 'Marine Code of Conduct' and 'Bible,' and the only superiors I know are my commanders, Colonel Nathan Jessup and God."

Hugo didn't answer immediately, but paused and quietly increased the volume, "In your words, Captain, I can understand that you do not admit that the military court is also your superior."

"Objection, it has nothing to do with this case." Jack, the government lawyer played by Kevin, interrupted Hugo. And the actor who played the judge also returned, "The objection is valid, please pay attention, lawyer."

"Did you report Curtis Bell to your superiors?" Hugo's speed and tone returned to normal.

"In my memory, Private Bell is very good, and I don't want to see his resume stained because of this." Kiefer replied smoothly.

Hugo approached the conference table, leaned forward slightly, and then deliberately slowed down the speed of speech by half a beat, which made the weight of the words slightly deepen, "You prefer to solve it in the unit, right?"

"Yes, that's true." Kiefer was really fooled.

Hugo couldn't help showing a smile, "Captain, do you know what the red law is?" The answer is naturally yes, "Have you ever ordered the implementation of the red law?" The answer is naturally no, "Captain, have you ever ordered Dawson and two other men guard Curtis Bell for seven days without giving him any food or drink but water?"

Hugo began to speed up the connection between the questions and answers, slightly increasing the speed of his speech, but not exaggerating, which made Kiefer's answer start to speed up, "This is a distortion of the truth, Lieutenant! Private Bell is imprisoned in In the barracks, there is water and vitamin supplements, and I can assure you that his health has never been threatened."

"I believe this is very interesting for Private Bell." Hugo inexplicably slowed down again, and then suddenly increased his speed, "But did you order the closure? Did you order not to provide food? "Hugo's irregular speed change firmly grasped the entire rhythm in his own hands. Sure enough, Kiefer passively followed Hugo's speed. The impatience on Kiefer's face revealed his inner irritability. , but also a portrayal of the character Kendrick's heart.

"Yes, I gave orders." Kiefer took a deep breath and said.

"Can this form of departure be considered a red law?" Hugo actually slowed down again, but the connection between the question and the answer made Kiefer a little breathless, so he was silent, and finally only He choked out a "no". Hugo seized this moment of silence, and followed Kiefer's answer with a quick burst of words, "If I called the other four hundred and seventy-eight Marines at Guantanamo to testify, they would consider this Red regulations?"

It can be felt that Hugo silently controls the speed, intonation, and volume of his speech. Through this inconspicuous method, he controls his own speaking style and power arrangement. Got the rhythm.

On the surface, it seems that Hugo is just reciting lines, but this is not just "reciting" lines, it should be said that "acting" lines, although it looks bland, but it makes both Jack and Rob shine.

In just one morning, Hugo was able to have such an understanding. This talent, this effort, is not something ordinary people can have.
