This is more than just a glass of champagne. Champagne is just a polite invitation, but Marvin's friendliness is hidden behind it, and the sentence he attached to the champagne, "Then we will talk later."

If Hugo accepts this glass of champagne, it means that he has accepted Marvin’s goodwill in the public. This is one point; it also means that Hugo has accepted Marvin’s invitation to continue talking again, which is the second point. .

But if Hugo rejects this glass of champagne, it may directly destroy the atmosphere that was full of smiles just now, and even sweep Marvin’s kindness in front of everyone. The original subtext was hidden behind the champagne, and it will definitely be. Because Hugo was put on the table because of this action, then Hugo is bound to become a target, as well as Joseph.

Marvin's eyes clearly told Hugo: Your ideas are correct. At this time, Marvin's eyes locked on Hugo firmly, and he didn't relax at all. He didn't even allow Hugo to divert his eyes. Any slight movement of Hugo would trigger Marvin's further pressing.

And at this moment, Hugo could finally see the emotions behind Marvin’s eyes. A trace of cruelty flashed behind those smiling eyes, which made Hugo believe that Marvin’s method was just drizzle, even Appetizers are not counted.

This is the reason why Hugo dislikes this kind of power game. Every action and sentence hides deep meaning and is startling every step. Even a detail must be paid attention to, otherwise it is very likely to fall into a trap. This kind of power game makes all human relationships full of insidiousness, calculations, interests and schemes. This is not the way Hugo likes it.

Although Marvin’s eyes were fierce and decisive, Hugo would not compromise easily. If he wanted to compromise, before Tracy Jacobs, before Lang Meier At the time, before the Golden Globes incident, Hugo had already compromised, so Hugo was unwilling to compromise before, and it is the same now. So Hugo fought back in his own way.

"Thank you Marvin, thank you for your hospitality," Hugo said with a big smile after taking over the champagne, and then he saw the smile on Marvin's face bloom again, but he hadn't waited for Marvin to become proud. , I heard Hugo continue to say, “But I’m really sorry, my old injury has relapsed recently. The doctor told me not to drink any alcohol, and I’m currently filming, and I can’t go against the wishes of the crew. So I can only use words. Express my gratitude."

Hugo's words actually made Marvin stunned. He didn't expect that Hugo would come up with such a sentence, which made him the first reaction and could not find the correct response to respond, and then listened to Hugo continue to say, "I know I'm really disappointed. It's like this at Christmas, and it's estimated to be like this at the New Year's Eve tonight. People like me should be excluded from the party, an atmosphere destroyer."

Hugo ridiculed himself and laughed loudly when he finished speaking. Some unknown people around also laughed, which made the atmosphere alleviate a lot.

Marvin really didn’t expect Hugo to handle it in this way. Hugo didn’t seem to know the hidden meaning behind this glass of champagne. Just like a rookie in a social occasion, he treated this glass of wine as a simple social entertainment, just It's just a glass of wine, and the meaning behind this "delivery of wine" has completely disappeared. Moreover, Hugo also found a reason that everyone could not refute, and took the originally tight topic directly, which made Marvin really surprised.

What can Marvin say now? Either it is forcing Hugo to drink, which is obviously stupid; or it is passively giving up, as if nothing happened just now, it is tantamount to admitting his failure; or it is more straightforward. Throw the topic out, this is the best reaction Marvin can make immediately under such an atmosphere.

"Hehe, the most important thing in a party is the atmosphere, but besides alcohol, there are many things that can invigorate the atmosphere. For example, beautiful women. I think there must be beautiful women gathered in the occasions when you are there. Therefore, you must be very popular in the party. "Yes." Marvin followed Hugo's words cleverly, then changed the front of the conversation and said with a smile, "I think we can have a good chat in a while and discuss about the party tonight..."

"Haha, Marvin your party? Oh, no, I don't think I should go anymore to avoid spoiling your party." Hugo interrupted Marvin again, and he ignored Marvin. The subtext in the words responded literally in this way, making Ma Wen stupefied, but then Hugo smiled and said, "In fact, it must be fun to be able to attend your party. But unfortunately, I have already made arrangements tonight, and I have to shoot tomorrow, I am afraid it will be very difficult. I hope I have a chance in the future."

After speaking, Hugo raised a sip of the champagne in his hand, raised it towards Marvin, then turned and left. Just as Marvin was about to speak, Hugo turned around and said, "Thank you for the hospitality."

Marvin stood still, and didn't hold his breath. Marvin looked at the back of Hugo leaving. Hugo handed the champagne to Samora. Samora hesitated and put the champagne on the counter. Then the two disappeared into the crowd.

Marvin absolutely doesn’t believe that Hugo knows nothing. If Hugo really didn’t know anything, how could he grasp the timing of words so accurately; but he had no choice but to take Hugo for a while, which did not let Marvin. Being angry made him more interested. No wonder Lang Meyer, Roland Parkin and others did not take Hugo down.

So, is Hugo really loyal to his agent? Marvin does not believe that there is no absolute loyalty in Hollywood. There is no absolute enemy and absolute friend. As long as there is enough profit bargaining chip, everything is It can be traded, just like his current job in the company. After a year of brewing, he has regained the initiative. He is now waiting for an opportunity to start together, then the international innovation management company can return to him. Hands up.

Marvin looked at Hugo's back, the sulking in his heart dissipated, and smiled again. Hugo Lancaster, will he be the time to launch a coup?

"Hugo, are you sure this is okay?" Samora only felt that a dense layer of sweat emerged from behind her. Just now Marvin's posture seemed to burst out suddenly at any time. An existence like Marvin was all about mastering. Given the existence of the power of life and death of others, if Marvin wants to use his contacts to block Hugo, the power is definitely not comparable to Tracy and Lang, even adding a Martin Baum is not enough, because Marvin has powerful capital that none of them have!

Hugo looked at the nervous Samora, but laughed, shrugged, and said indifferently, "Why not?" Seeing Samora's dumbfounded appearance, Hugo explained, "This kind of power game I was not able to participate in the first place. I was just a chess piece. They like to make rounds and obscure things. I don’t like it. If they put it on the table and say, I might have to think about what to do..." It’s like Roland back then. Like Parkin, if Marvin spreads everything out clearly, then as long as Hugo is still at the International Innovation Management Company, he must be concerned about Marvin's energy, instead of rejecting it directly.

"But since he likes to say everything by suggestion, I pretend not to understand what he can do. He just digs holes and jumps by himself." Hugo curled his lips, he said nothing. Because he knows that Marvin is still constrained by Lang, Rick and others, and the fight for power cannot be carried out on the table, otherwise the entire company will fall into chaos and may even fall apart, so Marvin can only use the method of suggestion. , Which also gave Hugo room to fight back.

"But, if he really gets angry and you are still in the company, what should you do?" Samora said worriedly.

"Do you think he will?" Hugo asked Samora stunned, thinking about it, the reason why these agents wanted to win Hugo is because Hugo has a useful value, so it is impossible for them to directly interact with Hugo. Hugo turned his face, especially at the critical moment of the internal power game, they did not allow such a deviation to appear. This is the truth of business. As long as the seller's market has sufficient resources, the buyer's market can only be passive. This is the fundamental reason why Hugo can gain the upper hand.

"Besides, my contract with the company will expire in April next year." Hugo's last light sentence made Samora laugh.

Now even if international innovation management companies "don't want" Hugo, other brokerage companies will be eager to call in Hugo, no one will push Hugo out of the door.

Of course, this little advantage of Hugo cannot last long, at least now because of the negative effects of "Pulp Fiction" are gradually expanding ~www.readwn.com~ The media generally believe that Hugo's choice of "Pulp Fiction" is one. Suicidal actions, before this movie is released or Hugo receives the next one to the satisfaction of the media, Hugo's advantages will only gradually be wiped away.

However, this advantage is enough to make Hugo straighten up in front of Marvin.

After figuring this out, Samora chuckled, but then his smile froze at the corner of his mouth, because he saw Joseph coming from not far away, and Hugo and Joseph were just like that. Close to the front, about to meet. Although Samora has always been unclear about what happened to Hugo and Joseph, he clearly knows that the two people did not meet and did not talk. The relationship was absolutely freezing. Coupled with the performance of Marvin and others, he could not outline it. A vague outline of the event is gone. Therefore, it does not seem to be a good thing for two people to meet at this time.

Hugo and Joseph also noticed each other. The pace of the two slowed down slightly. Obviously, neither of them was surprised by the meeting at the luncheon, but the point is that the two people who have not had any conversation for more than two months are Should we fist directly, or should we continue to remain silent?
