Chapter 370 370
The listening rate of KCRW Radio's talk shows from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. broke the highest record in history. The highest listening rate in an instant reached 20%, and the average listening rate was also as high as 16%, although the specific data has yet to be officially confirmed. , but it is estimated that within two hours, more than 50 million listeners across the United States have listened to this program, which is no less than that of country music programs, and more than that of "Olympic", which created a good result at the beginning of the year. "Pula Talk Show" also attracted more attention.
Not only did this set of data stand out among all the radio programs of the day, surpassing the 7:00 am and 6:00 pm time periods, which are the usual listening rate champions, but also topped the listening rate of all programs throughout the week, which makes The commercial value of KCRW radio in the mouths of advertisers has doubled in an instant.
Among them, the factor that the radio listening rate is easy to attract more listeners occupies a key position, but it is undeniable that Hugo has climbed to a new height with the popularity of the movie "Sleepless in Seattle", not only The haze of the past five months has been swept away, and it has gone further than the period of "Yihai Xiongfeng", allowing Hugo to win more support.
Hugo is using his own efforts to step out of his own path as an actor. Only the success of the work can allow Hugo to have more say in the showdown with Tracy. And now it seems that "Sleepless in Seattle" has given Hugo another small victory, and it has also made the brewing "Schindler's List" and "Farewell to the Sentimental" showdown more and more turbulent.
After finishing the recording of the radio show, Hugo saw Carl in the waiting room, which surprised Hugo, "Why are you here?"
Carl pointed to Joseph who was standing behind Hugo, "I received a call for help and came here to help temporarily."
Joseph's voice came over immediately, "You should really find a manager and assistant, otherwise the work will only get busier in the future."
Joseph is just an agent after all. He can't follow Hugo around all day. He needs more time to sit in the office and find more job opportunities for Hugo. With the outbreak of Hugo's three consecutive works, Joseph is now a bit of a celebrity, and some artists are willing to seek help from Joseph's agent. Therefore, Joseph is now more and more aware of the crunch of his working hours.
After all, the manager is the nanny of many artists, and the more artists he has, the more successful he will be; while the manager is the exclusive nanny of the artist, taking care of his own artist is success. Joseph is an agent, not a manager.
Hugo looked back at Joseph, and laughed with a smile, "So, are you going to abandon me?" This ridicule made Joseph roll his eyes.
For Hugo, Joseph is the first friend he met after crossing the road, and he is currently his most trusted partner. Therefore, it is obviously not an easy task to leave the help of Joseph and seek the personal company of another manager. In this time and space, Hugo is a lonely and helpless loner. He really doesn't know who should be looking for to be the manager.
Generally speaking, managers are the most trusted objects of artists, family members are the best choice for managers, parents, siblings, lovers, etc., followed by absolutely trusted friends, best friends, confidants, because managers need to be fully responsible The artist's external work contact - including contact with the agent, so the manager needs to be able to fully understand the artist's needs and be completely one with the artist in order to seek greater benefits for the artist.
It is almost impossible for Hugo to find such a trustworthy person. Think about the irascible Adam and the still missing Lena. As for friends, Lancaster left his hometown and came to Los Angeles to work hard. Before The good friends in junior high and high school have not been in touch for many years, and the friends in Los Angeles are all insiders, so Hugo has no choice at all.
This is also the most troublesome part for Hugo at present. Once Joseph returns to the position of the agent, then he will return to the stage of fighting alone, which will be very hard - the most important thing is dazed.
"Fortunately, I won't have a job for a long time, so don't worry." Hugo punched Joseph and said with a smile. After the "Sleepless in Seattle" promotion is over, Hugo and Glory will join the long march of the tour, and will not take new jobs for at least three months. This period will also be a buffer period for Joseph to return to his agent. .
Joseph looked at Hugo, and he was also vaguely worried. Although he could not say that he knew everything about Hugo, he also knew that it was not so easy for Hugo to find a manager. Joseph could only hope that Hugo would find him. The former high school best friend and confidant have found a trustworthy manager.
Carl came up and patted Joseph and Hugo on the back, "Are you ready? When I came, I was terrified by the battle outside." Alex and Charlize are just actors now In the early stage of career development, the manager's problem is not prominent, and Carl has no plans to increase his artists in the short term. He will still devote himself to the work arrangement of the two people.
"How many people are there?" Hugo also had to temporarily put aside the manager's affairs and take a step by step. Anyway, managers are generally equipment that only top artists can have. There are a lot of actors in the circle without managers, and Hugo is still a long way from the so-called top, so there is no need to worry. Compared with the manager, it is more pragmatic to have an assistant.
Carl went ahead and sold out, "You can see it when you go out there, trust me, you'll be shocked. Joe, are you sure we don't need the help of security? It's not just the two of us. such an easy thing.”
"Don't worry, they will take the initiative to help..." Before Hugo's voice could fall, Carl pushed open the door on the first floor, and then Hugo saw the endless sea of people in front of him, starting from the door and heading towards The far end of the entire playground spreads out. When you look up, you can even see a lot of people standing on the balcony of the surrounding teaching buildings or dormitory buildings.
When the crowd exceeds a certain number, it is actually difficult to measure the number of people with the naked eye. The difference between 1,000 and 2,000 people may be obvious, but the difference between 3,000 and 4,000 people is very subtle. At this time, Hugo could not make an accurate judgment, but he was sure that there were at least 2,000 people in front of him, densely spreading in various open spaces of the school, and it seemed that it was possible that there were 3,000 people. of.
At this time, the sun has already set towards the west, and the warm orange sunlight fills the whole campus with the taste of memories, and the scene of the crowds in front of them is even more reminiscent of the grand occasion when the school held a celebration or a grand competition. The youthful enthusiasm shone in the sunlight, causing the heart to stop abruptly, and then jumping violently, the sour and sweet excitement rampaged in the chest, and unconsciously the nose was a little sore, but the smile at the corner of the mouth preempted the eyes. The moisture in it blooms in the sun, blooming proudly.
“啊啊啊……”眼前一张张被阳光模糊了的脸庞爆发出巨大的热情，尖叫起来，那种扑面而来的热浪即使是盛夏的迈阿密也无法相提并论，这巨大的气浪让雨If the three big men are almost unsteady.
"Surprise!" Carl said with a smile at the stunned Hugo, which was really surprising.
In fact, when it comes to the madness of movie fans and fans, fans can always create more miracles, while movie fans more calmly enter the cinema to express their support. The box office is the most hardcore support of movie fans, but fans prefer to use it on the spot Scream and shout to show your support. In fact, this is also related to the difference in the way actors and singers perform, because the way actors communicate with the audience is to perform on the big screen, while singers can impress fans with their singing on the spot.
But today, Carl and Joseph have witnessed with their own eyes that movie fans can also burst into great energy. Although this is Santa Monica Community College, the enthusiasm of college students is unique and irreproducible, but the surging crowd is still jaw-dropping. First, "Smell the fragrance and know a woman", and then "Yihai Xiongfeng", which made people witness Hugo's handsomeness and strength, and now a "Sleepless in Seattle" that touched countless people has absorbed unimaginable for Hugo. Popularity exploded at this moment.
Hugo lowered his head and blinked, quickly wiped away the warmth in his eyes, and then once again faced the endless enthusiastic students in front of him with a smile. How hard-won this support is, Hugo knows better than anyone else in his heart, but this time, Hugo will not be complacent, he will cherish it even more, just for the touching moment.
Originally thought that the crowds at the scene would swarm up, and it would be a daunting task to leave, but the students in front of him once again surprised Hugo. The playground, which was originally filled with crowds, had been vacated since a passage was vacated, as if Moses had broken through. Opening the sea, a road was opened, and the sea of people in front of him also vacated a road leading to the parking lot. The concrete road covered with sunlight was more dazzling than the red carpet under the spotlight.
Hugo took a step forward, Carl and Joseph were guarding on both sides, and the group of three walked forward with a steady pace. The wave after wave of noise made Hugo's blood boil. Even waving seems difficult, and can only repay such enthusiastic support with the brightest smile.
"Hugo! Hugo! Hugo!" The fiery voices gathered from all directions brought a purple and gold crown to Hugo in the lazy sunshine of the California sky. To everyone's surprise, "Seattle sleepless" It ushered in a new peak for Hugo's actor career. At this moment, it shines in the sky.
