Superstar

Hugo was sitting on the back chair of the beauty salon, yawning constantly, and the makeup artist Troy Cole, who was standing next to him drying Hugo’s hair, said with a smile, "What did you do last night? Slept for half an hour

"

Hugo opened his eyes, still with sleepy eyes, "If you get up at seven o'clock in the morning, run for half an hour, and then drive an hour from Malibu to the city, then you You can understand my status."

"Oh, Malibu, did you buy a house there? Don't invite me to the party in the new house." Troy said with a smile, with familiarity in his tone.

In fact, Troy and Hugo didn’t know each other for a long time. In November, after Hugo began to promote "scenting and knowing women", he fixed himself in the beauty salon where Troy worked. Because of the past two months Hugo’s publicity schedule is very intensive. Publicity activities like previews, radio shows, and ribbon-cutting all require Hugo to make a full preparation to arrive at the scene. Therefore, Hugo and Troy also meet very frequently. I'm familiar a lot.

Today, Hugo was to attend the Golden Globe Awards ceremony held at the Hilton Hotel in the evening, so he came to the beauty salon early in the morning to take care of himself. Since there must be so many artists participating in the ceremony today, Hugo also made an appointment early, and then arrived at the beauty room on time to start his day’s itinerary.

Hearing Troy’s teasing, Hugo couldn’t help but laughed, “I’m not that rich now. Buying a house in Malibu? That’s a distant dream. The villa I live in now costs five million U.S. dollars. I heard it’s a middle-to-lower grade in Malibu."

"Since you know you have a job today, you should end your vacation yesterday." Troy said casually with a smile.

Hugo yawned again, "Yeah, I thought it would be only a 40-minute drive, but there was a traffic jam on Santa Monica Boulevard this morning, and I was almost late, which is really frustrating."

While talking, a familiar and unfamiliar voice came on the TV screen in front of him. Hugo looked up and saw that it was "Oprah Talk Show" and "Isn't this already broadcast the day before yesterday?" During the live broadcast, he and Wu Ma watched in the villa.

"It was four days ago." Troy corrected Hugo and made Hugo laugh. During his vacation, he did not have an accurate concept of time. "This show was very successful. This is the third rebroadcast in four days. "Troy's words surprised Hugo. He was in Malibu, as if completely isolated from the world. Joseph and him mentioned this matter, but Hugo did not expect it to be so successful. "It's just me. What I saw, I didn’t know if I replayed it a few times outside of that."

Seeing Hugo's curious expression, Troy couldn't help but smiled, and asked the assistant next to him to increase his voice, and then said, "Don't you know the ratings of this episode of'Oprah Talk Show' when it premiered? The whole of Los Angeles is boiling over. Well, I actually want to say that the entire United States is very lively, but you know, I just saw the sights of Los Angeles, I don’t know the sights of other cities, but the ratings and newspapers and magazines told me , Buddy, you have become the hottest topic now."

Hugo’s sleepworms ran away a lot. "The ratings? Joe told me, uh..." Hugo felt that his memory was a little vague. When Joseph told him that day, he was too excited, his usual calm tone. It was almost impossible to scream directly. Hugo can't remember the specific number. He just remembers that he was too happy with Joseph, but he forgot the detailed situation, "15 million viewers?"

"God, you are really a big heart." Troy rolled his eyes, obviously dissatisfied with Hugo's attitude, and then his eyes rounded and said excitedly, "Twenty-three million viewers, this But the "Oprah Talk Show" has the best performance in the past year."

The memory in Hugo's head gradually became clear. It is no wonder that Joseph was so excited that day, and his usual calmness could not be suppressed. The average viewership of the "Oprah Talk Show" has remained around 12 million, and Hugo starred. This program actually created nearly twice the results, which is indeed very shocking. More importantly, this means that 23 million people in the United States have watched Hugo’s interview. Troy’s earlier sentence, "The entire United States is very lively..." was confirmed. You know, the current population of the United States is only 250 million.

"You should really go and read newspapers and magazines." Troy suggested.

Hugo remembered that Joseph suggested him the same way. It was just that he stayed in Malibu on holiday, and they did not subscribe to any newspapers and magazines. In addition, they stayed at home for a few days, so the information was almost isolated from the world. Like in the 21st century, even if you stay home, a computer can connect to the world, so the news of Hugo lags behind.

"So, what newspaper do you have here?" Hugo was completely awake at this time, looking around for any carrier that can be used to search for information.

Troy searched around, and then asked the assistant to bring all the newspapers and magazines that could be seen around him, "Here, here are all the newspapers and magazines for the past week, you can find them yourself."

Hugo ignored Troy's busy schedule and began to flip through the magazine in his hand. He soon found relevant comments in the "Rolling Stone" magazine.

"Rolling Stone" started as a professional music magazine. It has now developed into the most authoritative professional music magazine with the highest sales volume in the United States. It has also set foot in the fields of variety shows and movies to become a comprehensive'sexual' magazine, but it contains some music content. The authority of'sex' is still the highest in the United States.

……Sunburn, as a piece of pure acoustic guitar performance, shows a completely different and fresh style. It combines folk and popular elements, and uses the most basic strings to present the essence of music, which makes people Refreshing.

The creator did not use'fancy' **** and tedious arrangement, but restored the most original sound quality of the acoustic guitar, using this clear and slightly fragile string sound for interpretation. When the acoustic guitar vibrates, it is like a chant. When the poet wandering on the streets, he sang the story of an unknown sad man, and then sang it with the wind, and it was deeply imprinted in everyone's heart.

The creator can use the simplest way of arrangement to show the loss and entanglement in his heart. It can be called outstanding skill. What's more commendable is that the lyrics of this song look plain and unremarkable, but with a touch of charm, just like The aroma of mint leaves is average, lingering in the air for a long time, which complements the melody and makes a masterpiece.

It’s hard to imagine that such a masterpiece actually comes from Hugo Lancaster. This is an outstanding actor. His greatest musical achievement before is the adaptation of the ending song for the movie ‘Yihai Xiongfeng’ which he starred in. But this time, Lancaster was at the recording site of the show, and it took only seven steps to compose the song. His musical talent was so shocking that he had to stand up and applaud. "

After Hugo finished reading, he was a little surprised. Although he liked the song "Sunburn" very much, he had never expected that "Rolling Stone" magazine would give such a high evaluation. This is really overjoyed. Prior to this, Hugo’s composition of songs was regarded as self-entertainment. Even if it was used for Glory to Death performances, it was only spread among the small range of people. Hugo’s ability has never been recognized by the authority; and this time, Hugo is in the two. Thirty-three million people showed off their creative talents. The authoritative "sex" magazine "Rolling Stone" in the United States and even the world gave such a high degree of affirmation, which made Hugo "excited" to be a little unable to himself, he did not even have Too many expressions, because he didn't know how to express his joy.

The dates of the next few newspapers were wrong, so I didn’t see the relevant information, but Hugo’s slightly trembling hands still shed his inner excitement, and finally found another professional music magazine. rotation(.

"Zhizhuan" is a professional music magazine. The authoritative "sex" in the industry is enough to compete with "Rolling Stone." The hip-hop music is given enough attention.

The selection of magazine materials has always been bold and unconventional. This is very different from the relatively conservative "Rolling Stone" magazine. This can be fully reflected in the reports of underground rock bands. Many unknown rock bands can even be listed. On the cover of the "rotation" magazine, we can see their boldness.

In terms of music genres, hardcore, country, reggae, experimental music, and underground music all account for a considerable proportion of "spin". The "spin" on the road to the rise of hip-hop music has played a role in the decision to fuel the wave. 'Sexual' role. Therefore, "Rotation" is very authoritative in the underground music world, even more prosperous than "Rolling Stone".

Hugo opened the "Rotation" and saw the comments inside and wrote, "It is a bold attempt to deduce the folk songs in a popular way~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and more importantly, not only is it not annoying, It also makes people like the abnormal, which is enough to see the talent of Hugo Lancaster. Lancaster uses the most concise arrangement to present the emotions in his heart in an understatement, but it is deeply and heavily defeated. The psychological defense line of the listeners, the'sunburn' was left on the skin surface of every listener.

Compared with Lancaster's creative talents, his ability to sing and perform has attracted the author's attention. An excellent creation can have countless ways of interpretation, and it will never be outdated, but only the most correct way can maximize the charm of this creation. There is no doubt that Lancaster is on the right path.

In Lancaster’s singing without any effort, the exquisite transition, the dragging of the tail, and the rhythm of breathing are full of amazing skills. The first time I listen to it, it seems to be I was hit hard by this song without noticing the reason. Apart from feeling the turbulence and regret in my heart, I didn’t have any thoughts; but after repeated listening, I felt that Lancaster’s sounding dull but full The voices of countless emotions, as if'milk' oil meets strawberries, maximize the charm of the song.

No one can deny that Lancaster surprised us. "

Looking at the comments of "Rotation", Hugo finally got a little real feeling: Is his musical talent recognized?
