In the previous life, after Li Jin had just traveled over, she was dazzled by ecstasy when she was ignorant, and tried to eliminate her sense of existence, so she didn't really join the funeral, didn't confront Ryan, didn't talk to Sophia, and didn't really have a chance. No dialogue with George.

But after leaving the funeral, during the short stay in Los Angeles, George was indeed a competent friend. He not only helped Li Jin quickly "grasp" the situation, but also helped solve many problems. For example, he was inspired by George when he left Los Angeles for development in New York;

So, even after arriving in New York, they kept in touch. Li Jin has always regarded George as a bridge between his two lives, remembering the past and looking forward to the future. What's more, George Clooney—the famous George Clooney, his admiration for Hollywood stars and his vanity that can't be treated as outsiders, made him and George maintain a friendship all the time.

As time went on, George's true face was revealed little by little.

Many years later, Li Jin really became Lance, and only then did she know that George stole the creative copyright of the work "Good-Night, and-Good-Luck" and kept it as her own. Directed and acted by himself, after its release in 2005, it won critical acclaim. On the seventy-eighth Oscar, it won Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art knows and other six nominations!

But in fact, the script for "Good Night and Good Luck" was originally Lance's idea and idea, and Lance wrote the framework and opening. Later, when Lance and George talked about the script, they suddenly found that both of them had a persistent passion for journalism. The two hit it off and wrote the script together.

However, after the script was completed, the subject matter was too boring and profound, but the core idea of ​​the script was very complicated and delicate. Even if Diorama Pictures could invest in the filming, they could not find a suitable director for a while, so the script was temporarily shelved down.

No one thought that this delay would be four years, and the world had already been turned upside down. Not only did Lance leave Diorama Films, but he also had a new soul under his skin, so the script of "Good Night and Good Luck" was just forgotten by him. Subsequently, George became the creator of this work as a matter of course!

Lance once went to the United States Copyright Office to investigate, and the registrant of the creative copyright of "Good Night, Good Luck" is George Clooney, and the registration time is impressively 2002, the day after he left Diorama Films. Therefore, things have already been irreversible.

The memories in my mind flashed in an instant, and settled down again in a blink of an eye. Lance looked at George with a sincere face, and smiled with the corners of his mouth, "I'm not sure, I was thinking, maybe I should stay, at least my You still have a bargaining chip in your hand, so you have the capital to fight against Ryan, don't you?"

In fact, Lance had no idea what George was talking about. In the previous life, they had such a conversation, not at a funeral, but at a lunch. At that time, Li Jin was afraid of showing his feet, so he didn't ask too much, and he was only thinking of cutting through the mess quickly and solving all the troubles, so he accepted George's suggestion and signed a contract.

When he got the contract, he also briefly read it, but the cumbersome legal provisions are like a bible to a layman like him, and it is about transferring the copyright of the adaptation of several works whose names he has never even heard of. Therefore, without any hesitation, he wrote in black and white.

But this time, Lance decided to change tactics, and he needed to regain the initiative.

George looked at Lance in surprise, and the surprise between his brows was not concealed, "I thought you had decided to leave Los Angeles and go to New York." Lance just smiled lightly, and the deep eyes seemed meaningful, but Unpredictable, George turned his head and looked in Ryan's direction, "Did that **** tell you something just now? I told you, he will never let it go easily. He is like a mad dog Same, bite you tightly!"

"So, you're saying that since he stole everything from me, I should obediently admit defeat and let him continue to be proud?" Lance raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes showed just the right amount of surprise and anger.

George waved his hands again and again, and his tone softened, "You know that's not what I meant." The innocence in his eyes showed his grievances as a friend, but he didn't push himself further, and quickly changed his tone, " Lance, what I mean is, you've already signed the contract and it can't be amended. So, you should let go of Diorama Films, get out of there completely, cut off all ties. Then start over and start a new one The company, with your ability, will soon break into the sky, and then you can use your own methods to regain everything that belongs to you."

The resolute expression looked a little tragic, which made people feel that, as a good friend, he still wanted to tell the truth even at the risk of offending Lance.

But to George's surprise, Lance was not angry. Instead, he calmed down and looked serious. On the surface, it seemed that Lance was thinking about George's suggestion, but inexplicably, George felt that there was something wrong with Lance's expression, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

At this moment, Lance's eyes suddenly lifted up, and directly hit George's scrutiny. Those blue eyes burst out with an inquiring look, as if they could peek into George's true thoughts. George couldn't help but squeeze a cold sweat. But at the critical moment, George still didn't panic, but showed a smile, with puzzled eyes in his eyes, as if he was asking, "What's wrong?"

Lance looked at George's perfect mask, but he couldn't help sighing, and the smile on the corner of his mouth bloomed slightly, "You're right, I should really forget the past and start over." George's pupils flickered slightly Shan, he could feel it, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lance smiled even brighter. He didn't know that he had missed so many things, "Because of this, I should keep the copyright of these works. At least, my new company won't start off. Nothing. I think it's going to be a good start."

George's loose breath was stuck in his throat, he didn't know whether to spit it out or swallow it, "No!" A resolute objection blurted out, shocking the sky, making the atmosphere stiffen involuntarily.

It can be seen from George's fierce reaction that Ryan is determined to win the adaptation copyright of these works in Lance's hands, but why? Is it because Ryan has absolute confidence in Lance's vision—even though he never wants to admit it, he hopes these works will be successful, so he hopes to grab it; or is it because Ryan hopes to kill Lance and cut off Lance All rising hopes?

Lance recalled it carefully, but unfortunately his impression of those works is still very vague, so the reason is that the latter is more likely.

It seems that the alliance behind George and Ryan is far earlier than imagined, and far deeper than imagined. If Lance remembers correctly, "Good Night, Good Luck" was produced and distributed by Diorama Films. In the last life, Lance missed too much, this time, he has to see clearly.

Immediately, George also realized that his reaction was a little too aggressive. He didn't even have a moment to hesitate, and directly swallowed the breath stuck in his throat, and then expressed his surprise slightly exaggeratedly, revealing A "you're crazy" expression, "Are you sure? That's just the adaptation copyright of several South American and African novels, and it's of no use to you at all!"

Fiction from South America and Africa?

Lance nodded slightly in his heart. At the moment in 2002, Hollywood's adaptation of novels was far from reaching its peak. There were still many novels in the United States that had not been adapted, let alone overseas markets. It's no wonder that when I browsed through the previous life, I felt that they were all very strange names.

So, in this way, Ryan is determined to win these copyrights, and he really wants to cut off all of Lance's livelihoods. So, what role did George play in the process of chasing Lance fiercely?

"Could it be that you plan to start a new company in Africa?" George raised his hands, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com expressed the sense of absurdity with all body movements, "Besides, you continue to wrestle with Ryan and the others for the adaptation rights of several Spanish novels? You know they won't let go easily, they will continue Harass you, keep suppressing you, keep pestering you, and wipe out your remaining capital bit by bit. You know, this is definitely not a good sign for a new company. In the early stage of the development of a new company, This trouble is the last thing you need."

After George finished speaking, Lance didn't speak, which made George a little uncomfortable, as if the speech just now was just nonsense. The short silence made the atmosphere gradually awkward. George had to cough twice, patted Lance's arm, and said sincerely, "Lance, I am your friend, and I stand by you unconditionally. For your sake unconditionally, I hope more than anyone else that you defeat those scumbags in an upright manner. I only hope that you will have nothing to do with them from now on, stop being harassed by them, and really start over!"

George is really an excellent speaker. He knows how to use the most correct language to stir up emotions, and he also knows how to use the most appropriate entry point to persuade the other party.

Lance had always known this, but today had a very different experience. This time, Lance didn't keep George waiting for a long time, he smiled lightly, that smile was shining brightly under the sun, as if he could see the sparkle in the blue eyes, it was so wonderful that all the words lost their color , "Of course, you are right!"

Lance's words made George's hanging heart finally fall back into his stomach, and then he also laughed.
