A year ago, a month after the death of Wang Jie's parents, Wang Jie asked Jim, the old butler, to find George Lucas, who had just finished filming "American Painting", with a new novel published by Bantam Books.

The novel is adapted from a movie script stored in a supercomputer brought by Wang Jie from his previous life, and its name is "Star Wars".

George Lucas couldn't imagine it when he got the novel and read it, although the novel was much more detailed and grandiose, and the structure was very clear, but the general context was almost the same as the specific content of the film he had just conceived and expected to shoot. George Lucas inquired carefully about the elder Jim, and when he learned that the author of the book was a boy who was not yet five years old, his expression suddenly became wonderful. After repeatedly confirming that the possibility of plagiarism was ruled out, George Lucas signed his name on the director's contract, and began the preliminary work on the film in Fannoos, California, according to the advice that Wang Jie asked the housekeeper Jim Sr. to relay.

When Wang Jie arrived at his destination, he was just in time for the crew to set up an indoor studio, and the boy saw George Lucas roaring loudly with a beard on his face from a distance.

"Hello Mr. George Lucas!" Wang Jie gentlemanly stretched out his little hand.

"Hello, nice to meet you. George Lucas also reached out and shook the boy's hand lightly, his hand was a little greasy from the fact that he had just modified a few ship models.

"My name is William, King Rothschild, you can call me William, my father who died just a year ago was a Chinese-American, and my mother who died together was British. I'm here today to talk to you about the filming of the film, and if you need anything, just say that I have $20 million for this film, which is not enough to add. ”

George Lucas couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard the four words Rothschild, as a member of the Jewish family, he knew the energy of this surname, originally when he first met, he saw the handsome boy who looked like an oriental yellow race and was a little disdainful, when he heard Wang Jie introduce his parents, and then carefully observed that the boy had obvious Jewish characteristics in addition to his skin color, he suddenly became cordial.

"I am so sorry for the death of your parents, you can call me George, William Jr. George Lucas's tone was much kinder, but he immediately said with a heavy heart: "Now we still lack a lot of professional special effects artists, and we still need to buy a number of advanced computers and related equipment. ”

"What equipment do you want to purchase, make a specific bill, if there is no accident, I will ask Grandpa Jim to allocate funds to you, Grandpa Jim, how many shares of Twentieth Century Focus do we have?" Wang Jie turned his gaze to the old butler and asked.

"Master William, there is about 38.5% of the shares left over by your parents and the recent shares you asked me to acquire from a few minority shareholders. Old Jim replied.

"You go negotiate with Alain Ryder Jr., he's going to split up the special effects department and sell it anyway, and we'll buy it at market price. After Wang Jie finished instructing the old housekeeper, he said to George Lucas: "When I take over the Fox special effects department, I will set up a professional special effects company, George, you will be the CEO, I will give you 30% of the shares, and the name of the company will be Industrial Light & Magic!"

George Lucas was overjoyed to hear the boy's story, and was very satisfied with Wang Jie's arrangement and generosity, although he was surprised by the boy's demonic nature, he was also happy that such a precocious boy appeared in the Jewish people (Jews often divide whether a person is Jewish or not is often based on his mother's blood), "William, Jr., I think we should have a special film company to specifically arrange the filming and distribution of Star Wars. ”

Wang Jie pretended to ponder for a while and said: "George, I heard that you established a film company in San Francisco, California in 1971, called Lucasfilm, so let's do it, I will invest in Lucasfilm with 20 million US dollars plus this "Star Wars", and I will let Grandpa Jim negotiate with you on specific issues." ”

Wang Jie and George Lucas talked for more than an hour about other issues with the movie "Star Wars" before leaving.

On the way back, the housekeeper Old Jim said complainingly: "Master William, you are really too generous, and the special effects company you give George Lucas 30% of the shares is too much, which is completely unnecessary." ”

"Professional things need professionals to manage, Lucas is a special effects genius, there is no way to tie this person up if the shares are less, and don't think about how much it can make in the next ten or even twenty years after the establishment of the special effects company Industrial Light and Magic. Wang Jie explained and continued: "You try to talk about the issue of investing in Lucasfilm Grandpa Jim, I just gave a generous time, I believe Lucas will not be too careful, you try to talk about it, including the controlling stake to get as many shares as possible, this is a cornucopia." In the future, except for financial problems, Lucas will try to focus on the others, and we will not interfere too much in the filming of the film. ”

"Okay, Master William, I'll do my best to get everything done. The old butler replied, and after a moment of silence, old Jim asked again, "Young master, are you done with the new book you want to publish?" If it is finished, I will let Bantam Books publish it as soon as possible. ”

The boy looked at the few white clouds outside the car window, and replied in a slightly deep tone: "It's finished, and the title of the book will be Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone when it is typeset!"
