The entire flight time from Los Angeles to Boston is six hours, while New York to Dr. is only a moment.

Before Chen Tian's plane had taken off too far, Christopher Waltz had already arrived in Boston.

He had already received the script from Chen Tian, and he still remembered the moment when he was stopped by Chen Tian after performing the drama on Broadway that day.

The opportunity came so suddenly, although he was persuaded by Chen Tian at that time, he still couldn't help but worry that Chen Tian would forget about it.

As time went on, he also told himself again and again in his heart not to care too much.

He himself deliberately forced himself to forget Chen Tian's invitation, and still starred in the drama as seriously as before, earning a meager remuneration every day.

It wasn't until a week ago, when he received the email of the script of "This Man from Earth", that he was truly sure that Chen Tian had not forgotten.

He still remembers how he felt when he saw that the email was titled a script, and Waltz clicked on it with an irrepressible feeling.

However, when he sees the beginning of the play, when the hero tells his colleagues that he is from before the 140th century, Waltz's liking for the play suddenly drops to the bottom.

After the end, he read it completely with the idea of watching it, but the more he watched it, the more shocked he became, until he was completely convinced by the script at the end of the day.

He believes that at least 90 percent of the people will scold the film at the beginning of the film for how ridiculous it is.

After getting the script, I carefully read the original Jerome Bixby's "ItsaGoodLife" at the suggestion of Chen Tian.

Every day back from the theater, Waltz practiced in front of the mirror.

looked at himself in the mirror, and told himself again and again that he was John in the script. Within a week, Waltz had memorized the script by heart.

After practicing in front of the mirror. Walz began to pull his wife to practice.

Waltz's wife was at one point opposed to such an enchanting exercise. But in the end, he still found two hours a day to practice with Waltz.

Yesterday, when he was practicing, he received a call from Chen Tian, and after learning that the machine was turned on early, Waltz was as excited as a 12-year-old child, and he didn't look like a 47-year-old middle-aged man at all.

"I'll work hard and never let you suffer with me again!"

Waltz remembered the words he had said yesterday as he held himself in tears and looked at the Boston airport behind him, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists.

At this moment, Chen Tian was still on the plane to Boston, thinking about the filming of "This Man Earth".

It is difficult to make many breakthroughs in the shooting technique of "one shot, one film". It will give people the feeling of drama somewhat.

At this point, Waltz should be able to quickly adapt to the transition from drama to film, but Chen Tian's film does not care about the scene but the plot.

A meeting-style plot built with questions and answers, and this plot is the biggest innovation and highlight of the whole film.

In fact, every actor in the original film performed very well, but Chen Tian still wanted to go to this university with the longest history in the United States and a well-known university in the world.

Is there an actor who is better than the original film, if not, then Chen Tian will still look for actors according to the original film.

Six hours later, Chen Tian arrived at the Boston airport, and the time had reached 5 p.m.

When he walked out of the exit of the plane, Chen Tian felt a little hungry.

He and Waltz met at eight o'clock in the evening at the Harvard Library. Looking at the time on his phone, Chen Tian was about to go around downtown Boston.

Cambridge, where Harvard University is located, is a city adjacent to Boston, just across the Charles River from downtown Boston.

If you stand on this side of the river, you can see the other side. And in the city of Cambridge, it not only has Harvard, but also another world-famous university, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Chen Tian arrived in Boston for the first time, both before and after the crossing, and since directing the film, Chen Tian seems to have changed his mentality towards the scenery all of a sudden.

It seems that every moment and scene around him may bring him different feelings.

Like ordinary people coming and going, Chen Tian took the Boston subway.

Although Chen Tian's exposure has grown rapidly and is easier to identify than ordinary Asians, Chen Tian, who is dressed ordinarily, looks like an ordinary Asian and does not attract the attention of others.

After the subway radio came out, after the Chinatown station arrived, Chen got off the subway.

When I walked out of the subway entrance, I saw the entrance of Chinatown standing not far away.

Boston Chinatown is the only Chinatown in New England and the fourth largest in North America, located in the heart of Boston.

After putting his luggage away at a hotel near Chinatown, Chen Tian came to Chinatown.

Growing up in Chinatown, Los Angeles, I seem to have a sense of closeness when I look at the entrance of Chinatown in front of me at this moment.

The four big characters on the archway of the main entrance of Chinatown: "The world is for the public", it seems to be full of righteousness, and it seems that looking at the words can imagine the scene where Mr. Sun Wen wrote these four words at that time.

Walking through the archway, on the reverse side of the archway is Jiang Zhongzheng's Mobao "Etiquette, Righteousness and Honesty", which has almost 10,000 Chinese people in this Chinatown, and almost 100,000 Chinese settled in the entire Greater Boston area.

Walking on the streets of Chinatown, looking at the tourists and the Chinese specialty shops lining the streets, it is like being in Los Angeles Chinatown.

With his stomach growling, Chen Tian gave up his plan to continue the tour, and saw a restaurant called "Asian Flavor" not far away.

The restaurant is a medium-sized Chinese restaurant, today is the weekend, the business of the restaurant seems to be very good, the restaurant that can accommodate almost 100 people sits for about fifty or sixty people.

A middle-aged woman is wiping a table in a restaurant, and a middle-aged man is behind the counter.

"Welcome, sir, what do you want to eat?" the middle-aged man asked with a smile as he looked at Chen Tian, who was also Asian.

Chen Tian looked at the large menu in Chinese and English posted high on the wall, looked at it twice and said in Chinese: "Give me a Yangchun noodle and a Yangzhou fried rice." ”

And many people in the restaurant are also eating Yangzhou fried rice. It's similar to Chinatown in Los Angeles.

In the United States, many people like Yangzhou fried rice. Although it is not as famous as California fried rice. The biggest American fan of Yangzhou fried rice is undoubtedly the family of former President Nixon.

Hearing Chen Tian's Chinese, the middle-aged man seemed to smile more happily, and also responded to Chen Tian in Chinese.

"It looks like something familiar to you. The middle-aged woman came over and stuck it on Chen Tian's table, looked at Chen Tian and said.

"Really?" Chen Tian smiled, he didn't say that he was a director everywhere, "Eldest sister, this is fate." ”

The speed was very fast, and a bowl of Yangchun noodles and a Yangzhou fried rice were delivered to the table.

For Chen Tian. One person eats two servings just about to be full.

I looked at my phone, it was almost six o'clock, and I could rush to Harvard before eight o'clock after eating.

Eat noodles first, then eat, this is Chen Tian's habit.

The taste of the noodles was very good, and just as Chen Tian was eating the noodles, a woman walked behind the counter.

Chen Tian looked at the woman, she may be about the same age as him, she looks very ordinary and slightly fat, but her appearance is typical Asian, more precisely, the characteristics of Chinese people.

The woman appears to be the daughter of the restaurant couple. Talking to a middle-aged man about something.

Chen Tian continued to eat the noodles and finished eliminating the noodles in the bowl. Chen Tian began to eat fried rice.

A middle-aged man walked in, Chen Tian didn't care, after all, there were too many people coming and going in this restaurant, just a glance and continued to eat.

"Zuckerberg, why are you here!"

grew up in the United States, but this surname Chen Tian has rarely been contacted.

The most familiar is Mark Zuckerberg, who is known as the "second Gates" computer genius who created Facebook.

Therefore, Chen Tian subconsciously raised his head, and the face of the white man who walked in was completely imprinted in Chen Tian's eyes.

He has short hair with natural curls, a long face with mostly white features and red spots, a Nike gray long sleeve on the top and long pants on the bottom.

Compared with most white people, the man in front of him looked a little thin.

And this man is the famous Mark Zuckerberg in later generations, Chen Tian never imagined that he would meet him in Chinatown.

"WASN'T OCTOBER 2003 A FEW MONTHS BEFORE FACEBOOK WAS BORN?"

This idea turned into Chen Tian's mind, although Chen Tian almost didn't care about things outside the movie, he didn't have no hobbies or completely ignored things outside the window.

BUT IF IT WEREN'T FOR MEETING MARK ZUCKERBERG HERE AT THIS MOMENT, MAYBE CHEN TIAN WOULDN'T HAVE THOUGHT OF FACEBOOK AT ALL FOR A WHILE.

HOW TERRIFYING FACEBOOK IS, CHEN TIAN NATURALLY KNOWS IT.

Before the crossing, USC also invited Mark Zuckerberg to give a speech, and Chen Tian remembers Mark Zuckerberg's entrepreneurial journey very clearly.

In less than four years, Mark Zuckerberg became a $15 billion super-rich, and Mark Zuckerberg was only 24 years old at that time.

"Priscilla, I'd like to invite you to tonight's ball!" said Mark Zuckerberg, who seemed a little embarrassed.

"Priscilla?"

Listening to Mark Zuckerberg's words, Chen Tian immediately remembered that this name was not Priscilla Chen, the wife of Mark Zuckerberg who had been in love for nine years and finally entered the marriage hall?

And isn't his father-in-law's restaurant called Asian flavor? Thinking of this, Chen Tian couldn't help but laugh.

He could never have imagined that the store he walked into casually would be the restaurant owned by Mark Zuckerberg's future father-in-law.

Even more coincidentally, I happened to meet Mark Zuckerberg.

For Chen Tian, he naturally wants to shoot those super blockbusters with an investment of hundreds of millions after his skills are mature.

Wanting to invest money in filming is a big problem, otherwise he wouldn't have filmed "Buried Alive" in the first place.

Although he still has almost 50 million in his hands today, as David Ellison said, 50 million is nothing in the face of big investment.

The man in front of him is Mark Zuckerberg, who also knows about the early days of Facebook.

Because of the large number of photos obtained by hackers, Facemash caused a contrast fever, or reported to Harvard's server to be paralyzed, and was eventually forced to take it off the shelves because of the infringement of portrait rights.

Later, with the help of others, the program was redeveloped and named Facebook. WITHOUT THE FUNDING OF THOSE TWO MEN, PERHAPS FACEBOOK WOULD HAVE BEEN REBORN.

But Chen Tian is not mistaken. Facebook hasn't appeared at the moment. Mark Zuckerberg may have only one idea that hasn't taken shape yet.

If you work with Mark Zuckerberg, you don't have to worry about future funding at all.

Thinking of this, Chen Tian's eyes became hot when he looked at Mark Zuckerberg.

"It's just a ball, but everybody needs a dance partner, so Priscilla, just promise me!" Mark Zuckerberg invited.

At least it didn't seem like the two had become boyfriend and girlfriend, and Chen Tian remembered that he himself said that he met Priscilla Chen while waiting in line for the toilet at a party.

Mark Zuckerberg sent her home after the party, and the two met until they became boyfriend and girlfriend and entered the marriage hall.

Priscilla Chan nodded in agreement. Mark Zuckerberg looked happy: "I'm here to pick you up at nine o'clock in the evening at the school ballroom. ”

Chen Tianzheng is looking for a topic, and he can't rush up and say that your name is Mark Zuckerberg.

Hearing the ball, Chen Tian thought of a way.

"Excuse me, may I ask if there are any restrictions on the prom, and do Harvard students have to attend?"

Mark Zuckerberg, who was about to leave, looked at Chen Tian, and he felt that Chen Tian was a little familiar at first glance, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"There are restrictions, Harvard students, or people who are invited. But it's mostly our classmates, are you interested in it?"

Chen Tian shrugged: "It's a pity. I'm from Los Angeles and it's my first time here, and I want to get a taste of Harvard, and I love the prom, so I ......"

Mark Zuckerberg looked at Chen Tian, although Chen Tian graduated from school for four months, he was still very young, and he felt like a college student: "Man, if you really want to go, maybe I can invite you to go."

But you have to find a dance partner, you can't get in without one. ”

"Okay, that's a tough question for me, so forget it, but can I make a friend? I should have spent the last three or four days at Harvard. ”

"Of course, I can be your guide. Mark Zuckerberg is very enthusiastic, which makes it easier for Chen Tian to get in touch at a deeper level, and it doesn't seem too abrupt at first.

"I'd like to ask some of the top professors of psychology and sociology, including history, at Harvard, and I'd like to hear about it. ”

"That's fine, I'll help you when I get back to school, man, I don't know what your name is, my name is Mark Zuckerberg. ”

"Mark Zuckerberg? The name seems to be exactly the same as the name of a genius programmer I saw on the news, and you were the one who was recruited by Microsoft and AOL?"

Mark Zuckerberg also knew that after graduating from high school, he was in the news because Microsoft and AOL threw an olive branch to him at the same time, but he didn't expect Chen Tian to know, after all, nearly a year and a half have passed.

"I didn't expect you to know me, this is just the past, and I will move towards a higher goal. ”

Priscilla Chan also sat down: "This shows that you are very famous." ”

After finishing speaking, Priscilla Chen looked at Chen Tian: "But I think you are very much like a person, are you Justin Chen?"

"Yes, Justin Chen, Director Marvel, I just thought he was very similar. Mark Zuckerberg also remembered when Priscilla Chan reminded him.

He had just gone to the theater yesterday at the instigation of his roommate, and he wanted to invite Priscilla Chan to join him, but he gave up the invitation after his roommate handed him the newspaper and read the news in the newspaper.

At that time, the newspaper had a photo of Chen Tian and a detailed introduction.

Chen Tian laughed: "Don't look at me with such and such eyes, I'm not a big director." ”

Priscilla Chan covered her mouth: "Oh my gosh, I didn't expect to run into you at my restaurant, if you let our school feminist club know about you, they will go crazy."

I think I'm just a phone call away, and you'll be able to go to the dance tonight, and they're sure to have a lot of them choose to kick out their partners. ”

"Justin, did you come to Harvard to film? Do you want to film here? I went to the theater yesterday, how did you do it, that image made me feel ......" Mark Zuckerberg spread his hands, trying to express itself.

"Your expression tells me that what I did was done, and of course you might scold me at that moment. Chen Tian responded with a smile.

The age difference between the three people was not too big, and the young people started talking at once.

However, the two of them were obviously more interested in Chen Tian's story, and Chen Tian was also happy to tell it, and the relationship between the three of them suddenly became closer.

At half past seven, Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan wanted to show Chen Tian on a tour of Harvard.

At 7:50, Chen Tian was accompanied by the two of them to the famous Widner Library of Harvard University.

There are nearly 100 libraries on the campus of Harvard University, large and small, divided into categories.

Each museum has its own irreplaceable characteristics, which fully demonstrates Harvard's decentralized system.

Different libraries have different collections, cater to different scholars, focus on different areas, and are funded from different sources.

He and Waltz agreed to be here, and the Widner Library is Harvard's largest and largest library for social sciences and humanities research.

With a collection of 3.45 million books on national and foreign history, economics, language, literature, and other documents, Waltz needed to study some of the historical materials mentioned in the play.

"Justin, the Widener Library doesn't usually accept anyone else, so if you're going to get in, maybe I can help you ask. Mark Zuckerberg said.

Chen Tianlai had only checked the information before, but he didn't expect that outsiders could not enter casually.

At this time, Waltz also walked down the stairs and saw Chen Tian: "Justin, you are here, but you can't go inside." ”

At this moment, students came in and out one after another.

Just as Mark Zuckerberg was about to go up to help Chen Tian ask, a figure rang out from behind.

Mark Zuckerberg turned to look at the person who stopped him, and shouted in some surprise: "Sister Natalie, what a coincidence!"

Chen Tian turned to look at the person who came, stunned for a moment, because he didn't expect that the Natalie senior sister in Mark Zuckerberg's mouth turned out to be superstar Natalie Portman. (To be continued......)
