"You know, Kate, my full name is Famick Berman Jensen, actually, my nickname is Fongsie, my parents call me that, but Eric keeps calling me Famy, and I couldn't help but help him correct it the other day, and then he said he was right, and he came up with a lot of reasons, which was really funny, hehe. ”

Kathryn Bigelow glanced at the two men, then leaned over to Famick Jensen: "He's just twenty years old, and it's inevitable to be willful." ”

"Little bastards are pretty much the same," said Famick Jensen in a tone of intimacy characteristic of a couple.

Kathryn Bigelow whispered, "Actually, Jim is the same, both of them are paranoid. ”

"Hey, Famy, I have 1.5 hearing in both ears, don't think I can't hear," Eric who was discussing special effects with Cameron suddenly raised his head and gave Famick Jensen a threatening look, and Cameron also looked up at his wife with a wicked smile on his lips.

Kathryn Bigelow glared back dissatisfied: "Today was supposed to be discussing the matter of "Shocking Point", you two are wasting my time now, I didn't say anything, what qualifications do you have to express dissatisfaction?"

Eric looked at his watch, it was already a quarter past ten, and the Cameron couple came over at nine o'clock, and now more than an hour has passed, Cameron also realized this, and said reluctantly: "Eric, can you show me the scripts of those disaster movies, and then you can go and discuss the movie with Kate." ”

"Of course," Eric said, opening the safe. took out the scripts of several movies such as "Tornado" and handed it to Cameron: "I don't plan to direct all these movies myself. You take a look. If you are interested, you may be able to choose one to direct in person. ”

Cameron nodded noncommittally, although he was very interested in the ideas of these films, but whether they could cooperate in the end depended on the quality of the script and the conditions offered by Eric. Because of the incident of "Piranha 2" back then, Cameron hated others very much for criticizing the movies he directed, and Eric is obviously also a guy with a strong desire to control, if Eric doesn't give him enough control. Cameron will not take on the project even if he is interested.

After taking Eric's script, Cameron couldn't wait to open the top "Tornado" and read it, and soon entered the plot.

Eric came to the couch, sat down next to Famick Jensen, and said to Catherine Bigelow on the other side, "Ms. Bigelow, show me the script for 'Shock.'" ”

Kathryn Bigelow took out the script for "Shocking Point" from the satchel she had been carrying with her and handed it over, along with a seven- or eight-page subbook: "The top is the script, and the following is the budget that Jim and I have made these days, about 20 million US dollars." ”

The $20 million budget is already very conservative for this project. However, Catherine Bigelow's tone was tinged with a hint of unconfidence. The few films she directed before were only a small cost of two or three million.

Eric put the budget table aside and flipped through the script to read it.

The male protagonist is a man named Johnny Utah, a promising football player who had to give up his profession because of a knee injury, and became an FBI detective after graduating from the police academy.

Eric found the premise very interesting, as Catherine Bigelow's preferred actor was Keanu Reeves. In reality, Keanu Reeves was originally a promising hockey player, but he also suffered a knee injury and finally changed careers to become an actor.

There was a group of crazy bank robbers in Los Angeles, who wore the masks of the faces of previous presidents of the United States, and robbed more than 20 banks in a row, but because these people were very restrained, they did not covet the bank's vault, but in a short period of 90 seconds, they swept away the cash in the bank counter and left in a hurry, the means were clean and neat, leaving not too many traces, so they frequently succeeded, and the FBI was helpless about it.

Young and passionate, Johnny Utah convinces his boss, Angelo Pappas, an old FBI fritter who is depressed and always immersed in the glory of the past, and the two embark on a journey to hunt down this group of crazy fugitives.

In the past more than 20 robberies, Angelo Pappas locked the identity of the robbers on a group of surfers, in order to get close to the surfers in La Digo Beach, Los Angeles, Johnny Utah began to learn to surf, and made up the identity of a father and mother to get close to the beautiful surf coach Tyler Dickert, the two developed a relationship at the same time, Johnny Tongguò Taylor met the crazy surfer Botty, Johnny soon found out that Bowty and his companions were likely to be the group of bank robbers, and Guò finally determined the whereabouts of Bowty.

However, Bowty and his partner escaped from Johnny and Angelo in the process of robbing another bank, and the identity of Johnny FBI agent was revealed.

Because he didn't leave enough evidence, Johnny couldn't directly arrest Bowty and the others, and after consulting with his companions, Bowty kidnapped Johnny's girlfriend Taylor and threatened Johnny to do what he said.

Bowty takes Johnny to the last bank robbery and skydives together, and in the end, Johnny's deep madness is stimulated, and he resonates with Bowty. During the final capture, Johnny uncuffed Bowty's hands and allowed Bowty to step on his surfboard to run to Australia's once-in-a-50-year astronomical tide, throwing his FBI agent badge into the sea.

Although many of the points in the script seem a bit far-fetched, overall, it is a story of self-pursuit.

Johnny Utah thought that his goal was to become a top FBI agent, so he could do whatever it took to find out that his parents were dead in order to get close to Taylor without pressure, but in the end, Johnny found that becoming an FBI elite was not what he wanted, and that would only make him a person like his boss Angelo Pappas, Angelo was an FBI elite, in order to explore the use of a certain essential oil left behind by the soles of the robbers, Angelo Pappas studied hundreds of essential oils, and even became an expert in this area, but he was still a frustrated person who was difficult to promote, on the contrary, colleagues who are younger than him and mediocre than him are riding on his head one by one.
