Chapter 30 Must be co-signed

Product: Thank you to the book friends, the month of the song has a strong heart, and the cachexia "ticket is a city to thank the book friend Hei Yao Shili. Large tipping.

Michael Hilleton was silent for a long time, Fang Mingyuan's evaluation of him could be said to be to the point, which made him feel a kind of pleasure in meeting a confidant in the world, and Fang Mingyuan had clearly stated the reason why he wanted to give up this subject to himself, and he had to admit that he really felt difficult to refuse.

"Fang, let's do it, you tell me this story of yours first, if I'm really interested. Then we might as well co-author! Michael Clayton finally decided. Yes! Fang Mingyuan shouted in his heart. After turning around in such a big circle, and racking his brains to say so many words, his final goal. That's not all. In fact, before he came, he had already thought about it, and it was nothing if he couldn't get a co-authorship. As long as you get the right to adapt its film and television, when the time comes, there will naturally be American film companies coming to your door. It's a cash cow, and it's not just a huge profit to be taken out of it. It is also a rare opportunity to expand one's influence in the United States.

And after watching the three movies of "Sister Rocky Park" repeatedly in his previous life, and having the writing experience of this life, he has considerable confidence that Michael Clayton's writing will be of some help. In this case, it is not completely advantageous to him.

"I don't think you're going to have to make that offer. If you do decide to go with this theme, I will be satisfied with the fact that I have a part of the credit in the preface. Fang Mingyuan smiled calmly, "I believe you should be concerned about cloning jishu, have you ever thought about writing a book as a theme?" "Cloning can be said to be the most cutting-edge research project in the scientific community at the beginning of the JOVO era. This jishu refers to the asexual reproduction of organisms through somatic cells, and populations of offspring individuals formed by asexual reproduction that are identical to each other. It is usually a process in which biological jishu produces offspring with exactly the same genes as the original individual by asexual reproduction.

Michael Clayton's eyes lit up immediately, but he didn't say much, but nodded slightly, motioning for Fang Mingyuan to continue. Fang Mingyuan already knew in his heart that it seemed that it was not too late for him to come, Michael Clayton may have already started writing, but it seemed that it would take a lot of time before the book was written.

Fang Mingyuan also accidentally remembered when he was in Hong Kong that when the influence of Western films officially invaded the Hong Kong film market, later generations had different opinions and insisted on their own words. But one of the more recognized statements is that "Sister Luo Ji Park" landed in the Hong Kong film market. Let the residents of Hong Kong realize what it means to make a big scene. After the visual shock brought by the performance of "Sister Age Park", Hong Kong citizens have lost interest in the farcical movies of Hong Kong's local film companies. The appearance of "Jurassic Park". It can be said that it sounded the first clarion call for the decline of Hong Kong films.

How much truth this statement had, this was not what Fang Mingyuan cared about, but he suddenly realized how he could forget this event that left too much impression on him in his previous life. And he still remembers that the eponymous name of "Sister Rocky Park", which is also the source of the adaptation of the script, was released in the United States this year. If it was other writers, Fang Mingyuan wouldn't be moved, although it was published in the nineties, but how many years it had been saved in the hands of the author before, who would know? But Michael Clayton, as a well-known best-selling author in the United States, can be said to be like those American booksellers, like flies that see stinky meat, pay attention to his wind and grass here. Maybe even yesterday Michael Clayton finished the book, and today a bookseller will come to the door waving a check.

Now that it was the beginning of the year, he also deliberately paid attention to the book market in the United States, and found that there was no news about the sister Luo Ji Park River, so he decided to give it a try. If he succeeds, then the benefits he can reap are simply too much.

"That's what I thought, from some sources. I have a very preliminary understanding of cloning jishu, maybe there is something wrong, and please don't laugh at me. Fang Mingyuan's heart, which was originally hanging in his throat, had already let go of most of it.

"Cloning jishu, I think, can also be called asexual reproduction, there is no need for male and female mating, there is no need for sperm and egg combination, just extract a single cell from the animal, use artificial methods to cultivate it into an embryo, and then implant the embryo into the female animal, you can give birth to a new individual. This cloned animal is cultured in single cells. The success of cloning jishu, which has exactly the same characteristics as a single-cell donor, has been called "a historic event, a scientific feat of science." If cloned jishu is applied to animal husbandry production, it will bring about a fundamental change in the cultivation and reproduction of excellent livestock breeds. If the cloned jishu is used for gene therapy research, it is very likely to overcome those serious diseases such as cancer and AIDS that threaten human life and health. Some people even believe that the cloning of Jishu can be compared to the advent of the atomic bomb back then. I have the same view on this point, and it is indeed comparable to the appearance of the atomic bomb back then, because they may have opened Pandora's box! Fang Mingyuan was categorical.

Michael Clayton listened attentively, nodding his head from time to time. For Fang Mingyuan, he felt that he needed to treat him as a peer, a friend who communicated on an equal footing, and could not be confused by his age. Cloning jishu, the cutting-edge technology of this shijie scientific research, a teenager from an ancient and closed ancient country in the East, is actually able to understand it so thoroughly, it is really too difficult.

"Once the cloned jishu is abused, the harm it brings is also extremely amazing, such as cloning people." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "But the theme of human cloning is something that all people of insight can think of, and the consequences it brings are also something that everyone can realize, and its impact on the audience is relatively limited." So I think we might as well think about this from a different angle. For example, clone ancient dinosaurs, Prussian crocodiles, and even ancient dinosaurs! Let them make a big fuss in the movie. ”

Michael Clayton knew what Fang Mingyuan said about Dinophobia and Prussian crocodiles. The dinosaur is an extinct large crocodile belonging to the superfamily Alligator, which lived on the eastern coast of North America during the late Cretaceous period. Dinosaur is the most pointed crocodile in the history of the book, the fine concave said Xunshan, the most pointed crocodile may be a hot dragon as a few, science floated near the fossil of the dinosaur, and also found many duck-billed dragon skeleton fossils, there are still dinosaur tooth marks left, you must know that the herbivorous duck-billed dragon can be more than a meter tall. It is speculated that the weight can reach pure, which is twice that of a dire crocodile. However, it is calling. 10,000 years ago, when these huge duck-billed dragons came to the shore of the swamp to find water to drink, they were still bitten to the ground by a dinosaur much smaller than themselves, and they were swallowed alive!

The Prussian crocodile can be called the crocodile in the "king of defeat", its temperament is violent, the power is endless, according to the calculations of scientists, its length can reach the old meter, the body width of the knife meter. Weighs up to a ton. It is almost 3 times the weight of a dire crocodile. No other predator can match it, and their opponents are their own kind.

Fang Mingyuan guessed correctly, Michael Clayton is indeed still writing "Sister Rocky Park", and has written about 100,000 words. And the reason why he knows so well about the dinosaur and the Pruss crocodile is because he also considered whether to use the crocodile as the protagonist. Although these two ancient giant crocodiles are not the ancestors of modern crocodiles, but can only be said to be their close relatives, compared with ancient dinosaurs, it seems that the giant crocodile with a reference is easier for the audience to imagine.

"But after I think about it repeatedly, I think it seems that the protagonist uses ancient dinosaurs, which seems to attract everyone's attention more. Moreover, there were many kinds of dinosaurs in ancient times, so there will be more choices in them. Of course. Personally, I think a lot of people must have been to the Paleontological Museum when they were kids, and those dinosaur fossils in it. Especially the Tyrannosaurus rex. They must have given them an impression that they will never forget, and they will be more interested in these creatures as the protagonists. And I think too. From the point of view of future films. The pursuit on land will definitely be more intense, more dangerous than in the water, and it will definitely be more attractive. So I decided to clone the dinosaurs."

Michael Clayton's surprise at this time can be said to be indescribable, if it weren't for the fact that he was already an old man who was about to turn half a hundred years old at this time, I am afraid he would have already screamed. Fang Mingyuan's analysis can be said to coincide with his original thoughts. The reason why he chose dinosaurs over ancient giant crocodiles can be said to be based on these reasons.

"Did he read my outline?" Michael Clayton said in his heart. But he immediately dismissed the idea. Close. He didn't mention it to anyone, but it was all the outline or the more than 100,000 words that had been written. He didn't let anyone see it. Fang Mingyuan. It is even more impossible for a Chinese teenager to do this. "So, can you tell me how you plan to get the dinosaur cells for the characters in the book?" Michael Clayton asked solemnly. This is the crux of the book, and if it is not reasonable for the reader to agree with this reason, then the reasonableness of the whole story is undoubtedly inferior.

Fang Mingyuan shrugged and said: "Science is all-encompassing, isn't this a theory that many people have been promoting, maybe those scientists can extract it from dinosaur fossils?" But. I'd have thought of one. Reason. Ancient times. The surface of the earth is covered with large areas of forests. In the middle of summer, when these trees are exposed to the sun, many of them will flow resin, and in these resins, you will often find some small creatures at that time, we call this kind of thing amber. I thought, there are blood-sucking creatures like mosquitoes in Shijie today, so in ancient times, there should have been similar creatures, or mosquitoes. We can imagine such a scene, in the ancient hot season, the scorching sun at noon caused those dinosaurs to lurk in the shade of trees and water sources, waiting for the hardest time of the day to pass. A sharp-beaked mosquito has just flown up from the snout of a dinosaur, and there, it has a full meal. Mosquitoes flew freely, and finally chose a meadow under a large tree as their resting place. It's a pity that just when it landed on its feet. A drop of resin fell from the sky, enveloping it in it. It struggled desperately, but before it could get out, a few drops of resin fell, enveloping it completely. And finally fell on the surface. Time passed, and the earth changed here, and the sea became a mulberry field, and it just lay quietly in the ground until one day, when it was discovered by chance. You say. Can the blood in its stomach that has not yet had time to digest be extracted from the cells needed to clone the dinosaurs? ”

With Fang Mingyuan's colorful description, Michael Clayton had already opened his mouth in surprise.

If Fang Mingyuan stood in front of him at this time, he would definitely be able to see his back molars. The scene was much the same as he had in mind, and in more detail, almost like the plot of a movie. He suddenly remembered that among the things he had just watched, it seemed that there were three other movie scripts that had done well at the box office in Hong Kong. Obviously, this eighty percent describes this process with the plot of the movie in mind.

Fang Mingyuan continued, the more Michael Clayton listened, the more surprised he became, the two of them generally maintained the same line of thought, of course this is for sure, Fang Mingyuan not only watched movies in his previous life, but also read Zeben of "Sister Rocky Park". But in the handling of details, Fang Mingyuan is different from him. And there is obviously a tendency to move closer to the movie script. The most important point is that the story that Fang Mingyuan said is longer than his outline. Michael Clayton roughly estimated that there would be two more copies.

Fang Mingyuan, who was talking endlessly, finally finished speaking, "Myself." The study was silent.

Michael Clayton held his head in his hands, his arms resting on his desk, lost in thought. Fang Mingyuan didn't bother him, just waited quietly. Things have come to this point, he has exhausted his hole cards, and what kind of result is up to Michael Clayton's choice.

After a long time, Michael Clayton raised his head, looked directly into Fang Mingyuan's eyes and said, "I don't know that you Weishenme gave up writing this story yourself, judging from your previous works, I think you have enough ability to write it well." But if you insist that I write the story, then you have to co-sign it! Otherwise, nothing to talk about! I'd rather give up on this work entirely! ”
