"Mr. Lucas, can you sign my name?" At that moment, Adam and Scott ran back and immediately waved the poster in their hands. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Who are you?" said Lucas, surprised.

Li Xu couldn't help covering his forehead, and then stepped forward and gave Adam an elbow, "Let me introduce, George, this is Adam, Adam Pritzker, this is Scott, Scott Fujita, my classmate and friend." ”

"Hello. Lucas immediately reached out and shook their hands, "Thank you very much for your support." ”

"Star Wars is the best sci-fi movie I've ever seen, Mr. Lucas. Adam was excited.

"yes, especially the lightsaber setting, it's pretty cool. Scott was just as excited.

"Thank you. Lucas, who was accustomed to this kind of battle after the release of the first part, seemed quite reserved and immediately signed their poster.

He was a little more enthusiastic about Scott, after all, as a dog raised by the United States, Japan's cultural exports on the North American continent are not so restricted, and now there are still two years before Japan's big purchase, and Americans generally have a good opinion of Japan.

What's more, Lucas's Jedi knight evolved from Japanese samurai, and he has a very good relationship with Akira Kurosawa, plus Li Xu has helped him a lot in this time and space.

Not to mention anything else, Li Xu not only took money to help him complete the filming of the first part of "Star Wars", but also invested in Industrial Light and Magic, so that the originator of the special effects company was far less shabby than another time and space when it was established, and moved to Marin County early to conduct special effects research more efficiently in a comfortable environment.

And Li Xu's mother is Japanese and well-known, so it is not surprising that Lucas looks like this.

However, he quickly reacted: "Eddie said your surname is Pritzker, is that Pritzker?"

"Yes, Mr. Lucas, that Pritzker. Adam replied somewhat depressed, but with a hint of pride.

It is normal for children of large families to suffer from the common problem that on the one hand, they do not want to be regarded as just a member of the family, they want to highlight themselves, but on the other hand, they are faintly nostalgic for the pride and ...... of being born in a large family Superiority.

"Call me George. Lucas said this first, and then said half-jokingly, "Maybe I should say goodbye?"

"This ......," Adam was suddenly a little embarrassed.

"Well, I just thought, maybe this year or next year, if the people in my studio want to compete for the Pritzker Prize, maybe they can find a lobbyist," Lucas said in the same half-truth.

"Alright, George," Li Xu slapped him in the face, "If you really want your people to win the Pritzker Prize, you have to let them design buildings, instead of staying in ILM to make models for you." ”

The Pritzker Prize was created by the Pritzker family last year, and anyone who is engaged in the construction industry, whether it is design, construction, or commentary, can nominate for this award, and then like the bomb award, it will be judged by many authoritative figures, and finally the president of the United States will present the award and deliver a speech.

I have to say that the Pritzker family has really invested a lot in this award, but it has gained enough, without the platform of the President of the United States, how can such an award that was established in 79 years be hailed as the Nobel in the architectural world a few years later.

After all, this is one of the few practices that can make a family famous for centuries, although the few liberal arts awards of the Bomb Award are very fucked, but the science awards are still full of gold, and as long as the Bomb Award is still being awarded, the name Nobel will be passed on.

What's more, this is a win-win or even a win-win approach, the Pritzker family has received more honors and praise, His Excellency the President has also received more attention and a small retirement pension, and the United States has gained a new cultural label.

I have to say that the Pritzker family has really tried their best to ensure that the Hyatt Group can always be in their own hands. Unfortunately, even if they put on a halo for themselves and designed more than 1,000 unconnected family trusts to hold family assets, the structure that they thought would last at least until 2042 still fell apart in the 21st century.

The royal power is not eternal, and in the oldest group of conglomerates in the United States, DuPont can barely maintain control over all the family estates, and the others have more or less lost power in some industries.

It's not that they're in decline, these families still have huge wealth that no one else can earn in their lifetimes, and they still have a lot of influence in high society, with connections all over Europe and the United States, and they also have a certain influence on the economy and policies of the United States.

But it is impossible to be as powerful, unscrupulous, unscrupulous, and unscrupulous as it was in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and it is impossible to have an impact on the economy with a sneeze and make the White House tremble, and that is the power of Wall Street and the military-industrial complex.

Therefore, Li Xu has no interest in rebuilding the Morgan Consortium, so he will say that he has already withdrawn from the stage, so why bother to run out of such a thing again.

Far from it, when Lucas founded ILM, he recruited few people who knew about computers, and more makeup artists, prop artists, and architects, so he made fun of the Pritzker Prize.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that, anyway, it's nice to meet you, Adam. Lucas laughed and shook Adam's hand again, easing his embarrassment.

In the rest of the conversation, Lucas was obviously a little more enthusiastic about Adam, which was interesting compared to the previous one, but Scott didn't care at all. He is actually a person who is very good at reading eyes, and he is also a person who knows how to advance and retreat, otherwise there are so many people in the school, how could he be the only one who hugged Li Xu's thigh.

When the three of them came to talk about the goal of college before, Scott said so many schools, in fact, he indirectly asked Li Xu if he could go to Harvard with him.

As Lucas stopped at the door, more and more people gathered around, including Harrison Ford, who was about to walk in.

Seeing this, Lucas hurriedly pulled Li Xu and them into the theater, so as not to block the passage.

Then all the way inside, in the small room in front of the screening hall, Spielberg and the star wars stars were talking and laughing there.

"Hey, Add, I was just asking them if you were here. Like Lucas, Spielberg came up to him affectionately and hugged him.

At this time, Spielberg was not as handsome as he was later, even in a suit, his hair was still messy, and he had a large beard, which was not as rough as Lucas.

"I've been here for a while, but my friend wanted to get an autograph from George, so he waited at the door for a while. Li Xu said and introduced Adam and Scott to him.

When the two guys met Spielberg, although they were not as excited as Lucas, they still fully expressed their reverence, after all, "Jaws" could scare many people from swimming in the sea.

"The new movie will start in June?" After this round of signatures, Li Xu asked, "Do you still need help?"

"Thank you, no, the preparations are almost the same, just waiting for the start-up. Spielberg smiled.

"That's great, I can't wait to see Harry swinging the whip," Li Xu said praisedly, his tone seemed to come from the heart, "Especially those few makeup photos, after the movie is released, you must give me a few posters to collect." ”

"No problem, Drew is more than happy to paint a few more posters for you. Spielberg agreed.

The Drew he is talking about is not the goddaughter of the future, at this time "e.t" has not yet started filming, he is talking about Drew Stezan, a well-known commercial illustrator in Hollywood, since 70 years, I don't know how many movies he has drawn posters, delicate brushstrokes and oil painting style are quite popular, Li Xu also likes it.

"By the way, Add, what do you think about that?" Spielberg asked suddenly, looking at him a little cautiously and without blinking

"No problem with the script of "Night Sky", as long as you direct and produce, I will definitely support it. Li Xu immediately reassured, but the tone immediately changed: "But I have a small question, Steven, why is it a story of an evil alien coercing a family? Why can't it be the story of a friendly alien Buddy and a withdrawn child becoming friends?"

Spielberg was stunned for a moment, then showed a thoughtful expression.

"I don't mean to interfere with your creation, but I think that since there is already a "Third Kind of Contact" where aliens and humans conflict, it seems good to make a movie about aliens and humans getting along with each other. Li Xu explained, "I believe that many people have fantasized about having an alien friend when they were young, at least I have." ”

Spielberg was stunned again, this time it took a few seconds to come to his senses, and then touched his chin thoughtfully: "I'll think about it, Eddie, thank you." ”

"Just a little advice. Li Xu said in a modest tone, but laughed wildly in his heart, what could be more interesting than prompting him what to do in front of the original author?

The original idea of "e.t" was called "Night Sky", which was mentioned by Li Xu, and the content was roughly the story of an evil alien coercing a family, which was an idea that Spielberg and his friends came up with when they were considering a sequel to "Contact of the Third Kind".

However, due to various reasons, such as the box office of "Contact of the Third Kind" did not meet the expected target, this idea was finally shelved, and it was only picked up again when I went to Tunisia to shoot "Raiders of the Lost Ark". In addition, he also fantasized about alien friends when he was a child, so after finding a screenwriter to revise and revise it, "Night Sky" became "e.t".

Li Xu had seen this gossip in his previous life, so at this time, he took the opportunity of Spielberg to attract investment, so he told him in person.

This is not plagiarism, what Spielberg will do when he hears it is his business, Li Xu will not interfere for half a point, let alone leave his name on the screenwriter, director, and producer, because ...... It's too much trouble.
