In the previous life, after Li Jin had just crossed over, he was carried away by ecstasy when he was ignorant and confused, and he tried to eliminate his sense of existence, so he didn't really join in the funeral, didn't fight Ryan, didn't talk to Sophia, and didn't talk to George.

But after leaving the funeral, during the short stay in Los Angeles, George was indeed a competent friend, not only helping Li Jin quickly "grasp" the situation, but also helping to solve many problems. For example, leaving Los Angeles for New York was inspired by George; For example, cutting off all the entanglements behind him, once and for all, and getting rid of all the "debts" on his body, this is also George's friendship building.

So, even after arriving in New York, they kept in touch. Li Jin has always regarded George as a bridge between his two lives, remembering the past and looking forward to the future. What's more, George Clooney - the famous George Clooney, his admiration for Hollywood stars and his vanity that cannot be ignored by outsiders have made him and George always maintain a friendship.

As time progressed, George's true colors were revealed little by little.

Many years later, Li Jin really became Lance, only to know that George stole the creative copyright of the work "Good-Night, and-Good-Luck", took it for himself, and directed and acted by himself, after its release in 2005, it won a lot of praise, and won six nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, and Best Art Knowing at the 78th Oscars!

But in fact, the script for "Good Night, Good Luck" was originally the brainchild of Lance, and Lance wrote the framework and opening. Later, Lance and George talked about the script, and suddenly discovered that they both had a persistent passion for journalism, and the two hit it off and wrote the script together.

However, after the script was completed, because the subject matter was too dull and profound, but the core idea of the script was very complex and delicate, even if Diorama Pictures could invest in filming, it could not find a suitable director for a while, so the script was temporarily shelved.

No one could have imagined that this delay would be four years, and the world would have been turned upside down. Not only did Lance leave Diorama, but he also had a new soul under his skin, so the script of "Good Night, Good Luck" was forgotten by him. Then, George became the creator of this work as a matter of course!

Lance once went to the U.S. Copyright Office to investigate, and the copyright registrant for "Good Night, Good Luck" was George Clooney, registered in 2002, the day after he left Diorama. Therefore, the matter has long been irreparable.

The memories in his mind flashed in an instant, and then settled down again in a blink of an eye, Lance looked at George, who had a sincere face, pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, "I'm not sure, I'm thinking, maybe I should stay, at least I still have chips in my hand, so that I have the capital to fight against Ryan, isn't it?" ”

In fact, Lance had no idea what George was talking about. In the last life, they used to have such a conversation, not at a funeral, but at a lunch. At that time, Li Jin was afraid of revealing his feet, so he didn't ask too much, and he was bent on cutting through the mess quickly and solving all the troubles, so he accepted George's proposal and signed a contract.

When he got the contract, he also read it briefly, but the cumbersome legal provisions were tantamount to a book from heaven to a layman like him, which was about transferring the adaptation copyright of several works that he had not even heard of by name. Therefore, he did not hesitate and went straight to black and white.

But this time, Lance decided to change tactics and he needed to regain the initiative.

George looked at Lance with some surprise, and the surprise between his eyebrows was not hidden, "I thought you had decided to leave Los Angeles and go to New York." Lance just smiled indifferently, those deep eyes seemed meaningful, but unpredictable, George turned his head to look in Ryan's direction, "Did that bastard just tell you something?" I told you that he would never give up lightly. He's like a mad dog, biting you tightly! ”

"So, you're saying that if he robs me of all my Yiqiē, I should obediently admit defeat and let him continue to be proud?" Lance raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes showing just the right amount of surprise and anger.

George waved his hand again and again, and his tone couldn't help but soften, "You know I didn't mean that. The innocent expression in his eyes showed his grievances as a good friend, but he didn't gain an inch, and quickly changed his tone, "Lance, I mean, you've signed it, and the contract can't be modified." So, you should let go of Diorama Pictures, get out of there completely, and cut all the bonds. Then start over on your own, re-establish a company, and with your ability, you will soon be able to break through the sky, and when the time comes, you can use your way to regain your own qiē. ”

The resolute expression seemed a little tragic, and it made people feel that as a friend, even at the risk of angering Lance, he still had to tell the truth.

But to George's surprise, Lance was not angry, but calmed down and looked like he was thinking seriously. On the surface, Lance was thinking about George's construction, but inexplicably, George felt that something was wrong with Lance's expression, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

At this moment, Lance's eyes suddenly raised, directly hitting George's line of sight, and the blue eyes burst out with an inquiring look, as if he could peek into George's true thoughts, which made George can't help but pinch a cold sweat in his heart. But at the critical moment, George still did not panic, but showed a smile, with a puzzled look in his eyes, as if asking, "What's wrong".

Lance looked at George's perfect mask, but he couldn't help but sigh a little, and the smile on the corner of his mouth bloomed slightly, "You're right, I really should forget about the past and start over." George's pupils flickered slightly, and he could feel it, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Lance smiled even brighter, he didn't know that he had missed so many things, "That's why I should keep the copyright of these works, at least, my new company won't have nothing in the first place." I think that's going to be a good start. ”

George's breath of relief was directly stuck in his throat, and he didn't know whether to spit it out or swallow it, "No! A categorical objection blurted out, which broke the earth and made the atmosphere stiffen.

George's violent reaction can be seen that Ryan is determined to obtain the rights to the adaptation of these works in Lance's hands, but why? It's because Ryan has absolute confidence in Lance's vision - even if he never wants to admit it, he wants these works to be successful, so he wants to grab it; Or is it because Ryan wants to wipe out Lance and cut off all of Lance's hopes of rising?

Lance carefully recalled, but unfortunately his impression of those works was still very vague, so the reason was that the latter was more likely.

It seems that the alliance behind George and Ryan is far earlier and deeper than imagined, and if Lance remembers correctly, "Good Night, Good Luck" was produced and distributed by Diorama Pictures. In the previous life, Lance missed too much, and this time, he has to see it clearly.

Immediately, George also realized that his reaction was a little excessive, he didn't even have the time to hesitate, he directly swallowed the breath stuck in his throat, and then slightly exaggerated his surprise expression, revealing a "you're crazy" expression, "Are you sure?" That's nothing more than the copyright adaptation of a few South American and African novels, and it's of no use to you at all! ”

Novels from South America and Africa?

Lance nodded slightly in his heart, at the moment in 2002, Hollywood's adaptation boom of novels was far from its peak, and there were still many novels in the United States that had not been adapted, let alone overseas markets. It's no wonder that when I read it roughly in the previous life, I felt that they were all very unfamiliar names.

So, in this way, Ryan is determined to get these copyrights, and he really wants to cut off all the ways for Lance to live. So, what role did George play in the pursuit of Lance?

"Are you starting a new company and you're going to start in Africa?" George raised his hands and expressed that sense of absurdity with body movements, "And you continue to fight Ryan and them for the rights to adapt a few Spanish novels?" You know that they will not let go lightly, they will continue to harass you, keep suppressing you, keep pestering you, and wear down the only capital you have now. You know, that's definitely not a good sign for a new company, and the last thing you need in the early stages of a new company is the hassle you need. ”

George's words were finished, but Lance did not speak, which made George a little uncomfortable, as if the speech was just nonsense. The brief silence made the atmosphere gradually awkward, George had to cough lightly twice, pat Lance's arm, and said sincerely, "Lance, I am your friend, I stand with you unconditionally, for your sake unconditionally, I want you to defeat that group of scum more than anyone else, in a dignified way." I just hope that you don't have anything to do with them from now on, stop being harassed by them, and really start over! ”

George is really a good speaker, he knows how to use the most correct language to incite emotions, and he also knows how to use the most appropriate entry point to persuade the other party.

Lance had always known this, but today it was a very different experience. This time, Lance didn't let George wait long, he chuckled, that smile shone in the sun, as if he could see the sparkle in his azure eyes, so beautiful that all words lost their color, "Of course, you're right! ”

Lance's words made George's hanging heart finally fall back into his stomach, and then he laughed too.
