"I want you to give up. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Lance looked at George very seriously, his bright eyes deepened, like the sea at night, but nothing could be seen clearly in the halo refracted by the cold moonlight.

Lance wasn't kidding, he meant it. Regardless of whether what George said just now was true or a lie, he hoped that George would give up. Lance wondered if George's deepest place still had a glimmer of hope for his dreams, and if so, he should give up.

If only from a legal point of view, similar situations are not uncommon in Hollywood, Lance is naturally untenable in the absence of direct evidence, George's approach does not seem to have any problems, and he also put all the blame on Diorama Pictures, and is sure that Lance will not go to Ryan to confront him face to face; But creative copyright has never been a simple legal issue, this is still a moral issue, but also a personality issue, whether it is plagiarized, whether it is plagiarized, whether it is snatched, everyone should have a ruler in their hearts.

There are things that can be done and some things that cannot be done, nothing to do with the law, nothing to do with the individual, nothing to do with the rules, nothing to do with the soul.

Lance looked at George intently, more serious than ever, and looked at George carefully, he had always been very curious, including what kind of person was under this gentleman's skin, full of lies, sanctimonious, personable, and wide-ranging. Everyone said that George was a heartthrob, and the whole of Hollywood liked him, and even the always tricky media fell in love with his charm. But no one ever really saw him.

Perhaps, this is Hollywood. But in Reims's view, this is what politicians are.

George found an unshakable firmness in Lance's clear eyes, and he was at a loss for words. Things seemed to be going out of their way, which caught him off guard; Or, in other words, George had thought about such a possibility, but he didn't expect Lance to actually say it—with Lance's personality, it shouldn't be like this.

"Lance." George's face was stunned, and the panic in his eyes could barely be concealed.

Even on Broadway, it's rare to see such a good show. Lance almost saw in George's fleeting eyes a variety of emotions such as nervousness, panic, surprise, doubt, and denial, and exhausted all the complexities and entanglements. However, Lance still had no intention of letting George go.

"I said, I want you to give up." Lance was still standing, his height of six and a half feet possessing an incomparably powerful oppressive force, and his words were even heavier, slamming into George's cheek, his eyes flashing with unprecedented seriousness, mixed with a hint of desperate madness.

With such a good show, Lance won't let George play a one-man show, a good rival partner can make the plot more exciting, right?

George finally came back to his senses at this point, he opened his mouth, and the words blurted out were swallowed hard, "I will give up, if this is what you really want." The tip of George's tongue was almost twisted into a twist, and this sentence consumed most of his brainpower, but he couldn't stop there, before Lance pushed further, George hurriedly continued to speak, preventing the possibility of Lance's third confirmation - then there was no room for maneuver, "Forget our countless **** nights and nights of hard work, forget the hard work we have injected into this script, forget our expectations for this work, let's give up." I know that Dioramas is your enemy, and at the same time my enemy, even in the field of art, there are some things that cannot be done, absolutely not done. ”

George is still playing the role of a best friend, although from an objective point of view, Diorama Pictures no longer needs George to continue to spy on intelligence from Lance, and George can become strangers with Lance; But it is not excluded that George has already begun to arrange a way back for himself, such as giving up Diora Pictures, such as cooperating with Lance in the future.

Of course, it is also possible that George has been wearing this "friend" mask for so long that he has forgotten how to take it off.

Lance could continue to tease George, push George into a corner, and follow George's words, but Lance knew that George didn't want to give up after all, maybe he didn't intend to give up from the beginning; At the same time, Lance also knew that if he pressed too hard, it would only make George suspicious, and he would show his feet. So, Lance decided to leave it at that.

"Whew......" Lance's shoulders drooped, his face showed frustration and struggle, he lowered his head and rubbed his temples with both hands, the loss and regret between his eyebrows could not be concealed at all, the pain rolled under his eyes, and then Lance sat down heavily in his chair, his face full of depression.

George's tense heartstrings finally relaxed a little, and he knew that he had succeeded, and he had succeeded in touching Lance. Lance was always so soft-hearted, so kind, so stupid, so idealistic, that he seemed to be able to do anything for his dreams. As long as he played this card, he was eighty percent sure of convincing Lance. Sure enough, he did.

"Lance, I know, it's all my fault. I'll go to Ryan later, tell them I'm giving up, and ask them to find another director and actors. The scene had not yet ended, and George had to continue, and at this point he finally began to calm down, and the determination in his eyes was much more convincing than before.

Lance knew that dreams had never meant anything to George, never. So, from the beginning, they were not people on the same path. But now, is he also becoming a person like George little by little?

The thought made Lance a little tired, really tired, he raised his hand, waved it in a wistful way, and then let out a long breath, suppressing all the chaotic thoughts in his head, and looked up at George again, "You know I can't do this, it's too selfish." Lance looked at George intently, meaningful.

But George, as if he hadn't heard anything out of the strings, looked at Lance calmly.

"There are my efforts and yours in the script. It's my dream, but it's also your dream. As if relieved, Lance lifted the burden off his shoulders, "You're as eager as I am to bring this work to the big screen." Now, you've been given the opportunity to stop you from executing it because of my personal vendetta with them, can you? ”

"Lance, you know it's not like that." George finally spoke at this point, waiting for Lance to finish all his words. "Isn't it selfish for me to do this?"

Lance knew what George was waiting for, and George really performed what it meant to be a "/son and set up an archway", and he was now waiting for his blessing and recognition, how ridiculous. But Lance decided to let George enjoy the moment, "You should make this work out and make our dreams come true." There's no way I'm going to be a part of it, but you're still in it, aren't you? ”

"Lance...... George's face was moved and mixed with guilt, and he sat up straight, "You just make me more sorry for this." ”

"Then don't smash the movie, what do you think?" A smile tugged at the corner of Lance's mouth, and he said half-jokingly.

George was also amused by this sentence, and thought seriously for a while, and after a long time, he nodded, "Deal." ”

"I'll have a phone call with Ryan." Lance's sudden words immediately made George tremble, if Lance really talked to Ryan on the phone, all his words today would have to be worn. Lance could clearly feel George's shoulders tighten, which was really funny, "I'll express my position to him, otherwise he'll just think I'm a bully, won't he?" ”

George relaxed a little, "Of course, definitely." Even if you don't, I'm going to go and make my stand with Ryan. This work was filmed for the two of us. ”

Looking at George's sincere smile, Lance felt that life was really full of irony.

In fact, Lance has always had two choices in the face of George, in the face of "good night, good luck", and since Percy accidentally found the first handwritten draft of "Good Night, Good Luck" in their hands, he has the initiative. The first option, he can tear George's fake face at any time and make "Good Night, Good Luck" directly shut down, and he can't even go into filming, but this is really too cheap George, and too cheap Diora Pictures.

Therefore, he has a second choice, he can make George think that he has succeeded, and then after the release of "Good Night, Good Luck", he chooses to go to court, which really makes George ruined, and really makes Diora Pictures have no chance to turn over at all. This good show, today is just the first high/tide, there is still a way to go before the finale, he will quietly watch George play this scene, and then wait for the moment when the truth is revealed:

He was going to torture George slowly, slowly, watching him fall into disrepute little by little, watching what he held dear to him fall apart little by little, watching him experience the pain he had experienced, and give it back tenfold or even a hundredfold. He will never be soft!

In this scene, he accompanied him to the end.

So, Lance also showed a sincere smile, "You'd better let them receive the exact meaning." Although the ridiculous voice still carried a trace of exhaustion, it gradually relaxed, which also made George completely let go of his guard, Lance is still the Lance he knows, kind and simple, but in Hollywood, kindness often means stupidity.

"By the way, Diorama seems to be having some problems with funding, 'good night, good luck' they decided to shoot with Warner Bros." George added, "I just thought, maybe you'll want to know that. ”

Very good, in a word, he first sold Diora Pictures, and it seems that George has decided to part ways with Diora Pictures; And then he explained George's future direction, he has already hooked up with Warner Bros., which also explains the coincidence between the premiere and today, and maybe it is Barry who is behind George's move today - of course, this is just a guess.

"Oh, that's good news for the movie, isn't it?" Lance smiled broadly with a big heart. (To be continued.) )
