Chapter 753: Conquering Americans with Movies (Part II)

Lin Yu guessed correctly, Michael Clayton is indeed still writing "Jurassic 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. Lin Yu'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. About the new book. He didn't mention it to anyone. And it's all about the outline and the more than 100,000 words that have been written. He didn't let anyone see it. Lin Yu. A Chinese teenager. It is even more unlikely that this will be done.

"So Lin, 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.

Lin Yu shrugged and said: "Science is omnipresent, isn't this a theory that many people have been promoting, maybe those scientists can extract it from dinosaur fossils?" But. I've thought of a reason. In ancient times, the surface of the earth was covered with large areas of forests. And these trees are illuminated by the sun in the middle of summer. A lot of resin flows, and in these resins, there are often some small creatures of the time, which we call amber. I just thought. In today's world, there are blood-sucking creatures such as mosquitoes, 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 fly haphazardly. In the end, he chose a meadow under a big tree as his 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 there were earth-shaking changes here, and the sea became a mulberry field, and it just lay quietly in the ground until one day, when it was accidentally revealed. 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 Lin Yu's description of the sound and color. Michael Clayton's mouth was already wide open in surprise.

If Lin Yu 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. Among the things I just watched, it seems that there are three other movie scripts that have done well at the box office in Hong Kong by him. Apparently. This eighty percent describes this process with the plot of the movie in mind.

Lin Yu 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, Lin Yu not only watched movies in his previous life, but also read the translation of "Jurassic Park". But in the handling of details, Lin Yu 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 Lin Yu told is longer than his outline. Michael Clayton roughly estimated that there would be two more copies.

Lin Yu, who was gushing endlessly, finally finished his train of thought, and the study was quiet.

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

After a long time, Michael Clayton raised his head, looked directly into Lin Yu's eyes and said: "I don't know why you gave up writing this story yourself, I want to write this work with your ability and strength, I think there is no shortage of talents in your company." But now if you insist that I write the story, then you have to co-sign the book! Otherwise, nothing to talk about! I'd rather give up on this work entirely! ”

Michael Clayton's psychology can be said to be very contradictory, although he has already put pen to paper to turn this idea into words, but when he hears Lin Yu's story that is more complete and delicate than his outline, and even more thoughtful than in some places, he can't help but have an urge to tear up his own work. Perhaps, as Lin Yu said, he is not good at writing about the background of high-tech fields; Perhaps, as he said, in order to make this idea, this theme more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and more people's recognition, it is more appropriate to write it yourself!

Although Lin Yu only asks to be able to mention himself in the preface, he is Michael Clayton after all, a famous writer in the United States, and can serve as a genius in many industry associations such as the American Writers Guild, the Directors Guild of America, and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. That's right, it's plagiarism!

In Michael Clayton's view, with the outline provided by Lin Yu, as long as the writing level is worthy of the title of "writer", everyone can write a fascinating and excellent work, maybe they will write better, but the gap is limited. He's not like some people, some experts and professors, who can be cheeky. Laugh at your students' grades without any guilt. So in his opinion, everyone's co-signature is already his bottom line. As he spoke, he took out a stack of papers from the drawer of his desk and put it in front of Lin Yu.

Lin Yu took a cursory look at it, it was the original manuscript of "Zhuluo Ji Park", Lin Yu raised his head just right, his eyes widened, and he looked at Michael Clayton with a look of horror.

When Michael Clayton saw this scene, he was surprised and returned it to Lin Yu. He could fully imagine the shock in Lin Yu's heart when he saw those lines!

"Interesting, isn't it?" Michael Clayton shrugged his shoulders casually and said, "It seems that we chose the same idea and subject matter at the same time."

"Oh God, it's incredible. How so? Lin Yu blurted out pretending to be surprised.

"It's incredible! It seems that we want to write the same book, and our ideas are so similar that they are. If it weren't for my confidence, the manuscript would not have been leaked. And also believe that you didn't get a chance to see it, otherwise I would really think you were peeking at my writing outline. But I don't think that way anymore. Your writing outline is richer than mine, and the characters are fuller in the eyes of others. Maybe think I'm copying you. Michael Clayton's tone was full of helplessness. For "Jurassic Park", he also decided to write after a long period of careful consideration and several revisions, and he was indeed a little reluctant to give up like this.

Lin Yu couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, it was normal for such a result to appear, in his previous life, he had not only carefully read the translation of Michael Clayton's works, but also watched three movies, and watched countless reviews. There are those who praise Michael Clayton and those who criticize it. I have to say. These well-known American film critics, one by one, have a pair of fiery eyes, and they have the merits of "Jurassic Park". Of course, it is very precise and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people; But they are equally honest about the shortcomings of "Jurassic Park". What Lin Yu said today can be said to be a condensation of the evaluation of Michael Clayton's life's works by Americans and even people around the world. And based on these, his modification and repair of Michael Clayton's original work naturally have a strong pertinence, and listen to his ears. Naturally, I feel more complete and thoughtful than I thought.

"That's why I said that this work, co-signed by you and me, is a reasonable choice. Otherwise, I would have to give it up regrettably. My self-esteem, my conscience, does not allow me to enjoy this glory alone. Michael Clayton was honest but very resolute.

Having said this, Lin Yu also understood that he couldn't shirk any longer, and he couldn't make this one angry. Really going to give up this work. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation.
