Genius has talents that ordinary people do not have, and this kind of talent is innate, such as extraordinary imagination and creative power. The Wachowski brothers are undoubtedly undiscovered geniuses who have taken inspiration from the fledgling internet to think about the connection between the virtual and the real to create a whimsical story.

Geniuses are usually half a step ahead of ordinary people, and those who are one step ahead are called madmen by ordinary people, and the madman who is one step ahead is an out-and-out genius in the eyes of the genius who is half a step ahead!

In the eyes of the Wachowski brothers, Sun Ziming is a genius half a step ahead of them.

They angrily followed Liu Weiqiang to Beverly Hills to ask for an explanation from the world-recognized Hollywood genius director, but they didn't even see a single hair of China Ming. However, under the leadership of Liu Weiqiang, in Sun Ziming's study, they saw the just-adapted "Hacker Trilogy". The connoisseur stretched out his hand to know if there was one, and after reading the script, the two brothers were hit hard by the strength of others.

Their "TheMatrix" is just an imagination and reflection of the future virtual world, and many of the ideas or imaginations are immature, and even find logical loopholes. Because they haven't met Jeffrey Darrow and Steve Skorros yet, a lot of professional stuff is purely imaginary and lacks logical support, which makes the script seem somewhat absurd.

Sun Ziming is different, he is a person who has 'experienced' the baptism of the highly developed Internet, even some things that even IT practitioners can't imagine, he can say one, two, three, and can justify himself.

What made the brothers even more impressed was that Sun Ziming's ability to tell stories was stronger than anyone they had ever met. The "Matrix" trilogy adapted by Sun Ziming has a very unique narrative strategy, using traditional drama techniques to reconstruct the narrative time and space, although the simple linear narrative mode is abandoned, but not only does not lose the clarity of the linear narrative, but also creates dramatic tension.

The Wachowski brothers were shocked to look at the script in their hands, the three scripts were coherent and the rhythm was simple and smooth, the plot twists and turns were thrilling, and there was a deep meaning that transcended the narrative itself. These three scripts have left an endless space for the imagination of those who read the scripts, if they are put on the big screen, what kind of masterpiece will it be?

God, can The Matrix surpass Lucas's Star Wars?

The three of them were so shocked by Sun Ziming's version of "The Matrix" that they became fools, and even Li Zhi sent a servant to call them for dinner, but they were still stupid and stunned.

After pouring two bottles of ice-cold 'Budweiser' beer, the three people sitting at the table came to their senses a little, only to find that the man had not returned.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Ming hasn't come back yet?"

Li Zhi, the hostess who was drinking bird's nest porridge, put down the porcelain spoon as white as jade, wiped her mouth with a snow-white napkin, and replied, "Oh, he went to Brother Jie's house." Listening to what he meant, he wanted Brother Jie to play Neo. ”

Glancing at the Wachowski brothers next to him, Li Zhi repeated it in English again, and said gently: "Andy, Larry, let me tell you: your creative book is very good, and after modification, it may become a milestone in a science fiction movie, but it is also a business venture with a huge investment." As a director, he admires your screenwriting talent, but he's also the boss of a film company, and it's impossible to hand over a project with an investment of more than $200 million to two directors who haven't proven themselves yet. I hope you understand this. ”

If it was just a "TheMatrix", the Wachowski brothers would feel that Liu Weiqiang had betrayed him, and their hearts would be full of deceitful anger, but after seeing that it had been changed to the "Matrix" trilogy in just two days, the two of them were so frustrated that they wanted to cry and scream excitedly. This is the great movie they want, but they only provide an idea, maybe even the idea is very reluctant, many of the ideas in it are never dreamed of, and the process of turning the story into a great movie has nothing to do with the two of them!

The two brothers, who had a complicated and tangled relationship, finally finished eating, and Li Zhi motioned to the maid to clean up the restaurant, and said to Liu Weiqiang in English: "Wei Qiang, Ziming asked you to go to Brother Jie's house to find him after eating." As to who directed the film, he wanted to hear from Andy and Mr. Larry. ”

……

Li Lianjie finally got married last year, and Miho Nakajima also gave up her career as a Japanese national idol and returned to the family to prepare for a husband and children. may be the shadow brought by the previous marriage, since Miho Nakajima became pregnant, Li Lianjie put down all his work and went home to take care of his beloved wife, and "King of Killers 2", which was originally planned to start filming in the second half of this year, had to be postponed to next year.

Now, Sun Ziming has arrived at his home in Marbury Beach and asked him to prepare a sci-fi movie, which really makes him very difficult. He promised Miho Nakajima that he would accompany her to give birth to children at home after getting married, how can a man not count?

However, his relationship with Sun Ziming is different from that of ordinary stars and directors. When he was most down, it was Sun Ziming who made him a superstar again, and it was Sun Ziming who turned him from an Asian superstar into a Hollywood superstar. The Chinese talk about gratitude and retribution, which is almost the grace of reconstruction, not to mention that the other party is not asking for their own repayment, but wants to take their career to the next level.

In fact, before coming, Sun Ziming was also very difficult, and let Keanu Reeves, Carry-Ann Moss and other original cast members star, and the film will be as successful as in 'Memory'. If you replace Leo with a yellow face, will it still be just as successful?

Besides, with the success of "The King of Killers", Li Lianjie is already a Hollywood superstar, and "The King of Killers 2" handed over to Liu Weiqiang will be a classic that surpasses the first part. If nothing else, those action scenes that make people burst blood vessels will allow Li Lianjie to surpass Schwarzenegger and a group of muscular men, leading a complete revolution in Hollywood action movies, and it is enough to make him famous in film history. But being able to star in an epoch-making series of movies is completely different from acting in a classic film that is destined to be only R-rated, and the evaluation in history is completely different.

Sun Ziming thought about it for a while, and then excluded Keanu. The selling point of this movie is the imagination of the virtual world, and the combination of oriental martial arts and movie special effects, not Keanu's handsome white handsome face. Li Lianjie is Chinese, while Keanu is only 1/8 of Chinese ancestry, which is very important to Sun Ziming.

Of course, Li Lianjie's embarrassment, Sun Ziming is not easy to persuade. This will be a trilogy of commercial blockbusters with an investment of more than 200 million, and Liu Weiqiang will definitely be walking on thin ice to direct, and the shooting speed is extremely slow, and it is impossible to shoot two films a year like himself. If Brother Jie accepts this film contract, plus the "King of Killers" series, he will not have much time to spend with his family in the next few years. Which is more important, family or career, depends on the individual's choice. If time could be turned back, Sun Ziming would rather trade today's achievements for time with his wife.

"Forget it, think for yourself, I respect your opinion. Nakajima, take Kayo to get something to eat and send it to the screening room. Wait a minute, James and they'll come over too, we'll have to see if that Andy has what it takes? ”

"Hi", Miho Nakajima, whose lower abdomen was slightly raised, bowed slightly and agreed, and hurriedly took Kayo Sato to Zhang Luo. Two Japanese women entered the kitchen and whispered while cooking behind closed doors.

"Miho, why is Li Sang so hesitant?"

Miho Nakajima happily stroked her lower abdomen and whispered, "He promised me that when I became pregnant, he would take care of me and the child at home." ”

Kayo Sato looked at Nakajima's lower abdomen enviously, then looked at the smile on her face, and quipped: "When Sun Sang was at home, he often made fun of Miss Li Zhi's 'three years of stupidity after being pregnant', and she knew to be silly every day, and it seems that you are also stupid by happiness." ”

Miho Nakajima teased while making exquisite sushi: "Kayo, don't be smart, beware of your boss scolding you when he finds out." The relationship between Jie and Sun Sang is beyond your imagination, Sun Sang said that if you respect Jie's choice, then you will definitely not send someone else to be a lobbyist. ”

Kayo Sato's face flushed, and he stopped talking about the topic and concentrated on helping with the food. The two prepared food and sent it to the screening room, where James and Chris and Frank and Roland had already begun watching Andy Wachowski's debut film, "Crazy Flowers," a recent loan from Warners and yet to be released publicly.

When the movie was nearing the end, Liu Weiqiang also came with Andy's brothers, and when he saw Sun Ziming watching "Amazing Flowers", he hurriedly whispered: "Andy, now think about this movie and the script just now." They'll be asking you a lot of questions, and if your answers satisfy them, there's probably a chance. ”

"OK", Andy's heart rekindled hope, and he didn't even enter the screening room, sitting alone at the door racking his brains.

Larry Wachowski followed Liu Weiqiang in, and Sun Ziming also happened to finish watching the movie, and asked a few of his friends who had called, "What do you think of this movie?" ”

"Third-rate!"

Chris Columbus, who was much kinder than James, recalled it seriously and replied: "The script is good and creative, but the actors' performances and director's abilities are relatively lacking, which may be a matter of experience." ”

Sun Ziming turned his head and motioned to Frank and Roland, "Well, I agree with Chris, this screenwriter is very talented, but the director is still too tender." ”

Everyone said so, and James also took the movie just now into his mind, admitting: "The screenwriter is good, and there is a first-class level." Ming, who was that screenwriter just now? Well, this guy is kind of interesting. ”

Standing quietly at the back, Larry Wachowski felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, his brother's first film must have been inexperienced, but his talent was recognized by these great directors!
