In Hollywood in the eighties and nineties, sci-fi action movies were all the rage.

"Mad Max" helped Mel Gibson reach the top; Arnold Schwarzenegger started a new chapter in his career with "Predator"; Sylvester Stallone rekindled the second spring with "The Dragon in the Sky" and "SWAT Judge"; Even Shange Winton, a guy who has never studied filming, can become a B-level kung fu star with "Time and Space Special Police"; Not to mention Will Smith and Harrison Ford, these box office superstars with both acting skills and personalities.

In this day and age, no action star has been able to bypass the realm of sci-fi action movies.

Even more than ten years later, when the manga series of movies was popular, this theme was still popular.

The invincible Superman in the main sequel of "Fast and Furious" has achieved a perfect transformation in the outbreak, and Black Adam and Bald Guo beat Heimdall, who was laid off from Asgard and re-employed; And for the sake of a dog, John Wick, who fought against the whole world, also perfectly interpreted the essence of assassins, and the best stealth is to kill everyone The theorem was vividly interpreted by him, but the last fall in "Ready for War" made B-grade action movies completely detached from the original taste and officially promoted to the field of science fiction; Only Luc Besson's "Anna", which pays tribute to himself, has a hint of old-school action movie feeling, but unfortunately, Les and Yan are the biggest attraction in it.

Over the decades, sci-fi action movies have cultivated a loyal following, and the breadth of the audience is truly staggering.

And its far-reaching influence has made many directors become beneficiaries of this type.

is like John McTiernan, who made "Predator"; David Fincher, who took over from Alien 3; The Fifth Element, which gives science fiction a fuller imagination, and its creator, Luc Besson; Tim Burton, creator of the original Batman; Ridley Scott, who finally overturned the case with "Blade Runner" many years later, and so on and so forth.

These people are all famous for sci-fi action movies.

But compared with these directors, James Cameron and his "Devil's Terminator" can be regarded as a sign of the times; And this symbol is not the 100 million investment of "Terminator 2", let alone the 500 million box office that swept the world in the 90s, but the science fiction film shooting method that subverts people's cognition.

While everyone is dominated by traditional models and special effects makeup, shooting science fiction films, truck drivers are crazy about computer visual effects; In this era when fist hammering is a man's romance, the truck driver has created a sculpting villain; When the future governor's acting skills are criticized, the truck driver makes him charming; In the face of the routine of robots acting as villains, how to make machine learning emotions and use machines to reflect on human nature, the topic thrown by the truck driver makes the film sublimated.

As the first place voted by the American people as the "best collectible film of the twentieth century", the influence of the "Terminator" series on this land is far-reaching, to put it mildly, it is no less weighty than "Home Alone......

It's a pity that Charlie Cosmo is not a time-traveler, he doesn't know these things.

But just an investment of 100 million yuan can already make countless people rush to it!

Even if James Cameron at this time can't compare with Steven Spielberg, who has already filmed "Jaws", "Contact of the Third Kind", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series, "Alien E.T.", and "Purple Sister Flower", then for the sake of "Terminator", "Alien 2", and "The Abyss", there is no problem with taking two films at the same time, right?

Hiss......

Wrong.

It seems to be a bit of a problem.

On a flat footing, if you are Charlie Cosmo, if you really want to develop in Hollywood, clinging to Spielberg's thighs is much more cost-effective than betting on Cameron.

After all, those Jewish gang bosses are all acquaintances, and they follow them to make a film, and they will make a profit without losing money.

And if Cameron's 100 million masterpiece hits the street, the reputation that he finally got mixed up will be gone.

Of course, for Roland, Charlie Cosmo's failure to take the film is the best news.

If he didn't know the identity of the old woman before, Roland might have persuaded the other party, but now......

If people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed.

As for Roland's actions, he might have made Edward Furlong, who had no background, disappear?

Ever since Roland's crossing, this was destined to happen.

Roland didn't think it was a big deal at all, at least it was much better than copying someone else's movie.

Plagiarizing other people's works is tantamount to directly using other people's ideas, but snatching away the role that is destined to succeed, he can't completely play it in the way of the original owner, he still has to work hard.

And, even if he had tried, he might have encountered the situation like today.

Because of his own reasons, he was defeated by a guy who perfectly fits the role.

If his morals are so high that he will have a guilty reaction to steal other people's roles.

Then he might as well just wipe his neck with a dinner knife, and why are he still entangled with Mohami and these people?

So—

"James Cameron?"

"Terminator 2: Judgment Day?"

When Roland reported these two sets of names with trepidation in his heart, Marley, who already thought he was good, had a smile on his face even bigger.

"Good, I didn't expect you to be able to guess?"

"Looks like you know James well?"

"Well, now can you tell me, are you interested in this project? Do you have time to come with me? ”

"Of course, I'll be able to leave ...... right away"

After receiving an affirmative answer, Roland swallowed the steak in his mouth directly, picked up the napkin, and wiped his mouth.

At this moment, he felt that if he didn't agree, then the mother would be a fool!

The kind of fool who has to eat Italian cannons!

If Jack in "Captain Hook", that is, Peter Pan's son, is a key character in the film, because it was Captain Hook who kidnapped him first, there is only the plot of Peter Pan's follow-up rescue, in terms of seniority, at least he is a male number three; John Connor in "Terminator 2" is a real male number two, and he has even more roles than Captain Hook.

Not only that, but compared with Jack's childlike childlike innocence, John Connor's rebellious role is actually more suitable for Roland, he doesn't have to show the purity of his heart, he can use the skills given to him by those big guys to conquer this role.

Of course, the same family attributes as the characters in the play are also a plus for Roland, although the Olsons did not treat Roland the same as the host family in the play, but the estrangement still exists.

However, in addition to the above advantages, Roland's disadvantages are also very obvious.

And that's—

He didn't have time to prepare for the upcoming auditions.

But, Roland thinks, it doesn't matter.

He would rather come to a blitzkrieg than attend an audition audition; He would rather be the replacement for Charlie Cosmo that Marley has found than be relegated to the sequence and wait for Cameron to be screened.

Not being prepared was a challenge for him.

But at the same time, Spielberg's evaluation this morning and the other party's signature are precisely his biggest help.

As long as he can meet Cameron today, he can confidently and boldly tell the other party that Spielberg praised himself this morning.

So, to be able to see Cameron today.

Roland hadn't even finished his lunch, so he hurriedly urged Mary to take him over.

When he left, if it weren't for Charlie Cosmo's kind reminder, he would have forgotten the comic book he had just bought.

“Thank you for helping me。”

"If I can win this role, I will definitely treat you to dinner then."

Charles smiled and nodded, compared to Roland's excitement, he didn't care about the project at all.

For him, entering Hollywood is purely a ticket play.

If it weren't for the fact that Roland wanted to enter the crew of "Captain Hook" this morning, Charles felt that he might be in the way of a filmmaker who loved filmmakers, and he would not have given the opportunity to Roland directly in front of Marley.

"Then I'll sit here and wait for you to come back." Charles winked at the excited Roland.

"Ok, then you wait for me." Roland sincerely thanked him, and after answering, he pulled up Mohami who was a few tables away.

After learning that Roland was passed by Spielberg himself, Mohami's heart was very depressed.

He felt that his own money bag was less than half.

Therefore, when eating lunch, even if there are several tables apart, he does not pay attention to eavesdropping.

Not only that, even though Charles's manager is a beautiful woman, he, a straight man, didn't think about saying hello, but turned away from grief and appetite, and worked hard to eliminate the food on the plate.

But—

When Roland slapped him on the knee and asked him to take him to Sony Studios to audition for James Cameron's project, this guy who was struggling with entrepreneurship to help Kim jumped up in an instant.

"What did you say?"

"James Cameron?"

Mohami, who was shocked, had enough professionalism to ask, even if he was surprised, he pinched his throat and asked.

The appearance of the thief soothed Roland a lot, and after giving the other party an affirmative look, Mohami, who got Roland's idea, threw away the knife and fork, took the information in his left hand, and dragged Roland with his right hand, like a mother cat carrying a chick, and dragged him out of the restaurant.

When he returned the same way, Mohami also asked Roland for the reason.

And when he learned that the project of "Terminator 2" was given up by Charles lightly......

With a wide open mouth, you can even directly stuff the new Wangzi steamed buns from Want Want Company.

Unfortunately, Mohami was not influenced by ancient poetry.

Otherwise, he would definitely use the phrase 'mountains and rivers are full of doubts, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village' to describe Roland's current situation, instead of becoming an illiterate and uneducated like he is now - "Fuck! Fuck！ Fuck！ You are kidding me!? ”

"Okay, okay, I'm nervous now, don't put pressure on me, okay?" Looking at the guy in the center rearview mirror, Roland took a deep breath and said, "Now, you can pray for me." ”

"Because, if nothing else, this should be a one-man meeting."

It was a one-on-one meeting, of course, or that James Cameron had just gotten the news that Charlie Cosmo had been poached by the crew of "Captain Hook" next door, and that Roland was brought in by his casting director, Mary Finn.

When Cameron, who was nestled in his makeshift office on the set, saw the two guys who had suddenly arrived, the guy who was having lunch raised his hand and wiped his mouth, the one who had not yet shouted 'I'm king of the world!' at the Oscars. The truck driver is not yet forty, and his hair is still jet black.

Maybe it's because he didn't sleep well because he was tired of the movie, and the bags under his eyes were a little obvious.

Of course, eating, sleepiness, and glazed eyes are not the point.

The point is that in the huge office, in addition to him, there is a guy with round-rimmed glasses - Spielberg.

"Marie? What are you doing here? You've only been away for twenty minutes, and you're ready for lunch? ”

"Roland? Didn't you go with Charles? Why is it coming again? ”

The two questions that appeared at the same time made the four people present a little confused.

However, after a while, the two bigwigs were the first to react.

"Marley, you're here to tell me that Charles was cut off by Steven?"

"Roland, you and Charles were having dinner when they happened to be bumped into by Mary?"

Get......

Before Mary Fein could explain the matter clearly, the two bigwigs had already guessed the ins and outs of the matter.

In fact, after Roland and Charles left together, Spielberg and the other two main creators also separated one after another.

It's just that, unlike Dustin and Robin, Spielberg didn't go home, but turned around and came to the "Terminator 2" crew next door.

Of course, Spielberg came over, but it was not for nothing that he announced to Cameron that Charles had been signed by himself.

This kind of little thing is not important to them at all, besides, he and Cameron are friends.

This time, in addition to rubbing rice, he actually wanted to talk to Cameron, a movie related to dinosaurs.

Jurassic Park.

However, before they could officially start, Mary Finn came with Roland......

Although the two bigwigs had already guessed the cause and effect, Mary Finn still retold her intentions.

And when they learn that Roland is Mary Finn's newly chosen John Connor......

Spielberg was the first to laugh.

"Mary is right, I did watch him act in the morning."

"I've also seen the Home Alone tape."

"His acting techniques are very mixed, some places seem to have been taught by Robert Zemeckis, and some places can see the shadow of Michael Fox, but his method of analyzing the character is the one used by Joe Percy and Robert De Niro, which is Martin's favorite expressionist ......"

"Of course, although it is very miscellaneous, it is very good."

"If you don't mind, you can give him a script and let him play it for you."

"We're going to have to eat anyway, so we won't lose time."
