In the last life, after Li Jin had just crossed over, he was stunned by ecstasy and tried to eliminate his sense of existence, so he did not really join the funeral, did not confront Ryan, did not talk to Sophia, and did not talk to George.

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

Therefore, even after arriving in New York, they still 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, admires Hollywood stars and his vanity that cannot be spoken by others, have made him and George always maintain friendship.

As time progressed, George's true face was revealed bit by bit.

Many years later, Li Jin really became Lance, and then he realized that George stole the copyright of the creation of the work "Good Night, and Good Luck" and owned it for himself, and directed and acted it himself. After it was released in 2005, he won a lot of praise. On the 78th Oscar, he won six nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Original Script, Best Photography, and Best Art Knowledge!

But in fact, the script of "Good Night, Good Luck" was originally Lance's creativity and ideas, and Lance wrote the framework and opening. Later, Lance and George talked about the script and suddenly realized that both of them had a persistent passion for journalism. The two hit it off and joined forces to write the script.

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

No one expected that this delay would take four years and the world had turned upside down. Lance not only left Diorama, but also changed a soul under his skin, so the script "Good night, good luck" was forgotten by him. Then, George naturally became the creator of this work!

Lance once went to the US Copyright Office to investigate. The copyright registrant of "Good Night, Good Luck" was George Clooney. The registration time was in 2002, the day after he left Diorama. Therefore, things were no longer remedied.

The memories in my mind flashed in an instant, and then settled down again. Lance looked at George with a sincere face, pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled, "I'm not sure, I'm thinking, maybe I should stay, at least I have chips in my hand, so that I can have the capital to fight against Ryan, right?"

In fact, Lance had no idea what George was talking about. In the last life, they had such a conversation, not at a funeral, but at a lunch. At that time, Li Jin was afraid of showing off his feet, so he did not ask too much. Moreover, he was determined to cut the mess quickly and solve all the troubles, so he accepted George's suggestion and signed a contract.

When he got the contract, he also read it briefly, but the cumbersome legal provisions are tantamount to the book of heaven for him, and he probably transferred the copyrights of several works that he had never even heard of. Therefore, he did not hesitate and just wrote in black and white.

But this time, Lance decided to change his strategy and he needed to take the initiative again.

George looked at Lance in surprise, and the surprise between his eyebrows was not concealed. "I thought you had decided to leave Los Angeles and go to New York." Lance just smiled calmly, his deep eyes seemed meaningful, but it was unpredictable. George turned his head and looked in the direction of Ryan, "Did that bastard said something to you just now? I told you that he would never give up easily. He was like a mad dog, biting you tightly!"

"So, you mean, he stole everything from me, and I should give in and let him continue to be proud?" Lance raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes showed just the right surprise and anger.

George waved his hands repeatedly, his tone softened, "You know I didn't mean that." The innocent in his eyes showed his grievances as a friend, but he did not take it any more and quickly changed his tone, "Lance, I mean, you have signed the contract and the contract cannot be modified. So, you should let go of Diorama Film, leave it completely, and cut off all the bonds. Then start again and start a company again, and use your ability to make a fortune. Then, you can quickly retake everything that belongs to you in your way."

The resolute expression seemed a bit tragic, making people feel that as a friend, he still had to tell the truth even if he was at the risk of angering Lance.

But George was surprised that Lance was not angry. Instead, he calmed down and looked like he was thinking seriously. On the surface, Lance was thinking about George's suggestions, but for some reason, George felt that Lance's expression was something wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

At this moment, Lance's eyes suddenly raised up and directly hit George's gaze. The blue eyes burst out with a sense of inquiry, as if they could see George's true thoughts in his heart, which made George sweat in his heart. But at the critical moment, George did not panic, but smiled, with a puzzled look in his eyes, as if he was asking, "What's wrong?"

Lance looked at George's perfect mask, but couldn't help but sigh, and the smile on the corner of his mouth gently bloomed, "You're right, I should indeed forget the past and start over." George's pupils flashed slightly, and he could feel relieved in his heart.

Lance smiled a little brighter. He didn't know that he had missed so many things. "It is precisely because of this that I should have left the copyright of these works. At least, my new company won't have nothing at the beginning. I think this will be a good start."

George's relaxed breath was stuck in his throat. He didn't know whether to vomit or swallow it. "No!" blurted out with a decisive opposition, which shocked the sky, which made the atmosphere stiff.

George's fierce reaction can be seen that Ryan is determined to win the copyright of the adaptation of these works in Lance, but why? Is it because Ryan has absolute confidence in Lance's vision - even if he never wants to admit it, he hopes that these works will be successful, so he hopes to grab them; or is it because Ryan hopes to kill Lance and cut off all hopes of Rance's rise?

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

It seems that the alliance behind George and Ryan is far earlier than expected and far deeper than expected. If Lance remembers correctly, "Good night, good luck" was produced and distributed by Diorama Pictures. In his previous life, Lance missed too much, and this time, he must see clearly.

Then, George realized that his reaction was a bit too extreme. Without even a gap in hesitation, he swallowed the breath stuck in his throat, and then expressed his surprise slightly exaggeratedly, revealing a "you are crazy" expression, "Are you sure? That's just the copyright of adaptations of several South American and African novels, and it's useless to you!"

South American and African novels?

Lance nodded slightly in his heart. At the moment of 2002, Hollywood's adaptation craze for novels was far from reaching its peak. There are still many novels in the United States that have not been adapted, let alone overseas markets. No wonder when I read them briefly in my previous life, I felt that they were all very unfamiliar names.

So, in this way, Ryan is determined to win these copyrights, and he really wants to cut off all the life of Lance. So, what role did George play in the process of pursuing Lance?

"Do you plan to start from Africa when you open a new company?" George raised his hands and expressed the absurdity with his body movements. "And, you continue to fight with Ryan and the others for the adaptation rights of several Spanish novels? You know they will not let go easily. They will continue to harass you, suppress you, and tangle you, and wipe out the remaining capital you have now little by little. You know, this is definitely not a good sign for a new company. In the early stages of the development of a new company, the last thing you need is these troubles."

After George finished speaking, Lance did not speak, which made George feel a little uncomfortable, as if the speech just now was just nonsense. The brief silence gradually made the atmosphere awkward. George had to cough twice, pat Lance on the arm, and said sincerely, "Lance, I am your friend, I stand with you unconditionally, and think about you unconditionally. I hope you will defeat those scumbags in a dignified way. I just hope that you have no relationship with them from now on, and don't be harassed by them anymore, and really start over!"

George is really an excellent speaker. He knows how to incite emotions in the most correct language and how to use the most appropriate entry point to convince the other party.

Lance has always known this, but today he has a completely different experience. This time, Lance did not let George wait for a long time, and he chuckled. The smile shone brightly in the sun, as if you could see the shimmering waves in the blue eyes, so beautiful that all languages ​​lost their color. "Of course, you are right!"

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