Leaving the forest and grass cemetery, walking quickly along the 405 Expressway, the buildings outside the car windows quickly retreated. The uneven skyline was like a rushing river, running away vibrantly in the sight, and sometimes you could see connected trees breaking into it. The green green and clear blue dizzy in the transparent river water. Large areas of blue, green and gray collided together, blending into the thin golden sunlight, like an abstract painting written by Van Gogh, blooming proudly in the sight.

The raging wind swept over, breathing the refreshing and natural oxygen deeply, Lance had time to sort out everything that happened in the cemetery just now: a messy dream, a third life, a tit-for-tat with Ryan, a head-on fight with George, and a close contact with Sophia... Calm down and think carefully about what happened just now, Lance realized that he was still too impatient after all.

After his rebirth, everything rushed in a swarm, so that he lost his composure.

It is not difficult to interfere with the cooperation between Ryan and Barry. Considering the development policy of Warner Bros. and the small cost of "lost Tokyo" of only four million, Barry eventually rejected Ryan's cooperation agreement, which is a foreseeable result - because this is also a wise and correct choice.

Objectively speaking, Ryan is still too cautious. Diorama Film has the ability to take the lead in producing low-cost production like "Lost Tokyo", and even independently publish. Seeking cooperation from large companies is just to reduce risks. Of course, for Ryan, "Lost Tokyo" has a strategic significance - signing a long-term cooperation agreement with Warner Bros. to win a broader development space for Diorama Film. However, in Lance's view, the theme and type of "Lost Tokyo" seem too low. Even if a cooperation with Warner Bros. is reached, it will only make Diorama Film a subsidiary of Warner Bros., not an equal partner.

But on the other hand, even if Lance successfully destroyed the cooperation between Ryan and Barry, Ryan could produce "Lost Tokyo" by himself or cooperate with other companies. Once "Lost Tokyo" is successful, Diorama's reputation and reputation can still rise steadily, winning them a higher position in Hollywood.

Therefore, Lance's move just now only focused on the present, but ignored the future. The "Lost Tokyo" project is always in the hands of Ryan, and it is not the root cause.

Lance's inadequate consideration, and then the chain reaction was on Sofia Coppola.

Lance couldn't wait to contact Sophia, cut off the fire from the cauldron, and took the entire "Lost Tokyo" project in his hands. The lowest plan was that Lance would continue to deepen Sophia's impression of the script, allowing Sophia to go to Tokyo to shoot on the spot, and develop a sense of exclusion from the cooperation of large companies, so that it can echo Lance's previous first step, allowing Ryan to lose the "Lost Tokyo" project.

This idea was correct, but Lance seemed too aggressive. He not only ignored Sophia's keenness, but also ignored Ryan's decisiveness, and even more ignored the overall control. The final result was that Sophia walked away with her sleeves, and the goal of planting the seed of doubt in Sophia's heart was not achieved. At the same time, Ryan won a room for breathing, and the development of things was even more out of Lance's control.

Lance knew clearly that the least he needed was impulse, because impulse could not allow him to gain any advantage, but would only make him even more embarrassed. Therefore, when facing Ryan again, Lance showed incredible calmness and calmness, which really scared Ryan into a cold sweat.

But this is not enough. In the final analysis, he was still impulsive. The fluctuations in his emotions and the cumbersome thoughts made him lose his sense of responsibility. One step forward leads to a chess difference - fortunately, it was just a "Lost Tokyo", at least not a "Avatar".

Although the matter has not yet been finalized, the negotiations on "Lost Tokyo" are still full of countless unknowns. Lance can still try hard to see them, but he believes that if nothing unexpected happens, "Lost Tokyo" will still be produced by Diorama Pictures. Lance has known Ryan for ten years, and he believes that Ryan has the ability to make up for the accident just now - respecting his enemy and acknowledging his ability, this is the first step to defeating the enemy. Lance will never underestimate Ryan's ability.

In this way, at least two of the works released by Diorama Film will win the recognition of critics next year - in addition to "Lost Tokyo", "Elephant" will also gain a good reputation, and both works have become a beautiful landscape during the awards season at the end of the year, especially the former, with countless praises!

In other words, there are still six months to one year left for Lance, and he needs to prepare enough chips for himself during this period to gain the ability to fight against Diorama before further development.

There is too little time, too little... Six months to one year, you should know that the only achievement of Diorama Film in the whole year after its establishment was to bring the "train guessing" to the United States, but the box office was a complete dud, without causing any ripples. It took six years for Diorama Film to develop to its current scale, but now it only takes six months to one year. It is urgent, it is really too urgent!

So, what should he do? Start a new company by himself? Rely on his own big film production company like Warner Bros. Rely on his prophetic ability to the future to join an independent production company with unlimited future? Acquire a production company and invest in filming movies according to his own ideas? Or... simply bring a submachine gun to come to him?

Perhaps, the adaptation rights of novels mentioned by George can be a breakthrough. No matter what choice he makes or how he decides to fight against Diorama, excellent works are indispensable weapons. In his previous life, he had no energy to pay attention to the adaptation rights of novels; this time, his keen eyes may be able to see opportunities from it.

He was already a little impatient now, wanting to go home quickly to get out the contract, then turn out the items he still holds, and search carefully... This kind of homeless thought suddenly hit the heart, which made Lance stunned, and then burst into laughter. He was just convinced that he could not be impulsive, but now he committed it again. Even if he was anxious, he could not change anything in these few minutes - Hollywood is not a stock market that can subvert fate in one second.

Thinking of this, Lance let out a long breath. He was still too tense now. No matter what would happen in the future, it would be after the sun rises in the northern hemisphere tomorrow. The future full of countless unknowns is still a piece of white paper, waiting to be written one by one. At least at this moment, he can relax and enjoy the joy and awakening of rebirth. He regained the opportunity. This time, the initiative is firmly held in his hand - he will never let go easily!

It was not until this time that Lance had the energy to appreciate the city scenery in front of him. After a while, the sign of Sunset Avenue appeared in front of him, and Lance subconsciously turned off the highway. Immediately afterwards, the iconic palm trees, advertising boards and guitar cards in Los Angeles appeared in sight, and the heat and noise of Angel City came to his face.

Lance always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell the reason. After entering Sunset Avenue for a while, Lance finally realized that his current residence was in Century City, so he should go south, walk on the Wilsey Avenue or Santa Monica Avenue, but he walked north along the 405 Expressway - in other words, he was completely in the opposite direction!

Lance couldn't help laughing. It seemed that he had not fully adapted to his life from 2015 to 2002. He couldn't even remember where his home was-but he couldn't blame him. In his second life, he lived in Century City for less than two months, and then moved to New York.

While thinking, the engine was filled with noises, and the speed of the car slowed down significantly. Lance looked at the front hood and slowly parked the car on the side of the road. However, before he could completely park the car, the engine turned off and the whole car broke down completely.

Lance looked back and forth, opened the car door and walked down, and the rear of the car was tilted out a little. Although it was a little abrupt, it should not affect the opening of traffic on the main road. Turning to look at the front of the car, before he could open the hood, smoke began to come out inside, which made Lance very helpless when he stood there.

After a brief check, Lance knew that there was no way to solve the problem by himself, so he could only find a repairman to come over to tow the truck. This made Lance a little depressed. He first went home but drove the wrong direction, and then the car broke down directly. He was really unlucky. However, if you think about it carefully, today should be the day with the best luck - he stood on the land of Los Angeles in 2002, which was really a black irony. Thinking of this, Lance couldn't help but sneer.

Los Angeles is a city without taxis - to be precise, if you want to use a taxi, you must call to make an appointment, and the chance of temporarily stopping a taxi on the street is very small. Lance thought for a while, opened the drawer in front of the passenger seat, flipped through it, and found a Motorola flip phone.

Although it is 2002, mobile phones are already very popular, and the styles, sizes, functions, etc. are all very complete. Open the phone and look at the names in the phone book. These names are so familiar but so strange. The long-standing memories are gently echoing in the depths of my mind.

He dialed the first phone number in the phone book, and just rang twice, and the other party answered, "Hello, this is Percy-Bradley." The voice was cold and distant, falling like bright moonlight.

What a strange name, so strange that Lance almost forgot; but his voice was so familiar that he was so mixed with all the flavors rolling gently on the tip of his tongue. Lance opened his mouth, but didn't know what he should say, and in the end he could only speak, "Hey, Percy, this is Lance."
