"Today, we are honored to have invited the famous director Mr. Loran, and our Century Company and Cobia Company have reached a formal cooperation with Mr. Loran. We will spend $500 million to make a science fiction blockbuster about the interstellar universe. The name of this movie is "The Human Era"!"
"This movie is based on a script written by Mr. Adam, a world-renowned science fiction writer and Nobel Prize winner, and the world's top science fiction screenwriter, which took him five years to create!"
"In my opinion, this is another breakthrough in the history of Hollywood and even the entire international film industry!"
"Next, we would like to invite Mr. Loran!"
“…”
“…”
6:30 in the evening.
Under the attention of the entire international media, the two bosses of Century Company and Columbia Company nodded at the same time to Rick who was not far away.
Then……
Rick glanced at all the internationally renowned media, movie stars, and staff sitting in front of him...
He spoke these words slowly, in a very high-pitched voice that was filled with a hint of passion.
Then...
Applause!
The emotions of countless reporters were raised to the highest point, and they all looked at Director Roland who was walking slowly towards them from a distance. He was not walking fast, but walking very steadily.
I don’t know if it’s because of the lighting or psychological suggestion, but all the media and even Lu Yuan felt that this director, who was dubbed the God of Science Fiction, had a mysterious aura behind him that even Lu Yuan felt.
It seems that there is a great sense of pressure that makes people awe-inspiring.
“It’s been ten years since the last Titans movie!”
"Ten years ago, I said that if there was no suitable script, then I might not make a movie again."
"But five years ago, by chance, I met Mr. Adam on the Nobel Prize for Literature stage, and then read his novel The Last Era on Earth. I suddenly realized that if the content of this novel could be adapted for the big screen, it would be an extremely exciting thing."
"After I told Mr. Adam about this idea, he was also quite interested in it... Just like that, the idea for the script of "The Human Era" was born..."
“In fact, five years passed from the time the idea for the script was born to the time it was completed!”
“…”
“…”
As the God of Science Fiction Roland was speaking, he felt something invisibly touched in his heart.
Ten years have passed.
He thought he would never see any good scripts again and would never be able to make any movies again.
but……
Things will always turn around one day.
He met Adam.
Although Adam has a bad temper, his talent in the literary circle is recognized worldwide.
Their collision is bound to create incredible sparks!
Not only that, Century Company and Columbia Company had previously found Roland at the same time, hoping to help Roland make this movie together, and at the same time, to use the most luxurious lineup in the world to make this movie!
This is unprecedented in the entire world film industry!
And this upcoming movie is also the craziest movie he has ever directed!
Century and Columbia did not deceive him...
An investment of 500 million US dollars, the participation of two-digit Hollywood movie stars, and even a small minion is a well-known Hollywood actor...
It is only a matter of time before this movie, with such a luxurious lineup that even God would be shocked, surpasses "War and Roses"!
That's all!
Waves of applause rang out.
Adam, who was next to Lu Yuan, stood up and slowly walked to Luo Lan's side.
Facing the camera, he originally wanted to say something passionately, and then pull Lu Yuan over to show his face as he had discussed with Andrew before, and ask Lu Yuan with a hypocritical smile what he thought of this "Human Era"...
But after talking with Lu Yuan, Adam found that he suddenly couldn't face his own heart!
That's right, his heart doesn't allow him to do this!
He didn't chat with Lu Yuan for long, only one or two hours at most, but during this one or two hours, he felt that he had really benefited a lot and felt ashamed. Then, he unconsciously admitted from the bottom of his heart that "Lu Yuan's dinner" was indeed worth that price. He even felt that if he had enough money, he would also bid for "Lu Yuan's dinner"...
So, at this time, he really couldn't do as Andrew discussed with him.
"This will be a great movie. In the past five years, I have broken down the entire concept of "Anthropocene" countless times..."
"All my efforts are in this script. If someone asks me what level this script of "The Human Era" is, then I would say that it is a script that covers multiple elements, and at the same time..."
“…”
“…”
As he was speaking, Adam's pupils shrank slightly as if he had thought of something, and then he glanced at Lu Yuan who was listening attentively in the audience.
Then, he looked at Andrew again, seemed to hesitate for a while, bowed to everyone to show that he had finished speaking, and then left the camera...
…
Andrew, who was watching, frowned.
He realized that what Adam said was totally different from what they had discussed before.
Didn't Adam dislike Lu Yuan very much? At this time, in front of all the cameras, with such huge resources, he could easily make Lu Yuan lose face. Moreover, Andrew felt that no matter how powerful Lu Yuan was, he could not turn the tables.
But……
Adam did not do that at all.
"Mr. Andrew..."
"Mr. Adam, why are you..."
Andrew looked at Adam who was walking towards him with a serious face. After looking at him with an extremely serious expression, he felt more and more that something was wrong.
“I think this “Anthropocene” should have a suspenseful ending at the end, a suspenseful ending that will make people linger on the story! I always felt that this script was lacking something, but now, I think it’s completely complete.”
"What's the ending?"
"The end of the last human hearing a knock at the door!"
"What?"
After looking at Adam's serious expression, Andrew felt a little confused.
He had no idea what Adam was trying to say.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Andrew, I think we may be a little biased against Mr. Lu Yuan. In fact, when I was chatting with Mr. Lu Yuan just now, I realized that Mr. Lu Yuan was not the person I thought before. Although it may be a bit inappropriate to say this now, I think that in order to make the entire "Anthropocene" complete and to make it an existence that is endless and beyond all science fiction movies, we must add the last scene. And Mr. Lu Yuan, make this "Anthropocene" complete..."
“…”
Andrew stared at Adam who looked serious as if he had seen a ghost.
After seeing Adam's extremely serious expression, he no longer knew what to say.
"Mr. Adam, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Mr. Andrew, I know. In fact, I think a lot of the things Mr. Lu Yuan just talked to me about can be inserted into The Human Era to make The Human Era more complete."
"Mr. Adam, I hope you can mind your position!"
"Mr. Andrew, this is what I proposed, and I really hope to make this script complete. After this press conference, I will talk to Director Loran about it..."
“…”
Although Adam is very talented, his emotional intelligence is not very high. He seems to be extremely responsible for his work and looks like a typical stubborn person.
After he left these words, he turned and walked towards his seat.
After sitting down in his seat, he continued to chat with Lu Yuan.
After seeing this scene, Andrew felt a surge of rage from deep within his heart!
He felt a hint of betrayal and slap in the face.
He even felt that this Adam didn't take him seriously at all...
What is going on?
When Andrew looked at Lu Yuan, who showed a sincere smile from time to time, he even wanted to tear him to pieces!
Then……
He realized that calling Lu Yuan here was a very unwise decision!
…
The press conference is still going on.
Each and every best actor and actress attracted the attention of all media and audiences.
However, what disappointed all the media was that this press conference did not turn out the way they wanted.
Then……
After about half an hour...
"Like I said on Twitter before, I'm very interested in the role of the protagonist, and Mr. Lorrain is directing it, so, I..." Lyon, the leading actor of "Anthropocene" and one of the top actors in Hollywood, came under the camera and smiled confidently after answering some reporters' questions.
When Leon finished speaking, he looked at Lu Yuan who was sitting in the audience.
"Mr. Lu Yuan... I heard that you also have a movie called Titanic?"
When Lyon suddenly asked this question, the reporters' hearts trembled instantly.
After waiting for so long, the main topic is finally here!
They subconsciously looked at Lu Yuan who was sitting in the front row.
"Yes, Mr. Lyon." Lu Yuan nodded and smiled.
"The Legend of 1900 won so many awards at the Oscars, but it didn't win the Best Director Award. Well, do you think your film Titanic can win the Best Director Award?"
"I don't know...there are no certainties in this world."
"So, you're here for Best Director for Titanic?"
"no."
"So, Mr. Lu Yuan, if "The Human Era" and "Titanic" were to compete, who do you think would win?"
“…”
After hearing this question, Lu Yuan was silent for a while.
He didn't expect that Leon would suddenly ask this question so bluntly, and asked this question before the filming even started.
This is not an easy question to answer.
"Mr. Lyon..."
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"I don't know who will win, but it will definitely be exciting." Lu Yuan looked at Lyon, and then at Roland next to Lyon.
He was facing the world's top director, known as the God of Science Fiction...
He should have been timid.
but……
At this moment, not only was he not timid, but he also revealed a sense of desire that he could hardly describe.
"Titanic" was a very great movie in its original world.
So what about in this world?
He was suddenly looking forward to it.
"Mr. Lu Yuan, Titanic and Anthropocene cannot compete with each other. They are not on the same level..." Leon suddenly said this very impolitely. After saying this, Leon subconsciously changed his expression and said, "Sorry, Mr. Lu Yuan, I didn't mean to belittle Titanic... Sorry, please forgive me..."
"It's okay." Lu Yuan smiled indifferently and sat down. His eyes were not at Leon, but at Roland next to Leon.
It was as if he didn't take Leon seriously at all.
"However, Mr. Lu Yuan..." After seeing Lu Yuan's expression, Leon became a little angry.
"you say……"
"Is the situation of "Titanic" very difficult? In the past, you would always promote your movies well, but "Titanic" has been on and off until now, and it seems that except for you and Miss Kate, you haven't even announced the main characters? Then, you don't plan to promote "Titanic" well this time?" Leon suddenly stared at Lu Yuan with a smile on his face.
When Zhou Shuai and Wei Pangzi heard what Lyon said, their faces suddenly changed!
This is tantamount to mocking them in disguise that "Titanic" has no actors and no publicity resources.
The reporters were extremely excited!
They suddenly realized that this conflict would be very intense!
However, at this moment...
"Mr. Lyon."
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"This is not a talk show. Please note that this is the launch of the movie 'Anthropocene', not the movie 'Titanic'. So, please don't waste the resources that Mr. Andrew and Wilson have spent a lot of money on advertising our 'Titanic'... Otherwise, I can't afford your advertising fee." Lu Yuan was not angry, but shook his head with a smile.
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu Yuan is so humorous." Lyon suddenly found that he didn't know how to answer and could only use a smile to hide the embarrassment.
His original thoughts seemed to be diverted by Lu Yuan. It seemed that when he thought about it this way, he was actually suspected of advertising for "Titanic".
He continued to introduce the topic of "The Human Era" in a joking manner.
But all the media paid no attention to him. Instead, they focused on Lu Yuan who stood up and walked towards Andrew.
Could it be that...
Something exciting is coming?
The smell of gunpowder seems extremely strong?
"Mr. Andrew..."
"Mr. Lu Yuan..."
"Today is October 1st, and seven days from now it will be October 7th. Well, Mr. Andrew, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. I hope that we can still be good partners when we meet next time. By the way, if there is a press conference for Titanic, I hope you can come with Mr. Wilson..."
“???” Andrew was stunned for a moment after seeing Lu Yuan’s smiling face and his back as he turned and left.
He didn't understand what Lu Yuan meant.
He felt...
Was my IQ insulted by Lu Yuan?
Seven days later will be October 7th, doesn’t he know?
but……
I don't know why, but a very bad feeling came over me.
The reporters' cameras just happened to capture Andrew's extremely stunned face and Lu Yuan's back as he turned and left.
"What did they talk about?"
"I don't know, but I know they are about to officially start a war!"
"Why?"
"Because Lu Yuan left early."
“…”
