Chapter 256： Miss

From the beginning of May, news of Robert Ludren's death suddenly appeared in many media, and some media listed the noble achievements of Robert Ludren in literature.

"On March 12, 2011, Mr. Robert Lu Delun passed away. This great thriller has completed a glorious life!"

Suddenly, similar news reports appeared in small and medium-sized media. An almost forgotten writer seemed to suddenly become the focus of media attention.

"In memory of Robert Ludren, the father of modern thrillers!"

A writer who has been forgotten by the times, the media and the audience has gradually caused waves. He and his works are frequently mentioned, especially the "Bourne Trilogy" series.

"Bourne's Identity," "Bourne's Hegemony," and "Bourne's Announcement" written by Robert Ludren once dominated the bestseller list in the 1980s and influenced a whole generation of people."

In Los Angeles, the formerly infamous Robert Ludelun Book Club suddenly became active, continuously organizing a number of Robert Ludelun book fan reading exchange activities, and also set up a special exchange session for "Bourne Trilogy".

Frankly speaking, when it comes to modern political horror, the public is more familiar with Tom Clancy. His works such as "Hunting Red October", "Browser Pursuit" and "Skynet Pursuit" have long been adapted into movies by Hollywood. , Moved to the big screen, starring actors and big-name stars such as Harrison Ford and Sean Connery, and achieved great success.

In contrast, Robert Lu Delun, who lacks successful cases of film adaptation, has a much smaller reputation.

But after all, Robert Ludren left a very brilliant mark in the 1980s. Even today, his works still have a large number of readers and fans. As long as people arouse people’s memory and curiosity about the author, it can arouse public and media attention. Nostalgia for Robert Ludren.

Treating the deceased, whether the public or the media, is tolerant, and will give the greatest possible praise. The original achievement of one point can also be turned into a point in the report and word of mouth.

The previous "Dark Knight" has proved profoundly.

As a result, some people started to commemorate Robert Lu Delun in the United States under the impetus behind the scenes.

Although the activities are scattered and there are not many people participating, this is just a warm-up.

On the Internet, a Robert Ludren memorial website also appeared. There are various ways to commemorate Robert Ludren. It also announced the schedule of activities to commemorate Robert Ludren in various parts of the United States in the next month.

"Robert Ludren’s has a very obvious feature. The protagonist in his works is usually a small person, or a small part of a small group that initiates a movement, but it happens to be against a powerful big conspiracy. After the conspiracy, the messengers will use political or economic institutions to solve the little figures in Lu Delun’s works, but these little figures can often reverse the situation at an absolute disadvantage and successfully solve the big conspiracy. The most familiar one is Robert Lu Delun. The most famous character in the pen-the amnesia killer Jason Byrne."

On Robert Ludren’s memorial website, you can see "Bourne Trilogy" and Jason Bourne's name, as well as movies adapted from "Bourne's Identity" everywhere.

This film is called "Bourne's Identity", Ronan's past life. When translated there, in order to attract the audience more, the film was translated into "The Bourne Shadows".

Similarly, this time the embassy film industry was introduced by China Film Group, and after the big scissors passed the review, the Chinese title was still "The Bourne Shadow".

More than that, after winning the authorization of Robert Ludren’s family, a short documentary about Robert Ludren’s life and works with an investment of 100,000 dollars has been filmed and produced to the end and will soon be broadcast on the Internet and TV stations. Out.

The final focus of this short documentary is of course focused on the "Bourne Trilogy".

All the publicity of Embassy Pictures is done on the basis of the consent of Robert Lu Delun’s family. The family does not want Robert Lu Delun to be forgotten, but also want more people to remember Robert Lu Delun.

In fact, the family's thoughts are not difficult to understand.

Their father is a celebrity, so celebrities should not be forgotten.

Moreover, there are many works left by Robert Lutherland that have not been published, and there are also many films whose copyrights have not been sold.

The family members are willing, so the Embassy Film Industry will naturally have no worries.

Perhaps, Robert Lu Delun, who has passed away, also hopes that more people will miss him.

Since Paul Greengrass completed post-production, Ronan has watched the edited version of Paul Greengrass several times, and even held an internal preview meeting with people from both sides of Shahai Entertainment and Embassy Pictures. Everyone I am very satisfied with this film and are optimistic about the market prospects of this film.

Ronan specifically asked Jessica Felton to watch the editing of this film.

"This editing method is quite unique." Jessica Felton told the truth: "It's very good. The level of this sharp editing style is above me."

Ronan trusts Jessica Felton's editing level very much. Hearing her comment, he said: "You said that, I'm relieved."

Jessica Felton folded her arms: "Trust me so?"

Ronan nodded and said, "Yes. I trust you far more than Paul Greengrass."

Jessica Felton put away the joke and said seriously: "Ronan, from my personal point of view, it is best not to move this film, and let this version be the final release in the theater."

After careful consideration, Ronan said: "Okay, I believe your eyes."

This is of course not only believing Jessica Felton's vision, but also his judgment based on previous lives.

Since it is impossible to do better, then use the edited version of Paul Greengrass.

Ronan doesn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder, so he has to make a few cuts on a movie that looks pretty good to highlight his existence.

The film will be screened several times before June, from the media to film critics to general audiences, and even representatives of theaters.

Ronan and Embassy Pictures have confidence in the film, and the early trial screening has created a good reputation, which is also conducive to promotion.

In addition, the classification of "The Bourne Shadows" was successfully classified into the ranks of PG-13, which can win more theaters for the film.

How come there are more than 2500 theaters.

Matt Damon is also a selling point. He is currently filming "Eleven Arhats" and will soon be transferred to the announcement of "The Bourne".

Ronan thought of this film when he first saw George Clooney, but "Eleven Arhats" is an adaptation and remake of the 1960 version of "Eleven Arhats", and the copyright has always been in the hands of Warner Bros.

This is the case with too many high-selling works in Hollywood. Ronan can take advantage of the shortcomings to obtain the copyrights of those works that have deep memories in advance. The advantage of foresight has played an extremely important role.

Before Jessica Felton left, Ronan invited: "I will have a moving party next weekend. Do you have time?"

"Next weekend?" Jessica Felton thought for a while: "I have been working on the post-editing of "Resident Evil" recently. I have been busy for so long, so I should take a break. Okay, I will go to your house to participate. Party."

Ronan said, "The invitation letter has not been printed yet. After it is printed, I will send someone to the editing room."

Sending away Jessica Felton, Ronan got off work early today and returned to North Hollywood to start packing up, preparing to officially move into Beverly Hills. The future world has been renovated.

All the utensils and supplies in the new home have been purchased. In fact, there are not many things to pack. The main ones are the computers, books and some materials used by Ronan, which need to be moved to the study of the future world.

Ronan never interrupted his self-charging. Only books and materials were packed in six large cardboard boxes.

This doesn't even include the contents of the three suitcases he asked David and Fincher to drive by himself.

At the new home, two guards in their forties have been recruited. The maintenance work of the manor, including trees, gardens and equipment, has been outsourced to a housekeeping service company that has cooperated with Tom Cruise for more than a decade.

This housekeeping service company specializes in providing first-class services to the rich and famous, not only manor services, but also party organizations and other activities.

Since the chef is not yet in place, Ronan's moving party was also handed over to this company to prepare.

Ronan is hiring chefs and requires that he must be proficient in the preparation of Eastern and Western dishes, so it is a bit difficult to find suitable candidates.

There are relatively few chefs in the West who specialize in Eastern cuisine.

In addition, Ronan recruited a housekeeper and two female workers. The female workers are mainly responsible for the sanitation of the interior of the world and the manor roads and squares in the futureThe housekeeper coordinates the daily affairs of the manor.

"Nikia, you should communicate well with the organizer of the party. Don’t be too formal. It’s easy and fun." Ronan sat in the huge living room and said to the housekeeper standing next to the sofa: "After the invitation is ready, , According to the list I provided, let David and Finch send them. They both know the corresponding location, and I will call again to confirm."

"Okay." The housekeeper's voice was soft, with a standard London accent.

Nikia is a young Russian descendant. She is not very tall and a bit thin. Because of political problems in the 1980s, her family fled to the UK and successfully applied for British citizenship. After graduating from high school, she took a butler course in a professional school. I also got relevant certificates, and worked as a butler for a female singer in the UK before.

The female singer later married, Nikia became unemployed and came to Los Angeles because of her high salary in the United States.

In the United States, many people like to hire a British butler.

Nikia was very lucky. When she first came to Los Angeles, she met Ronan's recruitment butler and got the job smoothly.
