“Erik, met anything difficult, I discovered that you are recently very……different?” On a break once, Jeff could not resist and asked finally. Regarding the child of the old friend, he very much cared.
“Is very obvious?“Erik has gawked, asked.
Jeff said with a smile: “Certainly, writes on your face simply.“
“Perhaps, because I found the goal. You know that humans, once had the ideal, the whole person will become very excited.“
“, What goal, can you say that to me?“
“Certainly,“ Erik replied: “I have decided that I must be a director. I was creating my first scriptrecently, in two days I will finish.“
“Become ……Director?“Jeff is somewhat surprised, the subconsciousness wants to open the mouth to persuade Erik to not aim too high, but then remembered that this child has only just emerged from mourning his father’s death, to find a goal, and swallowed the words.
In Erik body contains a soul of middle–aged person, obeserving Jeff ‘s face slightest movement, Erik knows that he wanted to say anything, but actually smiled has not cared. After all, this is Hollywood, every year thousands of people come here from all over the world to pursue a dream of movies, but the success belongs to the few and Jeff having this idea is normal.
“That ……When your script has written, can show me. Must know that in the past I also oncewanted to be an actor, once my appearance is not like as it is now,“ Jeff has patted his large belly, then said: “In the past I was very handsome. You must know that I have also participated for a small role in “The Godfather“, in an instant, already these many years.“
Erik was somewhat stunned, cannot think that Jeff also has such past, but quickly relaxed,here is Hollywood, in this world the biggest movie factory, nothing here is impossible.
“Does not have the issue, when the time comes you can help me make some comments.“Erikreplied, so that can make Jeff help to have a look in the script to have any loophole.
Although Erik already as far as possible revised 1988 that script, but actually cannotguarantee that does not have the careless mistake. But Jeff as an outsider, can discover in thescript very easily some inopportune things.
Two people chatted some, as several guests entered the dining room, Erik goes forward to greet the guests hastily.
After a day of work, Erik went home quickly, has had the supper in a hurry, starts thematter writing “Jurassic Park“ novel and script.
“Hello, what can I do for you ?“Just entered to printing shop, a somewhat thin black female clerk welcomed warmly.
Erik pulls out manuscript from bag: “I would like a few copies of this manuscript.“
The black girl looked at thick manuscript, and her eyes light up slightly, the smiling face onface was brighter: “Sir, can I look at it?“
“No problem,“ Erik has handed over the manuscript.
The black girl has not paid attention to the manuscript content, but counted the number of pages : “Probably more than 300 pages, make that 300 pages. Every copy 30 US dollars, how many copies sir?“
Man is about 40 years old, the height is less than one meter seven, actually appears verysturdy, brown stubble on chin,slightly curved nose, wearing gold–rimmed eyeglasses, slightly bald forehead,the whole person is exuding bookish feeling.
“Welcome visits, Sir, waits a bit?“
Brown haired man nodded, nodded hello to Erik very much politely, sits down by Erik.The black girl stops the work in hand temporarily,fast makes one coffee to brown haired man:“Sir, just more than ten minutes , please first drink the cup coffee.“
The man received the coffee to say thanks, his eyes follow the black girl‘s form to see thatthick one stack of manuscript, the eyes move slightly, in the shop only then three people,the man could not help but look at Erik.
“Takeing the liberty I am asking, is that your draft?“
Erik nods saying:“Yes, a novel, I just finished, plans to make several photocopies .“
“You look like a high–school student, you are really fierce, I am unable to achieve these.“
“Thank you, actually this is my first novel,I do not have muchconfidence.“
“No, must believe oneself. That, can I read your novel?“ saying that the man pulled out aname card to give Erik saying:“Just, I have a small publishing house.“
“Young people, can I know your name?“
“Erik Williams,“ Erik is not hypocritical, replied directly. By his previous generation life experience,how unable to see that Michael expression is containing anything at this time.Although does not have the plan to give “Jurassic Park” to small publishing house, butdoes not hinder him to get acquainted with Michael Claus. If “Jurassic Park“ had been rejectedby these well–known publishing houses, this is also a choice.
