Yu Dong and the others left one day late and were intercepted by Spielberg.

Spielberg came in person.

After meeting Yu Dong, he started to accuse Yu Dong, "YU, you are also the screenwriter of "Men in Black" and you have already arrived in New York. Why don't you go and see it?"

Yu Dong and Spielberg were also old friends, so he naturally knew he was joking, so he smiled and replied, "It's useless if I go. With you and Barry, there will be no problems with the movie."

"But didn't you also join the team of "Sniper Phone Booth" and follow the whole process? I heard from Joe that you also had a guest role in it."

Spielberg's words were full of jealousy, while Yu Dong complained, "The filming of "Sniper Phone Booth" only lasted eleven days. As for the cameo, I just entered the camera like the passers-by around me. I didn't have any role at all."

"Go and see the scene, everyone wants to see you."

Spielberg came over in person, so of course Yu Dong had to give him face, "Steven, I promise you, but I may not be able to stay for a few days because I have other things to be busy with."

"I know." Spielberg smiled, "I have seen it on the news. You are writing a new book recently. The beginning of the new book is very interesting, and I am also looking forward to the follow-up story. Give me two days, one day

Leave it on the set, and on another day, we will discuss the script of "The Martian"."

"Did the news come out so quickly? I didn't pay much attention to it."

Spielberg laughed, "You sold more than 10,000 copies of the "Resident Evil" game in one day. Of course Sony is eager to make news. In fact, I am not surprised by the results of the signing. What surprised me was the signing event.

So many interesting things happened. I specifically asked Jimmy if they were deliberately designed by you, and he told me no."

"Jimmy is telling the truth. What happened at the autograph session was all an accident."

"Including you reading excerpts from the new book?"

"Of course." Yu Dong smiled and nodded, "If this section is a design, then the book club section is naturally a design as well."

Spielberg patted his forehead and said, "That's right."

…

After Spielberg left, Yu Dong apologized to Cheng Yanqiu, "Teacher Cheng, I'm sorry, I wanted to take you for a walk."

Cheng Yanqiu said with a smile, "It doesn't matter, I would also like to visit the crew. Watching them film is quite interesting."

Yu Dong was indeed sorry for this. His original intention was to take Cheng Yanqiu to have a good time, but so many things happened in the middle. First, Wang Jiawei and Liu Weiqiang suddenly visited, and then Spielberg intercepted them.

After the affairs of "Men in Black" are over, they don't have much time left, and they have to meet Alice Munro later.

After meeting Alice Munro, they were about to rush back. There were still many things to do at home.

I had made an appointment with Li Xiaolin before to visit Mr. Ba Jin in early May.

After visiting the old gentleman, the selection for the short film competition in Deep Space Lane will begin.

Moreover, the first class of drama creation major, that is, Jia Zhangke and his friends, are also about to graduate this year. As teachers of drama creation, Yu Dong, Bi Feiyu and others are still busy.

"I don't think we have much time this time. Let's go shopping during the summer vacation." Yu Dong gently stroked Cheng Yanqiu's hair and said softly.

"As long as we are together, it doesn't matter where we go." Cheng Yanqiu smiled and pushed Yu Dong out: "Go and inform Teacher Bi and the others quickly. I guess they are still waiting to go to Los Angeles."

Yu Dong nodded, and the two of them walked to Bi Feiyu's room.

Before reaching the door, I heard discussions coming from inside the room, which sounded lively.

I knocked on the door and it was Wang Hailin who opened the door.

"Brother Dong, Teacher Cheng."

Yu Dong stretched his head and looked inside. All the students were inside.

The room was not big, so Bi Feiyu and the others had a table of cards in the middle, while everyone else found their own places to sit.

Seeing Yu Dong coming, the students all stood up respectfully.

As Yu Dong walked inside, he asked, "What are you doing?"

Qin Yi shook the newspaper in his hand and said, "Teacher Yu, we are watching the news about the autograph session. You, Teacher Bi and Teacher Yu Hua were praised very much in the news."

Jia Zhangke on the side patted Qin Yi on the head: "What are you talking about... isn't everything in it true?"

Wang Hailin also echoed, "Yes, according to me, the news is still written in a subtle way. Brother Dong and Teacher Bi are half of the Chinese literary world. It is an honor for foreigners like them to come to the United States."

"Yes, yes, senior brother Wang is right."

"It's subtle."

Other students also agreed.

Bi Feiyu, who was playing cards, smiled at Yu Hua and said, "Look, our Jinyi students are bound to die of hunger. Their ability to flatter others is better than the last."

Yu Hua nodded seriously, "Yes, your school spirit is indeed pure. Of course, it is you teachers who are good at teaching. As the old saying goes, a good teacher cannot be a good teacher...that's wrong, that's wrong, it should be a famous teacher who produces a good disciple."

Bi Feiyu glanced at Yu Hua, then turned to look at Yu Dong, "You come here at this time, what do you want?"

Yu Dong nodded: "I really have something to do. You are all here, so I don't need to inform you one by one that we won't go to Los Angeles tomorrow."

"If you don't go to Los Angeles, where will you go?" Wang Hailin asked.

Yu Dong pointed to his feet, "Still in New York."

"What's going on?" Bi Feiyu asked.

Yu Dong smiled and said: "Unfortunately for Jimmy, Spielberg came to see me just now and invited us to sit on the set of "Men in Black"."

When they heard that they were going to be on the set of "Men in Black", the students all showed excitement.

"It's great to go to the set, and you can also see Spielberg filming."

"Spielberg is the producer and Sonnenfeld is the director."

"So is Sonnenfeld."

"I heard that the investment in this movie is nearly 100 million US dollars, and the scene must be huge."

"I heard that all the money is spent on visual effects, and the shooting scenes may not necessarily be big."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It's a pity that we can't see what they do later."

"It's useless to look at it, we don't know how to do it."

"Is there any chance for us to make a cameo this time?"

"I don't know."

…

Yu Dong pressed his hands and signaled them to be quiet: "Everyone, listen to me, this is a temporary arrangement. It is different from "Sniper Phone Booth". When the time comes, I will try my best to discuss with Spielberg so that you can study on the set.

But before that, please don’t move around on the set."

"I understand, Teacher Yu."

Yu Dong nodded, "Okay, you can play, I'll leave first."

"Goodbye, Teacher Yu."

Yu Dong turned around with Cheng Yanqiu and had just walked two steps when he turned around again and waved to Qin Yi, "Qin Yi, show me the newspaper."

"okay."

Qin walked over with the newspaper in his hand, and pointed at the news in the newspaper thoughtfully, "Teacher Yu, this is where I praise you."

This is a copy of USA Today. It looks colorful, with mostly pictures and less text.

The news about the book signing is the same. There are two big pictures on it. One is the picture of Yu Dong immersed in signing autographs. The other is the picture of Yu Dong attending the book club later. The second picture shows Bi Feiyu and Yu Hua.

Also among them.

After leaving Bi Feiyu's house, Yu Dong took a look and Cheng Yanqiu took the newspaper.

"This written report is too little, and the pictures are so big." Cheng Yanqiu muttered.

Yu Dong smiled and said: "This is so attractive. Today's American readers have no time to read those dense news. They would rather see intuitive pictures and concise and powerful news. Although this news does not have many words, it contains the key information.

It’s all already there.”

"Such a big picture does look quite intimidating." Cheng Yanqiu nodded: "Maybe it will be the same in China in the future. People are watching more and more TV and are not willing to read long and lengthy text news."

"I guess so."

Yu Dong smiled. China has indeed gone through such a period. There were more and more pictures in newspapers, more and more colorful colors, and less and less text.

But unlike the United States, this period in China was very short, and it did not take many years to directly transition to a period when print media was almost eliminated.

Later, people didn’t even bother to read graphic news, and preferred to obtain information through short videos.

…

The next day, when Yu Dong and others arrived at the studio, they were filming an outdoor scene.

On a bench by the Hudson River, the two protagonists, Will Smith and Tommy Jones, were sitting on it chatting.

Yu Dong remembers this plot. Agent J, played by Will, has just entered the headquarters of the Men in Black, and his outlook on life has been violently impacted. Agent K is doing some psychological construction for him.

"They will be filming for a long time."

Spielberg came over and said, "We can find a place to sit down first and then come over after they finish."

Yu Dong smiled and said: "It's okay, we'll just look around."
