Link disagreed with this view. He liked movies and enjoyed watching classic films. His future goal was to create many classic movies as well.

The reason he wasn't deliberately pursuing the artistry of film at this stage was because he didn't have enough time and money to make such films.

With sufficient funds, his pursuit of film would also increase, and he would strive to make films into classics, gaining both audience support and praise from his peers.

"Link, you mentioned making low-budget films because of insufficient funds. Does this mean that as long as you have enough funds, you can make better films?"

Ms. Stahl asked, holding her interview notebook.

"Yes, I am confident enough."

"Link, based on your previous interviews, your filmmaking techniques are mainly self-taught, without systematic study. Why are you so confident?"

"Because I'm a genius. Okay, just kidding. After working on two films, I have a more complete understanding of the job of a director, and I have also accumulated some experience. I know how to do a good job as a director, and I also know how to make movies that audiences like to watch. Compared to when I was filming 'Buried,' I can almost be my own teacher now."

Link said confidently.

Ms. Stahl smiled slightly, "You just said that you have been practicing on two films, but some media say that 'The Blair Witch Project' is also your film. What do you think of this statement?"

"That's a misunderstanding. I was the planner and investor of this documentary, not the director. The director is Ed Myrick, and he did a great job on 'The Blair Witch Project.'"

Link smiled.

Seeing that he refused to admit it, Ms. Stahl began to ask him about his views on the future of the film industry, as well as his views on the 'Link-style movie' model that is prevalent in Hollywood at this stage.

Link believed that with the end of the Cold War, the global film market would usher in a period of rapid development.

The United States is the most developed country in the world, with the largest film production base and the largest box office market. The American and global film industries will get better and better in the future.

This can also be seen from the growth of the North American film box office in recent years.

However, he was not optimistic about the rumored 'Link-style movie' model, believing that excessive chasing of trends would lead to serious homogenization of film works, increased competition, and the consequences would not be good. He suggested that everyone carefully learn from the so-called 'Link model'.

Ms. Stahl asked a few more questions.

Link answered methodically.

The interview lasted for 80 minutes.

After the CBS interview, Link took a short break and then welcomed an interview with Graydon Carter, the editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair.

After being busy in Los Angeles for a few days and dealing with many shrewd media people, Link was physically and mentally exhausted.

After completing all the interviews, he temporarily left Los Angeles and came to Miami for vacation, and also to see how 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective' was filming.

"Hey, tycoon, welcome! You're all over the newspapers and TV lately. How did you find time to fly to the set? Oh, right, you're here to see Monica, aren't you?"

On the set of 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective' in Miami, Jin Carrey enthusiastically greeted Link when he appeared.

He was wearing a brightly colored shirt and red pants with black stripes. His hair was fixed into the shape of an airplane head with hair gel. This outfit was the character setting of the male protagonist, Fan Dura.

Probably because he was so involved in the acting, Jin Carrey also raised his eyebrows and made exaggerated facial expressions when he spoke, and his tone was also very strange.

"Yes, I'm here to visit the set. How is the movie going? Are there any difficulties?"

"There are no difficulties. The only thing affecting our filming progress is the weather. The weather here is very hot. Look, I've only been standing for a while and my forehead is covered in sweat."

Jin Carrey wiped his forehead, scraped off a layer of sweat, raised his hand to wipe it on Link's clothes, but stopped halfway, suddenly realizing that this was not filming, but talking to the movie investor.

He smiled and retracted his hand, wiping it on his shirt.

"Honey, you're here."

Monica walked over with a smile and threw herself into his arms, kissing him passionately.

Monica was also here filming today. The character she played had two identities. On the surface, she was Police Captain Elwes, and secretly she was the mastermind behind the kidnapping of the dolphin Snowflake.

She was wearing a gray women's professional outfit with a white shirt inside. She had a slender waist, plump hips, and a surging chest, making her very hot and sexy.

In order to adapt to the role, her hair was cut short and dyed reddish-brown, with fluffy curls. The whole person looked very capable and had the temperament of a policewoman.

Link hugged her and couldn't put her down.

Seeing that the two of them wouldn't be finished in a short time, Jin Carrey tactfully retreated to the side and stopped director Tom Shadyac, who was about to come over to say hello, asking him not to disturb Link and Monica's intimacy for the time being.

After meeting with Monica, Jin Carrey and others, the crew started filming again.

"Scene 34, Take 1, Action!"

The clapper loader slapped the clapperboard in front of the camera, recording the shot number.

The cameraman began to work under the direction of director Tom Shadyac.

"Who let this veterinarian in?"

Monica looked at Fan Dura, played by Jin Carrey, with an displeased expression, and asked her subordinates.

"Lieutenant Elwes, he came with Miss Robinson."

The current plot is that when the male protagonist Fan Dura was investigating the disappearance of the mascot dolphin, Proger, the leader of the Miami Dolphins, was killed.

Fan Dura, this pet detective, also ran to the scene to investigate the case, which aroused the dissatisfaction of Officer Elwes.

And Miss Robinson in the play is the heroine, Ma Tisha Robinson.

This role is played by Courteney Cox, who is also Monica Geller, the second female lead in the future "Friends". She was selected through the crew's audition. Jin Carrey and Director Shadyac thought she was suitable, and Link did not object.

There is no mistake in one song, one hair, one content, one appearance, one in one look!

"This is the job of the police, it has nothing to do with you, a pet detective. We will take the initiative to find you when we find maggots during the autopsy."

Monica said with a cold face.

"Hahaha!"

The policemen at the scene laughed loudly, mocking Fan Dura's work.

"Buddy, face reality."

Fan Dura's friend advised.

"No, she's right. If it were me, I wouldn't want anyone on the scene to point out my mistakes."

Jin Carrey made an exaggerated expression and shook his head, leaving the set.

Monica turned to look at the people around her, with a inexplicable expression on her face.

"Cut!"

"Jim, pay attention to managing your expressions, let's shoot again."

Director Tom Shadyac shouted from behind the monitor.

"Tom, why do you only say shoot again every time, but you don't tell me where the problem is? If you don't point it out, how can I correct it?"

Jin Carrey said, making a funny face.

"How should I guide you? Every time you shoot, your expressions are different. If you can do the expressions you've done before exactly, I can guide you, but can you restore the previous expressions?"

Tom Shadyac said.

Jin Carrey frowned, showing a difficult expression, obviously he couldn't do it.

Jin Carrey has a problem. Every time he starts performing, his expressions become very exaggerated, raising his eyebrows, rolling his eyes, or pursing his lips, etc., and every performance is improvised. The things that come out in the previous performance may not be possible in the next performance.

According to Jin Carrey, his way of performing is related to his childhood experiences. When he was a child, he often made funny faces to make his family happy. Later, he became an actor, and every time he stood in front of the camera, he would involuntarily make exaggerated expressions.

This way of performing can be seen in all his works, including "The Mask" and "The Truman Show", etc.

Some people find it funny and interesting, while others find it exaggerated and annoying.

This comedic way of performing has made him a top Hollywood actor, but it has also limited his development.

The crew continued filming.

When filming the second time, Jin Carrey's performance was indeed different from the first time, but it was also funny and interesting. Laughter could occasionally be heard during filming.

And Monica, who plays the villain, still behaved very coldly, disdaining Fan Dura, the pet detective, and also worried about Fan Dura discovering any important clues.

This character has two identities, which is more complicated to play, but Monica's goal is to become an acting actor, and she usually pays attention to honing her acting skills. She performed well when playing this role.
