After 007 starred in the movie "James Bond" (James Bond), the author of the novel "Robert Rudd Rum" felt that such a bad novel could become popular, so he wrote "The Bourne Bourne" in a very short time. The protagonists "Jason Bourne" and 007 There is a lot of similarity in the names of the protagonists of this novel. They are all JS.
