(Q - the Artist: I pick up on what you say, one day you told us that we had to go back…, well that he had to build the hunt backwards. In
fact, it's a bit what Max Valentin did, but the fact of doing that, we start from a precise point, we have a first idea, but before inventing it on the map of France, we take
landmarks and distances, finally, we take a first notion, in any case of the terrain and the geographical location, in any case most certainly with a 2nd map. Couldn't he have already invented a first part on.
this 2nd card and transpose that onto the first?)
MB: no I don't think so, he did the classic work of people who do surprise rallies, that is to say he defined an arrival point, which he tried to make mysterious, to make it a little complex to find, he created a route and he said to himself, well, we'll start from there. The goal is to get there and then I'm going to place clues, things and things, and then with a level of complexity that I try to, as he said in such an impressive way at the time , to calibrate, good approximate caliber but whatever.
That's it, it was a job..., that's what he did, it's nothing else. He made a surprise rally with an arrival point and on this arrival point, he grafted his famous discovery to say Well there you go, we're going to add a little spice to the story and then at the same time, this find allows me since there, it was a marketing product, we were no longer quite in a surprise rally anyway and he said he was good in the end, I have to keep the hand, I have to be able to dose it in relation to my sponsor, possibly make it last a little, etc.
That's why this final chase is so complicated to..., and why it's so complicated, especially to discuss it because that's what was the..., that's the only lever he has kept, which he had aspired to keep in his hand. It was this lever of the finale which gave him full powers over the moment when the hunt was found, he could decide to extend it or shorten it.
I've been explaining this for a long time, but it seems to be difficult for many to accept.
