Chapter 159: The Dark Knight

Police Movie .....

Oliver's eyes lit up when he heard these three words, "Qiu, do you have a script for a police movie?"

"Of course. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Han Qiu smiled, "Since I said so, it will definitely not disappoint you." ”

Oliver exclaimed, "Can you show me? Of course, if we're satisfied, we'll pay Warner!"

"I naturally believe you, my old friend. ”

Han Qiu continued: "In a few days, I will send the script to your mailbox, and then we will talk about it in detail." ”

"Okay, no problem. Oliver laughed and responded.

Hanging up the phone, Han Qiu leaned back on the sofa and pondered.

In fact, as soon as he heard Oliver talk about police movies, Han Qiu had a vague idea in his heart, and this idea appeared a long time ago, but at that time, he was busy talking about Journey to the West, so he put this matter aside for the time being.

Now Oliver's call undoubtedly hooked his interest.

Han Qiu was thinking about it, and Zhou Yuxin walked down from the stairs in thin pajamas.

"Han Qiu, what are you thinking?" she said, leaning lazily into Han Qiu's arms.

Han Qiu ruffled her hair and said with a smile: "Yuxin, tell me, can justice defeat evil every time?"

"Justice and evil?" Zhou Yuxin was stunned for a moment, and said without thinking: "I definitely support justice." ”

After speaking, she looked at Han Qiu's teasing smile, suddenly reacted, and exclaimed, "You won't support the big villain, right?"

"It's not that I don't support it, but objectively say that the two opposites of good and evil are opposites. Han Qiu explained, "Let's take police and gangster movies as an example, the police and the bandits are opposites, but the police are not necessarily righteous, and the bandits are not necessarily evil, Infernal Affairs is a good example." ”

"So, I thought, shoot a real evil villain, and then shoot a real hero. ”

"That's right. Zhou Yuxin nodded, but then wondered: "Then what did you mean by asking at the beginning? Justice cannot defeat evil?"

Hearing this, Han Qiu's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Some villains are very rebellious, they will cause sabotage, and they will do some bad things to show that they are different. And the real evil, he will start from people's hearts and crush step by step, and eventually destroy people's faith. ”

Saying that, Han Qiu sighed: "This is the real evil, the word villain no longer has so much weight to describe them." ”

Zhou Yuxin felt like she was listening to a book from heaven, and felt that the person Han Qiu said was like a myth.

The real evil?

She wondered, "So, are you going to make a movie like this?"

"That's right. Han Qiu smiled, "A friend from the United States called me just now, and I suddenly had this idea. ”

Zhou Yuxin blinked, "Okay, I support you!"

Han Qiu nodded and smiled, and Zhou Yuxin asked again: "By the way, what is the name of this movie?"

Han Qiu slowly spit out four words, word by word: "Dark Knight!"

.........

After chatting with Zhou Yuxin, Han Qiu had an extra task in his leisurely life every day.

That's the script for writing the Dark Knight.

The Dark Knight can be said to be a superhero movie, or it can be said to be a realistic cop movie.

Because this superhero is estimated to be the weakest one in American history, he has no superpowers, no black technology, only a good skill, only a suit and a chariot that surpasses a little bit of technology in this era.

It can be said that in the face of other superheroes with all kinds of bizarre superpowers, he is definitely the one who has been completely blown up.

His name is: Batman!

This is a jealous and hateful rich second generation, and his opponent this time is a supervillain who can be ranked on the villain list in film history:

Clown!

This is an extremely twisted, evil villain to the bone. It was he who transformed Batman from a high-profile city hero into a dark knight who could only walk underground!

He is also one of the few villains who can defeat superheroes and complete all of his plans.

In his heart, although he is dead, he is still glorious!!

In the study, Han Qiu used words to describe Batman and Joker. Batman's character is well described, righteous, jealous and hateful, and so on. But the clown is too difficult to portray, and it seems that throwing all the evil words on his head is not enough to write about this man with a twisted heart.

Han Qiu muttered as he wrote: "Yankees are used to watching movies where superheroes beat up villains, so now you can watch movies where superheroes are beaten by villains." ”

"This is a big surprise~~~"

........

This time, Han Qiu wrote very slowly, it took him more than 20 days to write the script, and there were many ideas in his mind, which could not be written at all. This kind of feeling, which can only be understood and cannot be expressed, can only be shown to the audience when the director shoots it with a camera.

After the script was written, Han Qiu compiled it into an email and sent it to Oliver. As for the script, for safety, he didn't give Quan, but just provided a synopsis.

Three days later, Oliver called.

Oliver opened his mouth and sighed as soon as he opened his mouth: "Qiu, your script is simply too dark!"

Han Qiu: "......"

"What the hell are you trying to say...."

Oliver exclaimed, "I want to say, the story is good, we at Warner decided to buy it!"

Han Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, he thought that the clown had scared Warner's people away.

"Okay, if you like it, but.... I'm not going to sell it!"

"Not for sale?" Oliver was stunned, and he quickly said, "We will definitely give you a satisfactory price, even higher than the last time in Infernal Affairs!"

Han Qiu shook his head, "No, no, no, Oliver, you made a mistake, it's not a matter of money or not." ”

"Have you forgotten who I am?"

Oliver was stunned again, what kind of identity do you have? Han Banxian?

Han Qiu smiled: "My friend, I'm a director, not just a screenwriter." ”

Oliver suddenly said, yes, this guy is a big director in China!

But.....

Oliver wondered, "Do you want to shoot it yourself?"

"Then why did you give us the script again?"

Han Qiu replied: "Because the IP of Batman is in your hands, I have to give you money if I want to shoot it." ”

"So, in order not to waste this money, let's cooperate with the two of us, Huaxian and Warner. ”

"......." Oliver was speechless, is this really just to save this royalty?

"This... I need to react to the higher-ups. Oliver thought for a moment, but did not refuse, nor did he agree.

"Okay. Han Qiu then reminded: "However, as the screenwriter of the Dark Knight, and as the director, it is the best choice for me to complete this story." ”

"Hopefully... You Warners can think about it. ”

Oliver nodded: "Okay, I'll get back to you in a few days." ”

With that, Oliver hung up the phone.

He turned on the computer and looked at the story of the Dark Knight above, and the more he watched it, the more satisfied he felt, and he felt that Warner could not just miss it for nothing.

After thinking about it, he got up and left his office, took out a printed script, and walked upstairs.

A moment later, Oliver came to the outside of the office of his immediate boss, Bill, and after a moment's hesitation, he took a deep breath and knocked lightly on the door.

"Please come in. Bill Lang said.

Seeing Oliver come in, he asked, "How is it, did that Huaxia man agree?"

Oliver shook his head, then nodded again, and said, "He has one condition. ”

"What conditions? As long as the asking price is not too outrageous, we can agree to him. ”

Oliver showed a hint of helplessness on his face: "He said he wanted to work with us on this movie. ”

Bill nodded: "Yes, he is welcome to invest." ”

"And he's going to direct the film himself. ”

After Oliver said this, Bill was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to take it.

He frowned and said, "He's going to direct it himself? Does he have the ability? I don't want to waste a huge investment." ”

Oliver hurriedly said good things for Han Qiu: "BOSS, Qiu is an extremely good director, his works have won the first place at the annual box office many times in China, and recently, he won the Best Director at the Xiangjiang Academy Awards!"

"By the way, the Infernal Affairs Affair we filmed last time was also bought from him. ”

Hearing this, Bill's expression softened a little, but he still hesitated a little: "Xiangjiang Academy Awards~~ But that's just an honor that belongs to Huaxia, which won't work in our United States." ”

Moreover, the recognition of him by Chinese audiences does not mean that American audiences also recognize him. It's too risky to let him direct. ”

Oliver was aware of this fact, but he still didn't want to give up, "But, we have to try it too, and we have to back down before we try, it's not our Warner style." ”

"The risk is only certain, we must find a way to minimize the risk! Also, this risk is not only borne by us Warner, but also by Huaxian Company in Qiu. ”

"Moreover, the Dark Knight was written by Qiu, and he is the only one who knows the story best, so it should be better for him to direct it!"

Bill was silent, and although Oliver's words made sense, there were still too many potential risks.

In the end, Bill gave Oliver an answer, just like Oliver's answer to Han Qiu before.

"I'll react to the board, after all, the money is in their hands. ”

Oliver nodded, "Okay, boss, good luck!"

........

Four days later, Han Qiu, who was far away in the magic capital, received a call from Warner, who said that they had preliminarily agreed to Han Qiu's plan, but they would send someone to negotiate with him for specific details.

However, Han Qiu refused their request to send someone over.

He said: "Don't bother you, I just want to go to the United States recently, and we'll see you in the United States then!"
