Chapter 152 Want to buy the script? No!
'Chen An's new film has grossed over 1.1 million US dollars in North America and is being screened simultaneously around the world. It is predicted that the global box office will exceed million. It seems that there is no hope for domestic introduction at present.'

Domestic media immediately reported the incident.

The audience was even more curious about what he was filming?
None of his films can be imported.

It’s a pity that the current transnational piracy industry is not yet developed enough, otherwise they would immediately take a look at piracy to see what it is.

As for the netizens who have seen it, they began to speak generously on the Internet:

"It's an R-rated movie. Although it's not a Level III movie, the images are very shocking. If you eat while watching it, then congratulations, you don't have to eat."

"If you go down one level, it will be 18+. I guess there is no chance of seeing it in China. I'll just have to wait for the disc."

"When I saw the science fiction film directed by Chen An, I was speechless. This is definitely a world-class film. Chen An is not on the same level as the group of domestic directors who focus on the hardships of rural life!"

"The plot is fascinating, and the big screen is very impactful. Although the movie is good, the pictures are really a bit disgusting."

Some people who have been to the United States or studied abroad posted comments and answers on the Internet.

It shocked domestic netizens and made them want to watch it even more.

Now that the movie is about to be released in Hong Kong, some people are planning to fly directly to Hong Kong to watch a movie and see a science fiction movie directed by a domestic director.

Even when Van Loon's hit "Rush Hour" was released, domestic audiences didn't have such high expectations, because they were used to watching action movies anyway.

But science fiction films are different. In China, a place with a barren science fiction population, a domestic director made a science fiction film that shocked the world. For the few science fiction fans in China, not being able to see it would be more painful than killing me.

Han Sanping had no choice. He had watched the movie, and halfway through he knew that this thing had no chance of getting in.

The introduction plan was directly rejected.

Chen An is already attending the celebration party held by Warner. The box office has exceeded 100 million US dollars, and the global market performance is also good. The final box office is expected to be 200 million US dollars. The production cost of 30 million is simply amazing.

The banquet was hosted by Vice President Barry, who was also one of the important driving forces behind the promotion of this film.

Holding a glass of champagne, he was chatting with his colleagues from the company and was extremely happy.

I originally thought that my brother-in-law was just a scumbag, but who knew he had a good vision and found an excellent director.

The profits of two consecutive movies were doubled. As the main promoter of the project, I originally just wanted to let my brother-in-law give it a try and then just live a simple life.

Who knew that the two movies would become more successful than the last.

If this continues, I will want to bring down my hometown directly. Of course, it is not impossible.

"Chen, Jerry finding you is the best choice he has made in his life." After the conversation, Barry found Chen An and clinked his glasses with him.

"Thank you for the compliment. Jerry played a big role as well."

"Him? He just needs to tell me and then notify you. He doesn't do much else." Barry, as my brother-in-law, spoke bluntly.

Faced with his brother-in-law's sarcasm, Jerry's face almost swelled up. Just as he was about to speak, he was swept by Barry's scrutinizing eyes and swallowed back.

I used to have a rebellious soul, until I met the big sinus cure given by my brother-in-law, which cured me.

"Chen, do you know Bruce Wayne?"

"It's hard not to know, Mr. Barry."

Hearing the other party suddenly mention Batman, Chen An couldn't help but think to himself, is this project going to be restarted so soon?

As far as he knows, the Batman project has been suspended since the Disney-style "Batman and Ron" in 1997 failed at the box office.

The production cost was 1.3 million, and the global box office was 2.3 million, but it couldn't even recover the cost and distribution fees. In the end, I felt that the happy atmosphere was not good enough, and I wanted to return to the original dark style.

He first wrote a script about Commissioner Gordon, but it was too dark and disgusting, so he rejected it.

Not only are there contradictions and conflicts, but this old white man is also given a disgusting and despicable love story.

Finally, when we had no choice but to start semi-openly recruiting scripts from the outside, Nolan came to us.

Originally, Nolan didn't want to shoot a film on this subject, and only started writing the script at the suggestion of his wife.

"The company is planning to reboot this guy, and you know he's so popular, I was wondering if you could write a script?"

Barry asked this versatile director who wrote and directed his own film, with a smile on his face.

Chen An nodded and thought for a moment, "Then can I guide him? I think I am the most suitable director for the script I wrote."

So you want to write the script yourself. You want to get it for free, right?

"Oh Chen, stop joking. I believe in your ability, but if you let a Chinese direct this movie, the audience will drool at you before it even starts." Barry seemed a little bit unbelievable when facing Chen An's request.

Since there is no other way, Chen An shook his head helplessly. Let's wait for you to write it yourself. "Sorry, Mr. Barry, I have no plans to sell the script for the time being. I'm sorry."

"No problem, Chen. Nevertheless, Warner still looks forward to working with you." Barry didn't think much of it. He just asked casually.

Since he is unwilling, forget it. After all, such an excellent director is a good partner.

The two chatted for a while, and after the other left, Jerry said, "Chen, do you want to film Batman?"

"Of course I would like to take a picture of such a popular guy, but it seems that I have almost no chance at the moment."

Chen An did not hide his thoughts. Since he chose to develop under Warner, Batman must be a project that he was interested in.

But for now, my identity has become an obstacle. Although my two films are very successful, the other party still has not thought of letting me shoot.

"It's a pity that I can't get involved in this kind of project, otherwise I would definitely choose you. This is the extent of my brother-in-law's achievements. He has no vision at all."

Jerry, who had been holding it in for a long time, complained viciously, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

Chen An smiled and didn't care. Jerry didn't dare to breathe when the other party was here just now, but now he is pretending here, which looks really funny.

"But it's not completely without a chance. From what I've seen from your brother-in-law, he should just be asking. The project has just started and there's no script yet. If the script you write in-house at Warner is not up to standard, I still have a chance."

It's almost the same. I guess the script that Warner is currently writing is the one that was killed.

I'll try it myself when the time comes. If they really don't give me a chance, there's nothing I can do.

At present, Jerry naturally hopes that Chen An can give guidance. Then, who else can take the position of producer but me? The thought of being the producer of Batman is exciting.

As the most successful American comic hero, his popularity is almost the same as Superman, and sometimes he can even be said to be number one.

It is definitely a top project even in Hollywood.

If he could be the producer of Batman, he would be willing to be the president of Warner Bros. and win the Oscar for Best Picture.

To the people of the United States, Batman is no different from China's Monkey King.

They are equally well-known. When Chinese children are young, they watch Sun Wukong and learn how to play with the monkey stick. When American children watch Batman, they know not to take their parents to dark alleys at night.
