The best director ever

Chapter 262 Letting in a Wolf
Remake copyright?

Han Qiu's expression was a little weird. Grandma herself remakes the stuff of Americans in her previous life, and now the Yankees in this world are going to remake it again?

really echoed an old saying
In the dark, there is a definite number!

"Okay, it's not a big problem." Han Qiu nodded generously and said straightforwardly, "I also hope that more people will see this movie."

"Haha, Director Han, it's a pleasure working with you."

After speaking, Bill got up and took out a contract document from the desk, and handed it to Han Qiu.

"This is a contract for the transfer of copyright."

Han Qiu was smiling all over his face, but his heart was twitching as he opened the contract. On it, various regulations and details had been written in detail, which was similar to the last transfer of the copyright of Infernal Affairs. Now the specific transfer amount and the signatures of the two people were missing. up.

Han Qiu was speechless, Warner moved really fast, this was clearly premeditated for a long time.

"Bill, you, Warner, are really well prepared."

Bill's skin is as thick as a city wall, enough to resist the erosion of alpha rays. Of course, he doesn't care about Han Qiu's teasing, "Hehe, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared."

Han Qiu gently wiped the paper in his hand with his fingers, raised his eyebrows, and said playfully, "Well, let me guess, are other Hollywood companies also interested in Truman?"

He didn't guess randomly. Infernal Affairs can attract so many companies, and Truman certainly can't lose his prestige. If he guesses right, after a while, other companies will also send people to contact him.

Hearing this, Bill and Oliver looked at each other in blank dismay. In fact, they had secretly received news that Paramount, Fox, Columbia and several other companies really had this plan, especially Paramount, which seemed to be quite interested.

Oliver was no longer pretentious, and admitted, "Indeed, we have received news that Paramount and the others also have ideas about Truman."

"However, Director Han, you will definitely choose our Warner in the end, won't you?"

Bill also leaned forward, and said with a smile, "Based on our relationship between Warner and Huaxian, Director Han must of course choose us."

Han Qiu couldn't help laughing, and raised the contract in his hand, "You have all prepared the contract, do I still have room to refuse?"

He doesn't mind selling the rights to the remake to Warner, as Bill said, with the relationship between Warner and Huaxian, this is undoubtedly the best choice.Of course, if other companies approach Han Qiu first, as long as the price is reasonable, he will not refuse anything.

Finally, Han Qiu signed a contract with Bill.Back then, Infernal Affairs sold for 1100 million US dollars, but this time, Han Qiu gave up that fraction and sold it for 1000 million US dollars.

After finishing the copyright of the remake, the three began to discuss the financing of The Matrix.

This time, Han Qiu wanted to label this movie as a Chinese movie, not like The Dark Knight and The Joker. Except for his director, the whole movie is Hollywood stuff.

Therefore, Han Qiu wants to use his Huaxian team to shoot, except for some white actors, all others must be labeled as Huaxia.

If it wasn't for catering to the world movie market, Han Qiu wouldn't bother to use white actors, so he would have used all Chinese actors.But in this way, even if the movie is released all over the world, except in Asia, no matter how good the movie is, the box office in other places will not be much higher.

Just because Chinese people can cater to American blockbusters does not mean that the United States can cater to Chinese blockbusters.

China has been severely invaded by Yankee culture, but the United States has firmly controlled the invasion of Chinese culture.

Every year, Radio and Television restricts the number of imported foreign films, and deliberately takes as much as 20.00% of the box office, in order to curb the invasion of foreign culture.

But in the end, often China's local films still lose to Hollywood blockbusters.

For example, Hollywood, relying on the only ones that can introduce [-] or [-] movies to China, can beat all the local movies in China in terms of box office.

What kind of thing is this?
In recent years, it was Hua Xian who ruled the roost in the country and restrained this defeat.

Otherwise, it is really embarrassing to be always defeated by others with less.

Han Qiu's ultimate goal is that one day, a film composed entirely of Chinese people will become popular all over the world.

That's the only way to represent the complete rise of Chinese movies in the world!

Uh. Although it is a bit difficult, it does not mean that there is no hope. Anyway, what Han Qiu wants is to go step by step.

Take your time, like a bullet flying inside, Master Tang once said.

The steps are too big, and it is easy to pull the egg.

The previous V and the Dark Knight were the first to let the whole world know that Huaxia has such a unique company and such an abnormal director.

The Matrix is ​​the first step in expanding this influence.

Therefore, in this movie, except for a few leading actors, Han Qiu decided to use Chinese people for other important roles, such as the heads of the Human Federation and spiritual leaders like Brother Fa.

Another example is a few outstanding supporting roles that radiate the brilliance of human nature, all of which are played by Chinese people.

Anyway, it's the end of the world, there is no country anyway, and I, Han Banxian, am the director, so I have the final say.

Therefore, after Bill and Oliver learned about Han Qiu's arrangement, they both felt a little strange.They are used to movies that are dominated by Caucasians, and suddenly there is a movie in which 50% of the characters are non-white except for the two protagonists, and they always feel a little uncomfortable.

It's like a thorn stuck in your heart, scratching you uncomfortable, but you can't pull it out.

Is the Human Federation in charge of the Chinese people?The spiritual leader is also a Chinese?This grandma has a leg.

Although these people don't have as many roles as the protagonist, they always feel that something is wrong.

It seems that apart from having more roles, there are no other advantages, right?
After hesitating for a moment, Bill said, "Director Han, isn't the appearance rate of white people too low?"

"Still low?" Han Qiu pretended to be surprised, "The male and female protagonists are both white, and you told me that the appearance rate is low? You know, these are the two characters with the most roles."

"Uh..." Bill was speechless, and his face instantly became embarrassed.Grandma's, that's what I said, but I always feel something is wrong.

Han Qiu was also joking in his heart. If it wasn't for catering to the world film market, he wouldn't give the leading role to white people.

He remembered that there was a director in his previous life who also cooperated with the United States and made a movie called "The Great Wall" that was released globally.The protagonist is also white, and the other supporting roles are almost all Chinese.Although this has something to do with the fact that the movie takes place in China, it is more or less related to catering to the American market.

In the end, the movie box office is not bad in China, but it is so-so in the United States. This is mostly due to the face given by the Chinese, and the Yankees don’t give face to others.As for the evaluation, it is unbearable to look directly at
Anyway, most Chinese people give very low evaluation, let alone the United States.

In the final analysis, this movie is right, and the mistake lies in the poor quality of the movie.

Perhaps, Americans don't buy it, and it has something to do with the background being ancient China.

You don’t have to worry about these things in The Matrix. The plot of the movie is awesome, and the background is also the end of the world when all human beings have finished playing. People of all skin colors gather together to survive.

Hehe, this is the real global village. As for who the village chief is and who is the boss in the village, that is still up to Han Qiu.

And the protagonist is like the number one thug in the village, helping the village deal with the big villain.

Bill is a little entangled now, say that Han Qiu is not giving face, and the protagonist is a white man, say he is giving face, and the village is the boss of the Huaxia people.

"Director Han, I know you are from Huaxia, but the percentage of Chinese people appearing in the movie is too high, right?"

Han Qiu shook his head solemnly, "Yes, I am from the perspective of all human beings, everyone is treated equally, how can I favor that race? Besides, the protagonist is white, and he has the most roles!"

At the end, Han Qiu's tone suddenly rose, emphasizing this indisputable fact.

"This is the end of the world, Bill, you have to understand this."

Bill: "."

He was very speechless, facing the iron-clad fact that the protagonist is white, he couldn't think of how to argue.

Seeing that Bill had nothing to say, Han Qiu deliberately said, "How about I give the leading role to the Chinese and the other roles to the white people, so that the two can be reversed? But in this way, you have to consider It is clear that the movie has a sense of substitution in the hearts of American audiences."

He wasn't worried at all that the Chinese people would have a lump in their hearts about the protagonist of that skin-colored race. Anyway, everyone was used to Hollywood blockbusters, but American audiences were not used to it.

Bill shook his head, "Forget it, but I still hope that Director Han will increase the appearance rate of white people a little bit. It is no longer a question of who is the protagonist. This is very important if you want the movie to be popular with American audiences." .”

"Okay." Han Qiu smiled and narrowed his eyes, and agreed.

Seeing Han Qiu's expression without thinking, Bill was speechless. He still felt that Han Qiu was perfunctory.But compared to the plan of replacing the protagonist with a Chinese, he still prefers the previous arrangement.

"Hey, did I put a wolf into the American market?" Bill sighed helplessly in his heart.
