At the behest of Doug Walter, Jaanna Cruze once again led the team to negotiate with Penguin Pictures, Light Pictures, and DreamWorks representatives.The negotiations were successful, and although no contract has yet been signed, many terms have been agreed upon.Tang Qianqian came back from negotiation and told Li He about the change in Warner Pictures' attitude, and Li He didn't think it was strange."
Ahe, why did Warner Pictures give up the previous conditions, haven't they always insisted on it?"
Tang Qianqian asked curiously.Li He took a break from work, took a sip of tea, and when he heard Tang Qianqian say this, he replied: "Because they realize that they are not our only choice......"
"Why do you say that?"
”"Before working with Warner Pictures, we worked with Weinstein Pictures, a second-tier company, and 'The Seven Deadly Sins' was a huge success in North America for Chinese cinema in all time.After working with Warner Pictures, both "A Dog's Mission" and "Source Code" have achieved great success in North America, which has shown the whole of Hollywood what we are capable of. ”"That said, in addition to Warner Pictures, there are other Hollywood A-list companies that are interested in us."
Tang Qianqian said.Li He touched Tang Qianqian's head: "Yes, that's right, it's not, didn't Paramount come over to negotiate under the introduction of Sister Xuedan!"
”"So why is Warner Pictures interested in Batman?
There are not many precedents for Hollywood studios to invest in Chinese films!
”Tang Qianqian asked.Li He thought for a while and said: "Maybe they see the potential of Batman, the popularity and strength of the Triumvirate of Justice have not been high, and Warner urgently needs a replacement."
It just so happens that the "Batman" comic book is popular in Asia, and it has a certain popularity around the world......
"So Warner Pictures has taken a fancy to Batman?
”"That's right......"
The "Batman" in this world was first created by Li He, and later handed over to the beautiful girl cartoonist Xia Da to complete the comics.Xia Da is worthy of being a very talented cartoonist in China, and according to the general idea provided by Li He, Xia Da created a wonderful Batman comic.The "Batman" comic not only sold more than 5 million copies nationwide, but also gradually spread its fame to Japan, South Korea and other places, which was called the rise of Guoman by the media.However, all of this is thanks to the unsparing promotion of Penguin Comics under Penguin Literature, and "Batman" has its current results.Don't look at the 5 million side physical comic books, "Batman" has an online click-through rate of more than 30 million.Although this data is a bit watery, it at least proves the popularity of "Batman", so Li He dared to shoot the "Batman" trilogy.Li He and Tang Qianqian were chatting, and the editor shouted: "Director, how about taking a look at this version?"
”"Oh!
It's ...... coming" Li He is busy with work again, and now it is the end of September, Li He must complete the post-production work of "The Martian" in mid-October, and start the filming of "Batman: Time to War" at the same time, which is not a small amount of work.Therefore, while speeding up the progress of work, Li He urged the negotiations to proceed as soon as possible.After Li He's urging, Cheng Zhiwen and Wang Changtian both made some concessions, and finally reached an investment intention with Warner Pictures before the National Day.There are many specific contents, but they are roughly the following: First, Warner Pictures participated in the investment and enjoyed part of the copyright.Second, Warner Pictures needed to promote the Batman comics globally.Third, Warner Pictures has the rights to create comic book remakes, film remakes, etc., and the three companies and studios agreed to "Batman" to join "Justice League".There are always many other terms, so I won't repeat them one by one, but when the news of Warner Pictures' investment in "Batman" came out, it immediately caused a heated discussion.Poor Mr.
Wang, who had just announced the good news of his love with Hezhang, was robbed of the headlines by this exciting news, and Mr.
Wang cried and fainted in the toilet.", is Director Li He like that?
That's Warner Pictures!
Actually look up to "Batman"?
”"Upstairs, don't you pay much attention to the news?
The latest news, the North American box office of "Source Code" has reached $132 million, and director Li He is the first non-North American director to open the situation in North America in a row. ”"I think the reason why Warner Pictures is interested in "Batman" is probably because of the possibility of Batman joining the Justice League, after all, the three giants of justice, the Caspian Sea King is a little stretched.""
It would be great if that was the case, I've always been a fan of Master Wei, if I join the Justice League, the picture is too beautiful for me to imagine.""
Are you a fan of the Bat King upstairs?
In other words, it feels good for Bat King Wei to join the Justice League!
”"I'll go, are you here to be funny?""......"
was a hot discussion on the Internet, and after the news of Warner Pictures' investment spread, major stars took action one after another.Without him, if you can play Batman, or get a role in it, it will greatly improve your career.When the national teacher's "The Great Wall" was being prepared, the competition scene was extremely fierce, you must know that the male number one is a Hollywood superstar Ma Dumeng.In the end, many superstars in the circle, traffic stars, etc. played pigeon soy sauce in it, and Da Tiantian successfully won the female number one by virtue of her background advantage."
I said Xiao He!
Do you think I have a chance of starring in Batman?
Don't you think my temperament is very similar to Master Wei?
”Huang Xiaoming took the lead in acting, and with his good relationship with Li He, he contacted Li He in advance and asked him about the possibility of starring in Batman."
Brother Xiao Ming, it's not me who strikes you, Master Wei is a relatively deep character, you are too outgoing, not very suitable.""
Really?"
Huang Xiaoming asked without giving up."
So be it!
I'll give you an audition, and don't blame me when the time comes. ”Li He said.will definitely not choose Huang Xiaoming, what if he plays a domineering president?
Although Master Wei is indeed the president.The audition opportunity is also good, so you can rub the heat of Batman, what if the audition performance is good?
Huang Xiaoming said that he was very excited."
Forget it!
But I do have a suitable person to recommend. ”Huang Xiaoming thought about it and gave up, although his status as the second Mesozoic actor in the mainland may not be guaranteed, by the way, with the big sale of "Source Code", Wu Jing successfully became the first male star in the mainland."
Who is it?"
Li He asked."
Chen Kun, my good friend, he was born with a bitter and hateful appearance, and he is definitely suitable for Batman."
Huang Xiaoming said.Li He groaned and said, "I'll send him an audition invitation." ”"That's great, I'm sure he'll be able to make you happy.By the way, what kind of role do you think I can play?
”Huang Xiaoming still wants to appear in Batman, even if it is a supporting role."
Well...... there aren't many roles suitable for you in the first part, but there is one in the second part, so you can wait for the time being!""

Alright then!"
Not only Huang Xiaoming, but other celebrities have also launched their connections and want to participate in the Batman project.Yang Xuewu was seduced by a little fresh meat and wanted a chance to audition, but after Tang Qianqian found out, she laughed for a long time.But no one tempted Tang Qianqian, everyone knows that Tang Qianqian is the fiancée of director Li He, wouldn't there be no chance to tempt her?
On October 8, the post-production work of "The Martian" ended, and at the same time, "Batman: Time to War" announced the establishment of a project, with a total investment of 125 million US dollars, and the film officially began auditions.I'm Director Lee
