Meanwhile, some smart film companies had seized a chance to cooperate with Qin Guan again.
Just as Qin Guan finished his work in the US and was about to head back to China, he ran into the representative of Warner Bros.
"I have a really tight schedule in 2008."
"I know, but just take a look at the role. If you accept it, we'll do our best to promote the film for the Oscars."
Qin Guan took the script dubiously. The guy had good reason to be so determined. This was the favorite film type of the Oscar committee: a superhero movie.
Everyone was familiar with the hero. It was Batman himself. Of course, as a traditional Marvel character, Batman couldn't suddenly be turned into an Asian. The supporting characters could, though.
Yes, Qin Guan would play Batman's arch enemy, the Joker. The distinctive, impressive character would be a real challenge for Qin Guan.
