Director who specializes in American comics

Wang Xuanyuan and Scarlett met at the door of the bar. After a brief chat, Scarlett already knew what was going on. The two of them did not dare to delay and hurried into the bar.

This palace bar can be regarded as a mid-range consumption place. Wang Xuanyuan and Old Man Stan have been here several times, so they are familiar with the roads after entering. They followed the road directly to the interior of the bar. From a distance, they saw a man with completely white hair. The old man was sitting in a corner of the venue in a daze.

The old man with all white hair is Stan Lee. Although he is so old, his body is still very strong. He does not look like an octogenarian at all. He looks very different in this noisy environment.

Stan is a regular customer in this bar, so the bartenders and service staff here take good care of him. This is one of the reasons why he comes here often without changing places.

Wang Xuanyuan and Scarlett glanced at each other and came to Stan's side. The old man took another sip of wine and found that the whiskey in the glass was gone, so he raised his hand to ask the bartender for another glass.

Wang Xuanyuan quickly pressed down his arm and said to the bartender at the bar: "No, thank you, no more drinks."

The bartender was a middle-aged Mexican man with black and translucent hair. He also knew Wang Xuanyuan, so he nodded gently to Wang Xuanyuan.

Wang Xuanyuan put Stan's arm on the table and glanced at the old man. He was convinced that the old man must have encountered something sad or depressing again. He saw a sad look on the old man's face and some dark circles under his eyes. , the glasses he usually wears have been put in his pocket, he smells of alcohol, and he looks tipsy.

Wang Xuanyuan said: "My brother, why are you here drinking alcohol again? Stop drinking. Let's go home."

After Stan Lee heard this voice, his whole body trembled slightly, and his eyes immediately opened wide. When he saw Wang Xuanyuan and Scarlett beside him, there was some excitement on his face: "Little granddaughter, I finally see you again, I miss you so much."

After saying that, he stood up tremblingly, stretched out his arms to hug Scarlett, and held her in his arms.

Scarlett said softly and sweetly: "Old man, sit down first, let's sit and chat, you can't move now, do you hear me." After saying that, the two of them supported Old Stan on the seat.

Old man Stan sighed and said, "Ai, I was so busy at home that I came here to drink some wine. After I drank, I realized that I didn't have my wallet. I don't know if I didn't bring it or if I lost it. I'm troubling you again, little brother." He looked at what he was saying. He looked at Wang Xuanyuan, then looked at Scarlett and said, "And you, my little granddaughter, have caused you to come so far away so late."

Wang Xuanyuan said sincerely: "Stan, what you said is wrong. We happen to be nearby, and we haven't chatted with you for a long time. Let's get together by the way."

Scarlett stood up and went to the counter to pay.

Wang Xuanyuan suggested that he send Old Stan home first. Stan shook his hand and said, "Don't go back yet. Let's sit here for a while. We will be angry when we go back."

He said he was angry, and Wang Xuanyuan also knew a little bit about it. Stan had revealed to him before that Stan's daughter was an old man who didn't go to work and spent a lot of money. What was even more annoying was that she treated her father It was also very bad. Stan was often angry with his daughter.

Looking at today's situation, the father and daughter are at odds again, and Stan is still the victim.

Faced with such a situation, Wang Xuanyuan didn't know what to say. He just tried to comfort him: "Stan, is it still that matter? Family matters?"

Stan nodded and wanted to take another sip of wine, but found that he had finished the drink. He nodded, his expression suddenly became much more lonely, and he said in a low voice: "Ai, every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. I I don’t know what’s going on, it’s like this at home.”

At this time, Scarlett had come back from checking out at the counter. After hearing what the old man said, she sweetly answered: "Stan, if you are willing, am I not your granddaughter? As long as I stay with you in the future, you can Stop worrying so much.”

Wang Xuanyuan also nodded and said: "Yes, Stan, a cute and beautiful girl like Sijia will definitely be able to bring you happiness, and I will accompany you."

Stan glanced at Scarlett, raised his arm with difficulty and touched her head, sincerely liking this child.

Wang Xuanyuan and Scarlett comforted Old Man Stan for a while. His expression obviously improved a lot. Once he was in a good mood, the smile on his face returned a lot, and the cheerful comic creator in normal times returned a little bit.

After regaining his energy, Stan opened up his chat box and started chatting with Wang Xuanyuan.

"Xuanyuan, I heard that your new movie is about to be released. Are you confident about it?"

Wang Xuanyuan nodded and said: "Stan, you must have confidence. I know a lot about the films I have made."

Stan patted Wang Xuanyuan's shoulder and said, "It's good for young people to have confidence, not bad."

Afterwards, they chatted some more. Mr. Stan said that he would attend the premiere of Wang Xuanyuan's new film and cheer him on. Wang Xuanyuan was very grateful.

Later, they talked about the current comic market. Stan sighed and said: "Ai, you don't know that the current comic publishing market is very sluggish. Sales have been sluggish for several years. If this continues for another two years, I will It seems I can only be fired and laid off."

Stan said self-deprecatingly, and then talked about the current situation. He said that Marvel Comics where he worked was in a comprehensive downturn. Several supplements had been shut down, and he only relied on some strong main issues to survive.

Having already mentioned this, Wang Xuanyuan's mind moved. He thought about the entire movie universe that he would shoot in the future. According to the information he got from the system, it would be a period when comic-book movies would be very popular, but now there is no sign of any trouble. signs.

Stan Lee is now the chairman of Marvel Comics. If he can be persuaded to film his own comic characters and adapt them into movies, wouldn't it be a double win?

After making up his mind, Wang Xuanyuan tried to suggest something to him: "Stan, I have an idea that may be able to change the current situation of comics and create another world."

When Stan heard what he said, he became interested. He said, "You young people have good brains and many ideas. Xuanyuan, tell me what you think."

Wang Xuanyuan stretched his head closer to the old man and said sincerely: "How about adapting the comic into a movie and releasing it in theaters. This will not only create additional revenue, but also increase fans. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"
