Schiller and Peter finished dinner together in the small clinic in Hell's Kitchen. It was not until it was completely dark that the two of them took the shuttle together.
Peter was still a little frowning, obviously thinking about how to solve George's problem. Schiller gave him some psychological counseling, but the effect was not great.
Spider-Man's moral bottom line is unshakable. He would rather struggle with himself than find problems in others.
Peter got off the bus at the Queens stop. Schiller stood on the shuttle and waved goodbye to him, watching Peter's back blend into the lights of thousands of houses.
Good people are destined to face more troubles at every stage of growth, but Spider-Man can always solve the troubles by himself. After all, he is one of the few superheroes in New York who has both a moral bottom line and a sound mind.
With this in mind, Schiller returned to Arkham Sanatorium, only to find another guest waiting for him here, Eddie Brock, who also brought a lot of manuscripts and information.
The two sat down again in the high-ceiling reception area on the second floor. Eddie said straight to the point: "ABC wanted to make a documentary about the solar system development plan. They contacted Tony Stark, and Tony found me."
Eddie pushed the manuscript at hand forward and said: "This is the draft plan, you can take a look at it first."
Schiller picked up the manuscript and saw the name of the project written on the first page - "The Man Who Chased the Sun".
While rummaging through his briefcase, Eddie said: "They want to be based on important figures in the solar system development plan, starting from their daily work, to show the general public the true side of the backbone of mankind and trace their growth.
journey, telling everyone how they walked through this journey and finally embraced the sun."
Eddie handed over another list, pointed to it and said to Schiller: "This is the list of personnel of the project team. The staff structure and technology of the project team are very mature. Director Errol Morris has won many awards for various documentaries."
The style of awards, interviews, historical facts and reductive interpretations is also very suitable for this kind of subject matter.”
"Who specifically?" Schiele asked.
Eddie sighed softly and said: "You also know that they can't make this into a real epic, because no one will watch it. To make it slightly entertaining, it is natural to film controversial figures."
"Tony Stark?"
"He is the bullseye." Eddie nodded and continued: "Captain America is also on this list, as well as Peter Parker, a rising star in the scientific research community. His origin and growth experience are in line with the tone of the American dream. The president wants him."
"Who else?"
"Matt." Eddie pushed up his black-rimmed glasses, took a sip of coffee and said, "Disabled people are still lawyers and Peter Parker, and there has to be a black man."
"Don't tell me it's Nick."
"Of course it's impossible. Eric, the vampire hunter, is both black and had a bizarre upbringing. Mysterious creatures like vampires have their own topics to talk about, and he has a good personality and humorous conversation, which can alleviate some of the overly serious atmosphere."
"What about women?" Schiller asked.
"First of all, we exclude Natasha, who has the greatest credit, because she is from the former Soviet Union and an agent is not suitable for being on TV."
Eddie put his hands on the table, clasped his fingers and said: "There are several candidates now, Dr. Dora who previously served the Life Foundation, Jessica who is now famous among superheroes, Xavier Academy for Gifted Youngsters
Teacher Jean Grey, etc.”
"The characters in the documentary need to have a certain story-telling, which can be not only a bizarre life experience or a tortuous growth experience, but also an ideological concept or a current situation that is still difficult."
"These candidates are all good." Schiller commented, but Eddie knew that he had more to say, so he just listened quietly.
"The candidates for the male heroes proposed before are also pretty good, but I think the essence of a documentary is to reveal to the public some stories or characters that they are not familiar with, rather than following trends and highlighting those that are already on the headlines of newspapers.
Filming a story that has been repeated thousands of times again."
Eddie sighed deeply and said: "Which director didn't have such a dream when he graduated from the academy? Just like which news media person didn't want to reveal the truth to the public when he was just starting out?"
"The film must be topical, because only topics and traffic can bring economic benefits and satisfy investors. Only breaking news can bring stock growth. Even if I didn't choose economic benefits ten thousand times, I still can't.
It’s understandable that people who choose it want to fill their stomachs with it.”
"Then we can slightly change the investment form of this documentary." Schiller waved his finger gently, looked down at the manuscript on the table and said: "The idea of this project is quite good, we have too much to tell the public
Announcement, but it needs to be done step by step and subtly."
"Instead of making a biography of a person, it is better to make a group biography, classifying heroes into different groups and showing their stories from multiple perspectives, such as the Avengers led by Captain America and Iron Man, Matt and his students
, there’s a lot of Spider-Man’s Legion of Spiders, the Brotherhood of Mutants and Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters, even the Sanctuary with Kama Taj, or Asgard.”
Eddie's eyes widened slightly and he said, "But do you know how much investment this requires?"
"So this cannot be left to the TV station to film, but we have to do it ourselves." Schiller stood up and walked behind Eddie, came to the high railing, and stretched out a hand to press Eddie's hand.
Said on the shoulder: "Don't you have a dream to be a director?"
Schiller clearly felt the muscles on Eddie's shoulders stiffen. He turned around and continued: "Stark Group, SHIELD, and even the entire solar system development plan will help you. You will not have any
Regardless of financial problems, even the protagonists of these stories will cooperate with you as much as possible to restore the interpretation."
"We have so many stories to film, so thrilling and ups and downs. The people who have experienced these stories are the best interviewees. They can tell their legendary lives through your lens."
"How did Iron Man turn from a playboy to the person in charge of the solar system development project? How did Captain America find his place after two great changes in the times? What is the genius researcher Peter Parker worrying about recently? The man who only existed in the past
How does Asgard in the mythical kingdom become troubled by family matters?"
Schiller felt Eddie's heartbeat and breathing speed increasing. He withdrew his hand, sat opposite Eddie again, looked at him and said: "I can ensure that during your filming, any office laboratory or
The doors of the event venue are open for you.”
"You will have the best shooting equipment, the most perfect shooting location, and the best photographers Spider-Man, so you can give full play to your talents."
"Of course, I think that no outstanding documentary director would refuse to participate in such a documentary. The production team is destined to leave a mark in history."
Eddie left in a hurry before even finishing half of the water on the cup. It was obvious that he was very excited now, because during the conversation, Venom didn't even come out to cause trouble. It must have been the dopamine secreted in Eddie's brain that had already caused him to suffer.
He is full.
When it was time to go to bed at night, Schiller came to the Dream School through the base of the Alliance of Radiance Dream World. Now the place has been further expanded, with more students and teachers. As he walked towards his office, he kept thinking
Some students greeted him.
Schiller nodded to them. He came to the bookshelf in his office and began to rummage. After a while, he said with some confusion: "I remember putting a few notebooks written by Master Kama Taj here before. Could it be?"
Which student borrowed it last time?"
Schiller shook his head, sighed, left the office and started walking upstairs. He came to Strange's office, but he didn't see him in the office. Only two students were helping him organize the bookshelf.
.
"Where is Dean Strange?" Schiller asked the two students.
One of the students was a little surprised. He said, "Didn't the dean tell you? He took a leave of absence and may not have come in the past month."
Schiller was a little surprised, because he really hadn't heard about this, so he had to leave the dream world, sleep until dawn, and then go to the Holy of Holies to find Strange.
He thought that some important work in the Holy of Holies might have prevented Strange from teaching in the dream world, but he did not expect that the front desk of the Holy of Holies told him that Strange was not here either.
Schiller then went to Asgard to search again, but did not find Strange. Instead, he found Loki. The two sat down in the reception area of Asgard. Loki asked the waiter to pour Schiller a glass of wine.
It looked like we were going to have a long conversation.
"Stephen is not doing well recently." As soon as Loki spoke, Schiller frowned. He took a sip of wine and said, "The problem lies in his family. He and his brother have some conflicts."
"Stephen is now successful and famous. Of course he hopes that his brother can enjoy a better life in New York, but his brother doesn't adapt and always wants to go back to his hometown farm. The two broke up on bad terms."
"But some time ago, his younger brother had a car accident. When he was sent to the hospital for treatment, he was found to have a liver problem. It was suspected to be hereditary. This kind of disease cannot be cured in their small hometown. Of course, Stephen wants him to stay and enjoy New York.
Medical conditions.”
Schiller sighed. He could imagine the next scene without Loki continuing. Strange has always been obsessed with this matter because he felt that when his father was ill, he was wasted in a small place.
You need treatment, otherwise it won't worsen to that point.
But Strange's father and his brother Victor both made a living by farming and did not receive any higher education. Farmers all over the world have something in common. In their view, the grain harvest is huge and they have to watch it.
Only when you have your own farm can you feel at ease. If you can tolerate the pain, you can tolerate it. If not, just prescribe painkillers.
Strange is a top surgeon and a genius. It has been smooth sailing since his debut, but he has not encountered as many strange patients as general practitioners or internists. In his opinion, it is human nature to seek treatment when sick.
But I didn't expect that the blind doctor would be in my own home. You can imagine how angry he would be.
"You have to persuade him." Loki looked at Schiller and said: "You also know that Stephen's character is a bit extreme. He is a person who will never give up until he reaches his goal. And unlike us, he sometimes does not weigh the gains and losses, but only
Seek to have clear thoughts and become crazier than anyone else."
"I thought he was busy recently, so he didn't show up. Who knew he was taking care of his family? This is my dereliction of duty." Schiller stood up and said: "I will go see him, you know
Where is he?"
"Presbyterian Hospital Special Care Ward 103, give him my regards."
