"Calm down, Frank. `Calm down." Lance picked up the whiskey on the bar, took a sip, leaving a blank space. Frank looked at him with a thick neck and a thick neck, his face full of disbelief, but his mood finally calmed down slightly.

Lance then continued, "Let's get out of the story of "City of Sin." Lance knew that almost everyone had fantasies about the role of Nancy, which was also a necessary element in commercial films. If he deliberately blackened Nancy, not only Frank would not agree, but the movie audience would probably not buy it. This is difficult, it requires skills, and Lance also needs Frank's help. So, Lance planned to change the topic first, "This way, I'll ask you a question. If you see a beggar begging on the roadside, what would you feel? Psychology? Or rejection?"

"Exclusion! He has his hands and feet, and he should use his own hands to win his life." Frank said back without any hesitation. Although Frank is 47 years old this year, he looks like the younger one in the contest with Lance.

Lance pursed his lips and nodded, "It's fair. But what if he is a disabled person? For example, he lost his hands and feet."

"Oh, God, then maybe I will sympathize with him and hope he can receive government relief." Frank's expression softened slightly.

"At the same time, there is a woman who is not intelligent around him, who looks like his wife. She has almost no ability to take care of herself, and her intelligence is only at the level of three years old." Lance further expanded the story.

Frank was stunned and frowned, "This... this is a tragedy. What did you give birth to?"

"As you said, this is a tragedy, so you feel sympathy. `There is mercy." Lance's words were affirmative, not a question, but Frank nodded subconsciously in agreement, "and then you learned that the man was disabled due to a car accident, and was drunk."

Frank had opened his mouth wide and could not speak, but that expression had already shown his sympathy and guilt - the guilt brought by previous anger and disgust.

Lance paused here. He smiled and continued to say for about half a second later, "But after in-depth investigation, it was revealed that his wife was abducted from the sanatorium. He not only raped the other party, but also detained the other party for many years and embezzled social relief funds in her name. But in fact, the woman's family was already in despair. They were tirelessly looking for their children, but they had no idea. Their children were kidnapped, raped, imprisoned, and begged on the side of the road as beggars."

"..." Frank just opened his mouth wide and didn't know what to say. Finally, he only said "beast" in his mouth, and then he was stunned.

Lance picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the wine again, and his brain became more and more active, "Look. From the standpoint of this man, he did not think he had done something wrong, because he had received punishment from the whole world and he had fallen to the bottom of society. So, he kidnapped a woman and stripped off all her power. In his opinion, this woman's IQ was only three years old and she had no ability to take care of herself. Instead, he was saving the whole woman."

"Dog/shit!" Frank interrupted Lance almost angrily. After saying that, he couldn't help it, "Damn trash! You are full of squirting/shit!" Faced with Frank's vulgar curse, Lance did not fight back, but just smiled and let Frank vent all his emotions. After a while, Frank blushed and looked at Lance panting, but found that Lance was calm and calm, and did not even sweat. This made Frank choke, and then suddenly lowered his head and laughed, "So, this is your purpose, right?"

Lance raised his eyebrows, but smiled without saying a word, which basically meant that he had agreed. This made Frank feel a little amused and crying. He rubbed his nose in annoyance. After hesitating for a while, he still couldn't help but turn his head and look at Lance, "So, what do you mean by giving this example?"

"It means, Rashomon." Lance did not go around in circles anymore. "Everyone interprets the sins that are selfish and even illegal from their own perspectives, but they just say that this is what society forces themselves, and this is what survival forces themselves. It is as if the sins committed because of survival are just like justice."

Frank finally tasted it, "So, you mean you want to introduce this deep meaning into the story of "City of Sin."

In "City of Sin", in fact, every character is evil, but Frank still leaves several positive characters, such as Muffer, this ugly face and hot temper is like a monster in the clock tower. He finally got the favor of Gotty and found a touch of warmth, but was slapped into a killer. Even though he was a hooligan, his image of justice was very obvious; for example, Nancy, a girl who suffered a lot of torture when she was a child, fell into a bar when she grew up, and searched for a way out in the City of Sin; for example, Hadigan, he almost saved Nancy in the posture of a moth to the flames, and dedicated his life to her...

However, Lance now wants to inject a real dark side into these characters, not only to complete the theme of "evil against evil" and make evil truly evil, but not justice covered with evil skin; at the same time, to inject Rashomon's darkness and build the city of sin intact.

"Yes, I have some ideas now, such as Nancy. Has no one ever thought about why she was kidnapped when she was eleven? I didn't say that she had done something wrong and deserved to be kidnapped, but her family, such as what did her parents have, whether the marriage was broken, or even those greedy government officials, or cold-blooded drug dealers. Nancy couldn't stand it at home, so she ran away from home, and was targeted by Roger and was kidnapped. For example, what happened to Nancy in eight years later? Could it be that she was in danger during the process of selling drugs and drugs, so she fell into a bar..."

Although he was also talking about the role of Nancy, Frank was not so excited this time, so he was always ready to interrupt Lance, but he still didn't speak. Instead, he gradually became quiet, as if he really began to think about the content of Lance's words.

"For example, why did Hadigan have a special liking for Nancy and always save her desperately? Let's abandon those reasons for justice. Can it be because he was too busy with the police and ignored his daughter, causing his daughter to be kidnapped and tore up? Or go further, he took his daughter to work, but ended up in gang fights, resulting in his daughter being killed. So when he saw Nancy, who was eleven years old, he was desperate and flew into the flames."

Lance's words made Frank completely fall into deep thought, and his right hand supported his chin, and countless thoughts were surging in his mind.

"Otherwise, from another perspective, Hadigan is a dirty policeman. He embezzled and accepted bribes and was bribed by a drug dealer in an operation. So he turned a blind eye and killed his daughter without thinking. Or, Hadigan is a dirty policeman. He was seen by Nancy when he committed the crime, so when Nancy was kidnapped, he had to choose to save her and then shut her up." Before the latter thought was finished, Lance shook his head, "This doesn't make sense."

This straightforward expression made Frank look up and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "You don't have to continue giving examples, I understand what you mean."

Lance shrugged, "I know, this is a very difficult thing, and it requires a huge character setting to sort out every character. But it's all worth it, believe me."

Simply put, these characters are alive, and the stories they have lived in are intertwined, thus forming the City of Sin. This huge project will not only make the characters lively and make the City of Sin real, but more importantly, it will make the whole story have a fable color, and even if you savor it carefully, it will have endless aftertaste.

"So, you're going to put all these settings into the movie?" Frank said with some concern.

Lance waved his hands repeatedly, "Of course not. This will affect the rhythm of the film, or even the style of the film, which is simply suicide." These background stories are just used to shape characters and build lines. They will not appear directly in the entire script, but whether the background story exists or not can be felt from every corner of the script, which is also what Lance deeply felt during the writing of the "City of God" and "killing people with a knife".

Script skills are a very subtle word, but many times, the real script skills are reflected in the lines. For example, when a character says something, it may be just a sentence, or an action or a piece of clothing, but there is a rigorous and detailed structure hidden behind it, rather than a casual one. Then this detail can be integrated into the story, highlighting the story or even deepening it. This is script skills.

This is true for the scripts of famous directors such as the Dardenne and Mike Lee (Miss Ke-leigh). Lance hopes to follow the steps of these big shots, and of course, he still has a long way to go.

"I mean, I need to write a huge information library for the script, so, I need your help, after all, this is the world you created." Frank is to "City of Sin", just like Paul Lins to "City of God", they are the original authors, and then use years of data collection to inject soul into each character.

Lance doesn't need Frank to serve as director, but he needs Frank to build a complete life, even the soul, for every character in "Sin City".

"So, Frank, would you like to create this classic with me?"
