My Attic Connects To Other Worlds - v2 Chapter 133
(The last chapter was blocked for 1 hour, brothers who haven’t read it, remember to read it)
In fact, Wang Huan always had a group of enemies in China.
Even this wave of enemies is still very strong, with a very large number of people, and they have a lot of power to speak.
Before they and Wang Huan, they were absolutely incompatible with each other.
There are not only disputes over interests, but also positions and even consciousness.
This topic can’t be talked too much.
In short, Wang Huan has a large group of enemies in the country.
The more successful Wang Huan is, the more it hurts their interests and the more uncomfortable they are.
But most of the time, they can only hibernate their own voices.
But now, they can release as much as they want.
Because Wang Huan did the most stupid thing, he completely tied himself and the country together.
And played the most absurd game, which can never win.
Because this has nothing to do with personal ability.
You Wang Huan is awesome, and you are at best personally awesome. Can you change the status quo of China’s film industry?
impossible!
So, you are sure to lose this bet.
Some industries are so important that they are called too big to fail.
And Wang Huan is too big to lose now!
Wang Huan, who has been victorious, and Wang Huan, who has been miraculous, has reached the point where he can’t afford to lose.
You can’t lose once.
What’s more, this challenge is so important and tied to the country’s interests.
Once lost.
Not to mention the ruin, it’s not enough.
But… the real consequences are even more serious than this.
Once you lose, just as Wang Huan said, go straight to hermit, and completely disappear from the sight of countless people.
But… this challenge is too far apart.
There is no hope of winning at all.
There is no hope at all.
At present, the highest box office record of domestic movies is only 260 million.
To defeat “Star Wars Prequel 3”, at least one billion US dollars, which is eight billion yuan.
This…this is impossible to achieve with exhaustion of all imagination.
Domestic movie theaters have limits, and domestic audiences also have limits.
It can be said that the current ceiling of the Chinese market is almost four years later, “Avatar”, a total of 1.4 billion yuan.
Therefore, if you want a box office of more than $1 billion, the key is to rely on the global box office.
but……
It is more difficult to win the global box office than domestically.
At present, only Hollywood can take the whole world, and all distribution channels are in the hands of others.
You can say that.
At present, the most successful non-English film at the box office in the world is “Spirited Away” by Hayao Miyazaki, Japan, with a total of about 250 million US dollars.
“Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” and “Hero” are also in the forefront, with the exception of the US box office, both are only more than 100 million U.S. dollars.
so……
How difficult is it to earn box office globally?
Hollywood movies with a global box office of more than $1 billion each year are about one or not even one.
Only the top Hollywood A-level masterpieces can win $1 billion in box office worldwide.
In 2005, the global box office of Chinese films exceeded 100 million U.S. dollars. It is more than a celebration of the whole world, it is simply the light of the nation.
I couldn’t find one in a few years.
Therefore, in everyone’s eyes, Wang Huan’s challenge seemed so absurd.
It seems so stupid.
Things that I can’t even dream of.
Do you dare to speak out, and dare to make such a bet?
No wonder that some people in China can’t wait to scold them.
It was even directly accused of traitorousness.
Wang Huan’s supporters and fans are of course numerous, countless.
However, they were also frightened.
I feel that this is simply impossible, and I feel that this is a losing bet.
Even, it is totally unimaginable, why does Wang Huan propose such a challenge?
It’s totally unnecessary.
And even when they want to refute, they have no confidence in their hearts.
………………
After returning to the consulate.
Everyone looked at him, a little weird. And Wang Huan hadn’t discussed with them beforehand.
So, he just stepped forward and patted the shoulder, not knowing what to say.
Soon, Wang Huan received a call from Wu Sansi.
“Boss, how much does it cost to film the “Three-Body” trilogy? My family paid it, and it doesn’t matter if I pay it.”
According to Wu Sansi’s conjecture, shooting these three films is definitely an astronomical investment, which may exceed RMB 3.4 billion.
This money, his family can afford, the key is that Wang Huan helped his family win more than this money.
“No, I will pay the money alone.” Wang Huan said.
Wu Sansi stunned: “Boss, do you have so much money?”
Wang Huan said, “I don’t have it now, but I will have it soon.”
Next, Li Changsheng, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, came to Wang Huan.
“Mr. Wang Huan, although I think this challenge will undoubtedly be defeated, it is completely pounding the rock, but we are willing to invest.” Li Changsheng said: “In the United States, I know too well that the power of movies is too great, and its influence far exceeds Books. So even if we lose money, we are willing to invest in your movie.”
Then, Li Changsheng said: “According to the United States, the trilogy needs at least 500 million US dollars, but in China, it shouldn’t cost that much. So the hundreds of people in our chamber of commerce raised a sum of money and are willing to pay. One hundred million dollars to make this movie.”
Wang Huan said, “Thank you very much, Mr. Li Changsheng, but I really don’t need it. I have to pay this money by myself.”
Li Changsheng was taken aback: “You, do you have so much money? How much do you want to invest in this movie?”
Wang Huan said, “The top is not capped!”
Suddenly, Li Changsheng was also frightened by this tone.
……………………
Next, Wang Huan ushered in a very familiar visitor.
Charlie who helped him publish the first book of “Three-Body”.
Of course, not long ago, when Zhang Enci framed Wang Huan and forcibly wiped her out, this Charlie directly drew a line with Wang Huan, and publicly announced in the media that he disgusted Wang Huan and would no longer have any cooperation with Wang Huan.
There will never be any more cooperation.
But now he is here again.
“Mr. Wang Huan, it’s great to see you without facts. The moment you were shot, I suddenly felt that my heart was shot, and my whole body seemed to be empty.” Charlie said emotionally, “I know you’ve read it. During the dangerous period, you don’t know how happy I am. In order to pray for you, I didn’t even touch a woman for a whole week. You are my best best friend.”
Uh! Knowing that his face would be thick, I didn’t expect it to be so thick.
Then he took out a newspaper.
“My goodness, Mr. Wang Huan, your book is still ranked first in the New York Times rankings. It’s terrible.”
“You have been dominating the list for almost three months, and the ghost knows how many books have been sold now.”
Ugh!
It’s ridiculous.
When Zhang Enci slandered Wang Huanqiang’s annihilation case, his book sales fell from the top of the New York Times rankings.
Moreover, countless bookstores removed his books, and countless people burned and tore his books.
Later, that video proved that Wang Huan was innocent and pure.
Immediately afterwards, he was assassinated again.
In a moment, countless bookstores moved his books back to the most prominent position.
Countless people have to go back to buy it because they burned this book.
Inexplicably, the sales of “Three-Body” has increased a lot.
Up to the present position, he has always dominated the first place.
Not only the United States, but the whole world is the same.
Especially two days ago, when Wang Huan and the President of the United States were engaged in this earth-shattering gambling game.
“Three Body” is on fire again.
Once again caused a sales frenzy.
Publishers all over the world have made money and are constantly reprinting and reprinting.
I don’t know which edition it is.
The total sales volume is already an astronomical figure.
Of course, these royalties have not been credited so quickly.
No, Random House begged to come again immediately.
Wang Huan said: “Charlie, I remember you said that it was disgusting to cooperate with me, and will never cooperate with me again.”
“Flap, pop, pop, pop…” Charlie slapped himself in the face without saying a word, and slapped him a dozen times too hard.
“Dear Wang Huan, everything I say is fart, and what we Americans say is fart.” Charlie said.
Wang Huan said, “But I…not!”
Without saying anything, Charlie knelt down and said: “Mr. Wang Huan, I have committed a huge mistake. My boss has already told me. If I can’t ask for your forgiveness, then I can get out of my current position. .”
“Mr. Wang Huan, as long as you can forgive me, you can let me do anything, I can do anything, even if you offer it to my wife, if you are interested.”
Because of this business, the amount involved is not millions of dollars, nor tens of millions of dollars, but hundreds of millions of dollars.
For such a great benefit, what else can’t be paid? What can’t be sacrificed?
Wang Huan looked at Charlie who was kneeling on the ground, ignored him, and walked back to his room.
Next, the two bodyguards threw Charlie directly.
………………………………
The next day!
Random House published a news in the newspaper that Charlie, the manager of the New York branch, was dismissed from the headquarters for suspected commercial corruption.
But this was not over yet, and Random House filed another complaint and took Charlie to court.
He was charged with illegally embezzling more than US$5 million in company assets. If convicted, he would be sentenced to several years.
It’s so cruel!
Next, the CEO of Random House came to visit Wang Huan and gave an extremely rich gift.
There are two more checks.
Both are astronomical figures.
The first check is to settle the royalties for the first part of “Three-Body”.
The second check is an advance payment of royalties for the second and third parts of “Three Body”.
Wang Huan has never seen so much money.
“I know that with your pride, you will never borrow or raise funds, so we paid the royalties in advance, hoping not to affect your major events.” The CEO said: “That’s right, the money is enough. Is it? If it is not enough, we can add more.”
Wang Huan said, “You have given me royalties for the second and third parts now. Are you not afraid of the following two parts, which are very badly written?”
The CEO of Random House said: “You really like to make jokes. Sometimes I doubt my character, and I don’t doubt how wonderful your books are. Maybe you think it’s ridiculous. I still often In the dream, the content of the last two parts of your “Three-Body” appears.”
Wang Huan said, “Then, happy cooperation.”
The CEO of Random House said: “The cooperation is happy, and I know that you may dislike the words Random House a little bit. We established a company specifically for you, so we signed the contract with this new company. But the distribution channel It’s still exactly the same. I hope my thoughts will make you a little more comfortable.”
Ugh!
I have to say that sometimes capitalists are so abominable that they gnaw their teeth and wait for them to be broken into pieces.
But sometimes, even more considerate than your family.
Wang Huan took the contract and discovered that the name of the new company above was called Adventist.
Full of three-body style.
I have to say that this mind is really used to the extreme.
……………………
The manuscripts for the second and third parts of “Three Body” are readily available.
Both Chinese and English are available.
Ten days later, the last two parts of “Three-Body” were released simultaneously all over the world.
Suddenly…
The sales frenzy caused is completely beyond words.
The reputation of the first film is already very, very huge.
Coupled with the recent gambling between Wang Huan and the president, and the movie he wants to shoot is “Three-Body”.
So the popularity of this book around the world is so high.
More than the owner’s book published in the past few years.
In the first part of “Three-Body”, he had two opponents.
The second and third releases have no rivals in the world.
Almost all of those famous artists avoided the issue of this schedule.
Sales swept the world.
Swept countless lists.
On the New York Times sales list, the first place is “Three-Body 2”, the second is “Three-Body 3”, and the third is “Three-Body 1.”
The top three were all dominated.
What’s more terrifying is that this situation will last for a long, long, long time.
Because until 2007, this book will have an amazing popularity.
Wang Huan and the President of the United States have a huge gambling game.
Of course, putting aside this gambling game.
Countless readers were once again shocked by the imagination of “Three-Body 2” and “Three-Body 3”.
Simply watching the plot, the first one is the best written, very delicate.
The second part, the plot and humanity, are superb, and the imagination is even greater, and the scene is transformed into the universe.
By the third part, the imagination is endless.
It has been written about the survival of the entire universe.
The entire earth, even the entire solar system, has become insignificant dust.
As for the early civilization of Sansola, the civilization that had soared into the sky, it had already perished for countless years.
A drop of water destroyed all of the earth’s fleet.
Advanced alien civilization uses dimensionality reduction strikes to turn the solar system into a piece of gold foil and a two-dimensional plane.
Countless people were completely shocked by this imagination.
It’s really mesmerizing and stunning.
but……
but……
but……
How do you shoot this?
Even the American film industry cannot produce such a magnificent picture of the universe.
“Star Wars Prequel” is already the pinnacle of the galaxy war.
But… it’s about the interstellar war, about the confrontation of space battleships, that’s what it is.
The epic space war in your “Three-Body” can’t be filmed at all.
Even many scenes can be expressed in words in the novel.
But… it can’t be shown in the movie at all.
For example, there is no description about the appearance of the three-body man in the novel.
How do you shoot?
And the space of the universe, that space?
How do you shoot?
How should these space battleships be designed?
To be in line with science, but also professional, but also full of imagination.
When countless readers saw these words, they were just huge and too awesome and too mysterious.
There was only a very hazy impression in their minds, and they couldn’t really imagine what it looked like.
However, they have already become a very, very mysterious, very, very cocky look.
Although they don’t know exactly what this scene is like.
However, as long as you do not look good in the shots and are not as powerful as they imagined, then you are a failure.
We will spray you.
Immediately afterwards, a senior executive of the current Hollywood boss Paramount said in an interview: “Even if the American film industry wants to better shoot “Three Body”, it will take about ten years before it can reach the relevant level. , Not even big enough.”
The reporter asked: “If Paramount is allowed to shoot this work, how much money is needed?”
Paramount executives said: “The trilogy, the cost of just shooting, probably needs more than 1 billion US dollars. The most important thing is that this work is very, very difficult to shoot, and it is difficult to form a script. His scene is very grand and full of extraordinary things. Imagination is an epic work. But it is not conducive to change into a script. It is difficult for you to measure the balance between depth and excitement.”
“The first part, the story is very detailed, but with several perspectives, it is difficult to coherent and cohesive the film, especially the virtual game, how should it be filmed? If you spend a lot of effort to shoot, it is just a game. If not Shoot, it’s very important.”
“There is also the second part, the encounter of the wall-facer, and the changes in humanity before the Trisolaran fleet arrives on earth, and the catastrophe of the world. Should it be filmed in detail, or should it be filmed in a documentary way from a third perspective?”
“There is also the story of the Trisolaran deportation of all human beings to Australia. Should we use the first perspective, a big book and a special book, or should we use a documentary method?”
“Finally, how should we film the plot about the destruction of the universe?”
“Because the time span of this work is very large, there is no problem if it is put in the book. But the film is continuous and requires a certain amount of emotion. Such a huge span of several times is very easy to cause emotional disruption.”
“So “Three-Body” is a great work, but even if it is handed over to Hollywood, it will be difficult for him, and we dare not do it.”
Next, not only Paramount, but other Hollywood giants also expressed their opinions.
We dare not do it.
Even the executives of Lucasfilm, who shot Star Wars, said straightforwardly: “The Three-Body book is very good, but it is not suitable for adaptation into a movie. The first one is already a hell-level adaptation difficulty, while the second and the The three parts are more difficult to change and cannot be completed at all.”
This should be the top company for making science fiction and interstellar movies.
Even they said that the “Three-Body” movie could not be successful and could not be adapted.
Fox Pictures said: “First of all, even with the current film industry in the United States, it is impossible to shoot “Three-Body” perfectly. Maybe it will be possible in more than ten years. But this is destined to be a dead end. The project. Because in the middle and late stages, it lacks a protagonist, and it lacks a complete story. And if a movie does not have a protagonist, the emotions of the audience cannot be substituted. So as a book, it is a super classic. But As a film adaptation, it is catastrophic.”
“And there is a very serious point. If this work is not adapted, it cannot be shot. If it is adapted, it may lose its original connotation, which will greatly reduce the color.”
“So, it is a classic, but it cannot be adapted into a movie.”
Basically, all the giants in Hollywood have spoken.
The attitude is consistent.
With the current film industry, even with the strength of the United States, it can’t well show the pictures needed for the “Three-Body” universe war.
In the extremely weak Chinese film industry, it is even more impossible.
The extremely trash special effects of fifty cents will only completely ruin the movie.
Wang Huan’s decision to complete the shooting of these three films in China was completely stupid, and the final result could only be unsightly.
Secondly, this work is almost impossible to adapt.
In short, Wang Huan definitely had a brain drain before launching a challenge to the United States on this project.
This is no longer a doomed thing.
It’s the question of how bad he will shoot. It is a complete disaster for the Chinese film industry to complete works of this level.
In this voice of doubt, Wang Huan took a flight, left New York, and returned to China.
After landing.
Wang Huan did not hold a press conference, nor did he accept any interviews, so he put it back in Hangzhou and returned to his home.
After going home.
He once again entered the tower of the end times.
Been out for almost half a year.
Finally home!
Wang Huan sighed: “Wen star, I’m back, now is the time to start performing a real miracle to the world, a real miracle of light and shadow, let them know what is the real peak of the movie, let them know what is real Magic screen.”
