Chapter 133

In fact, Wang Huan always had a group of enemies in China.

Even this wave of enemies is still very strong, the number is still very large, and they also have a great voice.

Before they and Wang Huan, they were absolutely at odds.

There are not only interests, but also positions, and even consciousness.

In short, Wang Huan has a large group of enemies in China.

The more Wang Huanyue succeeds, the more it hurts their interests, and the more uncomfortable they are.

But most of the time, they can only hibernate their own voice.

But now they can let go.

Because Wang Huan did the stupidest thing, he completely tied himself to the country.

And made the most absurd gamble that could never win.

Because it has nothing to do with personal ability.

You, Wang Huan, are at best your own. Can you change the current situation of China's film industry?

impossible!

So, you're 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 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 that it is tied to the interests of the country.

Once you lose.

Not to mention being discredited, it's not.

But... The real consequences are more serious than this.

Once you lose, just like Wang Huan said, go straight to seclusion and completely disappear from the vision of countless people.

But... This challenge is really very different.

There is no hope of winning.

There is no hope at all.

At present, the highest box office record of domestic films is only 260 million.

If you want to defeat Star Wars prequel 3, you need at least $1 billion, that is, more than 8 billion yuan.

This... This is impossible even if you use all your imagination.

Domestic cinemas have limits, and so do domestic audiences.

It can be said that at present, the ceiling of the Chinese market is almost avatar four years later, with a total of 1.4 billion yuan.

Therefore, the key to more than $1 billion at the box office is to rely on the global box office.

But

It is more difficult than at home to win the global box office.

At present, only Hollywood can take all the world, and all distribution channels are in the hands of others.

You can say so.

At present, the most successful non English film at the box office in the world is Hayao Miyazaki's Chihiro, with a total of about US $250 million.

"Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon" and "hero" also rank at the forefront. Except for the U.S. box office, they are only more than $100 million.

So

How difficult is it to earn box office worldwide?

Hollywood has a global box office of more than $1 billion a year, that is, about one or not even one.

Only the top Hollywood A-level masterpiece can get a box office of $1 billion around the world.

In 2005, the global box office of Chinese films exceeded US $100 million, which is not only a celebration of the whole world, but also a national light.

I couldn't find one for years.

Therefore, in everyone's view, Wang Huan's challenge is so absurd.

Seems so stupid.

Something you can't even dream of.

How dare you say it and make such a bet?

No wonder those people in China can't wait to scold.

Even, he was directly accused of betraying the country.

Wang Huan's supporters, of course, have countless fans.

But they were also frightened.

I think it's impossible to do, and I think it's a gamble that must be lost.

Even, I can't imagine why Wang Huan put forward such a challenge?

It's not necessary at all.

And even when they want to refute, they have no confidence in themselves.

………………

After returning to the consulate.

Everyone looked at him, a little strange. And Wang Huan didn't discuss it with them in advance.

So he just came forward and patted his shoulder. He didn't know what to say.

Soon, Wang Huan received a call from Wu Sansi.

"Boss, how much does it cost to make the three body trilogy? My family paid it, and it doesn't matter if I lose it."

According to Wu Sansi's conjecture, shooting these three films is definitely an astronomical investment, which may exceed 300-400 million yuan.

His family can afford this money. The key is that Wang Huan helped his family win more than this money.

"No, I'll pay the money alone." Wang Huan said.

Wu Sansi was stunned and said, "boss, do you have so much money?"

Wang Huan said, "not now, but soon."

Next, Li Changsheng, President of the chamber of Commerce, came to Wang Huan.

"Mr. Wang Huan, although I think this challenge is bound to lose. It's entirely an egg against a stone, but we are willing to invest." Li Changsheng said: "in the United States, I know too well that the power of film is too great, and its influence far exceeds that of books. So even if we lose money, we are willing to invest in your film."

Then, Li Changsheng said: "according to the United States, this trilogy needs at least about $500 million, but in China, it should not be so much money, so hundreds of people from our chamber of Commerce raised a sum of money and were willing to pay $100 million to shoot this film."

Wang Huan said, "thank you very much, Mr. Li Changsheng, but I really don't need it. I'll pay the money alone."

Li Changsheng was stunned and said, "you, do you have so much money? How much do you want to invest in this film?"

Wang Huan said, "the top is not sealed!"

Suddenly, Li Changsheng was also frightened by this tone.

……………………

Next, Wang Huan welcomed a very familiar visitor.

Charlie, who helped him publish the first book of the three bodies.

Of course, not long ago, when Zhang Enzi framed Wang huanqiang to annihilate her, this Charlie directly drew a line with Wang Huan, and publicly announced in the media that he disgusted Wang Huan and no longer had any cooperation with Wang Huan.

Never cooperate again.

But now he's here again.

"Mr. Wang Huan, it's great to see you all right. The moment you were shot, I immediately felt that my heart was shot and my whole body seemed empty." Charlie said emotionally: "You don't know how happy I am when you read the dangerous period. In order to pray for you, I haven't even touched a woman for a whole week. You are my best friend."

Uh!

Then he took out a newspaper.

"My God, Mr. Wang Huan, your book still ranks first in the New York Times. It's terrible."

"You've been dominating the list for nearly three months. Who knows how many books you've sold now."

Alas!

That's ridiculous.

When Zhang Enzi slandered Wang huanqiang's annihilation case, his book sales fell from the first place in the New York Times list.

Moreover, countless bookstores took his books off the shelves, and countless people burned and tore up his books.

After that, the video proved that Wang Huan was innocent and flawless.

Then he was assassinated again.

In this time, countless bookstores moved his books back to the most prominent position.

Countless people ran back to buy the book because they burned it.

Inexplicably, the sales volume of "three body" has increased by a large margin.

Up to now, it has been the first place in the list.

It's not just the United States, it's the same all over the world.

Especially two days ago, when Wang Huan and the president of the United States had this amazing gamble.

Trisomy is on fire again.

It caused another sales frenzy.

Publishers all over the world, making money, keep reprinting and reprinting.

I don't know what edition it is.

The total sales volume is already an astronomical figure.

Of course, these royalties have not been recorded so quickly.

No, Langdon book house begged again immediately.

Wang Huan said, "Charlie, I remember you said that nausea would cooperate with me and would never cooperate with me again."

"Pa, PA, PA, PA..." Charlie slapped himself in the face without saying a word, and he slapped himself more than a dozen times.

"Dear Wang Huan, what 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 made a great mistake. My boss has told me. If I can't ask your forgiveness, I can get out of my present position."

"Mr. Wang Huan, as long as you can forgive me and let me do anything, I can really do anything, even give my wife, if you are interested."

Because the amount involved in this business is not millions of dollars, nor tens of millions of dollars, but hundreds of millions of dollars.

For such great interests, what else can't be paid? What else can't be sacrificed?

Wang Huan looked at Charlie kneeling on the ground, ignored him and walked back to his room.

Next, two bodyguards threw Charlie out directly.

………………

The next day!

Random House published a news in the newspaper that Charlie, the manager of the New York branch, was dismissed by the headquarters because he was suspected of commercial corruption.

But this is not the end. Next, another petition from Langdon book house took Charlie to court.

He is accused of illegally embezzling more than $5 million of the company's assets. If convicted, he will be sentenced to several years.

How cruel!

Next, the CEO of Langdon book house came to visit Wang Huan and sent incomparably rich gifts.

And two checks.

Both are astronomical figures.

The first check is to settle the royalties of the first part of the three bodies.

The second check is to advance the royalties of the second and third parts of the three bodies.

Wang Huan has never seen so much money.

"I know that with your pride, we will never borrow or raise funds, so we paid the royalties in advance, hoping not to affect your major events." the CEO said: "by the way, is this money enough? If not, we can add more."

Wang Huan said, "now that you've given me the royalties for the second and third films, aren't you afraid of the following two films? Are they very, very bad?"

The CEO of Langdon Bookstore said, "you really like to joke. Sometimes I doubt my moral character and how wonderful your book will be. Maybe you will find it very absurd. I often have the contents of the last two parts of your three bodies in my dreams these days."

Wang Huan said, "well, enjoy the cooperation."

"As like as two peas, Landon," CEO said, "happy cooperation, and I know that you may not love Landon's four words. We set up a company for you, so the new company is signed. But the distribution channel is the same. I hope this idea can make you feel a little comfortable."

Alas!

It has to be said that capitalists are sometimes so hateful that people gnash their teeth and want to be torn to pieces.

But sometimes, even more considerate than your family.

Wang Huan took the contract and found that the name of the new company was called advent school.

Full of three body style.

I have to say, this idea is really used to the extreme.

……………………

The manuscripts for the second and third parts of three bodies are ready-made.

Both Chinese and English.

Ten days later, the last two parts of three bodies will be released simultaneously all over the world.

Suddenly

The sales frenzy caused by it can't be described in words.

Originally, the reputation of the first film has been very, very huge.

Coupled with the recent gambling between Wang Huan and the president, and the film he wants to make is "three bodies".

Therefore, the popularity of this book in the world is almost as high as heaven.

More than all the books published in recent years.

In the first part of three bodies, he had two opponents.

The second and third films are released, and there are no rivals in the world.

Almost all the famous artists avoid this schedule.

Sales swept the world.

Swept countless lists.

On the New York Times sales list, the first is trisomy 2, the second is trisomy 3, and the third is trisomy 1.

The top three were all bullied.

And even more frightening is that this situation will last for a long time.

Because until 2007, this book will have an amazing popularity.

Wang Huan's amazing gamble with the president of the United States.

Of course, put aside the gamble.

Countless readers are once again shocked by the imagination of trisomy 2 and trisomy 3.

Simply watching the plot, the first one is best written, very delicate.

In the second part, the plot and human nature are super first-class, and the imagination is more grand, and the scene has been transformed into the universe.

In the third film, the imagination is boundless.

Has written about the survival of the whole universe.

The whole earth, even the whole solar system, has become insignificant dust.

As for the early civilization of the three bodies, the ox and fork soared to the sky, it has long perished for countless years.

A drop of water destroyed all the fleets of the earth.

Advanced alien civilization, using dimension reduction strike, turned the solar system into a gold foil and a two-dimensional plane.

Countless people were completely shocked by this imagination.

Really intoxicated and amazing.

But

But

But

How do you shoot this?

Even the American film industry can't make such a magnificent picture of the universe.

Star Wars prequel is already the pinnacle of Galaxy war.

But... It's about interstellar war, about the confrontation of space warships, that's what it is.

You can't shoot the epic space war in trisomy.

Even many scenes can be expressed in words in the novel.

But... It can't be shown in the film.

For example, there is no description of the shape of the trisomy in the novel.

How do you shoot?

And the universe, this space, that space?

How do you shoot?

How should these space warships be designed?

Be scientific, professional and imaginative.

When countless readers see these words, they are only huge, too awesome and too mysterious.

They have only a very hazy impression in their mind, and they can't imagine what it looks like.

However, they have become a very, very mysterious, very, very loser.

Although they don't know what the scene is.

However, as long as you don't look good and don't have the cow they imagined, you will be a failure.

We'll spray you.

Then, a senior executive of paramount, the current boss of Hollywood, said in an interview: "even in the American film industry, it will take about ten years to reach the relevant level, or even not enough, if you want to better shoot three bodies."

The reporter asked, "how much money would it cost to let paramount shoot this work?"

Paramount high-level said: "the trilogy, light shooting cost, needs about more than $1 billion. The most important thing is that this work is very, very difficult to shoot and difficult to form a script. His scene is very grand, full of extraordinary imagination and is an epic work. But it is very unfavorable to change into a script. It is difficult for you to measure the depth and wonderful accuracy."

"In the first film, the story is very delicate, but it has several perspectives, which makes it difficult for the film to be coherent and cohesive. In particular, how to shoot the virtual game? If you make great efforts to shoot it, it is just a game. If you don't shoot it, it is very important."

"There is also the second film, the encounter of those facing the wall, and the human changes and the world catastrophe before the three body fleet reaches the earth. Should we shoot it in detail, or should we shoot it in the form of a documentary from a third perspective?"

"There are also three body people who expel all mankind to Australia. Should we use the first perspective, a big book, or a documentary?"

"Finally, how to shoot the story 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 needs to invest some emotion. This huge span of several times is very easy to cause emotional fault."

"So" three body "is a great work, but even if it is handed over to Hollywood, he is also full of difficulties. We dare not do it."

Next, not only paramount, but also other Hollywood giants have expressed their opinions.

We dare not do it.

Even the top management of Lucas film, who shot Star Wars, said bluntly: "the three body book is very good, but it is not suitable for adaptation into a film. The first film is already hell level adaptation difficulty, while the second and third films are more difficult to change and can't be completed at all."

This should be the top company for making science fiction films and star movies.

Even they said that the film "three body" could not succeed and could not be adapted.

Fox Film said: "first of all, even with the current film industry in the United States, we want to shoot three bodies perfectly It's an impossible thing, maybe more than ten years later. But it's destined to be a cost-effective project. Because in the middle and late stages, it lacks a protagonist, and it lacks a complete story. If a film doesn't have a protagonist, the audience's emotion can't be substituted. Therefore, as a book, it's a super classic. But as a film adaptation, it's a disaster Difficult. "

"And there is a very serious point. If this work is not adapted, it can't be shot. If it is adapted, it may lose its original connotation and lose its color."

"So it's a classic, but it can't be adapted into a film."

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 not well show the pictures required by the three body universe war.

In the extremely weak Chinese film industry, it is even more impossible.

That garbage fifty cents special effect will only completely destroy the film.

Wang Huan's decision to complete the shooting of these three films in China is completely stupid. The final effect can only be ugly.

Secondly, the work can hardly be adapted.

In short, Wang Huan is absolutely out of his mind to challenge the United States on this project.

This is no longer doomed to failure.

But how bad he will be. 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 or accept any interview. He directly put it back to Hangzhou and returned to his home.

When you get home.

He once again entered the tower of doom.

I've been out for almost half a year.

Finally back!

Wang Huan sighed: "star Wen, I'm back. Now it's time to start performing a real miracle, a real light and shadow miracle to the world, let them know what is the real peak of the film, and let them know what is the real magic picture."
