After the press conference released by West German publishing house, Galaxy film company immediately announced: "Henry Williams' new work" Da Vinci Code "will be adapted into a film. The script will be written by Henry Williams himself and directed by world-famous director Spielberg. The total investment of the film is at least 150 million US dollars. We will create the most thrilling film The film is complicated! "
The news shocked the whole nation. Henry Williams's novel is going to be made into a movie again. Jurassic Park gives people a great visual shock. The zombie of biochemical crisis is coming, which is terrifying. Every film adapted from Henry Williams' novel has brought people too many surprises, and now "Da Vinci Code" has to be adapted into a film, so naturally people are looking forward to the release of this film! What's more, this film has a huge investment, and Spielberg is the director. It will be more beautiful than you think!
Novels and movies are playing double roles. American TV, newspapers, Internet and offline propaganda are all over the place. I really want to know that the Da Vinci Code is no longer available.
People's recent topics are all around "the Da Vinci Code" and marvel movies. The name of Galaxy film company appears in the newspaper almost every day. It seems that Hollywood has nothing to do with other film companies.
At this time, the major film companies are naturally unwilling to be lonely and begin to act frequently. What are they doing? Visit Galaxy movie company
Warner CEO Jeff Bix: "I hear you're going to make a new movie again, Bob Robin. How about working together? You know, hundreds of millions of dollars in production costs plus the cost of distribution and publicity are too risky, aren't they? "
Global CEO Langmeier: "Hey, Bob, does the Da Vinci code need investment?"

Hollywood film companies are in a competitive and cooperative relationship with each other.
Most of the time, a big movie will be made by several film companies, which can reduce the risk. After all, no one knows whether the movie can make money. However, due to the existence of Henry, Galaxy film company often "plays stand-alone". But it can't last long. Henry can't drive on all the time. Moreover, if he's in Hollywood, his relationship with other film companies will not be conducive to future development.
Therefore, when Bob Robin reflected to him what other film companies wanted to cooperate with, Henry thought about it, and finally agreed: "investment is OK, but we must take the lead, and the copyright must belong to us completely, and the peripheral profits must be monopolized by us!"
In fact, Henry was a little worried. After all, these films were shot ahead of time, and he didn't know if they would sell well. It's better to bring in a few investors. In case of a loss, there will also be some people behind, won't they? If the movie is popular, it will be better. Anyway, if the copyright is in hand, it means that we have the initiative and can make a series. Galaxy film company is equal to an extra hen laying golden eggs. In particular, marvel heroes are basically made into a series of films!
"Good!" said Bobbie Robin, nodding

On the early morning of November 15, before the morning fog had completely cleared, a 20 meter long dragon stood out of the dalima bookstore in San Jose, California.
"Boss, open the door quickly!"
"We're going to buy Henry Williams' Da Vinci Code! Open the door, boss
“……”
In the bookstore, the owner Venice's face has already opened with a smile, "OK, OK, I'll open the door right away!" He turned to two employees of the bookstore and said, "get ready quickly and move out the Da Vinci Code!"
"Yes, Mr. Venice!" The staff took stacks of books out of the warehouse.
At this time, Venice will open the door.
When the sun came in, the owner of the bookstore, Venice, blinked. Then he saw a group of young men and women rush into the bookstore. The bookstore owner waved and stopped them, "line up, don't squeeze, come one by one!"
Venice immediately asked an employee to come and help, "Roy, you come and watch them, and I'm responsible for sending books. I'm responsible for collecting and changing money!" He yelled to a short employee, "Jim, you're responsible for taking stacks of books apart and bringing them here!"
"Yes, Mr. Venice!" The two employees responded in unison, and then performed their duties according to the boss's orders.
"Hey, boss, hurry up, we want to buy books!" Some guests impatiently urged.
"All right, now!" Venice took out a black glasses box from his coat pocket, then took out a pair of black frame glasses and put them on. Then he said to the young men and women in line: "at present, there is only a hardcover version of the Da Vinci Code. A book costs 50 dollars. Please have the money ready!" Books in the United States are exorbitantly expensive. Usually, novels cost tens of dollars a book. If it is a textbook, it can be called "sky high price". Very thin books cost tens of dollars, and thick books cost one or two hundred dollars. If you see a book on sale in someone's study, it's definitely a local tyrant!!!
"Boss, I'll buy one!" A 15-year-old boy at the top of the list already had the money in his hand. "Here's 50 dollars!"
Venice took the money and said with a smile, "Roy, give him a copy!"
The middle-sized and slightly fat boy immediately handed the boy a hard cover book hundreds of pages thick. The boy took the book and went out happily, looking at the cover of the book. The cover of the book is "Mona Lisa's smile", with a series of strange letters below. Young thought, this is the "code"?
The boy strode to the right side of the bookstore and sat down on a bench under a big tree. Then he couldn't wait to spread the book on his legs. Then he opened the page and began to read. The young man looked at it, unconsciously immersed in it, sometimes confused, sometimes surprised, sometimes frightened
Venice stretched up his arms with some pain, "Er, it's almost one o'clock, and I haven't had Chinese food yet. But the books are sold out! Oh, I'm so tired! " He said, rubbing his wrist again.
"Boss, did you get a cramp when you received the money?" Short Jim laughs.
"Ha ha, I would like to have cramps every day." Venice said with a smile, but then sighed, "Alas, it's a pity that our bookstore has only 500 books in it!"
"Boss, why don't you come in a little more?"
"I'd like to, but the West German press said that they don't have enough stock, and each bookstore can only be allocated according to its size. At present, the printing house is printing more copies. Three days later, the West German Publishing House promised to send another 500 copies! "
Venice said this sentence, then walked out of the bookstore, just to see not far away a young man holding a Book absorbed in reading“ Isn't he the first teenager to buy the Da Vinci Code? Why don't you read here? " Venice murmured that he had a slight impression of the boy.
"Hi, have you been reading? From seven in the morning to now? "
"Oh, it's the bookstore owner. Hello." The boy looked up at Venice and said, "yes, I've been reading here and never left. It's so beautiful that people can't extricate themselves from it
"Oh, really?" Venice's face was surprised. "It's 1 p.m. now. It's six hours since you saw it at 7 a.m.!"
"Oh, no wonder how I feel hungry..." the boy closed the book, touched the back of his head and said with a smile, "stop talking, bookstore owner, I'm going to eat Chinese food, and then read."
"You can call me Mr. Venice!"
"All right, Mr. Venice, goodbye!" The boy waved his hand and said, "my name is Aiden brown. Maybe you've heard of my father's name. His name is Dan Brown. He's also a writer. However, what I admire most is Henry Williams. He is really a genius
