If it is an accident that the first movie adapted from "1999" sold 800 million US dollars, then this movie adapted from "Jurassic Park" once again caused a sensation around the world, and it must no longer be described as accidental.

Therefore, the remaining major film companies in Hollywood, knowing that they were inferior to Fox, also reluctantly chose to give up on fighting each other, but turned their heads and began to think about Huo Yaowen, the original author and screenwriter.

In their opinion, the two movies "1999" and "Jurassic" can be big hits, and Huo Yaowen, the author, plays a crucial factor, after all, if the original book sells well, it will still be of great help to the box office, which is already very common in Hollywood.

It's like the book "007" written by a British author, after being adapted into a movie, has been very popular with the public, resulting in many years of longevity.

In fact, in addition to Huo Yaowen, many science fiction writers in the United States, and even some science fiction writers in Britain and Europe, are in the field of vision of these film companies, but the works of many science fiction writers are too whimsical, and they are fighting in the galaxy at every turn, and this picture is difficult to shoot in movies.

Moreover, these people's works have not passed the test of the film market, and they have invested tens of millions of dollars to shoot, and the probability of loss is still very large, so they will focus on Huo Yaowen, who has been adapted into movies and sold well.

"I don't know what you've heard, but I certainly didn't receive an invitation from Paramount. Hearing this reporter's words, Huo Yaowen was stunned for a few seconds, and he didn't know if it was true or not, but if he revealed his intention to sell the script to the outside world, it was really possible that a script would sell for one million dollars in Hollywood, and who would make the movies adapted from his two works a big hit!

"1999" has a global box office of 800 million, although there is water, but there must always be dry goods, and this "Jurassic Park" is expected to break one billion, which makes dinosaurs a hot topic all over the world.

Spend a million dollars to buy a script, and Hollywood's deep-pocketed film companies will definitely approve of it with both hands, and they will be very happy to see it.

"Mr. Huo, may I ask ......?"

Seeing that there were still people who wanted to ask questions, Huo Yaowen hurriedly glanced at Wen Yingguang next to him.

Lao Wen is also a good subordinate who knows how to solve problems for the boss, and immediately stepped forward to push the reporters away, and then blocked himself in front, so that the boss could enter the company safely.

……

When Huo Yaowen stepped upstairs, the employees he met along the way all looked at their bosses with adoring eyes!

An adapted film is expected to sell a billion dollars at the global box office, which is almost impossible in Hong Kong, but its own boss did it, and Huanyu's branch in the United States also participated in the investment of the film, and some crew colleagues in Hong Kong even went into battle in person, even if they did not participate in the filming of the film, as a member of the company, they are naturally honored in their hearts.

"Boss, boss!"

Qingxia, who was chatting with friends at the top of the stairs, immediately ran over excitedly when she saw her boss going upstairs and said: "Boss, I watched that "Jurassic Park", the shooting was so good, although it was a little scary, but the picture was really realistic! ”

This "Jurassic Park" is very much in line with Spielberg's style at this time, and the "Jaws" he filmed the year before last is also based on horror and horror, as if the ubiquitous shark has become a nightmare for those on the beach.

"It's kind of scary. ”

While speaking, Huo Yaowen's eyes glanced at a somewhat shy girl beside Qingxia, a little familiar, take a closer look, this is not a "man's wife"!

Zhang Aijia noticed Huo Yaowen's eyes, walked over and said respectfully, "Mr. Huo." ”

"Who is this?"

Although Huo Yaowen recognized this person as the "man's wife" Zhang Aijia, he still pretended to look at Qingxia and asked.

"This is Zhang Aijia, also from Wanwan, recently wanted to shoot Director Li's "Dream of Red Mansions" with me, I saw that she didn't find a place to live for the time being, so she arranged to live in my house. Qingxia said this, paused and said: "Boss, Ai Jia is so amazing, she won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actress last year!"

What Qingxia didn't know was that Zhang Aijia joined Golden Harvest Film Company to make movies in 71, but she returned to Taiwan to film in 73.

Huo Yaowen boasted: "Ai Jia, right? won the Best Supporting Actress at such a young age, which is very good among actresses of the same age." ”

For Zhang Aijia, Huo Yaowen's impression is not only on the "man's wife", that is, "Bobo", the heroine in the tear-jerking "The Story of Ah Lang" starring her and Fa Zai.

"Mr. Huo is overrated. Zhang Aijia hurriedly said.

Looking at Zhang Aijia, who had not yet grown into a man's wife, Huo Yaowen laughed "hehe", said a few more words to Qingxia, and then turned around and walked towards the office upstairs.

After the people left, Zhang Aijia breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Whew, I'm nervous." ”

"What's there to be nervous about. ”

Qingxia looked at her suspiciously.

Zhang Aijia said: "You don't understand, this is the first time I have seen Mr. Huo himself." ”

"Don't worry, the boss is very gentle, you see I wasn't nervous at all when I talked to the boss just now, why don't you consider coming to our world?"

"This ...... Let's talk about Qingxia. ”

The two chatted as they walked.

……

In the office, Huo Yaowen had just taken a few sips of tea when he saw Wen Yingguang knocking on the door and walking in, he couldn't help but put down the teacup, looked up and asked, "How did those reporters handle?"

"It's all taken care of. ”

Wen Yingguang walked over with great interest at this moment and said: "General manager, you would never have thought that the box office in Japan has sold 7.5 billion yen. ”

"7.5 billion! The news you just received?" Huo Yaowen was a little surprised, this number is very high, more than a billion worse than "1999" three years ago, if it continues to be screened for a month or two, no matter how much it grinds, it will reach 10 billion.

"I just received the news, and I asked people to calculate that in the past month or so, the global box office has been about 400 million US dollars. ”

won almost 400 million US dollars in more than a month, and if it was still screened for half a year like "1999" at the beginning, it would be a matter of time before it broke one billion!

Thinking that "Jurassic" is expected to become the world's first film to break one billion, Huo Yaowen is still a little excited in his heart.

After drinking several sips of tea, he barely eased the excitement in his heart, and suddenly remembered Zhang Aijia he had just met, and he asked: "By the way, I met Qingxia downstairs just now, she said that she was filming "Dream of Red Mansions" with Director Li, and the company has a director surnamed Li?"

"It's Li Hanxiang. ”

Wen Yingguang replied: "Director Li came to me a few days ago and wanted to invite Qingxia to film, but I couldn't refuse, so I agreed." ”

Hearing that it was Li Hanxiang, Huo Yaowen frowned, looking for Qingxia to shoot "Dream of Red Mansions", he always felt weird, the "Dream of Red Mansions" he filmed not long ago was a taboo blockbuster.

"It's not a Fengyue film!"

Wen Yingguang hurriedly explained: "Qingxia is a skewered Jia Baoyu, and there is a little girl from Taiwan who plays Lin Daiyu. ”

"Oh. ”

Huo Yaowen really has the impression that Qingxia is playing Jia Baoyu in his mind, and seeing that it is not a Fengyue film, it doesn't matter whether Li Hanxiang borrows someone or not, he just told him the principle that the company does not make Fengyue films.

……

Evening.

Huo Yaowen went home.

Anna took Huo Yaowen's coat and said, "My dear, Uncle Huo called to find you just now, it seems a little important, let me notify you when you come back, and let you call back early." ”

Huo Guantai?

"Well, I see, I'll call you back now. ”

Huo Yaowen responded, and when he was about to go to the phone to call back, Xiaobao and Xiaohu, the two little children, wanted to pester him who had just come home, and Anna hurriedly took him away one by one.

Looking at the reluctant cute daughter, Huo Yaowen smiled, picked up the phone book on the table one by one, rummaged through the number, and then called back to Huo Guantai.

A few "beeps", the moment the phone was picked up, Huo Guantai said, "Yaowen." ”

"It's Uncle Huo, I just came back, and I heard Anna say you're looking for me?"

"Well, if you don't call, I'm about to call you again. ”

Huo Guantai spoke very quickly, as if things were in a hurry, "This afternoon, President Liang of Xinhua asked me to come out for tea......

"Going north?"

Huo Yaowen raised his eyebrows and glanced at the calendar hanging on the wall, September 17, 1977, reform and opening up should be next year, why invite Huo Guantai to go north at this time.
