"What do you think about million-dollar movie tickets?" a reporter asked.

"First of all, I am very grateful to the person who is willing to spend millions of dollars to see my film, I don't know if he is here today, and we have reserved a star seat for him. Nie Wei replied.

"And what about the film critic who sold the tickets?" the reporter asked.

"Quite business-minded, if I had his business ability, maybe I would have become the richest man in the world a few years ago. Nie Wei joked, and the reporters below also laughed, and anyone could hear that Nie Wei was satirizing the film critic.

In the laughter, Nie Wei changed his words and said with a serious expression: "But I don't agree with his approach, theoretically speaking, we Huayi gave him movie tickets in the hope that he could write a film review for us, which is an advance payment, but he received the payment, but the tickets changed hands and sold to others, which is not equivalent to taking our things to cheat money." ”

"Everyone else shouted that the middleman made less money on the difference, but he, the 'middleman', was good and made all the money. ”

"Finally, I want to say, since you sold my movie tickets for one million, you should at least write a million-dollar movie review to me to be credible, right?"

The following reporters hurriedly responded to Nie Wei, some shouted right, some shouted right, in short, they agreed with Nie Wei and despised the film critic.

Everyone's reaction was completely within Nie Wei's expectations.

It's not just a matter of credibility, the point is that the film critic's approach is too jealous, everyone gets the same ticket, why can yours sell for a million?

So there is no need for Nie Wei to say anything cruel at all, just need to release an attitude, and these guys will desperately help Nie Wei criticize that film critic.

After responding to the matter of playing millions of movie tickets, Nie Wei left the interview area with Shu Chang, even if the reporter did everything he could to keep him, he did not hesitate to leave, after all, both of them had been interviewed here for almost five minutes, and if they delayed any longer, the guests behind them would freeze.

The two of them wore down jackets and entered the screening hall, which immediately aroused countless envious eyes, after all, it was warm to watch.

"I knew I was here in a down jacket too. Cheng Kun glanced at the down jacket that Nie Wei took off, he also had a school uniform like this, which was given to him by Nie Wei, after all, Cheng Kun was also his senior brother, like Huang Xiaoming and Nie Wei also gave one.

"Don't learn from me, you're an actor. Nie Wei handed the down jacket to the staff on the side, and replied with a smile.

"Aren't you?" Cheng Kun was amused by Nie Wei's answer, as if he wasn't an actor, but what surprised him quickly was that Nie Wei really shook his head.

"I'm not going to take on the drama for the time being, and I can concentrate on directing my work, unless I come across a particularly good script and role. ”

"Really?" asked Cheng Kun in a whispered concern.

Nie Wei nodded seriously, this was something he had planned a long time ago.

"It's a pity, I still want to have a chance to play with you again. Cheng Kun shook his head regretfully, after the vicissitudes of life, the original jealousy has long since turned into today's appreciation.

"There's still a chance, I'm not going to announce my retirement. Nie Wei put his arm around Cheng Kun's shoulders and said with a smile.

"That's good. Cheng Kun breathed a sigh of relief, in his eyes, it would be a pity if Nie Wei stopped filming, you must know that among the Chinese actors, there are few who can make him admire, but Nie Wei is definitely among them.

"What are you talking about?" A small man suddenly came out from behind Cheng Kun and asked, Nie Wei looked down and saw that it was Zhou Xun.

"I didn't talk about anything, just chatting nonsense, but Brother Xun, this time I gave up going out?" Nie Wei looked at Zhou Xun with a smile, who would have thought that this big star would be an otaku, usually in addition to work, she would play games and watch movies at home, and she would not go out of the door.

"I'm always going to support your new movie. Zhou Xun smirked, and then whispered: "But there are so many people today, I'm really a little unused to it." ”

Cheng Kun and Nie Wei couldn't help but be happy when they heard this.

In these years, there are still celebrities who are afraid of many people, and Zhou Xun's house is a bit excessive.

"It doesn't matter, next year I will ask Brother Zhonglei to arrange more business activities for you, go out for a walk more, and you will not be afraid of more people. Nie Wei said with a wicked smile.

Sure enough, as soon as he heard this, Zhou Xun's whole person was like a frightened kitten, and he almost didn't jump.

"Don't, I'm tired enough of making movies, if you arrange so many more commercial activities for me, my game guild will be disbanded. Zhou Xun pouted, a look of resistance.

Of course, Nie Wei is joking, Huayi is very lenient about the activities of artists, especially top artists, and basically follows the artist's will.

Of course, a top female star like Zhou Xun, even if she wants to rest, she doesn't have much time, except for most of the time spent filming, just the activities she needs to attend for endorsements are enough for her to be busy.

After Nie Wei teased Zhou Xun, Huang Xiaoming quickly came over.

Then Jiang Xin, Lin Shishi, Yang Mi and others all came over to greet Nie Wei, until even the audience entered the arena, and the talents around Nie Wei dispersed.

Nie Wei finally met the legendary 'Brother Million', originally he thought that the other party would be a young man in his twenties and thirties, after all, people of this age are easy to be impulsive, and they will fight for face.

But Brother Million looks at least forty years old, wearing a suit and leather shoes, and looks very calm.

When the staff took him to the seat specially prepared for him, he saw Nie Wei at a glance and hurriedly walked over.

"Director Nie Wei, I like your movies so much, especially the sci-fi movies you make, I like to watch sci-fi movies when I was a child, Star Wars, Star Trek are my favorites, but those are all made by foreigners, until I have you, I saw the hope of domestic sci-fi films. ”

"Thank you for your compliment, there are many good sci-fi directors in Huaxia, who are also making their own contributions to domestic sci-fi films, I am just an insignificant member of them, and I don't deserve your praise. Nie Wei was very modest, because his achievements were obvious to all, and the audience knew it.

"You are so modest, some people make such a little achievement and blow it to the sky, how can it be like you, you are so good and so humble, no wonder you can make so many good movies. ”

Although Nie Wei didn't know what his modesty had to do with making movies, what else could he say at this time, continue to be modest.

"Director Nie, in fact, I have a reluctant invitation to come today. After Mega Praise defeated Nie Weitong, he suddenly asked a little embarrassed.

"Tell me about it. Nie Wei asked with a smile.

"Actually, I'm a science fiction fan, and for Chinese science fiction fans, there is one in our minds, just like the Bible in the minds of Christians, that one is called "The Three-Body Problem", Director Nie, have you heard of it?" asked Brother Million expectantly.

Nie Wei naturally wanted to nod, of course Nie Wei had heard of the sci-fi masterpiece "The Three-Body Problem", and even watched it several times, the author Liu Cixin is the leader of Chinese science fiction, and he has many works Nie Wei has also read them, such as "Ball Lightning", "Supernova Era" and so on.

Seeing Nie Wei nodding, Brother Million's eyes were about to light up, and he immediately said: "Then what do you think of making "The Three-Body Problem" into a movie? I believe that if this can be made into a movie, especially through your hands, it will definitely become a classic of science fiction movies." ”

Nie Wei knew that Brother Million wanted to mention this matter, although he also liked "The Three-Body Problem" very much, but this time he couldn't nod anymore.

"I like this very much, and even many years ago we contacted the author Liu Cixin, hoping to buy the copyright of this film and television adaptation, but unfortunately, the author had already sold it earlier, and the company that bought the copyright only found out after we contacted that they later sold the copyright to many companies, some of which we contacted, but unfortunately some of which we couldn't contact, so we ......"

Nie Wei explained to Brother Million with a regretful face, it's not that I, Nie Wei, don't want to shoot, but I can't shoot without copyright.

You must know that a masterpiece like the Three-Body Problem, if it is adapted into a project of at least hundreds of millions of dollars, and forcibly producing this movie without copyright, or under the premise of incomplete copyright, then it will inevitably take a huge risk, so no matter how good it is, Nie Wei does not dare to move this idea.

Originally, Nie Wei thought that Brother Million would be disappointed, but he didn't expect that after listening to Nie Wei's explanation, his expression was full of excitement.

"Director Nie, the exclusive authorization of the "Three-Body Problem" movie is now in the hands of my buddy, if you want to shoot, I will help you contact him, my buddy is also a science fiction fan, if he knows that you are going to shoot "The Three-Body Problem", he will definitely be crazy. ”

Nie Wei was taken aback, is there really such a coincidence?

can look at the appearance of Brother Million, it doesn't seem like he lied to him, if this is really the case, then this Brother Million is really Nie Wei's lucky star.

"Okay, if you can, give me your friend's contact information, we can negotiate the price. ”

"What to discuss, I'll ask him to give it to you directly, anyway, it's useless to keep the copyright in his hands, he can only wait for it to expire, it's better to give it to you, you can shoot "The Three-Body Problem" if you get the copyright, I have been looking forward to it for almost ten years, and I can finally see the hope of "The Three-Body Problem" on the big screen. ”

Nie Wei smiled, he won't make money on this cheapness, as long as the copyright price is reasonable, he will win it, "The Three-Body Problem" will definitely not lose at the box office when it is put on the big screen, and the benefits of reputation are even more.

After all, a work like "The Three-Body Problem" is destined to be recorded in the history of Chinese science fiction, and as the first director to put it on the big screen, Nie Wei will naturally be remembered by the public.

"Director Nie, in fact, I should thank you. Brother Million said suddenly.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Didn't I spend a million on movie tickets this time, but I didn't know why I became popular, and by the way, my business also became popular, and I made more money these days than in a month, thanks to you. Brother Million thanked.

He knows in his heart that although it is indeed eye-catching for him to spend one million on movie tickets, if he wants to get such attention as he does now, he actually rubs the popularity of Nie Wei and "Interstellar".

Even many fans who follow him pay attention to him because they like Nie Wei and his new movie.

Originally, Brother Million meant to use this favor to help Nie Wei win the copyright, but Nie Wei listened to Brother Million's words, but he had other ideas.

"Do you want to make yourself more popular?" Nie Wei suddenly asked Brother Million, and Brother Million was stunned.

It's really hard to answer, but Brother Million really enjoys the feeling of being sought after by everyone, so he nodded subconsciously.

"I have a way, why don't you come to my live broadcast platform and be an anchor?"

"Streamer?"

"That's right, with the fact that you still have a good following, come to our platform as an anchor, just broadcast your company and your daily life, I can let the platform give you the publicity treatment of an A-level anchor, and we don't need to sign any contract between us. ”

"Is it really possible?" Brother Million was a little moved, and a little self-doubting.

"Of course there is no problem, and now there are a lot of viewers watching the live broadcast, especially our starry live broadcast platform, the number of registered users has exceeded 200 million, and the number of online users has remained above 10 million every day, as long as you succeed, I guarantee that your business can go to the next level." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you, you're doing business. Brother Million gave Nie Wei a thumbs up and praised.

"There is also the copyright of "The Three-Body Problem", you will leave it to me, and I guarantee that you will be satisfied. Brother Million promised again, and this time it was much more solemn than just now.

Nie Wei smiled and nodded.

Helping Brother Million is completely caused by Nie Wei's willingness, many businesses have become Internet celebrities in the original time and space, and the products are also selling well, he believes that with Brother Million's current attention, it will definitely attract many people to watch after the live broadcast.

In this way, not only does Brother Million gain benefits, but the platform also pays more attention, which is a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

The key is that Nie Wei is helping Brother Million so much, so the other party naturally has to make more efforts on the copyright of "The Three-Body Problem", and from the tone of Brother Million before and after, Nie Wei can hear the change in his attitude towards this matter.

Of course, Nie Wei did not rule out the possibility that Brother Million and his so-called friend would jointly deceive him, but no matter what, this is an opportunity to get the adaptation rights of the Three-Body Problem, and Nie Wei will not easily miss it.

As he spoke, the lights of the theater gradually dimmed, the noisy sound gradually disappeared, and everyone's attention was focused on the big screen.

As the big screen lit up, Huayi's familiar logo appeared, and at the same time, Max Films' logo followed, this is not the first time the two companies have cooperated, and the previous "Inception" was a co-production between the two companies.

With the two main production companies, the signs of Huaying, Xingmei and other investors in the film have also appeared one by one, but there are not many, only three or four in total.

Walk through the opening credits and go straight to the feature film.

The camera is in a room, and it can be seen that no one has lived in it for a long time, and the bookshelf under the close-up lens is covered with dust, and the eye-catching thing is the spacecraft on the bookshelf......
