In addition to film shooting, Longlin Pictures also needs to adjust.

In recent years, for the sake of tax avoidance, the so-called Longlin Pictures is just a broad concept.

In fact, it is the general name of many film companies such as Yanjing Longlin, Huoguo Longlin, Dongyang Longlin, Shenghai Longlin, Wuxi Longlin, etc., and the reason why companies are set up in these places is because there are various tax reduction policies.

The production costs of special effects blockbusters such as "Nuwa Mending the Sky" and "Three-Body Problem" with an investment of more than hundreds of millions of dollars are also transferred from the accounts of many companies.

Nowadays, the total assets of the entire "Longlin system" company are getting bigger and bigger, and it is a little inappropriate to do it as before.

Moreover, now there are calls for listing in the film industry, financial circles, political circles, and even within Longlin's company, and Lu Lin is gradually unable to suppress it.

Not counting TV dramas, variety shows and brokerage business, two special effects blockbusters every year, and more than $2 billion in box office revenue, are enough for other film companies to earn.

After the integration of such Longlin Pictures, there is no suspense that the market value will exceed 100 billion, and there are many wealthy businessmen and giants in the financial investment community who want to bite the meat, and "capable people" who want to raid the shares on the eve of listing.

The pressure in the open and in the dark, always dragging on like this, is not a long-term solution!

Because of fatigue, worries, and jet lag, Lu Lin rested early. The next day, he began to take Deng Chao, Wang Qianyuan, and Jing Xiang to meet with Gai Erjiaduo to attend the publicity activities arranged by Warner.

As for Shake Son, who played Evans, his appearance time was too short, and the contract he signed at the beginning did not include any promotional activities, so he did not appear.

In the past, Chinese-language films were released in North America, mainly in the Chinatowns of various cities. On Lu Lin's side, because it is a special effects blockbuster, with English dubbing, and Warner's large-scale distribution, it has the opportunity to enter mainstream commercial theaters.

However, Chinatowns in all cities in North America are still the "box office towns" of Lu Lin's films, and Lu Lin and others came over this time, mainly to promote the theaters in Chinatown, supplemented by the publicity of mainstream commercial theaters.

A very important reason is that the audience in Chinatown is very enthusiastic when they see Lu Lin, while the audience in the mainstream commercial theater often mistakes the creators.

For example, when Jing Yan is regarded as Fan Bai, it is said that when the young lady learns that people want her to sign Fan Bai's name, she is still very embarrassed!

In Los Angeles, a large theater in Chinatown was crowded with Chinese and overseas Chinese who came to watch the movie, begging for group photos and autographs.

But there was a temperamental beauty wearing a plain skirt, standing far away at the entrance of the studio, looking at the hot scene and smiling indifferently.

The security personnel who immediately found the scene said: "I am a friend of Mr. Lu Lin, and I made an appointment with him!"

The other party said, "May I ask who you are?"

"Shu Yuan!"

When I saw Lu Lin, it was already half an hour later. The campaign is over, and it's on our way to the next theater.

Shu Yuan sat in the same car with Lu Lin, Jing Xiang and others, Lu Lin felt quite strange and introduced them to both parties, and Jing Yuan shook hands with Shu Yuan generously, without minding at all. Or maybe she hadn't thought much of it for a while.

Shu Yuan smiled indifferently and said to Jing Yan, who was sitting in the back row together: "I just heard that he came here to promote today, come and take a look." Congratulations, "The Three-Body Problem" has swept the United States, and now many of my friends around me are talking about this movie!"

Lu Lin smiled: "Oh, what do they say?"

"The idea of saying this movie is so amazing, it must be a genius to write such a story!" Shu Yuan sighed, and Jing Yan couldn't help laughing.

Because the scripts of many movies are arranged by the director, many Americans take it for granted that the credit for the content of "The Three-Body Problem" is on Lu Lin's head.

"Well, in fact, this story is adapted from a film!" Lu Lin explained.

Shu Yuan felt that he was speechless, covered his mouth and chuckled, and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, you should know that in fact, many people don't have the habit of checking the information in detail before watching a movie." And everyone said that the special effects of this movie are too shocking, it is worth watching several times, and Hiddleston is really handsome, but it's a pity that the appearance time is too short!"

Jing Yan said bluntly: "You shouldn't be here to see him, right?"

Shu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Yes, in fact, it's just a pretense to come to see Lu Lin, I came to take a photo with Hiddleston for an autograph!"

Jing Yan said very enthusiastically, "It's easy to do!" and immediately said to Lu Lin: "Before we leave, the crew will have a meal together, invite Mr. Hiddleston, Shu Yuan, you will also come when you arrive, won't it be over!"

Shu Yuan was even more surprised, and said, "This, is it appropriate?"

Jing Yan smiled and said, "There's nothing inappropriate, it's just a meal together!"

Lu Lin and his entourage did not stay in North America for a long time, only three days, mainly to cooperate with the promotional activities of the first weekend, and strive to get a higher box office for the first weekend.

On the 13th, the box office results of the first weekend of "The Three-Body Problem" in the North American market were released, with a score of 176 million US dollars, beating the 104 million of "Minions with Big Eyes" and winning the first weekend championship.

Although it is far less than the 204.6 million of "Jurassic World", which was the No. 1 box office in the first weekend of 15 years, it is still an excellent box office result.

The executives of Warner are going crazy, if this continues, "The Three-Body Problem" is expected to exceed $500 million in the North American market, and the performance of other overseas markets will not be bad, and they can make a lot of money just by acting as an agent!

It's a pity that I couldn't participate in the investment, and when I think of this, the people at Warner are full of resentment!

Before sending Lu Lin and others on the plane, Fox still talked to Lu Lin about the benefits of Sino-US co-production, and hoped that after Lu Lin returned to China, he must seriously consider this matter!

And the news that "Three-Body Problem" won the championship in the first weekend of North America came back to China, which really made many Chinese people feel excited. After all, sci-fi blockbusters are the genre that Yankees are best at, and many sci-fi masterpieces such as "Star Wars" and "Interstellar" have been filmed.

Lu Lin's "Three-Body Problem" exploded at the North American box office, just like an American director who made Chinese martial arts masterpieces such as "Huang Feihong" and "Smiling Proud Jianghu"!

Americans all say that "The Three-Body Problem" will definitely not be bad! More and more people are going to the theater to watch the movie!

But in fact, the box office of "Three-Body Problem" in China is still good, although there are "Small Times 4" and "Gardenia Blooming", but because of the good reputation and high attendance rate, the filming of "Three-Body Problem" is rising day by day.

The first weekend won a total of 800 million box office in three days, not counting other markets, Chinese mainland and North America alone, contributed nearly 300 million US dollars at the box office, the global market is bound to explode!

As soon as this situation came out, countless film and television company bigwigs, investors, and directors turned their attention to Chinese science fiction themes. And Liu Cixin, the original author of "The Three-Body Problem", was even more hot for a while, and he almost answered the phone because he wanted to buy the copyright!
