Zhang Junsheng had been on "Interview with Yang Lan" once before, and his impression of her was not very good...

Originally, he didn't want to participate in this recording, but Yang Lan had a good relationship with Zhang's mother, and even if she was an aunt, Zhang Junsheng was not easy to refuse.

He doesn't like Yang Lan...

Very typical elite egoist.

Ben is a person who chases fame and fortune.

I want to package myself so high.

Not only for profit, but also for fame, the key is the lack of strength.

However, most of the circles he contacts are such people, so it doesn't matter...

In essence, he is also an egoist, except that his eating appearance is not so ugly!

In this show, I only plan to be an observer and make an occasional speech.

……

The three of them entered the studio and sat down separately.

The venue is small, there is no auditorium, and it is arranged in the style of a study.

Yang Lan's sunshine media is quite embarrassing, when it was first created, it could also use programs such as "Interview with Yang Lan", "Women in the World", "Green Influence" and other programs to create signboards, but after the mainland media industry officially started, there was no place for it!

The three keywords of high-end, elite, and senior are completely opposite to mass popularity!

Few TV stations are willing to buy...

Now I can only rely on connections, broadcast late at night, and simply sell to a few video companies, the price is very low, because no one watches...

"Ready!"

"3, 2, 1, in!"

The on-site director shouted, and the camera first focused on Yang Lan: "In the past few years, Chinese films have developed rapidly, and with the development of films, the word IP has become a craze.

"First of all, I want to congratulate Junsheng, I finally disclosed my girlfriend, I think Sister Ning must be very happy!"

“… I'm not particularly happy, and now I'm giving birth to a child..."

"I'm very happy that you're here today, I've wanted to talk to you for a long time, but I haven't had a chance. Actually, you give me a bit of a mystery, I can hear you often, but it's hard to meet you!"

“… In the past few years, I have deliberately avoided the media, and I don't think there is any need to market myself too much..."

"Why do you think so?"

Zhang Junsheng thought for a while and replied: "Because many of my ideas are not necessarily correct, there is no need to influence others!"

"For example?"

“… For example, I used to be very sharp and felt that the whole world was inferior to me, but now I don't see it that way, now I can watch people scolding me on the Internet very calmly, and I am willing to do some thankless things!"

Yang Lan frowned, she didn't expect Zhang Junsheng to become oily...

Seven years ago, Zhang Junsheng was on "Interview with Yang Lan", which was both sharp and profound, and he could dung the marquis of ten thousand households back then...

"Okay, let's change the topic, do you think IP is a panacea for Chinese films?"

Zhang Junsheng thought for a while: "... See who is in the hands!"

"In Hollywood's pan-entertainment industry, IP is at the top of the industry chain, and popular literary works, animation, film and television works, games, variety shows, etc. are all high-quality IPs. ”

"In the past two years, the film industry has been particularly hot, which has driven a lot of investment outside the film industry, but a large part of these investments come in with the mentality of making quick money, and those who are keen on IP are often these new companies, they don't understand movies, and one can make money by grabbing a popular IP!"

"Since December last year, the number of film projects has increased dramatically at one to two hundred per month, and during this year's Shanghai Film Festival, including more than a dozen newly established film companies, a number of film companies announced the list of more than 400 films. With so many projects, on the one hand, there is a talent gap, and on the other hand, how many viewers are needed to digest it to help these enthusiastic companies recover their costs?"

“… For fan-oriented IP movies, fans can only guarantee a part of the consumption, and how much box office can be brought in the end is determined by the overall quality of the film itself. If you can use non-professional stars well and make good movies, it's not a bad thing. However, for many domestic investors, whether it is a story IP or a fresh meat star, what they value is only the support of the fan economy behind them, rather than how to make a good movie, so the 'IP + fresh meat' model is easy to create bad movies in China. Such movies generally have high star salaries, and sometimes the box office is not low, which is a harm to the industry. ”

"There has never been a panacea for Chinese films, and the most correct route is industrialization!"

……

After visiting Zhang Junsheng for half a day, I finally arrived at Liu Cixin...

"If the "Three-Body Problem" movie is handed over to Hollywood to shoot, the effect will definitely shock the world!"

"Not necessarily, Hollywood has made science fiction movies for more than a century, and those are the only ones that are truly classic!"

"You wrote, including the interpretation of IT giants, from high-dimensional to low-dimensional, from Niangziguan Power Plant to industrial development to economic development, according to this division should be called low-dimensional, low-dimensional enterprises, you have worked in such an enterprise for 30 years, will there be a psychological pressure or something. ”

Arthur C. C. Clarke, the author of 2001: A Space Odyssey, has spent most of his life in a small fishing village in Sri Lanka, which does not prevent him from writing the most avant-garde and imaginative works of science fiction, so it doesn't matter where he stays. Especially in today's Internet age, you can get the same information as people in the metropolis no matter where you are, and it has little to do with staying there. ”

"What is the current sales of "The Three-Body Problem"?

"Before winning the Hugo Award, the statistics were about 700,000 sets and more than 2 million copies. After winning the award, it grew rapidly, especially after the release of "The Wandering Earth", but there is no accurate statistics, and it is estimated that it should now be 8 million copies. ”

"I think a lot of your short stories are perfect, like the structure, the long ones, like "Supernova Era" scenes are too grand. ”

"A short story is basically a summary of a long story, and at that time, it was basically impossible to publish a long story, so it could only be written as a short story. If I could have written at the time, most of the short stories would have been written as long stories. ”

Yang Lan, who asked a few questions, was a little skeptical about life...

In fact, "Interview with Yang Lan" often encounters this kind of problem!

For example, she interviewed Ji Xianlin.

"You gave up the excellent working conditions abroad and returned to China, what drove you to return to China?"

She has already preset the answers: first, the party's inspiration, second, her attachment to the motherland, third, racial discrimination in the United States, and so on...

Professor Ji just said: "There is a lot of money!"

By the way, at that time, an associate professor was 50 yuan a month, and a full professor was 80 yuan a month. At that time, Yishi Valley was only two yuan, and the salary and prices were really different, so he chose to return to China...

Yang Lan was disappointed, but still did not give up: how do you think Yenching University can become a world-class university?

Prof. Ji: Yenching University is already a world-class university. There is no question of how to be yet. But to go further, the main problem is the problem of money, the problem of education funds, if there is no money, you will not be able to hire good professors, you will not be able to run your studies well, and everything else is empty talk. At present, everything that talks about education is false, and if the investment does not increase, no matter how nice it sounds, it is a lie.

The old man is sincere...

Just like Liu Cixin now...

Yang Lan has always wanted to take Liu Cixin in the direction of literature and art, interviewing literati for a long time, just like Lu Yuai asked celebrities how bitter they were in the past...

Liu Cixin is too faceless, and insists on following his own realistic direction, this is him, he can't pretend to be a literati, so he sold the copyright of "Three-Body Problem" for 100,000 yuan...
