February 1 is getting closer and closer, and Zhang Chu's fans are not in a hurry to urge the updates of "Wanli Fifteen Years" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2", all their attention is on the upcoming premiere of "Sherlock"!

This TV series has invested a lot of BBC publicity resources, and netizens in mainland China are even more excited than overseas netizens.

Obviously, domestic detectives are only in their infancy, but their trust in the BBC and their confidence in Zhang Chu's works have made netizens look forward to it.

However, British netizens generally have a pessimistic feeling, and only a small number of people cheered.

After all, Zhang Chu is not well-known in Europe and the United States at all, and he has only published a book of "Sherlock" in the United Kingdom and the United States, and the subsequent works have not been translated into English and sent to other countries for the time being.

Overseas netizens discuss this TV series, mainly because of the relationship between Sherlock Holmes, after all, "Sherlock" is bred from the giant IP of Sherlock Holmes.

The Sherlock Holmes series of books and film and television works have been popular in Europe and the United States for nearly a century, and countless people are still immersed in the charm of this old-school gentleman.

As the British national broadcaster, the BBC is obviously better able to grasp the detective complex of its own people!

In fact, traditionally, the British are very fond of reading and solving crimes, and in the libraries of various neighborhoods, or in London's large and small bookstores, detectives are placed in a particularly conspicuous position.

The British have a unique detective complex, and this detective culture represented by Sherlock Holmes has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

In the UK, you can always see a variety of detective stories on the TV: The Last Detective, Murder in Blue, Sheriff Rusburn and many more.

The images of detectives full of wisdom and the murderous murders hidden behind the beautiful appearance seem to be able to be played on forever, and the people of Great Britain are happy to watch it.

In these stories, the great detectives are all born with excellent intelligence, super observation, first-class logical reasoning ability, and brave, kind and righteous, helping the society, helping the weak and the poor, and are deeply loved by the people.

The world's most famous detective stories and characters were born in England: from Christie's "Murder on the Nile" to Conan Doyle's "Sherlock Holmes".

Hitchcock, the famous master of bald suspense films, is also the pride of the British.

Nowadays, 20% of the hottest best-selling works in the UK are suspense detective works, Zhang Chu's "Sherlock" is like a fish in water in the UK, and it has never fallen from the top of the sales list, and now with the BBC's efforts, it is even rising!

To this day, the Sherlock Holmes Museum on Baker Street in central London attracts visitors from all over the world, and many Sherlock Holmes fans still have a curious heart to sit in the Sherlock Holmes office, put on his tartan hat with a tongue on the front and back, and enjoy the contemplation and enlightenment.

Sherlock Holmes and James Bond are superheroes in the minds of the British, and now that superheroes are about to land on the small screen, the attention is naturally extraordinary.

This can make Zhang Chu's fans quite proud, your pimple superhero is not written by us Chinese!

"Xiao Zhang is really powerful, I didn't like to watch this type of TV series very much, but I also bought a Tencent Video membership early to get ready. ”

"The student party said that they were crying and fainting at home, the membership is so expensive, does anyone fight for membership together?"

"Zhang Chu writes superheroes for others, why don't you create a superhero for us?"

"Anyway, it will premiere at 8 o'clock in the evening in London on February 1st, how long will we wait for the update here, and will there be any top students to help calculate the jet lag. ”

"Tencent Video is too ruthless, there are only these three episodes, and all of them require members. I don't usually watch these programs, so why don't TV stations directly introduce them?"

The complaints of netizens are not small, but Tencent Video is still firmly sitting on Diaoyutai, they spent a high price to buy the copyright of "Sherlock", not for charity, obviously will attract a large number of netizens to join their side.

Not only do you have to consider the time difference, but you also have to consider the issue of Chinese and English subtitles.

The BBC will not transmit the Blu-ray source to Tencent Video until it is played, and Tencent Video will be able to add subtitles to it at that time!

After all, Sherlock Holmes and Watson speak English, and if domestic audiences want to watch it, they must have Chinese subtitles, and there are only a few who can gnaw raw meat.

The advantage of the official translator compared to the rest of the translation team is that they can get the script of the TV series in advance, although there is no video to watch, but they can still translate most of the things according to the script!

This saves a bit of time, except that subtitles not only translate the characters' dialogue, but also explain the picture, plot or some memes at the right time.

Now the official translators of Tencent Video are working overtime to translate the script of "Sherlock", and the efficiency is really not low!

Because they have a reference, just take the book of the same name published by Zhang Chu as a reference for translation, after all, the TV series was born from this, which is quite time-saving and labor-saving.

Zhang Chu is free at home anyway, and he also wants to see if his "Sherlock" can achieve unprecedented success like the version on the earth.

This is his first film and television work, if the word-of-mouth and ratings are very good, it will be a huge blessing for the rest of the works!

In his last life, the BBC sold "Sherlock" to almost every country in the world, reaping unprecedented profits.

This time, when the first part was made, Zhang Chu only got the original adaptation and screenwriting fees, and there was no profit dividend, no matter how much money the BBC made, it had nothing to do with him.

But in his opinion, it's all worth it, the first part is just to lay the foundation, if the BBC still wants to shoot the second, third, and fourth parts, that's when he makes money!

After all, Zhang Chu was just a newcomer at the beginning, and it was impossible to get profit dividends, no matter how much the BBC liked this work, it was impossible to divide the benefits.

The ratings and word-of-mouth of the first part are Zhang Chu's hole cards, and I don't believe that the BBC will be indifferent to the follow-up plot after obtaining the high profits of the first part of Shenxia.

The more TV series are filmed, the more money can be made, Zhang Chu has no plans to write a second part now, and the copyright of Detective Sherlock is also in his hands, and it is impossible for the BBC to leave him alone to shoot.

The copyright fee alone has never been Zhang Chu's goal, how many copies do you have to sell to have a million or ten million pounds?

The profit of "Sherlock" can reach this level by casually dividing a little, and Zhang Chu doesn't have to worry about all kinds of things by himself, and the BBC will do everything.

Yangmou, Chiguoguo's Yangmou, can be said to be lying down and waiting for money to come to the door!
