"Box office champion!"

"Congratulations!"

At the barbecue stand, Yang Ling and several people touched the cup full of beer vigorously, and then each raised his head and drank it all.

There are many barbecue restaurants next to the Yan University campus, and grilled skewers are the perfect match for cold beer on a hot summer day.

They came out this time to celebrate Zhang Chu's achievements and celebrate the major success of his adaptation of the movie!

Anmi didn't drink much, and after drinking a glass of beer, his whole face turned red, and he quickly ate a potato to pad his stomach, and then said: "We really didn't expect that the potential of your movie is so great!"

A literary film killed a Hollywood blockbuster five days after its release, how fantastical is this thing.

If someone had predicted this before the release, it is estimated that everyone would think that he must be crazy.

"Drink slowly, drink slowly, why are you more excited than I am. ”

Zhang Chu quipped that he was very happy for "Farewell My Concubine", and it was not easy to defeat "Megatron" head-on.

Although the total box office of "Megatron" is currently more than 100 million, with the support of high word of mouth, these advantages are not insurmountable, and it is already a doomed fate to catch up.

It is estimated that no one at Paramount expected that "Megatron", which had high hopes, would be overturned by a literary film, and it was simply a capsized ship in the gutter!

Sun Ruiqi patted her thigh, "I've seen your book, and I've seen this movie, I think you wrote the script so well, so much content was presented in the movie." I rarely admire a person, but I really admire you. ”

"It's all brothers, don't taunt me, what if I float up later!"

"Just kidding, do you still need us to blow it? Now Zhang Chu's blowing on the Internet is overwhelming, and everyone is applauding you. Who made you such a cow guy. ”

Zhang Chu could only laugh twice and accept this compliment.

A few people were eating and drinking at the same time, and after listening to their high-minded talk, they all shook their heads and laughed, not believing that it was true at all, thinking that a group of students were drinking too much and bragging.

Two bottles bravely, Anmi's face was already very red, his whole person seemed to be a little unconscious, shaking the empty bottle and failing to pour out the wine, "Boss, bring me another bottle of wine." No, two bottles!"

Yang Ling didn't seem to have changed at all, he shook his head and said, "Don't drink, I don't want to take care of an alcoholic tonight." ”

As a northerner, Yang Ling has been dipped in wine with chopsticks by his elders since he was a child, and now when the school student union is socializing or engaging in activities, it is no problem to drink half a catty of liquor in one go, and two bottles of beer are the same as not drinking.

"Seriously, I'm very curious about what Zhang Chu has in your head, and I want to pry it open to see. We've all been called geniuses since we were kids, but compared to you, we're not even geniuses!"

Sun Ruiqi's expression was a little lonely, Yanda is full of geniuses, and the excellence of junior high school and high school is nothing here, especially when there is such a big demon around him.

The mentality of the people in their dormitories is fairly good, but sometimes they feel discouraged.

Zhang Chu pointed to his head and said jokingly: "There is a universe inside!"

This sentence is really not lying, isn't there another universe in the messianic system?

"I felt like my head was full of water, and there was sound when I shook it. Anmi said with a confused look in his eyes.

Yang Ling, who was eating mutton skewers, almost choked, "I should have recorded this sentence, this is completely black history!"

"Sure enough, I drank too much, and the sound you heard was the sound of beer in your stomach. ”

The group talked and laughed, and before they knew it, it was almost eleven o'clock.

Yang Ling was very sober, he and Sun Ruiqi supported An Mi's shoulders on both sides, and after saying goodbye to Zhang Chu, he walked into the west gate of Yanda, ready to slowly go back to the dormitory, and eat by the way.

And Zhang Chu found a taxi, he didn't drive himself, and he didn't let the bodyguards follow.

……

Yanjing at night looks brilliant, but the prosperity is insulated from Ya'er Hutong.

Zhang Chu walked into the courtyard of his house in the surprised eyes of the driver, where he sat on the recliner without any image, unwilling to get up and take a bath.

There is hardly a star in the sky, but the cool night breeze is very comfortable on the body, especially without mosquito bites, which is much more enjoyable than staying in an air-conditioned house!

The IFI signal in the house is very good, and Zhang Chu thinks it would be better if Matcha could come over and pad his mobile phone.

His QQ and WeChat are full of congratulations, and Weibo has unexpectedly received a lot of praise, and the prestige value in the savior system, which has been stagnant, has begun to increase again, and everything is developing in a better direction.

Zhang Chu posted the barbecue pictures he took before on Weibo, and said with text: "In the past, when I scrolled through Weibo in the dead of night, I was always attracted by all kinds of food. Today I finally became a member of the late-night newspaper, the barbecue is very good, thank you for letting me have a good mood to eat barbecue!"

Without the support of fans, neither movies nor books would have been possible to achieve where they are today.

He is a man who knows how to be grateful.

The number of night owls in Summer Nights was the largest, and there were many replies very quickly.

"For the sake of you resurrecting Gandalf and getting stronger, I reluctantly forgive you for your late-night newspaper behavior!"

"Hahaha, I just finished eating barbecue, and the grilled wings look very good~~"

"Kudos to you, after writing so much content, it's time to take a good look at yourself. ”

"The barbecue is good, but don't eat too much!"

"I knew Gandalf wouldn't be so easy to lead, it turned out to fight monsters and upgrade equipment!"

"I bought the full collection of the Lord of the Rings, and I glanced at the finale, the return of the king is really about the king of people, hahaha!"

"Report! I went to see Farewell My Concubine this afternoon, and after reading it, I went to the bookstore to buy the magic ring, asking for praise and praise!"

"Congratulations to Zhang Chu for a bumper harvest and a big movie hit!"

The hard work of the past few days has finally begun to pay off recently.

In recent years, the audience's aesthetics have improved rapidly, and they have a high degree of distinction between good movies and bad movies, and now "Farewell My Concubine" has encountered a good time.

Not only is there a vast cinema, but there is also a large audience that will appreciate good works.

As more and more people go to the cinema to watch it, its score has slipped slightly, but that is a normal phenomenon, the previous Douban movie score of 9.6 points is really a bit inflated, and now 9.4 points can still be accepted by the rest of the fans.

Just when the fight on the box office list of the movie was in full swing, "Farewell My Concubine" did not have such good luck in another market, because it encountered a super big bug!

With such a strong box office performance and word-of-mouth, the original book of the same name of the movie will naturally have a considerable amount of attention, and the news in the entertainment industry is the most concerned.

It's not as good as adapting 100 commercials into a book into a movie.

The physical book sales of "Farewell My Concubine" have been declining for several days, ranking 68th on the single-day sales list when the film was released on June 12, and has returned to No. 3 after a weekend.

But this is destined to be its current highest position, whether it is physical book sales or in various e-book download places, it is stuck in the third place, and it can't climb to the top at all.

Because the books that come first and second are also his own!

"The Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King" sells slightly ahead of "The Lord of the Rings 2: The Two Towers" every day, and these two new books are released at the same time, in order to rub Zhang Chu's own popularity.

Now during the release of the movie, the most talked about is of course "Farewell My Concubine", but Zhang Chu himself is also very popular, coupled with the news that Universal Pictures spent hundreds of millions of dollars to buy the film adaptation rights, these two works firmly occupied the top two as soon as they were released.

What is strange is that the sales of the finale are actually higher than those of the middle one, do many readers go directly to the ending without watching the middle process?

And there don't seem to be a few such people anymore, otherwise it would not be possible to be so ahead every day.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy is over, so "The Lord of the Rings 1: The Lord of the Rings Appears" is naturally also a high-ranking return to the list, and many people buy the three together.

So this week's book sales list is almost going to be renamed Zhang Chu's works sales list, because the top three are all his, and there is one in the top ten!

No writer had ever achieved such a feat before, and there was no such thing as anyone who came before, and those who came after him did not know how many years it would take.

The field of books is where Zhang Chu can really dominate.

Now let alone release the book at the same time, even within a month of the release of his new book, there will be no big-name authors who want to publish the book, it is purely to find guilt!

Nanhai Publishing Company did everything to make money, and after each released the paperback version of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, they changed the cover and made a trilogy combine.

In June, Zhang Chu's fans were really painful and happy.

The pain is that there are fewer and fewer banknotes in the wallet, and the happy thing is that there are movies and new books to watch, can there be more surprises?

At this moment, there are countless fans of the rest of the author who are envious of Zhang Chu's fans, and it's great to have such a hardworking and talented idol!

Every work is good-looking, and every work is launched very quickly.

Who would have thought that such an epic fantasy masterpiece as "The Lord of the Rings" would be released in half a year?

There is no dragging in the mud, and according to the fancy method of some authors, it would take three or four years to write this trilogy.

But this is not all of Zhang Chu's achievements, movies and books have exploded, and he has another work that did not disappoint, and he also won the championship in another field.

Although the Chinese Bridge theme song "Chinese Words" sung by SHERO is not loved by her father or mother, she is like an adopted daughter picked up, but with SHERO's strong appeal and catchy song content, it quickly became the digital sales champion and online listening champion last week and this week.

There is no company to play the list and send the station, all netizens are self-congratulatory.

Three different fields, three completely different champions, now everyone is helping Zhang Chu plan, what other field of champions can be won, this is the absolute all-round crossover king!

It's a pity that "Smart Comics" failed to rank first in the sales of comic magazines, otherwise Zhang Chu would have been able to play as a champion with "That Rabbit".

The physical book of The Lord of the Rings is selling extremely well in China, as well as abroad.

Random House's strong distribution capabilities are fully integrated with the content of the book, and it has already locked in the top spot on the New York Times bestseller list on the first day of its release in North America, and the United Kingdom, France, Canada, and Australia have also won the championship at the same time!

In fact, many media are feeling sorry for "The Lord of the Rings", why should the second and third parts be released together?

Even if it is a month apart, that can guarantee more championships.

What a waste now!

Readers don't care about that, they can't be more fond of this unappetizing approach, and it's a pleasure to watch it in one sitting!

Universal Pictures saw that the popularity of the story was so high, so it also added fuel to the fire and announced the establishment of the "Lord of the Rings" movie project.

In fact, the establishment of the movie project is a very early thing, and this time Universal threw a bombshell, the Lord of the Rings trilogy was shot back-to-back, and the three films were filmed with an investment of 500 million US dollars!

Several movies are shot together, and from the perspective of shooting, it is more economical to shoot costs, although post-production of special effects also costs money.

If you are separated, each movie may cost at least $200 million, which adds up to 600 million, and now it only costs 500 million to shoot together, and you can also get tens of millions of dollars in tax rebates at the filming location, etc.

Sent together, and now the movie is also filmed together, it is really capricious enough!

It's just that Universal is not stupid enough to release movies together, they didn't finalize the schedule, but waited for the filming to start before finalizing the schedule, which is normally released once a year.

This is the normal level and arrangement.

It's not easy to structure a $500 million film crew, and it's only June now, and it is estimated that it may not be possible to get the crew up until December.

Even Universal Pictures has to be extremely cautious in front of such a huge crew.

According to this posture, it is indeed impossible for Zhang Chu to see the release of the "Lord of the Rings" movie before graduation.

Making a movie is not like writing a book, writing a book is a one-person thing, and making a movie is a thing that involves thousands of people!

With the help of the Savior system, he can sit in his study and write out the content on his own. But in any case, even if there is the original movie screen in front of you, it will never be possible to shoot it according to the gourd.

"Forget it, the Lord of the Rings movie thing is put aside for the time being, let's think about the next thing. ”

Zhang Chu began to plan seriously in his heart, seeing that the end of the semester was approaching, and the review must be done. There are not many courses this semester, and I usually study quite solidly, so there should be no problem with the exam.

There is still half a month left in the recording of "Chinese Bridge", and he is the part of recording the five continental champions and the final championship of Chinese Bridge, and the time is even later.

So, now I can finally take a little time to complete the promise to Yida Group!
