Cheng also Xiao He defeated Xiao He, when many readers were arguing about who was the heroine, the other readers walked away silently.

"Sou Shen Ji" is indeed an excellent film, but it has not been liked by all fans, some people just don't like this kind of theme, don't like to see emotional entanglements, and don't like to see mythological characters have the rest of their identities.

There are thousands of reasons for abandoning a book, and sometimes readers don't even know why, they just don't want to read it.

When the class bell rang, Zhang Chu and others also rushed in along the door of the classroom, and the wind time ended.

Distraction is a common thing in the classroom, and even some maverick and bold students choose to learn the rest of the content in class, and the teacher does not criticize it after seeing it.

However, An Mi, who was still discussing with Yang Ling about the heroine just now, had only been in class for less than five minutes, and the whole person began to fight with his eyelids, his head was getting lower and lower, and he was lying directly on the desk!

Zhang Chu pushed An Mi with his elbow, and the teacher's eyes had already been looking this way several times.

If the eyes can kill, presumably Anmi has been hit by countless knives.

……

After the end of the course, Zhang Chu did not go home directly, but rode his bicycle towards the Bishui Yuntian Community, where the decoration has been basically completed, and only things such as household appliances and furniture have not been bought.

If you don't have to worry about the decoration gas, you can move in in a few days, and at least the matcha will be assigned a special room for sleeping and playing.

When the vast majority of motor vehicles are jammed on the road, Zhang Chu's shared bicycle has arrived at the destination!

This is his stronghold for the next few years, so Zhang Chu observes very carefully, and if there is anything unsatisfactory, he has to find out and let the decoration company deal with it as soon as possible.

The windows are wide open, the afterglow of the setting sun spills in through the glass of the balcony, and the room looks quite well lit and breathable!

The kitchen, toilet, and bathroom are all in place, and he is very satisfied with these decorations, "I will simply look at those household appliances on the Internet later, and I don't know what to buy." ”

As a young man in the new era, if he can not go out, he will never go out, and online shopping is obviously more in line with his requirements.

Fortunately, some household appliances have already determined the specifications when designing the drawings, otherwise there is no place to buy a refrigerator or microwave oven.

The company that specializes in decorating the smell has not yet come, so Zhang Chu didn't stay long, and after making sure that there was no problem, he opened the window, and then closed the door and left.

Just as he came to the community garden, Zhou Kang's phone called again, so he simply found a bench to sit down and listened indirectly among the blooming peach blossoms.

"Uncle Zhou, do you have any good news? Don't tell me the bad news, save yourself from worrying. ”

Zhou Kang said on the phone: "Don't worry, most of the time it's good news, and this time is no exception." Random House has agreed to let you translate "Ghost Blows the Lamp", and they will sign this one for the time being. ”

Zhang Chu was a little disappointed, can this be considered good news?

It's just expected!

My cooperation with Random House is still in the honeymoon period, and it is impossible to find someone to replace me as a translator.

So his answer was weak, "Well, that's good news." ”

"Don't worry, it's just an appetizer. Chris also gave me the contact information of a Hollywood company, and a Hollywood studio has taken a fancy to your copy of Life of Pi and is planning to buy it for adaptation!"

Zhang Chu was originally leaning on the bench, but now he sat up straight and asked quickly, "Which company is coming?"

"Lionsgate. ”

"This is better than nothing. Zhang Chu comforted himself, he originally thought that there would be six major Hollywood companies that took a fancy to "Life of Pi", and then the book became an instant hit.

Lionsgate is the most successful independent production company in the entire Hollywood business, but no more successful than Warner Bros., Disney, Universal, Sony, Twentieth Century Fox and others.

Zhou Kang said with a smile: "Lionsgate is already very good, it is better than a company that has never heard of a name." They are quite strict about quality control, and if Lionsgate can take a fancy to it, maybe the rest of the companies will too. Chris said that Hollywood is actually short of good scripts!"

"You should communicate with them first and see what the conditions are. If "Youth Pi" is to be adapted into a movie, the investment must be indispensable, and it is necessary to find a reliable director. ”

Zhang Chu hopes that the film can have a positive impact on the book, rather than dragging down the book's reputation.

"That's for sure, Lionsgate just has that intention, but it hasn't made a decision yet, and it may need to be investigated. ”

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chu's face was full of excitement, he finally got rid of the situation that no one cared about, and now it was not his turn to be picky about movie manufacturers!

"It turns out that Hollywood also lacks scripts, it's amazing. ”

Zhang Chu, who has never studied American movies, is full of smiles when he rides back to the rental house at this time.

But Hollywood really doesn't lack scripts, but good ones!

Zhang Yimou, a famous domestic director, once said, "Do you know what I do all day long? Flip through! Look everywhere, look everywhere, newspapers, magazines, new books, read a little, just look for something that can be adapted into a movie script, but I can't find it!"

Scripts are not hard to find, there are so many playwrights in the United States, there are more than 100,000 movie scriptwriters or film playwrights alone, and if each of them writes a script, there will be 100,000 scripts.

It stands to reason that so many scripts are born, so Hollywood will not have a "script shortage" at all.

However, this idea is wrong, there are very few scripts that can really come in handy, many of them are thrown in the trash, and some people's scripts may not be used in their lifetime.

In today's world, thousands of stories are born every day, but the quality is decreasing. In order to find high-quality material, Hollywood filmmakers waste a lot of time on newspaper advertisements, video stores, and book charts!

Looking at Hollywood movies, there are fewer and fewer original blockbusters nowadays, and many of them are adaptations, but the sources are a little different.

Some through comics, some through books, some through real events, and some through toy plots.

Blockbusters, big productions, cinematic universes, and sequel movies seem to have become the mainstream of Hollywood, and most of those films that are innovative in theme or form have failed miserably, and Hollywood's creativity is decreasing little by little.

However, this is a good thing for writers such as Zhang Chu, which means that the probability of their works being adapted into TV and movies has increased significantly!
