Chapter 747: Alternative Interpretation (Second Update)

Even Lin Han could not completely influence the publisher's decision, and the news of the early release of "Hyperion" did not reveal anything. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After all, Zhao Han must make good contact with bookstores and online shopping websites across the country, and notify them one by one, so as not to miss some dealers.

Otherwise, everyone else is selling, and his family has not received a notice to start selling, and there will definitely be complaints in his heart!

"Hyperion" has indeed won a lot of awards, and the literary narrative in it is actually not accepted by the largest group of people, as can be seen from the first printing of "The Fall of Hyperion" with 3 million copies.

At the beginning, "Interstellar" was more than just printed!

Lin Han hung up the phone, he felt that it was a very good thing for his novel to meet readers in advance, and sales were nothing to him.

Working hard to write ten novels may not be as profitable as making a "Matrix"!

What he values more is the pleasure that these novels bring to the reader themselves.

At present, Chen Jiaxuan has gone out shopping with her elders and sisters-in-law, and the rest of them have their own affairs, but they will only get together for dinner in the evening.

So Lin Han looked at his WeChat, and he decided to agree to Wang Bin's invitation to see what kind of bitterness this guy wanted to find himself!

Driving to Yintai Shopping Center, Lin Han parked the car according to the guidance of AutoNavi Map, and then took the elevator to find the Hansen Billiards Hall located in Building 3.

The dimly lit billiards hall doesn't seem to be particularly crowded, perhaps because of the Spring Festival, when young people working hard in Beijing return to their hometowns for the New Year.

At this time, Wang Bin was putting a pair of feet on the coffee table, and he was leaning on the sofa drinking beer alone.

After he saw Lin Han, he raised the wine bottle and said, "You're finally here, I'll wait for you for almost an hour!"

Lin Han picked up a bottle of beer on the coffee table, then unscrewed the cap and poured a few sips into his mouth, "You should be proud of the spring breeze now, how can you drink stuffy wine?"

"Where can I be proud, it should be frustrated. The most annoying thing is to open high and go low, and now the reputation has completely collapsed, and the box office is decreasing every day. Alas, it's a good thing I wasn't at the same time as you, otherwise the contrast would have been obvious. ”

At present, the Douban score of "True and False Monkey King" has dropped to 5.6 points, and the Maoyan audience score has also dropped from 8.7 points to 7.9 points, and word of mouth has greatly affected the box office!

In the three days of release, except for breaking 200 million on the first day, it is almost getting worse, and as of 3 pm today, the box office has just exceeded 50 million, I don't know if it can break 100 million.

Driving high and walking low is a feature of many fan movies, but I didn't expect "True and False Monkey King" to also enjoy such treatment once.

Lin Han touched Wang Bin with a beer bottle, and said comfortingly: "As long as you can make money, isn't the box office about to break 500 million yuan now! ”

"This is only 500 million box office, at least the domestic box office has to exceed 1 billion to make money, and my film has no overseas market. ”

Wang Bin is the largest investor in "The True and False Monkey King", and the production cost of the film has reached 230 million yuan, plus nearly 100 million yuan in publicity and distribution costs, it does seem difficult to recover the cost!

In fact, the production cost of this movie in front of me is not so high, mainly because the previous version of "True and False Monkey King" has been completed, but Wang Bin is not satisfied with the plot and actors.

stunned to kill that version and replace it with the main actors of the TV series version of "Journey to the West" for reshooting, which made the cost soar.

Generally speaking, the box office of a movie needs to be three times the cost to recover the cost, and at present, it took four days for "True and False Monkey King" to break 500 million at the box office, and one billion seems far away!

Wang Bin took on most of the investment, so his loss was the most serious, even if he made a lot of money before, but a loss was tens of millions of dollars, which was not a small amount of money at all.

"Don't say it's you, there are a lot of movies that hit the Hollywood box office. You don't have to worry, it's not difficult to choose a good book later, find a group of reliable actors, and make a good movie!"

Lin Han's ability to comfort people is really not strong, and he doesn't know what he should say.

Wang Bin put the wine bottle aside, he walked to the billiard table, picked up the cue and said, "How about it, let's have a game?"

"Come on, I haven't played billiards in a long time, and my hands are a little raw. ”

Lin Han is not modest, he is really a stranger, and playing billiards is really not what he is good at.

"Don't make excuses for your fiasco, do we play snooker or nine-ball?"

It seems that it is no accident that Wang Bin asked Lin Han to come to the billiards room to borrow wine to relieve his sorrows this time, his posture still looks quite bluffing, and the posture of teeing off is very professional.

In comparison, Lin Han is much inferior, he hits the ball completely by inspiration, relying on visual inspection to calculate the trajectory, and the size and angle of the strength are not particularly well controlled.

Rampage all the way, there is no rule at all!

After three rounds, Lin Han crushed the past without any suspense, which also made Wang Bin feel better.

"If you don't play it, you won't play it, why do you think my movie has such a dismal reputation?"

This is the knot in Wang Bin's heart, it took more than a year and spent two or three hundred million yuan to get in, but the result is like this.

Lin Han is not a professional critic, he hesitated for a moment, and said: "Maybe you shouldn't choose the original cast of the TV series." Now it seems that it is obviously doing more harm than good, making many people feel like they are watching a TV series. ”

Choosing the original cast is inherently risky, and this is not on the earth, the feelings of the "Journey to the West" TV series have only been brewing for more than two years, and everyone is tired of watching the master and apprentice on the TV for the time being.

If it is after 10, 20, or 30 years, if the original team is invited again, then the feelings will be successfully fermented!

"Come on, it's because I want to succeed so much. If this script were given to you, would you be able to turn decay into magic?"

"I don't know. I can't say what didn't happen, and I'm not omnipotent. Lin Han stood up and patted Wang Bin on the shoulder, "You continue to be decadent here, I have to go back to dinner, everything will be fine." ”

When he saw Lin Han open the door of the box and was about to walk out, Wang Bin shouted loudly, "Thank you!"

During the Spring Festival, I can run out and listen to myself complaining, and this friendship can be regarded as excellent.

……

After Lin Han went home for dinner, he was a little bored, so he turned on the computer.

In the afternoon, Wang Bin's words gave him a little inspiration, and the interpretation of "Journey to the West" in this world did not go deeper.

For example, the current "True and False Monkey King" follows the original route, and it doesn't seem to be expanded at all.

He was idle anyway, so he wrote a long blog post, which is much more interesting than writing a book!

The new Weibo title party is gorgeously launched:

"The real Monkey King was killed, and it was actually a six-eared macaque who accompanied Tang Seng to learn scriptures!"

This is the plot that Lin Han discussed on the Internet in his previous life, and the results of various research by the Dark Journey to the West analysis party.

It just so happens that "The True and False Monkey King" is being released now, and everyone knows how to identify the Monkey King and the six-eared macaque.

The two Monkey Kings made trouble until they went to heaven and into the underground sea, and in the end, it was the Buddha who used a golden bowl to fix the six-eared macaque, so that Sun Wukong could kill it with a stick.

The story seems simple and complete, but it can also be a big foreshadowing!

"You may think I'm crazy when you see this title, Sun Wukong was born and raised, and he didn't put it to death when he made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, how could a six-eared macaque let the protagonist of Journey to the West be replaced?

Now let's assume that if the one who was killed was Sun Wukong, the one who survived was a six-eared macaque.

First of all, the two monkeys are exactly the same, and no one can see it. Not only are they exactly the same in appearance, but even their supernatural powers and magic weapons are the same! Even if they lie to everyone that it was a six-eared macaque that died, the rest of the people would not be able to tell the difference.

Secondly, before and after the plot of the true and false Monkey King, Sun Wukong's personality has changed very much, he was unruly before, but he was much gentler after that. It is said that the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change, and it is impossible for people like Sun Wukong to change themselves easily, the only explanation is that the Sun Wukong in the back is actually a six-eared macaque!

In addition, we can venture to guess that the six-eared macaque may be a nursery arranged by Rulai. Everyone knows that Sun Wukong is a rebel, and Rulai is the ruler, and no ruler will allow a rebel to live in the world. The six-eared macaque is the best person he uses to replace Sun Wukong, killing Wukong invisibly.

After the two monkeys made a big fuss in the underworld, the mount of the Jizo King Bodhisattva, Di Ting, knew the truth and falsehood, but he didn't dare to say it, it was just afraid of the fake monkey's backstage.

In Buddhism, it is obvious that there is only the Buddha of the Buddha, and even the rest of the Buddhas can not make Di Ting so afraid!

……”

Next, Lin Han also listed a series of arguments to support his arguments, and his long Weibo directly made readers confused!

"Journey to the West" can still be interpreted like this?

There are so many things hidden behind the real and fake Monkey King?

This is a shocking discovery!

Why didn't the crew of "True or False Monkey King" look for you to be the screenwriter, I have to go to the cinema for this plot!"

"I have a chilling feeling that this interpretation is true or false? Why did I just go and review the conversation between Rulai and Wukong, and think that Mr. Lin made sense?"

"I'm very puzzled, Mr. Wu Chengen's coffin board is estimated to be unable to be suppressed!"

"My Wukong can't just die like this. ”

"What is not said in the original novel cannot be counted. ”

"I don't think it's likely, but it's a novel perspective. ”

"Teacher Lin, this is serious nonsense, it's completely entertainment!"
