Chapter 443 Five Million Game Adaptation Fees
After chatting with the readers in the book friend group for a while, Yang Chuan suddenly received a message from his cousin Yang Sitong.
"Xiaochuan, I heard that you have already met Davis, the editor-in-chief of Simon Publishing House, and Howard, the director of the "Da Vinci Code" movie, in Nanjiang City?" Yang Sitong sent a message and asked.
Seeing the message sent by his cousin, Yang Chuan quickly replied.
"Yes! I signed a writing contract with Mr. Davis, and all of my overseas publications were published by Simon Publishing Group, and I also participated in the promotion of director Howard's "The Da Vinci Code" film in China. ”
"Hehe, that's great!" Yang Sitong said with a smile: "It seems that you have gained a firm foothold in the North American publishing market, and I will meet with Davis tomorrow, and I will help you see if Simon Publishing Group has any activities for you to arrange at that time." ”
Yang Chuan replied: "The main thing I am now is to prepare for the new movie "The Lord of the Rings", I sold the film rights of "The Lord of the Rings" to Columbia Pictures and Television, and the film "The Lord of the Rings" will still be directed by Howard. ”
"So Sister Sitong happens to be in the United States, can you help me get in touch with Director Howard and see how the preparation of the movie "The Lord of the Rings" is? After all, this is a film based on a novel I wrote, and I will also play a role in this movie. ”
"Okay, I'll take a look at it for you." Hearing that Yang Chuan was going to play a role in "The Lord of the Rings", Yang Sitong said with surprise on his face: "Xiaochuan, I really didn't expect that your acting career would develop to the United States, it seems that you will definitely become a big Hollywood star in the future." Don't forget to sign your sister when the time comes! ”
Facing Yang Sitong's ridicule, Yang Chuan replied with some embarrassment: "Sister Sitong, don't joke with me, I don't have a great reputation in China." Not to mention becoming a Hollywood star. ”
"Huh!" Yang Sitong chuckled and said, "Okay, okay!" I'm not kidding you, I have some good news for you today, first of all, the movie "The Da Vinci Code" has now officially landed in the North American Film Market. ”
"The Da Vinci Code won the North American film sales championship in the first week, and it is said that the total box office has now reached $30 million, and the film will be released in Europe and Asia at the same time next week."
"At that time, it is conservatively estimated that the box office of the "Da Vinci Code" movie will exceed one billion, Ogawa really didn't expect that the novel you wrote would be such a sensation, and now even Time magazine in the United States has published an article saying that you are a novel genius."
Hearing that the "Da Vinci Code" movie could achieve such a good box office, Yang Chuan was also very happy. But this did not surprise him, because in his previous life, "The Da Vinci Code" achieved a very high box office.
Yang Chuan said with a smile: "Sister Sitong, even if the box office of "The Da Vinci Code" is high, it has nothing to do with me. I've sold the film and television rights now, and if I were an investor, I might be able to make more money. ”
There is no way, although Yang Chuan knows that no matter which novel he writes "The Da Vinci Code", "The Hunger Games" and "The Lord of the Rings", it can achieve a very high box office, but unfortunately he is not a director and the boss of a film and television company, so he can only sell these novels to film and television companies to make a little money.
Yang Sitong suddenly asked, "Xiaochuan." Have you ever thought about setting up your own film and television company in the future? ”
"This." Yang Chuan thought for a while and said, "Sister Sitong, to tell you the truth, I've really thought about it. In addition, I am also ready to register a cultural media company, which will be involved in a series of fields such as book publishing, film and television production, song distribution, comic publishing, and cultural planning, and I hope you can come and help me at that time. ”
Yang Sitong replied: "Okay, I'll come back next year to help you after graduation." By the way, there is one more thing I want to talk to you about, your "Hunger Games" movie has been filmed, and the director of this movie is also the Hollywood director Gary Rose, with Jennifer Lawrence and George Hutcherson in the actors, and it is expected that this movie will be released at the end of the year. ”
"Also, Lionsgate is very interested in your second installment, The Hunger Games: Beacons. It is expected that the second part will start filming after the release of "The Hunger Games 1", and you can check it out when you have time. ”
Yang Chuan nodded and said, "Okay." I'll check it out when I have time. ”
Although I have seen it once in my previous life, there is nothing to watch it again.
"Ogawa, do you have any new books lately?" Yang Sitong asked.
"Yes!" Yang Chuan nodded and said: "I am currently thinking of a Western fantasy novel, I have already thought of the title of the book will be called "The Lord of the Rings", and when I finish writing, I will send you the manuscript directly, and you can just give it to Davis directly at that time." ”
"Great!" Yang Sitong was very excited: "I can't read other novels since I read the novel you wrote, by the way, it's almost Christmas, I wish you a Merry Christmas in advance!" ”
Forehead? Christmas!
Yang Chuan looked at the night outside the window, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that it was almost Christmas, although Huaxia was only Christmas, but Christmas at least represented the past of a year, and he didn't expect that it had been almost a year since he was reborn.
"Okay, don't bother you, bye!"
After saying this, Yang Sitong went offline.
Seeing that Yang Sitong was offline, Yang Chuan couldn't help but sigh.
Yang Chuan clicked on Kugou Music and played a song "Ode to Joy", after all, this song is the most appropriate to listen to at Christmas.
Just after Yang Chuan listened to "Ode to Joy", he suddenly received a button message from the Singularity Editor.
"Ye Luo, your new book "Douluo Continent" Shengshi Game wants to buy your game adaptation rights."
As soon as Yang Chuan saw this news, he suddenly came to his senses, and he hurriedly asked: "Lieda, how much does Shengshi Game pay to buy?" ”
Lieshou replied: "Shengshi Group is preparing to adapt "Douluo Continent" into a browser game, because your "Douluo Continent" has been ranked first in the search list of 1000 degrees for several consecutive months, and has the support of hundreds of millions of fans. ”
"So Shengshi Group is ready to pay 5 million to buy the game adaptation rights of your "Douluo Continent", but this time Shengshi Group hopes that you can serve as the background builder of the game "Douluo Continent", after all, you are the author of the book who understands this better."
Hearing that Shengshi Group paid 5 million to buy the game adaptation rights of his "Douluo Continent", Yang Chuan was very excited, so he agreed without too much hesitation: "Okay, I am willing to serve as the builder of the game world background of "Douluo Continent". ”
When saying this, Yang Chuan couldn't help but think of a very classic sentence in "Douluo Continent".
"Obedience is immortal, adversity is mortal, immortal is only in an instant!" (To be continued......)
