When Li Wan told the whole process, Yu Dongqing was very surprised.

was originally a story told to his daughter, why did it go to a foreign country, and there is a director who wants to adapt it into a movie?

And it's the famous "Silver Star Empire" director Christophe!

Could it be that Tongtong spread it to the Internet?

I'll have to ask her when I get back.

"Holly, I've told you everything, you should think about it, as far as I know, the price of the film adaptation rights purchased by Americans will not be low, especially a famous director like Christophe, of course, I also know that you are not short of money."

Yu Dongqing glared at him.

It's not a question of money or not.

Da Liu's.

Look at the original "Three-Body Problem" in that time and space has changed hands several times, online dramas, animations, movies, radio dramas, offline exhibitions and stage plays, etc., but the more popular ones are only TV series.

As for the movie, there is no future.

"Li Wan, I'll think about it." Yu Dongqing did not answer immediately.

"Okay, there's no rush anyway, come, drink tea." Li Wan said and raised his teacup.

It was already six o'clock in the afternoon when I got home from Minghui Teahouse, and it was just dinner time, and the first thing Yu Dongqing did was to call Yu Tongtong and ask her what was going on? How did it end up on the Internet for her classmates?

Yu Tongtong is an honest child, so he had to tell what happened.

Sure enough, it was her daughter who showed Xia Yunxing, this kid.

Yu Dongqing sighed in his heart.

But what can Yu Dongqing say at this time? And it's just one.

So, he had to criticize his daughter a few words, anyone can read it, it doesn't matter if you upload it to the Internet, the most important thing is to tell the truth to your father!

It's obviously Xia Yunxing, that kid wants to see it, why do you have to say that it's your classmate who wants to watch it?!

Yu Tongtong hurriedly apologized to her father on the phone, saying that she would never dare to do it again in the future.

"Alright, alright. It's just such a big deal, just say a few words. Mingmei immediately spoke for Yu Tongtong.

Ay.

You're too used to her, aren't you?

I don't know what else will be hidden in the future?

Yu Dongqing couldn't help but shake his head.

During the meal, Yu Dongqing talked about it again, of course, not about her daughter, but about the adaptation into a movie.

"Bright, what do you think of Christophe making this into a movie?"

"I think it's doable! Kristof is a famous American director, especially good at making science fiction films, and if you can give him a shot, you will definitely be able to shoot satisfactory results. ”

"I don't deny that." Yu Dongqing said: "But, Mingmei, have you thought about it, if you let the Americans make this movie, will the protagonist be Chinese?" Even if you take a step back and say that Kristof uses a Chinese actor as the leading role, will it shoot the kind of effect you want, I guess the adaptation will be unrecognizable. ”

"That's just as well. But you can talk to Christophe. Mingmei said.

Yu Dongqing nodded.

He also admires the Hollywood director very much.

He also wanted to know, if Christophe wanted to shoot, how, exactly?

But this matter can't be too urgent, Yu Dongqing called Li Wan after two more days: he was also very interested in the idea, but he wanted to talk to him before deciding.

Li Wan naturally told Yu Dongqing's original words truthfully, and the other party agreed.

It's half past six in the evening, it's already dark, the weather is not very good today, the cold wind is howling outside, and it's snowing heavily, but Li Wan braved the cold wind and drove to Yu Dongqing's house.

According to Christophe's agreement, I will have a video chat with him at seven o'clock tonight.

Since there is a fifteen-hour time difference between Yanjing and Los Angeles, it is exactly nine o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles now.

"Li Wan, have you eaten? Want to eat again? Mingmei was feeding her son and greeted her warmly.

"You're welcome, I've eaten it." Li Wan replied, "What about Holly?" ”

"In the study."

"Okay, you're busy, I'll go over and take a look." Li Wan turned around and walked out of the living room, anyway, they are familiar with each other, so you are welcome.

"Okay, when Lele finishes eating, I'll come over and have a look."

Yu Dongqing was leisurely drinking tea in the study, and when he saw Li Wan knocking on the door and coming in, he immediately stood up and greeted: "It's cold outside, right?" It's hard for you to make a trip, come, come to tea! , I won't invite you to drink Longjing today, please drink authentic Wuyi black tea, Tongmuguan's small black tea. ”

As he spoke, he took out a teacup and poured a cup for Li Wan.

Li Wan looked at it, and the soup was dark and golden; The aroma is lingering.

I tasted it, and it tasted really good.

"Don't you love Longjing alone? Why do you suddenly drink black tea? Li Wan felt strange.

"Mingmei said that drinking too much green tea hurts the stomach, and it is best to drink some black tea in winter to nourish the stomach." Yu Dongqing explained: "I have to get some authentic Da Hong Robe for her father every year, so I also got myself some Wuyi black tea to try this time." ”

"Hehe, what a filial son-in-law." Li Wan said with a smile.

The two chatted for a while, and then got down to business.

"Holly, what's your attitude towards this? I feel that Kristof really wants to buy the rights to your film and television adaptation. Li Wan asked.

"I'll admit it, but . Forget it, let's talk about it then. ”

The video chat started at half past six, and Mingmei also came in at this time and stood quietly next to it.

They used Skype to chat with the software, and soon the study was connected, and the video showed the face of an old man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.

"Hello, Mr. Christophe."

"Hello, Mr. Yu Dongqing, it's a pleasure to meet you, and my friend Mr. Li, oh there is a beautiful lady next to you, is it Miss Mingmei?"

It seems that Christophe still did his homework.

Mingmei greeted with a smile, both sides used English, although Li Wan was not very good at English, but Mingmei quietly translated on the side.

After a brief greeting between the two sides, they went straight to the point.

"Mr. Yu, the "Wandering Earth" you wrote is so wonderful! Escape with the earth, what a wild imagination! It can be said that I have seen the best Chinese sci-fi, there is no one. ”

In the face of Christopher's praise, Yu Dongqing smiled faintly: "Thank you, but we still have many very wonderful science fiction in China, and "The Wandering Earth" can only be said to be one of them." ”

"Really? Then I hope Mr. Yu can introduce me to a few more wonderful films. ”

"It will be later."

"Thank you." Christophe said something and changed his mind: "Mr. Yu, because I appreciate this one very much, I also want to adapt it into a movie, so that more people can see it As for the price of buying the copyright of film and television adaptation, you can rest assured, I will pay you according to the copyright purchase fee of our similar category in the United States to ensure that you are satisfied." ”

Mingmei quickly translated the words into Chinese and said to Li Wan, who immediately whispered to Yu Dongqing: "I have inquired, Hollywood is very eager for excellent science fiction, not long ago a popular American novella sold the film and television rights of 5 million US dollars to a Hollywood company, and your film can be worth at least 3 million US dollars!" ”

3 million US dollars, which is 21 million when converted into RMB!

Li Wan said, extremely envious in his heart.

Although he has also achieved financial freedom, now being busy at work is more of a hobby - he likes this job, not just for money.

But more than 20,000 words can be exchanged for 21 million, which is not something ordinary people can do.

However, Yu Dongqing's expression was calm when he heard this, and he said: "Thank you, what I want to know is, Mr. Christophe, how will you adapt this one?" ”
