Another World Under My Pen

Chapter 955: paving

For a former literary scumbag, adapting the Harry Potter series is simply an impossible task!

The difficulty here is not magic.

In fact, at the very beginning, Sun Peng just wanted to replace something. For example, the magic in Harry Potter was simply replaced with Taoism, and Hikari 2000 was portrayed as a flying sword, but in the end he gave up after thinking about it. Because he found that such words are not only difficult for Europeans and Americans to accept, I am afraid that even the Chinese people themselves may not be able to agree-after all, the two are not the same thing at all.

So after thinking about it again and again, Sun Peng invited a real expert to go out.

The history professor of Beijing Normal University has also carefully studied Chinese traditional Taoism and witchcraft, and spent time to recreate a whole set of witchcraft system for Sun Peng! Maybe this system is not perfect, but Sun Peng's requirements are not so high, just replace the magic, magic creatures and magic props in Harry Potter.

Facts have proved that this prudent approach is very effective.

With the help of experts, coupled with Sun Peng's way of thinking as a medical student, whether "Han Bo Yu Lingshi" or "Han Bo and the Secret Chamber", he found no obvious loopholes. After the former was released on the shelves, criticism in this regard seems to be rarely seen.

but……

Sun Peng's headache was the text.

Although he wrote big tomes like Tianlong and Luding, Sun Peng knew exactly how the thing came from. Even if Sun Peng in this world has good writing skills under the influence of his uncle, it is still far from enough to write a novel well-at least Sun Peng, after incorporating his memory, cannot write the real Great book!

The only thing he can do is to do his best to do his best.

So after the final revision of "Han Bo and the Chamber of Secrets", even though he was still unsatisfied from the left and right, Sun Peng knew that this was the limit of his ability, at least the limit of his ability now! Regrettably, he also secretly made the decision to increase reading and codeword time in the future. After all, everyone thought that Sun Peng was making a full-scale attack in the fields of film and music, but only he knew that words were everything. Foundation!

He is already planning a schedule for the release of music, but how many movies can he make in a lifetime?

Only words are eternal.

So after only secretly sighing, Sun Peng handed the manuscript of "Han Bo and the Chamber of Secrets" to the second sister, and then said: "Sister, two things, one is to arrange the book to be printed as soon as possible, and the other is to help I let out the news and said that I am ready to make the right to adapt "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe"!"

"Huh? You want to sell the right to edit?"

After listening to his brother's words, the agent's expression was taken aback.

It’s no wonder she feels strange, because Sun Peng has always valued the adaptation rights of his works. For example, picture books that sell well in the West. I don’t know how many big Hollywood companies are rushing to it, or just If you want to adapt it into an animation, you either want to buy it as a reserve, but the price is not low anyway.

But without exception, Sun Peng refused.

So Sun Ya gradually gave up the plan to sell the adaptation rights, but any company inquired was an answer: Teacher Lao Bai did not consider selling the adaptation rights for the time being! It's just that this time Sun Peng not only actively said to sell, but also "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe"...

"Yes, sell the adaptation rights!"

Taking a deep breath, Sun Peng nodded and said: "The price can be lowered appropriately, don't scare people away... But "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" is only sold to the five major Hollywood studios. And they require them to be released within three years... It is best to let the movie enter the theater within two and a half years, and the production cost should not be less than 100 million US dollars!"

"Uh……"

After listening to Sun Peng's words, the agent's eyelids couldn't help but jump wildly!

The production cost of 100 million US dollars is not too exaggerated. After all, Sun Ya has also seen the original picture book, and knows that he wants to make an effect, not to mention 100 million US dollars, even 150 million or 200 million can be spent. . But the condition that it must be released within three years is a bit harsh.

A big production, from the beginning of preparation to the release is not so simple.

What's more, Sun Peng just wants to sell the right of adaptation now, and he only starts with a production fee of at least 100 million US dollars. Even if the top five in Hollywood are rich and not short of money, I am afraid that negotiations alone will take a long time, right?

But before the frowning Sun Ya could speak, Sun Peng waved his hand and smiled: "Sister, I know this is difficult, so this time I will adapt the script myself, and even provide them with detailed sub-screen scripts! And if they If I am worried about the risks, I will invest enough funds to share..."

"Oh! I've got it!"

Suddenly opening his eyes, Sun Ya's heart became more and more strange.

Lao Bai’s investment in his own films is of course nothing new. The two animations and "Kill Bill" and "Longmen Inn" had Sun Peng's investment, and even the film with the Forbidden City originally had a part. But Sun Ya knew that it was a helpless move when there was no alternative.

If the film company's investment is sufficient, Sun Peng is not very interested.

But this time not only can make up for other people’s funds and reduce risks, Sun Peng is even willing to help adapt the script, and spend effort to draw the shots, which makes Sun Ya extraordinarily strange-can it be said that this "Lion, What's so special about the copyright of "The Witch and the Wardrobe"?

"Ahem, there is one more thing."

While Sun Ya was still contemplating her eyebrows, Sun Peng suddenly continued: "Sister, I am planning to shoot the copyright of "Han Bo and Lingshi" recently! But this time I hope it will be a domestic film company. After taking over, in addition to "Han Bo and Lingshi", they will also get priority in the follow-up of this series."

"Oh, what other conditions?"

With his mind still on "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe", Sun Ya asked casually.

"The investment must not be less than one billion, and it must be released within three years!"

"Ok...what?!"

Sun Peng’s voice was quite an understatement. It seemed to be as calm as discussing what to eat for lunch with his sister, but when Sun Ya suddenly recovered, she suddenly jumped from the sofa: "Xiao Peng, Are you kidding me? That’s all about "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe". Its sales are very good, and it is well-known in Europe and America. The key is to find a Hollywood film company to cooperate! But this "Han Bo and Ling" "Stone"... Are you sure you want to invest one billion Chinese coins?"

There is no problem in releasing it within three years. Some of Sun Peng's books are that the company is willing to buy the copyright!

But one billion Chinese currency investment?

Just kidding!

That's not "Hurricane Rescue 2", nor "The Matrix 2", but a "Han Bo and Lingshi" whose sales are far worse than martial arts novels after it hits the shelves!

This kid...

Where is the confidence?

"Haha, of course it's not a joke, I'm serious!"

Seeing Sun Peng's definite expression, Sun Ya was speechless... But after a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, Sun Ya's expression changed drastically, pointing to her younger brother and said in shock: "No, no! Xiaopeng , You want to sell the film adaptation rights of "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" and "Han Bo and the Spirit Stone" at the same time. No, it will be the former to pave the way for the latter? This is too exaggerated. Got it..."
