Chapter 335

PS: please support, please support the genuine version. Thank you on your knees. Thank you.

Tracy can't miss the film and television adaptation right of best-selling books such as the Da Vinci Code. When the book came out, Tracy asked George to buy the copyright.

In the competition of several companies, George finally won the film and television adaptation right of the Da Vinci Code at a high price of $4.5 million.

As for the script, it was adapted by Tracy and the original author Dan Brown. They met once, but most of them contacted online.

Dan Brown graduated from Amherst university with a double degree in Spanish and English. He is very talented in music. He made two albums in the 1990s.

After that, by chance, he studied writing with novelist Alan lukek. In 1993, Dan Brown's music path was not smooth. He returned to his alma mater Philip Esther College as an English teacher and embarked on the road of writing.

In 1994, he completed his first novel angels and demons. In 1996, when Dan Brown was on vacation in Tahiti, he read Sydney Sherton's Doomsday pursuit and thought he could write better than each other, so he began to write digital castle.

"Digital Castle" was published in 1998. Under some marketing techniques, the results can only be said to be fair.

What really made Dan Brown famous was the Da Vinci Code. As soon as it was published last year, it appeared on the New York Times best seller list, and then rose to the top under the pressure of 50 shadows.

After the success of the Da Vinci Code, his first two novels also sold well. In January this year, angels and Demons and digital Castle also successively appeared on the best-selling list.

At present, the global sales of Da Vinci Code has exceeded 30 million copies, which is infinitely close to the single book achievement of 50 shadows. Tracy's "Fifty shadows" has sold more than 100 million copies worldwide, but there are three of his books. If you share them, the sales of each book will be about 30 million to 40 million copies.

Of course, this is not the final result. Fifty shadows still has a lot of potential to tap. However, Tracy knows that no matter how well his books are sold, the results of a single book will be surpassed by the other party sooner or later.

There is no other reason. The Da Vinci Code is a real hammer. In a few years, its sales will exceed 100 million, and then it will remain at the top of the list.

Of course, this is without counting the Bible, Chairman Mao's quotations, Xinhua Dictionary and other books. Until these were written, the Da Vinci code could only be a brother.

"Casting and preparation. I hope you can pull up the crew in a month or two."

"OK, boss, I'll focus on this project," Longman Walker said.

Tracy nodded at him, turned to George and said, "George, talk about the adaptation copyright of angels and Demons and digital castle as soon as possible. Although we don't need to start these two projects for the time being, we can appreciate it in our hands."

Tracy doesn't know the box office of the Da Vinci Code, but in his impression, the box office of the film is very strong. With the great sale of the Da Vinci Code, other works of Dan Brown are bound to rise. Now buy the adaptation rights of his other novels, even if they are not made into films, and sell them later, you can make a profit.

"I've been in touch with him, but he doesn't seem very satisfied with our offer," George replied.

"If you are not satisfied, increase the price." Tracy frowned slightly and said, "his other two books are not as good as the Da Vinci Code. This must be the focus of the negotiation. You can control the rest by yourself."

"OK, boss."

"Well... By the way, how's the lovely bones going?" Tracy asked.

"The cooperation has been settled, but director Peter Jackson means to start shooting at the end of the year, so the progress is very slow," George replied.

"Well, that's no problem, according to their meaning. It's mainly to have a good relationship with Jackson. You try to get in touch with him as much as possible. I told you my purpose. I fell in love with the Hobbit in his hand. This is the top priority. You can distinguish the primary and secondary, and mainly explore his style of speaking first to see what his requirements for cooperation are. If it's not too much, we can meet him as much as possible." Tracy said his main purpose and said: "we can give him the maximum authority for the project of lovely bones. He can do whatever he wants. By the way, I can recommend him a little actor. You can tell him that I'll give you the actor's information in two days."

Lovely bones tells the story of a 14-year-old girl after she was killed. The main character in it is Susie.

The age of the heroine is about 13 or 4 years old. Tracy can't help thinking of Emma. This little girl is 13 years old this year, just right for this role.

After explaining "Lovely Bones", Tracy told George about the project of "devil wearing prada".

This is the project he prepared for Anne Hathaway, and temporarily decided to complete it by himself.

Annie is about to return to Los Angeles. Tracy has arranged for her to work as an internship assistant for fashion magazines to let her experience the role life first.

The project will take two or three months to prepare. In addition to Anne Hathaway, there is an important female role that needs to invite Meryl Streep to play.

Tracy has seen this film in his previous life. Aunt Mei's wonderful performance in it is unforgettable. He really can't find an actor who can replace Aunt Mei.

"The devil in Prada, you should focus on it, and then the bridesmaid. Like the drunken sleep, you are in full charge of it. I just asked. I believe you have experience." Tracy said to George, stood up, moved his sour arm and said: "That's all for today. You go to prepare first and report to me if you have any special circumstances. I won't come here in the near future."

"OK, boss."

George and Longman Walker stood up together. Tracy asked Renault to prepare the car, explained to them and left the company.

After getting on the bus, Tracy asked Renault to Beverly Hills. He took out the phone and dialed Monica.

When the phone was connected, Monica's tired voice came from the opposite side.

"Honey, what's up?"

"I'm going to your place. Are you at home now?"

"I'm still on the crew. I still have a few scenes to shoot. I may have to go back later."

"Well, it's all right. I'll go there first and wait for you to come back."

"It's just that Sophie is at home. She's in a bad mood. Please help me comfort her."

"Oh... This... I'll come? Well, I'll try." Tracy said with a curl of her mouth. How can I comfort her? Can I just show her all the photos?
