Chapter 311: The Three-Body Problem 3

Because of this, Jiang Heng never asked for updates on the subsequent content of "The Three-Body Problem".

If I let Liu Cixin write slowly, I’m afraid that he might get distracted and cause the plot of the third part to be too different from the previous one.

Thinking of this, Jiang Heng actually became a little worried.

Said to the assistant, "Book him a plane ticket and have him take him directly here!"

"Ok!"

In Yangquan, Liu Ci looked at the mobile phone on the table anxiously, having never felt so worried before.

The reason, of course, is related to his situation.

The power station where he had worked for many years was about to be shut down.

Although, this place is like a "besieged city", the feeling of oppression and restraint has made him want to escape many times.

But after all, I have worked here for more than 20 years, and I still feel very reluctant to leave here suddenly.

In addition, I feel a little confused.

After leaving this time, he plans to develop in Beijing and adapt his science fiction works into film and television.

He basically won't write any more novels. He feels that the novel "The Three-Body Problem" has exhausted all his inspiration and imagination, and he is afraid that he will not be able to write a work that can match "The Three-Body Problem" in the future.

Therefore, after arriving in Beijing, the most likely thing to be achieved is to get a job as a screenwriter when the work is adapted. Whether this job will be successful or not depends on how satisfied Jiang Heng is with the sequel. Liu Cixin is also feeling nervous!
"Hello, can you help me book a flight to Hengdian? OK, OK, no problem, no problem, thank you very much!"

Liu Cixin thanked him profusely, and after hanging up, he said to his wife, "They told me to go to Hengdian and hand the manuscript to Director Jiang in person!"

The wife said happily, "Great, after he has read it, can he immediately transfer the copyright fee to me?"

Liu Cixin said: "According to the previous practice, this is how it is!"

"That means we'll have another million in cash soon!" The wife walked back and forth excitedly.

"That's right!"

Liu Cixin was able to keep her composure and had a warm smile.

At the same time, I also felt a sense of pride. After the third part was submitted and the payment was received, the three million yuan in royalties for the book "The Three-Body Problem" was fully received.

In addition, the movie "The Three-Body Problem" was a big hit, and Director Jiang transferred a red envelope of one million yuan, which means the income is four million yuan.

Adding the earnings from novel publishing, my income over the past two years has been pretty good, and I have reason to be proud of it.

His wife suddenly asked, "There are a lot of beautiful actresses in Hengdian, right?"

"Probably, quite a few, right?"

"When you go, don't mess around!"

Liu Cixin blushed when she heard this, "What are you talking about? How could I, you don't even know me?"

"It's hard to say. Men become bad when they have money. How about you tell them that we are going together?"

"Isn't this bad?"

"Look, I told you you had..."

"Okay, okay, let's go together, let's go together, just think of it as going on a trip!"

Liu Cixin called Jiang Heng's assistant again and told him that she wanted to bring her family members with her.

They agreed very readily without asking Jiang Heng for permission. This was something the Lord could do.

The next day, Liu Cixin and his wife first went from Yangquan to Shijiazhuang, and then took a plane to Yiwu.

After getting off the plane, a driver from the "A Chinese Ghost Story" crew came to pick us up in a Toyota Alpha.

"This car is quite comfortable to sit in, Lao Liu, why don't we buy one too!"

Liu Cixin thought: "This car should be quite expensive, right?"

Assistant Jiang Heng smiled and said, "It's not expensive, only one million. It's the cheapest car that Director Jiang currently owns!"

"One million, Director Jiang is really rich!"

"Teacher Liu is so famous now, it's not easy for him to buy a car worth hundreds of thousands!" Liu Cixin waved her hands and said, "It's too extravagant, I can't bear it!"

The female assistant smiled and said, "You see, you said you couldn't bear to part with it, not that you couldn't afford it. Teacher Liu is still very capable!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Cixin straightened his chest slightly, thinking that this girl is worthy of being Jiang Heng's assistant, she is just good at talking, and I am indeed very capable!

Just like that, with alternating emotions of pride and nervousness, Liu Cixin took a car to the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

Jiang Heng came to meet him when he was free. His costume was a bit tattered and there was black dust on his face.

"Director Jiang, what are you doing?"

Jiang Heng laughed, "This fight scene was a bit tragic. Sit down. This is my sister-in-law, right?"

"Don't dare to take it, don't take it!"

Jiang Heng said, "I'm very busy right now. So, you guys can just hang out nearby for a few days. You don't have to worry about any expenses. The finance department will transfer the copyright fee to you within today or tomorrow!"

Liu Cixin rubbed his hands and smiled innocently, "Don't worry, don't worry, we won't walk around randomly, let's just walk around the film and television city!"

Seeing that the crew was too busy, Liu Cixin and his wife took their leave immediately. As a result, at around four o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, the one million yuan in film and television adaptation rights fee was received.

The couple was so delighted that they found a specialty restaurant and had a big meal.

Jiang Heng took the time to look at the electronic version of the third part written by Liu Cixin. Overall, it was not bad and not much different from the previous life's version.

We can now start polishing the scripts for the second and third sequels of "The Three-Body Problem".

I talked to Liu Cixin and asked him if he would like to join the screenwriter team, and naturally Liu readily agreed.

Jiang Heng asked his wife about the closure of the power station. Liu Cixin said that it would be closed either by the end of this year or early next year, and it was certain.

Jiang Heng said: "Then let's buy a house in Beijing first!"

"Beijing, buying a house?"

Jiang Heng nodded slightly. He would often give some useful suggestions to those around him. It was up to them whether to listen or not.

For example, Da Tiantian is more stubborn and sometimes insists on some inexplicable "creeds".

Liu Cixin was more pragmatic, but after just a few seconds she said, "Okay, then I'll buy a house in Beijing now!"

After leaving the crew, his wife complained: "Houses in Beijing are so expensive, how dare you buy one?"

Liu Ci thought to himself, "What do you know? This is called 'immortal guidance'. What Director Jiang saw, heard, and knew is not at the same level as us. He can say this, why don't we believe it!"

"It's true!"

However, after Liu Cixin flew to Beijing, he first went to the publishing house, which was also waiting for the manuscript of "The Three-Body Problem 3".

Afterwards, he wandered around the capital looking for a house.

Jiang Heng took a day off and rushed to Shanghai by car.

"Let the Bullets Fly" is finally going to be released. The original release date of this film was early August.

But even at that time, "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" was still crowded with viewers, with too many people watching it twice, three times, or even four times.

Seeing this, Jiang Wen and the investors dared not let the film be released as scheduled.

After repeated discussions, it was decided to change the film's release date to National Day.

And call Jiang Heng and tell him, "Look, you've pushed my movie to the National Day schedule, so you have to come and help promote it during the premiere!"

Jiang Heng smiled and agreed, and chose the Shanghai premiere.
At the event, when Jiang Hengyi showed up, the media reporters were all enthusiastic and delighted, and they kept clicking pictures with their cameras.

Although the host knew that Jiang Heng had returned, he still had an expression of great surprise.

Jiang Wen became even more excited, and walked up to Jiang Heng and hugged him, saying with a smile: "I'm so happy that you can come!"

Jiang Heng laughed and thought: Fortunately it’s not the case, you are not that important to me!

Zhou Runfa, who was standing by, also had a humble expression on his face. He stepped forward and shook hands with a smile, saying, "Hello, Director Jiang. Congratulations. You have won the global box office championship. You are really proud of us Chinese!"
