Chapter four hundred and seventy-ninth, not bad rent
Just kidding, now is the time to bring Harry Potter to the screen?
Well, Alice knew that this novel had become a phenomenal work. Unlike the Philosopher's Stone of Rowling back then, her book was directly as thick as the Deathly Hallows. It is said that Harry Potter is slow to heat up, but in fact, Rowling's first two or three books were too thin. As long as the amount of information was raised, of course, it would be a hot-selling work every minute.
So on weekdays, of course, she also has a deep understanding of the popularity of the book "self". Just like during the period when school started in March this year, quite a lot of boys couldn't help but revolve around them. Think about it, Eaton's enrollment age is from twelve to eighteen, and his school uniform happens to be a slim tuxedo full of British style. The students' sense of substitution in reading books is simply undesirable. How can they not treat Alice as an idol?
Of course, Hogwarts' existence is very easy to explain. Is the writer himself an Eaton student? Art originated from life and is higher than life. A seven-year magic apprenticeship career and a high-end school uniform in black robe, an antique Scottish castle and a professor full of British English. Isn't this an upgraded version of Eaton students?
Of course, everyone knows that Harry Potter was first published by American Bantam, but the difficulty of using American words to British is of course much simpler than translating the full text into Japanese, Portuguese, etc., let alone the cultural atmosphere. Therefore, just half a year is enough to make this Alice version of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone reach a new level of mentioning film and television.
However, this can only be an idea in a short period of time.
Just kidding, how can you shoot Harry Potter with a high-end special effects now?
It’s not that King Kong in the 1930s was remake in the millennium. DreamWorks will have enough special effects after waiting for a decade. Moreover, this is a large series of at least seven plots. How can there be repeated trouble? In the big Hollywood, even if you want to rehearse the rice, it will have to have a decades cycle, right?
Besides, actors are also a big problem.
Alice's version of Harry Potter series, Hermione described it according to the original text of the actor...
"If we really want to shoot, we need to select a large number of special actors, and we have to choose from children around eleven years old. Then we have to consider the shooting progress of your filming and the growth of your adolescence..."
Alice's denial, but she couldn't stop her senior sister Phil from continuing to fantasize. Thinking about it carefully, this big series can't be started in a hurry, and there are too many things to consider!
"And there is still a question of length." Alice personally pointed out a sharp problem: "Every book I wrote in half a million words, and you know the amount of information. A two-hour movie is not enough to explain much content. So if you really start shooting, each book will have to be filled with upper and lower parts."
This was a great situation. Phil grinded his teeth. She was obviously not related to anything, but she became too angry: "I think you are more reliable in making TV series. If you are pure movies, just movies, then..."
After thinking about it for a moment, Alice also felt that she was big.
There is no way, she really expanded the amount of information in the book.
Actually, it’s really easy to write. After all, Is it someone who has returned from the 21st century? Who doesn’t know the concept of fan novels? Some of the hp romance fans who went to the sea of a certain river. Some European and American fans also create their own works. Alice just borrows some reference points to expand into the original text, which is not enough to increase the length of the article many times?
So now, the trouble is really big.
After all, it is different from the romantic love story of a certain Jiang who went to the sea. Alice cannot really use Korean dramas to make the love storyline come out. Now, a magic stone has been expanded to the level of the Deathly Hallows. Even if only one-fifth of it is used to describe the world view in detail... it must mean that the style of the next few books will be far from Rowling.
It is easy to make up 500,000 words for the Secret Room and the Prisoners, but when it comes to the Fourth and Seventh Parts... it will definitely double to one million, and the "original" part can hardly be copied directly, and it will have to be properly modified by Alice.
Of course, novel creation itself is not difficult, the key issue is...
“…It’s film and television.”
After drinking the afternoon tea, Alice refused to have some work, so she separated from Senior Sister Phil. Walking alone among the skyscrapers in the financial district of London, she deeply understood what it means to be sore.
Because, she is very sure that she will make Harry Potter films and television, and isn't she crazy about making movies with such a masterpiece that has influenced the growth of a generation?
Moreover, children's literature has the best advantage, which is that any generation of teenagers can watch. Since the main scenes in the book are born in Hogwarts school, any generation of boys and girls can find themselves in this series. After her peers of Alice's generation also have children, they will be able to catch up with the seven years of film and television production!
So, how can Harry Potter be changed to make films and television?
"When I signed a long contract directly, I would definitely have this qualification when I waited around 2 ooo years." Although Roger Lawrence, the controlling shareholder, Alice undoubtedly has a heavy voice in the company's operations. With a series of popular movies, coupled with comprehensive operations such as TV networks, DreamWorks is of course qualified to set contracts with a large number of actors.
"Two movies are filmed in the upper and lower parts a year, and even American drama plans can be launched. One is to explain the plot of 50 to 1 million words in four hours, and the other is to explain the story clearly in a set of about 22 episodes. Money is not a problem, but it is difficult to give a group of school-age young actors time, especially the Children's Rights Association..."
"Increasing the proportion of CG technology in the film, just like the fantasy drift of Pi's full-time studio? It is impossible to replace all sets, but it is OK to simplify the work of actors to the greatest extent. If I personally take on the special effects, even if the expressions and lines are not up to standard, they can be corrected..."
Thinking about it, it is not a problem. Alice can do both video editing and audio editing software that can be used to make up for it. If it is just a flaw with a slight inadequate expression, she can indeed make up for it in the later stages, but that is a big hidden danger to the actor's acting skills, and it will make everyone named a vase.
"Ah, don't worry, what do you want to do so far?"
Alice sat down and took a nap at the edge of the sidewalk. It was still along the Thames River. Opposite was the six tall buildings in Anda Square where construction was over.
Although it is a chain real estate in the plan, Alice will certainly not foolishly allow the same type of office building to spread all over the world. This is two different characteristics from Walmart. Which city can become the office building group of the sub-landmark buildings in the area. How can it not be adapted to local conditions?
The height does not need to be exaggerated.
Because it was a concept that was directly plagiarized, Alice certainly knew how a certain Wang Gong planned it. The office buildings in first-tier cities are at least 200 meters high-rise buildings, second-tier cities are at least 120 meters high-rise buildings, and third-tier cities are at least 80 meters high-rise buildings. Such a general construction plan.
But there is one of the most obvious differences between Alice and a certain Wang Dong. The other party is that he relies specifically on real estate to make a living. The more rent the better. Alice builds buildings everywhere just to increase the influence of the entire "consortium".
Yes, it's just for influence. Although after the real development, even if it doesn't go public, it can bring Alice a 100 billion US dollars in corporate property, but to be honest, Shenzhen Penguin only has a market value of 200 to 300 billion US dollars in just one building, wouldn't it be good?
What you want is not the rent, but what you want is some companies stationed.
Although the first square is located in London, an international financial metropolis, a height of 150 meters is enough, not to mention that there are still six buildings. Now it is no longer the era of skyscrapers, especially European cities have always been a non-skyscraper. Improving the quality of tenants is Alice's current pursuit.
"Microsoft's European headquarters and Cisco's European headquarters, these two companies occupy Building A and Building respectively."
At this time, sitting by the river and looking at her own industry that was about to be fully completed, Alice had already started to prepare a small meal for her colleagues.
"After the scale officially comes, and the Anda himself has to occupy a building, and then the protective umbrella may also get a share of the pie? Ah...that's the four buildings. I'm only six buildings now. It's not good not to give other companies some way to survive, right?"
Alice thought about it for a while and then gave up this plan. After all, the Roswell Building is also in the financial district, so the ground is not wronged. After all, the protective umbrella has an institute in Exeter early. The more than 1,000 square meters on the top floor of the Roswell Building are enough to cope with three or two years.
The city planners in London have fully considered the factors of the thousand-year history. The buildings in the skyscraper area are bright and beautiful, with a strong sense of fashion, which is in sharp contrast with those of Victoria and even the older era architectural areas. Therefore, the six buildings in Anda are also shining with sunlight, and the curved glass curtain walls reflect light enchantingly. The buildings are like noble ladies, standing upright in the center of this world-famous international financial city.
"That's right..." Alice took out her sunglasses from her bag and put them on, looking across the river: "Senior Sister Phil reminded me that it should be displayed on the TV station. Since digital video technology has been released, if I don't add the popularization of set-top boxes, wouldn't I be ashamed of the founder of Cisco?"
Well, I found a new job for myself, why am I so busy?
It happened that at this moment, the big brother in the bag suddenly rang. Alice took it out and saw that it was actually my father's hang.
What's going on?
Chapter completed!
