On this day, Lin Zixuan came to the Ministry of Culture of China.

Mu Zhiyuan mentioned to him in advance that it was about the publication of "Xiaoxue's Big Adventure" abroad. It is a good thing that the cultural department needs to understand the situation.

Since "The Adventure of Little Snow" was published in other countries in February, although its sales are not as good as those of the UK, it is not bad. In the United States, France and Italy, they have both topped the best-selling list.

The background of this story is in the UK and is naturally more popular with British readers.

Lin Zixuan has a certain reputation in Europe, and readers in France and Italy recognize his works.

The United States and the United Kingdom belong to the same English-speaking countries. American publishers are good at publicity. "Little Snow's Big Adventure" even topped the fifth place in the New York Times bestseller rankings.

In other words, this series of novels has the potential to sell best in the world.

The person responsible for receiving Lin Zixuan is a deputy director in charge of publishing. Mu Zhiyuan does not need to come forward in this situation, but bureau-level cadres are enough.

The deputy director talked with Lin Zixuan for half an hour.

Lin Zixuan made preparations in advance, talked about the subsequent writing plan in detail, and preparing to cooperate with Hollywood film companies to make movies.

I have contacted several film companies and are under negotiation.

This interview was just a formality, recording and filing, and the cultural department conducted in-depth investigations, holding detailed data, including the sales of novels in various countries.

After analysis, they decided to meet Lin Zixuan.

Government departments pay attention to procedures in their work. This meeting is only the first step. Lin Zixuan expressed his willingness to cooperate before he could carry out the next step.

This approach may be inefficient, but it is relatively safe.

Lin Zixuan is definitely willing to cooperate. A country has come forward and is equivalent to opening a plug-in. In the future, "Xiaoxue's Big Adventure" will be made into a movie and will be released in China.

There are also construction of related amusement parks to create a complete set of industrial chains.

What he wants to do is to conduct cultural exchanges on behalf of China and other countries, which has greater symbolic significance.

The deputy director finally talked about the fact that China has its own traditional culture and does not necessarily have to use the Western background. The East also has moving myths.

He encouraged Lin Zixuan to create fairy tales with oriental backgrounds on this basis.

This involves the issue of cultural output.

"Xiaoxue's Big Adventure" is good, but it uses a magic background. There is too little traditional culture in China. Although it is conducive to the spread of the Western world, there are always some regrets.

How to export Chinese culture to countries around the world and enhance China's influence is a difficult problem.

Lin Zixuan agreed.

After this series ends, the next series will be Xiaoxue's big adventure in the East, a mythical version.

The story will show the Dragon Palace, the Underworld and the Gods in the Heaven.

He plans to write Xiaoxue's adventure story in the form of fairy tales.

Once the movie "Xiaoxue's Big Adventure" becomes popular all over the world, the character Xiaoxue will become a very influential brand, and the subsequent stories will also attract the attention of readers from all over the world.

Traditional Eastern culture entered the Western world in this way and was accepted by more people.

Lin Zixuan slightly revealed this writing plan and was affirmed by the deputy director.

Since you want to gain national support, you must show sincerity.

Besides, this was originally in Lin Zixuan's plan, but it just took time to think carefully.

After leaving the Ministry of Culture, Lin Zixuan temporarily puts this matter down. He is busy with the publicity work of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

The deputy director reported the conversation results to the superiors with the interview record and was quite satisfied with Lin Zixuan's performance.

Relevant personnel from the cultural and diplomatic departments held several meetings and made the final decision.

If the state's administrative agencies are compared to gears, then after the decision is made, these gears will start to operate slowly.

Although it is slow, it will not stop.

The diplomatic department is responsible for communicating with the British royal family, which takes a long time.

The cultural department will recommend "Xiaoxue's Big Adventure" as an extracurricular reading material for primary and secondary school students.

The most efficient one is the industrial and commercial department. They conducted a major inspection of the pirated books of "Xiaoxue's Big Adventure" in the capital and seized more than 100,000 pirated books.

Once the government departments become serious, there is nothing that cannot be done.

Pirates from all over the country have received internal news and be careful when pirated "Little Snow's Big Adventure" is pirated in the future.

Lin Zixuan was happy to see this. He knew that this approach could only treat the symptoms, not the root cause, but as long as it had a beginning, it would get better and better in the future.

It would be great if "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" could also receive this treatment.

It is difficult for domestic movies to be free of pirated. It is not that the pirated merchants are so powerful, but that the supervision is not strict, or that it is collusion between internal and external forces.

If a movie wants to be released nationwide, it is necessary to send copies of the movie to cinemas everywhere.

Huaying Group is responsible for making movie copies and sending people to theaters.

The number of copies is determined by the number of films in theaters. For example, Lin Xiaoling's "Going Home" only has two copies in Beijing, and "The Funeral of Big Names" has thirty copies in Beijing.

When the copy enters the cinema, there are regulatory loopholes.

Huaying Group cannot send people to focus on copying. There are hundreds of cinemas across the country, and each cinema is arranged with one person, so the labor cost is too high.

Good Dream Company also does not have the ability to do this.

Pirates often collude with cinemas, get copies at low prices, and make them into pirated CDs and sell them to the public.

For blockbusters like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", a copy costs at least 100,000 yuan, and an ordinary movie costs only 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. In order to seek personal gain, the cinema colluded with pirated merchants.

Of course, cinemas in big cities rarely do this. They have strict management and good income, so there is no need to take risks.

Cinemas in second- and third-tier cities are most likely to have problems, and pirated merchants are staring at those cinemas.

Besides, cinemas in big cities do not allow viewers to bring cameras into the venue, and cinemas in second- and third-tier cities will not care about these things, and are a breeding ground for piracy.

In order to prevent piracy, the film company will adopt the first round of screenings.

The first round of screenings will only be held in big cities, usually for five to seven days. The film company will send a special person to escort the copy, and stare at the trend of the copy in the cinema.

Pirates rarely appear during this period. In the second round of screenings, the scale of theaters expanded and piracy appeared.

If Huaying Group really wants to check, it will definitely be able to find out, but when it comes to the chain of interests, no one is willing to touch it, so piracy has become a normal state.

To completely prevent piracy, you have to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to track each copy, conduct strict inspections at the entrance of the cinema, and audiences are not allowed to carry any camera equipment.

Lin Zixuan is planning to try this measure during the release of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and ensure that there are no pirated CDs on the market within ten days.
