Chapter 171 "Harry Potter" Released in the United States

After dealing with some matters in the company, Chen Dong drove back from the company to the villa.

"Mr. Chen, you are back." Aunt Wu said to Chen Dong.

"Well, where are they? Are they back?" Chen Dong asked Aunt Wu.

"not yet."

"Then go get busy." Chen Dong said.

After Chen Dong went to take a shower, he turned on the computer and browsed some information.

Enter "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" + box office on the Baidu/Du bar.

I checked the box office of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons". As of 12 o'clock yesterday morning, it had exceeded 8 million, reaching 8.21 million, setting a new record again.

It has been released for more than half a month, and the attendance rate can still maintain 75%~80%, and there is still a lot of box office potential to be tapped.

According to this popularity, there is no doubt that "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" has a box office of over 10 billion.

It is very close to the highest box office record in mainland film history of 12.25 billion. Whether "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" can break the highest box office record in mainland film history, both filmmakers and media reporters are very optimistic about it.

After browsing the information about "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

Chen Dong checked the information about "Harry Potter" on Baidu.

"Harry Potter" has created a wave of fans in the UK, and sales are booming. A total of 87.4 million copies of "Harry Potter" have been sold, and the sales potential has been almost exhausted.

Next, the Harbin storm swept across the United States across the ocean from the United Kingdom.

American and British cultures are similar.

"Harry Potter" is an original fantasy novel, which describes a magical world of magic, which is loved and fascinated by British readers in the UK.

It is also fascinated by American readers in the United States. They really love "Harry Potter".

The magical Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the book, the interesting Quidditch game, a broomstick that can fly in the sky like a vehicle, and a magic wand that can cast all kinds of magical magic, wash and cook for everyone The house elf, the ghost talking about how he died, the portrait of the gatekeeper, the magic apple... everything is so interesting!It's so fascinating.

In the United States, once it was released, it quickly rushed into the top ten of the annual bestseller list in the United States.

Instantly aroused heated discussions in the American media.

You must know that the book publishing industry in the United States is very prosperous, the social status of writers is also very high, and the remuneration is also very generous. The middle class, and many famous novels have been adapted into movies, such as Twilight, Lord of the Rings, The Chronicles of Narnia, Alice in Wonderland... under such a hotbed, a lot of people have been born. Good writers and good novels, at the same time, also cultivate a large number of readers.

It can be said that it is very, very remarkable that "Harry Potter", a "new work" from the UK, can enter the annual bestseller list in the United States in just a few weeks.

It would not be surprising if "Harry Potter" was written by a British writer, because American culture and British culture are of the same origin, and most Americans are descendants of the British.

However, seeing that the author of "Harry Potter" is called dong.chen, it is obvious that the author is a Chinese. A Chinese who has been educated in traditional oriental culture can write a book that is authentic and conforms to the western style. The fantasy novels read by readers, this must have shocked many American readers.

Many American media made such remarks.

"In another corner of the world, there is a magical country. In this country, there is a group of wizards with incredible power. Among this group of wizards, there is a boy wearing a pair of wide-rimmed glasses, Harry. .Potter..., a book "Harry Potter" became popular throughout the United States in the second half of this year. What is incredible is that this magical novel was created by a Chinese." Chicago Daily.Title: A Chinese created a miracle.

"The magical Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft and Wizardry, the interesting Quidditch game, the broomstick that can fly in the sky like a vehicle, a magic wand that can cast all kinds of magical spells,... everything is so Interesting, I think, at this time, there must be countless people who are fascinated by the magical kingdom described by the author dong.

"After the UK, "Harry Potter" set off a storm of Harry Potter fans in the United States."

"Hollywood studios have plans to make "Harry Potter" into a movie."

"The sales of peripheral products of "Harry Potter" have caused fans of Harry Potter to frantically snap up."

"According to the statistics of a professional data company, with the current level of popularity of "Harry Potter", as long as this popularity continues, the seven novels of "Harry Potter" can form a more than tens of billions of dollars. The industrial chain, and various copyrights are expected to bring more than hundreds of millions of dollars in income to the author of the novel, dong.chen.”

……

"Mr. Chen, dinner is ready." Aunt Wu came to Chen Dong's bedroom, knocked on the door, and said.

"Okay, I'll come down right away." Chen Dong replied.

I looked at the time displayed in the lower right corner of the computer, and before I knew it, it was past 5 o'clock.

Turn off the computer, walk out of the bedroom, and come to the dining room.

A sumptuous meal was prepared on the dining table, all of which were local dishes, including beef, chicken, shallots with tofu, and rabbit meat.

"cousin."

"Chen Dong."

The three of them said hello to Chen Dong.

"Qingzhu, how are you doing in the crew?" Chen Dong sat down and asked Zhao Qingzhu.

After the performance of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", because Zhao Qingzhu played a supporting role and showed his face a few times, he performed very well, so Zhao Qingzhu became a little famous in the film and television circle.

Coupled with the fact that the director might be flattering Chen Dong, Zhao Qingzhu accepted a play.

Although it was a low-budget film with an investment of less than 300 million, Zhao Qingzhu played a very important supporting role in it, second only to the heroine's second supporting role.

Chen Dong has read the script. It is a literary film. The screenwriter is very talented. The characters in the play are very brilliant, especially the second supporting actress played by Zhao Qingzhu. Big improvement.

Zhao Qingzhu said, "It's okay, but because I am a newcomer and lack acting skills, I often shoot several scenes in a row. The director takes good care of me. Sister Wang, the female leader in the play, taught me a lot, and I also Very hard.”
