China, Beijing.
He Zhixing was drinking tea in the living room, his face full of contentment.
Next to her, Tongtong was watching TV holding a furry toy that was taller than her.
What was playing on the TV was the animation of "Snow White".
I'm afraid Wang Mo didn't expect that in less than half a year, "Snow White" would be animated by the animation department of Yunhai Media and put on the screen.
This is mainly due to the fact that "Snow White" quickly became popular all over the world after its release. It was not only loved by children, but also by adults from all walks of life. Therefore, Yunhai Media made the immediate decision to produce it. animation.
Sure enough, this decision was the right one.
After the animation was released, the number of views worldwide exceeded 10 billion in a short period of time, and the response was excellent.
The animation copyright revenue alone is worth hundreds of millions.
In addition, various peripheral items are already being developed at the moment.
According to conservative estimates in the industry, the IP value of the fairy tale "Snow White" is as high as tens of billions! Even higher!
As for similar fairy tales, Wang Mo originally produced ten of them at once.
Although not every IP value is so high, the value of fairy tales such as "Daughter of the Sea" and "Cinderella" is also considerable.
Many people marveled: Just these few fairy tales are enough to create a fairy tale department under Yunhai Media with a scale of tens of billions.
now.
Tongtong looked at the beautiful Snow White on the TV and chirped: "Wow, Snow White is so beautiful. Sure enough, the fairy tales written by my brother are the most beautiful. Grandpa, when can my brother come to my place to play? I want to listen to my brother's instructions. I tell more fairy tales.”
"Hey!"
He Zhixing touched Tongtong's head and said kindly: "Brother Wang Mo is very busy now. When he is done, I will invite him to come over and play with Tongtong, okay?"
"Ah."
Tongtong nodded and immediately immersed himself in the animation again.
He Zhixing sighed in his heart: Wang Mo, this boy, writes really good fairy tales. Even an old man like me was amazed when I first saw the story of Snow White. It's a pity that this guy focused all his attention on Western fairy tale themes, but Chinese fairy tales were a little less interesting.
He felt that he must talk to Wang Mo in the future and ask him to write more classic fairy tales with Chinese themes.
There are so many mythological characters in China, so it shouldn’t be difficult to write a few fairy tales with a Chinese style, right?
The West has princesses and castles.
China has emperors, cities, heavenly palaces, gods...everything is no worse than the West.
Ok?
Thinking of this, He Zhixing suddenly raised his eyebrows: "A few days ago, Lao Zhao told me that Wang Mo once said on the stage at the International Music Hall Night that he wanted to write a novel with an oriental mythology color? Oriental mythology... a full-length novel …Isn’t this the Chinese-style fairy tale I’m talking about? Well, it may not be appropriate to call it a fairy tale, but it’s almost the same meaning!”
He chuckled.
It seems that Wang Mo is enlightened.
It’s time to enrich the story with Chinese characteristics.
However, I don’t know if the story I wrote can compare with fairy tales such as “Snow White” and “Sleeping Beauty”.
Based on He Zhixing's judgment, these fairy tales with a rich Western flavor have almost reached the extreme of imagination, and it is difficult for any other stories to surpass them.
"It would be terrible if the traditional Chinese mythology stories written by Wang Mo were not as imaginative as "Snow White" and other stories..."
He Zhixing said in his heart.
After all, West Tower already has a certain reputation internationally.
At that time, if the Eastern stories he writes are not as good as Western stories, under the instigation of some Western media, there is a high probability that Eastern culture will be inferior to Western stories.
But he really couldn't think of any story that could surpass those fairy tales.
"Sigh...Wang Mo, does this mean he has pushed himself to a dead end?"
He Zhixing shook his head.
I was about to continue drinking tea.
Suddenly, a notification popped up on his phone, indicating that he had received an email.
"Huh? Is it from Wang Mo?"
He Zhixing didn't pay attention at first, but after seeing the name in the email, he was so excited that he almost jumped up and rushed into the study.
"Contents of the first three chapters of "Journey to the West"!"
He read the email title several times before taking a deep breath and clicking on the email.
As expected, whatever comes to mind comes.
I was just talking about Wang Mo's new story, and the other party actually sent me the content.
But what do the first three chapters mean?
As a big figure in China's literary world, He Zhixing knows that only ancient novels generally use the "number of chapters" method, but today's novelists all use the "number of chapters" method.
"Let's take a look first."
He Zhixing closed the study, carefully downloaded the email, and then clicked on the content of the first three chapters.
[Chapter 1: The source of spiritual root nourishment flows out of the mind and practice to lead a great life]
[The poem says:
Chaos is not divided into chaos, and no one sees it.
Since Pangu broke the Harmony, opened up a clear and turbid distinction.
Covering the group of students and admiring benevolence, inventing everything to be good.
If you want to know good luck, you must look at the biography of Shi E on Journey to the West.
According to the number of heaven and earth, one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred years is one yuan. One yuan is divided into twelve groups, which are the twelve branches of Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai. Each will be 18,000 years old. 】
Just after reading the beginning, He Zhixing's eyes widened: "Ancient vernacular literature?"
He had no idea that Wang Mo's mythological novel "Journey to the West" was actually written in ancient vernacular, and the opening poem was so fascinating.
"Well, with Wang Mo's literary attainments, it is not difficult to write novels in ancient vernacular. Maybe he has his own intention in writing this. I just hope he is not trying to flatter others."
He Zhixing knew that there were many writers in China. In order to show off their own culture, they often used ancient literary styles when writing novels, which made them clumsy and clumsy. Not only was it difficult to read, but the content was also empty.
The first one or two paragraphs of the story only describe the changes in the world, the avenue of time, and other things.
Slightly boring.
But when the explanation came to Dongsheng Shenzhou, He Zhixing's eyes lit up.
In just one paragraph, a paradise place is vividly described and makes people yearn for it. It also tells the legendary story of how the stone monkey originated from heaven and earth.
The story unfolds...
The stone monkey was worshiped as the "Monkey King" by the monkeys. Later, in order to seek immortality, the stone monkey traveled to Nanshanbuzhou to visit famous teachers. Finally, he met the Patriarch Subhuti and was named Sun Wukong.
In just a few thousand words, He Zhixing's eyes were filled with brilliance.
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
"This story! This mythological background, and the descriptions of characters and things are all wonderful."
He Zhixing quickly opened the second chapter.
He never expected that as a person who had read all the ancient Chinese books, he would be curious about a mythical story just after reading the first chapter. He wanted to know what Sun Wukong would do next in the world. Storm.
