Entertainment from Divorce

Chapter 1664

After Engineer Wu left, the president's office returned to silence.

Tan Yue sat back down in his office chair, picked up the documents on the table, and began to look through them again.

This time, instead of looking at the data summary, he reviewed the relevant materials on overseas collaborations of "The Three-Body Problem," especially the release agreements reached with video platforms in various countries.

According to available information, Brilliant Entertainment has already reached agreements with more than 30 mainstream video platforms worldwide to release "The Three-Body Problem".

These platforms will officially release the complete series of "The Three-Body Problem" after its conclusion, along with multilingual subtitle versions to meet the viewing needs of audiences in different countries and regions, allowing more overseas viewers to watch and relive the exciting plot of "The Three-Body Problem".

In addition, many overseas television stations have also submitted broadcast applications for "The Three-Body Problem" to Brilliant Entertainment, hoping to broadcast "The Three-Body Problem" on television and further expand its influence.

The overseas distribution department is currently in talks with these television stations and expects to reach a cooperation agreement soon.

Looking at these cooperation agreements, Tan Yue was filled with joy.

He knew that the success of "The Three-Body Problem" was not just about its popularity during its broadcast; more importantly, it laid a solid foundation for the overseas dissemination of Chinese science fiction films and television series, and opened up new paths for the international development of Brilliant Entertainment.

The partnership with over thirty mainstream video platforms worldwide signifies that "The Three-Body Problem" will enjoy long-term overseas distribution, becoming known and loved by a wider international audience. It also means that Chinese science fiction films and television series will reach a more distant world and gain wider recognition and acceptance through "The Three-Body Problem."

Tan Yue stood up, walked to the French windows, and looked at the bustling scene outside, his heart filled with determination and anticipation.

He took out his phone and browsed through the news and audience feedback related to the overseas broadcast of "The Three-Body Problem". Seeing the positive reviews from overseas film critics such as Allen, seeing the love and recognition of "The Three-Body Problem" from overseas audiences, and seeing Chinese science fiction films and television series gaining global attention, a sense of pride welled up in his heart.

Before we knew it, it was already noon.

Chen Ye brought lunch, which was a nutritionally balanced meal with both meat and vegetables, a reasonable combination.

Tan Yue put down the documents in his hand, ate a few bites, and then went back to work.

He first reviewed the relevant matters concerning the second run of "The Three-Body Problem" and the cooperation on adaptation rights, marked the cooperation projects that needed to be followed up, and arranged for the overseas distribution department to speed up the negotiation process to ensure that all cooperation was successfully implemented.

In the afternoon, Tan Yue convened a meeting of the company's senior management to report on the final data of the overseas broadcast of "The Three-Body Problem" and the progress of various collaborations. He affirmed and praised the work of each department and made arrangements for subsequent work.

The meeting lasted for more than an hour, with a warm and orderly atmosphere. Everyone's face was full of enthusiasm and anticipation. Everyone firmly believed that under Tan Yue's leadership, Brilliant Entertainment would definitely develop better and better.

After the meeting, Tan Yue returned to the president's office to continue working.

As he flipped through the documents, he pondered the company's future development plans, his heart filled with determination.

As night falls, the city lights gradually illuminate, neon lights flash, lighting up the entire city's night sky, making it exceptionally dazzling.

After finishing his work, Tan Yue tidied up the documents on his desk, picked up his briefcase, and turned to leave the office.

As the elevator slowly descended, he leaned against the elevator wall, sorting through his recent work, his heart filled with peace and anticipation.

He opened the car door, got in, started the car, and drove towards Ruishan Residential Area.

The car was filled with a faint woody scent. He leaned back in his seat, watching the neon lights flash outside the window, feeling warm and at peace.

The car slowly drove into Ruishan residential area and stopped in front of the villa.

Tan Yue opened the car door, got out, and walked towards the villa. The living room light was soft, shining through the windows into the yard, creating a particularly warm atmosphere.

He pushed open the door and walked into the villa, where he saw Chen Ziyu holding the little dumpling and sitting on the sofa, while Li Yulan was setting out the food at the dining table.

"You're back?" Chen Ziyu smiled gently when she saw Tan Yue, her voice soft. "Come and rest for a bit. The food's just been heated up. Come and eat. Were you busy again today?"

"Yes, you're back." Tan Yue walked over and gently sat down next to Chen Ziyu, carefully stroking the little girl's face, his voice tender, "Little dumpling, Daddy's back. Did you miss Daddy?"

The little dumpling seemed to feel her father's touch. Her little mouth moved, and a sweet smile appeared on her face. Her little hand gently grasped Tan Yue's finger, and she looked very cute.

Looking at the adorable little dumpling, Tan Yue's weariness vanished instantly, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"I have some good news to tell you today." Tan Yue looked at Chen Ziyu and Li Yulan, his tone full of relief.

"The Three-Body Problem has successfully concluded its run overseas, with a cumulative global viewership exceeding 8.7 billion, setting a new record for the highest number of overseas broadcasts of Chinese film and television works. It has also reached listing cooperation with more than 30 video platforms around the world, so more overseas audiences will be able to watch The Three-Body Problem in the future."

"That's wonderful, that's wonderful!" Chen Ziyu nodded, a relieved smile on her face. "You've worked so hard, and you've finally received the best reward. I knew that 'The Three-Body Problem' would be a success, and that it would allow Chinese science fiction to be seen by the world."

Li Yulan also said with a smile, "Yes, Xiaoyue, you are amazing. You have put in so much effort for this work, and now it has finally been a complete success. It was really not easy."

"This is not my achievement alone, but the result of the hard work of the whole team and everyone's efforts," Tan Yue said with a smile, a humble smile on his face. "Once the follow-up work is stable, I will spend some time with you all, take you out for a walk, and let you relax."

"Okay, we'll wait for you." Chen Ziyu nodded, her heart filled with happiness.

Li Yulan walked over and said with a smile, "Come and eat, the food is all warmed up, it's all your favorites, eat more to replenish your nutrition. You've been working so hard lately."

"Thank you, Mom." Tan Yue nodded, stood up, and walked towards the dining table. He sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and ate the warm food, feeling a sense of warmth and peace in his heart.

At the dinner table, Li Yulan kept putting food on Tan Yue's plate, urging him to eat more. Chen Ziyu held the little dumpling, looking at Tan Yue tenderly, her face full of happiness.

The entire room was filled with a warm and happy atmosphere of family affection.

As night faded and dawn broke, golden sunlight pierced through the clouds, illuminating the glass curtain wall of the dazzling entertainment and office building, reflecting a brilliant light and casting a warm glow. A new day quietly began, the city gradually awoke, and the streets were bustling with pedestrians and vehicles, brimming with life and vitality.

Inside the office building of Brilliant Entertainment, a flurry of activity had already begun. Employees, brimming with enthusiasm, entered their offices one after another to start their new day's work.

After a night's rest, Tan Yue arrived at the company full of energy.

Unlike his usual hurried demeanor, he wore a relaxed smile today.

The overseas run of "The Three-Body Problem" has come to a successful conclusion, various collaborations are progressing smoothly, and the short film shooting plan of Lu Chuan's team has also been approved. Everything is developing in the expected direction.

Upon entering the CEO's office, Chen Ye found it spotless, with warm coffee and neatly arranged documents on the desk—everything was in perfect order.

Tan Yue put down his briefcase, sat in his office chair, picked up his tea and took a small sip. The warm liquid slid down his throat, dispelling the morning chill and making his thoughts clearer.

He opened the documents on the table and began to organize his work for the day.

Follow up on matters related to the overseas release of "The Three-Body Problem" and liaise with overseas video platforms to confirm the release date.

Urge the overseas distribution department to advance negotiations on second-run broadcasts and adaptation rights cooperation.

We also need to keep an eye on the filming progress of Lu Chuan's team to ensure that the short film can be completed on time and successfully submitted to the State Administration of Culture.

Just as Tan Yue was focused on organizing his work, there was a gentle knock on the office door, and Chen Ye's gentle voice came through: "President Tan, Director Lu Chuan is here. He said the short film has been edited and he would like to show it to you."

Upon hearing this, Tan Yue smiled with satisfaction, put down his pen, and said gently, "Okay, let him in."

"Understood, Mr. Tan." Chen Ye replied, turned and walked out of the office, and soon brought Lu Chuan in.

At this moment, Lu Chuan looked visibly tired, with faint dark circles under his eyes, clearly having stayed up many nights editing the short film.

However, his eyes were exceptionally bright, filled with anticipation and trepidation. He was clutching a laptop tightly in his hands, which contained the short film of "The Three-Body Problem" that he and his team had worked on all night to complete.

"Hello, Mr. Tan." Lu Chuan greeted him respectfully, walked briskly to the desk, placed his laptop on it, and his tone carried a hint of barely perceptible tension.

"Mr. Tan, after our team worked day and night, the short film of 'The Three-Body Problem' has been fully edited. We brought it to you today so that you could take a look and see if there is anything that needs to be modified."

Tan Yue gestured for him to sit down, his gaze falling on the laptop. His tone was gentle and friendly: "You've worked hard, Lu Chuan. You and your team have been working overtime and staying up late these past few days. You've really worked hard. Please sit down, let's take a look together."

Lu Chuan quickly sat down, a humble smile on his face: "I am honored to participate in the filming and editing of this short film and to contribute to the dissemination of Chinese science fiction. Moreover, with your previous careful guidance, we were able to avoid many detours and successfully complete the production of the short film."

Tan Yue smiled, said nothing more, and nodded: "Okay, let's watch the short film now."

Lu Chuan immediately opened his laptop and skillfully operated it. Soon, the short film began to play.

On the screen, familiar elements from "The Three-Body Problem" slowly appeared, opening with a grand cosmic scene. The deep blue starry sky was vast and boundless, and the outline of the Three-Body planet was faintly visible in the starry sky. Accompanied by music that incorporated traditional Chinese instruments such as the guzheng and erhu, it was both awe-inspiring to science fiction and charming to Eastern culture, instantly capturing Tan Yue's attention.

The short film was presented strictly according to the previously revised shooting plan, closely following the core plot of "The Three-Body Problem", with smooth and natural camera transitions and a well-paced rhythm.

It features stunning sci-fi special effects that vividly showcase the vastness of the universe and the thrill of Guzheng's actions, while also incorporating delicate scenes depicting the characters' emotions.

Every shot is incredibly moving, giving the short film both visual impact and emotional warmth.

The subtitles are accurate and easy to understand, taking into account the aesthetics and comprehension habits of overseas audiences. They accurately convey the core plot and concepts while retaining the charm of the original text, without any sense of awkwardness.

The background music is perfectly matched, with grand and majestic instrumental music blending seamlessly with traditional Chinese instruments. The rhythm matches the rhythm of the shots, sometimes breathtaking and sometimes delicate and soothing, further enhancing the short film's appeal.

The short film not only showcases the essence of "The Three-Body Problem" but also highlights the profound cultural heritage of China, accurately conveying the original intention of the State Administration of Culture.

Tan Yue watched intently, his eyes fixed on the screen, sometimes nodding slightly, sometimes flashing a look of approval in his eyes.

He could clearly feel the dedication of Lu Chuan and his team.

Before we knew it, the short film had finished playing and the screen slowly went dark.

Tan Yue leaned back in his office chair, remained silent for a moment, and repeatedly replayed the wonderful scenes from the short film in his mind, feeling gratified and appreciative.

He looked up at Lu Chuan with a bright smile on his face, his tone full of praise: "You and your team have done an excellent job. This short film perfectly meets my requirements and even exceeds my expectations."

Upon hearing Tan Yue's affirmation, Lu Chuan's tension vanished instantly, replaced by a relieved and excited smile. The fatigue of the past few days seemed to disappear in that instant.

He quickly stood up and said sincerely, "Thank you for your approval, Mr. Tan. If there's anything else that needs to be modified, we will adjust it immediately and do our best to achieve the best results."

"No need to change it, it's fine as it is." Tan Yue waved his hand, his tone firm.

"Whether it's the selection of the plot, the presentation of the shots, the translation of the subtitles, or the matching of the background music, everything is done very well. It not only showcases the grand science fiction setting of 'The Three-Body Problem' but also conveys the charm of Chinese culture, which is in line with our original intention."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "I plan to officially release this short film right when the entire 'Three-Body Problem' series has finished airing and is at the height of its popularity."

As he said this, a look of certainty flashed in Tan Yue's eyes.

"Currently, 'The Three-Body Problem' is very popular worldwide, and overseas audiences are paying close attention to it. By taking advantage of this popularity to release the short film, more overseas audiences can see it, which can further expand the influence of 'The Three-Body Problem' and better showcase the strength of Chinese science fiction to the world, allowing more people to understand and recognize Chinese science fiction."
