Chapter 168 Electrician Liu
……

……

"Push it."

"what?"

Li Li was taken aback, hesitated, and then said, "Xiao Gu..."

What use are their personal connections?

Gu Qing's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was indifferent, "Just because I played a supporting role, they'll send me movies to act in?"

"They value my fame and want to use my fans to make money at the box office."

If the movie becomes a hit, I might offer a few words of thanks, but what if it doesn't?

"How...how..."

Li Li thought to herself, how could it not be popular?

But then he suddenly thought of the female lead in the movie and swallowed his words.

With a biological chemical gas involved, things are really hard to say.

"We are a small workshop. The reason we have been called the industry's lucky charm and box office magic is because I am very careful in choosing movies. I dare not squander my reputation."

"If I really wanted to listen to your opinions, I would have already disappeared without a trace."

Going to make a cameo appearance in this terrible movie would do more harm than good.

It's a newly popular box office magic bullet and has earned the reputation of being the industry's lucky charm.

It's estimated that most of these films will be destroyed once they're released.

Gu Qing must have gone mad to act like that.

"understand."

Li Li was choked and her face turned red, but it was indeed the truth: "I pushed it away immediately."

"Is there anything else?"

"There are two more things, one is that 'Brotherhood of Blades' was also nominated for the Golden Rooster and Golden Horse Awards at the end of the year."

Among them, at the Golden Rooster Awards, Xiao Gu, you were nominated for Best Supporting Actor along with Wang Qianyuan. Director Lu asked you if you wanted to come along with the crew for a cameo appearance.

"Best Supporting Actor?"

Gu Qing turned around in surprise, "Sister Li, you're not kidding me, are you?"

Can he be nominated for Best Supporting Actor?

This is truly unique among the current top celebrities.

"Xiao Gu, don't underestimate yourself. Your acting in Brotherhood of Blades was really good. Your fans aren't just exaggerating."

Li Li smiled broadly, "You're good at fighting and acting, especially the scene where you fell to the ground in the snow. It's already showing signs of becoming a viral sensation."

"However, being nominated is one thing, but the chances of winning are almost zero, so you should be prepared."

"I'll see when I have time at the end of the year. If I'm free, I'll go with the film crew for a visit."

Gu Qing lightly clicked the mouse. "There's one more thing."

"Deng Chao's movie 'The Dead End' premieres in three days. Xiao Gu, do you want to go see it?"

"Book me a ticket."

Gu Qing reminded him, "Remember to keep it a secret; I want to give Brother Chao a surprise."

"no problem."

After asking all the questions about the job, Li Li tactfully left.

……

The next two days,

Gu Qing happily played the game for two days and also bought a set of the original Three-Body Problem novel, experiencing the joy of reading again after a long time.

After watching it, I couldn't sleep all night and took some photos.

I'm sharing this book on my blog: "A great science fiction work, highly recommended."

"First! My little brother is still up so late?"

"Haha, I didn't expect my younger brother to like reading novels. I also really enjoy reading novels."

Is this a business announcement?

A fan just posted a comment.

Gu Qing @My younger brother loves meat: "No, also, I love vegetables too."

After I replied, the comment section exploded.

"Ahhh, it's really my younger brother!"

Countless fans flocked to comment on Gu Qing's post.

The fan who received the reply was so excited that she almost jumped out of bed, twisting and turning her body, completely wide awake.

There are fewer people at night.

With so many fans following Gu Qing, it quickly rose to the top of the trending searches, and also made the hashtag #GuQingRecommendsTheThreeBodyTheory# a little popular.

at the same time,

An electrician, slacking off at the power plant, couldn't help but scratch his itchy scalp. "Gu Qing? That name sounds familiar..."

"Did the director who came before mention this name to me?"

The books I write are endorsed by big stars.

Especially that line: 'A great science fiction work'

Liu is feeling pretty good.

A single action by a top celebrity can have a huge impact. Many fans, upon seeing Gu Qing promote a book, didn't care about the content at all; they just bought a copy first.

wealthy
I saw a book that only cost twenty yuan.
then,

With a slip of the hand, I bought a hundred books to tear up and play with.

The books accumulated by the copyright holders sold out in less than an hour.

"Big Liu, you're going to be famous! You're going to be famous!"

"Can I get a bigger share of the money?"

"No."

"Snapped--"

After hanging up the phone, electrician Liu curiously searched for Gu Qing, intending to see who this person was.

"One, ten, hundred, thousand... forty-seven million fans?!"

Liu's small eyes behind his eye sockets widened in surprise. "This is a big star!"

He clicked on Gu Qing's latest tweet.

In the comments section, Gu Qing was still sharing her thoughts after reading the book with her fans.

"Little brother, since you like The Three-Body Problem so much, why don't you just buy the rights and make your own film? We'll buy tickets to support you."

One fan jokingly remarked.

"The rights to The Three-Body Problem should have been sold by now, right?"

Gu Qing seemed to remember that after The Three-Body Problem became a hit in her previous life, some marketing accounts reposted the news that Liu Cixin had sold the copyright shortly after the book was written.

The price is pitifully low.

“I sold it. I sold it to director Zhang Fanfan for 100,000 yuan in 2009.”

For some reason, Liu Cixin sent a message to Gu Qing, saying, "If you like this work, you can ask him to buy it."

He wasn't sure if Gu Qing could see it.

Rather than having his beloved work shelved, it would be better to hand it over to a true fan who appreciates his books.

"You're the author of The Three-Body Problem?!"

Gu Qing did indeed see an ID named 'shipship'.

no way,
Among a sea of ​​cheesy IDs that say things like "My younger brother is the best" or "My younger brother is the cutest."

This English name is really eye-catching.

"Yes, thank you for liking my work."

Da Liu was a little nervous.

Celebrities do seem distant and glamorous to ordinary people.

"Teacher, after the Three-Body trilogy, is there a sequel?"

Gu Qing was equally excited and sent another message to Li Li, asking her to contact a director named Zhang Fanfan to buy the rights to a novel called The Three-Body Problem.

"That's all for now. The third part, Death's End, is already the finale."

Da Liu replied apologetically.

As Gu Qing started chatting with him...

A group of fans of the Gu family also greeted him warmly: "Hello, author! Hello, author!"

"Order placed to support!"

"Dear author, which characters in your books do you think my younger brother would be suitable to play?"

"Uh... this actor is too young, and he looks young too. If he waits until he's thirty, he should be able to play the main character Luo Ji in the book."

Liu underestimated the enthusiasm of his fans.

Luo Ji's first appearance in the book is at the age of 28.

Given Gu Qing's youthful appearance, Lau felt that she should be at least 30 years old to play the role.

"Haha, thank you for praising my little brother's youthful appearance."

"Teacher, could you create more works featuring my younger brother? I would definitely buy your books to support you."

"Add one, add one, I'll buy it too!"

"Uh... I'll try my best to write it."

Da Liu was actually a little tempted.

Earning money to support one's family is always the author's first choice when facing reality.

the next morning,
Li Li was extremely efficient; she not only contacted the director but also quoted a price.

"five million?"

"Yes, we were originally talking about three million, but then they saw my blog this morning and found out that you made this book trend on social media, so they immediately started asking for an exorbitant amount."

Li Li was furious. "Raising the price on the spot, how rude!"

"Five million it is. Help me draft a contract to transfer the copyright of The Three-Body Problem."

Gu Qingzhen doesn't think she has too many.

He never expected to find such a hidden gem while reading a novel.

If we wait a while, the Hugo Awards will announce the winner of The Three-Body Problem.

The copyright price could easily increase tenfold!
Zhang Fanfan?
Who on earth is flipping through this?!
