Youzu Interactive currently owns the copyrights to the famous Hugo Award Winner, Chinese science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem." The company is planning to use the science fiction as basis to create and develop series of cultural products ranging from films, games, comics, novels as well as commercial real estate to build an all-time cultural brand.
"Connecting games and movies is a top priority in Youzu's future plans, led by 'The Three-Body Problem'," Lin Qi said. "In order to make it perfect, we've added additional investment. In the gaming industry, if your game fails, the public will only talk about it for two or three years, but in the film industry, if your project i.e. 'The Three-Body Problem' fails, then you'll hear about it the rest of your lifebecause people will say you've ruined a Hugo Award novel."
