The Three Body Problem series has a wild background

Xu purchased hundreds of toxins and poisoned Lin with small doses every day for over 100 days.The journey of the copyright for the film/TV adaptation of "The Three-Body Problem" was even more winding than mentioned above.

Around 2010, a married couple (the husband was a director and the wife was a screenwriter) spent almost their entire fortune to purchase the film and television adaptation rights from the author for prices between 100,000 to 500,000 RMB. At the time, for obscure Chinese science fiction, this was already a decent price.
