Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are adapting Liu Cixin's sci-fi book series in partnership with China's Yoozoo Group. Yoozoo Group chairman Lin Qi, who is credited as a producer on the Netflix series, was hospitalized last week after having been poisoned. Chinese authorities have arrested Xu Yao, a senior executive in Yoozoo's film and television division, in connection with the poisoning.
