Chapter 52
Chapter 52 Why don’t you say 205?
Kappa wanted to know about the “Special Event Task Force” project, Fan Zhe agreed to him.
Kappa is the person in charge of the animation project team of “Full-time Master”. Yes, but he is also the leader of the copyright development of Lewen Group. He can be regarded as a senior group. In copyright marketing and development, besides the boss, it is him. Have the final say.
“Full-time” is a key project of Lewen Group, and he must keep an eye on it. But the news that Dimension Entertainment was preparing to develop “Special Event Task Force” also made him very concerned.
Although the copyright has been sold, the follow-up income of this work has nothing to do with Le Wen Group, but to be honest, Kappa still very much hopes that the adaptation of this work can be successful.
The main business of Lewen Group is to make online novels. Qidian Chinese website, which is its subsidiary, is regarded as the largest Chinese reading website. From the opening of the station to the present, over the past ten years, I don’t know how many outstanding works have been accumulated. At the same time, the development of Lewen Group has been getting better and better in recent years, and some excellent works will appear almost every once in a while.
With such a huge content treasury, the best way for Lewen Group to appreciate is to make its works more valuable.
Online reading is certainly the most important basic disk of Lewen Group, but if you want to further develop, it is better to maximize the value of the IP owned by it.
Under this premise, they attach great importance to the adaptation of film, animation, and game for every work from Qidian. Obviously, if the performance of the adaptation of the work is very good, it will in turn bring the value of other IP copyrights that have not been sold, and it will go up with the tide.
What’s more, although all the copyrights of the work “Special Event Task Force” are now in the hands of Dimension Entertainment, right…Is it true that IP development can’t get a piece of the pie?
Kappa don’t think so.
As far as he knows, the organizational structure of Dimension Entertainment has just been set up, and even from the eyes of people from a large group like him, it is too crude. The personnel and financial departments are still the boss of Fan Zhe with several subordinates. The marketing department for external publicity, the Ministry of Commerce for external communication, the Legal Department for legal issues… These important support departments are even more connected. There are no shadows.
With the ability of ‘dimensional entertainment’, he can make animations and do them well. Kappa doesn’t doubt this at all.
But in this fully competitive market, it is not enough to rely solely on quality to make works succeed in a broad sense.
When Fan Zhe made the remake of “Full Time”, he used clever tricks. With the original works and animations of “Full-time Master”, they have gained a great reputation, and only through the quality of winning, they have gained wider recognition.
The project of “Special Event Task Force”, the situation is quite different. First of all, in terms of the popularity of the original work, this niche work is very different from “Full Time” itself. What’s more, it was adapted for the first time, and there is no previous work to drain it.
Under such circumstances, the quality of the work is good, and it is easy to create a situation that is not popular. As for Dimension Entertainment, it is even possible that the works will be produced at that time, and as a result, they will not be sold.
But if you cooperate with Lewen Group, the situation will be very different.
Anyhow, for such a large group, the marketing channels will be very rich. And the adaptation of the work “Special Event Task Force” to the public, it is also very helpful for Lewen Group to continue to promote its other IP-their copyrights are sold out and the works with better results Dare to bid tens of millions.
After considering this, Fan Zhe decided to cooperate with Lewen Group if the conditions are right.
……
came with the idea of cooperation, but after seeing a series of conceptual design drawings provided by Fan Zhe, Kappa retreated in his heart.
He smiled bitterly and said, “President Fan…you are really brave.”
I dare to do this kind of thing.
Fan Zhe said cheerfully: “I don’t have the courage to do it. If I like this style, I just did it.”
“President Fan is really self-willed. He has invested tens of millions of dollars, so he doesn’t care…” Kappa couldn’t help his desire to complain.
Fan Zhe smiled and said nothing.
His expression, in the eyes of Kappa, looks like a winner.
Kappa was a little suspicious.
Judging from his own professional level, it is really difficult for such a niche work to produce results. It stands to reason that he shouldn’t have invested in it.
But…
Think about the remake of “Full Time”, and then think about the quality of the finished animations for the second season of the three episodes of “Full Time” that Dimension Entertainment has produced. He feels that he should trust the other party.
“According to what you said, the animation “Special Event Task Force”, you also want to do a quarterly broadcast, ten episodes in a season?”
“Yes.”
“Then… how about the acquisition of the broadcasting rights of this animation for 1.5 million yuan?”
Fan Zhe smiled directly, why don’t you say two hundred and five?
Kappa was also embarrassed and happy.
If you count it, people just bought the copyrights of the two works “Project Team” and “Evolutionary 4.6 Billion Entries,” and spent 3 million to buy back 1.5 million of the animation products? Ha ha……
Although the style of this work also knows the production cost will not be too high, but this price is obviously impossible.
But, for the style of this work, Kappa would not dare to charge a higher price.
Fan Zhe withdrew his smile and said solemnly: “Then let me give you an idea. After we have finished producing this work, we can hand it over to you for operation. You can get a certain share of the proceeds from the animation sales; the peripheral copyright of the animation works. Development can also be divided among you, but this division does not involve subsequent works. And you are responsible for the operation of the works, including sales and promotion. What do you think?”
Kappa quickly figured it out in his heart, which is acceptable.
His face was calm: “In general, this cooperation model sounds good, and we can try it. However, we definitely need to negotiate further with the implementation of the share ratio and specific terms.”
“no problem.”
“That’s OK, I’ll talk to our boss then.”
After confirming the general intention, Fan Zhe mentioned another matter.
“Can you contact the author of “Special Event Task Force”?”
“What are you doing?” Kappa was wary. The author’s resources are very sensitive.
“Relax, I just want to invite the original author to join the adaptation of the animation script.”
“This problem is not big, but we have to contact the author first, this is still based on the author’s own wishes.”
“I hope I can hear your good news.”
After sending away the kappa, Fan Zhe temporarily put the matter behind his head.
He believes that Kappa and the owner of Le Wen Group will make the right choice.
