Chapter 569: Performance and cost
Shang Haozhi sat on the sofa with doubts. He didn't understand why Bao Jiyi called him, or why Long Tian was here.
On the coffee table in front of Bao Jiyi, there is a document that looks at least thirty or forty pages.
However, Shang Haozhi didn't wait long, and Bao Jiyi soon explained the reason for calling him over.
"Long Yao Company wants to produce the animation of "The King of Rock", this is their plan." Bao Jiyi handed the documents in front of him to Shang Haozhi.
"The King of Rock and Roll?"
Shang Haozhi raised his brows, unexpectedly Long Tian came here for "The King of Rock".
However, Long Yao Animation is one of the best animation companies in China. Although the level is not as good as orochi, the quality is guaranteed. At the same time, he has also participated in the production of "Soul of the Game", and the level is obvious to all.
The animation of "Steel Refining" has been taken by Orochi-in fact, even if it does not take it, Shang Haozhi is not going to hand it over to Long Yao, because "Steel Refining" has already opened up the 11th district market, of course, we must take care of readers and 11 districts Audiences, high-quality animation is indispensable-now, the most popular comic in the entire "icfuture" is undoubtedly "The King of Rock", but this comic has some conditions not long ago, making "The King of Rock" There have been fluctuations in his performance.
" "The Hunting Abyss" is what you are doing, and now you are doing "The King of Rock and Roll", is there time for it?"
In addition to the works of "icfuture", Long Yao also took over comics from other magazines, and Shang Haozhi worried about the quality of "The King of Rock".
"No problem! We are going to produce 24 episodes in half a year. I roughly calculated it, and just happened to be able to do the singing column serialized not long ago. This work must also be our own main work. If we can talk about it this month, the most It will be released soon in July next year. Of course, considering the quality, we may postpone it to October, all of which can be discussed."
"Really?" Shang Haozhi flipped through the plan and saw the final remarks, "You mean, you want to change the story of the original--"
"Definitely. Because of that incident not long ago, it caused dissatisfaction in the music industry. Long Yao is not a Yishu culture. If you can avoid trouble, of course it is best." Long Tian explained.
Shang Haozhi nodded.
The animation company still wants to sell bd. Maybe it will sell the video to the website in the future, but no one will dislike it for making less money.
Of course, if a large-scale production like "Steel Refining" is also a feature-length animation, "icfuture" will also consider investing in exchange for increased sales of magazines and booklets.
If you change to general quality comics, "icfuture" will not necessarily be funded.
Like "The King of Rock and Roll", the magazine will definitely pay part of the cost, but it will not be like supporting "Steel Refining".
"Although I really want to agree, I still have to listen to Teacher Luo's opinions and suggestions. Especially, the plot of this comic needs to be changed. I think it is better to say hello to the author."
"This is the best. After everyone discusses it, tell me the result." Bao Jiyi exhorted.
After Xu Jie learned the news, his depression was gone, and he couldn't wait to call Luo Zheng.
The production of animation, undoubtedly, has an additive effect on the comics. "The King of Rock" has been in a sluggish state recently. If it can be made into an animation, it will also be of great benefit to "The King of Rock".
Luo Zheng was very happy at first, but after learning that Long Yao was making the animation, he said, can you ask a company in District 11 to make it.
"what?"
Xu Jie took the microphone and looked at Shang Haozhi with a puzzled look, and didn't know how to explain it.
……
"Due to this incident, Mr. Shang was depressed all afternoon and contacted several companies in District 11, but no one was willing to answer." When receiving the manuscript, Jian Xiaomei told about the preparation of "The King of Rock" animation. Ye Hexu.
"Of course no one wants to pick up. Those companies in District 11 are not fools." Ye Hexu replied.
"What do you mean?" Jian Xiaomei was a little confused.
"Will you do business that loses money?" Ye Hexu turned his head and asked Jian Xiaomei.
"The comics company in District 11, it's not that the animation of "icfuture" has not been produced..." Jian Xiaomei retorted when he saw Ye Hexu's expression on his face as it should be.
"This has to be seen from two aspects. If it is a second-rate animation company in District 11, it is not as good as Long Yao, and the cost is 10% to 20% higher. If it is the level of Orochi... To be honest, the magazine It depends on whether the magazine is willing to pay a lot of money."
"The "Steel Refining" is out, and "The King of Rock and Roll" should be fine too, right?"
"Not the same! Jian Xiaomei, why are you so fascinated in this matter? Except for "Steel Refining" and "Hire of Goss", other domestic comics need to use an animation company in District 11, and the price must go up. Okay, Huaxia has to contribute its full capital." Ye Hexu turned to look at Jian Xiaomei, his face full of contempt.
"The results of "The King of Rock and Roll" are also very good, not long ago, I also won three small books first." Jian Xiaomei saw Ye Hexu's expression, a little bit above.
"Please, no matter how good the results of "The King of Rock" in China are, what does it have to do with District 11? They just made a judgment after reading the book results of "Young Leap". "The King of Rock" has "Young Leap". "'S little book?"
Jian Xiao brows and shook his head.
"Has "The King of Rock" open the market in District 11?"
Jian Xiaomei shook his head again.
"There is not even a market. The company in District 11 makes it. Whom does the bd sell to? If it can't sell the bd, how can the company make money? Therefore, China Fang must make all of it. It is completely different from "Steel Refining", "Steel Refining" Single-line books can be sold in 11 districts, bd also has a market, "Steel Refining" has also won the number one in the small book of "Young Leap", and the ratings of animation in 11 districts should not be low, right?"
"It seems to be around 7%." Jian Xiaomei recalled ~lightnovelpub.net~ Now there are more animations produced, and the ratings have dropped a bit.
"7%, how do you compare the two comics?" Ye Hexu asked rhetorically.
Jian Xiao's eyebrows are dumb.
Since "The King of Rock" does not have a market in District 11, no matter whether it is a book, bd or surroundings, the audience is not too large, and it is basically unprofitable.
"Steel Refining" is different. The average sales volume of the single book is close to 700,000 copies, and the popularity of "Shoun Leap" is also good. Such comics are hard not to be popular.
"The two sides won't froze, right?" Jian Xiaomei muttered to herself, somewhat sympathetic to Xu Jie.
"Then who knows...Jian Xiaomei, do you know thank me now? If I also ask to be produced by an animation company in District 11, do you think you are also embarrassed?" Ye Hexu said in a hurry.
"……"
Jian Xiao's eyebrows rolled, trying to refute, but she also thought that if Ye Hexu was so troubled, she wouldn't have much choice.
"Let's see... There must be a conclusion to this matter. I personally think that Long Yao will take this comic in the end." Ye Hexu put his hands behind his head, "The production level of the two sides will not be too far apart, but The cost is not small. The magazine must consider these factors."
Although Jian Xiaomei was dissatisfied with Ye Hexu's supposedly supposed expression, he still had to admit that what Ye Hexu said was the truth.
Any domestic comics want to have the "treatment" of "Steel Refining", but there is no matching result.
