Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

Hearing this, Cheng Lie lowered his head and thought for a while.

After all, after watching so many works of Jing Yu from now on, it's just the difference between earning more and earning less, so there is no possibility of not earning.

Even for the work of The Family, Cheng Lie has read part of the script behind it, and he self-assesses that it is no problem to save capital.

Under such circumstances, Jing Yu wants to make a big investment work, what should I say? Although it is a bit risky, they are not without that strength.

According to the total calculation of 5 Centimeters per Second on Qingyun.com, the three chapters each have an average of 17 million paid views.

As far as this part of the webcast revenue is concerned, the revenue brought by 5 Centimeters per Second is 230 million, and the advertisement placement in this movie is about 20 to 30 million. Now many TV stations also want to buy broadcasting rights , there are more than 10 million revenues on it, and the peripherals are indeed second five. There is no peripherals to develop. , If you want to come, you can also have a lot of income.

Of course, songs with a speed of 5 centimeters per second, especially when the wind blows, are very popular. The music copyright fee may bring tens of millions of income in the past one or two years, but these are Jing Yu's personal income, Cheng Lie will not be included in the company development funds.

But in any case, for the work of Miao Wu, with an investment of 50 to 60 million, and an additional 10 to 20 million in promotional resources in the later stage, the total revenue brought to Jing Yu and his subsidiaries will exceed 300 million, which is a high probability event.

Coupled with the current hits of The Family and Dubo's Apocalypse, there is a high probability that Jing Yu will not be short of money this year.

However, according to Jing Yu's vision, he is not satisfied with the investment in special effects for Destiny Zero. He is discussing the details of the additional budget with the special effects company. Shang Jingyu wants to invite some well-known actors, who are popular, good-looking, and have a good image and temperament. Although the participation fees of Dazhou actors are cheap, it depends on how you invite them? This amount of expenses may not be much lower than the cost of efficiency, plus the cost of filming and publicity of this drama.

Two hundred million! ! !

No matter what Cheng Lie thought, he felt that the final cost would exceed this figure.

"Actually, it's not impossible for us to make a big production, but such a big production will be broadcast exclusively on Qingyun's website. Isn't it, it's too cheap for Qingyun! We did promise to cooperate with them when we bought the shares Three works, but" Cheng Lie reminded Jing Yu appropriately.

Jing Yu immediately understood what Cheng Lie meant.

They are just a shareholder of Qingyun.com, not a controlling shareholder. Although 17% of the shares is a lot, it is just like that. Can Jing Yu get his money back?

Thinking of this, Jing Yu was indeed a little hesitant.

"Then what do you mean?" Jing Yu looked at Cheng Lie.

"You have confidence in this work, of course I also have confidence in it. But." Cheng Lie said.

"There is no need to put all eggs in one basket. It doesn't matter if it is a medium-cost work like Dubo's Apocalypse. Even if we want to broadcast on multiple platforms, others may not agree, but fate is zero. With its It’s different in terms of investment and production scale.”

"You mean, contact Eggplant Video and Jixun Video, and when the time comes, the three platforms will broadcast it?"

"Of course not, you are a shareholder of Qingyun, and after you and Qingyun discussed it, the works broadcast exclusively in Qingyun will be broadcast on two other hostile video platforms, and you and Qingyun's board of directors will not be able to explain it."

"I mean, your work can be broadcast on Qingyun.com and Yunteng TV at the same time. The competition between Yunteng TV and Qingyun is not so fierce. Of course, if Qingyun disagrees with this approach, then your first Sanbu and Qingyun's solo cooperation works just change to other dramas. The work of Destiny Zero does not need to abide by the solo contract. This level of operation is to interfere with us, we are investing in Qingyun, not becoming a subsidiary of Qingyun, not to say that there is no possibility of cooperation with eggplant, Jixun." Cheng Lie said.

"In fact, after Second Five, I also think that the video website has great potential, but it is still in the development stage after all. Many of our works, in fact, the cost-effective exclusive broadcast on its platform is not so high, just like Second Five, although there is no loss , but release it in theaters first, and then launch Qingyun, obviously you can earn more, but this was clearly required in the original contract of participating in Qingyun, so there is no way. It's just that among the three agreed solo dramas, there is one This is a work like Destiny Zero with an investment of over 200 million. I think we are at a loss."

Jing Yu fell into thinking when he heard this.

Cheng Lie's proposal is also very reasonable. Many popular TV dramas in Jing Yu's previous life were broadcast by TV stations and video websites at the same time. In this way, neither TV stations nor video websites would want to see them. Naturally, they want to broadcast exclusively to attract attention. flow. But for TV drama producers, multi-platform broadcasting is the most beneficial way.

It's very simple. Some elderly people don't use computers and mobile phones. If you engage in exclusive broadcasts on video sites, you will simply give up this part of the audience. On the contrary, many young people cannot turn on the TV twice a year. I won't watch it either.

"Will Qingyun and Yunteng agree?" Jing Yu asked.

"There is a high probability that I will agree. If Qing Yun disagrees, as I said just now, on the video site, Destiny Zero can find Eggplant and Jixun to co-broadcast the third solo drama with Qing Yun. I will help you later." They can produce it. Similarly, if Yunteng disagrees, we can sell the broadcasting rights of Destiny Zero to the Big Six, and then launch it on other video sites at the same time.”

Because there is no monopoly in the industry, Jingyu has too much controllability.

"However, to watch dramas on TV stations, you only need to buy a monthly subscription fee for paid TV stations. Watching dramas on websites is to watch one episode, and pay for one episode. Therefore, if we want to maximize the revenue, we may have to use the online version of the video website. Add something special," Cheng Lie said.

something special?

"I see." Jing Yu immediately understood what Cheng Lie meant.

If a person has both TV channels and broadband Internet access at home, and if Destiny Zero is broadcast on both the website and the TV station, he will definitely watch this work on TV. Because his pay-TV fee has already been paid, the money cannot be saved. But if Jing Yu's version of the video website with zero fate has some unique plots that are not in the TV version, it will be hard to say.

Many viewers who are fascinated by this work on TV will definitely focus on these things and subscribe to watch new content on video sites.

For example, just like playing a game, there are main plots and side plots. Whether the latter is done or not will not affect the overall situation and the integrity of the story.

And Cheng Lie is expressly telling Jing Yu that you can put a little thought into writing the script. If you really want to do this, you can broadcast the version on the video website, add some side plots to it, and improve the world view.

And these things. To be honest, it is very easy to operate. There are so many original contents in the fate series. The characters, such as King of Heroes, Jin Jingying, or Artoria's past characters added to the website broadcast version, will not affect the main line. , and can also attract more TV viewers into the pit.

Forehead.

Jing Yu looked at Cheng Lie. He probably had thought about these things for a long time, but today's opportunity was right, so he brought it up.

"But why does it feel like we have become profiteers!"

Jing Yu has basically decided to do what Cheng Lie suggested. I just feel that this is not very kind.

"How can this be a profiteer? The version broadcast by your TV station is filmed according to the script you ordered, and we don't cut corners. The things added to the video website version require more investment to shoot. Audiences who are interested in the drama know more about this work, and they have painstakingly added the content of the script, of course, the audience will spend more money to enjoy more drama services." Cheng Lie looked at Jing Yu strangely.

"The two versions of your show are the difference between the royal version and the ordinary version, not the difference between the beggar's version and the ordinary version. They didn't cheat the audience. You have nothing to worry about."

ah. this.

"What you said makes sense, but I'm speechless." Jing Yu thought for a while, but couldn't find a reason to refute.

Playing games, manufacturers have to spend more money to add dlc plots, right?

Playing cs, the skin ak also has to draw a treasure chest! How can there be so many free ones.

"Understood. I will discuss this matter with Qingyun. If they agree, then do so. If they disagree, it can only be said that it is a pity. They missed the treasure by themselves. Yunteng. You are more familiar with that side, It's up to Cheng Lie to discuss it."

During the half-hour conversation between Jing Yu and Cheng Lie, they happily decided on the broadcast mode of Destiny Zero.

TV stations and video sites, broadcast simultaneously!

After Cheng Lie left, he also began to ask the people below to send over the detailed information of the actors and movie stars who are currently available in Dazhou.

Then he was still holding the description of the character design of the Destiny Zero series that Jing Yu sorted out.

In the next time, he has to find a large number of suitable actors according to Jing Yu's personality description, and then Jing Yu will finalize the list, and then contact

Whether the project volume is big or small

However, it is not a big problem to think about it.

Jing Yu is not two years ago now, he is a favorite in the film and television drama industry. Before that, Jing Yu purposely avoided those big-name movie stars in order to control the production cost of the drama, and in order to praise Xia Yining and Yu Youqing.

It doesn't mean that those people don't want to be in Jing Yu's play.

Thinking of the scale of investment in this drama, Cheng Lie's heart became enthusiastic. After all, this is also the most ambitious drama production he has ever taken over.

Soon, two days passed, Saturday in late April.

The day when the fourth episode of Dubo's Apocalypse started broadcasting.
