"Zhuyou, if you need to develop film copyrights, I can help. You know, I am definitely better at this. I have a well-equipped film and television production team, and you have dozens of the hottest IPs at the moment. , as long as you are willing to cooperate, we will definitely be the most suitable combination."

On the other end of the phone, Tukarev worked hard to promote his film and television company.

Since the deeper cooperation with Youxing Electronic Entertainment, the two parties have been very harmonious in terms of adaptation and linkage between film and television games, cooperation in special effects production, and commercial shooting.

Youxing Electronic Entertainment occasionally wants to do some film and television works.

Among them, World War Z, a spin-off of the Resident Evil game, is under the leadership of Tukarev.

But World War Z only released a video trailer, which attracted the attention of countless players, and they all gave a high evaluation in the online questionnaire, and they were willing to spend money to watch it in the cinema.

With these gamers as the foundation, at least this movie can guarantee that it will not lose money, and based on the script he has read and the vision provided by Zhu Youxing, he feels that this will definitely be a blockbuster.

After that, Tukarev began to pay attention to other works of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

But any series of works with one or two branches, such as Castlevania and Contra, will definitely attract many players.

And if Zhu Youxing can let go of his mouth and authorize the film and television adaptations of works such as Mario and Final Fantasy, he probably won't be able to close his mouth even if he can laugh.

It's a pity that Zhuyouxing has always maintained a conservative and cautious attitude towards this, and does not easily authorize the game to adapt the film and television. Of course, if Tukarev intends to adapt the film and television to the game, Zhuyouxing is happy to help.

This is Zhu Youxing's bad work of watching countless games adapted from film and television in his previous life. He really couldn't raise his confidence, so he simply didn't want to use it to ruin his reputation.

But not long ago, Zhu Youxing approached Tukarev, wanting to ask him to help him find some not-too-expensive actors with good acting skills, as well as relatively professional director trainees and so on.

When Tukarev heard these requests, the first thing he thought of was that Zhu Youxing might not want to do it alone, and started the production and distribution of game adaptation film and television by himself.

This made him anxious immediately.

He hoped to persuade Zhu Youxing to let him be in charge of all the process of game adaptation film and television.

He thinks that he is obviously more professional in the film and television industry, and Zhu Youxing has said countless times before that he has a specialization in the art industry, and he will not casually set foot in other industries except for some special circumstances.

Listening to Tukarev's self-promotion, Zhu Youxing understood that he had obviously misunderstood.

"Tukarev, I'm sorry I didn't make it clear just now. I don't want to do game adaptation and film and television business alone. Professional things should be left to professional people. This is what I have always insisted on. I Asking you for some actors, directors, screenwriters and other employees is not for making movies, but for making games.”

"Huh? Playing games?"

Hearing Zhu Youxing's direct confession, Tukarev breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the use of directors and actors to make games also surprised him.

In Tukarev’s view, if there is any necessary connection between video games and movies, it should be simply the adaptation of video games to games, or the adaptation of games to film and television.

After all, he has never seen a video game with a cinematic narrative.

Most of the game works produced by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment before are mainly based on gameplay.

Only the recent Resident Evil and Metroid's latest works have some shadows of cinematic narratives, but in fact they cannot be regarded as a complete body of cinematic narratives.

In Zhu Youxing's mind, the complete body of cinematic narrative should be Uncharted, the later works of Metal Gear Solid, etc., and this time Metal Gear is the complete expression of cinematic narrative games in Zhu Youxing's mind. He wants to Make a full version of the cinematic narrative game.

"Oh, I see, Zhuyou, you want to shoot a game with live action performances, right? You just said no, it's easy, I'll give you a list right now, and on this list are a few of my recommended acting skills. A good actor, they won't ask for too much remuneration if I play the role."

Zhu Youxing shook his head: "No, I don't want to shoot a live-action game, I want to use a brand new technology, that is, motion capture, coupled with cinematic expression techniques, to create a relatively unique movie. I won’t be able to tell you exactly what’s going on for a while, but you can watch it after we actually make it.”

"That's it... that's fine." Tukarev also didn't understand the game, after all, he was not professional in it, and he valued the cooperation with Zhuyouxing and the dozens of games he owned. popular IP.

He has reason to believe that as long as one of these IPs is produced, and the quality of the production is not too bad, it will definitely be able to seize some film and television markets.

Zhu Youxing didn't think about making it himself, so don't worry too much. He believes that if Zhu Youxing really wants to find someone to cooperate with in filming and adapting the film, then he will definitely be the first choice.

After all, the relationship between the two parties is here.

"What kind of actors do you want, and what level does the director want, I can get you, and how long do you need to use these actors and directors."

Zhu Youxing paused and then said: "I hope these people can become my long-term employees in the future and serve my future game development."

Tukarev was just about to take out a paper to write down Zhu Youxing's request, but he was stunned again after hearing Zhu Youxing's words.

"Long-term employee? Zhuyou, didn't you just find a director and actors to play a game? I thought..."

Zhu Youxing said: "I really want to create a brand new game development system, which is the film narrative system I just mentioned. There are majors closely related to film and television drama shooting, and at the same time, the mastery of game development is also necessary. Indispensable, so I am not looking for directors or actors who have been famous for a long time. It is impossible for such people to give up their current status to dabble in a new and unknown industry. Some people who are trapped in the status quo, can you probably understand?"

"Honestly, I'm going to be confused by you, but I don't think it's a big deal."

Tukarev thought about it carefully, and then continued: "Speaking of which, I may really have a few recommended candidates, which should be suitable for your standards."
