Chapter 67 IP Fever

Time rushed to the end of January of the following year.

The project of the second season of "Full-time Master" has already been completed and has been delivered to Lewen Group.According to Le Wen's plan, the second season of "Full-time Master" will be officially launched during the Spring Festival.

In fact, speaking of it, the second season of "Full-time" has already been skipped.At that time, the contradiction between Le Wen and the two producers before and after caused the second season, which should have been launched long ago, to be seriously delayed, so we had to make a special episode to deal with it.

However, Fan Zhe is happy to see the results. If there is no such thing, this project will have nothing to do with him.

At present, all the strength of 'Dimension Entertainment' is put on the animation production of the second season of "Special Events Task Force", which also makes the progress of this project fast.

Fan Zhe originally estimated that it would be good if the second season of "Task Force" could be completed in March, but it seems that it will not be long before the end of the year.

So far, the animation copyright sales of the two seasons of "Task Force" have brought a total revenue of 500 million to Dimension Entertainment.

Coupled with the production cost of "Full Time", the financial pressure of the entire company has been properly resolved.

According to the agreement between 'Dimension Entertainment' and Station B and Penguin Video, they are required to complete the promotion and release of the animation of the second season of "Special Events Task Force" before mid-March.

And by then, 'Dimension Entertainment' should have already started the production and negotiation of the third season.

The price obtained in the third season will definitely not be lower than that in the second season.

Dimension Entertainment has entered the right track of healthy development, and the development speed is very fast.

Now what Fan Zhe has to consider is the development of his next work.

It is always bad to sit on a mountain and eat empty space.

Now, 'Dimension Entertainment' is quite rich.

After the delivery of "Full-time", the follow-up 600 million production fee has also arrived, and the remaining 100 million will not be settled until the work goes online; the 300 million for the first part of "Task Force" has already arrived, and the second season For 1000 million, a 30.00% deposit has already been deposited into the account.

Adding in the money that can be earned in the third season of "Task Force" in the future, as well as the income from the special effects production project of "Phantom Wars" that may be won...

The cash flow of 'Dimension Entertainment' should be relatively healthy, at least the previous financial crisis has been properly resolved.

In the foreseeable future, at least six months to a year, there should be no shortage of funds for the company's normal development and project development.

When you have money, you have to think about how to spend it.

Fan Zhe already has a general idea - to buy the copyright.

Ever since the concept of 'IP' became popular, this thing has become completely popular.

A work, from novels to comics, animation, to film and television... the development of full copyright can maximize the commercial value of a series.

On a global scale, the most successful thing to play with this thing is undoubtedly the superheroes of Marvel.Starting from "Iron Man" in 2008, until now, the total box office of Marvel's superhero movies has exceeded 140 billion US dollars. Including a large number of peripheral developments, the commercial value of superheroes is inestimable.

For the time being, Fan Zhe is not yet able to play such a big game, but he quite agrees that IP adaptation will become the main force in the creation of future entertainment products.

With money in hand, buying a copyright should be reliable.

With the 'dimension' system, Fan Zhe has the ability to put any work on the small screen or the big screen. The only difference is, is the original work suitable for adaptation?Is there potential for adaptation?

The first thought in his mind was to buy from Lewen Group.

Lewen Group is now the leading content provider in China. It owns two major content platforms, 'Qidian' and 'Penguin Reading', and there are countless excellent novels.

In the past, Fan Zhe liked to read novels on Qidian, and his interest in novels was no less than games or movies.Even the time spent reading novels is more than the latter two.

Especially after work, in the busy schedule, it is difficult to spare a whole block of time to watch a one- or two-hour movie, or play a good game.Novels, an entertainment method that can be read at any time and put down at any time, and can be read in fragmented time, are very suitable.

Fan Zhe often reads novels, and can be regarded as a deep fan.In his impression, there are many very good works, and he likes them all.

At the beginning, when reading novels, he often couldn't help looking at some works with his professional eyes.He is an artist himself, so he often imagines what the characters and monsters in the book will look like if they become serious pictures?
Sometimes he himself is not busy, so he will draw some fanart, character design and other things as his own personal practice.

But now, with the 'Dimension' system in his hands, and the 'Dimension Entertainment' he established, although it's only been half a year, he has already shown some strength in development.Then, it is no longer an extravagant hope to turn those works that I liked very much into animations, TV dramas, and movies.

He called Kappa and made some inquiries about several works he really wanted.

He has prepared tens of millions of funds, intending to buy several works to enrich the copyright library of 'Dimension Entertainment'.

However, some offers from Kappa poured some cold water on him.

"What? The film and television copyrights of "Martial Arts Master" and "The King of the World" cost 1000 million yuan each? Isn't it full copyright? We have been working together for more than half a year, Kappa, why are the prices so high!"

"Don't complain." Kappa said, "That's the price. Besides, don't you guys do animation? Isn't it enough to buy animation copyright? You have to ask for full copyright. Just buy an animation copyright, I decide, Two packages of 300 million will be sold to you."

Fan Zhe sneered, and said, "You think I'm stupid? After you buy it, make it into an animation, and then you follow behind without making money for nothing?"

It is a well-known fact that animation does not make money. "Special Events Task Force" doesn't count, look at "Full-time Master", the animation of the first season is so popular, with nearly [-] million views, isn't it still barely recovering the cost?
Animation has become popular, and other copyright developments that follow behind are the big ones.

Spend money to buy an animation copyright, and then make the animation popular and watch Lewen hold other copyrights and reap the profits later?

Fan Zhe doesn't do this kind of thing.

"Hey..." Kappa laughed a little over there, and then said: "Or we can use the cooperation method, you shoot things, we are responsible for publicizing, and the proceeds will be counted when the time comes."

"Wait until I think about it."

　Ask for a recommendation ticket! ! !
