Chapter 198 The State of the Studio

After listening to Gao Qiyu's evaluation, Mu Bai smiled slightly and said, "This is just a small fragment, and there is still a long way to go from a complete song.

"I still have many such small fragments, such as this one:"

Mu Bai played the guitar again, but this time the style of music was completely different from last time, obviously it was a love song style.

He sang: "It turns out

love did not abandon me
your love will get me drunk
I don't care. "

This is Billie's "Dear John", which is also a song that Mu Bai likes very much. After "Travel" is released, he plans to change the Chinese name of this song and release it.

The breathtaking melody came to an abrupt end, making both Gao Qiyu and Miao Xiaole scratch their heads.

It's like a teenager with internet addiction whose computer was confiscated by his parents.

Mu Bai spread his hands helplessly: "Now they are just small fragments, and there is still a chance to become a song."

Gao Qiyu hurriedly asked, "What opportunity?"

Mu Bai replied in his heart: "The opportunity for copying."

He said in his mouth: "Sometimes when I wake up, I suddenly find more inspiration, so a song can be written quickly. Sometimes the mood is suddenly filled with various emotions, and there will be a lot of inspiration."

Mu Bai has never experienced the process of creating songs, but he guesses that it should be similar to painting, and only when inspiration comes can he draw a good work.

He Cong commented: "This is a physique that God has given me to eat!"

Everyone smiled and nodded, agreeing with Brother He's evaluation.

Kang Hao smiled and said, "Why don't I have this physique?"

Let’s talk about it, it’s already late at night, everyone packed up the dining table and went back to their rooms to rest.

Mu Bai and Qi Heng chatted until very late, and fell asleep while chatting.

The next day, Mu Bai and Qi Heng got up early and greeted everyone. Before the new guests arrived, Mu Bai had breakfast and left the shooting scene.

After being sent to the airport by the car of the program group, Xiao Ai and Zheng Huancai reunited with Mu Bai.

As soon as they met, Xiao Ai smiled and said to Mu Bai: "You performed well. The director called yesterday and said that I would invite you to the show again after a while."

The three of them returned to Weicheng Mansion together, and without much rest, Mu Bai was arranged to appear on other variety shows.

Those variety shows are all indoors, chatting, playing games and so on.Regardless of whether there is an old artist or not, Mu Bai is always good, and the hosts of the show have a high evaluation of Mu Bai.

Not only Mu Bai has been on entertainment shows, but also Gu Boying.However, Gu Boying is already considered a well-known singer, and her shows are generally at a higher level than Mu Bai's shows, so the two of them never met on the show.

Even though the two of them have been working hard to promote "Simple Happiness", in the end the song still ranked fourth on the "New Chart". It is a pity that the journey in April ended, and it failed to contribute to Gu Boying's "Domination Chart". "make a contribution.

Knowing that Mu Bai "has something in his stomach", Gu Boying is not in a hurry, and will wait until June or July for new songs.

As expected by Shesheng's executives, many songs from "Zhou Jinwen Zhan" were released in May, which made the music stars in May shine brightly, and even had a sense of "strangling the moon".

The decoration of the studio has also been completed, and each team has moved back to the studio to work.

Mu Bai didn't release any new songs in May, so Shesheng didn't arrange a few entertainment programs for him in May, so he moved with everyone.

According to Mu Bai's request, the studio was attached to the inner wall of the warehouse, and a two-story small building was built in the place of the original foam board room.

The first floor is the reception room and two offices, while the second floor is full of offices.

These offices are mainly prepared for financial personnel and Yang Wenjun's subordinates.

As the business scope of the studio becomes wider and wider, a professional team is already needed to operate it.

The central air conditioner is installed in the studio, and I think it can be used just now.

For the large sliding door of the warehouse before, Mu Bai asked the decorator to block it with foam, and then opened three small doors in three directions of the warehouse. From now on, he will no longer be afraid of the cold wind blowing in as soon as the door is opened.

In addition, this renovation also opened several large windows on the one-meter-high wall of the warehouse.

In the past, the studio only had a few windows at the top, and the lights had to be turned on during the day. Now, the lighting in the studio is very good, and it is bright and bright during the day.

As for the studio's business, although the studio has live broadcasts almost every day, the popularity on the website is still getting smaller and smaller.

Fortunately, the electronic version of "Mu Bai Ji" and the first chapter of "Inuyasha" were released on the website in time.The combination of live broadcasts, books, and comics has finally retained more than 34 active users and [-] less active users.

The remaining 10,000+ active users are basically Mu Bai's hardcore fans, or fans of comics.

For this result, Mu Bai is already very satisfied, some websites have accumulated this amount of traffic for several years. "Guofengwang" can have such achievements, and it is thanks to "Er Gouzi".

Under Mu Bai's insistence, "Mu Bai Collection" is free for all, but you need to pay for downloading or copying.

It also costs [-] yuan to download the full book, which is the same price as the physical book.This is Bai Xiaoliang's suggestion, in order to avoid complaints from those who have bought physical books.

In addition, negotiations with Jiang Zixuan have also begun. By mid-May, "The Transcendence of Life" is expected to be released on "Guofeng.net".

With Jiang Zixuan taking the lead, Mu Bai estimates that many writers will come to seek cooperation from "Guofeng.com" in the future.

After all, this is not the same channel as physical books. Apart from "Guofeng.com", Zhou Guodao also has some literature websites, but they are not popular, and the traffic is not as sufficient as "Guofeng.com".

For now, there is no conflict between the audiences of online books and physical books. The money earned from publishing online is tantamount to the extra money of this book.

The setting of "Inuyasha" is very novel to netizens, and everyone is looking forward to the second episode. However, the speed of Ji Yuanjie's team is limited. According to their current speed, it takes about ten days to draw an episode.

Mu Bai asked Ji Yuanjie to go to school to recruit more part-time jobs. It is best to increase the speed in May, at least one episode a week to attract anime fans.

And the summer vacation will be in June, and it is estimated that many students will go home for vacation, which will be another test for the working speed of the studio.

For this task of Mu Bai, Ji Yuanjie shied away again and again, but in the end she couldn't resist Mu Bai, so she had to bite the bullet and recruit people in the art department, but more than 100 students actually responded.

This made Liu Zhe lament that being good-looking is really an advantage, and he is also quite attractive in school. When he recruited people, he only recruited more than 20 people.

And when they were in groups, most of the boys wanted to go to Ji Yuanjie's group. If Mu Bai didn't let everyone choose freely, Liu Zhe guessed that he would be a bachelor commander now.

Of course, these more than 100 people can't be all. Mu Bai asked Yang Wenjun to combine Ji Yuanjie's opinions and pick ten people to join Ji Yuanjie's group, hoping that they can complete the integration as soon as possible.

The game developed by the studio has also reached the stage of dubbing and soundtracking. Shi Boyang has completed the task assigned by Mu Bai very well, and recruited four students majoring in dubbing, three males and one female.

In addition to Fang Jiao and Zheng Huan, the dubbing of several protagonists was completed, and the dubbing of supporting characters was completed by people from other groups.

The only thing that worries Mu Bai is that Meihao Game Company is still lukewarm about the progress of the studio, and Xu Yuechen, the main person in charge of this game, has not been to the studio until now.

Yang Wenjun asked him to guide the work. He only said that he was very busy and believed in the ability of Guofeng Studio.

Both Mu Bai and Yang Wenjun felt that something was wrong, but they didn't know what Mei Hao was doing, and the production of the game was [-]% completed, so they had to bite the bullet and continue working on it.

The two of them discussed that when the game just started to work, they would quickly take the game to negotiate with Mei Hao, and then they would know what tricks they were playing.

Liu Zhe's group has also made great progress, and the exterior wall of the studio has also been repaired.The main color of the outer wall is silver-gray, so that the color of the mural can be more prominent when painting the mural.

As mentioned before, Mu Bai asked Liu Zhe's team to practice with the outer wall, and at the bottom only draw individual figures, flowers and plants.

Characters like My Neighbor Totoro, Minions, Inuyasha, Pikachu, etc., as well as some characters designed by you during this period, are all objects for everyone to practice.

In two or three days, the bottom layer of the outer wall was fully painted. Mu Bai divided the upper space into two layers and let them continue to paint.

The upper floor is higher than the windows, so scaffolding has to be erected.

Although it is not very high, but for the sake of safety, Mu Bai equipped everyone with a safety rope, so that everyone can fasten the safety rope before they can work, and anyone caught not fastening the safety rope will be fined.

The operation of the studio is in accordance with Mu Bai's requirements, and it is moving forward steadily, but now is the time for the studio to lay the foundation, and there are not many profitable projects.

"Mu Bai Ji" is profitable, but not many people download it.

"Inuyasha" Mu Bai intends to charge after the twelfth chapter, before that, only the download will be charged, and the download volume is very small.

Twelve chapters are probably enough to produce two booklets, and the booklets should be able to make a relatively small amount of money, but it will take June and July to see the money.

Fortunately, after the studio paid for the decoration fee, there were no major expenses, and the money on the books was enough to operate for a period of time.

In addition, Mu Bai's personal income this month is not bad, the first is the 20 advertising fee of Hongyu Food Company.

According to the contract signed last year, the annual ownership of "Quiet Night Thoughts" is 50 yuan, but the food company paid 30 yuan in advance, and the remaining 20 yuan will be credited in May.

The second payment is She Sheng's salary. Although "Simple Happiness" is the fourth in the "New Chart", some "Wen Zhan" songs have already been released in April, so the number of downloads is reasonable.

The income from several songs adds up to more than 150 million.

The third amount of money was earned from the sale of physical books of "The Collection of Mu Bai" and "The Transcendence of Life".

The three sums of money add up to 90 million, plus the deposit of more than 300 million, Mu Bai also has a lot of liquidity in his hands.

If the studio's money is tight, he can continue to inject capital.

When Mu Bai was discussing financial issues with Yang Wenjun, Wu Jun came over and said that the three engineers from Qi State wanted to talk to Mu Bai.
