Feature Shows Extravaganza

March is coming to an end.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Duel City has been successfully completed and is about to start its second round of replays. Resurrection of Ancient Titans also topped the box office for two consecutive weeks, with domestic box office exceeding 800 million.

One billion is basically no suspense!

Considering that this movie still has more than half a month left in its release cycle. With fans so enthusiastic, the domestic box office of 1.5 billion is definitely stable.

The domestic box office is encouraging!

But in foreign markets, the performance is...

Depressed as always!

The performance of important ticket positions such as North America, Neon and Europe is not very good. Audiences in these countries are not very enthusiastic about the Ultraman movie.

They are even more looking forward to Sentai the Movie!

On the last Thursday of March, PD North America President Kent and Lebao President Du Fang jointly wrote an email and submitted it to Meng Lang.

They made a suggestion.

In order to expand the influence of IP and increase the market share of toy derivatives. The headquarters should pay attention to the development of overseas IP and constantly introduce new products.

After all, the cultural background is different...

Meng Lang sighed and said, Thunder Puppet, Golden Armor and other works have launched global promotions, but they have achieved little success.

Cultural export is difficult to do.

Take Thunder Puppet as an example. It has been well received in Greater China, with good reputation and market success. It is definitely a successful work.

But in the eyes of foreigners...

I can only watch this drama as strange, and I can't understand the cultural background at all. I don't understand the essence of the story either.

What do foreigners like to watch?

Focusing on this issue, PD sent a number of business backbones to conduct multiple visits and surveys.

Finally come to a conclusion!

Hero themes are very popular overseas, but the heroes they like are more those with American experience and thinking.

I know this, a superhero!

Meng Lang nodded and said: The comics and animation industries in Europe and the United States have created many classic heroic characters. We can also learn from them and make a special hero for Europe and the United States!

Mr. Meng, do you have any ideas?

A little……

Meng Lang explained: How about we make a Spider man?

Spider man?

Spider...Spider-Man?

Kent in the video asked curiously: Is there a superpower with spider powers?

That's right!

Meng Lang made a fussing gesture and said, A spider superman who can spit out spider silk and swing on high-rise buildings.

cool!

Kent imagined the scene in his mind and said with joy: This setting is so interesting! Young people will definitely like it!

That's for sure!

American comics have been popular in Europe and the United States for many years, and have gained a large number of young fans. What they rely on is an interesting super power setting and an American male protagonist, isn't it?

In the depths of the distant universe, there is a spider star. There was a human kingdom there that believed in spiders, but evil cosmic invaders destroyed the planet.

After the home planet was destroyed, the prince of the Spider Star came to Earth in an aircraft. Using the Spider Star artifact, he transformed Peter, an ordinary young man from Earth, into a Spider Man with spider superpowers!

After experiencing difficult battles, Peter eliminated the invaders and successfully protected the peace and tranquility of the earth. The prince of the Spider Star also left the earth. He is going to rebuild his hometown...

This story sounds familiar!

Kent scratched his head and said, If you change the setting, wouldn't it be a replica of Super Sentai and Kamen Rider?

That's for sure!

They are all the offspring of Aunt Azuma. The production team of Four Hundred Aunts was originally drawn from Super Sentai and Kamen Rider.

So, the style is very weird.

However, weirdness is weird. The 400 Mom ​​is, after all, a live-action Spider-Man work approved by Stan Lee, and its legitimacy is unquestionable.

This is also the funniest Spider-Man.

Meng Lang wanted to know what kind of response Kent would get if he created Four Hundred Aunts?

Rave reviews?

Still getting bad reviews?

Anyway, his advice has been given. As for whether Kent adopts it or not, and if there are any adverse reactions after adopting it, it has nothing to do with Meng Lang.

Just after sending Kent away, Meng Lang connected to Bai Cang's video and asked about the latest progress of Kamen Rider Ryuki.

good!

Bai Cang smiled brightly and said: Although the response is not as good as Kuuga, the ratings are pretty good. More importantly, the toys are selling extremely well!

rash:……

Is the PD really just trying to get money per capita?

I haven't seen him so happy when the ratings exploded. I haven't seen him so happy when Kuuga won the Nebula Award. Instead, the toy was a hit and made him smile from ear to ear?

Top ten employees, Shirakura-chan!

Are the toys selling like hotcakes?

Meng Lang asked curiously: It should be the credit of the card, right? The belt alone certainly can't sell so much!

President, you guessed wrong!

The most sold item this time is the belt, followed by the cards and cassettes.

Why?

Meng Lang wondered: One belt is enough for each person, but buying one card is not enough. No matter how you think about it, it should be the cards that sell more, right?

If there is only one knight, then your guess is correct. But there are far more than one knight in the Dragon Rider!

This...this is true!

The unit price of the belt is high, and selling one belt is equivalent to selling N cards. There are so many types of belts in Dragon Rider, and collecting them all is indeed more expensive than buying cards.

That's right, President!

Bai Cang suddenly remembered something and asked: I have made preparations here. How is the production progress of that battle royale game?

Wait a minute! Let me ask for you!

In the video conference, Meng Lang connected to the video of Zhou Shixin, the new president of PD Games, and asked him about the development progress of the game.

It's already taking shape!

When participating in a video conference for the first time, Xiao Zhou didn't even turn on the camera to beautify his face. He seemed extremely reserved under Mr. Meng's grand beauty.

In two days, we will invite a group of anchors and fans to conduct a week-long public test. If there are no vicious bugs in the test, it will be available for pre-sale in mid-April.

very good!

Meng Lang nodded and said: Then what... I am also a Big Bird anchor, and my gaming skills are pretty good in the Chinese server. Test the activation code, remember to send me a copy too!

Zhou Shixin: ...

Don't you blush when you say this?

If it weren't for the fact that you are the boss, you would have been banned long ago because of your crazy bad mouth in the PD League, being reported countless times every day, and asking for a power coach every week!

It’s hard for him to do, too!

Give Mr. Meng the activation code. I don’t know what kind of trouble this guy is going to cause. He might mess up the game.

Don't give it...

Is he still a CEO?

After much thought, Xiao Zhou finally gave in and agreed to send Mr. Meng a test activation code. After all, the year-end bonus is still very nice.

But he has a condition!

When Meng Lang participates in the test, he must start a live broadcast to increase the popularity of the game and attract the attention of more passerby players.

It's about advertising, I understand!
