Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

Jing Yu looked at the market research on the work of Destiny Zero in his hand, and fell into thinking.

As he expected, the discussion of this fantasy battle drama is much higher than his previous works.

And in the audience, many people have already started to make their own cosplays about Arturia and the glittering gold.

Although Jing Yu felt it was weird, it was obviously a live-action TV series and some people imitated it, which was not the same as the cosplay in his impression.

But after thinking about it, in Douyin’s previous life, there were cosers of the TV drama version who did some Bu Jingyun’s shopping in the vegetable market with a chicken in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. It’s not surprising that Nie Feng’s coser raised sheep.

But anyway, this kind of phenomenon is what Jing Yu wants to see.

For a work like I want to tell you, the ratings are high, and the topicality after broadcasting is great, but after a long time, the audience will gradually forget about it, that is, the hot topic will not last too long.

This is the influence of the subject matter of the work on the commerciality of the work.

It has been six or seven years since Naruto ended, and its author Masashi Kishimoto still ranks sixth in the income of Japanese manga artists in that year.

Dragon Ball, which has been completed for more than 20 years, is second. Kazuki Takahashi, the author of Yu-Gi-Oh, who also completed it for more than 20 years, earns 600 million a year without doing anything.

To be honest, I really want to tell you that at its peak, it was a romantic romance with a higher level of popularity than these works, but the subsequent commercial benefits between them are very different.

The Fate series is typical of them. Not to mention the commercial value in the Japanese region in the previous life. Even Jingyu’s previous B-war launch has an important relationship with the strong revenue of the fgo mobile game. A mobile game supports the website. half of the revenue.

This kind of profit cannot be achieved even if Jing Yu took out ten works that I really want to tell you.

Otherwise, he would not pay so much attention to the manga series of the Fate series. For Jing Yu, the Fate series may not be more classic than the soul of chess and the initial D, but the problem is that the former is more commercial than the latter two. times.

"Well, I feel that the publicity is still not strong enough." Jing Yu said to Cheng Lie after reading the materials in his hand.

"Let's add some more publicity funds."

"Understood. It's just that the ratings of Destiny Zero and the number of views on the video site are already the highest works in the same period. With additional funds for publicity, the improvement of this work may not be too great." Cheng Lie reminded.

"You don't need to calculate those things. Even if some people are not affected by this wave of publicity, it doesn't mean that our actions are useless. After all, there are still a series of games waiting for them, so it should be publicized in advance. "Jing Yu said with a smile.

"By the way. How about the acquisition of the game company?"

"We negotiated with four small game companies and one medium-sized company in the Modu area. The five companies have no debts, and the employees in the company are all excellent people in the industry. After accepting them, they can immediately produce games for us according to our needs." When Cheng Lie mentioned this, he immediately got excited.

Game adaptation of TV series.

This kind of model is basically played by no one in Da Zhou, but who is Jing Yu?

Having been with Jing Yu for so many years, to be honest, he also has a kind of confidence in Jing Yu.

"After the acquisition of these five companies, they will be integrated and merged into one company. I think it can meet our production needs."

Upon hearing this, Jing Yu nodded.

Dazhou is just beginning to sprout in the Internet now, and the game industry is actually like that. There are only a few companies that make money, and there are too many small and medium-sized companies that have to disband if a work does not sell well, and the prices are not expensive.

Adding up these five companies, Jing Yu's acquisition price is only in the early 200 million.

Basically, it is to buy the personnel organization structure and some equipment of other companies. To be honest, the price is a bit high.

However, Jing Yu can be regarded as a small local tycoon after the funds from many previous works have been credited to the account one after another.

This level of investment is nothing to him now.

"Then arrange your time. I don't want to make it too troublesome. As for the price, if you can talk about it, you can talk about it. If you can't talk about it, let's just leave it at that," Jing Yu said.

"Time is far more valuable than the gains from bargaining."

After all, Destiny Zero is currently on the air, and it is estimated that this work will continue to be popular for a long time after it airs.

Jing Yu had to hurry up and develop the first game of the Fate series before the end of this hot deadline.

Fortunately, Jing Yu is not planning to develop any large-scale games. There may be such a possibility in the future, but for now, it is basically to develop some small and medium-sized games first. The development cycle of those things will not take two to three years. If there are sufficient funds and sufficient personnel Under the circumstances, it may be completed within a few months.

The reason some game players feel that it is not good, and it will take more than a year to develop is the financial problem. The development team often lacks funds and cannot pay wages. Half of the development has to go to the sponsor’s father to waste time. Certainly the development cycle has been greatly strengthened.

But Jing Yu will definitely avoid those things, he has no shortage of funds for the time being, and if there are enough manpower, if the acquired companies are not enough, he can recruit more.

And if all goes well, there will definitely be follow-up developments, such as the fsn plot and the fgo plot Yu may not be made into a TV series, but there is a high probability that it will be made into a game.

As for the possibility that this series of works will not go well. Judging from the current broadcast situation of Destiny Zero, it seems to be close to zero.

Cheng Lie walked out of Jing Yu's office feeling a little weird.

A screenwriter who knows musical instruments, music creation, Go, a god-level old driver, and each has excellent actors and god-level screenwriters.

And such a person, at this moment, is preparing to enter the game world.

Cheng Lie really felt that Jing Yu's steps were a little too big.

However, the most profound truth he has learned from Jing Yu's side for so long is that never question Jing Yu's plans and arrangements for his works.

No one knows more deeply than Jing Yu the value of his works.

In the next few days, Jing Yu was busy with the acquisition of game companies.

In fact, with money in hand, these things are relatively easy to deal with. Although Jing Yu doesn't understand, he can ask someone who understands to help with the operation!

Invite a professional legal institution, and then invite some professional acquisition companies to negotiate.

It can avoid almost all pitfalls. If you are still trapped in this process, the reason is basically that you are not willing to spend money. You hired a bastard, or you were framed by someone else, so for safety reasons, you still have to Ask a third-party guarantee company to supervise the series of operations.

After all, he didn't want to get into some weird troubles out of nowhere.

Of course, during this process, Jing Yu also had to think about his next work after Destiny Zero.

After all, they have already broken away from the shackles of the TV station and become their own boss. If Jing Yu only wants to be a rich man with so many excellent works in his hands, then he has already achieved this goal.

Starting from his current age, if he does not do anything, he deposits his money in the bank to collect interest, and then collects the copyright fees of his own works every year. The sum of these incomes is enough for him to live his life richly.

But he is definitely not so salty, not only because there are hundreds of people under him to support, but the most important thing is that he is not only pursuing such a little.

After all, the Great Zhou plane is a world with billions of people, and the quality of cultural works here cannot always be at a low level.

In fact, after Jing Yu came to this world, the standards of Da Zhou's film and television dramas that have emerged in the past few years have also changed, and the quality is getting higher and higher.

One day, many excellent creators will be born in this world, and they will create works comparable to those produced by Jing Yu, or even more powerful.

But that may be ten years, twenty years, or even later.

At least in this era, Jing Yu still hopes that he can always be the top group, or even the only one.

It’s like Osamu Tezuka was not necessarily the best and most beautiful anime creator in the history of Japanese animation industry in Jingyu’s previous life, but his status was extremely high because he led the way in that era. industry development.

Jing Yu also thinks that in a few decades, people in this world will view his contribution to Da Zhou's film and television drama industry in this way.

Another weekend.

The air date of the third episode of Destiny Zero.

It was only seven o'clock in the evening, and Meng Jiming was already getting excited.

Although the drama of Destiny Zero has not had too many explosive plots so far.

However, the excellent production of this work and the appearance of a lot of handsome men and beautiful women in the whole play have also successfully stabilized the audience and ratings.

But he is already obsessed with this drama that has only been on the air for two weeks.

Everything started when I watched the first episode of this drama on the introduction of a friend last week.

What he watched was the version on a video website. To be honest, it was just the plot of the first episode, and there was nothing that attracted him at all.

In just one episode, 20 or 30 characters appeared on the stage, and he couldn't remember everyone's name. Although the gimmick of the Holy Grail War was loud, he really didn't seem to have any sense of substance.

But everything changed after he read the background introduction about Artoria in the first episode.

He can say with certainty that he doesn't like any character in this play, including the protagonist Emiya Kiritsugu.

But only Arturia, just looked at the background text introduction and Jing Yu's specially photographed picture of Arturia standing on the hill of corpses with a sword in the dusk with a confused expression.

Meng Jiming is adorable.

This week, he frantically searched the internet for various personas for this character. Whether Jing Yu was interviewed or the information revealed on the official website, he didn't ignore a single detail.

He felt like he was possessed by a demon. He was not chasing stars, and he was not even interested in Tang Rui, who played the role of Artoria. It was just that he had an indescribable liking for this role.

He doesn't know what's going on with this feeling

But if Jing Yu came to him, he would understand that he fell in love with the paper man's wife!

Although the external image of the character is also somewhat important, but in fact the proportion is the same.

In Japanese anime, who has a bad style for the two-dimensional characters? But the huge difference in popularity between the characters cannot be explained by such things as exquisite painting styles.

The core of the character is the key. What Meng Jiming likes is not Artoria's appearance as the actor, but the background core of this character.

Last week, the rather suspenseful ending of the second episode of Destiny Zero hung him for a whole week.

Although I knew it was a fictional character, I was still worried that Arturia would be hurt by the ghost screenwriter Jing Yu.

After all, this guy is famous for abusing female protagonists.

Taking a deep breath, Meng Jiming looked at the TV.

The story continues at the end of the previous week, Arturia and the unknown heroic spirit of the spearman rank are preparing for battle.

Conqueror King Iskandar watched the battle from a distance, and the atmosphere was about to explode.

The beautiful young spearman with a tear mole on the corner of his left eye has a natural charm for women, and even said it to Arturia before the battle.

"If you're attracted to me, you can only blame my birth and myself as a woman."

shameless

At this moment, almost all the audience felt this way about this gunman.

"Don't you think that your appearance alone can affect the speed of my sword!"

Artoria's clear expression in eyes and clear answer in voice made the audience including Meng Jiming excited in an instant.

I really want to laugh!

The superior man met such a girl with a sense of justice and a clear heart.

Then there was a fight between the two.

The first battle scene of Destiny Zero's show kicked off at this moment.

(There will be more follow-up, but it will be one hour later.)
