Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

In the following week, the box office of Girls Who Leapt Through Time gradually weakened, and the total box office basically slowed down completely after breaking through 500 million.

After all, it wasn't a big-budget movie, and Jing Yu didn't take part in it, so the movie-watching enthusiasm for this movie was also cooling down.

The time has entered August, and Destiny Guardian Night has also been broadcast to about the seventh episode, and the plot is basically on track.

The main line of the work became clear, and Kotomine Kirei once again appeared as the protagonist's enemy in this work.

For a while, there was no news about the TV drama industry and the movie industry in the entire Great Week.

Late August passed and time passed to early September.

Because of previous experience, before the broadcast of the Fate Guardian Night TV series, Jingyu cooperated with some peripheral manufacturers and distributors in Dazhou. Before the Fate Guardian Night was over, the peripherals of the work began to be sold.

A certain number of sales links posted on the official website of Bluestar Film and Television Culture Company were sold out, and some offline sales channels were also caught by fans who went to camp before dawn. The direct consequence of the shortage of supply was the scalpers Appeared. Things that cost hundreds of dollars were hyped into thousands of dollars.

Jing Yu was also a little confused about this. Although he asked his subordinates to deal with this matter quickly, the production capacity is really not particularly easy to control.

"It feels like the people of Dazhou are gradually becoming homebound!"

Jing Yu looked at the weekly newspaper sent by his subordinates, thoughtfully.

After his works became popular, TV drama fan groups such as Da Zhou also gradually showed the trend of Jing Yu's previous life as a group of nerds. Although the themes of the works are different, the plot has basically remained the same, which has an impact on the audience. Also similar.

In the previous life, there were many variety shows in Huaguo, and the people of Huaguo were chasing stars, anime was popular in Japan, and there were only a bunch of abandoned houses. Jing Yu couldn't decide on these things.

However, the fan group Zhai Xianghua has actually increased the sales of peripheral products of his works. Compared with the works of last year and the year before, this year's revenue from peripheral products of Destiny Guardian Night may be more than doubled. To make money, the company used to have few works, and even if it had peripheral sales revenue, it would not earn a million dollars a month, but now it has more than a dozen works working together, and the various copyright income of old works and new works add up. It is more than tens of millions.

"As expected, the end of the universe is IP!" Jing Yu let out a long breath.

In Jingyu's previous life, many creators did not have a new work a year, so they lived on dividends from old works, like Yu-Gi-Oh Dragon Ball. For decades, the author's annual income is tens of millions or hundreds of millions.

In the previous life, companies like Nintendo made a lot of money just by relying on the copyright fees of old works, not to mention that their new IP development capabilities are also top-notch in the industry.

Jing Yu's expectations for the development of his Blue Star Film and Television Company are naturally the same.

The development of works like Initial D, eva, and Destiny Guardian Night are far from over, but take your time, at least you have to wait until the industry develops to a suitable level before releasing suitable works.

In the afternoon, Cheng Lie presided over a meeting of various departments of the company. As the chairman of the company, Jing Yu only attended, and Cheng Lie was doing all the presiding work.

Now that the time has entered September, and there is only the last quarter of this year left, since Jing Yu has no idea about the winter market, it just so happens that some of the newcomers recruited by the company can also come in handy.

It is impossible for a company with hundreds of employees to rely on Jing Yu to support all of them. From scripts, to actors, to music, to auditing, if Jing Yu leaves, the company will not be able to produce profitable works. It can show that the company's structure is definitely unreasonable.

The company meeting basically passed the production plan of the two new dramas, and confirmed the launch time of Voice of the Stars and Garden of Words.

Jingyu's other two works, Castle in the Sky and Your Name, have already been confirmed not to be released within this year. Castle in the Sky is expected to be released during the Spring Festival, which will be directly squeezed into the Spring Festival schedule, and Your Name is It will be released on New Year's Day at the end of the year.

In other words, from September now to December at the end of the year, Jing Yu's works will only have these two short works to meet his fans.

The meeting confirmed these contents very quickly, and Jing Yu also carefully looked at the project proposal for the new work submitted by his subordinates. To be honest, in terms of the subject matter of the work, it really gave Jing Yu a refreshing feeling.

"It's another long gap!"

After the meeting, Cheng Lie also relaxed a little.

The box office results of Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Space are absolutely excellent, and the ratings of Destiny Guardian Night are also top-notch. Jing Yu can rest as much as he wants for the rest of this year, and so can he.

Except that he would take Jing Yu's works very seriously, for fear of smashing Jing Yu's brand name, Cheng Lie, the company's employees, was not in the mood to pay attention to them one by one.

After all, Jing Yu has become the legendary screenwriter and actor of Dazhou. He Cheng Lie is not also a legendary producer and company partner in the film and television drama industry now, and he certainly does not think that he is in charge of everything big and small in the company.

"How long are you going to rest this time?" Cheng Lie asked.

After some operation, the company's copyright value of various works produced in the past, and the book cash alone have risen from the early two billion at the beginning of the year to nearly three billion now.

Just like this, most of Evangelion's earnings have not yet been credited to the account. If it is credited, the company's cash flow will be more abundant.

The main reason is that at the end of last year, Destiny Zero’s broadcast income, copyright income, peripheral income, and Destiny Guardian Night game income were too huge, plus the long-term income of Jing Yu’s previous works, it can be said that the company founded by Jing Yu has only been established for a few years , If you want to talk about its high status in the industry, it is not enough, but when it comes to money, there are really few companies that can catch up.

In terms of Jing Yu's current wealth and status, once he starts to relax, it is normal for him not to produce a work for a few years. After all, it is rare for such a rich person to work hard.

When Cheng Lie asked this question, besides asking about Jingyu's future plans, he also had a solid foundation in his mind so that he could arrange the company's follow-up development direction.

"Don't worry, I'm not ready to retire yet. You're only thirty years old." Jing Yu said with a smile, but in the middle of speaking, he also felt a little melancholy.

It's been so long since I came to this world!

Think about it, in the past few years, from a small employee of a TV station to today, a lot of works have been filmed, and a lot of money has been made.

"You don't have age anxiety, do you?" Cheng Lie joked.

"That's not the case, it's just that I was a third-year person last year. After next year, I'm going to be a fourth-year person." Jing Yu laughed.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it, back to the topic, I'm only 30 years old, I'm not ready to retire yet, your name will be released on January 1st, and Sky City will be released during the Spring Festival at the end of January. Before that, the company will launch next year Projects and plans for my work, I'll figure it out."
