Chapter 1: Parallel Worlds

Next Chapter

Midsummer, Egawa.

Outside an industrial park on the outskirts, an orange scooter deftly navigates the curve and finally stops in front of a security booth called Pengda Toy Factory.

Meng Lang parked the car, took off the key, and looked up at the four big characters of "Pengda Toys" on the top of the factory, feeling uneasy.

It's been almost a month since I traveled to this parallel world!

In the past month, Meng Lang's mentality has changed dramatically from panic and anxiety at the beginning to surprise and ecstasy later.

He was originally an ordinary TV drama director, and he thought that he would please investors in this life, and he would finish filming the drama and tearing the devil, but he didn't expect to cross over!

Probably because he accompanied the producer to drink too much, and the street lights flickered on and off that night, so he didn't check for a while and stepped on a piece of melon skin...... The back of the head hit the ground and hit the sharp brick that shattered a corner of the roadside......

Waking up from his daze, he was stunned to find that he had actually traveled to a young man who had just graduated from a parallel world.

The young man has the same name and surname as him, also called Meng Lang. I just graduated from the computer science department of Gangcheon University, and I am about to go home to inherit my father's toy factory.

In a month's time, Meng Lang sorted out his current social relations, and also inquired about the difference between this world and the earth through the convenient Internet.

To put it simply, this world is consistent with the earth in every aspect, except for the literary and artistic world......

Through Internet searches, Meng Lang was surprised to find that the literary works, film and television works, and animation works that should have appeared on the earth were all gone!

What surprised him even more was that because of the changes in the world, the world attaches great importance to intellectual property rights. The piracy industry has been hit hard and has now disappeared.

This is destined to be a copyist!

When he found out this information, Meng Lang had only one idea in his mind, that is, to use the countless classic works in his mind to be a porter of literature, film and television works, and become a great writer and director who has attracted much attention!

But when he was ready to put his ideas into action, he found an embarrassing problem.

The premise of the copyist is to remember everything in the original world, including copying books, songs, and scripts word for word.

Can...... He can't remember!

Let's talk about copying books, there are so many online novels that I have read in my memory, but he can only remember the general plot of the story, and he can't copy them in full.

The picture of the protagonist's divorce was stunned in his mind, and he couldn't hold back a few words after ten times.

The road of copying books is not hopeful, but what about copying songs?

"What? Do you have to learn staves?"

Meng Lang instantly dispelled the idea of copying songs, in fact, he really wanted to learn music, with the background of so many classic songs in his memory, as long as he learned it, he should be able to create a divine comedy.

The problem is that the income from copying songs is too small, and the five tones are not complete when you sing it yourself, and you have to find a Bole to sell songs, otherwise it is purely cheap.

After thinking about it, Meng Lang finally determined the direction of his own copying!

Copy the script! Copy the classic film and television works of the previous life! Write and direct yourself!

This is his old profession, and although he is a director, he is not ignorant of screenwriting. After all, many times, it is not the screenwriter himself who can understand the script best, but the director who turns the words into pictures.

It is not difficult for Meng Lang to copy the script, after all, he has seen a lot of film and television works, even if he can't copy it at the pixel level, at least it is not a problem to get a similarity of more than 80%.

After deciding to copy the script and take the road of "great director", Meng Lang began to think about what script was the most suitable to copy.

Movie?

He has also seen movies in this world, and the level is almost the same level, not to mention beating Hollywood. And for the product of the movie, it doesn't matter how the script or plot story is told, whether the promotion can keep up is the top priority.

What if the plot is good? There is no money to invest, no money to promote, and no matter how good the movie is, it can't make a big splash.

Counting on word-of-mouth explosion and then box office rockets?

Come on, whether it is the outbreak of word-of-mouth or the marketing promotion of the water army, how can an insider not be clear.

There may really be movies that break out with word-of-mouth and then counterattack at the box office, but most of the word-of-mouth explosions he knows are because the producers lack confidence in the finished film in the early stage, and rarely decide to test the waters. After successfully testing the waters, he realized that this movie was very likely to be successful, and immediately increased investment in publicity and distribution, creating an illusion of "word-of-mouth explosion".

You can try it when you have money in the later stage of the movie, but now you don't have money.

TV series became Meng Lang's first choice.

The TV series with a large investment must have nothing to do with him, what he thinks is, low cost and high return!

Is there a TV series like this?

The answer is yes!

"The copyright protection is perfect, and the film and television derivatives industry is definitely going to be a head!"

After learning that the copyright protection in this world is extremely perfect, and the piracy industry has been directly destroyed by heavy punches, Meng Lang has already selected three target scripts that are most suitable for him!

"Balala Little Demon Fairy"!

"Fire Boy King"!

"Bakugan Kid"!

As for why these three domestic Wumao special effects dramas, the reason is very simple.

The cost is low, the income is high!

The low cost is easy to understand, after all, they are all children's special dramas, and the actors all invite little hairy children, and the salary is not used for hundreds of thousands. You don't need five cents for special effects, just three cents.

I am afraid that it is difficult for ordinary people to understand the high income, but the "family business" is Meng Lang of the toy factory, and he has a deep understanding of the world's film and television derivatives market.

Meng Lang's father, the owner of Pengda Toy Factory, said such a sentence to Meng Lang.

"Making toys is a loss, people don't give anything, just authorize an image, we toy manufacturers make toys, no matter what the cost price is, we have to share the money according to 20% of the selling price......"

Take the fist product of Pengda Toy Factory, Kitaro dolls, for example, the cost price is 10 yuan each, and the retail price is 30 yuan!

And what about the Pengda Toy Factory?

A doll with a cost price of 10 yuan, counting the expenses of channels, transportation, taxes, labor costs, etc., a doll with a retail price of 30 yuan has a net profit of less than 5 yuan!

A world without piracy!

Meng Lang saw this and decided to make these three children's special dramas.

"Bakugan Kid" and "Balala Little Demon Fairy" have too many special effects, even if they all use five-cent special effects, it is a huge expenditure.

After all, it's still the best in "Fire Boys"! Yoyo add a little glare, get an embarrassing narration, and it's done!

Filming TV series doesn't make money, just to make friends, it doesn't matter if you watch it or not, as long as you buy my yo-yo, then we are brothers!

Thinking of this, Meng Lang made up his mind, took the script of "Fire Boy King" that had just been released in his hand, and walked in.
