Chapter 396: Leading the Way
It was getting late, and the afterglow of the setting sun illuminated a circular pond outside the building.
The campus of Jiangzhou University of Technology is gradually becoming lively, and the students have already finished class. In the office hall, staff members have left one after another and are heading towards the school cafeteria.
In Dai Yunfei's office, Xu Zhengxuan listed his initial experience and put forward some suggestions.
"Yunfei, I came to you today, and there is another important thing to discuss with you, which is the further development of the entertainment industry chain that I conceived before. Li Feng said.
"I knew there was something wrong with you. Dai Yunfei served coffee to Li Feng and Xu Zhengxuan, and asked, "Then tell me in detail, how to build your entertainment industry chain?"
"My idea is to break down the barriers between online literature and online games, and realize the gamification of online works through the operation of copyright. Li Feng said, "So I came here today to discuss with you the feasibility of this model." And I've already brought the first online work that is worthy of copyrightization, which is "God of Infinite War". ”
When Dai Yunfei heard it, he felt that there was a play, and said, "What do you mean, is it to adapt "Wuji God of War" into an online game?"
That's exactly what it means. Many of the movies we see now are based on adaptations, that is, they have a natural attribute, which is the upstream of the entire cultural industry chain. Li Feng said, "It can be said that if you master online literature, you will master the upstream of the entire cultural industry chain, and then you can realize the development of games, comics, film and television through the operation of copyright." Today, I want to take the first step in making the web an online game. ”
"This is indeed a feasible path, the Internet has a certain readership, if you use this to develop online games, then in the early days there may be a certain percentage of readers who choose to try out because of their love for the book, which greatly reduces the development risk of the game. Dai Yunfei said, "And this novel mode of operation can bring eyeball effect, leading the market, creating the current news hot spots, for our hybrid game company and the origin of Chinese.com, can bring benefits." ”
If Xu Zhengxuan's "God of War" really succeeds in gamification, it will undoubtedly play a huge demonstration effect, attracting more authors to gather to the origin Chinese network, because as you know, the origin Chinese network not only brings genuine subscription income to everyone, but also opens up a new channel of copyright operation, providing a more effective way for authors to increase income.
In this way, not only will the authors of his own website not be lost, but more authors of other websites will switch to the origin Chinese network, and Li Feng can even drag down competitors in the market without even using other means.
From the perspective of a hybrid game company, the purchase of online copyrights and the development of online games of the same name is a new trend in the industry, which can attract a lot of attention in a short period of time and make the industry more optimistic about the company's future.
Through this way of creating news highlights, the company can also further strengthen the company's brand and enhance the company's image, so as to obtain better resources in the market.
"Xuan Xuan, how far have you created now?" asked Li Feng.
"At present, it is about 1.2 million words, and we are in the middle of the story, and it is expected that it will take 2.5 million to 3 million words to write the whole book. Xu Zhengxuan thought for a while and said.
"In this way, you still need to work on this film for about a year. Dai Yunfei said, "From the perspective of time, the progress of online game development is just right, and by the time it is over, the online game has basically been developed and can be released." ”
As a loyal reader of "Wuji God of War", Dai Yunfei of course knows that this book is very popular, and at present, there will be no more than three networks comparable to "Wuji God of War" in the entire online literature world.
And this book has accumulated a large number of high-quality reader resources, and buying the game development copyright of this book is equivalent to indirectly buying a large number of fans behind this book, which can save huge marketing costs.
"Yunfei, what do you think?" Li Feng said, "If it's feasible, let's start planning now." At present, the online version of "Swordsman of the Mixed Element" has been almost developed, and the next thing is some tinkering, and the development team has enough experience to devote to the development of a new game. Moreover, the development of online games requires a process of accumulation in the early stage, and for the development of "God of Infinite War", it is also necessary to start early accumulation, and it should be planned as soon as possible. ”
"It's also true that early art creation alone takes months, and if you don't start early, you won't be able to develop the game by the time it's finished next year. Dai Yunfei said, "Well, I'll have a meeting with the company's management to discuss what to do." After we have discussed the plan, we will determine the time to complete the purchase of the game adaptation copyright. Xuanxuan, do you have a psychological price?"
Dai Yunfei also refused to offer the price first, so he waited for Xu Zhengxuan to say that he could take the initiative.
Xu Zhengxuan scratched his head: "Brother Dai, the price of this book is directly related to its popularity, so it is not appropriate to blindly open the price, so let's set the price according to the actual popularity data." So far, the number of hits has reached 2 million, and the number of loyal readers is about 2,000 to 3,000, but this is only two months after the official start of charging. Next, as the number of words increases, the popularity will become more and more popular, and we will determine a reasonable price range according to this trend of popularity growth. ”
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhengxuan, this kid is also a thief, and he did not directly quote his asking price, after all, there is no precedent in the market at present, there is no market to refer to, and the price is determined according to popularity, which is a compromise solution.
It's just that the current popularity is still accumulating, and at the end of a year, it is difficult to predict the popularity at that time, so we can only make an estimate based on the current growth trend.
Xuanxuan is also right, for the current copyright price, everyone has no idea in their hearts, it is better to judge it according to the popularity. Li Feng said, "Yunfei, you also have to study an evaluation mechanism in this regard, as long as your evaluation plan is scientific and reasonable enough, it can even become a reference system for the entire market in the future, so that when you think of copyright operation, you can think of the evaluation plan of the hybrid game company, and you can occupy a greater voice in the market." ”
