This is a very important strategic step in the game from afar.

Although Legend has a particularly strong ability to attract money, this game is not developed by a distant game company, it is an agent product. And to be honest, the reason why the legend was successful, especially in the mainland, was unprecedentedly successful, and even helped Mr. Chen become the richest man in the country in the last life, not because of how good the quality of this game is. Of course, the game itself is not bad, but overall, the near-milestone success of World of Warcraft, the legend is far from reaching. The reason why it has been able to achieve great success in the mainland is, in the final analysis, because the Chinese people in this era still have a very shallow understanding of online games, and they have never played any games, and even things like computers are still very trendy.

So as soon as the game was launched, it became popular all over the country. In fact, not to mention legends, any game launched in this era, as long as the level is not too bad and the grade is not too low, it can basically attract a large number of players. Players' acceptance of the game is also surprisingly high, even if there are some content in the game that can be called a cancer in the future, players in this era can easily accept it, and the acceptance of imbalances and bugs is also quite high.

For these reasons, the legend was a great success.

But the success of the legend lies in the market, in the player's awareness of the game, and even in the virtue of Altos, but it has nothing to do with Zhou Fangyuan.

Dahua is different, Dahua is the first large-scale game independently developed by Far Away Games, and whether this game can succeed is crucial for Far Away Games. If the game can be successful, it is equivalent to a strong shot in the face to the distant game, and with this booster, the employees of the distant game have the confidence to start a new game development work.

Confidence is the most important thing.

Although there are plants in front, plants are just a small game, and the popularity of the legend doesn't mean anything.

Now Yuanfang Games is developing several games, all of which were directly ordered by Zhou Fangyuan to start developing, and sooner or later his creativity will run out, and it is impossible for the game company to completely rely on his creativity to develop, especially around 17 years and 18 years, his prophetic ability expires, and the future path of the game company is all unknown.

The life of a game is limited, but the life of a game company can be unlimited, and the foundation of distant games is inherently poor, but those large foreign game companies are at least ten years behind, so distant games have to catch up, or even surpass each other - to be honest, this is not difficult, in terms of earning ability, Zhou Fangyuan is now also full of confidence, he is sure that his company will become the most profitable game company in the world, but making money and greatness are not equal. Tencent is very profitable in the future, it is the largest game company in the world, there is no one, but is it great?

No, because it doesn't have any really original games.

In the early stage, it relied on copycats, and in the later stage, it relied on buying, buying, buying, buying, such a company is very powerful, but out of this huge market, what else can it leave?

For a game company to be truly competitive and really stand on its own in the future, in the final analysis, it still has to have its own things.

This is something that distant games don't have at the moment.

But it doesn't matter, Zhou Fangyuan can rely on his own creativity, let Yuanfang Games walk on a road of "independent research and development" for a long time, and cultivate the confidence of employees with success after success. When they have enough confidence, they will naturally stimulate their inner creativity, and at that time, what Zhou Fangyuan has to do is to support and pay money, and use the money to promote the research and development of the game, so that Yuanfang Games can become a truly competitive game company.

This is what Zhou Fangyuan wants to see.

So now the big words are their real first shot, and when they become popular, the seeds of confidence can be planted smoothly. After ten or even more than ten years of hard cultivation, it will one day become a towering tree. It's not a rootless ping, which can't withstand the slightest wind and waves.

Of course, Sun Jing didn't know these thoughts of his, Sun Jing looked at Zhou Fangyuan opposite, and only felt that the growth rate of his beloved was beyond his understanding.

She still remembers that when they first met, Zhou Fangyuan was still a precocious, but still very immature middle school student, and at that time she was only attracted by his plan, so she decided to help him and join his company. But gradually, as she got in touch with Zhou Fangyuan more and more, and got to know her more and more, she gradually fell in love with this little boy, and her confidence and foresight convinced her. And now, Zhou Fangyuan has gone further, and Sun Jing even has some feelings that she can't catch up.

"Xiaoyuan, are you sure?"

Sun Jing asked softly.

"Of course I am sure. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said with a smile.

How could he not be sure? It is not that he does not know how successful the great words of the previous life were.

And in this life, Dahua is even more successful, because with the distant game, with Tenxun, with Blizzard, under the strong combination, the fame of the distant game in China has long far exceeded that of other game companies.

At the same time, the legend is currently very popular in the domestic market, and the number of online users at the same time has reached up to 2 million, which is several times that of the same period in the previous life. Of course, it hasn't been very long since the Legend started charging, but its terrifying ability to absorb gold has already been demonstrated. Up to now, the point card alone has generated tens of millions of revenue for distant games, and the net profit has exceeded 20 million.

Don't forget, this is 01 years, not long after the domestic Internet started, and the first bubble has not yet come, at this time, the average person's monthly salary is only 1,000 yuan, which is a good job. Far games now earn the equivalent of a month's salary for thousands of people every day, which is quite a frightening number.

But this is just the beginning, Zhou Fangyuan knows very well that the legend can help Mr. Chen become the richest man in China in the previous life, and the ability to absorb gold is where it goes. 、

And the big words he likes more are not bad at all, so he is very confident in the big words, and he is also looking forward to the fact that the big words will start to charge officially.

Sun Jing didn't know the specific income of the distant game, but she was naturally very happy to see that Zhou Fangyuan was so confident. What could be happier than having the ability of her beloved? She followed Zhou Fangyuan from the beginning not for money, as a very famous young strong woman in the circle, even if there is no Zhou Fangyuan, she can mix well, I dare not say what kind of rich man she will become, but it is not difficult to earn more than one million dollars a year. Before Zhou Fangyuan was reborn, the annual salary of one million was an unattainable number for countless people, so Sun Jing herself could be successful.

But she is willing to follow Zhou Fangyuan and be the person behind Zhou Fangyuan who supports him, this determination is not something ordinary people can make.

Because she has such determination, she is willing to do it all the time, so when she was ready to meet Beitong until Zhou Fangyuan, she expressed her full support.

"I'd like to go back with you if I could. ”

"Come back with me? why?"

Zhou Fangyuan was stunned when he heard this.

"Why else, I'm now the general manager of Yuanfang Media, I want to make the company stronger, can I always rely on your guidance." I think Blizzard's Warcraft movie is very good, I have an idea now, since the game can be made into a movie, why can't it be adapted into a TV series? The theme of legend is good, and I am also very optimistic about the big words, I want to start a plan to adapt a game to a TV series, although I haven't said hello to you yet, but I want to go over and see if it is feasible, if it is feasible...... I also hope that Mr. Zhou can make it more convenient for you. ”

Sun Jing glanced at Zhou Fangyuan and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Uh...... Well, haha, I was wrong, of course you can go, and it doesn't matter if you don't have any reason...... However, your idea is quite interesting. ”

Zhou Fangyuan touched his chin, and his mind quickly turned in circles.

The adaptation of games into film and television dramas is actually nothing new, at least for him. And the most famous of these may be the fairy sword series, this domestic super IP, the follow-up versions of the game are not to mention one after another, adapted, adapted TV series, especially TV series, filmed several, and the ratings are not bad.

Like adapting a TV series, the game itself has a fixed audience, and it is also dominated by young people - at least at this time, most of these players are young people, and it is not too difficult to make a TV series with in-depth creation and development of the in-game plot. Especially for those games that have been very successful, as long as the level of film and television drama adaptation is not too inferior, the ratings are basically guaranteed.

And in the future, there will also be TV series adaptations of game masterpieces such as Battlefield and Halo, these games have a large number of players around the world, as long as the TV series is not too bad, making money is certain, the difference is only in earning more and earning less.

I have to say, it's a good way to go.

Game adaptation of the movie,To be honest, it's more difficult,After all, the length of the movie is limited.,Two hours of time seems to be continuous.,But if it's really used to tell the story,How much can you say?If nothing else.,Let's talk about the future Warcraft movie.,What does a movie say?Mainly the content of the orc invasion and the first human-beast war.,The result is still chaotic and the plot is broken.,So for the real game masterpiece,The best way to change,It should be a combination of TV series and movies.。 The long plot description can be concentrated in the TV series, and the real climax can be completed with a movie with a larger scene.

In this regard, Marvel is the best company in the world. Although they are comic book companies and have nothing to do with games, this is a very good idea, and Zhou Fangyuan feels that screenwriters, directors and producers in the industry can actually learn from it.

Of course, games like Legend are different from Warcraft, Warcraft has a huge main line, and you can tell the story directly.

The main line of legends and big words is relatively loose, and it is not as core as Warcraft, so if you want to adapt it, you must continue to fill in the plot, and the efforts made by the development team are obviously not enough, but they are not professionals after all, and it is already very good to be able to spread out the plot, and it is really difficult for them to fill in the plot like writing, which is difficult for strongmen.

But this thing, on the whole, is not difficult.

Zhou Fangyuan thought about it, picked up the phone directly, and called his uncle's mobile phone.

Since the uncle completed the ethereal creation, he has started a new creation, but it is still the same sentence, the uncle is suitable for writing, his writing is very good, but his shortcomings are also obvious, that is, lack of creativity. As a result, the second work after that was a little tepid, although the old readers still supported him, but the new readers obviously had little sense of identity with this "great god". This made the uncle very devastated, and later Zhou Fangyuan took action and asked the backstage to forcibly seal the book. Of course, it's not because the content has prohibited content, but he doesn't want his uncle's name as a "great god" to be hit, and would rather let old readers think crankily and erase this "stain".

Later, it was Zhou Fangyuan who proposed to let his uncle engage in some administrative work, after all, he had worked as an editor in a magazine before, and he still had some level in the editing line.

So at present, he is the vice president and second editor-in-chief of the starting point, both of whom are second-in-command, but he has a lot of power, at least he is a close relative of Zhou Fangyuan, and the company's senior management knows his identity, so he is given a lot of rights.

"Xiaoyuan, why did you remember to call me?"

"Uncle, what you said, can't I call you if it's okay?"

"Hehe, have you ever beaten it?"

“......”

Zhou Fangyuan was silent for a moment, "Okay, let's not talk about this matter, uncle, I have something you need to arrange." ”

"Something, let's talk about it. ”

"It's very simple, at the starting point to do an essay activity, the content of the essay is related to the plot expansion of the legendary game, as long as it is in line with the content of the game, you can participate in the selection, your editorial team selects the first, second and third prizes, and set up enough attractive bonuses. ”

"Well,This,Is this necessary?,The game and,It doesn't seem to be a boundary......"

"You're wrong, uncle, it's normal to adapt games...... Okay, let's not discuss this topic, in short, you promote this matter, you don't need to report to me anymore, you can solve it internally, in short, this essay contest is very important, you must take it seriously, I'm not joking, I have a lot of use in the final selection of excellent works. And in the future, there will be more activities of this kind, this time to accumulate experience, next time, next time, in short, this is a big deal, you must not be careless. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said very seriously.

Although he still couldn't figure out what Zhou Fangyuan was going to do, the uncle didn't say anything, but nodded on the other side of the phone to show that he understood.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Fangyuan saw Sun Jing's puzzled gaze on the other side at a glance, and he smiled slightly.

"Don't you want to adapt the TV series? I'm going to prepare a script for you. ”
