On the other end of the phone, Lao Yi smiled wryly, because he thought of the first season of this drama and wanted to co-produce with the starting point, but they refused, and now they ...... But they will rush up and beg for help.

Whoever has tasted this feeling knows.

But he didn't have a choice, because this is the general direction of the company, and even the head office, the group company behind the head office, has spent so many billion dollars over the years, not for the subscription part of the manuscript fee on the website.

To count on the income of the manuscript fee, the group company wants to recover the investment in this area in the past few years, can the big boss live until that day?

Brother Qiang, CEO of the head office, has repeatedly emphasized the general direction of the company in recent years, and Lao Yi recognizes it in his heart.

At least theoretically, it makes sense.

Like Marvel, it is okay to create a few popular movies with a good box office, or a popular TV series, and then choose a suitable time to let the head office go public.

In the past few years, the group company has invested in the investment of online literature, and there is a high probability that the cost will be recovered instantly, and it can earn several times more, or even more.

It's a pity that Brother Qiang has been the CEO of the head office for several years, and the bull of the IP industry chain has also been blowing for several years, but he has only heard thunder and no rain.

There are also a lot of copyrights sold.

But the vast majority of those film and television companies that bought the copyright are just hoarding copyrights, and very few of them are investing in filming immediately, as if they are waiting for others to test the waters first to see if others will drown.

Occasionally, there are those who are bold and dare to invest in shooting, but they also take the shortcut route.

- An unknown little actor, plus an unknown little director, plus an unknown little screenwriter, and five-cent special effects.

After the shooting was made, the discerning person knew at a glance that it was purely for money.

In this environment, what progress can Brother Qiang's IP plan make after talking about the concept for several years?

Just this morning, Brother Qiang called.

It is important to find a way to invest in the second season of "Dead Wishes".

The purpose is twofold.

The first is to make the fame of "The Last Wish of the Dead" a starting point, and even the fame of the entire grand literature.

Second, I just want to make "The Last Wish of the Dead" better through investment and participation, with longer episodes and greater momentum, so that this drama will become a promotional business card of Shanda's literary big IP plan.

To put it simply, Brother Qiang is dissatisfied with the fact that the first season of "Wish of the Dead" only has 14 episodes.

Although the current popularity and reputation of this show are outstanding, there are only 14 episodes, and each episode is still shorter than the traditional TV series.

In this regard, Brother Qiang said no, such a small family is not in line with the temperament of his big IP plan.

Thinking of this, Lao Yi took a deep breath, patiently said, "Salted fish, give me a face! Let's talk about it again......! I said on the phone that it was not very convenient, tomorrow! Tomorrow, I will personally bring someone over to talk to you in detail, what do you think? Can you give me this face?"

This end of the phone.

Sun Quan didn't answer immediately, but deliberately was silent for a moment before saying, "Okay! Since Mr. Yi said so, then I'll wait here! Let's meet!"

Lao Yi: "Okay, okay! Thank you! Then let's say so, we'll come over tomorrow, you're in M City now, right?"

Sun Quan smiled, "Yes, in M City!"

Lao Yi: "Okay, then let's meet!"

Sun Quan: "OK!"

……

After the call, Sun Quan opened the drawer, opened the humidor, took out a cigar, and slowly lit the fire to roast the cigar with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

He doesn't mind starting points, or grand literature getting involved.

Unless he plans not to publish books at the starting point in the future, otherwise, this time he refuses the cooperation of the other party here, and his new book will definitely not be mixed up at the starting point in the future.

After all, the starting point is in charge of each author's recommendation arrangement, and the recommendation is ...... It may not be able to make a bad book popular, but it can limit the popularity growth of any book.

It's a bit of a "I may not be able to make you successful, but I can make you fail".

There are also many ready-made examples.

For example, a bunch of great gods and middle god-level authors who left the digital station a few years ago, and later returned to the starting point, because they could no longer get as many recommended positions as before, and the godhead almost collapsed.

A few years ago, after returning to the starting point, the red blood of the first brother was no longer vigorous, but he could still maintain a certain godhead, and except for him, the other gods who returned to the starting point were basically all shattered into slag.

Therefore, Sun Quan had no intention of really refusing the cooperation of the starting point.

But he has a bottom line in his heart.

For the investment part, a part of the starting point can be allowed, but it can only be a small part, and it is impossible for him to give up the dominance of the drama "Wish of the Dead".

In addition, he is willing to sell less shares, but he wants to get more money.

Think of it as a product placement.

If you can get a lot of money from the starting point and Youku Video, coupled with the popularity and reputation of the first season of this show, before the second season starts filming, you should be able to really pull down some advertising placement fees.

If this is calculated, if the operation is good, maybe before the filming of the second and third seasons starts, he will be able to recover the cost of these two episodes here.

At that time, for the filming of the second and third seasons, his salted fish film and television only needs to produce some manpower, and he does not need to bear the risk at all, and after the production is completed, he just waits for the money.

The deal...... No matter how you look at it, you won't suffer.

Yes!

This time he also intends to agree to the investment request of Youku.

In this way, when the second and third seasons are produced, he will be able to save a lot of effort in terms of distribution and publicity.

As long as Youku Video participates in the investment, he believes that when the content of these two seasons is launched on Youku Video, Youku Video should give a better recommendation.

It's all about interests.

As for eating alone, the final benefit will be higher?

Sun Quan didn't think about it, but he didn't think it was necessary.

Being a human being cannot only focus on immediate interests.

Be!

If he eats alone in the next two seasons, his salted fish film and television should indeed be able to earn more in the short term.

What about in the long run?

After all, his salted fish film and television is a new company.

The qualifications in all aspects are too shallow.

Even if this drama is finished, the qualifications of Salted Fish Film and Television are still very shallow.

Unless he doesn't want to do big salted fish film and television in the future, otherwise, when he makes TV series or movies in the future, he will inevitably invite some famous stars or actors in the film and television industry with good acting skills.

If you make a movie, there is also the problem of distribution.

For special effects, you also need to contact some of the top special effects companies in the industry.

And these, just with the qualifications of Salted Fish Film and Television, are not easy to solve.

But if a good cooperative relationship can be formed through the drama "The Last Wish of the Dead" and Shanda Literature and Youku Video, when Salted Fish Film and Television wants to produce other film and television dramas in the future, many problems that Salted Fish Film and Television cannot solve by themselves are likely to be solved.

Thinking of this, Sun Quan lit his cigar and picked up his mobile phone to dial Xue Zihan's number.
