Sleepy Ye is very similar to Meng Fan in many ways, such as his hobby of two-dimensional culture, such as his rich family background and his own ability to make money, so he is also similar in value orientation, of course, it is precisely because of this premise that he will naturally communicate to the current point because of the understanding of illustration.

Like Meng Fan, the first purpose of throwing money into the animation industry is by no means to make money, as they said when they met last time to discuss the establishment of this studio, the purpose of their entry into this industry is not to share the cake, but to make the cake bigger.

Of course, the cakes are all bigger, and the people who make the cakes can't get the cakes, so they can only blame them for being too useless.

This time, both of them initially spent 10 million yuan as a starting capital - not including the production cost of "Underground Spirit" - the distribution of shares in the studio is very simple, Meng Fan 40%, Sleepy Master 35%, and the five-person team 5% each, in terms of share distribution, Meng Fan and Sleepy Master are very generous, and these five people also enjoy the same remuneration and performance sharing as other members. Of course, there is an agreement that if the team of five leaves within five years, the shares will be recovered.

The primary purpose of the two of them investing money is not to make money, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is for dreams, and in the end, it is naturally for happiness. Everyone has the pursuit of happiness, the poor have the happiness of the poor, the rich have the happiness of the rich, the happiness of the rich can be bought with money in many aspects, and there are many aspects where money is the premise.

Like making animation, Meng Fan and Master Sleepy are willing to pay even time and energy, and they are naturally more willing to pay money.

It's just that in terms of spending money, Meng Fan is obviously much more ruthless than the sleepy master.

The animation of the first season of "Underground Spirit" has been done, and the income is definitely not all attributed to the studio, but at present, the later stage of the first season of "Underground Spirit" is handed over to the studio to do, and the sleepy master does not need to pay separately, but part of the income is to be allocated to the studio.

It is equivalent to the team is still the original team, but the production is cut into two pieces, one is what they originally did, and the other is now contracted to the studio, and then the studio outsources some of it to other studios to do it, such as dubbing to chocolate, for example, the post-production music is handed over to another studio, and most of the songs invited by Meng Fan will be completed over there, and a small part may be done by the singer himself.

Having invited these singers to write songs, and then they may have to invite singers to sing, the studio's investment in the post-production of "Underground Spirit" will be doubled several times.

But it's really cost-effective, and ordinary people don't invite so many well-known singers, and it is also profitable from the perspective of publicity.

Meng Fan is basically from the book for animation production, and there is not much contact with this aspect of things, this time, after talking about the invitation to the song, I listened to the views of the five-person team on the future development, "There is a Spirit Underground" is just the beginning, and there is still a long way to go.

As for "The Strange Man of Mountains and Seas", the agreement has been signed and handed over to Kodansha, and Meng Fan sent a team to cooperate with the past, saying that the cooperation is mainly learning.

In addition, even if the copyright of "Strange Man in the Mountains and Seas" is taken back, if you just rely on the production of this comic, even if you will definitely make money later, it will go against the original intention of Meng Fan and Master Sleepy, this is the act of sharing the cake rather than making the cake.

To make a cake, you have to make other animations.

Of course, this thing will definitely not be done overnight, and Meng Fan doesn't plan to do it in a few years, he still has to take his time, boil slowly, fight slowly, and move forward step by step.

"Iron God. ”

The five-person team continued to be called Meng Fan by the outside world, among which Yang Wuzhen, who was an accountant, finally said after explaining the general plan: "The current priority is to integrate the team, and the five of us need to take another small production to polish the new members, at least we must run in the team before going to Neon, otherwise it will be a little experience to talk about, and it is not meaningful." ”

Meng Fan nodded and said, "No problem." Do you have any of your favorite works? Or should I contact Penguin and ask them to recommend a few of them?"

Yang Wuzhen pushed down his glasses: "Ask the penguin about the animation, even if it is to polish the team, the money that should be earned still has to be earned." You give me your contact information, I'll talk, and I'll make a decision with you after the negotiation is done. ”

Meng Fan gave a thumbs up, he admired Yang Wuzhen Meng Fan very much, he and Master Sleepy are both very open to money, and the other four people are also a driller, there must be such a person who can "calculate".

Of course, Yang Wuzhen is better at his skills.

After chatting for a while, Meng Fan and Sleepy Ye took a team of five and the new members to have supper, and at the same time called Zha Dao and others from the chocolate studio, in addition to hooking up the post-dubbing production, it was also to let the two sides get in touch with each other, and the chocolate still had to be eaten.

Meng Fan took the Coke and touched Director Cha: "Director Cha, how is the voice actor?

"If you come by yourself, the main characters are all together, and the other characters are no problem. Director Cha said with a smile, and then toasted everyone one by one, no matter what the other party drank, he was dry.

Check what nose, I have already sniffed out, the development of the chocolate studio has almost reached a bottleneck now, and he was ready to do it, but the luck of the diamond ring smashed out is really fierce and a little unstoppable!

Whether it is Meng Fan's side eating chocolate or buying shares, it is a great thing for Director Cha, not to mention Meng Fan's dubbing strength, his current popularity, backwater can "sell" the price of oil!

Speaking of which, Director Cha is really grateful for the quarrel with his wife that morning, if it weren't for the grumpy wife who quarreled and liked to lose the diamond ring, how could he know Meng Fan!

After eating supper, Meng Fan called Yixin, explained the situation, and recommended Yang Wuzhen's WeChat to him, and they talked about the rest by themselves.

"Sister, when did you come?"

When Meng Fan returned home, he was startled to see two women wearing masks sitting in the living room, still wearing black masks.

"It's been two days!"

Meng Caiwei cautiously opened her mouth and stuffed a slice of sliced apple, hugging Wu Tong on the side: "You came back from outside, you didn't see Tongtong first, where did you go and come back so late? I also heard Bai Zhi say that you invite songs everywhere, what are you busy with?"

"I'm working at an animation studio. ”

Of course, Meng Fan had already seen Wu Tong when he came back, reached out and took a piece of apple and threw it in his mouth, and then went to the side and took a whole one, and asked while nibbling, "What kind of mask is this?" ”

"There's no face like yours. ”

"The conscience of heaven and earth, your face is no smaller than mine!"

"You've never looked in the mirror, have you?"

Wu Tong watched the sister and brother bickering, and didn't dare to laugh if he wanted to laugh, for fear that his mask would wrinkle when he smiled.

Meng Caiwei has not taken on the scene for more than half a year after filming "Crossing the River", and there are very few other jobs, daily fitness and reading, travel and shopping, the main purpose of going to Hangzhou this time is to go to Zhejiang University to audit classes for two months, not to mix up any diplomas or to learn to dominate the character, but purely for interest.

Meng Caiwei is interested in the major of "gardening" of the College of Agriculture and Biotechnology of Zhejiang University, of course, it is not too incredible to be interested in this major, after all, there is an architect in the family, although she has not been abused by various architectural models like Meng Fan since she was a child, but it can be regarded as an ear and eye, from the perspective of "knowledge", she is really much richer than the average student of this major.

As soon as he heard Meng Caiwei's plan, Meng Fan couldn't help but tease: "With your violent temper, can you calm down and get those flowers, plants, and stone ponds in your heart?"

"Do you know what it means to eat fasting and chant Buddha for ten years?"

"Together, you want to let these things wear out all your patience and raise your temper even more?

Wu Tong went to cut the watermelon, came over, continued to apply the mask, ate the melon, and watched the two sisters and brothers fight.

Meng Fan and Meng Caiwei bickering is the norm, and it is unceremonious to pit each other, Meng Fan tricked Meng Caiwei into going to the chocolate studio the next day, and asked her to match the role of Meng Po, who does not appear many times in "There is a Spirit Underground" but is very important in the play.

Meng Caiwei's line skills are recognized as good in the industry, and the dubbing effect is of course very good, as for Meng Fan arranging such a role for her, Meng Caiwei's professionalism is of course impossible to resist there, what she resists is just Meng Fan's free dubbing, and it has nothing to do with what role she is dubbed.

In the next two days, Meng Fan basically dubbed in the chocolate studio, dubbing all the content of the protagonist of the first season of "Underground Spirit", and also dubbing the work of dubbing director.

Two invited songs were also delivered, and the efficiency was much faster than Meng Fan thought, one was written by Shi 15, and the other was Jin Xiaowen, and at the same time, Jin Xiaowen also agreed to join the post-music production of "Underground Spirit", and also recommended a musician to help with the soundtrack.

In this way, the layout required for post-work is basically complete.

As for propaganda or something, it's not difficult, that is, to see what the final effect looks like.

In the blink of an eye, in late September, the dubbing production of "Underground Spirit" was completed, the soundtrack was basically good, and the songs received a total of seven suitable songs, a theme song, an ending song, and five interludes, all of which were sung by well-known singers.

This "well-known" singer includes Meng Fan, a well-known non-professional singer, who sang the ending song, and the theme song was written by Shi 15, but it was not sung by Shi 15 but sung by Su Qingcen. In addition, one of the two songs written by Jin Xiaowen was sung by Bai Zhi.

Of course, Meng Fan couldn't give the remuneration of these two people if he wanted to.
