Chapter 133 IP Adaptation (Part 1, Ask for Everything)

"Mr. Zheng, our first-generation DJI drone is doing the final debugging. This drone, with a maximum remote control distance of about 3,000 meters, has an aerial photography function. ”

"The R&D department is planning to design the second generation of drones, which can be remotely controlled at a distance of up to 6,000 meters, adding automatic follow-up functions. ”

"The company is still hiring, and there is a shortage of people in various departments. Vice President Guo has transferred some people to fill in some departments, and now the company can barely operate. ”

"Regarding production, Ran Ran and I discussed that we planned to set up a factory, and the former futures source was all manufactured by our own factory. In the later stage, if the sales volume is large, it may be found OEM. After all, we are the first company to do civilian drones, and the major foundries have no experience in this area, and it is estimated that the foundry is not easy to find. ”

In the general manager's office of DJI Technology Company, Qian Jun gave Zheng Ge a cup of tea and briefly described the recent situation.

"How to set up your own factory?"

Zheng Ge asked.

"My uncle is looking for a relationship and is going to buy two production lines from the military/factory side to deal with it temporarily. Qian Jun said.

Zheng Ge: "......" has an uncle who is a cow fork, which is good, "Yes, are there any difficulties in other aspects?"

Qian Jun looked worried, "Everything is going well for the time being, but when you really enter the market, I'm afraid it will be ......."

Ran Ran's face was also worried.

After all, drones are valuable.

Or rather, it is a luxury, not a necessity.

For example, the first generation of civilian drones, Qian Jun and they plan to price 12,000 yuan, which directly blocks most people from the door. In these years, there are not many people who are willing to spend more than 10,000 yuan to buy an electronic product.

It's not that you can't afford it.

The main thing is reluctance.

If you really want to buy it, most people can buy it through gritted teeth.

"Mr. Zheng, I think the price is 12,000 yuan, which is really a bit expensive. Why don't you go down a little bit?"

Ran Ran frowned.

"I don't think it's right to cut the price. ”

Qian Jun shook his head, "Our product is the world's first civilian drone, if the price is set very low at the beginning, it is equivalent to setting the tone." In the future, it will be difficult to raise the price. I think it's better to reduce the price after the second-generation drone is launched. ”

Zheng Ge was silent.

Think about it, think about the first mobile phone of the year, when it first came out, how high was the price?

Tens of thousands, tens of thousands.

What did the mobile phones look like at that time? They all looked like big bricks, but they were sold at a dead high price.

Because at that time, mobile phones were still luxury accessories and relatively rare things.

"You can negotiate the price, but it's a bit early to talk about it. Now what you have to do is to get the company up and running as soon as possible, and if you need help, you can contact Mr. Guo. In addition, we should also pay close attention to the construction of factories. Don't relax in R&D. After the successful development of the second generation, the third, fourth and fifth generations will continue to be developed. After our drones are listed, I'm afraid it won't be long before someone comes out to compete with us for the market, and we have to be prepared for this. ”

Zheng Ge said solemnly.

Qian Jun and Ran Ran nodded.

Then he explained a little, and Zheng Ge got up and left DJI.

......

Walking out of the building, Zheng Ge was about to greet Ah Zheng and drive home.

At this time, he received a call from Zhou Zhou.

"Mr. Zheng, Mr. Zheng, good news. ”

Zhou Zhou's excited voice came.

Zheng Ge stood by the car, holding his mobile phone, listening to Zhou Zhou's excited voice, a little speechless, "I said Miss Zhou, you are now the editor-in-chief, you must know how to control your mood, don't babble when you encounter something." Let your subordinates see how bad the impact is. ”

Zhou Zhou: "......"

I can't wait to tell you a good news, and I have to be trained!

Immediately she said: "Mr. Zheng, we set sail for the Chinese network, and a director took a fancy to it and wanted to buy the copyright and adapt it into a TV series." ”

Zheng Ge was stunned for a moment and said, "Adaptation?"

IP adaptation is not hot in this world.

But in the previous life, it was no stranger.

In previous lives, countless online articles were changed into TV series, online dramas, movies, and so on.

Although most of them have come to an end in the streets.

Of course, there are also some that are very successful, such as Flower Thousand Bone, Residual Sin, etc.

Hey, Hua Qiangu seems to be an IP adaptation.

Zheng Ge can't remember it clearly.

But in the previous life, IP was indeed very popular. Although on the eve of his crossing, there was some coldness.

In this world, Zheng Ge also has plans to develop IP. But the development time of the online article here is too short after all, and it is only two months when it is full.

There are not many books in the library, how to fry IP?

"Yes, this director is very famous, his name is Monday, you should have heard of it. The TV series filmed by him are basically the ratings. I feel that if the adaptation can be successful this time, then the reputation of our Chinese network will definitely soar. ”

Zhou Zhou's tone was excited, she had long regarded setting sail for the Chinese network as her own career.

At the beginning, with Zheng Ge's consent, Xi Meng and Zhou Zhou signed an agreement. As long as Zhou Zhou can operate the Chinese Network to a certain scale, she will be given a part of the equity dividends.

Of course, it is only the equity dividend of Qihang Chinese Network.

Therefore, she was also heartbroken about the development of Qihang Chinese Network.

"What's the name of the book adaptation?"

Zheng Ge asked.

"Sword and Fairy, well! According to your classification, this book belongs to the female frequency. ”

Zhou Zhou said.

Zheng Ge supported his forehead.

Sure enough, it's still a good adaptation of female frequency.

It was the same in previous lives.

Most of the successful adaptations are female frequencies.

And the male frequency, basically change one and pounce one.

remembers that the most successful male frequency seems to be "Residual Sin", which is still an online drama, but unfortunately it was also removed from the shelves later.

"What about the data in this book?"

Zheng Ge asked.

Zhou Zhou said: "The data is not particularly good, 100,000 clicks, about 30 on the list." Compared with a few male frequencies with more than one million clicks, the data of this book is not very good. ”

"But I heard Director Monday say that this is a good adaptation, and some elements in this book are also very suitable for TV series. Those male frequencies are not easy to change. The key is the special effects, which are too complicated. ”

"Hmmm! It's too much money. I heard the director on Monday say that the most popular male frequency on our website, if it is adapted, the special effects alone are estimated to be hundreds of millions, and the price is too high. ”

Zheng Ge hummed, thought for a while, and said: "Now that online literature has just started, we still need to do a lot. For example, the later opening of paid reading, etc., after all, the company wants to make a profit. As for IP adaptation, it is also a major trend in the future. ”

"In the future, there will be not only film and television adaptations, but also games, animations, comics, and so on. Therefore, I suggest that in the early stage, the IP copyright control should be stricter. Especially those excellent IPs, don't rush to make a move. Wait for the price to come up in the future. ”

Zhou Zhou hesitated, "You mean, refuse to be directed on Monday?"
