Chapter 963 - Raising Eyebrows [Two More Requests for Subscription]
In fact, the matter of adapting it into anime has been on Toei's side, and many light adaptations of anime have achieved great success.
At present, although the network has been changed to anime in China, it is generally in a tepid state.
First of all, of course, the work itself is not powerful, and the shoddy things can't attract anyone at all except for consuming the feelings of the original readers, and can only entertain themselves in a small area, and it is impossible to get out of the circle for ordinary people to like.
Tian Kangle shrugged his shoulders and said: "I don't want to be like other companies, greedy and unwilling to spend money to buy really good IP. They want to save money, and when they can't afford the work of the top writers, they go for the works of the lower grades. Don't look at those works, they seem to be very famous, but the moisture of the data is relatively heavy, and the number of fans is not much at all. I just want to get the best!"
"Since it's going to be adapted into a comic, why don't you use the boss's work? At least the boss's work won't charge you, right?" Ye Shumei asked curiously, "Isn't the boss's work top-notch?"
As soon as these words came out, Tian Kangle waved his hand again and again, "How come! The boss's book is the pillar of our magazine, no, it should be regarded as a pillar of support!"
If it weren't for the smart comics that he relied on "What Happened to the Rabbit That Year", how could he be sitting in the office of Hanlin Culture Media Company now.
In addition, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" also published comics, but because Zhang Chu was not finished, of course, the painter could not draw the plot out of nothing.
Zhou Kang didn't know much about comics, and only stayed at the level that his children liked to read, he asked: "It seems that "The Lord of the Rings" has not been changed into comics, Mr. Tian, have you considered this one? It is about to be made into a movie, don't you hurry up and take advantage of the popularity?"
Now Tian Kangle is in a little uncomfortable, he wants to explain but doesn't know how to speak.
Fortunately, at this time, Zhang Chu opened his mouth to stop the two of them from asking, "Not every one is suitable for adaptation into comics, and "The Lord of the Rings" lacks the passion of the protagonist. ”
The animation industry includes animation, comics, movies, peripherals and other industries, and the Internet is just a subdivision of literature, and if they are married, it can be said that it is very promising!
In fact, the domestic comic industry is lacking in original talents and product creativity, so it is the most suitable choice to find stories and materials from another platform that young people like.
The vast number of online literary works can just make up for the lack of domestic animation story creation ability, excellent networks have highly imaginative storylines, high content value, and great potential for adaptation.
The most important thing is that the users of the Internet and anime actually overlap very much, and they both occupy an important position among young people.
"Those adaptation rights with a lot of readers are not cheap, we can focus on one, first use it to change it into a comic, and then change it to animation when the time is ripe, and pay attention to the issue of peripheral products when signing the contract, and don't have disputes afterwards. ”
His current identity is also half an Internet writer, of course, he knows what Internet writers are worried about, at least he can't pit his own people!
After getting Zhang Chu's approval, Tian Kangle smiled and said: "Now the trend of changing animation on the Internet has not completely risen, I will first contact the author to see whose hands the copyright is." ”
Whether the contract can be successfully concluded depends on the ownership of copyright.
If it is a website, it will definitely be much more difficult than the author himself, at least he has seen more of the world, and he will not be confused by millions of yuan or tens of millions of yuan.
Ye Shumei said frankly: "This year, thanks to your various incomes, the company can now come up with 30 million yuan." Universal's $45 million royalties haven't arrived, and Farewell My Concubine's copyright dividends haven't arrived, which is almost all your book sales fees. ”
"Enough is enough, 30 million will definitely not need so much!" Tian Kangle rubbed his hands excitedly, following the big boss is not short of funds, especially this boss still supports himself.
"I didn't say that all the money was given to you, Mr. Tian's smart comics made a lot of profits on "What Happened to the Rabbit That Year", right? I think you can actually be responsible for your own profits and losses, and you don't need us to inject capital!"
Now the second season of the animation of "What Happened to the Rabbit That Year" has been launched, and almost every episode can exceed 100 million views, which can be called a phenomenal comic.
The cost of this broadcast alone is enough to make money from smart comics, not to mention the peripherals of the rabbit, which is a gold mine!
After hearing Ye Shumei's analysis, Zhang Chu reacted.
That's right!
I almost forgot the most important thing, but the rabbit made a lot of money for smart comics, which can be called a cornucopia and a cash cow.
"Lao Tian, you're not kind, you actually came to cry poor!"
"Actually, I'm here to seek the advice of the boss, and if I can raise funds, of course, it will be better, so that I will be more confident when I negotiate. The main thing is to have a good performance at the end of the year, in order to make the boss your wallet more bulging. ”
Zhang Chu waved his hand and said: "You do it boldly, as long as it doesn't exceed 10 million, you don't need to report it to me, just take it yourself." ”
It may be that there are more and more numbers in the bank card, and now he is becoming less and less sensitive to these numbers.
After they chatted together for a while, Tian Kangle got up and left, the headquarters of Smart Comics was still far from here, but Zhou Kang stayed in Zhang Chu's office to report other things.
"Boss, do you remember Chinese Bridge? Shonan Satellite TV and Hanban have already set a date with the foreign contestants, and they want to know if you, the spokesperson, have time to go over and tell them about China in your mind, and if not, you can find someone to help you write a script. ”
Many of the wise hosts or guest images in the TV station are shaped by the huge behind-the-scenes team, and many scripts are not written by themselves, but written by others, which is no longer an unspoken rule, but an explicit rule!
In the eyes of the staff of Hanban and the Confucius Institute headquarters, Zhang Chu is simply a business card for China to walk in the world.
He has a deep understanding of ancient Chinese mythology, and reinterprets the Three Emperors and Five Emperors into such an unforgettable work as "Sou Shen Ji".
At the same time, he also has knowledge of the history of various dynasties, and a "Fifteenth Year of Wanli" has amazed many Ming history experts, and has even been collected in libraries around the world.
In addition, Zhang Chu has a deep understanding of traditional Chinese culture, and when he wrote a Peking opera, he wrote "Farewell My Concubine"! When feng shui was regarded by many people as feudal superstition, he used a "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" to let readers feel the essence of this culture that has been inherited for thousands of years.
"Farewell My Concubine" connects the Republic of China with modern and contemporary times, then "Norwegian Wood" focuses on the psychological conditions of young people in today's society, and "In the Name of the People" looks at officialdom.
From ancient times to the present, it seems that every era has been looked at by him, and there is nothing he doesn't know!
"China in my eyes?"
Zhang Chu thought about it in his mind, the China in his eyes may not be the same as the kind of praise that the TV station wants, and if it is told truthfully, it is very likely that it will not be broadcast.
may be considered by many keyboard warriors to be cents or expose their shortcomings in front of outsiders, after a little consideration, Zhang Chucai replied: "My qualifications are too shallow, and this kind of summary speech should be found by a respected teacher." If I have to say something, in fact, I have already said it, do you still remember the "Young China Says" by the Weiming Lake? That is my attitude, my expectations of myself and others!"
pretended to be a bold man, and he was almost moved by himself.
Zhou Kang couldn't help nodding: "Yes, yes, that thing is really suitable for the occasion! If the youth is strong, China is strong." ”
The purpose of Chinese Bridge itself is to promote the Chinese language, promote Chinese culture, and let young people in foreign countries know what the real China is like.
The thought of being able to read this article with his head held high in front of the descendants of the Eight-Nation Alliance, Zhou Kang trembled all over, the Chinese nation really stood up!
Only when the country is strong can people all over the world be willing to learn with an open mind!
