Late January 2022. Before the Chinese New Year, Lin Qi attended the shareholders' meeting of Felix.

The shareholders' meeting summarized the gains and losses of last year's operation and the direction of development in the new year. At the same time, it is a dividend.

This year, the scale of the company is indeed much larger than last year. The number of employees has exceeded 500, and the profit is 430 million, an increase of more than 30% compared with last year. This is still the loss of some of the company's cash-burning businesses and the loss of part of the profits, otherwise, it is possible to double the profits last year.

There have been a bunch of venture capitalists who want to invest money for a long time, but Felix is not bad for money, so he is not ready to accept it for the time being. Only when it is time to go public will the company accept external investment.

Of course, Felix's company is not all smooth sailing, in fact, the Xuanniao voice actor platform invested last year may be a big failure.

In order to build an Internet dubbing platform, Felix has invested a total of 200 million yuan in a budget for the construction of animation video websites and dubbing websites, and has developed a set of special audio players for users to choose from dubbing schemes on the Internet.

However, most of the dubbing enthusiasts are two-dimensional enthusiasts, although there are some literary and artistic talents among these enthusiasts, but there are more people who play COS, dance, or draw and write.

Dubbing is indeed relatively rare, not to mention, many users of the second dimension have been captured by Japanese voice actors, and Chinese dubbing cannot achieve the expected effect, not only will not be supported, but will also be abused.

Therefore, many UP owners can not make money, but also many of them gain high popularity. Therefore, after more than half a year of working on the Xuanniao dubbing website, I had to give up because the traffic was too low.

The entire dubbing website invests tens of millions of yuan in resources every month, but the income generated is less than tens of thousands of yuan, and there is no improvement at all. It doesn't matter if you burn money at a loss, the key is to hear a sound when you burn money, and you can't even stir up a splash, which is equivalent to smashing money in vain.

In this regard, Lin Qi also blamed himself and said: "I think things are too simple!"

"Boss, I think you're right! Who in the world can be so absolute and unpredictable? The most important thing in doing business is trial and error, and after mistakes occur, just correct them. Yun Xianke held high the slogan of supporting the boss and talked eloquently, "Of course, after the mistake occurred, as we ordinary management, no one dared to put forward a corrective plan, or the boss made the decision and stopped the mistake in time! Not only did it avoid greater losses, but it also consolidated the user viscosity of the company's new business in the animation platform!"

In fact, the level of the Chinese dubbing industry has always been very low, which is not a problem that Lin Qi can see alone. This problem has existed for at least thirty years.

A long time ago, domestic anime lovers were disappointed with the level of Chinese dubbing. Not to mention that compared with the Japanese animation industry, it is not even as good as my Chinese dubbing level at the beginning of the reform and opening up. At that time, the Chinese dubbing could still hear the emotional ups and downs, and the attitude was very serious. But by the end of the 90s, it was basically like reading a text.

At least 20 years ago, many netizens who were dissatisfied with domestic animation posted on the Internet to point out. However, for a long time, the level has not improved. To some extent, it's because animation production is also market-oriented.

Chinese dubbing has long been not accepted by two-dimensional users in the market, and there is no market demand, so naturally there is no capital to try to expand the Chinese dubbing market.

However, at present, Felix has integrated the original animation resources and the purchased authorized animation resources into one platform, and the Felix animation formed has gradually gained a firm foothold in the market. Because,Authorized animation,As long as it's not an exclusive resource,Everyone buys Felix and follows the trend to buy licensing,So,This kind of animation is to solve the problem.,So that the audience doesn't need to change websites frequently to watch animation.。 At the same time, Felix has self-made animated content, although these contents dare not be said to be the world's top, but at least they are above the level, and they are all watchable levels.

Therefore, these original animations have gradually attracted some supporters to the website.

The animation of "Fairy Sword 1" has indeed attracted a lot of hardcore fans to the website. There are two types of charging modes for this animation, one is direct payment, recharge 30 yuan, you can watch it online, and get a recharge package worth 300 yuan for the mobile game "Sword and Fairy 1". The other is the user who has passed the identity authentication, the website checks in every day, you can save 1 Philippine coin, sign in for a month, you can make up 30 Philippine dollars, and watch paid animations like "Fairy Sword 1" for free.

Under this mechanism, Felix Animation's exclusive paid animations are extremely expensive, much more expensive than the paid prices of animations and movies on most online sites. However, watching animation is not a mobile game gift package, some mobile game recharge users, calculate the price, and choose paid animation, so as to get a mobile game gift package, but it is more cost-effective than directly recharging in the mobile game.

Users don't have only one option to pay, active users can sign in every day to accumulate Philippine coins, save for a month, and watch an exclusive masterpiece. In this way, the website retains a large number of users, and does not let users go out to find pirated copies because of the high price of fees.

At present, there is not much original content on the Felix Animation website, but the original ones are basically sincere works that will not disappoint users. Therefore, the fame of Felix Animation Network in China has gradually begun to sound, and many two-dimensional fans have taken the initiative to promote Station F (Felix).

Although, it is not enough to be as strong as the traditional two-dimensional channel B station, but station F also has a place in the market because it has its own exclusive original animation, so that it will not lose its competitiveness under the pressure of station B because of the homogenization of content.

"To put it simply, it's very difficult to do in the current environment of dubbing websites. But the original animation website is promising?" Lin Qi said.

"Yes!!" said Yun Xianke with a nod, "Compared to us, music, and manga websites, the IP of animation is more viscous and attractive. , mainly the text plot, lacking pictures and sounds. Music, although it has sound, is only a song, not a plot. Comics, there are plots and pictures, but there is no sound. Only, animation combines plot, music, graphics and other elements, and high-quality animation can create a far greater IP than a simple comic! Even if there is an original work, it can also be used through animation to further expand the influence of the original work to a height that it never had before. This is the founder of the original type of moon society, Mushroom.,In the early days, he was just a third-rate writer.,The manuscripts written in high school were not interested.,I had to mix with another fellow Takeuchi to mix in the human world.。 Rely on the stories of King Arthur and other ancient and modern Chinese and foreign historical myths and celebrities to renovate to earn some popularity. Even if it was made into little butter later, its influence was limited, and it wasn't until the animation adaptation of "Tsukihime" and "FATE" that it really had a phenomenal influence......

There is no shortage of authors in our country who have made a lot of money from comics, but these works adapted from games may not be able to have a more effective IP effect than anime IP. This is a big factor, because relying only on the text version of the story, the fan viscosity is not enough! As for the IP of live-action movies, because its painting style is too far away from the game, the IP effect is also greatly reduced. Therefore, I think that for a game manufacturer like ours, which is not big or small, the most effective IP should be to adapt the work into original animation...... Animation attracts fans, and the benefits of the game are maximized! Therefore, the animation created in order to attract fans must either be done or must be a high-quality product!"

Lin Qi nodded and said, "That's right! This direction should be right, and it is in line with the actual situation of our company! Next year, the company should indeed focus on making the animation platform bigger!"

"Thank you boss for your trust and understanding!" said Yun Xianke full of enthusiasm, "If our platform can continue to have super popular animation IPs next year, then we will definitely become the top ten game giants in the industry in the future!"

"Don't worry about this, we're looking for exclusive super IPs!" Lin Qi said, "It's just that the original license issue has not been discussed." After the negotiation is done, the work can be taken out! This work is similar to the previous "Fairy Sword 1", the original work has enough influence, but if you want to get the adaptation rights, you need to negotiate!"

"Really?" the Uncyclinarian instantly looked excited.

Lin Qi was still very happy for a manager like Yun Xianke who was both capable, loyal, and had some vision.

Of course, this is not to say that he has a great ability to read people, but that he is purely lucky. People are lucky, and they find a cat and a dog at random, all of whom are buried management wizards.
