Wang Chuan and the producer both looked embarrassed.

Liu Shuo said: "I know you have concerns, but the staff of Manying are the original team that produced "Dream of Martial Arts", and if the two companies cooperate, they can save time and money. At that time, the remaining part will be directly paid into the publicity fee, so that both companies can rest assured. After all, we invested money, and we are responsible for the money we invested, right?"

"And I'm not very optimistic about your animated movie, maybe I'm a bit straight, but you should know that I'm a straight talker. ”

Wang Chuan and the producer looked at each other, a little helpless. Of course, they knew about Liu Shuo, otherwise they would not have asked him to invest, but they didn't expect Liu Shuo to be optimistic about their project.

"To be honest, the market for animated films is not very mature. Now the domestic adult animation market has just begun, and the vast majority of animation's share is in children's animation. "Kuiba" invested 20 million, and only needed 50 million box office to recover the cost. But now there are very few movies that can reach 50 million, do you think an animated film can reach 50 million at the box office?"

"The box office of "Dream of Martial Arts" is only 12 million, and if it weren't for the fact that my animation industrial park is contributing about 150,000 box office every day, "Dream of Martial Arts", which has an investment of only 3.6 million, would not be able to recover its costs. ”

Wang Chuan also became less confident when he heard this, and he asked, "Then you still have to invest in "Kuiba". ”

Liu Shuo laughed, "The reason why I invested in "Kuiba" is because you dare to be the first, the animation industry needs a pioneer, as long as it is good for the animation industry, I will support it." That's why I invested in "Kuiba", but I don't want my money to go down the drain, Comic Film Company has a relatively mature production team, as long as our two companies cooperate, the production will be much smoother and much better. And we hired a Disney animation director, so we could add more commercial elements to make "Quiba" sell as much money as possible. ”

"Wouldn't this be more expensive for "Kuiba"?" Wang Chuan asked, "And if I join an American director, won't he interfere with my actions?"

"Don't worry, this American director is now receiving a monthly salary, even if he stays all day, I will pay him a salary. He's on the League of Legends animation team right now, and it's impossible to spend all of his time on Quiba, so I'm just trying to have him act as an advisor and let him suggest some opinions that you can choose not to listen to if they don't match. ”

Wang Chuan glanced at the producer, and the producer said, "That's it, Mr. Liu." We need to go back and talk about it, can we get back to you as soon as possible?"

Liu Shuo nodded, "Of course you can, if you have an answer, you can go directly to Li Chi, and he will have full authority to contact you on my behalf." I won't be in any position on the project team, but I hope that when the finished film comes out, I can see it as soon as it comes out, and if it doesn't pass my review, you need to revise it. ”

"I'll escalate your conditions. ”

The two sides shook hands with each other, and Wang Chuan and the producer immediately, the two sides parted a little unhappily. Liu Shuo is too strong, but there is no way, the adult animated film market is not mature now, and he needs to set a standard for domestic animated films at the beginning. Animation directors are sometimes like literary film directors, always trying to do something profound, but such animated films can't get a high box office at all, because people can't understand it.

There are a few people who have Director Chen's bullishness, people say that "Wuji" is a bad movie, Director Chen said that no one will be able to understand it within five years, and then five years later, people find out that "Wuji" will be Mr. Chen's thing. Well, five years later, except for this one thing, which conforms to the logic of "Wuji", no one still understands "Wuji".

It's not that literary films are bad, but when the audience can't understand literary films, don't have so many literary films. The reason why Hollywood literary films are selling well is because they have a fixed viewing group, and the audience's taste has long been up. But the taste of domestic audiences is still in the stage of watching commercial films, you just play literary films, if you don't die, who will die!

Therefore, in order not to let domestic animation workers be too ambitious and make particularly meaningful animation works, Liu Shuo has the obligation to set a line for them, a line for commercial films. You can bring some literary elements, but don't be too literary.

After Wang Chuan and the producer went back, he talked to the boss of Qingqingshu, Qingqingshu has been doing animation for many years, but he has not made any achievements. The money they have earned over the years is not as much as Liu Shuo earns in a year now, so much so that they can't even take out 20 million.

They discussed for five days, and finally gave Liu Shuo a reply, but they still negotiated with Li Chi and won some advantages in dividends. Although both parties have invested 10 million, Qingqingshu Company has done a lot of preliminary work and owns the copyright of "Kuiba", so it is reasonable to ask for more dividends.

In the end, the result of the negotiation was that the two sides were divided into four or six points, and Liu Shuo didn't care, 10 million was not much for him, and he could earn it back in a month for the money of a house. If Qingqingshu can use such a small dividend to become a rapid development, Liu Shuo doesn't mind giving it a little more, there are not many companies that do animation with such intentions.

However, it is a pity that Liu Shuo is still not optimistic about "Kuiba", and giving Qingqingshu a little more dividends is just to make it lose a little less.

reached an agreement with Qingqingshu, Li Chi began to deploy manpower to Qingqingshu to produce "Kuiba", and then the vacant manpower began to top the students who had signed contracts in the junior year of Zhongchuan and Beiying, and started to work from Monday to Friday afternoon, and the salary was increased according to the hours.

In December, He Dan came back from the west and left for nearly two months, He Dan became more shrewd and capable, and there was a faint momentum of a strong woman.

Micro Branch has also done a good job of Weibo on the computer side and Weibo on the mobile side, Liu Shuo and He Dan called their friends, Yang Mi, Mei Diao Chan, Feng Shaofeng, Huang Bo, Bao Bell, Jiang Yiyan, Liu Yifei, Xiong Naijin and other forty or fifty celebrities have begun to settle in Weibo. Of course, Liu Shuo was the first to settle in Weibo, and let Manfeng.com help him publicize it.

Although Weibo is not a new thing, there are still very few people who follow it without publicity. However, after these celebrities join Weibo, their fans will follow Weibo and become Weibo users. As more celebrities join Weibo, the more users of Weibo will be.

It's just getting started.
