Chapter 182: Anime and Drama
"Manga, when did you have this hobby?"
Lin Yipo said to Ma Chunqiang with interest. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"It's not that I'm interested, it's that one of the screenwriters in the company likes comics and proposed it to the fat man. Ma Chunqiang said, "The fat man has discussed with me a few times, I investigated, and the development of domestic comics has been good in recent years, and the country's support for animation is also good......
Lin Yi also knows a little about the state's support for the animation industry, and even the animation industry has had a period of false prosperity - every year the state will allocate a large amount of support funds, and each province will have a group of people with connections, specifically for this support fund to open a comic company, recruit a few cheap authors at will, and publish a few comics at will, so that they don't expect to make money through comics, and the picture is to get a million support funds every year. A company with no more than 10 employees can rent a house in the suburbs and spend less than 350,000 yuan a year, and the company can make a net profit of 500,000 or 600,000 yuan by eating support funds!
But even if it's a false prosperity, it's really prosperous, and it's really come out of a few better works.
Although anime is a niche genre, the fan base is very stable, and even a lot of anime movies adapted from manga have been produced subsequently, and the box office is not bad.
"Tell me about your plans. Lin Yi said.
"Well, I plan to recruit a group of comic book writers, as well as animation production staff, and like "Wan Wan", first publish comics and online short films, accumulate fans, and wait until a certain extent, and then integrate the short films into big movies. Ma Chunqiang said.
"Haha, okay, this plan works. Lin Yi said with a smile, "Well, in this way, the animation part will set up a separate subsidiary and operate independently, and you can just look at the arrangement within the start-up capital of five million." ā
"Five million is a bit much, and it doesn't cost much money to make comics and short films in the early stage. Ma Chunqiang said with a smile.
"Okay, you can see how much is appropriate, just talk to Sister Xue. Lin Yi said, "In addition, let me mention to you, that is, don't just stare at our own works, you can see what good serialized works are on the Internet, and then buy the copyright and sign the author." Also, we can also solicit papers, we can make an online version of a comic journal or something, well, by the way, we can make a mobile phone APP, update a little bit every day, cultivate our own user base, and produce works in the future to better harvest the fan effect. ā
Lin Yi and Ma Chunqiang talked about some ideas about the development of the comic industry - in fact, it is nothing more than the market experience in the next few years.
Although Lin Yi was not a comic book fan in the previous life, he did not exclude reading comics, especially those famous anime movies, such as "100,000 Bad Jokes", "Kuiba", "The Return of the Great Sage" and other works, Lin Yi also liked them.
Moreover, this market is really profitable, for example, "The Return of the Great Sage" got a box office of more than nine billion!
After the establishment of the animation company was finalized, Lin Yi chatted with Ma Chunqiang about the situation of the branch in Zhongzhou for a while, so that he could go back and prepare for the start of the film after the new year.
The new movie will have more than two-thirds of the shots, which are still filmed in Zhongzhou, only a small number of more luxurious shots need to be found in the capital to find a suitable place, and the others that can be filmed in Zhongzhou, Lin Yi will be placed in Zhongzhou, on the one hand, the shooting cost in Zhongzhou is low, and on the other hand, it can be regarded as bringing some benefits to the Zhongzhou film and television industry and schools.
After sending off the representatives of the Zhongzhou branch led by the boss, Lin Yi put his energy into Yishi again.
Fortunately, after Yixun moved away, a lot of rooms were vacated in the nearby office building, and there was a large office on the second floor of the main building, and there was a half-story large office next door, which became the office location of Yishi.
Nowadays, the development of Yishi is quite rapid, but in just a few months, the number of employees in the company has soared to more than 100, and even so, everyone's workload is still very high.
Now that it has reached the end of the year, it is not easy to recruit people, and the workload arranged by Lin Yi is too large, and these employees have to work overtime almost every day.
Fortunately, Lin Yikai's salary is good, and the red envelopes are diligent, but no one has complaints, all of them are grateful, seeing the introduction of one promotion plan after another, the number of visits to Yishi every day is growing rapidly, which means that the company's valuation is also growing rapidly......
In his spare time, Lin Yi took Cao Xiaoxue to wander around the capital.
Although the company has been in the capital for half a year, Lin Yi has not visited the capital well, although those attractions have been visited in the previous life, but some projects are reluctant to enjoy by Lin Yi in the previous life.
For example, Lao Guo's cross talk, Lin Yike in the previous life has never heard the scene, such as the stage play of Happy Twist, Lin Yi has never seen one......
"Have you taken a fancy to other people's heroines? It's been three days in a row, and it's not enough?"
In the front row of the theater, while the performance had not yet started, Cao Xiaoxue "interrogated" Lin Yi.
"Hehe, I really like her a little bit," Lin Yi said with a smile, seeing that Cao Xiaoxue was showing signs of madness, he hurriedly smiled and said, "The acting skills are really good......
"What? Don't tell me you're going to ask her to film. Cao Xiaoxue rolled her eyes and said.
Lin Yi wanted to invite, after all, she was originally the heroine. But the problem is that he has already set the female number one Wang Xinmeng, of course, it is impossible to use outsiders.
However, this does not prevent Lin Yi from watching her stage performance, and can also deepen the analysis of the role, so that he can better guide Wang Xinmeng when filming in the future.
Of course, this kind of thing is actually more abstract, after all, what is being performed on the stage now is not "Charlotte's Troubles" that Lin Yi is preparing to film, and that drama will not be created until two years. But now that Lin Yi has taken the lead, it is estimated that he will not be able to appear on the stage......
"That's not it," Lin Yi said, "However, I'm just thinking, the level of the artists in our company is much worse than others, it's better to shoot some spoof costume dramas, if you really want to make modern movies, I'm afraid that their performance level is not enough......"
"There's no way around it, who made us all from the grassroots. Cao Xiaoxue said, "But didn't they all take acting classes at school......?
"You can't wait like this," Lin Yi said, "The key is to give them more opportunities to go on stage, I'm wondering, can they also set up a theater like this in Zhongzhou, it doesn't have to be so big, it can sit one or two hundred people, perform one or two times a week, and don't expect to make money by selling tickets, you can give free tickets to netizens and fans, the key is to let them exercise more." ā
"Yes, we don't have to lose this amount of money, or cooperate with the acting department of CUHK to do it, and we also happen to train some reserve actors, hehe. Cao Xiaoxue said with a smile.
