Chapter 136 Investment
Lin Xianyu was very dissatisfied with his brother Lin Yuan, and couldn't wait for him to leave immediately, Zhang Yao and the others just thought it was tsundere, no one cared, Zhang Yao was quite curious about Lin Yuan, and asked, "I heard that you make flash?" ”
"That's right, I'm a flasher. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Lin Yuan nodded and said proudly.
"It's an old enough word that if I were a little younger, I wouldn't know what it means."
Zhang Yao rubbed his temples, Xu Xiaowei had already poked his little head and asked, "Teacher, Flasher is a god horse?" ”
Lin Yuan darkened his face and said, "You should be the same as her, I don't know what this is." ”
"Guest" refers to practitioners in certain industries, such as hackers, and "flash" is the original meaning of the word flash, so flasher actually refers to people who do flash.
Not long after the Internet became popular, flash animation was extremely popular, but it had already been lonely, or directly eliminated, and the word flash had become a thing of the past, and not many people had heard of it.
Zhang Yao said so, Lin Yuan scratched his head, and said with a dry smile: "Because of many reasons, the status quo is indeed the case, in fact, we also want to do animation directly, but what can we do without financial support, it just so happens that flash is outdated, but it can make some money, so we can only stick to this position." ”
"Mr. Lin seems to be a student majoring in animation at the University of Fine Arts, and it is indeed a bit overkill to make flash." Su Yunsleeve also expressed regret.
Now that animation technology has been quite successful, coupled with the development limitations of its own computer technology, flash has long been marginalized, perhaps because of this, Lin Yuan has the opportunity to make money with this.
Although it is on the verge of elimination, the sales of flash are not low, and there is still a certain market for making some small games and small animations, but it has long been impossible to generalize with the brilliant time, and it can make money, but it must not make much, so Lin Xianyu will express his disdain.
Speaking of this, Lin Yuan shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "We also want to do animation, but the competition is too big, there are already so many large and small animation companies, where can we make money in this wild way." It doesn't matter if you have food and clothing, many people in our school will have more independent short films, just for fun or to exercise their abilities, and they don't care about money, but I can't. ”
"Because you have to earn living expenses, you brothers and sisters don't take turns crying poor." Zhang Yao shrugged and said, "I said that if I support you in doing animation, do you have the confidence to do a good job?" ”
Zhang Yao's heart moved, and he thought of making animated movies again, but he was a little uneasy, after all, Lin Yuan was only a half-baked student, who knew if the level could meet the requirements.
Lin Yuan was stunned, not knowing why she suddenly said this, and didn't dare to promise anything easily, and asked: "Then it depends on what you need us to do, not blowing, we are very good at composition and special effects, at least the first-class level in the industry." ”
"You've been emphasizing you?"
"That's right, like your Yinghen Club, we also have a team, a group of like-minded people get together, anyway, the courses in the university are very easy, so it's better to use your spare time to do something you like than to harm the society."
"Should I praise you for your high consciousness?" Zhang Yao rolled her eyes, and after thinking about it for a while, she asked directly: "I want to make an animated movie, can you just say if you can do it?" ”
After hearing this, Lin Xianyu was stunned for a moment, glared and said, "No, you are still thinking about this?" Like pulling my brother into the water to do it for you? ”
Zhang Yao said: "Make the best use of your talents, what's the matter, isn't Ye Cheng Ye Qingqing's brother, there seems to be a DV club in the university, and he can't become a godfather-level director if he is pulled by the group of people in the solo group." ”
"That's true, but I think you're a little too optimistic, at least too optimistic about my brother."
"Hey, how can my sister doubt my brother like this?" Lin Yuan rubbed his nose to express his dissatisfaction, Lin Xianyu stared at him deadly, and he muttered again: "Okay, if it's a short film, it's okay, if it's a movie, it's really a little worse, first of all, there are not enough manpower." ”
Sure enough, it still doesn't work? Zhang Yao scratched her head regretfully, "You can just say no, you don't need to make excuses." ”
Lin Yuan felt despised and puffed up his chest and said: "Actually, it's not necessarily, as long as the funds are in place, it's not impossible, and some of the corresponding work can be outsourced, so it's okay." ”
Yunshang said: "Then we might as well just find an animation company to cooperate, why bother with your hands?" ”
"Oh yes." Lin Yuan shrugged down his head, and Lin Xianyu struggled for a while before he said, "Zhang Yao, if you really want to do it, just let him try it." ”
Zhang Yao said: "Of course, it's better to find acquaintances to cooperate with strangers, what level do you say you can achieve?" ”
Lin Yuan said: "In fact, many small companies, or independent teams, are not bad at technology, what is lacking is often an opportunity, and animation is not successful with good technology, otherwise Shangmei Film would not be lonely at the beginning." ”
"Getting to the point." Zhang Yao and Yunshang spoke in unison.
Lin Yuan said: "As long as you give enough funds, I don't dare to say how good you can do, but at least at the technical level, I can guarantee you that it must be above the passing line and excellent level." ”
When Yun Sheng heard this, he turned his head to look at Zhang Yao and said, "Maybe it's really okay if that's the case." ”
Whether an animation is good or not is indeed not determined by one element of technology, the script, the level of the original painting, the director's ability and even the musician of the soundtrack are equally important, as long as it is not done well, it will be completely smashed.
Of course, the script is written by Zhang Yao, and even the original painting can be taken care of by herself, there is no problem in these aspects, of course, Su Yunsleeve is the best for the soundtrack, there is no need to worry about things like storyboarding and coloring, Lin Yuan boasted that the composition is good, and there should indeed be two brushes, so that she can also save more trouble.
"If we do, will you be the director?" Zhang Yao weighed and asked again.
Lin Yuan nodded and said proudly: "Of course, I am in charge of the project in our studio, and I am also the one in charge of directing and supervising." ”
"I'll do the overseeing stuff in the future." In District 11, the superintendent actually means the director, but now that Zhang Yao says supervision, it is really just a superintendent.
If she wants to be a director herself, first, she doesn't have such experience, and secondly, Lin Yuan's university is in a foreign country, so it's easy to keep an eye on it at any time, but it's not okay to do a director's job.
When Lin Yuan heard this, he said, "You mean it's just a decision?" ”
Zhang Yao shrugged his shoulders and said, "Otherwise, what else do you want to do, sign a contract?" ”
Su Yunsleeve interjected: "The contract still has to be signed, even if it doesn't bind anything, there should be a formal process, if everyone thinks there is no problem, then let me draft it." ”
She was right, there was no harm in being formal at all, Zhang Yao nodded. Yun Sheng had no opinion, Lin Xianyu had no opinion, and Xu Xiaowei had no opinion, so all eyes were focused on Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan frowned and said, "Although we are all wild people, it also takes a lot of money to make a movie animation, and the price is actually not cheap if it is outsourced, so you don't have any pressure at all?" ”
"Money doesn't matter." This is Su Yunsleeve's attitude. Of course, she can't be confused with others, after all, people have never treated money as money.
Yunshang spread his hands and said: "Anyway, I also made money by making games, and if I lose, I will lose it, and I won't lose anything, but the investment in making animated films is too big, and all our previous profits don't seem to be enough." ”
"I still have some pocket money, but it still doesn't seem to be enough." Su Yunsleeve also frowned, although her pocket money was also a huge amount of money for others, it was obviously still not enough.
"Warlock's Sky: Inheritance of the Will" costs nearly 100 million US dollars, more than 600 million soft girl coins, although ordinary animation is not as expensive as ink animation, at least a fraction of it is still needed.
Zhang Yao slapped the table and said, "I still have royalties, don't forget that cartoonists are my main business, and making games with you is just boring." ”
Lin Xianyu said: "If you don't say it, I really forgot that your main business is a cartoonist." ”
Although it is true that she often gives others such an illusion, there is no doubt that Zhang Yao is the most well-known as a cartoonist, and the most money she earns comes from comics.
There is a special ranking book of cartoonists on the Tian/Dynasty Writers Wealth List, which will be released once a year, and it happened that this year's list was not long after it was announced, on this list, Zhang Yao still entered the top five with great momentum, three places higher than last year.
Relying on such a huge market of nearly 1.4 billion people in the Tian/Chao Dynasty, the total domestic sales of "Dragon Ball" have exceeded 300 million, and the overseas sales have exceeded 100 million.
Zhang Yao is the youngest existence on the manga artist wealth list, but this number is not much on the list, and there are more powerful predecessors pressing ahead, but other people's works are often thirty volumes or even more, and "Dragon Ball" is only half or even less.
can climb to the top five positions, the current "Gintama" is also indispensable, although "Tolove" has been loved by the majority of otaku, but after all, it can't be compared with national comics, but it is much worse.
Zhang Yao has no idea how much money he has, anyway, on days like birthdays and New Year's holidays, the bank manager will always call cordially to greet them, usually selling basic ones, and there are many people who pull investment.
The street where she lives, those grandmothers and grandfathers usually want to organize any activities, and they will come to her to ask for some sponsorship, and her parents, who don't know which country, have already stopped her pocket money, and they almost asked her for sponsorship to travel around the world.
The whole world knows that she is very rich, and there is no problem at all in investing in an animated movie, she is open-minded, Lin Xianyu was a little worried, and said: "That's what you worked hard to earn, what if you lose it?" ”
Whether it is a live-action movie or an animated movie, it is very profitable if it is done well, and if it loses money, it is not something that ordinary people can bear, because the investment is too large, and a person can go bankrupt in minutes.
Zhang Yao said very heroically: "If you lose it, you will be spended, this money has not been touched since it was deposited into my account, investing in an animated movie is better than doing what you like to do, it is more reliable than being fooled into buying a fund or something." ”
Zhang Yao is not good at financial management, and she is not interested in it, so she earns money like this, she is still a sixteen-year-old student, and she wants to buy a supercar because she can only give up every age to learn a driver's license.
All her ideas, the most expensive is this, it can't be implemented yet, usually the British Female Club celebrates is to go to KFC, this way of living, her savings are enough to live comfortably for several lifetimes.
"If I don't give you something early, you really can't spend all this money, so I said you should buy a house, and many people do it whenever they have money."
"Let's not add bricks to the real estate bubble, no one can be cheap real estate developers if it's cheap." Zhang Yao said: "Okay, it's so decided, the preliminary estimate is to invest 100 million, I will come out with the big head, and you can be regarded as a shareholder." ”
"This is a hundred million, why is the gap between the same studios so big." Lin Yuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Lin Xianyu said: "We are a fandom club, not a studio, but we have never registered." ”
"It's just because of this, it's more problematic, okay." Lin Yuan let out a long breath, then frowned and said, "Your Yinghen Club is more wild than us, and you don't have the qualifications to make animated movies at all, what's the use of having more money?" ”
"Solution?" Zhang Yao had a colon in his head.
"What are you talking about at this time?" Lin Yuan had a black line in his head, and said: "Whether it is a live-action movie or an animated movie, before filming, you must first submit a synopsis of the story to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television for approval, and the production will be publicized if the production is allowed, and the production permit can only be filmed, otherwise it will not be released at all, and the investment is so large, you don't want to make it and throw it directly on the video website, right?" ”
"Is there such a rule?" Speaking of the movie, Zhang Yao was blind, and it was obvious that Yunshang and the others didn't understand it either, this is like interlacing like a mountain.
Lin Yuan rubbed his temples and said: "Of course that's the case, in fact, it's very simple, as long as you don't deliberately die, you can get a shooting permit by writing a synopsis of the story, but you must have qualifications first, and our studio also doesn't have it." ”
Several people stared at each other, and Zhang Yao said depressedly: "I knew that the movie needed to be reviewed, and it could only be released after it was reviewed." ”
Lin Yuan said: "You said that this is a grading review after the filming is completed, if you can't pass or are not satisfied with the level, you can change it, and then you can be released with the dragon mark, in short, there is no shooting permit, and you don't even have the qualifications to submit it for review." ”
"What then?" Zhang Yao spread his hands and expressed helplessness, and Su Yunsleeve said: "Maybe we can be attached to it, and we can find a qualified company to be affiliated with." (To be continued.) )
