Chapter 548: One Punch Man

The content editors of the Japanese company also began to act quickly - call for papers!

Whether it is physical publishing or Internet publishing, it is just a different carrier. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info [Full Text Reading] However, the core thing must be the author and the content.

Without authors and content, even if the business model is the best in the world, it is impossible to become the climate.

The traditional publishing system, no matter how backward it is, is no longer in line with the trend of the times. However, as long as there is still content that attracts readers, and good authors are willing to be in the field, this market will still exist even if it declines.

The general trend of the world is essentially nothing more than the backing of people's hearts. With more people's support, it will inevitably become a climate.

Unlike traditional Japanese magazine editors, who sit in the office, browse e-mails and submit articles. The editors of the friends are almost thirsty for talents, and they continue to take the initiative to win over some creators who have rejected their manuscripts in traditional publishing institutions and have no choice but to publish their works on the Internet.

At present, these creators are more based on the psychology of sharing, but they are also eager to get the same income as creators from traditional channels.

And in Japan, there are indeed many buried webtoon artists, online writers, and online singers on the Internet. It's a pity that there is no professional platform for original content on the Internet in Japan.

Little Partner Online (Japan) Company, at present, the biggest stroke is undoubtedly to win over the author of "One Punch Man"!

"One Punch Man", or "One Punch Man", is a funny fighting manga.

"There is nothing in the world that cannot be solved with one punch, and if there is, then two punches!" - One Punch Man

With the publication of "One Punch Man" and the popularity of the anime adaptation, Saitama Sensei's head mantra began to become a very fashionable buzzword on the Internet. Even, some ACG websites in China, and later "One Punch Man" have become Nikkei topics that continue to appear on the hot topic list every day.

Of course, the current popularity of "One Punch Man" has not reached the level it was later!

One is a comic book lover due to his poor drawing skills. Countless submissions have encountered a wall. So, in a fit of rage, ONE registered a personal website. Started serializing updates on the website.

This comic with rough drawing, but it is a mistake, and it has gained more and more fans and attention on the Internet. Later, "One Punch Man" began to be valued by Shueisha because of its popularity on the Internet. Signed a publishing agreement with him. Shueisha asked professional manga artist Yusuke Murata to work with ONE to redraw "One Strike Man".

As a result, the single book of "One Punch Man" was published, and by the time the ninth volume was published, the cumulative sales had exceeded 6.5 million copies. Of course, compared to the top-of-the-line manga like Dead Fire, sales are still a little worse. However, the publication and sales of "One Punch Man" have surpassed the vast majority of powerful cartoonists. You know, there are very few comics that are popular after all. This level of sales, if not compared with the top comics, is already a very popular sales.

Of course, as an Internet entertainment platform, the partner company still attaches more importance to the popularity of "One Punch Man" on the Internet. This popularity is more intuitive and easier to count.

During the serialization of "One Punch Man" on the original author's personal website, the average daily access IP was roughly more than 20,000. In a few years, the cumulative click-through rate exceeded 10 million.

There is little commercial promotion. Relying on his works alone, he has attracted an average of 20,000 visits per day, and the traffic is very strong and stable. Visible. This writer is very worthy of wooing, at least, he already has tens of thousands of loyal die-hard fans, and he has tens of thousands of traffic "gods".

If you put it in the Chinese market, the population will be ten times larger, and the traffic will also be magnified ten times. If he is a creator on the Chinese Internet, just imagine how awesome it must be to serialize his works on his personal website and attract 200,000 IP visits every day!

Therefore, ONE is very worthy of attracting existence, and the partner company made a condition that he could not refuse - 1 billion yen to acquire ONE's personal website and all the copyrights of "One Punch Man".

In addition, ONE himself joined the partner company for ten years, and within ten years, he was mainly responsible for the creation of the "One Punch Man" comic and the development of copyright.

For subsequent creations, we will continue to pay a share of the manuscript fee. In addition, after the adaptation, a part of the reward will also be given to one.

Such measures are naturally to stimulate the creative passion of the original author, as well as to cooperate with the commercial promotion of the partner company.

After buying the copyright, I want to get rid of the commercial organization where the original author eats alone, and perhaps, I may make more profits in the short term. However, in the long run, without the full cooperation of the original author, the commercial development potential of the work cannot be fully explored.

After purchasing the copyright, a part of the share is still given to the original author, and in the long run, it stimulates the original author's participation and interest in contributing his talents, and he will definitely get more than what has already been published.

……

The lawyer quickly finalized the contract.

After the two parties had no objection and signed the contract on the spot, the partner company also generously handed over the check.

"Hello one-sensei, this is a check for 1 billion yen, and we can accompany you to the bank to withdraw cash!" Lin Qianjun took a check signed by the small partner group company and handed it to the young man in front of him.

"Thank you very much Lin Sang!" ONE was very excited to express his gratitude.

In fact, many professional manga artists in Japan earn millions of yen a year if they don't sell a single book. Moreover, the income is not so stable, if the popularity of the manuscript is too low, after being cut in half, there may be no income for a long time.

1 billion yen is more than the lifetime income of many professional manga artists combined.

Accompanied by the staff of the partner company, ONE went to the bank to withdraw the cash, and applied for a new card on the spot, which was re-deposited into his new bank card.

To be honest, the author of the webtoon and manga "One Punch Man" was suggested by Lin Qianjun, but he didn't expect that the company would spend 1 billion yen in one go, a price that cannot be refused, to recruit this young cartoonist.

No matter from what point of view, Lin Qianjun doesn't understand that comics like "One Punch Man" are worth 1 billion. Although, the unit of currency is the Japanese yen.

But if it is converted into RMB, it is at least more than 60 million to 70 million. Nima's, it's cheap. I don't know what virtue he accumulated in his previous life, he casually drew third-rate comics, and opened a website, and he made so much money at once.

Small money, a lot of small money!

Lin Qianjun was a little jealous. He is a senior executive of the Japanese branch, and he gets a double salary, and the parent company ignores a few thousand yuan a month. Japan has an annual salary of 10 million yen, which is already considered a high salary, but ...... manga "One Punch Man" is worth his annual salary for a hundred years.

If it were Hu Wenhai, it would definitely be unbearable.

However, whoever calls him Lin Qianjun, his temper is far better than Hu Wenhai. And, that little devil is no longer bull*, now. It's also under his control.

In the small partner (Japanese) online online co., LTD., there are presidents, CEOs, directors and other leaders. However, Lin Qianjun is also a high-powered, editor-in-chief of the Little Partner (Japanese) Online Group. For the content of the platform, he basically has the power of life and death, and can decide to sign any work, in addition, he also has the right to cut in half and terminate the contract.

Of course, he is a man of knots. Unlike Hu Wenhai.

Hu Wenhai, as the deputy editor-in-chief of content, Nima's, is in charge of music.

Nima's, this is too cunning. The singers who have signed and cultivated are all female singers, all female singers, and all female singers!

Important things, to emphasize three times!

Moreover, Hu Wenhai also said eloquently: "Beautiful female singer." Lori female singer, royal sister female singer, even if you come to find it, I'm not interested in male singers! ”

Envy, jealousy, jealousy, and hatred, the packaging and cultivation of singers is relatively easy, with good looks and certain basic music skills, it is easy to cultivate.

No, Hu Wenhai used his power for personal gain, found a beautiful little girl, and after introducing his online music idol strategy in Japan to the boss, the boss actually expressed interest.

Hu Wenhai even found the song, and there was no technical content at all, it was actually a cover - the song "(Because I am a girl living in the second dimension)".

"(Because I'm a Girl Who Lives in the Second Dimension)" started as a work in the discussion section of "Guys Who Can Compose Come Here". In this section, there are some otaku who have written some lyrics and are seeking help from someone who can compose the music.

This site does not require an account to be registered, and the authors who speak are basically anonymous, only seeing the publisher's floor, but basically no ID information is displayed.

Later, "(Because I'm a Girl Who Lives in the Second Dimension)" was written by Anonymous and composed by Anonymous. Then, the song was created by Hatsune Miku software and uploaded on the Internet.

Of course, the lyrics and songs of Hatsune Miku's version are just improvised, and they don't fit too much with the sad tune of the song.

Therefore, Hu Wenhai said: "The lyrics and songs are ready-made, and we will re-recruit people to arrange the music and make the best version, which will definitely attract the attention of countless otaku!" It's good for the otaku! ”

"How to solve the copyright problem?" Wang Qinian was surprised.

"This song has not registered intellectual property rights with the copyright agency, and the original author is encouraging everyone to cover it. Originally, it was an activity on the Internet that attracted countless people to participate. Hu Wenhai said without a knot.

"Even if there is no registered copyright, according to the customary intellectual property rules of various countries, the intellectual property rights belong to the original author, regardless of whether the author has applied for registration of copyright or not. Suppose, what if suddenly the original author jumps out and starts a copyright lawsuit? Wang Qinian asked.

"We can claim that we hope to find the original author of this song and share the copyright with him." Hu Wenhai said, "If the original author registers the copyright, we can use it as we please, as long as we pay the copyright fee according to the relevant laws!" ”

There are countless music copyrights in the world, and it is difficult for ordinary creators to pursue infringements. As a result, copyright is basically registered with many music associations and copyright societies. The copyright society can then license a large number of copyrights to a single organization. Or you can use only a few copyrights and pay for a single copyright.

To put it simply, if there is no registered copyright, then it is difficult for ordinary music creators to prove that the copyright is their own, and it is difficult to protect their copyright. After registering the copyright, it can be used by many companies around the world, but after using it, you need to pay a royalty.

Payment after use is not an infringement.

For example, the cost of purchasing the right to use music copyright is hundreds of millions of dollars per year, and the copyright in the entire music library is tens of millions of songs, and there are copyrights all over the world. However, these copyrights are mainly registered by some large music companies or professional music creators.

In the next few days, Hu Wenhai found a few little girls to try out "(Because I am a girl living in the second dimension)" and made different versions.

The boss Wang Qinian was even quite interested, and suggested a version of the piano soundtrack, accompanied by anime MAD. The MV made is sensational and tearful.

He is worthy of being the world's top director, and his music literacy is also top-notch!

Just make a little suggestion, and let this version of "(Because I'm a Girl Living in the Second Dimension)" sublimate to the extreme sensationalism.

At least, Lin Qianjun felt like he was almost crying.

This song pokes the g-spot of the otaku.

Although, Lin Qianjun does not recognize his otaku, but, he, Lin Qianjun, packs a ticket, if it is not popular, his name is written upside down! (To be continued.) )
