Chapter 288: The Sale of the Gap Between Heaven and Hell (Part I)

Anyway, asking a celebrity to endorse a new book, it seems that this kind of thing has never happened to either the earth or this shijie in the previous life, is it really reliable to do so? The most important thing is that celebrities are not easy to invite, those who are not famous have no influence, and Hollywood superstars who are too famous can open the market and gain a lot of popularity, but the advertising fee is too scary, is it really necessary?

"No, there's a better way." Wang Ni said categorically.

"More haode way?" Su Shichen's body sank into the sofa, his chin raised slightly, and motioned for Wang Ni to continue.

"You don't need to invite celebrities, you can directly advertise on the United States TV station, this is the simplest, direct and effective method."

"No endorsement, direct advertising." Repeating Wang Ni's words in his mouth, the ideological barrier in Su Shichen's head seemed to be pierced like a layer of window paper, "Yes, it's so stupid...... We can make a promotional stunt video like the "Flood Series" book. ”

As soon as this idea came out, one by one inspiration drilled into his head, "It's okay, the plot of "The Frozen Throne" is too complicated, and it is difficult to make people interested in a few minutes, so it is completely possible to make a game CG animation to introduce the heroes one by one. ”

Think about watching the heroes of Warcraft appear on TV, Arthas who became the Lich King, Sargeras, the king of all demons, who is known as the strongest in the universe, Egwen, the guardian, Deathwing, etc., I don't believe that these characters are shown one by one and can't conquer the rice guys.

Of course, inspiration shouldn't just stop there......

"And Warcraft is not only a huge war, but also an exhilarating heads-up. I remember that in my previous life, someone on Earth selected the top ten heads-up rankings of Warcraft, and then in the promotional animation, they could do exactly that, on the Frozen Throne. Concerto of Ice and Fire - The Great War between Alsace and Illidan; One of the most glorious battles of mortals in the history of Azeroth, standing in front of the gods - Broxs vs. Sacrath; The battle for self-redemption, the battle between Hellroar and Maronos, etc., can be used as material for CG animation. ”

The heads-up picture always makes people's blood boil, and the more Su Shichen thinks about it, the more he feels that this method is very feasible.

Just make such a promotional CG animation, and the fight between heroes and heroes can make people's blood boil. Only between artifacts and artifacts can there be bright sparks.

"Yes, when it comes to CG animation, you can't forget the soundtrack. The soundtrack of this CG animation is naturally the legendary "Overture to the Dead". ”

In the previous life, there were all kinds of background music interludes in "Warcraft" on Earth, and there were many shocking ones, but Su Shichen thought that this "Overture to the Dead" was the most classic. That feeling of erupting in repression. It's like Beethoven's symphony of fate.

Su Shichen muttered to himself alone for a long time before he came back to his senses.

got up from the sofa and asked solemnly, "Auntie, this method is very good, it's worth a try, but will there be any problems with the operation, and there will be no problem in animation, because I have cooperated with Xingyue Studio very happily in the "Flood Series" and "Slam Dunk" before. I am also in constant contact with Tang Xing, but will it be ...... to advertise on Mi Guo TV?"

Wang Ni said bluntly: "No." Mi Guo TV and Huaxia TV. Even if the former is more expensive, it is almost the same in general convenience, as long as there is enough advertising money, it can be played without violating the contract. ”

"Okay, then do it, try to see if you can promote the country, even if you can't improve it, but this kind of publicity is also helpful for visibility, and it is beneficial and harmless." Wang Ni and Su Shichen can be said to be both actioners, and after the two discussed their ideas, they went their separate ways.

Wang Ni contacted the advertising of the United States TV station, but Su Shichen wanted to discuss with Tang Xing about the CG promotional animation of "The Frozen Throne", the image of the characters in Warcraft has long been fixed, although Su Shichen can now make all your characters more handsome and beautiful, but in the end Su Shichen decided to follow the original, so he drew a lot of drawings for Tang Xing.

"I didn't expect Writer Su to be so busy with writing, and his painting skills are still not falling at all, and they are still of the same high level." Tang Xing can be said to have been surprised by Su Shichen's behavior for a long time, because the last two collaborations were already like this, the first time "Flood Series" was fortunately only put forward some suggestions, and the second time "Slam Dunk" can be said to have been completely mastered.

"Actually, I want to show this promotional video like this......" Su Shichen told Tang Xing all his general requirements, and these requirements were all excerpts from the previous life Earth Warcraft CG movies and Warcraft anime, the reason is that this promotional video is more important, the requirements are more detailed, and they talked for more than 30 minutes, and fortunately, the two of them were about to drink coffee in the café and talk about things.

"Writer Su, in fact, if you don't write novels in the future, you can come to our business." Although he knew that it was impossible, Tang Xing couldn't help but say this, "The requirements you just said, as well as the points of attention, are completely like the pictures that have been generated in your head, this kind of simulation ability, Su Writer, you are definitely the top among the people I have ever seen." ”

"Boss Tang has won the award, and this promotional video is quite important, so I think about it more."

"Okay, I've probably memorized all these conditions, and what other requirements are there?"

"By the way, I also made a tune about the soundtrack of this promotional video." Su Shichen handed the recorded "Overture to the Dead" to Tang Xing.

Tang Xing doesn't know what to say now, this time the promotional animation is all done by Su Shichen from the rhythm, picture to character design, their studio is like a puppet, this is not counting the fact that even the music is interfering now, Tang Xing is a little unconvinced in his heart.

The plot is powerful because Su Shichen himself is a writer and a screenwriter, and the picture is powerful because Su Shichen is still a cartoonist, but he doesn't believe that even the composition is so powerful, Tang Xing made up his mind that he must make a more suitable song than this "Prologue of the Dead".

After discussing goodbye with Su Shichen, he returned to the studio, recruited the friends of the studio, and explained the task to them, and these friends were all excited to write music through this story.

Of course, the first thing is to listen to Su Shichen's song "Overture to the Dead...... As a result, well, they were conquered.

I have to admit that this "Overture to the Dead" is the most suitable, not to mention changing, even on the basis of the original plan, it cannot be changed at all, Tang Xing's conclusion is that this "Overture of the Dead" seems to be born for this promotional film, okay, this matter is undoubtedly a deep blow to Xingyue Studio......

There is a disaster called "The Frozen Throne", it is not the reader who has a deep understanding of this sentence, but the author, originally the genre of Western fantasy is still quite marketable in China, so there are still a lot of Western fantasy readers, this time due to the confrontation of this Western fantasy novel, this theme has become popular again, so many fantasy writers have released new books, everything is very beautiful, and the sales are also good.

However, the days of beauty will not last long, the release of "The Frozen Throne" is different from the two books "Song of the Stars" and "The Real Outsider", although these two books are hot and have stolen a certain market share, but they have also activated the market, but "The Frozen Throne" is different, this book is like a beast that eats people and does not spit out bones, and it is completely alive to plunder the share of the rest of the books.

According to an incomplete investigation, since the launch of "The Frozen Throne", the sales of the rest of the fantasy novels have plummeted to two-fifths, which is completely unsatisfactory to the rhythm of life, and many authors are crying when they are interviewed by reporters.

If the curse could kill, Su Shichen would have died hundreds of times by now.

Now the people in the streets are not talking about "Song of the Stars" or "The Outsider Series", but names like Alsace and Illidan.

This is still China, as for the island country......

Tsinghua University, the stage behind the school, was urged by Li Dongfang to come to rehearse early this morning.

"Isn't it just an evening party? Don't be in such a hurry, as if you're urging your life. Su Shichen said he couldn't understand.

"Of course we have to hurry, the stage seniors also need to use rehearsals, and today is just the time, so it's our turn to be freshmen, so don't delay the time." At the urging of the senior class leader, the rehearsal was carried out without hurry.

The school's band still has a certain strength, so this rehearsal can be said to be quite successful.

After the rehearsal, on the way home, Su Shichen received a call from Wang Ni.

"Regarding the release of the promotional video of "The Frozen Throne", I have already negotiated with a TV station, what about you Xiao Chen?"

"Well, I've also negotiated with Xingyue Studio, and it's probably already in production." Su Shichen said, "The promotional video is very short, and I asked them to do it with all their might, and it was completed correctly in a short time." ”

"Well, the sooner you put publicity in the United States, the more you can sell books." Wang Ni considered the problem very comprehensively.

"That's why I think the same way, so I will increase the price so that they can speed up without compromising the quality."

"There is one more thing on this call, the sales of the first day of "The Frozen Throne" have been counted."

Su Shichen was still quite concerned about the sales, and couldn't help asking, "How much?" ”
