Chapter 296: Martial Arts Master: Flames of War

Regarding the situation in the overseas market of "Martial Arts Grandmaster", Fan Zhe also received news here.

"Calculated in this way, the entire income of the upper part of "Martial Arts Grandmaster", it is estimated that by the end of the year, how much will it be in total?"

Facing Ye Jiayi, Fan Zhe asked such a sentence.

"The overseas market is 300 million, the domestic TV drama copyright is 250 million, and the current online sales have exceeded 700 million, and it is estimated that it will be able to grow to 8 to 900 million by the end of the year. In this way, the total income should be able to reach about 1.4 billion. ”

"That's good, it's a lot better than expected." Fan Zhe stuffed a piece of jam-coated bread into his mouth and said with satisfaction.

The two of them are now eating breakfast at home.

How to say it, the two of them are now the bosses of a top content company in the industry, with a revenue of billions of dollars a year, and they must be regarded as rich people.

Although Fan Zhe usually has no special requirements for food, drink, clothes or anything, but for comfort, he still spent money to buy a house, in a villa area not far from the company.

The house has three floors and an attic, and the overall style of the house is more modern, with large floor-to-ceiling windows, separate underfloor heating, and a swimming pool, next to which there is a garage for three cars.

It's a mansion.

It will cost hundreds of millions of dollars to buy the whole house, and the annual maintenance fee is still a sum of money.

As for the renovation, it was left over from the previous generation of homeowners. When buying a house, Fan Zhe met him, he was a very stylish old man, who used to be an art business, and sold his house to prepare to go abroad.

The decoration style of the whole house seemed to Fan Zhe and Ye Jiayi to be quite satisfied, so they didn't change it, but replaced it with some new household appliances, furniture and other things.

In the past, Fan Zhe always felt that he didn't care where he lived, as long as there was air conditioning, a bed and a net, it would be over if it didn't freeze or heat.

Later, I bought my own house, I felt that my own home, I could call the shots, and I could decorate it whatever I wanted, and the place was more spacious than when I rented a house, and the whole feeling was different.

Now, living in a luxury villa, the whole environment is so comfortable that it makes people feel completely different.

I hired a nanny at home, and when I got up in the morning, I had a good breakfast, soy milk fritters and buns, yes; Hot milk bread jam steak, too.

Have breakfast and go to the company, drive back ten minutes at noon, you can still sleep, wake up and swim, and go to the company at about three o'clock in the afternoon, and the whole work and life will not be delayed.

It's so comfortable.

At this time, it was about half past eight in the morning, and the two of them were preparing to go to work, and it was normal to talk about work while eating.

Ye Jiayi said: "It is expected that if "Martial Arts Grandmaster" is operated independently, the domestic income can have a target of 500 million yuan and an overseas income of 200 million, which has already reached the target. Now, the entire calculation is about 1.4 billion, and the pure monetary income should not be worse than selling it directly. Moreover, it also paved the way for us to follow. ”

"Well, then do you estimate that there will be many after "Emperor Ruzi"?"

This time, Ye Jiayi did not answer quickly.

"Don't you like it?"

"I can't say the content well, after all, I'm not an expert in this area, and you have more say than me." Ye Jiayi hesitated for a moment, and then added, "However, I have probably watched "The Emperor of the Ruzi", which is completely different from our previous style, I ...... It's really a little worried, and the investment in this drama, to be honest, is not small. ”

Fan Zhe asked: "From the perspective of investment or business alone, what standard do you set for this drama?" ”

"Five hundred million." Ye Jiayi said.

This number looks the same as "Martial Arts Grandmaster", but in fact the difficulty of completing it is completely different.

The upper part of "Martial Arts Grandmaster" was used as a pioneer when the 'Dimension Platform' was poor in terms of video content. From scratch, it is actually very difficult to set a performance standard of 500 million yuan.

But the situation faced by "The Emperor of Ruzi" is completely different, "Martial Arts Grandmaster" has opened the way, and it is a success beyond expectations. In this way, the environment faced by "Emperor Ruzi" is much friendlier than that of "Martial Arts".

In this case, the performance target is set the same as the original "Martial Arts", which is enough to show that Ye Jiayi and the commercial department she leads are really not so good-looking for "Emperor Ruzi".

"It's set pretty low." Fan Zhe said, "However, compared to you, I am more optimistic than you, I think, we always have to do something different." The content of this play, I watched it, I think it's very good, although there are not so many cool special effects, but the plot, shooting, character building, etc., are all very good, and it should not be difficult to complete the goal of 500 million. ”

Ye Jiayi sighed slightly and said, "I hope it can be like what you said...... By the way, how did you talk to Du Zhengde? ”

She was referring to the film project "Martial Arts Grandmaster: War".

"Martial Arts Grandmaster" made a movie, which was something that had been decided when the TV series project was established.

At that time, the suggestion given by the commercial department was to give full play to the IP advantages of Chengdu, and if the results of the TV series can meet expectations, then it is best to make a film work, take advantage of the east wind, and then expand the value of IP copyright.

This suggestion was agreed by Fan Zhe.

At present, judging from the upper part of the "Martial Arts Grandmaster" movie, the results have basically met expectations. In that case, it's time for the film project to be on the agenda.

In this movie, Fan Zhe has no intention of directing it himself. As one of the bosses of the company, he basically needs to control all the content development of Wedo Entertainment. If he devotes himself to one of these projects and becomes a director, he will not be able to take care of other projects.

Fan Zhe himself is not the director of this movie, so naturally he has to find one from the outside.

The first thing he thought of was Du Zhengde.

I have worked together, and the other party is also an old comrade in the industry, and the recent development is also good.

Du Zhengde, who encountered Waterloo and fell into a low point in his career, came back to life in a blink of an eye after filming "Fantasy Three Kingdoms" under Wedo Entertainment. When the spring breeze was proud, he took over the filming of "The Legend of Dragon and Tiger" produced by Huayi, and the heroine was still Una, and the final box office results were also good.

The successive successes have made Du Zhengde one of the new directors who have developed relatively well in the past two years, and even faintly means to enter the ranks of first-line directors.

This is very much in line with the requirements of Wedo Entertainment.

Wedo Entertainment is no longer like before, and it has to deduct its budget and can't afford to hire big-name stars and directors. Now, the best is done!
