Chapter 780: Mythology, Filming Officially Begins
When Chen Ming, Situ Kong, and Xia Zhihe chatted about the mid-season tournament and the Star Invitational Tournament, their expressions were confused.
Can you still play like this?
Chen explained: "There is only one major event a year, which is actually a waste of the enthusiasm of the players. ”
"After each spring game, there is a little more than a month of rest in between, and the team doesn't train again until the summer season starts."
"It's a little over a month to organize a mid-season tournament."
"The mid-season competition can't be more gold than the grand final, but trophies will also be awarded."
"The Star Invitational Tournament is mostly entertaining, and after the exciting finals, it is very reasonable to organize an entertainment competition for players to relax and be happy."
Xia Zhihe himself is the planner.
After listening to Chen Ming's words, he immediately understood.
Chen's suggestion is feasible!
Any move is made to maintain the popularity of the game.
The Mid-Season and Celebrity Invitational serve this purpose.
Not only that, but with these two new events, you can also add two huge event revenues.
Chen Ming took a sip of tea and sighed: "Since the income of game companies depends on selling skins, then you can make championship skins for the teams that win the championship on the finals stage every year, and let players buy them." ”
"You don't need to advertise the new skin, the champion team can't help but spread it around, after all, it's a symbol of his honor."
"Stupid!"
"It's stupid!"
Chen Ming has no talent for business.
Everything he said was based on the planning and operation of Riot in his previous life, and people used their actual experience to tell everyone that this method would work.
If Chen Ming was born and raised in the land of China, it would be normal to think of it.
But Situ Kong and Xia Zhihe are the bosses of game companies, and they can't think of this, so they shouldn't think of it.
Xia Zhihe blushed rarely.
He really didn't think of Chen Ming's suggestion!
Their planning department usually plans skin activities, and they don't think about it.
Now listening to Chen Mingyi's words, I suddenly have a sense of understanding.
But soon, Xia Zhihe's expression was a little embarrassed: "What Mr. Chen said makes sense, but it also takes money to hold the event, can you lend us a little?" ”
.........
There are three main costs for holding events, the first is the event bonus; The second is the rental fee for the venue where the event will be held; The last one is responsible for the accommodation and food of the contestants.
All in all, the expenses are not small.
Hearing this, Chen Ming understood.
I really want the company to be really poor and have no money.
Thinking of this, Chen Ming asked curiously, "How much to borrow?" ”
Xia Zhihe looked at Situ Kong, this kind of thing, I still have to let Situ Kong say it.
Situ Kong thought for a moment embarrassedly and said, "Two hundred million." ”
It's already August.
Mid-season doesn't need to be considered.
It won't be until next year at the earliest.
At present, the place where the company wants to spend money is the production of the animated version of the MV of the KDA girl group, and the global finals starting in October.
If you still have money after the finals, you can consider the Star Invitational Tournament.
After all, 200 million is barely enough.
Chen Ming was not too surprised when he heard this number.
"Yes."
Chen Ming agreed without the slightest hesitation.
In an instant, Situ Kong and Xia Zhihe smiled.
Chen Ming, what a good person!
"I have a request, though."
"Can you design a skin for me in the game?"
Chen Ming smiled innocently.
Although he doesn't play games very often, it's definitely a pleasure to have an exclusive skin in League of Legends.
How are the sales?
Chen Ming doesn't care.
Others don't play this skin, he plays it when he is alone.
This is equivalent to Chen Ming leaving his own footprints in the game.
Full of honor!
Xia Zhihe didn't think about it, and directly agreed: "No problem!" I'm done talking to the skin design team, and I'm going to try to get the skin online when the next game version is updated. ”
Subsequently, Chen Ming directly transferred 200 million to Situ Kong.
Looking at the balance in the card, Situ Kong couldn't help but keep murmuring: "Good guy, what a good guy!" ”
At this moment, Chen Ming seems to have become a great benevolent person.
Until Chen Ming left Jixiang Company, Situ Kong looked at his benefactor with a look.
To be honest, it's not that Xia Zhihe can't think of these plans.
When he was given a year or two, when everything in the game was developed and matured, Xia Zhihe could also think of these mid-season games and other related plans.
But the problem is, the company is short of money right now!
Very short of money!! They don't have any other revenue stream other than selling skins.
In this case, Chen Ming told Situ Kong and Xia Zhihe about these plans in advance, which can be regarded as selling a favor to the company.
After leaving the company, Chen Ming returned to the hotel for a night's rest.
Following.
Chen Ming hurried to the headquarters.
"Mythology" is about to start filming!
He wants to hurry up and work with Li Youwei to set the role in the play.
A few days later, all the crew members were decided.
This filming is still funded by the company, so in terms of selecting actors, there is no deliberate avoidance of high-paid actors.
The directors are still those three.
Chen Ming plays Yi Xiaochuan.
Sun Qingxuan plays Yushu.
Xiao Xuan plays Gao Lan, who is also Xiaoyue in her previous life.
The role of Lu Su is a little difficult to decide, Li Youwei chose for a long time, and decided to invite Nanni, the heroine who had partnered with Chen Ming to shoot "The Beginning".
In "The Beginning", Li Shiqing, played by Nanni, has a strong performance, not like a college student who has not yet graduated, which left a deep impression on the audience.
The point is that she is simple enough to perform.
It is very fitting to let such a person play the gentle role of Lu Su.
Besides
The casting of other roles basically does not look at the salary, only the acting skills.
For example, Bai Yi who plays Xiang Yu; Another example is Ji Lin, who plays the role of Gao Yao........
Bai Yi's age does not match Xiang Yu's.
But his muscles are too compatible with Xiang Yu.
As for Ji Lin,
The gold content of the actor does not need to be said.
The only thing that makes Chen Ming a little regretful is that Qin Lianyi was not prepared for a suitable role in the play.
Chen Ming originally planned to ask Qin Lianyi to play Lu Su's sister, Lu Pheasant.
But Li Youwei's suggestion was to invite a young actress of the same age as Nanni, so Chen Ming's plan could only be abandoned.
All arrangements are in place, and all the actors are invited.
This time
Chen Ming did not invite Tong Ran, Du Keke, Zhou Yi and Song Meng.
All four of them have something to do, and they can't spare time.
On the day the role was decided, the live-action MV of the KDA girl group was also filmed, and then only the editing work was handed over to a special person to be responsible.
The next day,
All the crew set off for Kyoto Studios.
"Mythology" officially starts filming!
