Chapter 178: Want to Exclusive Pre-Broadcast Qualifications?
The next day, at 10:30 a.m.
As soon as Meng Shu arrived at the company, put down the coffee, and before he even turned on the computer, Director Lian called V-letter.
This means that there is news from her side.
Listening to the hurried ringtone, Meng Shu turned on the phone and pressed the answer.
[Good morning Mr. Meng, there is news about the stage virtual technology you want.] ]
The familiar voice of Director Lian came from the other side of the phone.
Obviously, this so-called news should satisfy him.
Meng Shu picked up the coffee, took a sip, and asked softly.
"yes, tell me about it."
Director Mercy spoke immediately.
[Mr. Meng, the special effects stage play you mentioned is the performance of virtual characters. We communicated with the C company over there, and they expressed their willingness to provide on-site technical support to help you complete this stage effect! ]
[But they have one condition.] ]
Condition?
Stand to reason.
When Meng Shu heard this, he didn't feel strange.
The other party is a Dongying capitalist, who is in charge of nearly half of the virtual idols in his country. There are countless fans, frequent advertisements, and frequent activities.
With such a company size, if they are free and free, then Meng Shu will be a little worried.
But since the request has been made, it is easy to say.
Equivalent exchange, or bargaining for purchase, is fine.
After all, it's the deal.
"Tell me what the conditions."
Director Pian paused, then spoke.
[They want you to pre-qualify the next game... Only give them one, so ... They are willing to provide technical services free of charge. ]
After Meng Shu heard this, he smiled a little speechlessly.
"Meaning, does C want to monopolize the pre-broadcast qualifications, so how did you get back?"
Director Mercy did not hesitate, answered quickly, and reported truthfully.
[We can't do this kind of thing, and Dongying thinks that the game is developed by our infinite online entertainment.] So we said we needed to think about it and call you right away to ask for advice. ]
Meng Shu nodded and pondered.
C Company wants to monopolize the pre-broadcast qualification of the next game, and it is obvious that it has tasted the sweetness from "Control Failure".
But Dongying also has an H company, and the two are competitors.
This is an unfair business competition for them.
Once C company gets the pre-broadcast qualification for the new game, and H company doesn't have it.
That situation, to say the least, will be one-sided.
But this is not the main thing, no matter who the pre-broadcast qualification is for, Meng Shu doesn't care.
He cares about the player base. Initial Update@
C Club has pre-broadcast qualifications, so the fan base of C Club is naturally very happy.
But what should fans of H Society do?
Let them give up the virtual anchor they pushed and go to C to watch it.
This is obviously not good.
This practice of C Society directly affects gamers, and players have their own preferences, and there are many loyal fans of virtual idols under C and H Society. So for Meng Shu, since the main player group is the main group, fans on both sides must be taken care of.
Either you don't treat everyone equally, everyone has it.
Either they just refuse together, and no one has it.
So Meng Shu took a sip of coffee and opened his mouth to refuse.
"Monopolizing this matter, there is nothing to talk about, I refuse."
"I don't have any feelings about H Club as a company, but I don't want to give up on the gamer fans who like H Club. So there's no need to do such a thankless thing for the sake of this little benefit. Find a way to compromise and communicate more between the two companies. β
"If it really doesn't work, don't look for them. We also have virtual anchors in China, so there must be operating companies as well. You can look for them. β
The director on the other end of the phone seemed to have expected this to say this, so he just laughed dryly.
But after a deep sigh, she still put forward her opinion.
[Mr. Meng, is it possible... We agreed to the conditions of the C Society, giving them exclusive qualifications. And then on the H side, we can sell them the pre-broadcast qualification of the game, what do you think? ]
Meng Shu chuckled. (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 178: Want to Exclusive Pre-Broadcast Qualifications?
, put down the coffee, and wiped the coffee stains from the side of his mouth.
He didn't expect Director Pity to say such a thing, which really surprised him.
If you can get some money from H Society, that's naturally good.
It's just that...
"Neither company is stupid."
Meng Shu responded.
[Uh... All right. ]
Director Pian was a little embarrassed.
[I see, I'll talk to them again.] ]
"Well, okay, excuse me, Director. However, if they still mention the monopoly, you can directly refuse it, this is not negotiable. β
[Okay, I see, I'm going to keep in touch with them now.] ]
After a few polite words, the two hung up the phone.
Pity the supervisor to do things, Meng Shu is still very relieved.
She doesn't make decisions on her own, she is very obedient and easy to call, and her own supervisor position also has a certain right to speak in the company.
It's so convenient for him to take care of some of his own work needs.
It's a pity that she belongs to someone else's company.
But it doesn't matter, if you can help him.
Shaking his head, Meng Shu walked out with the USB flash drive containing the PPT of "Dead Space", and asked Fang Yuancheng, Xia Nianzhen and a large number of new employees to have a meeting in the conference room.
β¦
An hour later, the meeting ended.
Meng Shu returned to the office and took a sip of water.
Just now, he gave a rough explanation of the "Dead Space" demo version and the E3 exhibition.
And asked art director Fang Yuancheng to arrange for colleagues to complete this demo version.
At the same time, the art style and monster modeling are briefly explained so that they can understand clearly.
He also told them that although this is not a key project, it must be given priority to the temporary E3 exhibition.
The progress of the VR version of "Gloomy Forest" can be slowed down.
Then, I went back to the office and got to work.
Virtual special effects stage plays, you don't have to worry about it, just leave it to those technology companies.
But the motion capture actors and directors of the stage play are still needed.
He can provide scripts, but not actors.
Moreover, stage plays are different from film and television dramas, and the director's command is different.
A shocking performance, the most important thing is the interpretation of the characters and the combination of music.
The most immediate shock in "Dead Space" is the armor covering process of the protagonist Isaac, and if it can be shown in front of the audience as a virtual image at the E3 exhibition, it will be a lore.
It's just that the director hasn't been determined yet, and the special effects can only wait for the crew to settle down. @η²Ύε\/Shuge Error-free Debut~~
Therefore, he had to find an experienced stage director.
After thinking about it, he tried to contact the Shadow Studio, which had filmed the pseudo-documentary FBC-0087 "Anomaly Stairwell".
As a result, after a few words, the other party said that he was powerless.
Because the Magic Shadow Studio mainly shoots commercials, the last time I made a pseudo-documentary was already beyond the program.
In addition, I have no experience as a director of stage plays, so I am worried that I will not be able to eat this order. So I can only apologize euphemistically, saying that there is nothing I can do.
This made Meng Shu sigh a little, saying that it didn't matter.
Then he approached Blue Eagle Studios, which had previously been in charge of the motion capture filming of "Control Failure".
But after thinking about it, considering the situation in the Shadow Studio, he still didn't call it.
It was only now that Boss Meng found that he had very few paths.
If you have any needs before, you will tell Director Lian, and then the other party will do it.
Now I'm going to go out by myself, but I can't find the road, which is really embarrassing.
Meng Shu rubbed his temples, took a sip of water, and then picked up his mobile phone and sent a V message to Director Pian.
[Help, introduce me to a director who has experience in stage plays.] It doesn't need to be very famous, it can be both second- and third-rate. But you have to be a good communicator and be willing to accept my ideas. ]
[You can be younger, don't have your own personal style, and it's best to run in as soon as possible.] ]
Meng Shu sent two words in a row and exhaled.
At the same time, also thinking. (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 178: Want to Exclusive Pre-Broadcast Qualifications?
It's time to hire a secretary to take care of these chores.
Now the reason why I continue to ask the director is nothing more than that the other party can use the name of unlimited online entertainment to find almost first-class resources.
If you want to cultivate one on your own, it may take some time. Although they don't have many resources, they are people from their own company.
Anyway, take your time.
As for the secretary ...
Meng Shu once again recalled the secretary who helped him share chores in the original world, that is, the 40-year-old Sister Zhang.
Although he is old, he is experienced and resolute, and he can be called his best helper. Initial Update@
If you want to recruit a secretary, then you must naturally recruit such a person.
At work, he doesn't care if he looks good or not, whether he is young or not.
He only cares about whether he can do it, whether it is suitable or not, and whether he has the ability.
That's all.
Soon, Director Lian sent a reply.
[Okay.] ]
Looking at the simple reply, Meng Shu knew that it was very difficult to find a suitable director, and he did not expect her to find a candidate in a day or two.
Unexpectedly, the next day, Director Lian called.
This time, it brought two pieces of good news.
This shows that the stage director and Dongying are OK!
[Mr. Meng, there are two good news, one is about virtual technology, and the other is about the director you asked me to find. ]
When Meng Shu heard this, he was overjoyed.
The efficiency of the poor supervisor is a little high.
"So fast? It's really hard for you, how did it turn out. β
Director Pian snorted lightly and hurriedly spoke.
[Yesterday, after you rejected the request of C Company, the person in charge of overseas promotion of our Unlimited Online Entertainment personally went to do further communication and invited the person in charge of C Company and H Company to have a video conference. ]
[I talked to the two of them for more than an hour, and finally succeeded.] Company C and Company H decided to cooperate with the two companies to provide on-site virtual technical support for this exhibition. ]
Director Lian's tone was quick, and he finished such a long sentence in one breath.
But his speech was clear and methodical, and Meng Shu did not miss anything.
That's what professionalism is.
However, when the two companies work together, there are definitely requirements.
Director Lian must know this.
But she still said that this is good news, which means that this request should not be too outrageous.
"What are the requirements from their side."
After hearing this, Director Pian did not answer immediately.
Instead, he picked up something, made the sound of paper, and then spoke.
[The two of them want your next game to be promoted by paying a promotion fee to help them promote it, as other companies do.] ]
[They don't want to pay for it themselves, as in "Control Failure."] ]
[They also said that it was a pity that they were blind to "Sky Mountain" at that time, and hoped to use this incident to make friends and enjoy the normal cooperation with other companies.] ]
Hearing this, Rao is Meng Shu couldn't help laughing.
There was also a smile from Director Pity's side.
Obviously, Dongying's C and H companies also know their own situation.
Pre-broadcast qualifications, whether on the danmaku network, or on other platforms. Even low-level anchors at home and abroad do not do this kind of thing for free.
Instead, Infinite Online Entertainment paid a large amount of money for them to broadcast, so there was a pre-broadcast promotion.
At the beginning, Infinite Online Entertainment paid for C and H to pre-broadcast "Sky Mountain". These two companies are arrogant, sitting on the ground and raising prices, and the lion opens his mouth.
And the person in charge of the promotion of Infinite Network Entertainment is not a fool, he threw his hand on the spot, no matter how many virtual beautiful girls you have, I directly chose the casual virtual anchor.
As a result, this move made those low-level and middle-level Vtubers in Dongying happy. Not only do you have money, but you can also take advantage of the wind of VR games to absorb the amount of waves, which is like killing two birds with one stone!
Especially some female anchors, on the day of the pre-broadcast, took advantage of the unprecedented VR game "Sky Mountain" to make the originally sluggish popularity and number of fans in their live broadcast room rise. (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 178: Want to Exclusive Pre-Broadcast Qualifications?
Hundreds of unimaginable co-connections and large-amount SC came one after another.
The envy of these two companies.
In order to make up for it, C and H directly rushed to get the pre-broadcast qualification before the release of "Control Failure".
But this kind of self-payment behavior cannot be done every time.
So now, C and H also want to use this time to provide technical support for the stage play to resume normal cooperation and promotion.
That is, you pay for it, and we promote it live.
This is actually understandable, and Meng Shu can understand it.
So he replied with a smile.
"That's fine, I can accept it, as long as they make sure that there are no problems throughout the show, and at the same time, safety first. Error-free updates @"
[We followed up, and the two of them also promised that after all, they have done so many virtual concerts, and there should be no problem.] ]
"That's good, thank you, Director."
"By the way, what's the other good news, have you found the right director?"
[Yes.] ]
Director Mercy replied very definitely this time.
[I asked, and there is indeed an experienced stage director who is very suitable for your requirements. I'll send you his phone later, I would have liked to talk to him about the situation on your behalf. But the details are up to you. γ
"Okay, thank you, for helping me a lot."
[You're welcome Mr. Meng, this is what I should have done. ]
Director Pian smiled.
After hanging up the phone, Meng Shu received the director's contact information and a photo of his business card from Director Lian.
The director's surname is Li, and Meng Shu checked Director Li's resume on the Internet according to his business card.
It was discovered that he was a legal person of a media company, and he had directed the famous children's stage play "Full of Stars", as well as the youth open-air stage play "Future Dream Team", and even "Discipline", a large-scale musical and dance drama that had been performed on foreign stages.
From this point of view, this stage director is indeed very capable, although he has never seen any of these stage plays.
Meng Shu smiled, picked up the script, and immediately dialed the number.
