Chapter 185: I Hate "Nepotism"

He Xi, the leader of Dunhuang's screenwriting team, felt that he had really endured too much.

Since Wang Wei hung the carrot of "Superhero Cinematic Universe" in front of his eyes, he has not had a moment of ease.

After studying for more than half a year, watching countless superhero comics, superhero animations and superhero movies, and even dreaming that superheroes are fighting, he feels more and more that the "superhero universe" has a lot to offer-

With different superheroes as the protagonists, they pave the way with easter eggs between each part, each independent but linked to each other, constantly extending the vitality of the cinematic universe.

When the prototype of the superhero universe was set up in his mind, the main copyright target was also taken care of - it was one of the three major animation companies in China, Chasing Light Comics Company.

Among the other two, Ogilvy Comics started a crazy extension of mergers and acquisitions in order to go public, and then took on huge debts; In order to repay his debts, he has already sold out the copyrights of many of his classic IPs, and most of them have fallen into the hands of the Big Five.

Although the Big Five failed to fully exploit their potential, He Xi didn't feel a chance to snatch food from the Big Five.

As for Longyou Comics, it has been hooking up with Tang Yu Media, which can basically be regarded as Tang Yu's dish.

Only light-chasing comics remain.

With the rise of new entertainment methods such as video games, comics are no longer popular with young people, and the company once mortgaged its IP copyright to the bank for the sake of money.

However, to He Xi's surprise, after Tao Kang, the new general manager of Chasing Light Comics, took office, he found a way to recover most of the core copyrights one after another.

After visiting on behalf of Dunhuang, He Xi didn't know whether he was surprised or delighted, because the other party actually had similar thoughts-

Assemble its comic characters, relate to each other and unify under a large enough structure, and carry out film and television to create a "Legend of the Heroes of the Light Chaser"!

But when you think about it, it doesn't seem too surprising.

In fact, in the comic industry, characters have long been teamed up to fight monsters, but no one wants to put it on the big screen.

In the film and television industry, for the sake of money, screenwriters, directors and producers have been thinking about serializing film and television almost all year round.

After all, with the first work as the foundation, the safety factor of the sequel is much greater than that of a purely original work.

Naturally, this is also seen by comic book companies.

keenly, he naturally realized that he had natural serialized adaptation materials in his hands.

Tao Kang, the general manager of Chasing Light Comics, is undoubtedly keen.

However, the path he envisioned for film and television did not start with films.

There's no way, the cost of adapting a movie is too great, not to mention chasing the light that is having a hard time now, even in its heyday, it is not an easy thing to adapt into a movie.

In this case, adapting it into an animation seems to be the only option.

- This animation is not an animated movie, but a TV animation.

Because compared to exquisite animated movies, the cost of general TV animation is much lower than that of movies or even general TV series.

In short, first adapt the feature-length animation, and then adapt it into a live-action movie when it is appropriate - this is the film and television road of the "Qunxia Universe" planned by Tao Kang.

Naturally, after only meeting once, the two people with similar ideas fell in love with each other - only in the idea.

Because, He Xi just showed a little intention of acquisition, and Tao Kang immediately "refused".

Oh no, it should be "weak rejection" -

Unlike He Xi, who is focused on the box office of the movie, Tao Kang is more concerned about the surrounding development.

And it is difficult to generate too much peripheral income by relying on the comics themselves, after all, the communication power is limited.

Only by turning it into film and television can we expand our communication power and open up the surrounding market.

The best film and television is of course to make high-quality live-action films, as He Xi said.

This is the most effective plan for promotion, but it is also the most costly, time-consuming and laborious plan - don't think too much about it.

The second thing is that it's animated.

The question is here - not to mention the gap in overall strength, just look at animation production, broadcast channels and peripheral development, where can Dunhuang compare to Lianya Entertainment?

He Xi was speechless.

In fact, he also thinks that compared with his original "original comics-movie" development process, the other party's "original comics-TV animation-live-action movie" triple jump structure may be a little better.

After all, superhero movies require a lot of visual effects, and the production cost is really too high, so it's better to try it out with TV animation first.

However, when it comes to animation, Lianya Entertainment is like a mountain, standing between Dunhuang and Chasing Light Comics.

To put it bluntly, even if you want to sell your body, you only want to sell your body once, and Dunhuang's thighs are obviously not thick enough.

Tao Kang even reversed, wanting to dig him up, which made He Xi cry and laugh.

What's even more frustrating is that in the face of light-chasing comics that take the initiative to seek cooperation, Lianya Entertainment said that it will look at it - no-!!

Lianya Entertainment's own TV animations adapted from myths, legends, and historical stories can't be developed, so how can they bother to develop superhero animations with more general light-chasing influence?

Do you think Tao Kang is going to turn around?

No, he still wants to "lick" Lianya Entertainment.

Because he is not only a businessman, but also an avid animation enthusiast, even if Dunhuang bids higher, he still focuses on "making good works" - at that time, Dunhuang had no achievements in animation, and it was only just recovering in movies.

Until Toy Story came!

For the time being, no one knows what kind of far-reaching impact this 3D animated film will have on live-action films.

But as Lianya Entertainment also began to transform, the internal personnel turmoil made it even more difficult to deal with the light chasing comics.

Tao Kang finally looked at Dunhuang.

The construction of the "Super British Universe" showed a glimmer of light, and He Xi was of course happy, but at the same time a little depressed-

"Just because of a "Toy Story", you changed your mind?"

I knew that if I threw this movie in front of him, I wouldn't have to spend so much saliva.

Well, he didn't know that his animation production level was so high, so high that it ushered in a new era as soon as he made a move.

Tao Kang shook his head: "What really changed my mind was that Teacher Ma joined you!" ”

"Teacher Ma?"

"Animation master Ma Qingshi, when I first entered the industry, I interned under him, but he scolded me miserably, thinking that I was not suitable for the animation industry." Tao Kang showed a look of reminiscence.

The corners of He Xi's mouth twitched: "......"

So is you a masochist?

"Later, he also recommended me to enter the light-chasing comics, and now, I have become the leader of light-chasing." Tao Kang continued.

Okay, so you changed your mind because of his kindness?

Tao Kang continued: "Mr. Ma is a person who strives for excellence, since he has chosen to join you, it means that the strength of your company is much stronger than I expected, in this case, why don't I consider joining you?" ”

This is the first time he has revealed his intention to join in front of He Xi.

But He Xi just wants to hehe-

I thought it was my perseverance, my unprecedented concept, and the most unfortunate thing was that it was the sympathy between us that made you "return to your heart";

As a result, you tell me, it's all because of ...... "nepotism"??

Hateful! Can it still give people a sense of accomplishment?

……

Gan! Swollen back to the evening update???
