In autumn, the weather in the magic capital continues to heat up.

Xia Yan also returned to the magic capital at the end of September, he has been studying in the past few years, and his career has jumped back and forth in two directions, although he finally got off the list at the end of the university, but strictly speaking, his energy in the past few years is far less beautiful than outsiders imagine.

Everyone in the two-dimensional industry thinks that Xia Yan is famous, young and promising, and at the age of twenty-one, he established Xia Tang Animation, a legendary new star company in the Dragon Kingdom animation industry, and single-handedly raised the influence of Beizhou Comics Company and Liuli Book Society to the first place in the Dragon Kingdom.

It is now the holder of the first record in the field of BD, ratings, and manga in the field of bd, ratings, and the average sales of single volume in the field.

Of course, the success of his career represents the extreme boredom of Xia Yan's life.

If Xia Yan is in the 996 work mode one day, it means that Xia Yan has a relatively small amount of work and study this week, and has been suppressed for several years, which can be regarded as a bottoming out.

Although his trip of less than three months was temporarily suspended under Tang Yin's persuasion, when he returned to the Demon Capital, he only recovered the serialization of Sword Art Online and Full-time Hunter.

The update of one or two thousand words a week and the creation of a one-word storyboard draft are very easy for Xia Yan to end these works now.

As for the creation of the four animations in Xia Tang Animation, Xia Yan will not interfere too much now.

Of course, like the original classic BGM of the two works of Slam Dunk and Steelmaking in the parallel world animation, such as the old version of "Brother" of Steel, and the classic "Three Belts" of Slam Dunk, Xia Yan will definitely come up with it.

It's not that he doesn't believe in the creative strength of the local musicians in the Dragon Country, but Xia Yan just instinctively resists the risk.

There is a high probability that the music team under his command will not be able to surpass the original music by finding someone to make his own music, and there is a very small probability that it can go to the next level than the original BGM.

Therefore, it is said to let go of his hands and feet and let his subordinates play freely, but these two animation works that Xia Yan values the most, BGM, Xia Yan has arranged at least one-third of the workload.

Then there's the character aspect

The animation style of the steel forge can be adjusted, such as making the design more beautiful.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with the protagonists, and the characters of the two brothers, Edward and Alphons, are reserved.

It's the supporting characters.

It's all big round faces, and the presence of an obvious heroine like Wendy

Why find ten passers-by in the work, at least two or three will be more beautiful than her.

The heroine must have a painting style that matches the heroine, and she can't have a passerby's face.

So in this regard, Xia Yan has also made certain adjustments.

The rest of the animation storyboards, rhythms and whatnot, are all handed over to the top animation team dug by their subordinates.

The salary of millions of dollars a year is not for nothing, Xia Yan invited them to come and open such a high salary, not to let these people restore these works in the parallel world to the same level as the original works

Rather, it's better.

So in this regard, Xia Yan can't restrict them too much.

Of course, the deeper reason is that Xia Yan doesn't want to affect the work of his subordinates too much.

is a big boss of a company worth billions of dollars, and he also takes care of the work of his subordinates, which is really not necessary, it will put too much pressure on them.

And the animation production progress of this piece.

Xia Tang animation is not to say.

After all, Xia Yan has enough money and enough bonuses, and after the rebellious Lu Luxiu ended last quarter, the Lu Lu Xiu production team shared more than 200,000 bonuses per capita, which is almost the bonus of the average salary of the residents of the Dragon Kingdom for five years.

Of course, with only one or two hundred people in the production team, the bonus cost is only about 40 million, which is nothing compared to Lelouxiu's expected copyright income of more than 2 billion.

But not every capitalist in the Dragon Kingdom is as generous and capable as Xia Yan, Xia Yan's works have made so much money, from investment to publicity, all of them are personally funded by Xia Yan. With this kind of achievement, no one will complain even if Xia Yan doesn't give everyone a bonus, but Xia Yan still gives it and gives it back so much.

This also makes the employees work extra motivated now, Xia Yan he does not advocate any 996 involution, the company has enough manpower, the real work can't be done, and there is also money to ask other top animation production companies to outsource part of the work task, but for employees who are willing to work overtime, the overtime pay given in the rules and regulations is also quite high.

This also makes his subordinates often live overtime at night to earn overtime pay, and these behaviors have also greatly advanced the production progress of Xia Yan's animations.

For Fullmetal Alchemist, which will be broadcast in January next year, it is only October, and the company's publicity has already begun.

As for Xia Yan

After returning to the magic capital, in addition to the time to create swords and hunters, or, stay at home to make up for the Dragon Kingdom animation dramas that I want to watch but don't have time to watch in the past few years,,Comic works

Or, it's fully armed, cosplay, and play as a pure coser.

Of course, he dared to go to the scene, and the cos were definitely either the masked men in the anime characters or non-human creatures, such as the characters who had to wear doll suits.

If you don't show your face, it won't cause riots at the Comic Con site and affect the activities of the organizers.

Otherwise, Xia Yan wants to appear in these venues in real person, it can be said that the purpose of these comic exhibition organizers and various partners who participate in the exhibition want to promote their works, and it will definitely not be achieved, and the news headlines of the next day must be about Xia Yan's information.

Of course, Xia Yan sat at home during this time, occasionally went to comic exhibitions, cultural exhibitions or was invited to attend some charity galas, etc., and his life was relatively salty, but people from all walks of life still found him through various channels.

For example, many cultural industry companies at home and abroad want Xia Yan to attend their company's activities, and they can even offer a price of several million a day.

There are also some variety shows that invite Xia Yan to appear, and the price is basically the same.

And because Xia Yan became famous, the copyrights of the two serialized works created by Yu Hongfeng in his high school career, "Youth Journey" and "Unheard Flower Name" were also surrounded and suppressed by all forces in the two-dimensional industry of the Dragon Kingdom.

Xia Yan's current works are either copyrighted by themselves, or jointly held with Beizhou, Liuli and other book companies.

Needless to say, the self-copyrighted works held by Xia Tang Animation Company, what TV series, movies, game adaptations and other copyrights Xia Yan will definitely not sell.

Don't say much.,Just the work of the magical girl Madoka.

Xia Yan adapted it into a live-action movie, and with Xia Yan's popularity and its reputation among the two-dimensional masses, he can casually win at least one billion movie box office at home and abroad.

Adapted into a live-action movie, there will also be hundreds of millions, or even more.

In the same way, Lelouch, Cyberpunk and other works can make money in the market with the same operation, twice, or even three times, and as long as the quality is guaranteed after you are live-action, fans will even happily consume these works a second or third time.

Not to mention the game adaptation.

There is still a huge space for the value of these works, Xia Yan will definitely not be able to sell the copyright, and when he has time in the future, he will gather people to set up a TV series and movies within the company, or a game adaptation department, it is not difficult for Xia Yan, it just depends on whether he can be so energetic.

The capital market is salivating for the money printing machine of "Xia Yan", but Xia Yan has no flaws at all.

Personal credit is good, reputation is good, business conditions are excellent, no loans, no financing, no vices, and the relationship with the leaders of various official departments of the Dragon Kingdom is also very harmonious, and there is no way for anyone who wants to set him up

So. Two works in the Red Maple Society that year.

It directly attracted the crazy scramble of the capital side of the Dragon Kingdom.

The animation copyright of Youth Journey and Unheard Flower Name has long been sold, and the former and even the animation were launched four years ago, but because the producer made the animation shoddy, a love animation turned out to have character collapse, stiff voice actor dubbing, frame drops on the screen, background distortion and other problems, plus Xia Yan had not announced his identity as a "warrior of love" at that time, so he also achieved the fourth place in the quarter.

But now, the film and TV series adaptation rights of the two works have become a favorite in the film and television industry of Dragon Kingdom.

Seven of the top ten film and television production companies in Dragon Kingdom participated in the copyright bidding competition for Red Maple Literature, and the final winner bought the film and TV series rights of two works at a price of 75 million.

Of course, the reason why the copyrights of these two works are still in the hands of Hongfeng and Xia Yan is that the copyright consortium is Hongfeng Literature, which sees the huge potential of Xia Yan, and has not been considered to sell the copyright in recent years.

When the contract was signed, Red Maple Literature had the right to trade the copyright of two works and a small part of the income, and Xia Yan had most of the copyright income.

Therefore, Xia Yan also gained tens of millions of dollars in two works after a few years.

This is the status quo of a popular creator like Xia Yan, as long as there are enough works, every year, there can be past works that will bring you unexpected surprise income. Even if Xia Yan retires now, the passive income from his works will be hundreds of millions every year.

Of course, the company that bought the rights to Youth Journey and Unheard of Flower Names will definitely not let go of so many pairs of eyes in the market now.

Just a few days later, it was announced that four projects of the two works in terms of movies and TV series would be launched at the same time.

The TV series Xiaohua, traffic movie stars, and idols in the Dragon Country market are also like sharks that smell blood, and they are flocking to the adaptation projects of the two works.

Just kidding, who can compare with Xia Yan's tens of millions of fans in the Dragon Kingdom who are willing to spend on his works?

Compared with the influence and traffic of the cultural industry, those traffic stars who rely on their faces are very different from Xia Yan.

If Xia Yan wants to make movies and TV series, his appeal will definitely be stronger than these first-line stars.

This. is now Xia Yan's status in the industry.

Although he is mixed in the two-dimensional world, in the film and television industry, he is already an existence that exudes the light of banknotes in everyone's eyes.

This incident has become a big headline in the two-dimensional industry of Longguo in October.

Although the two works of Youth Journey and Unheard of Flower Names are relatively average in Xia Yan's early works.

But their author is named Xia Yan

This allows them to sell for this copyright price in Dragon Country.

from, comics, to anime adaptations

Then to the adaptation of the industrial chain of games, movies, and TV series.

A central point anchored in Xia Yan, and then radiating the industrial chain of various categories of Longguo's cultural industry, is being born.

It's November

Xia Yan, who was watching animation at home, rejected the invitation of the Liuli Book Club to invite him to participate in a variety show in the imperial capital over the phone, but agreed to the other party's proposal to hold a signing meeting in the Dragon Kingdom next month

Participating in variety shows is that variety shows account for Xia Yan's traffic cheaply, and Xia Yan will definitely not do it.

But at the signing meeting, Xia Yan still remained stable within five games a year.

After all, it is appropriate to stay active in front of fans, which is also important for Xia Yan to maintain popularity.

"Feeling. After graduating, I got more and more bored. In the empty room, there was only Xia Yan alone.

After Tang Yin returned to the magic capital, she fell into work, and a bunch of overseas copyright dealers were waiting for her to sign the contract on behalf of Xia Yan, and she had been away from the Dragon Kingdom for three days.

Mo Ran is a cartoonist combination with Xia Yan, because of Xia Yan's salted fish, this year, basically the "author" meeting of this work was all Mo Ran, and the work was created by two people, but now the hunter's "image spokesperson" is basically Mo Ran, and she has also set off to the imperial capital for a week to promote her work.

As for Song Lingyun.

After Xia Yan and Tang Yin returned to the magic capital, they looked the same as before, pretty, beautiful, calm, that is. Xia Yan could feel the subtle atmosphere emanating from her body.

However, she has also been busy promoting her new work recently.

Song Lingyun's new work, now the average volume sales have reached 18 million.

She is now the No. 2 writer of Liuli Book Society.

But with Xia Yan's Sword Art Online's 28 million volumes of average sales, the gap is still too far.

But she's also trying.

Moreover, the Liuli Book Society does not want to put all the treasures on Xia Yan, and now Xia Yan does have a good relationship with the Liuli Book Society, but it is not sure when Xia Yan will be poached by the starry sky and Qingze, and when the time comes, Song Lingyun will have to take the lead.

Naturally, out of insurance considerations, Liuli Books also tilted its publicity resources to Song Lingyun.

She has also rarely come back in the past half a month, and she is cooperating with the work of the Liuli Book Society.

After graduating from school, everyone is busier with their careers.

Xia Yan thought about it at home for a while, and then let out a long breath.

"It's so lonely." Xia Yan smiled bitterly and sighed.

November passed quickly.

The temperature has moved from autumn to cold.

The pedestrians on the street have changed from the previous short-sleeved, fair-skinned and beautiful legs to long-sleeved, outerwear, and black stockings.

But it's this season when the temperature is getting cooler.

Xia Tang Animation Production Company

At the end of November, a bombshell was dropped.

There was no large-scale publicity, no information forwarded by industry insiders.

It's just that on the official website of Xia Tang Animation, at four o'clock in the morning, without any notice, a short animation trailer with a duration of one and a half minutes was quietly released.

About the upcoming broadcast in January

"Fullmetal Alchemist"!

At four o'clock in the morning, some night owls just came to the official website of Xia Tang Animation by chance and glanced at it as usual, thinking that it would be an ordinary early morning, and there would be no changes.

But after seeing this teaser video

In the entire Dragon Kingdom Second Dimension Realm, an invisible earthquake began to brew.

After being depressed for almost half a year, the fan base of various cities and regions in the Dragon Kingdom began to be active.

In the group, everyone rushed to forward relevant messages.

In the group where no one is there in the middle of the night, it is rare to see a single person speaking all night, but today, at four o'clock in the morning, these fan groups collectively do not sleep.

A large number of people began to flock to the official website of Xia Tang Animation, as of five o'clock in the morning

The number of clicks on Xia Tang Animation's teaser video exceeded 700,000.

Rao Zhijun, who has been an iron fan of Xia Yan for six years, still got up in the early morning to drink water and casually looked at the mobile phone fan base before finding out

The Xia Yan fan group that joined actually popped up more than 2,000 unread speeches when he was asleep, and he found out after a little look

Steelcast trailer?

Fans of Dragon Country Xia Yan have been looking forward to it for more than half a year, during which it is one of the four new works of Xia Yan that has been constantly discussed, and it is the preview of the Fullmetal Alchemist with the highest average investment.

It's finally out.

A stream of blood rushed to his brain, and Rao Zhijun suddenly lost his sleepiness.

There is a delay today, and I owed more last night and wanted to make up for it today, but alas, I will make up for it tomorrow. Tomorrow weekend, I will definitely be able to make up..
