After getting the Pokémon copywriting planning, coupled with the memory and guidance of Qing Zhiyuan's previous life, the Pokémon project is basically stable.

It's just that I can't get into development yet, so I'll have to wait for Sony and Sega to develop the handheld.

At the very least, there must be a prototype machine, and they have to have the coding format in place so that it can be developed and debugged on the Pokeni side.

Fortunately, Qing Zhiyuan is not in a hurry, because there are some other things that need to be laid before making Pokémon.

There are several conditions for Pokémon success:

First, it is a handheld that is easy to carry and provides battle and exchange functions.

Second, there are well-known companies to do publicity, in the previous life it was Ren Heaven, and in this life it is Sega's thigh, plus Pokeni himself.

In the previous life, Ren Heaven was quite bumpy to do, and now Qing Zhiyuan doesn't know how sure he can be.

Third, animate the game to increase visibility.

Animation is very important, and many games themselves have average sales, or they don't enter the stream at all in the early stage, but once they are animated, they become gods.

The most classic is Pokémon, and later Fate.

Now, it's just a matter of animating the link.

……

"Nani? Investing in animation? When Nao Tsuda heard this request from Qing Zhiyuan, the whole person was stupid.

This is using DUN as an ATM, right?

"Hmm."

Qing Zhiyuan nodded and pushed the project in front of him in front of Nao Tsuda.

"Animation is a very good way to promote the content itself, and at the same time, it can also increase the visibility of the game and open up new markets. I think that's very necessary. ”

"Then why doesn't Pokeni do it himself?"

Nao Tsuda flipped through the project and glared at him angrily.

"This is a game project that DUN and pokeni work together, and if it is done, DUN is also a beneficiary." Qing Zhiyuan said.

Pokeni is ready to open a tender for the entire neon animation company, but the content produced is not Pokémon.

After all, Pokémon doesn't even have a shadow now, and you have to fill in the script content first to create it, and then adjust it according to the game content in the future.

The animation produced is the Onmyoji series.

To be an onmyoji, Qing Zhiyuan has his own considerations, on the one hand, to enhance the popularity of the onmyoji through animation, and at the same time to promote the sales of the onmyoji.

On the other hand, it is necessary to find stable partners to lay the foundation for the next step in the production of the Pokémon series.

The plot of Onmyoji itself is exciting enough, and it has the potential to be animated.

As long as the script is done well, Qing Zhiyuan feels that after the broadcast of Onmyoji, it can completely trigger a wave of galgame craze.

"Didn't Ren Heaven ban Pokeni, how will your cassettes be sold then?" Nao Tsuda wondered.

"Just send MD, and it can be made into an improved version, and the picture will be better." Qing Zhiyuan said lightly.

That seems to be okay.

Anyway, if you offend Lao Ren, it's better to offend more thoroughly.

……

The production cost of animation in the island country is actually not low, and it can even be said to be ridiculously expensive.

The production cost of an episode of animation is about 10 million to 20 million, and if the quality of the explosion of the kind of episode, the production cost of an episode can even reach 50 million.

It's more expensive than some games to develop.

And the risk is actually very high, if the broadcast effect is not ideal, and even the videotape does not sell a few hundred copies, then it is completely possible to cause an animation production company to go bankrupt.

Even if it is 10 episodes, the production cost may exceed 200 million yen.

It's not something that a company can eat.

In this case, in order to avoid risks, there are often several companies to [produce] at the same time.

This production means the funder.

After '96, as a rule, a so-called production committee was established as long as several companies jointly funded it.

Before the anime goes on sale, no one knows how it will be sold, and multiple companies co-invest to reduce the risk, which is also a very common phenomenon of neon.

Therefore, in many animation OPs, you can often see the names of multiple investment companies.

Qingzhiyuan's search for DUN is also based on this principle, everyone works together to share the risk and share the benefits at the same time.

Qing Zhiyuan also wanted to do it alone, but he didn't have so much money in his hands.

Even if there were, the risk of pokeni eating it was too high.

"And the most important thing is that DUN itself has its own distribution channels, don't you also have an animation industry?" Qing Zhiyuan said bluntly.

Animation is made to be distributed, and the broadcast fee of the TV station is actually only a small part of the animation income. Selling videotapes is the big one.

It's 1991, VCD hasn't come out yet, and whether it's the blue industry or the animation industry on the market, it's mainly sold on videotapes.

In fact, it's okay to sell videotapes, Qingzhiyuan now has some channels.

In addition, the animation production company has its own partners, so there shouldn't be much of a problem.

But if you want to broadcast it on TV, it's a bit difficult.

Either find a large animation production company, such as Toei, Toho, and Kadokawa Pictures...... Even the sons of dragons have a close connection with the TV station.

The problem is that if you find these large companies to produce, there is a high probability that the price will be raised, and there is no advantage in the production schedule.

If DUN can be pulled to produce animation together, then DUN itself has enough contacts and channels, and it can also ensure that the animation is broadcast in the TV station.

In this way, Qing Zhiyuan can find some favorite animation production companies that are not so famous for the time being.

Let's put it this way, neon has the most lacking people, one is a cartoonist, and the other is an animation production company.

Qing Zhiyuan controls the quality of the art by himself, and the final painting will not be bad.

"Hmm...... That makes sense. Nao Tsuda probably understood Qing Zhiyuan's appeal.

"But ......"

Nao Tsuda blinked, a sly smile on the corner of her mouth.

"There is a string attaché on the DUN side."

Belch......

Sure enough, Qing Zhiyuan chuckled in his heart, and knew that there was nothing so cheap.

"If you divide it, DUN can take more, and pokeni doesn't care."

"It's not a matter of sharing." Nao Tsuda said with a smile, "DUN has the intention of developing a new game, and I would like to entrust pokeni to make it. ”

"Huh?" Qing Zhiyuan looked surprised, "Where do we have manpower?" ”

"Besides, Pokeni isn't an outsourcing company."

"Not now." Nao Tsuda looked at him with a smile, "Or, when the time comes, if DUN establishes a game department, ask Ao-san to be a consultant, this condition is not too much, right?" ”

Qing Zhiyuan quickly figured out this matter.

That's right, DUN seems to have had the intention of developing in the direction of games from the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't have invested in pokeni in the first place.

Since we are going to develop new handhelds, Sony is sharpening its knives and making new games, and it is too much to say that DUN will not invest in it.

"Okay, it's okay to be a consultant. I'll try to make as much time as I can then. Qing Zhiyuan said.

But...... Looking at Tsuda's expression, this guy isn't going to develop a blue game, right?

……

There is no problem with the funder, so now there is only one left to solve -

Who should I find to animate?
