Chapter 194 IP Development

After sending Pan Duoshou away, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Fang Yi was about to go home with Chen Jiu when he suddenly received a call.

Lanqin!

"Mr. Fang, recently, many animation companies want to acquire the copyright of "One Piece". Do you think so?"

"Copyright?" Fang Yi asked strangely, "Isn't the copyright on Penguin Comics?"

"That's right, but according to the contract, we also have 50.00% decision-making power." Lan Qin replied.

Fang Yi was stunned.

According to the contract signed between Qiangwei and Penguin Comics, it is [-]-[-].

If only one company buys the copyright, then Penguin Comics naturally has no choice, but if there are more competing companies, they have the right to choose.

Recently, "One Piece" has come to an end.

The huge traffic of comics has also become the focus of strategies for various companies. It can be said that as long as the original readers of "One Piece" are relied on, a popular IP can be created.

It is a project that will never lose money.

"Let me go there." Fang Yi nodded.

"Well, we will notify Penguin Comics and finalize this matter together."

After hanging up the phone, Fang Yi took the car and went directly to the studio.

Halfway there, it suddenly began to snow.

The strong wind blows snowflakes flying all over the sky. According to the weather forecast for the past two days, this cold air is blowing from the North Pole of Blue Star, Siberia.

It is said that the temperature drop will reach more than ten degrees.

For Shuzhou in the south, it is relatively rare.

Through the car window, several pedestrians on the road on a small electric donkey lowered their heads against the strong wind.

But the wind was too strong, coupled with the raging snowflakes, everyone marched with difficulty.

Fang Yi suddenly remembered.

"Chen Jiu, how do you go to work every day?"

"Ride my little electric donkey."

"Another day, I'll buy you a car."

"What? Buy a car?" Chen Jiu shrugged his nose, "It's drifting again, right? If you know how to spend money indiscriminately, let's make money and buy a house, which can be regarded as a home for us."

Chen Jiu looked forward to it.

It's not that she's stingy, it's just that the housing prices in Hangzhou are too expensive, not to mention ordinary people, even some successful people don't dare to reach out.

House prices of three to four million, or even nearly ten million, prevent most young people who want to enter this city.

Fang Yi looked at the jade bracelet on Chen Jiu's hand.

I'm afraid that this girl really doesn't know she's in Baoshan. The jade bracelet that Pan Duoshou sent out is probably worth more than a house.

Don't argue with Chen Jiu.

After arriving at the studio, Lan Qin had been waiting downstairs for a long time. Her head was covered with a layer of snowflakes, making her look more and more dedicated.

"It's such a cold day, why did senior sister come down?"

"The big president is here, so I, the little president, can only keep a low profile." Lan Qin joked, "Come up quickly, the person in charge of Penguin Comics has arrived."

The two walked upstairs while talking.

Pushing open the door, Lan Qin hurriedly introduced, "This is Mr. Fang, Mo Feng, the main creator of "One Piece."

He pointed to a middle-aged man in his 40s, "This is the copyright operation of Penguin Comics, Director Su."

"Director Su, hello." Fang Yi shook hands with the other party.

"I've always heard that Mo Feng is young, but I didn't expect him to be so young." Director Su smiled and handed over a stack of documents, "Mo Feng, this is a company that intends to purchase the copyright of "One Piece" and an offer. Take a look."

Fang Yi took it over.

turn on.

The first one is called Xing Kuo Media, with an offer of 3000 million yuan.

The second company is called Lushan Media, and the offer is 3000 million.

The third company is called Lingli Film and Television, with an offer of 3000 million yuan.

……

Except for the company name, the price is the same.

but,
This price is not only inferior to "Fake Heroes", it is even lower than 01:30 points.

"Director Su, why are the prices so uniform?" Fang Yi frowned.

"This is the rule of the industry." Director Su smiled bitterly. "In fact, most of our animation market comes from Taizhou, and Taizhou companies have always advanced and retreated together. To put it mildly, it is called healthy competition, and to put it bluntly, it is called industry monopoly."

monopoly?

Fang Yi nodded.

These animation companies are obviously determined to eat themselves.

Originally thinking that the price was right, he sold the copyright, but in this way, he simply jumped into the pit.

Not bad.

Although I got the game copyright of "Fake Heroes" for 0 yuan, in fact, I also paid for film and television, publishing, etc.

According to the valuation, no less than 5000 million yuan.

And the IP of "One Piece" is obviously higher than that of "Fake".

After all, the animation of "One Piece" has a large number of fans in China.

Then, maybe only develop it yourself.

"Director Su, I can't accept this price." Fang Yi returned the information to the other party, "If you sell this IP to me, how much will it cost?"

"You want to buy it back yourself?" Director Su was a little surprised.

"Yes." Fang Yi nodded, "We can try to develop it ourselves."

"Mo Feng, you have to be careful." Director Su persuaded, "Although our IP can't be sold at a high price, developing it ourselves is a big pitfall."

Director Su is right.

As a director of copyright operations, he is very aware of the market conditions in the animation market. For example, the animation development of "One Piece" cannot be won without [-] million.

Even if Qiangwei has strong financial resources, it is impossible to develop animations like "One Piece".

The plot is too long.

no experience.

The market is unknown.

It can be said that these animation companies were able to give such an extremely low quotation precisely because of this point.

"Yes, Mr. Fang, we don't have the strength yet." Lan Qin also persuaded.

"You don't have to persuade me." Fang Yi smiled lightly.

Although he just decided to develop it himself, Fang Yi has absolute confidence.

First of all, I have a unicorn game.

During this time, everyone in the development department has been developing the game of "The Richest Man".

But the small game is nothing more than talking about it.

If the big IP of "One Piece" is handed over to everyone, at least for the next one or two years, the work of the development department will be considered stable.

Moreover, the development of games and the development of animation are not considered cross-border.

Large investment is not a problem.

After all, "One Piece" is not a movie, you can develop the previous episodes first, and continue to develop while selling them.

"I need to report to the company." Seeing Fang Yi's serious attitude, Director Su took out his phone and called Penguin's boss directly.

Penguin's boss is called Ma Teng.

When I received Director Su's call, I was a little dazed.

Qiangwei wants to develop animation by herself?
Is this crazy?
Even I don't dare to mess around in the animation world.

In this industry, there are too many unspoken rules.
