Chapter 178 Dead or Alive on a certain website!
In recent days, Liu Xiong has been in a good mood.

Although Liu Xiong is not a particularly money-loving person, the recent crazy sales of "Dead or Alive" really made Liu Xiong very happy.

You must know that "Dead or Alive" is a fighting game, and there is a lot of risk in investing 4 million US dollars.

But now, the ultra-high investment has brought huge returns, and Liu Xiong is really happy to see the account numbers rising every day.

While drinking tea in the office, Xiao Lin suddenly knocked on the door in a panic and shouted.

"Boss, boss! Not good! Not good!"

"It's on fire! Dead or alive on a certain website is on fire!"

The website Kobayashi mentioned is a well-known sharing community, with famous users such as 91 Mr. Xu and 91 Mr. Leng.

Liu Xiong decided not to ask Xiaolin why he was on this website.

Instead, he said calmly, "Isn't it normal to be on fire?"

"Isn't there less dead or alive videos on PORHUB?"

"Also, I've read seven or eight books about Mary Rose in the past few days!"

The female characters in the game, especially the kind of beautiful and attractive female characters, tend to become popular on the 18X website.

"Dead or Alive" will become a hit, which is completely expected by Liu Xiong.

But Xiao Lin took a deep breath, showed Liu Xiong his mobile phone, and said mysteriously: "But the quality of this video is very high, and it is very popular. It is said that the total number of clicks, sharing and downloads on the entire network has exceeded 1000 million! "

Can a small video exceed 1000 million?
This caught Liu Xiong's attention.

In addition, his own programmer, Xiao Lin, also commented on the high quality of this video, so Liu Xiong clicked to play it with great interest.

At the beginning of the video, there is a logo of a horse's head.

When Liu Xiong glanced over, he thought it was the e-sports giant Liquid on Earth!
Liu Daxiong wondered if Xiaolin had played the wrong video for himself?

Then Liu Xiong realized something was wrong.

After the horse head mark, a string of English words appeared.

Dead Or Alive: Broken Princess.

Dead or Alive: The Broken Princess?
In the video, first of all, the heroine of Dead or Alive appeared - Nv Ninxia!

Then some people showed up.

Then Liu Xiong confirmed it.

OK, this really is another fandom video about death or life.

Liu Xiong continued to read.

The following content is very inappropriate for children.

It is not suitable for poor psychological endurance.

First there were humans, then there were monsters that resembled humans, then there were monsters that didn't resemble humans, and then there were huge monsters...

After watching the video, Liu Xiong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Objectively speaking, as a free video to share, this "Dead Or Alive: Broken Princess" is very well-made.

Although it is not as good as the CG of Feimeng Game, it is stress-free to kill a lot of small companies in seconds.

From the bottom of his heart, Liu Xiong does not dislike other individuals or groups who use dead or alive characters to make all kinds of unscrupulous videos.

but……

The taste of this video is really heavy!
Seeing Liu Xiong's dazed expression, Xiao Lin asked hesitantly.

"Boss, what do you think?"

Liu Xiong thought for a while, and then said: "I don't plan to do anything with the high-quality videos that people can make."

This Matou studio was originally for free sharing and publishing, and Liu Xiong was really not interested in finding fault with others.

You can't judge someone as guilty just because the quality of their small videos is good!

In the following fifth and sixth weeks, the sales of "Dead or Alive" finally declined normally.

However, there are more than 3000 million sets sold in two weeks.

As a result, the cumulative sales of "Dead or Alive" have exceeded 1.2 million sets!

At the same time, in online forums, in sharing communities.

Various MODs about "Dead or Alive" are very popular, popping up like mushrooms after rain.

These mods continue to attract new players into the pit, while also ensuring the long-term sales of "Dead or Alive".

With the addition of "Dead or Alive", a unique fan culture group has gradually formed.

Therefore, the industry is generally optimistic about the final sales of "Dead or Alive", which is expected to hit 1.8 million sets.

Liu Xiong also recognizes the stamina of "Dead or Alive", but Liu Xiong also knows that it will take some time to reach the number of 1.8 million sets.

The sales of "Dead or Alive" game discs gradually flattened out.

But as a phenomenal game, the downstream industry of "Dead or Alive" has just begun.

As a beautiful girl-themed game, "Dead or Alive", which has many outstanding characters, has become a favorite in the eyes of many figure manufacturers.

Judging from the current players' enthusiasm for "Dead or Alive", whoever can get the authorization of Feimeng's figure can make a fortune!
And this time, Liu Xiong also attaches great importance to the authorization of the figure of "Dead or Alive".

Because after authorizing Neil's figures before, we got unexpected excellent results.

Although the current figure of Nier Automata is still in the production stage and has not yet been shipped.

But the data from Liulichang showed that the enthusiasm of the players was beyond imagination!

After the first batch of pre-orders ended, the share that Feimeng could get had already exceeded 6000 million!
In the follow-up, Liulichang has other production plans for Neil's Automata figures.

If this trend is followed, within three years, Feimeng's share of the figurines from Liulichang will not be less than 3 million.

Although in a short period of time, the money earned by hand figures cannot be compared with games.

But this money is earned for nothing!
Liu Xiong just signed an agreement, and then he didn't care about anything, just waiting for the money to be paid.

To be reasonable, this kind of free money should be taken seriously!

Besides, making money with hand-made items is a steady stream of things.

As long as your IP is strong enough, then figures can even earn you decades of money!
What 5th anniversary figure, 10th anniversary, 20th anniversary...

Dragon Ball figurines on Earth have achieved an exaggerated total sales volume!
From a gashapon that costs a few dollars, to tens of thousands of statues, the sales volume is absolutely terrifying!
"Dead or Alive" has sold more than 1 million sets, and the popularity of the female characters is quite high.

Therefore, the sales volume of "Dead or Alive" is definitely worth looking forward to.

Liu Xiong asked for advice beforehand, and got a rather optimistic statistic.

The income that "Dead or Alive" figures can bring to Feimeng will not be less than 10 billion!

And maybe even more!

After all, it is a 10 billion business, so Liu Xiong must pay attention to it!
This time, Liu Xiong contacted Liuli in China one after another, and also contacted Yusanjia, a figure represented by the Smile Society.

Liu Xiong's condition is also very simple, that is, simply asking for a share, not buying out the copyright.

In fact, most of Yusanjia's figures are buyout copyrights.

But this time, in the face of the super profits that "Dead or Alive" can bring, Gianxiaoshe was the first to choose cooperation.
