Game company goes bankrupt? I backhand cyberpunk!

Edge Walker is ready! Lin Yuan, now we have talked with several video websites, but they are all clamoring for exclusives.

How did you talk about it?

I said 2 million per episode, and then several of their websites stopped talking. Feng Shuyun said, standing in front of Lin Yuan.

It is mid-August now, which is also the time when Edgewalker, who was three months pregnant with Qingchan Animation, was born. When Fang Qingchan handed in her work, Lin Yuan was also watching from the side.

The girl on the phone had oily hair, yellow skin, and those dark circles under her eyes. Lin Yuan immediately thought that if the good sisters were masked and thrown to Bashu, they would definitely be caught by the locals and put in a zoo as a national treasure.

Feng Shuyun also found a well-known domestic video website in the name of Nanxing and negotiated with them for the authorization of Edgewalker.

As an anime, no matter how high the budget for Edge Walker is, the price at which the anime can be sold is limited, which is around one million per episode. Anime cannot easily sell for six or seven million like TV series. Collection, after all, the production funds are there.

But Edge Walker is different. Both the pictures and the music cost a lot of money. Lin Yuanguang spent more than 70,000 yuan just to buy the music package with emotional value, not to mention finding a professional team to produce it later, which cost another Large sums of cash.

Lin Yuan spent 400,000 on making music.

Lin Yuan paid for all this money himself.

As for the song I Really Want To Stay At Your House, Lin Yuan found an online singer to sing it. After a lot of editing, the girl's song was almost the same as the original one. She was a studio war god. .

To be honest, if the other person's voice wasn't really suitable, with that kind of ethereal and grainy feel, then Lin Yuan really wouldn't look for an online singer.

The difference in strength is too great.

Without any professional knowledge, he would just open his mouth and sing, and it would be easy to go out of tune. But fortunately, in the follow-up, the song was successfully integrated with the other party and the production team, and it was successfully produced.

And this team was also impressed by Lin Yuan's talent. After all, the music production of Legend of Sword and Fairy was all produced by the other party. They clearly knew how good Lin Yuan was in the field of music.

You can play any kind of music!

He is a true genius producer!

The erhu pipa has always been very popular, but now it is even more popular, and even foreign music is played. The song I Really Want To Stay At Your House is simply amazing.

It sounds like you are driving a motorcycle alone under the moonlight on an empty and deserted road. It has a very strange and psychedelic feeling.

Reality and space collide, as if being brought to another level, coupled with the effect of animation.

This music team called Baiwu Zhiyin is very willing to join Nanxing. Their team has a total of thirteen people. The purchase price plus internal equipment is 4 million. Well, this is also Feng Shuyun's money.

As for why a music company with thirteen people is equivalent to Qingchan Animation with thirty people

It can only be said that the money for playing music equipment is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.

A set of professional equipment costs upwards of 700,000 yuan, plus various musical instruments and copyright royalties. The expenses are naturally not small.

The dubbing was also found by Lin Yuan himself. The dubbing of Han Lingsha, who had previously played the dubbing of Fairy Sword, was found to dub Rebecca, while the dubbing of David was an old dubbing actor from film and television dramas. Although he was older, he still It can produce a very good effect. When a person pinches his throat, his voice sounds more immature and green than Lin Yuan's.

Professionals are just different!

Haha, of course Lin Yuan will not spend this money.

Boss Feng is much richer than him!

What about Broken Station? What did Broken Station say?

The broken website said that the finished animation effect is great. They can see that two million per episode is not expensive, but if it is non-exclusive, it is really a bit expensive. They hope to be able to broadcast it exclusively, in which case they are willing to pay two hundred 10,000 yuan to buy the next episode.”

Where's the kiwi fruit? Lin Yuan asked again.

Kiwi is rich, but they don't agree to release ten episodes at once. They say it must be broadcast to members every week, otherwise it will affect their membership subscription rate. Feng Shuyun said helplessly.

These big websites are really rich. They can spend several or even billions to buy a bunch of videos in a quarter. Just to break up the site, they would have to spend tens of millions to buy animations in a season, let alone Variety shows, movies, movies, etc.

So for these big websites, buying Edgewalker is really not a problem.

And they can all see how good Edgewalker is. Just the song I Really Want To Stay At Your House is enough to break out of the band. That song is particularly nice.

But when it comes to buying and selling, it’s normal to search for something.

Lin Yuan asked again: What did Goose Factory say?

Goose Factory is even more amazing. Goose Factory even took the initiative to raise the price, saying that we would buy a single episode for 4.5 million. If we sell it to them, we can directly repay the money. Moreover, Goose Factory also agreed to release ten episodes at once, but They played a trick and said that except for the first episode, each of the subsequent 9 episodes requires members to re-purchase each episode, and each episode costs 3 yuan. Feng Shuyun said with a weird expression.

Lin Yuan's expression became strange after hearing this.

Well. As expected of you, Goose Factory.

Penguin Video's advanced on-demand method was scolded by Lin Yuan in his previous life, but don't tell me, this method did make Penguin's video a lot of profit, but at the same time, Penguin was scolded. That's really The scolding continued, and Penguin quickly canceled this profit model.

Who should we sell to? If it's less than 2 million per episode, then we will lose money. Feng Shuyun sniffed and said.

Originally, they would not lose money, but would make a fortune, but they could not keep up with the cycle. Edgewalker spent a lot of money on rushing the work. If they did it slowly, they would not lose money for an episode of 2 million. Animation is a long-term Effectively making money, the video website is purchased for a certain period of time. After the period, you need to sign a contract and renew it, so good works will never lose money.

but.

Who told Feng Shuyun that it was only sold in China?

Why are you so anxious? You don't think Edge Walker is only played in China, right? Lin Yuan looked at Feng Shuyun speechless.

Find Steam and use their connections to contact foreign video websites. This is also a lot of money.

In fact, animation is not profitable in terms of copyright fees in products. Its music sales, peripheral sales, offline activities, IP operations, etc. are where animation and comics make money. You must know that many animations are adapted from comics. Animation is actually Use it as an advertising medium to let more people know that as long as you can maximize your losses without maximizing losses, you will make money.

For Nanxing, the same is true for Edgewalker. It is used as a publicity for 2077. The purpose of investing upwards of 40 million is to let people around the world know about cyberpunk and provide a platform for the world. The world knows the foreshadowing of 2077, but doesn't really want to make much money with Edgewalker.

When used in Xuanfa, this is Lin Yuan's original intention of becoming an edge walker.

After all, the promotion of 2077 exceeded 100 million US dollars, but the effect may not be as good as the launch of Edgewalker.

Because this anime is so out of the ordinary!

Arguably, after War of the Two Cities, Edgewalker was the best anime of that time!

Of course, it would be best if you can make some money.

Oh, then who should we cooperate with?

After much thought, I decided to go with Brozhan. The user activity is relatively high. Let's discuss it with them and tell them that we are willing to sell it exclusively, but the price will go up. At the same time, we will keep the original plan of releasing ten episodes at a time. model.

No problem, then I'll make a call. Feng Shuyun nodded and said.

Well-behaved and cute, kind of like Secretary Lin Yuan

In the afternoon, Feng Shuyun came back from the phone call.

After saying OK to Lin Yuan, the matter was settled.

OK, Station B agrees to open an episode with 2.6 million, but at the same time it requires that the first episode be free to watch, and subsequent episodes require big members to watch. They want to ensure that they can make a profit. Feng Shuyun said.

Lin Yuan nodded and asked, Have you contacted Steam?

We got in touch and introduced us to Mr. Tross, who is a person in charge of Netflix. The other person said that he wanted to see the finished film first and then consider it.

I've already had someone sort it out and send it to him. Only the first three episodes will be sent. Feng Shuyun said.

Lin Yuan nodded.

Thus.

That's it.

Let's start advertising for Edgewalker. Let Li Lin prepare and tell several game departments to incorporate Edgewalker's advertisements into the game.

I don't care about Netflix for now, let's release it in China first. Let's see the effect in advance.

Lin Yuan clapped his hands.

Then he said with a smile: Players, are you ready for the first gift Nanxing gives you?

Welcome to the City of Night~
