The Fantasy Entertainment Empire - Chapter 401

In the previous chapter, ‘60 million’ has been changed to ‘six million’.

I said I did not calculate it wrong, but the slip was wrong. Does anyone believe it?

…

“The Demon Hunter’s Handbook” sold 800,000 sets on the first day, compared with the 6 million sets that will recover the cost, which is a big gap.

It seems that if you maintain such sales results every day, you can achieve the goal in one week, but everyone knows that the speed at which works are sold online cannot be a straight line.

Of course, it is not true that there is no chance at all. If the follow-up trend is relatively good, it may be able to complete the goal or even make a fortune.

But regardless of whether it made money or lost money, for Versace, it doesn’t really matter.

In the final analysis, there are only three words: I can afford it.

Dimension Entertainment has made a lot of money over the years.

Before, “Taiwu Picture Scroll 2” had a global sales of tens of billions, and later, “Fire of War” has a domestic box office of 3.5 billion yuan and a global box office of 650 million US dollars. These are all big-selling works, let Dimension Entertainment Turned so full.

Not to mention, in the latter “De Marcia: Glory”, a single film is expected to exceed 10 billion at the global box office, and the revenue allocated to Dimension Entertainment itself will exceed 3 billion. If you count the movies, IP development, I am afraid that the overall revenue will rush up to 4 billion.

With such a huge amount of income, even if “The Demon Hunter’s Handbook” loses all 300 million, how can it make Dimension Entertainment? It’s just a small wound.

Not to mention, no matter how badly you lose, it is impossible to lose all.

Furthermore, if the money returned from the’dimensional technology’ is included, the work value estimation of the’dimensional’ system is not counted, and only the development cost paid by Dimension Entertainment itself is considered, there is no need to sell 6 million sets at all. It is estimated that one One and a half million sets will pay back.

Miller’s worries are not necessary for Versace.

He is not worried about losing money.

In fact, I have invested so much in making the animation work “The Demon Hunter’s Hand”, and when making it, I am striving for perfection in terms of production level, and in terms of style, I don’t think too much about commercialization, public acceptance, and the style of choice. The story is very avant-garde, at least it is a work that is not available on the market.

In this case, the results are not so hot, but it is actually an imaginable thing.

Fan Zhe is even more worried about the fact that under this not-so-popular result, is it because the animation works produced by his own company are actually not so good?

With his mentality, it is obvious that after he became rich, he began to seek fame instead of profit.

However, after he watched all the films himself, he basically put down half of his heart-it’s still very good!

Except for the story in the prologue of the first episode, the following is basically a story that revolves around the growth of the protagonist Su, fighting various monsters and enemies all the way, and gradually getting stronger.

The world view is still the same, the style of painting has always maintained its inertia, and the battle screen is the part that Dimension Entertainment is very good at, and it has maintained a level of excellence.

What are you worried about?

Anyway, Fan Zhe’s own evaluation of it: This is a good work.

And the other half of the heart was also let go after seeing the word of mouth of the work.

Douban scored 8.8, which is a relatively high score among the works of Dimension Entertainment.

Regardless of the single platform of Douban, the evaluation of “The Demon Stalker” on social media of different latitudes, such as Weibo, Wechat Account, and Zhihu, is also quite good. There are many praises and criticisms. Basically, I don’t say that this is a bad work, but I think it’s too niche. Dimension Entertainment is hilarious or something.

Fan Zhe doesn’t care about this kind of evaluation.

…

Longer the time, the whole of November has passed, and it has come to December.

The box office of “De Marcia: Glory” fulfilled all the expectations of it beforehand.

The global box office of 1.7 billion U.S. dollars officially reached, and “Glory”, as expected, became the fifth-largest movie in the global film history. Converted to RMB, this is 11.4 billion at the box office.

If all previous judgments on the performance of “Glory” were only estimates, now, when these have become reality, the related “Demacia: Glory” discussion has once again set off across the country.

This can be said to be the aftermath of public opinion from the previous “Glory”, or it can be said to be the climax of a new round.

At about the same time, “The Demon Hunter’s Notes” ended here, and it has been online for three weeks.

After the sales of 800,000 sets on the first day, by the second week, when the second episode was updated, it once again ushered in a climax of sales.

After all, when it first went live, the content of the first episode was still free for members. The membership growth rate of the dimension platform has slowed down a lot. Their current paid membership scale has reached 25 million. If this number of annual membership memberships is maintained, then just the income from the membership fee , There is a scale of about 500 million every year.

This is the core user plate of ‘Dimension Platform’. These users are visual products produced by Dimension Entertainment, which are more **** supporters.

Many of them have paid attention to “The Demon Hunter”, but the first episode is free for them to watch, so many people will naturally choose to watch the first episode first to see what kind of orange the work is, and then decide whether to Purchase the complete works.

Indeed, “The Demon Hunter” is not so popular due to its theme and style. But after all, the quality of the production is here. Although people who don’t like it will feel it at all, and even feel a little uncomfortable because of the blood and worldview, those who like it will like it very much, and even regard it as a god.

As a result, despite the tepid sales on the first day, the subsequent sales were actually relatively stable.

After the first week passed, the total sales reached 1.3 million sets; when the second episode went live, it ushered in a new climax. 700,000 sets were sold that day, and at the end of the second week, the total sales Came to 2.4 million sets. And now, at the beginning of December, at the end of the third week, the total sales have reached 3.1 million.

Following this trend, if the overall sales situation is relatively stable, maybe… “The Demon Hunter” can actually sell 6 million sets and complete the sales target.

What’s more, its global projection copyright operation is relatively good.

Under the hard work of Dimension Group and its branches in major markets around the world, it is broadcasted almost in major markets around the world.

In the global projection income, Dimension Entertainment can probably recover nearly 100 million yuan. Especially in the European and American markets, “The Demon Hunter” is more popular than any animation work of Dimension Entertainment in the past. Even some European and American pay TV stations have chosen to buy the rights to play this CG animation at a very good price, and unexpectedly received quite good ratings.

This also adds to the weight of “The Demon Hunter’s Hand” in the European and American markets, including in the global market, to obtain more revenue.

Taking into account the current domestic sales of more than three million sets, the total revenue generated by “The Demon Hunter” has already reached more than 200 million, which is not very far away from the cost line of 300 million.

After Fan Zhe received the relevant financial report as his boss, it was quickly passed on to Miller, the head of the animation department.

After seeing these data, Miller’s depressed mood during this period of time has improved slightly.

At the beginning of this year, Dimension Entertainment separated the animation department, and she became the leader of the animation department.

After the animation department became independent, they worked on two works. The animated version of “Hell Apartment” is still relatively cheap and simple, and the positioning of its own works is also a way of free of charge for the members’ complete works as a supplement to the member content of the dimension platform.

In contrast, “The Demon Hunter’s Handbook” is a major investment work that is definitely better than “Hell Apartment” in terms of status and importance.

She still gave great hope to “The Demon Hunter”.

The poor sales on the day of the launch really gave her a lot of pressure.

She once thought that Dimension Entertainment’s first loss-making work would come out of her own hands, and it was developed under her own leadership after the animation department became independent.

Fortunately, this kind of thing did not happen.

But despite this, she felt quite uncomfortable.

“The Demon Hunter” shouldn’t lose anymore. According to the estimates given by the company’s strategic development department, the sales of this animation on the Dimension platform should eventually reach 5 million sets-although there is not 6 million, it can also recover about 200 million. Close. Counting overseas copyright sales and the cost line of 300 million yuan, there should still be a profit of 20-50 million yuan. The company can still make a fortune after adding peripheral copyrights.

But think about it, Dimension Entertainment invested hundreds of millions of dollars to create a work, which one did not set off a frenzy?

“The Demon Hunter” even if it is a small profit, I am afraid it is difficult to reach that point.

As for the word-of-mouth reputation is quite good, even many people call it a masterpiece, and as the boss, Fan Zhe is also very satisfied with the quality of the animation.

But so what?

Miller used to be a very ambitious person, but after all, he has taken the position of the head of the independent department, and he will be inspired to be enterprising.

She is still a little worried.

However, it was dull and dull, but since the boss still gave her full support, she still felt that she could not break the pot.

The animation department still has to come up with some eloquent performance.

Ever since, at the end of the year, she came up with two plans in one go.

One is the fourth season of “Amber Sword”.

The “Amber” series can be regarded as Dimension Entertainment’s leading products in the animation industry. This series of animations have been made for three seasons in the past few years. In the entire East Asia, whether it is in mainland China or in the animation country Japan, “Amber” is considered the hottest and most outstanding of the current period. Animation.

As a cash cow, this work will definitely continue to be developed.

For the entire “Amber Sword” series, about six seasons have been planned, and the fourth season will be developed next.

According to the work schedule, this work will be completed and launched next summer.

Taking out this assassin is a way to boost morale for Miller’s animation department. They still have to reflect their value and make a work that is enough to make money.

“Amber Sword” is such a work that will definitely make money.

There is no doubt that when the project book for the fourth quarter of “Amber Sword” was handed over to the upper management of the company, it was approved very happily. The funds and resources that should be jumped will be given in accordance with the specifications. .

There is nothing to say about this.

As for her second plan, it was stuck for a while.

The work she is staring at is also an animated adaptation of an online novel-“The Respect of One World”.

The original novel was also a phenomenal work when it was serialized at that time. The author, a squid who loves diving, has established his status as a platinum author through this book.

As for the work of Squid, Dimension Entertainment has already adapted one before. It is the popular TV series “Budo Master~www.mtlnovel.com~”, but there are still some adaptations of “The First World”. The difficulty lies in it.

One is that the amount of investment is not small.

Although it is a 2D animation, it is not a high-precision CG like “The Devil’s Shouji”, but due to the fantasy theme, it still requires a certain amount of investment to do it well.

In addition, although the copyright of “One World’s Respect” is in the hands of Dimension Entertainment, when the company’s copyright marketing department negotiated with Lewen Group, among the batch of works bought, “One World’s Respect” was in the hands of Dimension Entertainment. among them.

However, there will be some problems in adapting this work.

In the original novel, although most of the plots are original, including the sub-world crossing story with some infinite flow elements, it was also written by the author himself.

But there is one place that I can’t get around – in the novel, many non-original techniques are mentioned. Some of these exercises come from the martial arts novels of Jin Yong, Gu Long or others, and so on, and some come from Hong Kong Comics, such as the exercises derived from “Legend of the Son of Heaven”, Huntianbao. Jian.

These things are not original novels.

When adapting the animation, if you don’t want to destroy the feeling of the original novel, then these things must be preserved. Although it is possible to change all the techniques that involve copyright issues, doing so will obviously reduce the effect of the work after these stalks are omitted.

But if it is to be preserved, the copyright of these exercises is a problem.

I don’t want people to sue to lose a lot of money, these things must be handled in advance.

This matter will be handed over to the copyright department of the company to discuss.
