"Agent Copyright?"
Chen Lin, who was recording game information, turned around and answered the phone in surprise.
As soon as I put it to my ear, a polite voice came from the other side.
"Hello, is this Mr. Chen? I'm Su Peng, the person in charge of marketing at station b. I'd like to talk to you about the copyright for "Prison Break Rabbit"."
"Yes, I am. You guys are quite fast."
Chen Lin raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
Have video websites become so popular now?
"Mr. Chen was joking, what matters in our line of work is a sense of the market. I wonder if your studio has any plans to act as a copyright agent?"
"Yes, it is available, but it depends on whether the price is suitable."
Chen Lin's system requires the revenue generated by the game to obtain wealth points, and other additional income will not be included in it.
But there is no way, he is poor.
Originally, the previous two games made more than 3 million yuan.
But since the studio was built and the equipment expanded, there isn’t much left.
In addition, there are so many employees waiting for support, new game development, and personnel recruitment, which are all very expensive.
The revenue from two games alone is simply not enough.
I have to find a way to make some extra money.
"The price..." Su Peng on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then said: "What do you think of 600,000? Buy the two-year agency rights for the first and second seasons of "Prison Break Rabbit"."
"Less." Chen Lin replied without any time to think, "With the current popularity of "Prison Rabbit", the price of 300,000 per season is low, at least 500,000, unless you give up the exclusive copyright."
Animation agency copyrights are just like games, divided into exclusive and non-exclusive, and are generally only sold for two years.
Whether or not to renew the contract depends on the subsequent situation.
Anyone who is not stupid knows that exclusive copyright is definitely much better than non-exclusive copyright, and the income generated will naturally be different.
Su Peng said nothing and seemed to be having a psychological struggle.
Because he couldn't guarantee whether he would be able to recoup his capital even at a higher price. After all, "Prison Break" is just a small-scale animation.
Once it hits the shelves and the performance fails to meet expectations and causes losses, the senior management will definitely get scolded.
"I can also give you the Season 3 premiere."
At this time, Chen Lin's voice sounded and he added a handful of firewood.
"Okay! Deal!"
Su Peng gritted his teeth and finally agreed.
Although the exclusive copyright of 500,000 for one season is much more expensive than expected, it will be different if the premiere of the third season is added, and it will definitely attract a lot of heat.
“A pleasure to work with.”
“A pleasure to work with!”
After a few simple greetings, Chen Lin hung up the phone.
He made a lot of money for nothing, and he was in a pretty good mood. At least the short-term financial problem was solved.
Anyway, it only costs 180,000 wealth points to make a season of CG animation of Prison Break Rabbit, so it’s not a loss.
After thinking about it, he called up the interface and took a look.
[Game wealth value: 1.47 million/10 million]
There is more than one million worth of wealth left.
It is still far away from the goal of 10 million.
Considering that making games requires a certain amount of money, if you want to save money at once, you will need several games or a big hit.
After thinking for a long time, he looked at Du Xing who had just returned from outside.
"Duxing, how is the investigation of other manufacturers going?"
"The investigation has been completed, Mr. Chen." Du Xing quickly took out a piece of information from his arms and quietly came over.
"This is the result that I came up with based on surveys at the venue over the past two days, and some of it was obtained from colleagues from other manufacturers."
Chen Lin took the information and took a look. Good guy, it has densely recorded the game information exhibited by major manufacturers and studios. It even recorded the upcoming game project plans of some major manufacturers.
This made him couldn't help but look at Du Xing.
I didn't expect this guy to have such talent.
"Well done, more detailed than I expected. Are you interested in being transferred to the marketing department?"
"Ah? Isn't this not good?" Du Xing scratched his head, "I still prefer to sit in front of the computer and write code. I was lucky enough to meet a few friends this time to investigate so much."
Prefer writing code?
What a strange hobby...
These employees under him are indeed extraordinary people.
However, Chen Lin still respected personal choice and said, "Okay, you can tell Lao Song if you want to change departments in the future."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"
Du Xing grinned and was not upset about losing a promotion opportunity.
Perhaps it was his free and easy personality that allowed him to make so many friends in the industry, including those from other manufacturers.
This reminded Chen Lin of his time as a coder.
That is really called a person who has no ears to hear what is happening outside the window, and only has 1s and 0s in his eyes...
Shaking his head, he looked at the information in his hand again and studied it carefully.
Soon, he discovered the clues.
Including Huanhai, nearly 60% of these major manufacturers are developing outdoor adventure-themed games.
Even among the remaining 40%, half are considering expanding their business in this direction.
The reason is very simple. It is because there have been a lot of well-known movies about outdoor adventures and battlefield survival in China recently, which have pushed the popularity of this genre to the peak and are loved by countless netizens.
With such a huge and tempting piece of cake, major game manufacturers would naturally not let it go. They immediately changed their plans and joined the research and development of outdoor adventure games.
Chen Lin knew it very well.
Market demand is the main factor that determines the game industry.
A game that is popular in this world may not be equally popular in another world. There are many uncertain factors in it.
The development trajectory of the world's gaming industry is obviously different from what he had in mind.
If he only focuses on making games that he thinks are good and does not understand the market demand, there is a high possibility of failure.
"I think I probably know what I'm going to do in the next game."
After reading the information, a confident smile gradually appeared on Chen Lin's lips.
"Next game? Mr. Chen, do you have plans for a new game?"
The four employees who were greeting the players turned back one after another, excited and expectant.
Their idea is simple.
As long as there are games to make, they will have more wages.
There is no need to start work when there are outsourcing orders like Liming Studio did before, and panic when there are no orders.
"Well, it's a survival adventure game. If nothing else happens, this game will be our first IP!"
Chen Lin stood up from his seat, so proud that anyone could feel a strong determination in him.
With the new idea, he didn't need to stay here any longer. He turned around and said, "I'll go back to the studio to make preparations first, and I'll leave it to you here. Is that okay?"
"No problem, just leave it to us!" the four of them answered in unison.
Because of the appearance of Prison Break Rabbit Season 2, more and more players have been attracted, and the scale is even more terrifying than yesterday.
If we continue at this speed, it will only be a matter of time before we surpass Huanhai.
As long as the player traffic is sufficient, they will be very confident in the games they have worked hard to create.
