Han Lan gently knocked on the table and ended everyone's speech.

"Everyone, you don't know the level of the so-called major game companies in China. If we really hand over our IP to them, will you be able to play the final game yourself?"

There was collective silence in the conference room.

With the previous change of power, most of the current top leaders of the Tomahawk Group are relatively young, and the oldest is no more than forty years old. They can still play games.

Even if I don’t play games, I have seen my young people playing them and some children at home playing them.

How should I put it... It cannot be said that domestic games are bad and cannot be played.

You can definitely still play it.

But at this time, no one dares to stand up and say such things.

Whether it is albums, movies, or animations currently produced by the Tomahawk Group, the quality is very high, with a full score of 85 points if not 90 points out of 100. Even some of the peripheral product manufacturers they authorize are among the best in the country.

Manufacturers, such as Yehu International, have reliable product quality.

For many fans at home and abroad, the four words "Produced by Tomahawk" mean high-quality products that can be purchased without thinking!

And now we authorize game manufacturers to develop games that are 60% or even less than 60%?

Isn’t this a loss of one’s own brand?

Han Lan continued: "This year Tomahawk Animation can start making profits to support the group. Coupled with the blood supply from Tomahawk Pictures and Tomahawk Entertainment, there is no problem in supporting Tomahawk Games."

"I didn't say that I have to confront them head-on right from the start. It's not that fast to make games. You can buy two teams first and work on them slowly. As long as the game hasn't been released yet, it won't have any impact on them and it won't attract people.

They pay too much attention. When the game is launched in the future and a war really needs to start, our group will definitely be much stronger than it is now and can afford to compete with them!"

"Moreover, as long as the quality of our games is excellent, we will definitely not be afraid of insufficient publicity if we have the group's brand name."

"As for the version number of the game, do you think they can hold us back?" Han Lan smiled confidently.

When it comes to managers, Tomahawk Group is the real deal.

Based on the goodwill that Tomahawk Group has gained over the years, as long as the game is not particularly messy, it is impossible for them to block the version number and not approve it.

And as long as the managers give the green light, how many major game manufacturers can count?

All the executives in the conference room looked at each other.

To be honest, it doesn’t cost much to set up a game company, and to develop a game, an investment of 100 million would be overwhelming. It would cost as much as Tomahawk Pictures to make a blockbuster.

But that's not how the accounts are calculated. Once Tomahawk Games is established, it will continue to swallow up money, and it will not bring any income to the group in a short period of time, and even the future is quite slim.

After all, they have never made games, and they really have no confidence that their games can make money. If the Tomahawk game cannot make money, then all the investment will be in vain.

After all, Tomahawk Group is still a private enterprise and wants to make profits!

"Mr. Han, we need to further investigate the domestic game market. We don't know how many domestic game players are willing to pay for a game."

"Yes, the domestic game market is indeed very big now, but we have heard a little bit about how money is made. If we really want to develop a high-quality game as you said, we can't use those tricks and actually sell it.

As for games... we really don’t know how well they can be sold in China.”

"Routine? Why can't we do those routines? I don't think there is any conflict between high-quality games and gold-based routines? As long as the bottom line is controlled well," Han Lan said with a smile.

"..." Everyone.

"We need to make AAA masterpieces with buyouts, but we also need free games for the common people. Are you still worried about not being able to sell free stuff?"

"As for AAA masterpieces, if they don't sell well in China, they can be sold abroad. As long as the quality is good enough, we won't worry about no one buying them! And we are linked to movies and animations, so we have our own fan base." Han Lan said with a smile.

Everyone looked at each other and insisted on further investigation before making a decision.

Han Lan didn’t rush them, and he didn’t need a single vote to pass it. Anyway, he was not in a hurry to develop a game for the time being.

After all, Tomahawk Pictures and Tomahawk Animation have just built the Liaozhai Universe and the Gods and Demons Universe, and currently there is only a "Ghost Story" out there.

…

…

The proposal for Tomahawk Games was not passed, but the proposal for Liao Zhai Universe was passed first. After all, there was a successful case of "A Chinese Ghost Story" in the past, and the executives still believed that it could make money.

Therefore, Tomahawk Pictures' fourth movie this year, "Painted Skin," soon started preparations for filming, with an investment of 250 million, and Wang Shenzhi's team was responsible for the production.

And "Zhu Xian 2" is naturally directed by Zhao Chengwen.

Although Zhao Chengwen is not from Tomahawk Entertainment, he is still willing to take on this drama due to the success of the previous film "Zhu Xian".

As for Tomahawk Pictures' other war-themed movie, they did not find a director from outside, but handed it over to Pang Jun, a new director under Tomahawk Entertainment.

Pang Jun and Qi Shan are completely new directors with two different approaches.

Qishan is a genius. During his college years, he won the grand prize at the College Student Film Festival for the films he directed. He has strong professional ability and directing experience. After graduation, he took the initiative to find Han Lan and won the award.

He became the director of the movie "Huo Yuanjia". From then on, he became a blockbuster and became the leader among the new generation of directors in China. He is also currently the most famous director in Chinese Kung Fu films.

Pang Jun's path as a director was not as smooth as Qi Shan's, and his talent was not as strong as Qi Shan's. Before joining Tomahawk Entertainment, he worked in many crews. He worked all the way from being a scriptwriter to being a deputy director.

As for the director's position, he was kicked out because of a conflict with the director.

After wandering around, I finally submitted my resume to Tomahawk Entertainment. I joined Tomahawk Entertainment and then continued to work as an assistant director under Wang Shenzhi.

Han Lan was noticed by Han Lan when he was filming "The Bund" at the front end. After so many years of training, he is still capable. Moreover, he worked on the crews of some war films before coming to Tomahawk Entertainment, and he is also very good at war films.

experience.

So this time we were going to film the movie "Oblivion", and Tomahawk Entertainment happened to have no director available, so we brought him up.

Pang Jun is actually very lucky. Although the movie "Oblivion" is just a small project at Tomahawk Pictures, it still has an investment of 80 million!

Last year, the average domestic film investment was around 10 million, which was driven by many blockbusters with investments of over 100 million. Movies worth millions or even hundreds of thousands are common every year, which is also the way out for most directors.
