Since Starry Sky Director Studio pioneered the adaptation of online novels into film and television dramas, the trend of adaptation in the film and television industry has been booming in recent years.
Especially when the "Kung Fu Miracle" series of movies and the "Fist of Fury" series of movies achieved quite impressive box office results, other film and television companies became even more enthusiastic.
In addition to film adaptations, there are also TV series adaptations.
In recent years, Datang Film and Television has been almost exclusively engaged in this field. You can tell how successful they are from their impressive performance.
From the first "The Military Advisor", to the later "The Days of Living with the Stewardess" and "The Ming Dynasty Detective", as well as the recently released "Celebrating More Than Years", and the long-prepared big production "Back to the Ming Dynasty"
"Being a Prince".
It can be said that Datang Film and Television relies on the high-quality TV series adapted from these online novels to become a top second-tier film and television production company.
When other film and television companies saw this, how could they not be jealous?
Especially those film and television companies that are not strong enough and do not have enough resources to compete in the film industry, naturally they can only focus on producing TV series.
Until now, no one knows that TV dramas can make do with anything, but scripts must not make do with anything.
Otherwise, even if top-notch actors are invited to star, it will only end in disgrace and disgrace.
It is not easy to create an excellent TV drama script. If it is directly adapted from a high-quality online novel, the success rate is still very high.
Then, the largest online novel platform in China under the Star Group ushered in a wave of purchasing the film and television adaptation rights of high-quality novels.
Many authors have benefited and their incomes have skyrocketed.
, Xingkong Group was behind this, adding such good news to the official Weibo and the video network from time to time, causing quite a stir.
After all, with the help of Star Director Studio, the film and television adaptation rights of a fine novel will never be less than 100,000.
One hundred thousand in 2009 was definitely not a small amount, and it was only the minimum standard.
In particular, high-quality historical fictional novels are the most popular, such as "The Seventy-Two Concubines of Three Palaces and Six Courtyards", which Star Director Studio and Datang Film and Television have no interest in tossing. The adaptation copyright alone has sold for almost one million.
After all, "Celebrating More Than Years" is the first one. As long as there are not a few random changes, the film and television adaptation of this fine historical fictional novel will definitely achieve the same results.
Of course, selling such a high adaptation fee is one of the reasons why producers and producers pay more attention to it, otherwise a fine novel will be wasted.
There are many examples like this, and most interested film and television companies try not to touch online novels that change real history.
After the constant broadcast of good news, the Internet author group has received considerable attention from the outside world and cannot make much money.
Think about it, when the average salary in the factory is only about one thousand or two thousand, a fine novel can easily earn more than five thousand from subscriptions and benefits alone. If you are lucky and sell the film and television adaptation rights or the game adaptation rights, you can directly earn
Who wouldn’t be envious of buying a house in a first-tier city?
In addition, the entry threshold for online novels is extremely low. All you need is a computer with Internet access. The main thing is your imagination and writing skills.
Writing skills can be improved through a lot of reading and writing, but as for thinking, it depends on your own imagination.
Anyway, before coding, no one would think that their imagination is inferior to others.
In addition to purchasing the rights to adapt high-quality novels, such as online novel platforms controlled by Star Group, some ambitious film and television groups and capital have also begun to pay attention to and acquire other potential online novel platforms.
Especially when "Living with a Stewardess", an urban pure love TV series, caused quite a stir after its broadcast and achieved good ratings, those ambitious film and television companies and capital were naturally even more unable to bear it.
You know, the original novel "The Days of Living with a Stewardess" was first published by Cuiweiju. Obviously, other websites also have excellent works. It just depends on whether there is any potential to be adapted into a film and television drama.
Then, following the Fantasy Sword Book Alliance, original novel websites such as Cuiweiju, Century Literature, etc. were acquired by external capital.
Fantasy Sword Book Alliance has a very good foundation in the field of martial arts novels. Many of the original high-quality martial arts novels on the website have already begun the road to film and television adaptation.
Cuiweiju is quite unique. Whether it is an urban or other type of novel, the description of 'emotions' is quite brilliant.
As long as it is not like the original history, the tone is controlled, and it is not completely thrown into the illegal field, there are still some development prospects.
Anyway, as long as the sponsor’s father has the request, the overall tone and writing style of the website can be slowly changed.
In short, various film and television companies, as well as capital interested in investing in the film and television industry, have made bets to acquire online novel platforms with a certain amount of traffic.
For a time, it seemed that online novels had entered a period of rapid development ahead of schedule.
There is no way, in order to attract authors to write high-quality novels, these acquired online novel platforms have increased their respective welfare levels.
Not to mention anything else, just receiving subsistence allowances is comparable to the factory's minimum wage.
As long as your grades are slightly better, a monthly income of 2,000 won't be a problem.
The first to reap the dividends are naturally the student party, the main force among netizens.
Especially college students, many have devoted themselves to writing online articles.
As long as you are not pretentious or arrogant, you can always achieve something by writing one or two books.
Apart from anything else, as long as you have average grades, at least your family won't have to pay for food during college.
If your grades are slightly better, you will have some savings on hand when you graduate from college.
If you have talent, ability, and hard work, you will be able to collect the down payment for a house before graduating from college.
If my grades were better, not only would I be able to achieve financial freedom during college, at least I would have a car, a house, and a lot of savings when I graduate.
Just the traction of film and television adaptation rights can have such a big impact on online novels. If it can be developed with full copyright, it will be even more exaggerated.
There are animations and even animated movies, audio novels and audio broadcasts, as well as mobile phone reading, and even the production and sales of related peripheral toys, clothes, shoes and hats. In short, there are many income channels.
This is definitely a big gold mine, and it is also a sunrise industry with low investment costs and good harvests.
At least compared to those projects that require crazy money and have not seen any income for many years, it can be said to be quite good.
Of course, as the first to eat crabs and be full of food, Starry Sky Group has a big presence in the online novel platform.
Later, it acquired the novel website platform of Nvfang.com, and at the same time opened a dedicated comics and animation website.
It did not play the trick of being the only one, and the rest of the female video websites were given over to other interested and ambitious film and television companies or related capital.
Why buy so many novel websites?
And it cannot be fully integrated. The operating cost alone is not a small amount.
It is better to cooperate with other websites and the capital behind them by taking a commission from the platform.
At this time, Starry Sky Group has already started its online novel business abroad.
In the form of bounties, overseas students are hired to translate specially selected high-quality novels, and then operate them abroad under the name of an unrelated company.
There is no way, as long as such an online novel platform operates smoothly in the United States and can develop to a certain extent, it will inevitably be infiltrated by those financial giants.
If you want to go against an old American company that is known for its shamelessness in other people's territory, there will be no easy end at all.
At that time, there were quite a few high-quality Western novels on the novel platform owned by Star Group.
Especially after 2004, many high-quality western fantasy novels with simple and refreshing plots, in Wu Dong's opinion, should be suitable for Waiguoren's taste.
Novels such as "I am the Great Mage", many novels written by Blood Coral, and even novels such as "Dragon Knight, Legend" probably have a certain market in Europe and the United States.
In short, Starry Sky Group has already started to develop online novel platforms abroad at this time, but I don’t know what the results will be.
In fact, he felt that fan fiction was the best way to open up the situation. After all, he had a certain audience base. However, due to the copyright awareness in Europe and the United States, he did not specifically select online novels that were excellent in this aspect.
Of course, in addition to Europe and the United States, Star Group has also set up branches in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, which are dedicated to operating high-quality novels on its online platforms.
Even in Japan and South Korea, Star Group has established offices.
The so-called big entertainment cannot just operate in the Greater China region, but must spread its influence and tentacles.
Star Group has begun to work hard to develop and build connections in the overseas film and television circles through the "Kung Fu Doctor" series and "Fist of Fury" and other exciting action films, and strive to promote the high-quality TV series produced by it and Datang Film and Television.
The effect is quite good, especially "The Great War" and "Celebrating More Than Years", which are quite popular in Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea.
Unexpectedly, the producers of Uncle Black who were contacted through the movie were also quite satisfied with the high-quality TV series purchased at a low price.
It's a pity that the situation in Europe and the United States has been delayed, but Wu Dong is not too anxious and just takes his time.
This time I chose to shoot a military action film. Although the main reason was to develop the copyright for high-quality military novels, I also wanted to open up foreign markets.
Waiguoren can't understand the delicate and hidden oriental fighting mode because of his culture, but he can always understand military action movies with real swords and guns, right?
In particular, Wu Dong plans to spend a lot of money to develop the modern mercenary novel "Wolves". The content in it combines the hot wars that have broken out around the world. It is definitely enough to attract attention...
