Chapter 122 Crazy hoarding of copyrights and game layout
Many of the variety shows Wei Yang participated in before were about the crew. This time, "Very Quiet Distance" focused on him and talked about some things about his life.
"... I bought that Jetta with my salary from "The Best of Us". At that time, I needed a means of transportation to travel around. I couldn't afford it, so I bought a cheap one.
I don’t know why everyone is paying attention to it. In fact, I didn’t drive this car very much at that time. I might be photographed by the media occasionally, and many people thought I only had this car.”
"How many cars do you have?"
Wei Yang was stunned: "Well... I only have this car in my name, but our company has internal buses, and I mainly drive the company car now."
Li Jing: "Have you sold your Jetta?"
"No, I probably won't sell it in the future. I'll just keep it as a souvenir of my early days."
"..."
After chatting for about three hours, the recording ended. Wei Yang was instantly surrounded by the audience, holding pens and signing autographs. It was not until more than half an hour that he broke through.
After having a meal with Li Jing, Wei Yang did not leave the capital, but went to meet with a small company——
Jinjiang Literature City
Compared with the starting point, which is still relatively large in scale, the office location of the leading female channel in Jinjiang is very shabby, located in a residential building.
The boss of this company is indeed stingy. It is said that Jinjiang, as the most trafficked web site in the industry, makes a lot of money, but it is said that the office location has not changed, and the layout of the web page is very hellish, and it has remained the same for decades.
So much so that the boss, Bing Xin, and his wife have been complained about as a "stingy couple" and have been criticized a lot.
But this has nothing to do with Wei Yang. He is here to buy the copyright, or to be more precise, to package the copyright.
The original novel "East Palace" has been published and is quite popular online. If Wei Yang wants to film it, he must buy the copyright.
The author of "East Palace", Ji Wo Si Cun, is not very well-known now, and it is useless to be big. These days, the film and television copyrights of most online novels are not valuable, and "East Palace" was directly acquired for less than 200,000.
There are still many good IPs in Jinjiang, so Wei Yang directly started the shopping mode.
"East Palace" and "Late Spring in the Lonely Empty Garden" by Bandit Wo Si Cun
, "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", "The Princess of 11 Secret Agents" (Chu Qiao Biography), and Gu Man's "Why is the Shengxiao Silent", "A Slight Smile Is Allure", "Shanshan Comes to Eat" and "The Sun Is Like"
I".
There are a total of more than a dozen books, large and small, some of which are popular websites, and some of which are not very popular. They directly wiped out the down payment of a house in Weiyang in Magic City.
But the money is definitely well spent. When the Internet copyright market takes off, Jinjiang’s copyrights will hardly be lower than seven figures.
For copyright tycoons such as Bandit Wo Sichun and Gu Man, the copyright prices have reached tens of millions.
The copyrights that Wei Yang has hoarded can't be bought by Blue Whale himself. If they are resold, they can directly earn dozens of times. They can even be used as keys to enter the game and get involved in some projects.
To be honest, Jinjiang does not accept investment, otherwise Wei Yang would really like to directly invest in it.
This is not an Internet article, it is simply a mountain of gold!
Even though he was rejected by Jinjiang, Wei Yang did not give up. He planned to talk about it later. If it didn't work out, he would try to build a website by himself. The investment was not high anyway. If he really came up with a good IP, he would make a lot of money.
After leaving the capital, Wei Yang returned to the Magic City and went to a certain spot. He originally wanted to do a shopping spree, but he unexpectedly underestimated a certain spot.
The main reason is that a certain male channel has too much influence. It is backed by Shanda Group and has also developed game copyright operations. It is full of confidence. Wei Yang is interested in mostly top works, so the price will naturally not be low.
For example, when Wei Yang asked about the price of the most popular movie "Break the Sphere" at the moment, it was twice as expensive as the total he spent in Jinjiang.
You know, this book has just been serialized for less than half a year and has not yet reached its peak.
There was no other way, Wei Yang could only collect a few key and promising books, such as "Qing Yu Nian", "Langya Bang", etc.
After obtaining these copyrights, Wei Yang did not associate himself with Blue Whale. He bought these copyrights with his own money.
So he established a new cultural company [Orange Shell] to manage and operate the copyrights of these online articles. In the future, the copyrights of his own novels and some musical works will also be placed in this company.
In addition to this cultural company, Wei Yang also registered a game company of his own.
Film and television companies are good at increasing the influence of IP, but when it comes to making money, they have to develop peripherals, and the most profitable of these is games.
As I said before, Wei Yang did not film "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" and "The Story of Ancient Swords" because the surrounding areas did not support them.
Taking the drama "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" as an example, the original time and space investment cost was probably over 100 million, and the film and television revenue was about 200 million+.
It also greatly improved the soft power of the production company Ciwen Film and Television, which greatly contributed to its successful listing.
But this is not as good as the ridiculous profits made by the mobile game of the same name "Flower Bone". With the popularity of the TV series, the peak monthly revenue is nearly 200 million. Even though this kind of game has a limited cycle, the revenue will drop sharply after the popularity is over, but aside from the cost,
At least it can earn several hundred million in net profit.
That's why Wei Yang specifically registered a game company and later invested in research and development to achieve interactive video games and maximize profits.
Wei Yang, who was too lazy to waste his brain, named this game company [Red Shark], the color + sea creatures. Several companies have the same origin, and you can tell who the boss is at a glance.
And Wei Yang feels that this thing actually has a bit of metaphysics, such as Alibaba's Tmall, JD.com's dog, Meituan's kangaroo, QQ's penguin, Baidu's bear paw...
So Wei Yang thinks it’s good to have an animal in the company, as it has a good meaning and is also playful.
So much so that when he took over the company, someone mentioned changing the name of Blue Whale as a sign of updating, but Wei Yang didn't agree.
Firstly, he accepted Lao Zheng's love, and secondly, he felt that names like Stars and Mountains and Rivers were too vulgar and serious, so he liked something different.
It’s just that I deceived Xiao Zhao a little bit. If she becomes popular later, she is the first sister of Tangren, the first sister of Huayi, the first sister of Huanrui, and she is the first sister of Blue Whale. It sounds a bit naive...
Red Shark Game Company is currently fully owned by Wei Yang, and is currently in the preparation stage. When the company's framework is adjusted, he will invest in game development.
Wei Yang still has a lot of money, and several endorsement companies are looking for him, but he has been waiting for the broadcast of "My Love from the Star".
If it goes well, he will usher in a period of earning money, and then he can support the early operation and development of Red Shark.
If that's not enough, Wei Yang plans to borrow some money from Blue Whale, or borrow money from outside. Guaranteed by his own reputation and Blue Whale's profits, 18 million won't be a problem.
Wei Yang attaches great importance to this company.
If the blue whale guarantees him a good life, then the red shark is related to whether he can become rich and wealthy.
…
This episode of "Very Quiet Distance" was aired soon, and Wei Yang's remarks about Versailles aroused widespread discussion.
Although they think Wei Yang is pretending very well, more people still realize the inspiration behind Wei Yang's joke.
A college student from a small place, with his talent and hard work, became a popular star in a short period of time, started his own career, and made great achievements.
At any time, this kind of story of changing destiny by one's own efforts is always very touching.
From this interview, many people have a more three-dimensional impression of Wei Yang himself.
Humorous, confident and independent, mature and calm, motivated and simple, everyone can see the advantages of Wei Yang's character in addition to his most outstanding appearance and talent in the past.
Many netizens ridiculed him and finally understood why Wei Yang is so popular with women.
He has so many character advantages that he is naturally popular with women, not to mention he is handsome and talented. Most women would find it difficult to resist his charm.
This episode of the program did not increase fans much for Wei Yang, but it did make many of his fans become more die-hard, and passersby also had a better impression of him.
Manager Lei Chun was very excited about the results of this program, but Wei Yang himself had no time to care about it.
Entering October, there is only more than a month before the premiere of "My Love from the Star", and the crew has officially started the promotion period for the TV series.
At the moment, Fan Xiaopang is still filming, so for the time being, Wei Yang has to go first for publicity, flying everywhere in the sky these days.
After participating in a variety show on Suzhou TV, Wei Yang just returned to Shanghai and was interviewed by Sohu.com.
The person who came to interview me was a female reporter. She looked gentle and spoke very kindly, but the questions she asked were very harsh.
"Many people think that you are the first screenwriter of mainland idol dramas. Do you think so yourself?"
"I never thought about it that way."
Wei Yang definitely can't take on such a high hat: "Whether it's in terms of qualifications or reputation for TV series, it's too far to talk about it at the moment. And personally, I don't think I can only write idol dramas. "Interpol" premiered on CCTV
, is also a drama written by me, and its ratings and reputation are good."
"Interpol" premiered on CCTV 8 some time ago, and the ratings easily exceeded 1. The data is quite impressive, ranking sixth in this year's CCTV ratings list.
Prior to him were works such as "Walking to the West Exit", "My Brother's Name is Shunliu", "Liberation", "The Righteous Path in the World Is Vicissitudes of Life".
Wei Yang has another masterpiece to his name, and it is a non-idol drama, so he has the confidence to say this.
He does not exclude anyone who is the first person in a certain subject matter, but he does not want to completely tie himself to a certain subject matter.
The reporter nodded and asked another heartbreaking question: "How did you watch "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower"?"
Wei Yang almost couldn't hold his nerve. This reporter is really bad. He is holding himself back to make trouble.
This summer, the idol drama "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower" produced by Hunan Provincial Television Station will be launched.
Once this drama was launched, it quickly became popular. The average ratings successfully exceeded 2, surpassing "Twinkle Twinkle Star" and currently ranks first in this year's satellite TV rankings. It has also won the awards of Sister Shuangzi, Zhang Han, Yu Haoming, Wei
Chen and other rising stars of Tianyu.
Since both this drama and "Twinkle Twinkle Star" are about campus idols, have very good ratings, and are broadcast on the same platform, they will naturally be compared with each other.
From the perspective of ratings data and even influence, "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower" is even better.
In terms of word-of-mouth, "Twinkle Twinkle Star" beats the other one.
This can be seen from the Douban score. "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower" only has a score of 5.7, while "Twinkle Twinkle Stars" has a score of 7.8.
For idol themes, this score is already quite high.
Although Douban ratings cannot yet be used as a measurement standard for film and television dramas, they can also reflect the opinions of viewers and netizens to a certain extent.
Not only viewers and netizens think so, but many media also think so.
When "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower" became a hit, some reporters were slightly mean.
"I don't understand why so many people are watching a vulgar drama based on "Meteor Garden" ten years ago. I really can't feel the charm of Chu Yuxun, the silly and sweet heroine, and Murong Yunhai.
In my opinion, Zhang Wansen is not worthy of carrying shoes."
Idiot!
Exaggerated!
earth!
This is the evaluation that many people give to "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower". The most popular evaluation of this drama on the Internet is that it is "a thunderous drama".
Not only the plot arrangement, but also the way of service. It can't be said to be terrible, but it really has no highlights.
I can barely stand it if I just watch one drama, but I can't stand it alone because "Twinkle Twinkle Star" and "The Best of Us" are the best.
The former is more of a time-travel romance, but the latter is an out-and-out school drama, with lines, plot, and makeup all crushing "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower".
Not to mention the hooks of this drama, what about Metersbonwe, the street version of a rich man and the amazing screaming nympho dragon team.
Some netizens specially edited screenshots of the male and female protagonists and their shocking lines in "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower", and then compared them with Wei Yang, Yang Rong, Liu Shishi, Cui Peng and other excellent lines, all kinds of murderous and heartbreaking.
The reputation of the drama "Original Time and Space" is very average, let alone now, it is black, red, black and red.
But for Wei Yang to evaluate, he can't reveal the bottom of his peers, not to mention that he and Hunan Satellite TV are still in the honeymoon period.
Wei Yang thought about it for several seconds before saying conservatively: "If a drama is popular, it naturally has its selling points. I have probably watched a few episodes, and the overall style is quite youthful, which is very suitable for young audiences.
"
"Can I understand it this way?"
The reporter accurately summarized: "Do you think this drama is for young people and the plot is childish."
Wei Yang: "..."
Do you have a grudge against Xiang Provincial TV? Then why would you go to them to do anything for me...
This interview was later posted on Sohu Video, and it quickly made countless netizens laugh.
[Wei Yang is really tired. It’s not him who filmed the drama. He still has to wipe his butt. It’s so uncomfortable.]
[The reporter is so bad, Wei Yang almost choked when he said "the plot is childish"]
[I actually really want to watch Wei Yang scold this big thunder drama, but I really can’t stand it]
[Impossible, I read interviews with other people, and they all spoke highly of Wei Yang, who is known to be a good person]
[Actually, this drama is not that bad, Zhang Han is quite handsome, and the heroine is also pretty]
[If you are blind, don’t show your eyesight. Can that big-faced person compare with Wei Yang? Liu Shishi even outdid the heroine by 18 streets]
[The first school girl in the theater is having fun]
[Perhaps those two people are not bad in appearance, but their looks are too eye-catching and there is no way to compare them]
[Not only the appearance, but also the acting skills were downgraded. I even think that comparing the two dramas together would be an insult to "Twinkle Twinkle Star"]
