Three hundred and seventieth eight chapters make a fortune
After work, Guan Lang proposed an invitation to go out for dinner together.
He saw that everyone was tired after working for a day or two. Now that the dubbing work has come to an end for the time being, he also wanted to express his gratitude.
He could clearly feel that people not only regarded the dubbing work of "Age of Dawn" as an outsourcing business, but actually participated with great enthusiasm and enthusiasm.
Now that he is seeing that the domestic and international broadcast rights of "Age of Dawn" are about to be sold, he will soon have abundant funds, so he is spending a lot more generously.
The contract with flix has been basically finalized.
Like RB Animation, Netflix usually purchased the global broadcast rights of "Age of Dawn" on a split basis.
In other words, as the copyright holder, he will receive part of his income based on the number of plays of the animation itself on the video website.
According to the results of the final business negotiation with Netflix, one click will bring him US$0.065 in revenue, which is basically close to the maximum revenue limit provided by Netflix to animation copyright owners.
On average, every million clicks can provide an income of US$65,000, equivalent to RMB 457,000.
Of course, clicks for paid viewing like this will shrink a lot compared to the free model.
But even if it shrinks significantly, the income will be an unprecedented huge sum of money for Guan Lang.
The bidding for domestic broadcast rights is still ongoing.
When it was learned that he had the intention to sell the exclusive broadcast rights of "Age of Dawn", major video platforms took action one after another.
In addition to Penguin Video, which was the first to participate, video giants such as Kiwi Video also participated in the agency bidding for broadcast rights. Bilibili, which focuses on the second dimension, will naturally not give up on such a hotly discussed animation work.
In addition, Big Brother Station A, which was once on the verge of closure but persisted tenaciously, has also shown great interest in the broadcast rights of "Age of Dawn". The management of Station A recently intends to expand its user base by purchasing some high-quality animations.
The excellence of "Age of Dawn" is obvious to all.
Even with the instability of the production team, which is suspected of being one person, the massive views and buzz it garnered in its first episode made these video platforms excited.
It has attracted 28 million views on station B alone, and the total number of clicks on the entire network has definitely exceeded 100 million.
Moreover, it also has the bonus of the special aura of “national comics”.
Usually, this kind of national comic title usually has a relatively negative impact. Many animation audiences will have a huge impression of the animated work before hearing about the national comic.
Many viewers always have great expectations before the launch of domestic animations. The animation promotions are also titled as gods and have a huge momentum, as if they are the saviors of the rise of domestic animations. However, after the launch of the broadcast, this huge expectation was deliberately raised.
The cumulative sense of disillusionment and countless sit-ups and moves has made many animation fans turn away from domestic animation.
But this does not mean that they are really that disgusted with domestic animation. On the contrary, to a certain extent, it is more like they are angry about it.
And when this sentiment spread throughout the Chinese animation circle, "Age of Dawn" turned out!
Its sophisticated production even surpasses that of a large number of top commercial animation production companies in Japan.
It happened so suddenly and so shockingly that it was almost unbelievable.
The long-standing disappointment suddenly turned into ecstasy. Countless Chinese animation fans who had been suppressed for too long needed a spring for emotional eruption. And this spring was the "Age of Dawn" that came into being.
It is rare to see a work that can cause such extensive discussions and unanimous praise in the Chinese animation circle.
For commercial entertainment works, this is an almost impossible phenomenon. There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand readers. Entertainment works have to accept subjectivity. It is impossible for a work to please everyone at the same time.
"Age of Dawn" did it to a certain extent. It is not perfect. The line design is a bit mediocre and the dubbing performance is not strong enough. If you want to find faults, you can find many problems in it.
But it is also perfect, because no matter how many these small problems there are, the audience will not care. Art is about accepting subjectivity. Fans want to see a domestic animation that can bestow gods, and the hard power of "Age of Dawn" is completely
It met fans' expectations and even exceeded them, so it was pushed to the altar amidst the wave of expectations.
Even if you can see some criticism on some animation forums, most of them will be about the plot, the dubbing, etc. After analyzing it, I never forget to add the last sentence. Despite this, I still praise "Dawn".
era".
To be honest, "Age of Dawn" has indeed been over-praised. If the production level of subsequent sequels does not reach the level of the first episode and declines significantly, it can be expected that the current praise will turn into overwhelming criticism and negative voices.
But this kind of huge attention is what every video platform is happy to see.
While Guan Lang was having dinner, he received a call from Shanghai.
He bowed and apologized to everyone, then went out and answered the phone.
The bidding negotiations for domestic broadcast rights that are being negotiated in Shanghai are also coming to an end, and there are currently only two video platforms left.
One is Penguin Video, which is backed by Penguin Group, which has a lot of money, and the other is Bilibili, which is based on the second dimension.
The offer for exclusive broadcast rights has both exceeded a huge amount of two million for a single episode.
The significance of this huge investment is not only in the animation itself, but also in spending money to compete for the paying user base.
But at this moment, the top executives of both parties unanimously proposed the idea of meeting Guan Lang himself to determine the final offer.
So he needs to fly to Shanghai in the next two days.
This is also the idea of the top executives of the two video platforms. They want to see face to face his existence as a legendary producer and a rising star in the domestic animation circle.
It is difficult to determine the specific content of many negotiations without face-to-face consultation and communication with him.
Unlike ordinary producers, Guan Lang is really important to "Age of Dawn".
He is responsible for all the production on his own. He alone represents the production team of "Age of Dawn" and is the ceiling of the production level of the Chinese animation industry.
Whether he can maintain a high level of production, team formation, the frequency of follow-up updates, and even his participation in the planning of some promotional activities are all crucial.
Guan Lang responded on the phone and clarified his itinerary to Shanghai.
It is true that some things cannot be dealt with forever.
An investment of such a large amount of money cannot be as random as the sharing model provided by Netflix.
Although he has always been indifferent to money, as he grows older, it is urgent to expand his small treasury.
For large expenditures such as buying a car or even a house, he can't just reach out to his parents to ask for money like an old man.
The sale of the broadcast rights this time can be regarded as resolving his urgent need.
