"Last night I had dinner out with Zhang Yi, Brother Bo and the others. Didn't Zhang Yi just come back from filming in the southwest? I wanted to give him some food. Those guys couldn't stop drinking. It was almost midnight when they got home, so I didn't give it to you.
Call up……"
"No, I didn't go to sing, I just drank. It's not like you don't know that Brother Bo is known to be able to survive defeats, but he was so good at it that he even got over it... I'm fine, I didn't drive, Lu Xiao took me home...
…”
"The Chuanchuan is still at Xiao Hu's place. I'm on my way to the studio now. I'll pick it up when I come back..."
"I don't have any plans today, I just made an appointment with Diao Yinan in the afternoon..."
"Oh, I see. Uh-huh! Bye!"
"Hey, I've actually changed my temper!"
He Xin hung up the phone, smiled and shook his head.
My girlfriend seems to be getting more and more clingy. I didn't call her last night. I called her early in the morning and asked her about my itinerary in detail, which I never usually ask.
After that, he actually asked to kiss her on the phone. He was surprised, but at the same time he was also a little proud.
He drove his girlfriend's champagne-colored Ma Liu, turned right along Jiuxianqiao Road and entered Route 797 in the 798 Art District. He went all the way to Route 706 North Third Street and turned left. Go forward fifty meters and turn right into a small road.
At the end, there is an office building covered with scaffolding. There is a lot of earth piled in the open space in front, and a small excavator is leveling and shaping the building.
There is no other way. If you have money, you will be bored.
"Wulin Gaiden" made a lot of money. After discussing with the two bosses, Xiao Douding's first thing was to carry out construction work and occupy three-quarters of the unused part of the studio, including the entire facade and a small area on the south side.
The green spaces have been renovated and tidied up.
He Xin has seen the renderings, including his and Ning Hao's offices, editing room, small screening room, etc., everything is available.
The open space and large lawn in front will also be planted with some rare plants. There will also be a barbecue party and the like.
"boss!"
"boss!"
"..."
When he carefully walked through the doorway under the scaffolding, as soon as he entered, no matter the newly recruited employees, as well as the earliest He Lirong and Wang Qin, they all called him "boss" when they saw him, even Xiao Luzi was no exception.
"what's the situation?"
"Sister Hu, oh no, Mr. Hu said in a meeting that our studio will definitely develop and grow in the future. During this development stage, all colleagues in the studio must closely unite around Mr. Hu and stay consistent with Mr. Hu."
He Lirong, the studio's newly appointed publicity director, said seriously.
"What nonsense is this about establishing a personality cult? Also, from now on, if you are not the boss of the boss, you will just call me brother as before!" He Xin rolled his eyes at her and said angrily.
"Oh, by the way, where are you Mr. Hu?"
"Mr. Hu left early in the morning."
"What's up?"
"have no idea."
"Oh, just be busy and don't worry about me."
Originally, due to the limited scale of the studio, only a quarter of it was renovated. The two bosses, He Xin and Ning Hao, did not have their own offices. They came over occasionally and stayed in the reception room and conference room.
"elder brother!"
Lu Xiao sneaked in with a cup of tea.
"Is something wrong?"
Seeing that he put the tea on the table but he didn't leave, He Xin couldn't help but raise his head and ask.
"Brother, Mr. Hu has been discussing cooperation with a game company recently. It seems that we are going to adapt our "Wulin Gaiden" into an online game."
"Yeah?"
He Xin was stunned for a moment. If Xiao Luzi hadn't mentioned it, he would have really forgotten about it. There was indeed an online game called "Wulin Gaiden" in his previous life. However, he never played games. He only played games during a certain period of time when surfing the Internet.
Advertisements for this game are often singled out.
Another important reason why he didn't hesitate to mortgage his house to get "Wulin Gaiden" was that he was interested in the cultural derivatives after "Wulin Gaiden". Games were the top priority.
It may be that the profit from the TV series "Wulin Gaiden" alone made him forget about it. In addition, he has been busy tinkering with "Latent" during this period, and he actually forgot about such an important matter.
But he was a little strange. When he first entered the door, he asked Xiao Douding where he had gone, but no one in the studio knew. Looking at Xiao Luzi's mysterious look, he asked: "How do you know?"
"When Mr. Hu was on the phone, I overheard something."
He Xin understood, and he dared to love that this guy Xiao Luzi was lurking and acting as an informer for him. Although he and Ning Hao both trusted Xiao Douding, there was someone who could secretly keep an eye on him in the studio and communicate with him.
, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. He gave Xiao Luzi an appreciative look, nodded and said, "Oh, I understand, go ahead and do your work."
When Xiao Luzi received the boss's encouragement, he immediately grinned and said hurriedly: "Hey, brother, I'm leaving."
When this guy turned around and left, his steps became light.
After Xiao Luzi left, He Xin thought about it. Although he had never played computer games or mobile games in his previous life, he knew that the prospects of the game industry were amazing.
When he opened the canteen, he sold Q-coin cards for a certain period of time. Many primary school students came to buy them, and they became a stable source of income for the canteen.
Moreover, online games are still synonymous with getting rich these days, and they are a money-sucking beast. Boss Chen of Shanda Network has become the richest man in the country by playing games, and the man from Shanghai Ninth City who represents "World of Warcraft" has actually started playing football.
You must know that those who dare to play football in China are not ordinary people. For example, last year the arrogant and arrogant Uncle Benshan took over the Liaoning Football Team and followed suit and started playing football. As a result, in less than a year, he was doing well in other fields.
When Uncle Benshan got up, he left in despair and bluntly said: Chinese football cannot afford it!
However, the prospect was tempting, but he knew nothing about this industry. He wanted to call Ning Hao and ask Ning Hao. Then he thought about it. Apart from being a dad, this guy is now focused on the post-production of "Stone". Yesterday
He didn't even have time to go out for a drink at night, so he probably wouldn't be able to get anything out of him.
It wasn't until noon that I saw Little Douding coming back in a hurry.
Chuan Chuan actually came back with her, with a small bell hanging around his neck, jingling. As soon as he entered the door, he probably smelled the warm air in He Xin, and ran inside quickly. Seeing He Xin, he was extremely happy.
He kept throwing himself at me.
While He Xin comforted the little guy, he said to Xiao Douding who appeared at the door with a smile: "Why do you always take it with you when you go out?"
"This guy is so clingy that I can't live without him."
Xiao Douding waved his hand and said with a smile: "Boss, you should come to the studio to take charge this time, right?"
"What kind of town are you sitting in? You don't even have an office. Are you supervising the work?" He Xin joked at her.
Xiao Douding looked relaxed and said with a smile: "Boss, why are you here today?"
"Oh, I made an appointment with Diao Yinan in the afternoon, and by the way, he took me back home."
He seemed to be able to understand human speech, and when he heard the word "go home", his dog's head kept jumping up.
As he said that, he looked at the cheerful little Douding and said, "Looking at the happy look on your face, have you found another good project?"
"Hey, boss, have you guessed it?" Xiao Douding said in surprise.
"What did you guess?"
"Stop pretending to be stupid, just play the "Perfect World" game I told you about last time."
"Oh, this..." he said as if he suddenly realized something.
In fact, he didn't know what the game "Perfect World" was at all. As for Xiao Douding's mention of it to him, he had no impression at all.
"Let me tell you, it's the company that developed the game "Perfect World". Before the Chinese New Year, when "Wulin Gaiden" first became popular, they came to us and wanted to buy the game copyright..."
"Uh, so you're negotiating a copyright sale with them?" The guy's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"Tch, you think I'm stupid! It's not a business, it's a cooperation!"
"Cooperate? Are they willing?"
Although He Xin doesn't understand games, he does know about copyrights. For example, if there is a popular TV series and he wants to buy the rights and adapt it into a movie, but the company refuses to sell it and wants to take the copyright as a stock, then he must do a good job
Think about it. If you are really optimistic about it, you would rather increase the acquisition price than let others take a piece of the pie in vain.
"Of course I didn't want to at first. But of course we need to talk about business! Anyway, now we are like the emperor's daughter who has no worries about getting married. I have the patience to work with them, and I don't want to acquire the copyright of the "Wulin Gaiden" game.
Their family."
Xiao Douding does have this confidence. Wulin Gaiden has been aired in the second round on major satellite TVs during this period. The ratings are said to have hit new highs repeatedly and it is very popular!
"So, there is progress now?" He Xin said with the same surprise.
If we can really cooperate, it will be tantamount to adding a stable and long-term financial source to the studio!
"Of course, if I take action, there will be no disadvantages!" Xiao Douding said with a proud look on his face.
He continued: "Actually, I had thought about it from the beginning. The copyright of "Wulin Gaiden" is in our hands. Since it is so popular now and the audience likes it so much, of course we have to make good use of it! Not only the game, but also
Long-form animations, dramas, musicals, and peripheral products can all be developed.”
At the end of the sentence, Xiaodou Ding said with joy: "Boss, do you know, this time we have a golden baby! In fact, I wanted to give you and Mouse a surprise at the beginning, but you guessed it unexpectedly. However, you
I'm afraid I just guessed the beginning but not the end? How about it, are you surprised?"
Of course He Xin was pleasantly surprised. The current "Wulin Gaiden" is the kind of big IP that is often referred to in later generations. But to be honest, he doesn't understand anything about this new so-called IP development. For him, all he needs to do is see the money.
Just fine.
This guy acted like a shopkeeper and waved his hand: "Anyway, you can just take care of this matter. I don't care."
"Tch, I knew it."
Xiao Douding snorted, then frowned and said: "Boss, our business has expanded a lot now. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to use the name of the studio again. It's time to upgrade the company."
"Okay, I'll tell Haozi later and you can go through the specific procedures."
Upgrading from a studio to a company means that the expenses in taxes and operations will be larger, but now He Xin doesn't care at all, as the same sentence still applies: there is no shortage of money!
"Then does what you and Mouse said before about incentive shares still count?" Xiao Douding said slightly shyly.
"Well, of course this counts. But what about the specific share... We still have to sit down and discuss it with Mouse. Will the brothers settle the accounts clearly? What do you think?"
"No problem, as long as you keep your word!" Xiao Douding said happily.
"Oh, by the way, boss, there is one more thing. Your schoolmate Chen Xi told me last time that she wanted to do an internship with us," Xiao Douding said again.
"Does she still need to come to our small temple for internship?" He Xin said unexpectedly.
That Chen Xi is a well-known rich second generation. His family's assets are among the top ten in Harbin, and he can even open a movie company.
"I don't know either. Her tone doesn't sound like she's joking."
He Xin thought for a while and said, "Since she wants to come, let her come."
For a rich second generation like Chen Xi, it might be just for fun to study acting, so he didn't take it to heart. Anyway, she didn't have many projects recently, and she might not be able to stay for two days before leaving.
The two chatted about some of the current work in the studio, such as decoration. After a while, Xiao Luzi knocked on the door and came in and asked: "Brother, Mr. Hu, what do you want to have for lunch?"
"I want some stir-fried beef noodles."
"me too."
"By the way, tell them when you go over that the array of lunch boxes yesterday was fresh at all. If this happens again next time, we won't order their lunch boxes."
"Okay, I promise to give Boss Wan a lesson."
Going out from the alley in front of the studio, there is a new restaurant opened along 706 North Third Street. It is called Canteen. The slogan on the sign is quite grand, focusing on Asian flavor. In fact, the business here is average, just making rice bowls.
For cooking and the like, the studio really uses that place as a canteen.
While waiting for the meal, He Xin suddenly remembered to look up the game company called Perfect World mentioned by Xiao Douding on the Internet. According to Xiao Douding, he not only wanted to cooperate with them in games, but also to cooperate in the development of full-length animations.
piece.
You wouldn’t know if you didn’t check it, but you’d be really shocked if you checked it.
This Perfect World Game Company is different from agency-based game companies such as Shanda and The9. The large-scale online game "Perfect World" they are currently focusing on is actually developed by themselves.
And the boss of this company is a guy named Chi Yufeng. He is a top student at Tsinghua University. He started his career in educational software and has a series of titles:
"Top Ten Outstanding Young People in China's Software Industry"
"Top Ten Outstanding Entrepreneurs in Zhongguancun"
"Top Ten Leading Figures in Chinese Software Enterprises"
"Outstanding Young Entrepreneurs in Beijing" and so on.
Now he was completely relieved. It was just like buying things online. Sellers with more crowns and more positive reviews would definitely be able to attract more customers.
