Chapter 76 No shortage of projects
This is what to do to build a platform and to make your own distribution channels.
However, with the current size of "dimensional entertainment", it is almost impossible to achieve great things in these aspects.
In terms of video, the giants that started in China currently compete fiercely with each other, and at the same time, they are also very expensive in terms of content introduction.
At present, in Fan Zhe's conception, the most ideal state is still in the glass-slag battle net model.
Mainly do your own content and publish your own works.
It’s just that people are making games, and Fan Zhe is thinking about the future ‘dimensional platform’, which should be a three-dimensional content distribution platform.
For a long time in the future, these things can only stay in the stage of conception, but he believes that with the future development of "Dimensional Entertainment", this is not an unrealized dream.
As for participating in the spring recruitment of major universities, this is another aspect.
Weidu Entertainment has never slowed down its development and expansion, especially now that its finances have become healthy.
The development team is not expanding so quickly, but it is time for other departments to be built.
After the Spring Festival, with the assistance of Tang Zhiqi, Fan Zhe began to formally build the company's personnel, finance, market, business and other departments, and also launched recruitment for university graduates in major universities.
Recruiting college students is mainly to reserve more talents for the company for internal exploration.
In fact, Weidu Entertainment holds very few job fairs in comprehensive universities, only one held at Jiangning University in Jiangning City not far from Shenghai, and one held at Jiaotong University in Shenghai.
The other focus is mainly on Fan Zhe's alma mater, Shenghai Art Institute, and several art academies such as Gome, Sichuan Mei, Guangmei, etc.
For the current Dimension Entertainment, administration, personnel and other departments are of secondary importance, and the expansion of the development team is more important.
At present, Weidu Entertainment has more than 40 employees, and Fan Zhe is preparing to expand this number to about 100 to 200 within one to two years.
Of course, this is just a goal, and ultimately depends on the company's business development.
...
Last time, on the day the second season of "Full Time" premiered, Kappa, who called Van Che, had another purpose in addition to reporting good news.
He is tempting questions about the renewal of the season 3 animation.
The number of views of a single episode that day exceeded 3 million, which has already shown that the results of "Full Time" in the second season will not be worse.
This is true. By the time the second and third episodes came out, the total number of views had exceeded 20 million.
It only took two weeks in total. If this trend continues, the total number of plays over 100 million at the end of the second season of "Full Time" was almost certain, and the results were already stronger than the first season.
The investment in the first season was too large and I didn’t make much money; in the second season, the production cost was similar to that in the first season, and the investment in promotion and promotion was similar, but it seemed that I could make a profit.
At the same time, the popularity of the second season will inevitably lead to the results of the upcoming TV series.
This wave of profits.
Under such circumstances, Lewen Group certainly wants to renew its contract, and hopes that Weidu Entertainment can still serve as the producer of the third season.
In the phone, Kappa mentioned this implicitly and said that it could maintain the original price renewal.
Fan Zhe did not agree.
The second season is popular and the results are achieved. The third season maintains the original price? It is impossible.
On this point, Fan Zhe has the same attitude as the two partners discussed by Lewen Group before.
After hearing Fan Zhe's clear rejection, Lewen Group also temporarily stopped.
The second season has just been launched and has not been broadcasted. According to estimates, even if the third season is projected and started production, it will be launched until the first half of next year.
They are not in a hurry.
Fan Zhe was even less anxious.
Weidu Entertainment is not losing money now, it has to accept other people’s third-party production projects.
Do it? You can do it, give money, and there is definitely no need to talk about a single episode of one million.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't do it, he really doesn't lack projects now.
The second season of "Special Events Task Force" has been completed and delivered to Penguin Video and B station, and is scheduled to be launched in early March, only three months after the first season.
The animation of the third season has already started after the company started construction after the New Year.
The leader of the art team is still Sun Yilang. He is leading his team to paint the character of the third season. At the same time, Yuan Zhenshan took his assistant and worked with the original author to work on the script.
In the third season, Fan Zhe planned fifteen episodes of content, and the entire project is expected to be completed in June.
At the same time, Wu Jingtong has also taken over the animation copyright sales work in the third season.
However, pricing and formal negotiations will inevitably be decided after the second season is broadcast and the results are released.
Fan Zhe was full of confidence in this.
The results of the first season became popular. Although it was not the kind of big hit work, it has accumulated a group of loyal fans with its own special style.
With the support of these loyal fans, the results of the second season will be guaranteed; as long as the results of the second season are pretty good, the prices of the third season will not be lower than those of the second season.
In addition, the special effects production project of the movie "The Legend of Magic" was negotiated, and the contract was signed and effective, with a total price of 20 million yuan.
With this project and the third season of "Task Team", Weidu Entertainment has no shortage of projects in the first half of this year, and its revenue expectations are quite good, and the economic situation will continue to improve.
The company has now entered a benign and rapid development trajectory, and Fan Zhe is very pleased.
In fact, most of the backbone forces of "Dimension Entertainment" are currently invested in "The Legend of the Demonic Shadow".
Fan Zhe himself attaches great importance to this. After all, this is his first time using the 'dimensional' system to produce special effects for a movie.
This is not quite the same as doing animation. Instead, it is more like the CG animation of "Assassination Squad" he created when he just obtained the "Dimensional" system, involving modeling, light and shadow design, and rendering.
Rendering basically has nothing to do with the 'dimensional' system. With Fan Zhe's existing hardware facilities, it does not have the conditions for rendering movie-level special effects.
This must be spent a lot of money to throw it to the Rendering Farm.
And the work before rendering is also challenging.
