Entertainment starts with variety shows

Chapter 74
After drinking for three rounds, the two had a great time making skewers.

"Brother Xu! Your novel ended last year, right? You haven't coded this time, so what are you doing?"

"Who said I didn't have code words? It's just that I didn't write in the reading point. I changed my work place to my home and uploaded it after I finished writing."

"Oh!!" Fang Jing understood. Tomb Raiders Notes became popular, and the physical publication alone sold tens of millions. It's just that there was nothing wrong with the third uncle, and he took a small part of the copyright fee.

I heard that at the beginning of the year, I had a long discussion with Yuedian in order to get back the copyright. I don't know how much I paid, but it was definitely not easy.

This time I have learned well, and I don’t plan to publish it in the reading point, and the copyright must be held in my own hands.

"Ask me, how much did you sell in Huanrui this time?"

After looking around to make sure no one was paying attention, Xu Shi stretched out five fingers.

"5000?"

"Pfft!" Xu Shi spat out the wine in one gulp.

"Brother, how dare you think, 500 million!"

"so little?"

This time it was Fang Jing's turn to be surprised. He remembered that Li Yifeng's Notes on Tomb Raiders became a hit as soon as it was released, and Huanrui World earned more than 4 million yuan.

iQi Video gained more than 1000 million members.

Not to mention that Huanrui World later sold the third part of Tomb Raiders Notes to Xiao Ma for several hundred million.

Xu Shi gave Fang Jing a white look, "Is this still too little? Do you know how much Ghost Chuideng sold? 220 million!"

"I'm satisfied if I can sell 500 million yuan, it's not too little!"

Relying on this novel, Xu Shi made tens of millions successively, and there are few in the entire online literature world that can compare.

Fang Jing tried to ask, "All the copyrights of the nine titles have been sold?"

"Yeah! I sold the film and television copyright for six years."

For a moment, Fang Jing was discouraged. Originally, he wanted to buy two more, even if they were not filmed, they would appreciate in value.

This thing makes more money than real estate speculation. As someone who has been there, he knows how much money this IP will make in the future
"Brother Xu, have you ever thought about running your own business?"

"Why didn't you think about it?" Xu Shi took a sip of wine, "I will set up a company in March this year, and plan to engage in the Tomb Raider Notes game."

"All the wealth was thrown in, and two more partners were recruited, and the result was a mess. Now those two buddies are almost on the roof."

"The company is going to break up, the company can't continue, and now I can't get a dime out of the account, otherwise I wouldn't have sold the copyright for 500 million."

Xu Shi took it easy, he was not a business material, he wrote a book honestly, and strived for a good price for the next book.

Fang Jing's eyes lit up, his heart was beating non-stop, and he took a few deep breaths before he recovered.

"That is to say, you are the only polished commander in the company now?"

"Ok!"

Leaning forward, Fang Jing said in a deep voice, "Why don't I become a shareholder, how about the two of us running the business together?"

"You're kidding me!" Xu Shi was taken aback.

He knows how much money celebrities can earn. Take the overcoat brother who was popular two years ago, for example, there is not a single work. Now he is running around in commercial performances, and it is easy to earn 800 million a year.

Not to mention Fang Jing, as long as he charges for his songs, he will have money until he dies.

"No kidding, I paid for a part of the shares, and we will invest in our own dramas in the future."

Fang Jing knew Xu Shi's potential, and it would be great for him to develop in the future. Just the golden signboard of Nanpai Sanshu can make money.

In his previous life, the third uncle's game hit the market, and the company fell into a trough. He didn't regain his popularity until the broadcast of Tomb Raider Notes in Huanrui World, and several large companies raised funds.

It went smoothly in the future, and successively invested in the filming of Shahai and Laojiumen, as well as the Tomb Raiders Notes movie, earning a lot of real money.

"Oh! I sold all the copyrights, so I don't have anything to shoot."

It would be a lie for Xu Shi to say that he is not tempted, but he can only get a small part of the money while watching the works sell well. Only the person concerned can understand this kind of pain.

If he had met Fang Jing an hour earlier, he would not have sold the copyright.

"Write it if you don't have it! You can create notes on tomb robbers, can't you write other excellent works?"

Fang Jing didn't care. Compared to him as a writer, Third Uncle is a real expert in online literature, with strong writing skills and a lot of fans.

Open a new book, and some people will read it.

Xu Shi hesitated, "I recently wrote a book, which is a prequel to Notes on Tomb Raiders, but it's just the beginning. I don't know how the market will be."

"What's the name? I'll help you refer to it."

"Old Nine Gates is the Nine Gates mentioned in the Notes of Tomb Raiders. It belongs to another series and tells the story of a family of tomb robbers during the Republic of China."

"Snapped!"

Fang Jing patted the table, and the plate clanged and moved, startling Xu Shi.

"Just write this! After writing, let's recruit investors to make TV dramas."

"Do you know how much it costs to make a TV series?" Hearing Fang Jing's light words, Xu Shi couldn't help complaining, "The actor's salary is hundreds of millions, plus miscellaneous expenses, there is no way to shoot without two or three hundred million."

"It's not a problem, you just write it, and the actor will give it to me, and I promise you won't get so much money."

"But……"

"Don't worry, that's it. You go back and deal with the mess. I'll find a lawyer to sign a contract with you later."

As soon as the Tomb Raider Notes was broadcast, the third uncle became a fragrant bun. There was no need to worry about investors, Fang Jing had to get on the boat quickly.

"Okay! Then how much do you plan to invest?"

"100 million in the early stage, and I will make more money later on."

"But what are we doing now?" Xu Shi was troubled, "The company is just an empty shell, so we can't continue to make games, right?"

Fang Jing: ...

If he plays games again, he will probably be the next one to go to the rooftop.

"The game will be released in advance. We are currently focusing on the IP operation of online novels. You can write the old nine gates as you like, and we will also acquire the copyrights of other novels."

Fang Jing talked about several web articles that will be put on the screen in the future, and some of them are even serialized.

Now the adaptation of novels into film and television is not popular, and the price is not high, such as Notes on Tomb Raiders is considered sky-high.

As for other novels, hehe!Hundreds of thousands are high.

When the novel is put on the screen, the author's value will increase a hundred times, and more people will read the next novel. This is why some masters later prefer to sell the copyright at a low price.

……

A month later, a company in Hangzhou formerly known as Nanpai Investment Management took off its brand and replaced it with Nanjing Entertainment, with Xu Shi as its legal person and Xu Li as its second largest shareholder.

In order to avoid trouble, Fang Jing did not put his name on it, but chose to ask teacher Xu Li to help, and the actual shareholder was still him.

"Hu! Hu! Hu!"

In the Huanrui World Building, Xiong Li was training again. Dozens of people below were listening carefully, but the last row snored slightly from time to time.

Seeing Xiong Li glanced here several times, Liu Wei gently nudged Fang Jing with his elbow.

Fang Jing slept very lightly, and woke up in an instant, squinting his tired eyes and looking at Liu Wei.

During this period of time, he was too tired. In addition to the 100 million invested in Xu Shi, he took the initiative to ask Yang Ning for seven or eight commercial performances, and collected more than 90.

Although Fang Jing is not as famous as a second-tier star, and there are not many endorsements for him, there are still a lot of small commercial performances, ranging from tens of thousands to more than 20 to [-].

It's just that Yang Ning felt that the low price was a waste of time, so she suppressed it.

If Fang Jing hadn't said that he was short of money, Yang Ning would not have let him pick him up even if he was killed.
