City: Become a principal from junior college!

Chapter 269 Big Windmill!Earn money before you finish it!
"La la la la la la, la la la la la la la..."

(The tune of Peppa Pig’s theme song is automatically brought in here)
The sound of light and joyful music sounded in Ye Chen's office.

Ye Chen moved his eyes away from the screen and looked at the teachers beside him.

Ye Chen could see obvious approval and relief on the teachers' faces.

Obviously, the teachers are very satisfied with the work "Little Cat Porridge".

Only nine days have passed.

The students then produced the first seven episodes of the work.

As for the suitable voice actor, it was found very quickly.

And they are basically young and in good health.

The reason why I care about the health of the voice actors is because Kitty Porridge has the potential to become an anime series.

This kind of unit drama has no main line and is composed entirely of small stories.

As long as the craftsmanship is good, the audience is willing to continue watching.

Then you can keep creating like Doraemon and Conan, and there will be no end.

In this case, the physical health of the voice actor is very important.

If the dubbing actors are suddenly replaced due to health problems, it will definitely make the old audience uncomfortable.

This kind of thing is very common in the anime world.

Therefore, dubbing artists hired by Star Animation Company must undergo a physical examination before signing a contract.

At the same time, the contract also limits the salary increase in each season.

Up to 20.00%.

This is to avoid the situation where the voice actors see the work becoming popular and feel indispensable, so they open their mouths.

The reason why Marvel’s older generation Iron Man and the like have to die.

The main reason is that the production company can hardly afford the salary.

The second is the theme song.

People in the company made appointments with many master composers.

As a result, it happened that I got a piece of music from Teacher Park that he had accidentally composed a long time ago.

The rhythm is brisk and joyful, and the tone is exceptionally simple.

Listening to it makes people feel relaxed.

It's perfect for a light-hearted children's work like Kitten Porridge.

The company was not stingy at all and simply bought the copyright of this short piece of music for 50 yuan.

All preparations went incredibly smoothly.

The finished product produced by the students was blessed with excellent dubbing and suitable music.

It also looks better.

There are a total of seven episodes of children's animation, each episode is only five or six minutes long.

But it stands to reason that if adults watch it, it will still seem a bit long and torturous.

After all, few adults can tolerate children's animation.

But right here in the office.

While Ye Chen and all the teachers were watching, they didn't show any signs of impatience.

Instead, he was immersed in it, and chuckled from time to time because of the childlike words of the protagonist Porridge.

It is enough to show the excellence of the work.

"It's very good. The next step is to show the finished product to shareholders and talk about the price."

Ye Chen spoke directly.

Co-shareholders of Xingchen Animation Company.

They are basically entertainment giants.

There is Disney abroad and Xunteng domestically.

There is no shortage of buyers for the works.

The works will be given priority to the other party.

If the price cannot be negotiated, or the other party is not interested.

Only then will we find other partners.

However, Wan Laiming, a teacher from the animation department’s directing class, rubbed his chin and said in thought: “It would be a bit of a waste to go directly to the website!”

"Principal, you also know that I worked with Channel [-] before I came here and made many movies for them."

"The animation Kitten Porridge is very suitable for Channel [-]'s requirements for children's animation works."

"There is no bloody violence, it is educational, and the image is very good."

"I think we can try to communicate with the TV station before going on the website."

"If we can successfully sell the first-run broadcast to Channel [-] and broadcast it on TV stations, it will have huge benefits for Mao Mao Porridge's influence."

Hearing this, Ye Chen's eyes lit up instantly.

yes……

There is no need to focus entirely on streaming media.

The TV station is totally worth choosing.

Although TV stations are not very profitable nowadays, most of them cannot afford high prices and are not as wealthy as websites.

But the problem is that the other party is the official mainstream media after all.

The coverage is wide enough and the attention is high enough.

If it can be played on it, it won't do much good for the spread of the work's fame.

Moreover, even if the TV station broadcasts it, it will not affect the website’s broadcast.

After all, the TV station can only watch it once, so it is easy to miss it.

In addition, most people nowadays prefer streaming media to watch cartoons for their children.

Therefore, there are no disadvantages in being broadcast on television, only advantages.

Not to mention it’s still Channel [-].

After thinking for a while, Ye Chen solemnly nodded and approved Teacher Wan's suggestion.

Teacher Wan saw Ye Chen looking at him and waved his hand: "Principal, I'm talking about the world I came from. I don't recognize people from TV stations in this world, so I can't help bridge the gap for the college."

Hearing this, Ye Chen shook his head.

Ye Chen didn't mean this.

And this little thing is really not much trouble to Ye Chen.

The identity of the principal is attractive enough.

Enough to make many people willing to take the initiative to make friends.

Not to mention Ye Chen’s current connections and influence.

Except for a few people who stand at the pinnacle of power.

Ye Chen basically has no one he can't date now.

Ye Chen's execution ability has always been extremely high.

Now that you’ve decided what to do.

Naturally, execution started immediately.

After Ye Chen made a few calls.

Before waiting for 10 minutes, Ye Chen's cell phone rang, with a series of unfamiliar numbers on it.

When Ye Chen picked up the answer, a hearty voice sounded: "Hello, Principal Ye, I am the person in charge of the Windmill column of CCTV..."

"I heard from a friend that principal, if you have something to ask me about, don't be polite, just tell me..."

Ye Chen listened and raised his eyebrows.

I actually didn’t say who I was looking for specifically.

Unexpectedly, I finally found the person in charge of the Windmill column.

Needless to say, Big Windmill, when the other party mentioned these three words.

A melody that he thought he had forgotten, but actually hadn't forgotten, automatically played in Ye Chen's mind.

The big windmill squeaks and spins, the scenery here is so beautiful...

This is the animation program broadcast on Channel [-] at [-]:[-].

Very popular with children.

When Ye Chen was in his last life, the first thing he did when he came home from school every day was to sit in front of the computer and watch cartoons.

I watched a lot of classic animations on it.

What impressed me the most was an animation of a cat and a dog whose bodies grow together.

Ye Chen said a few polite words and quickly told him that he had a children's cartoon and wanted to go to the windmill.Hearing this, the other party was not surprised.

I guess I guessed it immediately after getting the news.

After all, those who can become the person in charge of the program team are all talented people.

Not to mention that Star Academy also has an affiliated animation company.

It's too easy to guess.

The other party did not refuse, but made it clear first: "Dafenche does have a demand for external animation subscriptions every year. After all, it is not appropriate to replay classic old animations all the time. But our requirements for the positive energy of the works are very high. , the review is very strict..."

Of course Ye Chen knew this, Teacher Wan had told him before.

So he immediately smiled: "Don't worry, the quality of the work is no problem, it is full of positive energy, and it can completely withstand the review..."

The other person agreed quickly: "When will the principal send someone to the Imperial City, let me take a look at the work first. If there is no problem, I will submit it."

It can be seen that the other party really wants to make friends with Ye Chen.

In just a few words, both parties finished talking about everything.

For specific matters, Ye Chen definitely does not need to follow them personally.

Is it possible for the kitten porridge to ride on the windmill?

Ye Chen didn't have any worries.

There is absolutely no problem with the content of such a cartoon created entirely for children.

And sure enough.

But the next day, after reading the work, the person in charge called me with great excitement.

I am full of praise for the quality of the kitten porridge.

But it is Channel One after all. To avoid risks, it is impossible to accept the format of production and broadcast at the same time.

You have to wait until the entire episode is produced before reviewing it for playback.

Ye Chen can understand.

After telling the approximate completion date.

The other party directly booked the schedule, and the review time was shortened to three days.

It can be said that after the finished product is produced by Xingchen Animation Company.

The other party can immediately help pass the review and get the version number to be broadcast on the star.

Basically there is no need to wait.

It can be said to be extremely powerful.

Of course, although the benefits of being on Channel [-] are huge, there are also disadvantages.

That means the price given is not high.

On the one hand, Channel [-] itself has huge communication value.

Even if it doesn’t cost money, there are many movies and TV series that are willing to appear.

This is completely a buyer's market.

On the other hand, each episode of Kitty Porridge is too short.

Only half of the normal animation work.

So the person in charge also said it bluntly, even if he helped to fight for it.

The first broadcast rights channel can only give a maximum of [-] per episode.

Thirty episodes would be 300 million.

This is indeed not a high price.

For the animation of Kitten Porridge.

The dubbing cost 50.

The theme song cost 50.

Although the students' salary is only [-], the company has to pay five social insurances and one housing fund as well as various hidden benefits.

Spend at least [-] per month for each person.

There are thirty people in the kitten porridge group.

By the time Kitty Porridge is expected to be completely completed, the students have already been working on it for three months.

The manpower expenditure is at least 180 million.

When all expenditures are added up, there must be 300 million.

The first-round broadcast rights of Channel [-] were sold, which means they have just recovered their money.

But it's not a big problem.

TV stations are not in the main profit range.

It is an unexpected surprise to have 300 million.

And if it is on Channel [-], the price of domestic online broadcast rights will definitely increase a lot.

Not necessarily abroad.

But the spread of kitten porridge in China will definitely increase.

Wait for the official broadcast.

As long as it is popular, there will definitely be many physical manufacturers who want to obtain IP authorization.

When the time comes, I will make toys and then sell and license the image, and I will definitely make a lot of money.

Therefore, even if Channel [-] gives less.

But overall, the pros definitely outweigh the cons.

And sure enough.

Xunteng, one of the shareholders, after seeing the finished product and confirming that Kitten Porridge will star.

He directly offered a price of 30 per episode to buy the domestic online broadcast rights of Mao Mao Porridge.

Channel [-] airs first every day.

Then Penguin Video will update at [-]pm.

5 minutes, 30 million.

Although this price cannot be said to be cheap, it is indeed quite affordable.

As for foreign countries.

Because it has the achievements of the previous three animation works.

The animation production abilities of Xingchen students have long been recognized.

Although they are curious about why Star Academy is quietly engaged in children's animation.

But after seeing the samples, I felt it was okay.

So they basically signed an intention cooperation agreement.

However, most of the prices are not high.

For example, in Island Country, an episode costs US$[-].

Cold Country, $[-] an episode.

The prices offered by Disney in Europe and America are too low.

It was confirmed by Netflix at an intended price of US$[-] per episode.

At this point, the kitten porridge is not finished yet.

But he has already made a lot of money.

A total of 70 yuan per episode abroad.

In China, there is Xunteng, which costs RMB 30 per episode.

Counting the entire season of Mao Mao Porridge, the net profit from the online broadcast rights alone was almost 3000 million yuan.

To be honest, Ye Chen felt that this income was not too high.

But it’s the first season after all, so let’s get famous first.

When it becomes popular, the price will naturally be higher.

Moreover, for a work with a cute image like Kitten Porridge, IP licensing is the main source of income.

For example, Kitty is a kitten that everyone is familiar with. Some of them have never even seen related cartoons, but they can be seen everywhere in daily life.

Earning money from IP licensing is as easy as picking up money.

This is the biggest advantage of this type of cute anime image works.

Therefore, when Ye Chen was negotiating the intended contract, he basically did not bargain on the price.

The first goal of Xingchen Animation Company is to make Kitten Porridge as popular as possible.

Only in this way can real benefits be maximized.
