Reborn in 2011, 985 missing from two copies

Chapter 326 TV R&D, new strategy!

Seeing the excitement of the two people, Wang Yi had to take a precaution:
"However, this matter may not progress smoothly. In the first few seasons, it depends on whether Youku is willing to let go."

Shen Qianshan nodded: "I understand, just let nature take its course. Our most powerful secret is our production ability. Even if we can't buy Qin Shi Mingyue back, we can still produce more and better works."

"Very good, your concept is right!" Wang Yixiao said.

I admire this kind of invincible Xiaoqiang.

But he knew that there were countless representative works of Xuan Ji in his previous life, and Qin's Moon was just one of them.

Many people can't forget it, but it's just feelings.

Modeling, design, special effects, even the reset version, are far behind.

Not to mention other subsequent works, even the modeling of Tianxing Jiuge is far superior to that of Qin Shi Mingyue.

In 2012, the models in Chinese comics were all ugly.

This is why Wang Yi wanted to draw a model and give them a look.

Wang Yi drew a protagonist, made a prototype, and asked the production team to design other images according to this standard, thereby improving the overall modeling level and preventing the protagonist from being too ugly.

There is no way, the current modeling is too ugly.

Not to mention the ugly modeling of the current Qin Shimingyue and Xia Lan, even the modeling of Dou Po Yi released in 2017 was very crotch-drawing, and Xun'er was scolded on the hot search.

Later, all members underwent plastic surgery, and only then did Yuyou stop talking.

As shown in the picture above, current modeling is at this level, or even worse than this.

There is no way, the limitations of the times.

If Wang Yi doesn't personally model some ugly protagonists in Xuanji, Ruosen, and Xingyi Animation according to the current modeling level, then it won't be over?
In a few years, it will be completely outdated and no one will watch it.

Hundreds of millions of dollars of investment have been wasted. Unless funds are reinvested and everything is remade, it will be even more troublesome.

Therefore, Wang Yicai made the decision to improve the team's aesthetic and overall modeling standards!
Like the remake of Xia Lan. After the remake, the models of all the protagonists are still ugly, and they were killed by Wang Yi N times.

If it weren't for the inability to draw, Wang Yi would have wanted to draw it himself to give them a look.

Finally, Wang Yi communicated bit by bit and personally guided the original artist to make many revisions before it barely met Wang Yi’s requirements, resulting in the most sophisticated modeling at present!
The same is true for the Patriarch of the Demonic Way. He was shot down by Wang Yi N times because the model was too ugly. It was also slowly modified under the guidance of Wang Yi, which was very troublesome.

"As for the purchase price..." Wang Yi paused.

Without the copyright of "Qin Shi Mingyue", the price of Xuanji is greatly reduced. After all, the current Xuanji is just such a work.

Shen Qianshan sighed: "The IP copyright of "Qin Shi Mingyue" is still in our hands, but the first three seasons and the fourth season in production have been signed to Youku. If we can't buy it back, the fourth season will have to be owned by Youku. However, the fifth and sixth seasons will be broadcast exclusively on Xingyi Video.”

Wang Yi understood what Director Guan meant. The only problem was the first four seasons.

If Xingyi Video didn’t have the first four seasons, it wouldn’t make much sense if there were a fifth and sixth season later.

New users who want to watch the first four seasons have to open a Youku membership to watch the first four seasons on Youku, which will divert traffic to Youku!
It would be better to just watch "Tian Xing Jiu Ge" or other anime.

To put it bluntly, either buy back the first four seasons or give up "Qin Shi Mingyue".

Of course it would be best to buy them all.

Wang Yi waved his hand: "Okay, we will talk about "Qin Shi Mingyue" later. The purchase price will be 1 million for you. In addition, Xingyi Media will give Xuanji two S-level major productions to be promoted at the same time. If you have the ability, We can also make another non-annual series, all of which are S-level productions, and the money you can make every year is not a small amount!”

In the previous life, in 2015, Xuanji had produced a number of high-quality animations. Enlight Media took 5% of Xuanji's shares for 2500 million, with a valuation of million.

Nowadays, Xuanji only has one work and does not have complete copyright. It is far from the animation giant in its previous life. Wang Yi's valuation of 100 million is considered reasonable.

What's more, three S-level annual dramas a year can make the entire mystery extremely profitable!
Sure enough, the expressions of Shen Qianshan and Director Guan on the opposite side became very exciting.

After hearing the price of 2 million, the two still hesitated. Their intended price was 2 million, but they also knew that it would be difficult to get million without the full copyright.

But when he heard that there were two annual dramas + one non-annual drama per year, Shen Qianshan was excited! Director Guan was also excited.

Three animations a year, the money is given to Wang Yi, and the IP is given to Wang Yi. They are only responsible for the production, and they make a lot of money with zero risk. It is so exciting.

This is comparable to asking for 100 million more incense.

Xuanji wanted to be acquired by Xingyi Technology because of its continued animation works and subsequent profits.

Shen Qianshan and Director Guan looked at each other, nodded, smiled and stretched out their hands: "Director Wang, we have no objection!"

"Welcome to Xingyi Technology!" Wang Yi smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the two.

At this point, in addition to Ruosen and Xingyi Animation, Xingyi Technology has another top general - Xuanji Technology!

And with the addition of Xuanji, Ruosen and Xingyi Animation will also feel more pressure, so they can compete internally and create more and better animations.

Without opponents, there is no motivation.

Subsequently, the two parties formally signed a contract, and Xuanji was fully acquired by Wang Yi.

For subsequent docking, Jian Ziyan will arrange a professional team to settle in Xuanji.

Production matters, mystery determination, financial matters and other matters are controlled by Xingyi Technology Headquarters.

Wang Yi talked with Shen Qianshan and Director Guan about the upcoming new anime:

"Currently, Xingyi Technology has many high-quality IPs. You may have heard that you can choose one first and make it an annual series! At the same time, recruit people to prepare for the second quarterly series, or half-yearly series! In the second half of the year, we will make the third series. Second edition of the year!”

"Okay, Chairman, we have no problem!" Shen Qianshan was excited. As expected, Wang Yi didn't want to make any mistakes, and directly arranged the three parts!
"Which one do you like in a specific year? You can pick whatever you want, it's a meeting gift." Wang Yixiao said, "If this year's show is done well, Xuan Ji's status in the industry and even the world will be greatly improved. ”

Shen Qianshan also knows the meaning behind this. A "Qin Shi Mingyue" will not bring much brilliance to Xuanji:
"Director Wang, Director Guan and I have discussed it, let's do Luo Dalu! We have read the original work and we like it very much."

"No problem!" Wang Yi readily agreed.

The Douluo Continent in the previous life was made of mystery. With 400 billion views, it was not an ordinary horror.

Most people born in the 80s and 90s grew up watching Ultraman, Naruto, and Pirates, while those born in the 00s and 10s grew up watching Douluo, Dou Po, and Ultraman.

It can be regarded as cultural progress. If it continues to be exported by Japanese comic culture, it will not be good.

"Then "Douluo Dalu" will be produced by you. I will give you 2600 million first and produce 52 episodes! But the standard must be high!"

"No problem!" Director Guan said happily.

2600 million, 52 episodes, one episode is a production cost of .

Before Qin Shi Mingyue, Youku only paid 20 to 30 yuan in production fees for one episode, which was very taxing and often defaulted.

Wang Yi is so generous. From the standard of 50 per episode, 2600 million will be paid directly in one go!
"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, the quality of "Douluo Dalu" will definitely far exceed that of "Xia Lan"!" Shen Qianshan assured, patting his badge.

Wang Yi smiled knowingly: "Very good, Xingyi Technology will not treat any employee who has contributed badly!"

"Thank you, Director Wang." Shen Qianshan was in a good mood: "Also, can we choose the half-year series together and promote it together!"

"Okay, it's your choice." Wang Yi said with a smile, it was time to put some pressure on Ruo Sen.

"Then choose "Zhu Xian". The first season has 26 episodes, which is exactly half a year!"

"Okay, you have good taste." Wang Yixiao said.

Wang Yi felt relieved when he handed over "Zhu Xian" to Xuanji. After all, Xuanji's strength was there.

"By the way, the copyright for "Qin Shi Mingyue" has not yet been secured, but we can create a new prequel. This has nothing to do with Youku." Wang Yi thought of this.

"Prequel?" Shen Qianshan was confused.

Director Guan's eyes lit up: "Wang Dong Ruizhi, this is feasible. The story of Qin Shi Mingyue is the plot after Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, and we can create a prequel to tell the process of Qin's destruction of the six kingdoms. And Qin In the same vein as Shi Mingyue, it can be regarded as a prequel to Qin Shi Mingyue, and it has nothing to do with Youku, so it can be broadcast exclusively on Xingyi Video!"

"I see, it's no problem, it's a good idea." Shen Qianshan nodded.

Later, Wang Yi communicated with Director Guan and Mr. Shen about the setting and plot direction of "Nine Songs of Heaven".

Later, they will arrange for people to produce it themselves.

After all, "Nine Songs of Heaven" was originally created by Xuanji himself, and the original works were all written by Xuanji!
Wang Yi made the final decision: "First focus on "Douluo Dalu" and "Zhu Xian". As for "Tian Xing Jiu Ge", you can first develop the plot, then make it into comics, and launch Xingyi Animation to expand its influence. Wait until next year. The plot is almost done, and the IP influence is high, so it can be filmed and made into a half-year series! "

"Okay, Director Wang."

Soon, a piece of news shocked the entire Internet:

[Xingyi Technology fully acquires Xuanji and will adapt Qidian.com's popular IP "Douluo Dalu"! 】

[The animation of "Douluo Dalu" and "Zhu Xian", invested by Xingyi Technology, an S-level giant production, produced by Xuanji, is worth looking forward to! 】

[In the past, "Xia Lan" and "The Patriarch of the Demonic Way" swept across national comics, and later "Douluo Dalu" and "Zhu Xian" are ready to go. All S-level productions, Xingyi Video will become a new giant in the second dimension! 】

……

Seeing these news, users who like anime are all excited.

Fans of "Douluo Dalu" and "Zhu Xian" are even more delighted.

But Station B felt a huge crisis. Xingyi Video launched animation and directly attacked the base camp of Station B.

And equally angry is Youku!
President Liang Kuan yelled: "Damn it! This white-eyed wolf Xuanji actually defected to Xingyi Technology. What a white-eyed wolf, you are not familiar with it!"

Vice President Duan Mingda was helpless: "There is no way. Xuanji is very ambitious and wants to make the fourth season as good as "Xia Lan". We are not willing to invest more, so they will naturally go to Xingyi Technology."

"This..." Liang Kuan was speechless for a moment and couldn't refute, so he had to say hard: "But if they do this, what will Qin Shimingyue do next? Don't they do it?"

"That's probably it. After all, Wang Yi gave more, and the mystery must be mainly "Douluo Dalu" and "Zhu Xian"." "That's it. The fourth season of "Qin Shi Mingyue" is difficult to produce. We Youku are the only ones who can carry the banner. The animation will also be discontinued." Liang Kuan was helpless.

Duan Mingda nodded: "There is no other way, unless we cooperate with Xingyi Technology to jointly launch the fourth season of "Qin Shi Mingyue"."

"Cooperation?" Liang Kuan frowned slightly: "What kind of cooperation method?"

Duan Mingda said eloquently: "We can let Xingyi Video invest 20 million to re-model and make Qin Shimingyue Season 4 into an S-level masterpiece. Once it is completed, it will be broadcast on Youku and Xingyi Video together!"

Liang Kuan fell into deep thought: "In this way, Youku won't spend a penny, and you can get the fourth season of S-level production for free. You can also earn membership fees and advertising sponsorships, of course. But Xingyi Video probably won't agree! "

"Then give the copyright of the first three seasons to Xingyi Video. Is that almost enough?"

"Exchange the shoddy first three seasons for a brand new fourth season of an S-class masterpiece? That's okay. After all, the first three seasons have been aired for many years and are worthless!"

"Yeah, I guess Xuanji doesn't want to give up Qin Shimingyue's IP, so he won't refuse. Anyway, since Youku doesn't pay for it, we can pick up the fourth season for free!"

"Okay, I'll leave this to you."

Liang Kuan was in a great mood and couldn't give up a single cent. The fourth season of an S-level production for free was so satisfying just thinking about it!

These days, Youku has not been acquired by Alibaba, so it is naturally not as tough as Alibaba.

To put it bluntly, they don’t want to get into trouble with Xingyi Technology because of the Qin Shi Mingyue IP, so they might as well get some benefits for nothing and let it go as soon as it’s good.

And Liang Kuan has his own thoughts. Taking this opportunity, he can sell his personal relationship with Xingyi Technology and form a good relationship!

Once Youku collapses, whether Xingyi Video annexes Youku or he switches to Xingyi Video, there will be benefits!

He is a very smart person, so he will not narrow the path.

"Don't worry, President, I will contact Xingyi Technology right away."

Soon, Duan Mingda's phone number was dialed to Xingyi Technology.

Jian Ziyan received a report from her subordinates and approached Wang Yi:
"Chairman, Duan Mingda, Vice President of Youku, wants to talk to you about something and wants to give you a big gift."

"The vice president of Youku is giving me a gift?" Wang Yi smiled: "It seems to be about "Qin Shi Mingyue", okay, take it!"

"Yes!"

Soon, the call was answered: "Hello, Director Wang, I am Duan Mingda from Youku, I have long admired my name!"

"President Duan is too polite." Wang Yi said calmly.

"First of all, congratulations to Director Wang for acquiring Xuanji and acquiring a top animation production company." Duan Mingda said with a smile:

"However, the animation rights for the fourth season of "Qin Shi Mingyue" have been signed to Youku. This matter is more troublesome to deal with, so I want to give Director Wang a big gift to transfer the fourth season of "Qin Shi Mingyue" and the first three seasons. Give them all to Mr. Wang!”

"Give them all to me?" Wang Yi smiled. How can there be a free lunch in the world? "Tell me the conditions!"

"There are no conditions. The only condition is that after Xingyi Video completes the fourth season of "Qin Shi Mingyue", it will also be broadcast on Youku. One season for four seasons, it is a good deal, right?"

Wang Yi thought for a while: "Yes, but in the subsequent fifth and sixth seasons, we will not distribute them to Youku."

"That's natural."

None of the others have signed contracts, so naturally they are from Xuanji and Xingyi Video.

"Okay, let's arrange for someone to sign the contract."

"Dr. Wang is so happy!"

Wang Yi was very satisfied with this result.

The fourth season has 38 episodes, with a production cost of 1900 million, and is distributed to Youku for free, which is equivalent to giving Youku 950 million for free.

However, it is worthwhile to exchange 950 million for the first three and fourth seasons of Youku.

From then on, Xingyi Video can directly own all the copyrights of the first four seasons of Qin Shi Mingyue.

Of course, Wang Yi will definitely reset them all!

The first three seasons after the reset will naturally not be given to Youku.

By then, Youku will be the first three seasons of Chou + S-level fourth season, while Xingyi Video will be the first four seasons of all S-level remakes, followed by the fifth and sixth seasons...

How do users choose? Needless to say?

Youku probably wouldn’t have thought that Wang Yi would be willing to spend so much money to remake the first three seasons into an S-level remake!
After getting this done, Wang Yi immediately informed Xuanji of the news: "Mr. Shen, we have got the animation rights for the first four seasons of "Qin Shi Mingyue" back, and we can make the fourth season. In exchange, the fourth season will be distributed to Youku for free. !”

"Thank you, Director Wang, thank you!" Shen Qianshan was very excited.

As a famous work of mystery, they are quite fond of "Qin Shi Mingyue".

"Director Wang, I will arrange for people to continue working on the fourth season."

Wang Yi waved his hand: "There is no rush for the fourth season. You can do it in the second half of the year. In this way, I will invest 2500 million for you first and remake the first three seasons with a total of 62 episodes. The reset of the first three seasons will start in March. The broadcast will begin with two episodes a week and will be completed in November, and then the fourth season of "Qin Shi Mingyue" will be broadcast, one episode per week! The fourth season will cost 38 million!

"Thank you, Director Wang. In this way, the first three seasons of "Qin Shi Mingyue" can also be reborn and reach a new height!"

Shen Qianshan was very excited. Director Wang really meant what he said.

If I say remake them all, I will remake them all!
You're not following the wrong person!

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "Xuanji is currently focusing on the annual version of "Douluo Dalu" and "Qin Shi Mingyue". If I have the energy in the future, I will do "Zhu Xian". As for "Nine Songs of Heaven", I can put it to next year!"

"Okay, Director Wang, I will make arrangements now, recruit talents at the same time, and build Xuanji into the number one animation production company of Xingyi Technology. It will not be a problem to produce three annual animations simultaneously next year!"

"Very good!" Wang Yi nodded with satisfaction.

The mystery of the previous life was so awesome that I made three annual series "Douluo Dalu", "Senior Brother, Senior Brother" and "Swallowing Starry Sky" at the same time, and I still have enough energy to make another half-year series.

Now with the addition of Xuanji, it is only a matter of time before Xingyi Video goes one step further and surpasses Station B.

Why does Wang Yi attach so much importance to animation?
Because of the existence of annual and semi-annual memberships, 2D users will continue to sign up for memberships and sign up for annual memberships.

Don’t look at the people who watch anime now. They are all unemployed students. When they work in a few years, they will be the main consumer group.

Wang Yi started working on animation, which can be regarded as starting from students!
However, the mystery here is full of firepower. With three blockbuster movies, "Douluo Dalu", "Qin Shi Mingyue" and "Zhu Xian" in hand, Ruo Sen's pressure is great.

As Wang Yi expected, Ruo Sen came to the door soon.

Looking at Director Liu in front of him, Wang Yi laughed dumbly: "Director Liu, you are not going to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing!"

Director Liu sneered: "Director Wang, you are too biased. As soon as Xuanji joined, you gave them "Douluo Dalu" and "Zhu Xian". We Ruosen have been following you for a long time, so you have to keep your balance with a bowl of water!"

Wang Yi smiled: "I've been waiting for you for a long time. Everything has been prepared for you. I'll give you "Fights Break the Sphere", okay?"

"Fight to break the sky!" Director Liu said with joy, this is an IP that is not inferior to Douluo Continent!

It can even be called the current fantasy textbook!

"No problem, Director Wang, this is absolutely fine!"

Wang Yi continued: ""Fights Break the Sphere" will also be made into an adult series, with 52 episodes a year, giving you 2600 million. It is the same standard as Xuanji's "Douluo Dalu"."

Director Liu nodded and understood what Wang Yi meant.

The same big IP, the same production budget, and even the same release time!
This makes it clear that Ruosen and Xuanji are going to have a fight, internal competition!
There is no way, friends and businesses are not strong enough, even Bilibili is not a competitor, Xingyi Technology can only compete internally.

"Dr. Wang, don't worry, Ruo Sen is no weaker than others!"

"Very good!" Wang Yi nodded: "The two annual series of "Fights Break the Sphere" and "Xia Lan" are enough for you to keep busy at the moment. When these two movies are staged, it will be safe. If you have spare time, I will New anime for you!”

"Okay, thank you, Director Wang!"

"Also, after you make the Dou Po Cang Qiong modeling sketch, show it to me immediately! If there is no problem, we can proceed with the follow-up."

Wang Yi was very worried. The Dou Po model designed by Ruo Sen also stretched the hips like Dou Po Yi. It was really hard to watch.

"Yes!" Director Liu's mouth twitched, and Wang Yi killed Xia Lan's model hundreds of times!
The reasons are all the same, it’s too ugly!
In the end, several original painters redesigned it according to Wang Yi's requirements and made slight modifications.

Don't tell me, it's really N times better than what they did before. It's not even the aesthetic and style of the same era.

It seems that this time, Wang Yi will have to be beaten to death N times.

"It would be great if Director Wang could just draw the model and we would follow it!" Director Liu thought.

There is no way, their aesthetics and Wang Yi's aesthetics are different from Wang Yi's at least ten years, which is a big era.

On this point, anyone who has watched the first season of "Xia Lan" and "Dou Po" will know that modeling is not a work of the same era as the later "Xia Lan" movie and "Dou Po".

The animation matter was settled and Wang Yi ignored it. On the contrary, he went directly to the TV department!

As early as when it signed the TV factory contract with Daocheng, Xingyi Technology was recruiting TV hardware R&D engineers.

After these few months of recruitment, the Xingyi TV hardware R&D team has been basically perfected and can start work directly.

High-quality content + smart TV is Wang Yi’s new strategy!
Wang Yi called all the R&D elites together and held a meeting:
"The TV factory in Daocheng will be delivered in the second half of the year, so we have to finalize the TV research and development plan as soon as possible."

"Everyone is divided into three teams, and we will directly develop three TVs this time. Xingyi Smart TV X40, Xingyi Smart TV X50, and Xingyi Smart TV X60!"

"X40, 40 inches, 1080P resolution. A mid- to low-end TV processor is enough, 1G memory, 4G storage. It is positioned at the mid- to low-end and is popular in volume. Priced at 3999! Equipped with XUI intelligent operating system."

These are the current standard configurations of 40 inches.
