The superstar starts from the creation camp

Chapter 295 Animation Peripherals.

Li Mu first took everyone to visit the production room of "A Chinese Journey to the West". After watching some specially displayed animation clips, everyone also showed great interest in this animation movie. However, some second-tier video websites also know that this huge amount The movie they invested in was something they couldn't get their hands on, and they all agreed silently.

"As expected of Mr. Li, I'm afraid most people wouldn't dare to think about such a big deal!" The person in charge of Penguin Video is also an old acquaintance of Li Mu's. After dealing with him for a long time, he naturally saw through his purpose at a glance.

Li Mu shrugged: "Some things must be done by someone."

After the visit, a group of people came to the meeting room. After an hour of negotiation, Penguin Video got the exclusive right to broadcast the second season of "Shook and Beta". The price is 20 yuan per episode, which is actually quite good. You must know that "Shushan Xianmolu" was only 30 an episode, but the cost of 2D and 3D is very different.

Seeing that "Shook and Beta" became more and more popular, some imitation dolls began to become popular in the market, but most of them were roadside stalls, and Li Mu was pestered when he took his daughter out for a walk Bought one, it is a bit dumbfounding.

But this reminded Li Mu that in the United States, in fact, simply doing animation is often not profitable, but various animation peripherals can make a lot of money, and toys account for the bulk of the income.

Speaking of which, Huaxia’s copyright issue has not been resolved before, so it is basically whimsical to make money from animation peripherals.

Even the Fuwa, the mascot of the Olympic Games back then, were pirated dolls all over the street, so you know how rampant the piracy was at that time.

However, with the increasingly perfect market supervision, making peripheral toys is definitely a profitable business, but the major animation manufacturers are afraid of being pirated, so they subconsciously missed this link.

Li Mu originally had no idea of ​​doing business, so he asked the animation workshop to directly find a toy manufacturer to cooperate with, but it turned out that most of the domestic toy manufacturers are engaged in toy OEM, and they have no idea of ​​making or designing toys at all. Don't talk about spending money to buy copyright.

Reluctantly, Li Mu had no choice but to buy a toy factory in Pudong New Area. The design of toys is not difficult. An artist can be drawn from the animation workshop to design. The factory itself has masters in pattern making and typesetting, so transformation is not a problem.

After two months of running-in, the first batch of "Shook and Beta" toys were finally officially interviewed. Coincidentally, they also caught up with the second season of the broadcast. The genuine toys were welcomed by parents and children once they came out. Although the price is more expensive than the roadside stalls, the quality is still guaranteed.

Most of the roadside stalls are low-quality toys produced by some small workshops. Some plush toys are stuffed with low-quality cotton or even moldy waste cotton. Some children have allergic reactions after buying them home.

There are also some decorations such as eyes on the dolls, which are also very low-quality. They basically fall off with one buckle, and they are scrapped after playing with children in less than two days. It is better to buy a genuine one to save trouble.

Moreover, the genuine ones are not comparable to the pirated ones in terms of composition, color palette, and fabrics. Soon, the first batch of toys were sold out after the market, so I had to work overtime to place additional orders.

Of course, these are still relatively low-end products. After acquiring the toy factory, the animation workshop can form a complete industrial chain with the toy factory, such as some figures and dolls of "Shushan Xianmolu", as well as cosplay clothes and wigs. , accessories, are also in the midst of intensive research and development.

Li Mu couldn't help being a little dazed, didn't he agree to stay at home and take care of the children?How do you feel that you have more industries under your hands?And it's an industry.

Of course, for Li Mu's acquisition of the toy factory, the two little guys in the family are very happy. For example, Li Mu would often take some samples from the toy factory as gifts for the two little guys.

Have you ever seen Shu Ke who is as tall as one person and flies a plane?Is the beta that can drive the tank remotely delicious?These toys, which were not on the market at all, instantly made the two little guys "stars" in the community.

But the other little friends are greedy. These children are masters who are not short of money. Parents are also responsive to their children. In the past, they have no shortage of any kind of toys, but this time the toys are not on the market at all. Money can't buy it, what should I do?
The parents were so upset that they could only discuss with Li Mu whether they could provide a special batch of similar toys first.

After the second season of "Shook and Beta" ended, Li Mu discovered that in just one month, he had earned back all the 800 million he had invested in buying the toy factory.

In fact, it's not too much to think about. After all, it doesn't include the authorization fee of "Shook and Beta". If this fee is included, it doesn't make too much money.

I have to say that the real industry is indeed becoming more and more difficult to do now!
For Li Ruilan and Li Ruilan, listening to their father telling stories every night has become the thing they look forward to most in a day. In order to avoid aesthetic fatigue, Li Mu also added many new characters to the story. Of course, most of these characters are some cartoons. Animal images, such as the family dog ​​"Jelly" became a dog captain, leading Shuke and Beta across the North Pacific successfully.

However, the life of "Jelly" has been a bit difficult since then. The two little guys will always suffer from secondary attacks from time to time, dragging "Jelly" to let him sail, and shouting in their mouths: "Captain Jelly, hurry up, it's time to go!" Set sail, our goal is the sea of ​​stars!"

Li Mu rubbed his forehead for a while, the two little guys are already two and a half years old, and they are getting more and more noisy.

Fortunately, "Jelly" has a good temper, although he is often thrown into the sky by the two little guys, but he also takes care of them with love, especially when he goes out, and even acts like a guide dog.

"Hey, sorry to see you, here comes the jelly, eat more." Seeing this, Wang Ziwen naturally felt sorry for this little guy.

Pets and children are always the best combination in this world. Of course, the premise is that the parents must teach them well, otherwise it will be the pets who will suffer. After all, bear children are terrifying creatures that everyone fears.

Li Mu touched the back of "Jelly" and watched it eat big chunks. He couldn't help thinking that when it just arrived home, it was only so small. After all, it has been five years since "Jelly" was brought back by Li Mu. It is a handsome adult Shiba Inu.

Just when Li Mu's thoughts were wandering, the phone rang suddenly, and it kept ringing several times before Li Mu came back to his senses, took a look to show it, and was a little surprised.

"Hey, Mr. He, I was just recalling the past when I brought Jelly back from the mushroom house. Why did I invite you here?"

Teacher He rolled his eyes when he heard this, what is this called?invite?Is this a good word?

　Cough cough, the duck egg is back, and the three shifts will resume from today.
