After a series of auditions, Peng Yuchang was chosen as the male lead.

In addition to his acting skills, his appearance is the most suitable for playing an ordinary young man in the company.

The villain, the boss of IOI, was chosen by Sha Yi.

Not to mention that Sha Yi, who has lost weight, looks like an evil capitalist in a suit and a slicked back hair.

There were no other suitable actors in the company.

Except for the male and female protagonists, one of the five main characters was given to Warner and the other to Dongbao.

Only one child actor, Zhou Jiazheng, was left.

There were no child actors in the company, so they had to find them from outside.

Three days later, an audition for external actors was held in Fanxing.

The last few main actors were determined.

The last child actor in the five-person group was chosen by Han Haolin, who had worked with him before.

This character is a Chinese in the original version, but the character in the game is a ninja.

In Cao An’s case, the character of the child in the game is an ancient costume assassin.

Moreau, the guide of the protagonist group and one of the founders of Oasis, plays the role of the curator in the game.

Cao An invited Li Xuejian to play the role.

The last important role is the creator of Oasis. Cao An finally decided that Chen Daoming would play the challenge initiator in the game.

Not long after the domestic actor auditions ended, Warner and Toho received the actor selection.

The male protagonist, the game friend Hailun, was played by Elle Fanning.

Her more impressive roles are Princess Aurora in “Maleficent” and Catherine in “Catherine the Great”.

Another character, Toshiro, was played by Yoshizawa Ryo.

He is not well-known in China, but he is quite famous in Xiaori.

He has appeared in “Kamen Rider” and the live-action version of “The Disaster of Saiki K.”.

Although the actors have been selected, there is still some time before the start of filming.

Cao An set the start time after the Spring Festival.

There is still more than a month before the start of filming, which does not mean that Cao An can just ignore this project.

The project “Ready Player One” is strongly related to video games.

In order to cater to audiences of all ages, there must be no shortage of game Easter eggs.

But Fanxing has too few games of its own, so Cao An is ready to cooperate with game manufacturers around the world.

It would be great if they are willing to authorize Fanxing, but they will not force it if they are not willing.

Cao An is very satisfied to get the authorization of more than a dozen well-known game characters.

For foreign game companies, Fanxing asked Warner to help contact them, and Fanxing had to do it himself for domestic ones.

When it comes to domestic games, Tencent and Tencent are naturally unavoidable.

So Cao An found Xiao Ma Ge for a meal.

There are quite a lot of domestic and foreign game companies under Penguin, and it is too troublesome to talk to them one by one, so he went directly to the boss.

Xiao Ma Ge was confused when he heard that Cao An wanted to treat him to a meal.

Although Fanxing and Penguin have cooperated, the bosses of the two companies do not have any intersection.

Xiao Ma Ge thought about it and agreed to the invitation.

He really wanted to get to know Cao An.

During the dinner, Xiao Ma Ge was surprised after listening to Cao An’s introduction to “Ready Player One”.

He had never expected that Cao An would actually make such a movie.

“Brother Cao’s project is a bit big. I wonder if Penguin can participate?”

“Of course, Fanxing welcomes every company that sincerely cooperates.”

After determining the basis for cooperation, the two sides discussed the specific agreement.

Finally, Xiao Ma Ge agreed to license all game IPs under Penguin to Fanxing.

Fanxing agreed that Penguin would participate in the investment of “Ready Player One”.

“Ready Player One” is Fanxing’s key project, and Fanxing’s production budget for this movie is 1 billion yuan.

The two sides agreed that Penguin would invest 100 million yuan and license all its game IPs plus domestic publicity to obtain a 10% share of the movie “Ready Player One”.

Penguin has always wanted to get involved in the film industry, but it does not have any successful products.

Xiao Ma Ge is still very happy to be able to participate in Fanxing’s flagship project this time.

After talking with Xiao Ma Ge, Cao An found Ding Sanshi from Zhuchang again.

Ding Sanshi was very interested in Cao An’s movie, especially after hearing that Penguin had entered the market.

In the end, Wangyi invested 50 million yuan plus the license of its game IP, and its own platform promotion to win 5% of the share of “Ready Player One”.

Although other companies were interested in Cao An’s movie, Fanxing did not give a share, but directly talked about the license.

In the end, it cost more than 15 million to almost win all the well-known domestic game IPs.

The licensing contracts signed with these companies are not only for the movie project “Ready Player One”, but also for the game project “Oasis”.

That is to say, their game images can also be used in Oasis.

The situation abroad is similar.

Most gamesAll companies are willing to license Fanxing, after all, Fanxing is very capable, and the project of “Ready Player One” is not simple at first glance.

Not only can you make money, but you can also show your face in front of the global audience. How can you miss such a good thing?

Among them, Microsoft also won 10% of the share of “Ready Player One” by licensing and investing 100 million.

In addition to the game copyright, Fanxing also purchased licenses for many classic film and television characters.

Most companies are willing to cooperate with Fanxing, but Disney directly refused.

Cao An had expected this result, and agreed to find Disney because of sending an email.

If Disney is willing, Cao An doesn’t mind the cooperation between the two.

But the other party is unwilling, so forget it.

This series of licensing work finally ended the negotiations on December 23 under the activation of Cao An’s face fruit ability.

Even if there are fish that slip through the net, Fanxing will not continue to talk.

After all the contracts were signed, Fanxing announced the basic information of “Ready Player One” to the outside world on December 24.
