Chapter 104 Radio Drama

"What do you need the magazine to do for Y's?" Song Tae asked.

"Let's not talk about the second promotion, because I'm not sure whether I can enter the second stage of the comic festival. As for the first promotion, my request is not too difficult. "Y's" will release a radio drama." Shen Xin said.

"Radio drama?"

The other four were taken aback, they didn't expect Shen Xin to use radio dramas to promote "Y's".

Radio dramas are also called radio dramas or audio dramas. As the name suggests, audio-based dramas are somewhat similar to audio novels, but there are certain differences from audio novels.

First of all, radio dramas are mainly dialogues, and different characters are dubbed by different people. If you want to achieve the best effect, you need to invite professional voice actors. In addition, there are also sound effects. It is roughly equivalent to a series or animation where the screen cannot be seen.

Audiobooks, on the other hand, are more narrated, and, usually, only read by one person.

Secondly, the radio drama will modify the original work, and may also add new plots, while the audio novel is more faithful to the original work, and sometimes even typos will be read out.

Yan Fei pondered for a while, and immediately understood Shen Xin's thoughts.

Romance comics like "Y's" are quite suitable for launching radio dramas. As long as the voice actor has a certain strength, the emotions between the hero and heroine can be conveyed through voice.

In the same way, some suspense comics can also choose radio dramas, especially in the middle of the night, with weird background sounds, so that the audience can experience the immersive feeling.

And hot-blooded comics like "Hunting Abyss" are not suitable, because many fighting scenes and the appearance of monsters are hard to imagine just by listening to the sound, which is not as direct as animation.

In addition, radio dramas do not need to produce pictures, the cost is lower than that of animation, and the production cycle is relatively short.

As a price, the publicity effect of radio dramas is far inferior to that of animation.

It should be a helpless move for Shen Xin to make such a choice.

"The magazine office can fully cooperate." Song Tai nodded.

It was also rare for Song Ren not to object, but he looked at Shen Xin with a very strange expression - is this guy stupid? How much does it cost to make a radio play?

"Mr. President, I haven't finished my words yet." Shen Xin waved her hands repeatedly.

"Didn't you say that the radio drama is the first promotion you asked for?" Song Ren asked in surprise, ignoring Song Tai's previous warning.

"That's right, but I have some requirements for the production of radio dramas." Shen Xin looked innocent.

Song Ren looked at Shen Xin patiently, feeling a little upset.

"Then what is your request?" Song Tai asked.

"First of all, the dubbing actor needs to find a well-known voice actor, especially Iori's dubbing, which must be the hottest in recent months. Secondly, although "Y's" has been published in two volumes, the length is still too short. I hope the magazine can Find a writer and write some original stories. Of course, it’s better to have a certain reputation.”

"Hey, Teacher Shen, have you considered how much it will cost to hire the most popular voice actors and well-known writers?" Song Ren couldn't help knocking on the table.

"This is not something I've considered. I only know that this condition does not affect the normal development of the magazine. Right, president?" Shen Xin asked Song Tai.

Song Tai stroked his beard stubble with his left hand and tapped his index finger on the table. After thinking for two or three minutes, he nodded and said: "As the signature cartoon of "New World", I am qualified to make these requests, and I will try my best to find them."

Yan Fei glanced at Shen Xin, but found that Shen Xin was smiling. Based on what she knew about Shen Xin, he should have something to say.

"Mr. Shen, you shouldn't have asked for it, right?" Song Tai looked solemn.

Shen Xin rubbed her hands together, feeling a little embarrassed, "Actually... I still have a small request."

"Huh?" Song Tai's face tightened, why is there still?

"Ahem... Teacher Shen,

Next time, please finish your sentence at once. "

"I wanted to say it too, but wasn't I interrupted by the president's assistant just now?" Shen Xin explained.

"you……"

Song Ren patted the table, and then saw Song Tai's gaze, so he could only endure it.

"I hope the radio drama of "Y's" will be released digitally and provide free download. No physical version."

"How is it possible? Do you want publishers and magazines to drink Northwest Wind? It's all free? How do we make money?" Song Ren slapped the table and stood up, his face flushed.

The editor-in-chief also quickly stood up, "Song Shao calm down, it's not impossible to talk about these things."

"Editor-in-chief, I still think the digital version is better." Shen Xin said.

"Ms. Shen, provide free downloads. There must be no company willing to accept this order. It will really lose money if you do so." The editor-in-chief frowned. It was the first time he met Shen Xin today, and only then did he realize that Shen Xin's temper was so stubborn.

"That's right, it must be lost. The sales of "Y's" will also be greatly reduced." Song Ren also took the opportunity to say.

Yan Fei rubbed her forehead, Shen Xin's condition was bolder than she thought, would the president really agree?

The conference room fell into silence, and everyone's eyes were on Song Tai.

Song Tai closed his eyes, crossed his fingers in front of him, and meditated for a long time.

Song Ren tapped the table with his index finger, a little impatient, and his brows gradually knit together.

After about five or six minutes, Song Tai opened his eyes, and his eyes fell on Shen Xin.

"I know. However, I must decide in what form the produced radio drama will be downloaded for free."

"Dad, how can you agree? It will cost a lot of money?" Song Ren scratched his head anxiously.

"Shut up. Just use your ears to listen carefully." Song Tai glared at Song Ren, and then looked at Shen Xin.

Shen Xin lowered her head and pondered for a long time, then finally nodded, "I see. Then I will leave it to the president."

"Yeah. I'll talk about the voice actor and author in person. Also, before October, I'll be in charge of the booklet of "Y's". Mr. Shen, is this okay?" Song Tai asked Shen Xin.

"President, please. If "Y's" can enter the second stage, I hope to discuss the promotion of "Y's" from July to October before June." Shen Xin said.

"I look forward to your better results." Song Tai stood up and shook hands with Shen Xin.

The first meeting between the two of them ended like this.

After leaving the conference room, Shen Xin let out a long breath. After talking so much just now, he was actually very nervous.

Before crossing, he would chat with the editor in charge of the website at most, and gossip. Like today, this is the first time that I have a direct interview with the head of a company. The result was good, meeting his best expectations.

"How did you come up with the radio drama?" Yan Fei whispered when she was more than ten meters away from the conference room.

""Y's" was very limited, so I had to find another way. Radio dramas are a better entry point." Shen Xin said.

"The other way you mentioned is the radio drama?" the editor-in-chief asked.

Shen Xin smiled without saying a word.

"Hey, Shen Xin, your main goals are voice actors and writers, right?" Yan Fei clapped her hands lightly, thinking of the key point, "The better the voice, the more famous the writer, the more popular the writer is. The greater the publicity effect, you want to attract their fans to "Y's."

"That's right." Shen Xin nodded slightly, this is also a different kind of "drainage".
