Chapter 699: Negotiation
Shen Xin is open to whether orochi agrees.
He didn't want "DN" to be neglected by readers because of the late-night file. What's more, compared with traditional TV broadcasting, online video also has its natural advantages, that is, after the video is uploaded, it can be shown online all the time, without Like a TV station, if you want to see animation again, you have to wait for the TV station to rebroadcast it.
There will be a large number of new shows coming out every month, and some TV stations are already full of shows, and the comics rebroadcasted must be suitable for all ages. From this point of view, "DN" is not suitable.
Some video sites have already begun to cooperate with animation companies, and the fees they give to animation companies are even higher than those of TV stations, especially for some exclusive masterpieces, the prices are even more exaggerated.
However, major comic magazines like "ComicFuture" still think that the signature comics are best shown on TV stations. Although the online platform has a larger audience, compared with TV stations, there are still differences in specifications.
Many people only know about comics by watching TV; for cartoonists, the fact that animation can be recorded on TV is a proof of their own strength, but Shen Xin does not need these proofs.
In fact, the model of "Steel Refining" in Omi is to sell the copyright of the animation to video websites. Similarly, in China, after the animation of "Steel Refining" is broadcast on TV stations, it is also broadcast on video websites. The readers' response is good. The more critical point is that the copyright income from Huaxia and Omi alone has allowed Orochi to earn back half of the cost, which many people did not expect.
Tomita lunged and nodded.
Animation, in the final analysis, is also a commercial creation, and its main purpose must be profit.
District 11 is okay, but they really don’t have connections in Huaxia. They relied on "ComicFuture" before, but this time I’m afraid it didn’t go so smoothly. It’s better to sell it directly to an animation video website—Huaxia also buys animations from District 11 every year, so, orochi is also associated with several video sites.
"If it premieres on a video website, the disc may not be sold." Tomita lunged and said with a sigh.
The unit price of a DVD is almost 300 yuan, and a BD is also 600 yuan.
If readers can see the video from the website, a large part of readers may not buy CDs, which is also a loss for orochi.
"BD should still have a certain market." After hearing the translation, Wang Wenhong coughed lightly, "BD has collection value, so some viewers will choose to buy BD. Of course, it depends on the market's reaction—in fact, as long as Selling the video to a video website should be able to recover the cost. Even if it is screened on the website, "DN" is also the premiere, and the price should be better."
"It is indeed possible to talk about it." Tomita bowed his head and nodded, while thinking about the follow-up process in his mind.
Many times, when comics are turned into animations, the production company will bring in other companies to form a committee, share the production costs equally, and share related copyrights equally, such as games, animations, music, toys, etc., but Shen Xin split the copyright of "DN" Well, film and television and game copyrights are not included in this cooperation, and the peripherals of "DN" are not of much value, so the organizing committee's model is definitely not good, and they can only find investors by themselves.
On the one hand, it is a TV station, and on the other hand, it is a video website. These two must be firmly grasped.
"By the way, Mr. Shen, how long is "DN"...? Because I'm not sure whether it will be produced every year or half a year? It will affect our planning." Shoji Uno asked.
"how long?"
Shen Xin frowned slightly, and knocked on the table.
As of L's death, "DN" has a total of 58 episodes. Considering that this comic has a lot of lines, it should be about half a year.
"I can't give you a definite answer right now, but the entire manga won't be too long. Wait until the Chinese New Year...the Chinese New Year should be confirmed."
"Chinese New Year?" The muscles on the corner of Shoji Uno's mouth twitched.
"Mr. Shen, how many months are there before Chinese New Year?"
"However, "DN" only serialized 6 episodes." Shen Xin smiled wryly.
Shoji Uno sighed.
This is true, I am too impatient.
"But... if you are negotiating with a TV station or a website, you need to have an approximate duration, right?"
"In that case..." Shen Xin rubbed her chin, "In two days, I'll explain the plot and give you an answer then."
Even if he knows well that "DN" will only be produced for half a year at most, but if he speaks too directly and the final length is similar, it will definitely make people suspicious.
"Alright. Then we'll wait for your news."
Tomita Kungbu and Shoji Uno stood up, bowed deeply to Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong, and then left the studio first.
"Huh—so tired!"
After seeing off the three of them, Wang Wenhong sat on the sofa on the first floor, while Shen Xin took out a can of energy drink from the refrigerator and threw it to Wang Wenhong, and Shen Xin also took a can of Coke.
"Teacher, are you done?" Liu Ruoxing asked curiously.
Gao Hang glanced at Shen Xin, seeing that there was no smile on his face, he knew it was not going well, so he knocked on the table and winked at Liu Ruoxing.
Liu Ruoxing stuck out her tongue, and quickly stopped speaking.
"Actually, it's nothing. Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with this cooperation. Some details need to be carefully considered." Shen Xin took a sip of Coca-Cola, "I may have to trouble Brother Wang for a while."
"No way, who asked me to eat this bowl of rice?" Wang Wenhong smiled wryly.
There is nothing wrong with Orochi making animations, what needs to be solved now is the next player.
They don't know people from the TV station, and they don't know people from the website, so if the animation is produced, "who to sell it to" becomes a problem.
Of course, for now, selling to video sites has the biggest profit, and their goal is to test out the tone of these sites, and pave the way for the future - apart from "DN", Shen Xin will also draw other comics in the future.
This time, I will use "DN" to explore the way and communicate with major websites. If there is similar cooperation, there will be a few more paths to choose from.
Before doing these things well, the copyright income of "DN" is actually a trivial matter, at most it is to earn more or less.
This time, he must succeed in one fell swoop, otherwise, he will still not be able to escape the shackles of magazines or other platforms in the future.
When the others heard Shen Xin saying that there was nothing wrong, they also felt a little relieved.
They follow Shen Xin now, and of course hope that Shen Xin will be better, especially, they are also very comfortable staying here, not only the salary is high, but the bonus is also very considerable.
Shen Xin walked to Wang Wenhong's side, patted Wang Wenhong's shoulder lightly, and then walked upstairs slowly.
Wang Wenhong held the can and fell into deep thought.
