Chapter 227: 2.2 billion

"Sales of 30 million..."

"Is this too scary?"

"Is it going to God for Weidu Entertainment? How much does it cost?"

"Sales are almost 10 billion yuan, right?"

...

Discussions about the sales results of "Taiwu 2" are everywhere in major media and online forums. There is no doubt that people are surprised by this.

Almost no one could have thought that a domestic stand-alone game could really be bought to this level.

What about the promised stand-alone machine dead?

Of course, after all, no matter how much money it sells in "Taiwu 2", it is still not as good as pesticides. Their revenue can reach 30 to 40 billion yuan a year, and it is calculated to be 100 million yuan a day. According to some people, this is more profitable than drugs.

But then again, if you want to sell pesticides, it is not enough to do a good job of the game. A mobile game that is popular based on social interaction is a victory in marketing, a victory in social interaction, not a game.

But "Taiwu 2" is a serious victory in the game.

The promotion and distribution budget invested by "Taiwu 2" is actually very high. Activision's marketing spending over 100 million yuan in overseas markets will be left aside for the time being. In fact, there are quite a few promotion and distribution costs invested by Weidu Entertainment in China.

Although most of the discussion is spontaneous by players and gamers, the guidance and rise of these discussions are inseparable from the promotional investment of Didu Entertainment.

But no matter what, the success of "Taiwu 2" is based on the absolutely excellent game quality.

The same is true in social evaluation.

Various social news about pesticides, including mainstream reviews, are not friendly to this game. Of course, there are many sayings about "protecting children" and are actually blackmailed by friendly competitors with red-eye disease. But overall, it has low comments on mainstream media, which is a fact.

The treatment of "Taiwu 2" is completely different.

In somehu, on Douban, and on major game forums, "Taiwu 2" received almost all the praises. And when you jump out of the game circle, serious official media like News Broadcast have given Taiwu the evaluation of "the best domestic game works and the benchmark for the export of Chinese culture".

Such evaluations are almost equivalent to the official media giving a qualitative view.

Originally, there were some people who secretly wanted to blackmail "Dimensional Entertainment" and blackmail "Taiwu Painting Scroll". The technique was nothing more than "children playing games to delay learning", "campus violence is actually related to this game", and so on, but now they are all gone - it's still dark!

It is precisely at this point that "Taiwu Painting Scroll 2" has achieved absolute success on any level.

...

After the celebration banquet for "Taiwo 2", Fan Zhe basically ended his other job.

Post-production of "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts".

Now, no one will question the strength of Weidu Entertainment's TV series projects. In fact, before the production of this drama was completed, major platforms surrounded them like sharks smelling blood.

In August, when the filming of "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts" was completed, negotiations on this work had already begun.

But this negotiation has been quite a bit twists and turns.

Weidu Entertainment changed its attitude in "Fantasy Three Kingdoms" and no longer made any competitive quotations. It directly set a fixed price - the first part of "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts", the content of the 73th episode, the price was 1 billion yuan, and it also promised to give the lower part priority to purchase, the content of the 72th episode, the starting price was 1.2 billion yuan.

This price... makes major platforms very panic.

"The Grandmaster of Martial Arts" is a drama, two filmed in a row in one go. This is not a secret in the industry. It is understandable that it is divided into two movies and sold for two copies.

But after counting this, the entire cost of purchasing this drama reached 2.2 billion yuan, which is a bit terrifying.

Of course, in the past few years, some popular dramas signed at a price of about one billion, but this series was divided into two, and it was actually sold for 2.2 billion?

Too exaggerated, rob money?

Weidu Entertainment said: It’s just grabbing money.

Many video websites that are quite interested in this work were frightened when facing this price.

However, no one can be willing to lose such a work.

They tried to contact the business department of "Dimension Entertainment" to try to be able to bargain.

However, the attitude of "Dimension Entertainment" is very firm: the price is here, there is no need to talk about it.

All the companies have temporarily stopped.

...

"What do you say over the Edge video?"

The cigarettes in Song Wenjie's mouth were one after another.

You can't smoke in the office. He is now at the door of the company downstairs. The one who follows him is his confidant subordinate.

"According to the information we have received now, Edge was also scared by this price."

"What about the other ones?"

"It's all the same, 2.2 billion... Weidu Entertainment really dares to speak."

"Oh..." Song Wenjie sighed.

This price puts too much pressure on him.

According to his own ideas, the works produced by Weidu Entertainment will be taken down no matter what. The bosses at the upper level of the company also agree with his judgment.

Let’s not talk about how reliable the title of Weidu Entertainment is. Just looking at the work "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts", it is adapted from popular novels. Secondly, after this work is exposed to the news of the adaptation of the film and television drama, the expectations of all parties are quite high.

As long as the quality is up to standard, this is almost a drama that will not fail, and it is highly likely to become popular.

But, 2.2 billion...this is too expensive.

How many Qing Palace dramas are this enough to buy?

Is Dimension Entertainment so big?

High cost investment represents huge risks. At the same time, such a large cost also means that the rate of return has been compressed to a very low level.

If you really spend such a high price to buy a drama, you will fail and lose blood, or even lose a bit of a bone. Although the Penguin family has money and the money is blown by strong winds, the 2.2 billion figure is all turned into cash, and the strong winds will have to blow for a long time!

The Penguin family hesitated.

Song Wenjie himself was also very hesitant.

No matter how confident he is in Weidu Entertainment, he is just a senior worker here, not a real boss. He can't convince the boss to earn "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts" at such a high price, and he can really make money.

You know, if you buy "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts", it is definitely not enough to lose money. If you invest 2.2 billion yuan, you can collect interest in the bank, and you can also collect 100 or 200 million yuan a year. If you don't lose money, you will lose money by blood.

What's more, if you really lose...

There is a high probability that my future will be compensated together.
