The Fantasy Entertainment Empire

After the meeting with President Ye, Shi Jiangxuan and Lei Xiajun returned to the company.

The office location of 'Dimension Media' is not the same as that of 'Dimension Entertainment', half of Jiangdong District is separated.

'Dimension Media', transformed from 'Xinmo Media', currently has more than one hundred employees, and it is not convenient to squeeze into the headquarters all at once. Moreover, there are not so many businesses between the two sides that require frequent meetings.

Ye Jiayi and Fan Zhe didn't want to let them come here, and Shi Jiangxuan and Lei Xiajun, the two heads of 'Dimension Media', didn't mention it, so the two branch offices were maintained like this.

Shi Jiangxuan originally belonged to 'Dimension Entertainment', and was recruited by Ye Jiayi as an executive in charge of operations. After completing the acquisition of 'Xinmo Media', he was transferred to 'Dimension Media' as the president. And Lei Xiajun was an old man from the former "Xinmo Media". After the company was acquired, he stayed on as the general manager of the new company.

Although the two didn't know each other in the past and belonged to two companies, but during this period of time, the two of them have been working together—mainly taking the blame together—and they have formed a certain "comrade friendship".

The so-called taking the blame together means that when the company held various summary meetings, others kept reporting the good news, and it was just the two of them, sitting in the corner of the conference room, cowering. When it was their turn to speak, they often used words such as 'flat', 'slight loss', 'strive to maintain', 'strive for better next month', anyway, they felt like they were losing face.

It is also the friendship accumulated in this way that makes the personal relationship between the two not bad.

Because of this, it was more casual for Lei Xiajun to talk to Shi Jiangxuan in private.

On the way back to the car, Lei Xiajun said to Shi Jiangxuan who was driving: "I am really convinced. I just sealed the ticket in front of Mr. Ye and issued a military order...you have a big heart."

Hearing Lei Xiajun's complaints, Shi Jiangxuan laughed twice and said, "You don't understand. Before such a major battle, can I still tell Mr. Ye that we have no confidence? We may Will it screw up? Surely you can't say that!"

"Then there's no need to issue a military order, right? Have you forgotten the two of us in the company, holding our heads and frowning together?"

"Anyway, I want to blow it up, so why not blow it up firmly!" After Shi Jiangxuan finished speaking, he added: "And...haven't we analyzed the reasons for the mediocre response of the released movies? In the final analysis It’s still because the quality of the film itself is not good enough. Now, "Hell Apartment 2" is different, this is a film made by the headquarters itself, the quality must be guaranteed, and the publicity budget is sufficient, I can’t think of how to lose!"

"Alas..." Lei Xiajun's expression didn't improve at all, "Old Shi, it's because of this that I'm worried. The previous ones were not done well. We can still say that the quality of the movie itself is not good. "Hell Apartment 2 》If we pounce, what should we say? Could it be that you told the boss that your movie didn’t do a good job?”

"Impossible, the company's self-produced movies cannot have quality problems."

"Are you so confident in the company's self-produced films?" Lei Xiajun expressed doubts.

"You haven't stayed in the headquarters, you don't know, anyway, I have confidence. If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself when the time comes."

Lei Xiajun rolled his eyes, tilted his head, and lay down on the parking space, unwilling to speak.

...

After seeing off Shi Lei and the others, Ye Jiayi turned around and got busy with another matter.

Overseas distribution of "Budo Grandmaster".

This drama was produced by the 'dimension platform' in China, and it has made a lot of money so far. Although for the time being, it seems that the income has not been as much as the direct sales of the drama, but it has raised its own content platform and laid the foundation for the future. No matter how you look at it, it is profitable.

Moreover, if the timeline is longer, according to the current sales momentum of "Martial Arts Master", no matter how you look at it, it will not lose money.

But the 'dimension platform' is overseas, so it doesn't have much influence.

The initial flow of "Dimension Platform" was brought about by the release of "Taiwu Painting Scroll 2". However, the overseas release of this game is all handed over to Activision, and has nothing to do with the 'dimension platform'.

It is also impossible for Ye Jiayi to be so inflated. It is wishful thinking to think that the 'dimension platform' can be sent abroad to become popular.

The most suitable way is to hand over the overseas copyright of "Martial Arts Master" to a local agent.

The so-called global market is not a whole, it should be viewed separately.

The Hong Kong and Taiwan markets are easy to say, and the influence of Dimension Entertainment's headquarters can be directly radiated. Especially in Hong Kong, TVB has already confirmed that it will broadcast the first part of "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts" on the TV station in January next year together with Shenghai Satellite TV in China. As for the broadcast rights in Taiwan, the negotiations have also been successfully completed.

And the market further outside needs to be further subdivided.

At present, Dimension Entertainment has established four branches in overseas markets.

The earliest establishment was 'Dimension Japan'. In the beginning, the purpose of this company was to import the animation produced by the company into Japan, a vast animation country. Their performance has always been pretty good, and the current development situation is also quite good. At present, the "Dimension Japan" led by Li Zerui is mainly responsible for the two major markets of Japan and South Korea.

In addition, there is another company called Dimension Asia. It bears the name of the whole of Asia, but in fact, "Dimension Asia" has basically no influence in Central Asia, West Asia, and the Arab region for some reason. The main market is still in Southeast Asia, such as Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and Myanmar. Recently, they are trying to open up the Indian market, but the results are very poor.

There are two other companies, one is "Dimension America", which is mainly responsible for North America and develops South America by the way, but the situation in South America is also more complicated.

The latest establishment is 'Dimension Europe', which is responsible for the European market, and by the way, the African market. However, this is mostly in name only. After all, the other three can still be regarded as branches, and the "Dimension Europe" established in London is basically an office.

But despite this, Dimension Entertainment has begun to try to make a global layout. "Martial Arts Master" can be regarded as an attempt by them to carry out global distribution on their own.

The result seems to be pretty good so far, especially in Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia, where Dimension Entertainment has a relatively large influence and is relatively similar to the Chinese cultural circle, "Budao Grandmaster" sold at a good price. As for North America and Europe, the situation is not particularly good, but they are sold anyway.

Calculated in this way, "Martial Arts Master" probably brought Dimension Entertainment more than 45 million US dollars in revenue in the entire overseas market including Hong Kong and Taiwan, which is almost 300 million yuan.

At the same time, the copyright of domestic TV dramas has also been sold for 250 million yuan - the TV drama version will not be released until one month after the online version is finished, so the price will naturally be affected to a certain extent.

"Martial Arts Master" can't be simulcast on the Internet. If you can watch TV, it will greatly affect online payment.

As for the loss of paying users when it starts broadcasting on TV, after research by the marketing department, the problem is not too big.

After all, the TV drama version was launched three months later than the online version, and while watching TV, one had to watch the TV regularly, so if something happened to miss an episode one day, there was no place to make it up. You also have to endure commercial breaks, and the movie-watching experience will definitely be different.

Moreover, when the TV version goes online, the online version will also give some discounts and so on. There are certain discounts, and you can finish watching the show in one go when you watch it online, maybe it may attract some users who are attracted by the TV station to enter the 'dimension platform'.

As for the ones that don't cost money to die... It doesn't matter if there is a TV series version or not, people are unlikely to spend money to watch it.
