Chapter 684
"I never thought about making an anime movie."

Gu Hongye said helplessly, "I think it's very good to be able to do a good job in cartoons."

Fang Jiming smiled and said, "That's right, the most basic position must be done first."

"By the way, we have also contacted the copyright for the comics on the Neon side, and we can make comic books, but the copyright fee is too expensive." Gu Hongye said with a wry smile, "If we go to print it, we probably won't be able to get it back. .”

Fang Jiming thought for a while and said, "Then don't do it."

"Ah?" Gu Hongye was taken aback for a moment, he thought that Fang Jiming said that he didn't care whether he lost money or not, and he still wanted to occupy the market.Never expected that Fang Jiming would say no need to do it!

"Why do you lose money in business?" Fang Jiming shook his head and said, "The copyright fee is so expensive, it's better not to do it. Dongfang Chinese website also published the novel, but since the copyright belongs to us , the price can be lower, and you can still make money. Even so, you still can’t do piracy. You still have to pay high royalties, who will lose if you don’t lose?”

Gu Hongye thought for a while, sighed, and said, "That's true. It's not easy to make a physical book. The pirated version can be sold for ten or eight yuan, and we will lose money if we sell it for 20 yuan." Besides, I see that there are good original comics on Bilibili, and "A囧" is not bad!" Fang Jiming said that "A囧" is similar to the "A囧" he read in his previous life. Fang Jiming set up the characters, and then drew campus funny cartoons.

Needless to say, such cartoons are sure to be hugely popular.

Gu Hongye was taken aback: "Can it be published?"

"Of course, the copyright is with us. If the price is lower and the printing is thinner, wouldn't it be profitable!"

Fang Jiming said, this is nothing. Publishing physical books will become more and more difficult, unless you are in the teaching aid market.Because in the future, except for teaching supplementary books, which are hard to be pirated, other books will be pirated.In addition, the copyright fees of genuine books are too expensive, and the price of books is too high, so there is not much competitiveness at all.

Instead of this, it is better to get the copyright yourself, set a lower price, and create a thinner series of books, so that the profits are small and the sales are high.In fact, I made a lot of money in this way. For a 64-format comic book with only a hundred pages, the printing fee can be reduced a lot!Not to mention the size of the paper, the cost will naturally drop.

"Then it's decided like this. Not only "A囧", but also other popular comics can also be published." Gu Hongye thought for a while, although this publishing industry does not make much money, it is still profitable anyway!
Fang Jiming smiled and said, "How is the peripheral operation going? I asked you to launch an animation mall, so why didn't you do it?"

"Debugged at the end."

Gu Hongye also knows that animation peripherals are very profitable.

"I have recently arranged a 'Shunfeng' express with Pan Rui and Wang Li, which can definitely give you a price of six yuan and two kilograms, and help this animation mall to make a profit." Fang Jiming knows that the animation mall wants to make it a reality. Big e-commerce is still a bit difficult.But selling comic books, figurines, dolls, and other commodities should not be too simple.

Two-dimensional fans are very willing to spend money.

Fang Jiming remembers most that in his previous life, when he was in school, a classmate was crazy about Gundam, and went to Neon to buy a Gundam for more than 3000 yuan.You know, that was 3000 yuan in the [-]s, which is not a small amount.It can be seen that animation peripherals are indeed very profitable, and may become another income pillar of Bilibili.

After all, the penguin dolls, penguin cultural shirts, and even Doudizhu keychains sold by Feixun are crazy, not to mention the animation products!

Gu Hongye sighed, and said, "Fortunately, you are here, otherwise, I don't know what a comic website can do for profit besides comics."

Fang Jiming thought for a while and said, "The rest are incidental. The most important thing for Bilibili is to make the comics well."

"Well, I know that. By the way, it seems that we also have competitors. Recently, I discovered that there is an animation website called "Painting Fan" that has completely copied our business model." Gu Hongye came here today, probably Also for this matter.

Fang Jiming smiled and said: "Isn't it normal to have competitors? Although we pioneered the business model, we can't own it alone. It's like Dongfang Chinese Network, and I don't know how many Chinese websites have followed suit. Get up, but Dongfang Chinese.com is not the best yet? Everyone recognizes us, and users haven’t lost, so what are you afraid of?”

Gu Hongye smiled wryly and said, "I'm afraid that the other party will get the financing before us, and then compete to burn money. We can't compete."

"As a leader in the industry, Bilibili has not yet received financing, so why does the other party get financing?" Fang Jiming raised this soul torture.

When Gu Hongye thought about it, it seemed to be the same reason: "So, don't worry about the other party?"

"No, peers need attention, but don't be led astray by peers. Although it is said that if you want to beat us, you must be like us. However, just imitating us will not work." Fang Jiming is very confident, Because Bilibili's trump card hasn't been used yet!

Gu Hongye also laughed, and said, "That's right, no one is like us. With a creative platform like Dongfang Chinese.com, they can also use popular novels to adapt comics."

"That's right, as I said before, entertainment is a three-dimensional industry, while novels, scripts and so on are all upstream. As for comics, they are in the middle, and film and television dramas are downstream." Fang Jiming said, "This three-dimensional In the industry, we control even the upstream, midstream and downstream, which means we have strong production capacity. As long as it is something that users like, ordinary people will also like it. In this way, we are not afraid of being left behind by others. "

Only then did Gu Hongye feel relieved: "That is to say, the other party is just a comic website, so it can't shake our position?"

"It is true that there is no way to shake the leading position, but the market share will still be divided."

Fang Jiming is also very helpless. Like Dongfang Chinese.com, although it still accounts for more than 90% of the online literature market, as time goes by, other websites have also begun to rise.Finally, Dongfang Chinese.com can maintain a market share of about 60%, which is already very good.Like Bilibili, the previous market share was 100%. After all, it is a unique business, and it is the only one in China.

However, the wisdom of the Chinese lies in seeing that others have succeeded, and copying others' paths can also be successful.

No, the market share of Bilibili has also begun to decline.

"I'm wondering why I, a rich second generation, don't have as much control over the market as you from an ordinary family?" Gu Hongye hesitated, but still expressed his confusion.

Fang Jiming talked about other things from left to right: "Haha, that's because I'm a bystander!"

Gu Hongye shook his head and said, "No, I feel that your sensitivity to the market is innate. And you are so courageous that no one can match. You just do things that others are not sure about, and you succeed."

"People have to be paranoid to be more successful." Fang Jiming smiled, "It's like you are paranoid about painting."

Gu Hongye thought about it carefully, and had to admit: "There is a certain reason."
