Rebirth 1984: Starting from the development of Hanka

Chapter 276 A large number of IPs
Zhao Ye takes advantage of the fact that he has more time now and plans to create some new super IPs.

He first typed the following content on his computer: "

Comics and cartoons: "Qin Shi Mingyue", "Zhenhun Street", "Those Things About That Rabbit That Year", "Douluo Dalu", "Fight to Break the Sky", "Mortal Cultivation of Immortality", "Fox Demon Little Matchmaker" , "Under One Person", "The List of Monsters", "Hundred Monsters", "The Patriarch of the Demonic Way", "The Bad Guy", "Gintama", "Qi Men Dun Jia" (Naruto), "One Piece", "Attack" Giants"……

"So many IPs, it's so overwhelming!" Zhao Ye looked at the dense content and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He thought, if he was allowed to create these IP contents, how long would it take to do it~
However, no one else knows these IP contents!
After thinking about it, Zhao Ye made a plan for himself, writing an IP in about half a month.

You can write 2 IPs a month, which is 24 IPs a year.

Of course, Zhao Ye only made the general framework of the IP, and the specific content needs to be improved by more professional personnel.

With so many super IPs, why not worry about Wujiang Group’s entertainment industry not being able to develop!
……

……

Shanghai Art Film Studio.

"Director Zhao, I feel that if we blindly criticize Marvel's superheroes, it may arouse the resentment of American Marvel fans, which will lead to a drop in comic sales!"

"I know that you don't care about money, Director Zhao, and it doesn't matter if the sales of Marvel comics have dropped, but this is not conducive to us exporting Chinese culture to the United States."

"The better the sales of Marvel, the better it will be for us to lay eggs by launching our Chinese superheroes and promote Chinese culture!"

Creative director Chen Wenhan found Zhao Ye at this time and expressed his thoughts.

Zhao Ye thought for a while, then nodded to express his agreement with the other party's point of view.

"Well, what you said does make sense. We can't simply criticize Marvel. Marvel is a very good platform. Shanghai Animation Film Studio can 'borrow chickens and lay eggs' and hatch our own superheroes! The better Marvel does, the more viewers will see our own superheroes and slowly accept them!" said Zhao Ye.

"Yes, Director Zhao, that's what I mean! In addition, I already have some ideas about creating our own superhero..." Chen Wenhan said.

"Oh, tell me!" Zhao Ye smiled and motioned for Chen Wenhan to continue.

"Director Zhao, this is what I think... For many foreigners, Chinese Kung Fu is very mysterious and powerful, so our superhero can be a martial arts master!"

When Zhao Ye heard this, he frowned slightly and said doubtfully: "Director Chen, American superheroes are either mutated or high-tech. Our country's superheroes only know martial arts. Isn't this a bit too hip?"

Chen Wenhan smiled and said: "Director Zhao, the martial arts I'm talking about are not the traditional martial arts in our real life, but the kung fu in martial arts novels. Let's talk about a master who can use Lingbo Weibu, Six Meridians Divine Sword, and acupuncture points. Isn’t it much more powerful than Spider-Man?”

"If it is made into a movie in the future, wouldn't it be more interesting to add a lot of kung fu elements to Marvel movies?"

"The most important thing is that this will make many foreigners interested in Chinese Kung Fu and even come to China to travel and learn from it..."

"In addition, the film can include scenes of traditional Chinese medicine treatment in the martial arts world, such as the use of magical energy to heal wounds and acupuncture, which will definitely make foreigners look at it. In this way, it will also benefit Wujiang Group in the future. Selling Chinese patent medicines all over the world.”

Chen Wenhan talked eloquently.

When Zhao Ye heard this, he nodded secretly in his heart.

Chinese kung fu itself is very attractive to foreigners. If the kung fu in martial arts novels were moved to the screen, wouldn't foreigners be stunned when they saw it?
Is Chinese Kung Fu so awesome?
Chen Wenhan paused and then said: "Of course, in addition to martial arts masters, superheroes can also be mythical ghost figures, and we can even play with mutations and high technology... However, I think it is possible for superheroes who know Chinese Kung Fu to It will be more popular and curious among foreigners.”

After Chen Wenhan finished speaking, he picked up the water glass, took a sip, and looked at Zhao Ye.

Zhao Ye smiled and said: "Director Chen, your idea is very good. Just do it as you think. Let's try to launch one or two Chinese superheroes first to see if Marvel fans can accept it. In the meantime, yes Choose a Marvel superhero for film and television adaptation. By the way, we also need to buy back some well-known superhero characters. If we make this big Marvel project popular, the companies that own Marvel characters will enjoy the benefits and add competitors. !”

As long as Hollywood studios are not allowed to make Marvel movies, Zhao Ye has nothing to worry about.

As long as Hollywood movies cannot compete with Shanghai Animation Film Studio's movies, Hollywood will decline sooner or later.

After hearing this, Chen Wenhan thought for a while and suggested: "Director Zhao, I suggest adapting Spider-Man first, because this character has the most fans!"

"Well, no problem, but when adapting the movie, we can try to add two characters who know Chinese kung fu."

Zhao Ye thought for a while and said, "One is the Fire Cloud Evil God. His shots are so fast that he can catch bullets. He thinks that 'all martial arts in the world are invincible, but speed is the only one that can't be broken'. He is the ultimate murderer who is feared in the world! In the twentieth century In the 70s and [-]s, Spider-Man chased bad guys and came to Hong Kong. As a result, he accidentally provoked the Fire Cloud Evil God and was almost beaten to death by the Fire Cloud Evil God. Fortunately, he was saved by a mysterious master named A Xing."

"This Ah Xing is another character who knows Chinese Kung Fu, and can use palm techniques that fall from the sky in one move."

“These two characters don’t have much screen time, but they must leave a deep enough impression!!”

As Zhao Ye talked, he was thinking that it could pave the way for the future filming of the movie "Kung Fu".

Fans may be in for a surprise when "Kung Fu" is released in the future.

Adding two more characters with less screen time doesn't change Spider-Man much.

I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, just let it penetrate slowly from now on.Chen Wenhan quickly wrote down Zhao Ye's words, and couldn't help but be a little interested in the Fire Cloud Evil God that Zhao Ye just described.

……

……

Hollywood, USA.

At this time, Marvel began to recycle the superhero characters that had been sold before at high prices.

Money opens the way and everything goes smoothly.

A large number of characters were recycled within half a month.

However, there are also companies that are unwilling to sell Marvel characters to Marvel, and may want to take advantage of the opportunity to raise prices.

Regarding this situation, Zhao Ye will never condone it. If the character cannot be bought back, he will destroy it in the comics and directly make him a despised villain, or simply hide it and never think about showing his face in the comics again.

On February 1997, 2, Shanghai Animation Film Studio announced that the film adaptation of "Spider-Man" was officially approved, the script was being polished, and the investment budget was no less than US$1 million.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation in North America.

Countless fans jumped for joy.

"Oh, God, sure enough, after Shanghai Art Film Studio acquired Marvel, it immediately started adapting it into film and television. It's really exciting!"

"DC Comics' Batman has already been filmed several times, and Marvel has not yet succeeded in making it into a film and TV show. It has to be Shanghai Art Film Studio. If it hadn't acquired Marvel, I don't know if I would be able to see it in my lifetime." Marvel movies!”

"Here I go, the movie budget is as high as 1 million US dollars. It's a real blockbuster. The last blockbuster that impressed me was "Independence Day" invested and shot by Shanghai Art Film Studio! This time, I believe that Shanghai Art Film Studio will The studio can also make "Spider-Man" well!!!"

"..."

At this time, even those fans on the Internet who originally opposed Shanghai Art Film Studio's acquisition of Marvel have now changed their attitudes.

Obviously, they all realize that only Shanghai Animation Film Studio can successfully adapt Marvel comics into live-action movies!
As the news spreads, major Hollywood film companies and agencies are ready to participate in the "Spider-Man" project.

The film production capabilities of Shanghai Animation Film Studio are obvious to all.

And "Spider-Man" also has a huge fan base.

Therefore, the probability of success of this film project is very high.

For a time, Shanghai Animation Film Studio was bustling with people.

In fact.

Shanghai Animation Film Studio has not only launched the "Spider-Man" project.

During this period, Zhao Ye wrote three IPs and handed them over to Shanghai Art Film Studio for improvement. One was the comic "Gintama" and the other two were movies: "The Matrix" and "Harry Potter."

Of course, "Harry Potter" was a best-selling novel in its previous life and made huge profits. Especially with the popularity of the movie, the novel also became popular.

Therefore, Zhao Ye plans to let the writers trained by the company write "Harry Potter" and publish a physical book when the movie is released.

"Gintama" will be published as a manga first, and then it can be made into an animated film. By then, it will not be a problem for it to become popular throughout Asia.

……

"The peripheral value of film and television dramas is often higher than the box office revenue, and toys are the most important part of peripheral income. The American company Hasbro is not only a toy giant, but also controls several IPs, especially " "Transformers". So, my idea is to acquire Hasbro!" Zhao Ye said solemnly in the conference room.

In order to crack down on Hollywood movies, Zhao Ye decided to acquire all IP that could threaten Shanghai Art Film Studio.

"Transformers" is a super IP. Instead of benefiting American companies, it is better to let yourself eat it.

The market value of Hasbro is very high, but Zhao Ye believes that acquiring this company is still very profitable.

Seeing this, everyone quickly wrote down this matter. No one would object to Zhao Ye's decision.

Moreover, Hasbro is indeed worth acquiring as it is a high-quality industry.

However, Hasbro is a large American company after all. It is not easy to acquire it, and the possibility of failure is high.

Zhao Ye was actually very aware of this situation, but he still had to give it a try.

Since opening the U.S. market, Wujiang Group's profits have increased dramatically and it has a large amount of cash reserves. Instead of keeping it in the bank as just a number on paper, it is better to spend it and transform it into industry to create greater benefits and influence.
