"The Grandmaster of Martial Arts: 2" is just a pre-sale performance, and it is worthy of this era. So far, the drama with the strongest commercial appeal in China is now.

But just making money is not the only pursuit of Dimension Entertainment. Due to Fan Zhe’s influence, there is a belief in the company that making money is of course important, but it is also important to make a good work or a loved one.

Only with the support of this idea officially, they will make iPs like "Hell Apartment".

So far, "Hell Apartment 2" has only a box office of 520 million yuan. After the money is divided into shares, it will probably make more than 200 million yuan. Although the investment is small, it is not a small number of energy invested just in terms of the amount of money you earn. Compared with a huge IP like "Master of Martial Arts", the amount of money you earn is a drop in the bucket. So far, the combined income of the two movies "Master of Martial Arts" is estimated to end up with almost 3 billion yuan, which is a 15-fold gap.

But despite this, Weidu Entertainment still made "Hell Apartment", and in the future, they will still do this type of thing. Doing themes and stories that have never appeared in China or even globally is one of the pursuits of the company Weidu Entertainment.

There is no need to say more about "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts" making money, but they don't want it. After this work was launched, it was criticized as "scam money" because of its low quality.

Of course, this kind of thing won't really happen.

On the day when "Master of Martial Arts: Two" was officially launched, the ratings on Douban were also unlocked on the same day. This work still scored a high score of 8.6 while having a huge audience.

Although this score will tend to decline as the screening time becomes longer in the future, I am afraid that it will not fall below eight points in the end.

Eight points, if you understand it according to Douban’s scoring system, it is also a watershed for an excellent work.

However, the sales increase is probably due to pre-sales. A large number of potential viewers have purchased the full episode of this drama, so the subsequent growth rate is not as terrifying as pre-sales. However, it is estimated that when the series "Master of Martial Arts: Second" is updated and the paid content stage is approaching, the sales situation will rise again.

In any case, "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts: Second" also achieved a good result of both reputation and achievements.

...

Regarding the release of the next part, Fan Zhe stopped paying attention to the release of the next part after seeing that the results were indeed very good.

He has a little bit of things on hand recently.

After the New Year, the company launched four new projects, two animations, a movie and a game.

The two animations are the long serial animation "Hell Apartment", and the seasonal animation of "Demon Hunting".

All of this has been handed over to Mile, the general manager of the company's animation department, so Fan Zhe has not had much to worry about.

But he himself has to put in a lot of effort in the other two projects.

By the way, these two projects are related to the company's game department.

The game among them, the project currently code-named "Ming Dynasty" in the company, has been officially launched. The person in charge of this project is Gao Yixiang.

Lao Gao and a group of people were split out from Luozhou Studio and established a new studio called "Second World". They will be responsible for the development of the game project "Da Ming".

The main reason why they don’t continue to let Luozhou Studio do this project is that they have their own tasks.

Luozhou Studio’s current main work is to maintain "Taiwu 2". Weidu Entertainment may not be able to sell it after it has been developed and sold it, so it will be left there without paying attention.

Basic work such as bug fixes and game server maintenance must continue to be promoted. In addition, new appearances, new maps, new martial arts, etc. are also required.

Of course, these will eventually be broadcast in DLC, with free and paid, which will allow players to always have new content to play.

In addition, the film project the company is currently setting up is also related to Luozhou Studio. Previously, Weidu Entertainment announced an event about "Taiwu 2" to the public, collecting game scripts and making movies.

This event has received widespread response from players - it would be such an interesting thing to make your gameplay experience turn into a movie.

Not to mention, the player who is finally selected will receive a bonus of 250,000 US dollars.

Just for this part of the bonus, I don’t know how many professional players are willing to devote their efforts to doing it.

This activity was initiated in the name of Luozhou Studio, and the entire operation activity was of course mainly based on them.

Under the pressure of working from multiple parties, Luozhou Studio couldn't draw any staff and then started developing a new game.

This game, code-named "The Ming Dynasty", is directly positioned at 3A level. Even if it has a "dimensional" system to handle a lot of visual and artistic work, the entire scale is here, and the development team must have one or two hundred people.

There are only a few dozen people who have been transferred from Luozhou Studio. In the current view, these personnel are barely enough for the project launch stage. When the project enters deep development, if you don’t want to do a game for three or five years, you will inevitably have to increase the personnel.

Gao Yixiang has looked for Fan Zhe many times in the past few days.

Seeing this guy appearing at the door of his office again, Fan Zhe felt a headache.

"Why are you here again?"

"What does it mean? I'm just here for the first time today, okay?"

Fan Zhe rolled his eyes and said, "Are you talking about manpower issues?"

"Yes! The preliminary preparations for "The Ming Dynasty" are almost done, and the planning project has been released for several editions. Now it is about to enter the formal development stage, but there are too few people! If you follow the current manpower and take out the first version of the internal DEMO, it will probably be three years later! I don't know how long it will take to go online officially!"

"Didn't I tell you yesterday? I've already greeted Mr. Ye, and she has also criticized you and given you the right to recruit people. If you lack people, don't look for me. Go and ask for personnel!" Fan Zhe was really speechless.

"I know, I know." Gao Yixiang nodded repeatedly, then licked his face and pressed it on, saying, "However, the people recruited from outside are not familiar with each other, and they are mixed with fish and dragons. It's okay to recruit ordinary people, but they lack the person in charge!"

"What do you want to do?" Fan Zhe became alert.

"Hehe...I want Zhong Hua to enter our studio and become the art director..."
Chapter completed!
