Chapter 1176 Inappropriate Age

"So what do you need me to do?"

After figuring out what Donna Lande wanted, Yang Cheng didn't get entangled, and directly asked what she was going to do. Only by dividing up the labor and cooperating can they compete with Disney for the cake.

Furthermore, the development of a new IP is a systematic work. There is a complete and complex mechanism in Hollywood. Whether the same mechanism can work on the IP of country Z, no one knows, at least these years There are very few Hollywood IP movies about Country Z that are successful. I am afraid that only "Kung Fu Panda" can be called a success.

But no one can deny that country Z possesses the unparalleled cultural accumulation and reserves of other countries in the world, and there are enough resource pools that can be converted into serial IPs by film companies.

At present, the Journey to the West series, the Kyushu series, the Ghost Blowing Lamp series, and the Tomb Notes series are the biggest IPs in the country Z film market today. When many fans heard that a remake was going to be made, their first reaction was that it was a bad movie.

The most successful one is of course "Journey to the West". Compared with the sky-high copyright fees of other well-known IPs, "Journey to the West" can be said to be the most valuable free IP lunch in the world.

Now all the derivatives of this IP on the market are re-created based on Wu Chengen's original work.

In addition to the version of "Journey to the West" filmed by Yang Ma in the 1980s, over the past 30 years, film and television works linked to this IP have emerged in an endless stream, such as "Brilliant Spring Pig Bajie", "Journey to the West" and the cartoon version of "Journey to the West" Wait.

There is also "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage", which is known as a conscience domestic animation. No matter how the mode changes, it tells the story of the four masters and apprentices over and over again, and at most a group of white dragon horses are added.

But it is this person plus 4 anthropomorphic animal characters that have created countless spiritual entertainment wealth for modern people, of course, more cash wealth.

In 2013, "Journey to the West Conquering the Demons" had a box office of 1.246 billion; in 2014, "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" had a box office of 1.046 billion yuan; in 2015, "Journey to the West: Three Fighting Bone Demons" had a box office of 1.201 billion yuan; ", the box office is expected to start at 1 billion.

So far, how many movies have the box office of movies in country Z exceeding 1 billion yuan? 2 Among them, those adapted from the theme of "Journey to the West" accounted for a quarter or even a third, which shows that this super IP with national cultural characteristics contains huge energy in the transformation of film and television.

In addition, the development of the game industry chain with the theme of Journey to the West is also the core industry for the commercial value of this IP. In the game industry, there are game developments related to "Journey to the West" every year, generating at least more than 10 billion in value.

According to experts' speculation, the output value that Journey to the West can create in the future will be as high as trillions. I am afraid that when Wu Chengen wrote the book, he never thought that one day his book would become one of the largest gold mines in country Z.

Similarly, there are Ghost Blowing Lantern and Tomb Raider Notes series. These are super IPs worthy of repeated development by all entertainment-related industries. Just come to your door.

But for those IP resources that are still in their infancy or have not even been hatched, it is necessary to form a special team to go deep into the mainland of country Z, and spend countless time, energy and money to find them. This is why Donna Langde found Yang Cheng , she couldn't find anyone who knew country Z better than Yang Cheng.

However, Yang Cheng gave her a big surprise, "About the development of China's IP resources, you and I have thought about it together. In fact, as early as the year before last, I was in country Z A sum of money has been invested, part of which is dedicated to IP reserves, although I have paid little attention to it recently, I believe that the work there has already yielded results, why don't you contact me?"

Donna Round was overjoyed, "This is why I love you~"

Yang Cheng shrugged, he knew this was not a confession, but just Lao Mei's emotional expression, but he still joked, "Our age is not suitable."

Donna Langde hung up the phone speechlessly, Yang Cheng would always show her unreliable side at certain times.

Putting away the phone, Yang Cheng raised her legs and said to Andrew, "Go to the Hearst Building~"

I just mentioned Amanda. I haven’t seen my old friend for a long time. I’m free now. It’s good to have a cup of coffee in the past. As a result, without any notice, I missed it without any accident. Amanda is on a business trip in Europe. Can't come back in time.

Reluctantly, Yang Cheng called his mother, planning to invite her to have afternoon tea.

In the end, he was told that he was busy at the moment and had no time to go out. Just as Yang Cheng was about to say forget it, his mother suggested that he should just drink at the company.

Of course, it wasn't that the mother wanted to see her son, but she ordered Yang Cheng to run errands, go to the hotel for her and move the afternoon tea to the company, because Yang Cheng's proposal aroused her desire to take selfies.

There is no way, Yang Cheng can only resign himself to his fate as a running errand, rushing to the hotel opposite the Apple flagship store on Fifth Avenue, and packing the tea set for afternoon tea to the LV flagship store, if not for his face. , this place that has been doing afternoon tea for more than 100 years may not necessarily agree to his slightly 'rude' request.

The hotel's afternoon tea is top-notch even in the Upper East Side. It is different from other luxury and exquisite afternoon teas. It has a unique tropical jungle style, but it is the favorite place for ladies in Manhattan. Only by being different can you show your style no?

Others are wearing tight gowns and drinking afternoon tea under the resplendent and magnificent, and the background of the photo is generally difficult for people to distinguish the position. Think about it, will it be very depressing?

And you are wearing loose and casual clothes in the hotel, taking pictures leisurely, with large palm leaves behind you, as long as you have a little knowledge, you can see that you are there, full of sense of accomplishment, envious of all the little bitches!

In addition to being overcrowded and unable to book a seat all year round, another major feature is that it is expensive. In addition to the afternoon tea service specially provided for children, which is "generally expensive", the other two options are divided into "very expensive" and "very expensive". , in short, the average person is best not to try to open the menu easily, it will make you lose all your courage.

Ingredients such as caviar and lobster are standard ingredients. If you don’t have a piece of gold leaf chocolate cake, you can’t reflect your noble status in the Upper East Side, and this is also one of the must-have props for group photos.

Of course, Yang Cheng has no need to take pictures, so he can sell a whole menu without taking up the position. For the restaurant manager of the hotel, this is enough motivation to make him forget his inner principles. For the sake of 1,000 US dollars, a full-time service staff was sent to be responsible for bringing the honorable service to the VIPs, which was no less than that enjoyed during the afternoon tea in the hotel. Finally, when sending Yang Cheng away respectfully, he did not forget to remind He will come again next time.
