Chapter 471 Settlement
Pei Qian froze.
At this moment, he felt as if he had read the article for ten seconds and rubbed out a Pyroblast spell, but it just hit the opponent's shield reflection, and instead smeared his face.
However, Mr. Pei, after all, has experienced many battles, and quickly calmed down.
"Overseas distribution company..."
"As far as I know, domestic films are generally not very popular in overseas markets..."
"Most of the box office is... one or two million dollars?"
Pei Qian still has a little understanding of these basic knowledge.
Although there are many popular domestic films that try to distribute overseas, due to cultural barriers, language and other issues, the results are often not particularly satisfactory. Films that can easily exceed 100 million in China may only cost one or two million dollars abroad, and It also depends on the subject matter.
Pei Qian made a calculation. If it was only one million US dollars, it would not seem to be too heavy a burden to simply calculate based on the share and exchange rate.
A small scene of several million can still be easily held.
What he is more concerned about now is, which overseas distribution company with no eyesight is interested in this film? ?
Huang Sibo smiled and said, "It is true."
"With the retirement of many Chinese movie stars who have great influence in Hollywood, the overseas box office appeal of domestic films is also declining; at the same time, because the domestic market is developing faster and our national self-esteem and self-confidence are getting stronger and stronger, so Many films simply focus on the domestic market and no longer pursue the tastes of overseas markets."
"So in recent years, many domestic blockbusters that have easily earned hundreds of millions of box office, but only one or two million in the international box office, the number of films in the lineup is not high, and the influence is very limited."
"But it's also for this reason that our film stands out!"
"Although "Journey to the Flying Star" is popular all over the world, it is an overseas sci-fi film with a large investment after all. "A Better Tomorrow" can get a box office close to it with a very low investment, and it is completely suppressed in terms of word of mouth. This has given overseas distribution companies great confidence!"
"Moreover, "A Better Tomorrow" also has a unique advantage, that is, it is voiced in English throughout. The background of the story is in the future world, which blurs the concept of country and ethnicity. There is no too obscure local culture, and it is easier to be accepted by foreign audiences. !"
"And the main theme of the film is to explore the gap between the rich and the poor, excessive consumption, capital's alienation of people, etc., which are more likely to resonate with overseas audiences!"
"So don't worry, Mr. Pei, the box office of our film probably earns more than one million dollars, and it will definitely be higher than this!"
"..." Pei Qian didn't know how to respond for a while.
Zhu Xiaoce added: "By the way, President Pei, don't underestimate the English pronunciation!"
"You know, foreigners are very, very resistant to subtitles. The reason is very simple. English is a relatively long language, and reading subtitles is very tiring."
"A very strong evidence is that there are large-scale barrage video websites in China and Neon, but not in foreign countries. This is because our text is ideographic, and the information is highly condensed, and the barrage can be understood at a glance. meaning, but not in English.”
"Adding subtitles is the same. Foreign audiences are not as used to subtitles as we are. For them, whether there is an English voice is a key factor for them to watch!"
"So, our film speaks English throughout, which is a huge advantage! Although the three leading actors all have a little Asian accent, foreigners don't care about the accent. Ethnic distinctions."
"In short, from the beginning of the script, this film is very in line with the tastes of overseas markets!"
"Boss Pei, you have made everyone speak English, you definitely have a long-term vision!"
Zhu Xiaoce gave a thumbs up excitedly.
Pei Qian: "..."
He wanted to say, no, you are wrong! I'm not long-sighted at all, I'm so short-sighted! I was only thinking about dissuading domestic audiences in English, but I never thought that this film would one day go to overseas markets!
However, looking at Zhu Xiaoce and Huang Sibo's reverent eyes, Pei Qian could only sigh silently in his heart.
Uncomfortable wow!

Wednesday, March 30.
In the past two days, GOG players ushered in the ultimate carnival.
In the early hours of yesterday, GOG's first season of spring competition has locked the results.
And today, all the bonuses have been distributed, making the whole activity reach its peak!
There are posts discussing this event everywhere on the Internet.
Of course, some people question the real strength of the winners. After all, there are no absolutely fair rules in this world, and the psychology of sour grapes always makes people instinctively envy those lucky ones.
But this kind of noise, after all, only accounts for a very small part.
Because the rules of this competition are open, fair, and transparent, although there will definitely be situations where the double-row hugs the thighs, but generally speaking, the players who can make it to the top 500 in such a short period of time are all real talents. of.
Because of the short time, the actors and the studio didn't respond that quickly. Before enough influence was formed, the results were locked and bonuses were issued.
The players who got the bonus were all very happy. Posting their results, posting their bonuses, and accepting worship further stimulated and increased the popularity of GOG.
In short, everyone is very happy.
The players got money, the GOG project team gained popularity, and Mr. Pei also distributed coins.
It's just that other people's happiness is unconditional happiness, but Mr. Pei's happiness is mixed with deep worries.
Because he found that the popularity of the game has risen far beyond his expectations...
In Pei Qian's view, this seems to be a sign of getting out of control!
Therefore, the witty Mr. Pei gave Hu Xianbin a task yesterday, which was to ask him to analyze this season's scoring activities, and then write a detailed report and submit it.
On the surface, he is keeping homework, but in fact, Mr. Pei himself wants to know what's going on...
It has to be said that Hu Xianbin's efficiency is indeed very high, and Pei Qian got this analysis report today.
It's just that after watching it, my heart is even colder...
...
In the short and intense process of scoring points, the number of active players of GOG, whether it is a mobile game or a terminal game, is skyrocketing every day.
The temptation of "a weekly salary of 100,000 yuan" is irresistible to players. Even if some people's reason keeps telling them that it is impossible to get this 100,000 yuan, luck will still drive them to enter the game and give it a try.
GOG's season rewards are so rich that it attracts a large number of newcomers who have never played similar games before. In addition, the AI set up to protect the game experience of newcomers makes the experience of most people in the initial stage of entering the game very good. The positive feedback of the game is very strong, so most people will have the illusion of their own talents.
And when I really realize that I can't get the bonus at all, I have often played high-intensity for two or three days, I am very familiar with the game, and I have also experienced the fun of the game, so it is unlikely to get out of the pit.
Not only that, the luck of the players will also drive them to "jump repeatedly".
If you are confident in rubbing the screen, play the mobile game version;
If you are confident in operating the keyboard and mouse, play the end game version;
Those who have been beaten in the client game version, feel that the players in the mobile game version are better, and consider switching to the mobile game version;
If you find it uncomfortable to rub the screen in the mobile game version, and feel that the keyboard and mouse operation of the client game version is more convenient and accurate, consider switching to the client game version.
The setting of dual-terminal data communication makes players not at all against dual-terminal conversion, but enjoys it, and even stimulates their desire to buy skins.
After all, the skin is shared at both ends, one consumption, double happiness.
Going around, when the players realize that they are good at playing PC games or mobile games, the game habit has also been developed.
In short, this event can be said to be steady, accurate, and ruthless. It not only wiped out the experienced players, but also captured a large number of newcomers. In a short period of time, the popularity of GOG was pulled to a very high level through high bonuses, and in the studio The event ended before the directors had time to react, ensuring fairness to the greatest extent.
What followed were some mindless compliments on Mr. Pei.
...
After reading the report, Pei Qian was silent.
Finally figured out why the data is abnormal.
From this point of view, the money is indeed lost, but the price seems to be a bit high, completely exceeding my original expectations...
"never mind."
"In short, as long as you can lose money in this cycle, we will talk about the future."
"However, the current situation of GOG also seems to expose my huge problem in understanding the game..."
"No, the next game will definitely change this situation, and you can't make any more money!"
"To sum up experience and learn lessons, we must make a failed game!"
After several days of contemplation behind closed doors, Pei Qian has already thought of a good idea for a street game.
In the next cycle, the two game departments must be clearly arranged!

Thursday, March 31.
In front of Pei Qian's eyes, the system light curtain automatically appeared.
【Wealth Conversion System 2.0】
[Host: Pei Qian]

[The wealth conversion value of the current cycle reaches more than 200,000, and the mysterious rewards within the system rules will be obtained. (Available)]
[Currently unfinished project: Palpitation Hostel. Must be officially open for business before next settlement. 】
Seeing this, Pei Qian finally let out a sigh of relief.
comfortable!
After buying the house, Pei Qian had about 180,000 yuan left. He earned 100,000 yuan by writing movie scripts, and received tens of thousands of yuan in red envelopes during the Chinese New Year.
Most of the usual daily expenses are basically reimbursed by the company, so I don’t spend much of this money, so I save it all.
After converting more than 580,000 this time, Pei Qian's personal property returned to 920,000.
It's hard work, but worth it!
Relatively speaking, it is obviously more cost-effective to lose money. The same conversion is 530,000, and it takes 500 million to make money.
Moreover, the 500 million must be placed in the company's account at the time of settlement, and cannot be used for investment in order to achieve conversion. But all this money is piled up in the company's account and not invested, so how can you make more money?
So, in any case, losing money is the correct way to open the system.
Pei Qian noticed that after the system entered 2.0, although the ratio was lowered due to the Matthew effect, it seemed that the difficulty of achieving losses was correspondingly reduced.
In the past, Pei Qian was exhausted, and he had to settle three times to lose money once.
But now, it seems that losses can be stabilized.
On the one hand, this is because Pei Qian became more and more aware of the temper of the system after repeated failures, and developed more tricks, such as allowing drinking poison to quench thirst and exchanging money for reputation;
On the other hand, it is because the system has given more conveniences after the upgrade, such as a charity quota for each cycle, allowing a project to be extended to two cycles to complete.
To be able to pay this time, the tens of millions thrown out by the Jingpal Hotel are very important.
Calculated, 600,000 yuan of personal property was converted in five months, which is considered a monthly income of 100,000 yuan!
Well, congratulations!
With this money, it is no problem to buy furniture and home appliances for the new house, and do some soft decoration.
Of course, we have to make persistent efforts.
In addition, Pei Qian also discovered a small hidden danger, that is, in terms of fixed assets, the villa of Ming Yun's private kitchen has increased by more than 200,000 yuan...
Buying fixed assets in the name of the company for business activities can indeed cost a lot of money at once, but Pei Qian has been afraid to buy more because it will affect the settlement.
The biggest problem with fixed assets is that after converting 10%, it takes up system funds. When calculating losses, losses = initial system funds - current system funds - 10% of fixed assets, which is very painful.
If the initial capital of the system is only 10 million, and all the fixed assets of the company are worth 100 million, then there will be an embarrassing situation that even if Pei Qian spends all the system funds, it still does not count as a loss.
However, this is the first settlement of the 2.0 system after all, and the initial system funds will continue to increase in the future.
As long as the initial system funds become 20 million, 30 million or even 50 million, then Pei Qian can consider buying more fixed assets in the name of the company for production and business activities.
And the more funds in the system, the more losses, and the more money converted.
"I hope the next cycle's system funds will be higher..." Pei Qian prayed silently.
