Entertainment News: Kneeling on the knee of the "Fairy Sister," you say she got proposed t

Filming of Chapter 107 has ended, and the broadcasting rights have been sold.

At this point, he also began his own actions. He knew of a major IP, and he had to act quickly.

That's the studio of Dumpling and his team. It's a big deal, and a small investment with a big return.

Liu Yifei didn't stop him at all in this regard. She knew he had a talent for it, so she just listened to him.

Then Lu Yuan sent someone to find Director Dumpling, preparing to invest in their studio.

He knew that at the end of 14, Enlight Media's Coloroom Pictures and Dumpling had negotiated and finalized a cooperation agreement.

Coco Animation was founded in 15. Coloroom Pictures invested four million to acquire a 30% stake in Coco Animation.

This money was the initial funding for "Ne Zha," and the subsequent film production cost approximately 6000 million yuan.

So he was determined to get the directorship for Jiaozi, based on the talent of his team.

The company certainly has professional negotiation experts, and negotiations are conducted by these professionals.

Lu Yuan and Liu Yifei jointly invested eight million yuan in the dumpling studio. This time, they didn't bring Chen Jinfei along, so it was truly their own investment.

Coco Animation was established, with Lu Yuan and his team receiving 49% of the shares, while Jiaozi and his partners held 51%, retaining their creative autonomy.

However, we have priority and exclusive investment rights for all of Jiaozi's film projects over the next eight years.

We possess permanent exclusive IP rights; movies, sequels, and merchandise can only be developed by us, and Jiaozi may not authorize any third party.

We will receive 70% of all revenue generated from IP derivatives, while the core creative team will receive 30%.

All sorts of rules and regulations were written out, and Cocoa Bean Animation was established ahead of schedule.

At this point, Dumpling brought out her long-planned "Nezha" project.

Cocoa Bean Animation has also been officially approved for the project. Lu Yuan originally came for "Nezha", so of course he couldn't wait for the project to be approved as soon as possible.

When Jiaozi contacted Lu Yuan to discuss making a "Nezha" animation, he immediately agreed and told him to just go for it.

However, he didn't mention increasing investment or starting to burn money right now.

Let the dumpling test the waters first, and after it figures things out on its own and encounters many difficulties, it will finalize its idea.

That's when you should invest big money; if you talk about it now, you might not even get the desired results.

He remembered that even when companies under Enlight Media entered the market, they initially spent very little money.

-

It's been revised constantly; there have been 66 revisions of the script, as well as character designs.

It wasn't until 17 that they started investing heavily, outsourcing dozens of special effects companies and bringing in a large number of personnel. The 6000 million yuan investment only came in at this time.

This time can be brought forward, but we need to let Jiaozi test the waters first and inspire his ambition to undertake a big project.

If you invest at that time, the money will be spent wisely; otherwise, much of the money invested may be wasted.

Another point is to let Jiaozi see that domestic animated films have the potential to be big hits.

The release of the movie "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" also showed the domestic audience that China is capable of producing high-quality animated films.

Animated films will attract many viewers, which will give Jiaozi even more confidence in "Nezha".

"Monkey King: Hero Is Back" truly redefined domestic animated films, and this movie was a shot in the arm for the industry.

That's why there are so many excellent animated films later on, because this film showed investors the potential of animated films.

Before this, not many people wanted to invest in animated films because it was considered a money pit, and you couldn't make any money at all.

Many of them are just scamming for subsidies and don't put any effort into doing it.

The huge success of "Ne Zha" further demonstrated the potential of animated films to investors, leading to a continuous stream of animated films being released afterward.

These movies generally had good storylines and were quite successful at the box office, many outperforming some big-budget films.

The toy company that Lu Yuan acquired is now producing merchandise related to "The Journey of Flower," and they will be able to ship in large quantities once the show airs.

In addition to producing merchandise related to "The Journey of Flower," the company also negotiated an exclusive collaboration with Wang Xinming and global copyright for his work, launching a constellation-themed blind box series.

This is why Pop Mart became so popular later, and now Lu Yuan has directly snatched it away.

Long Jiasheng, the creator of Labubu, also signed an exclusive cooperation contract with the company.

It will take him 15 years to complete Labub, but he already has some ideas and early sketches.

Therefore, Lu Yuan couldn't directly move Labubu, but he had communicated with Long Jiasheng.

The two chatted happily, and Lu Yuan also saw the sketch of Labubu in his hand, which was indeed almost complete.

Then Lu Yuan completely recreated Labubu's design based on his work.

When he showed the picture of Labubu to Long Jiasheng, Long Jiasheng was completely stunned.

This was the effect he wanted, and then Lu Yuan and Long Jiasheng jointly owned the copyright to Labubu's image.

So he used this loophole to obtain the copyright to Labubu's creative version of the character.

Otherwise, he would have to rely on his own creativity and modify the facial features to make them significantly different from Long Jiasheng's sketch.

However, he is not a professional in this area and has not yet extracted any relevant terms.

Because he hadn't encountered any talent in this field in the entertainment industry, he could only exploit this loophole.

Having only commercial licenses isn't enough; after all, this is Labubu, who's popular all over the world, so he wants to own the image copyright.

But Long Jiasheng wasn't selling, so he found an opportunity to exploit this loophole.

The main factor now is still blind boxes, which stimulate young people's desire to consume.

This XiXi toy company has also officially gotten busy, not only with "The Journey of Flower" merchandise, but also with MoIly.

The Zodiac Generation.

There's also a whole blind box series for "The Journey of Flower," which is what Xixi Trendy Toys has been busy with lately.

His goal with the blind box series was to make it an instant hit, and to pave the way for the MoIIy constellation generation before the broadcast of "The Journey of Flower".

Even if it doesn't sell as well as Pop Mart originally, it doesn't matter. When the "The Journey of Flower" blind box comes out, who can compete with it!

In this way, even if Pop Mart had ideas, it wouldn't be able to implement them, because by then Xixi Trendy Toys would have become the industry leader.

Their best-selling products are all from Xixi Trendy Toys, so how can they play with them?

After filming the TV series "The Journey of Flower" was completed, Lu Yuan handed it over to the company's editing team.

Some of the editing team members were his classmates and seniors, which also provided employment opportunities for students from the same school.

After filming, he would give a final review to ensure the film was completely transformed to his liking.

Of course, the song "Rings of Time" is also indispensable, but he has not invited Wang Sulong to write songs now.

It's impossible for Wang Sulong to read this novel or compose this song for no reason.

Lu Yuan acquired "The Years" with a perfectly reasonable conscience.

The promotional version of this song for the TV series was sung by Zhang Bichen, and Wang Sulong also has a version.

Later, due to disagreements with the original singer, Wang Sulong directly withheld the copyright of the song from Zhang Bichen.

He wouldn't have this problem now, and he wouldn't seek cooperation with Zhang Bichen; there's no need for it.

Liu Yifei could also sing, but to be honest, her voice wasn't quite right. Lu Yuan consulted her, and she chose to give up singing the song.

She still loves acting. Inviting Lu Yuan to sing was really just a whim, and she was also interested in him as a person.

She'd had enough fun, so there was no need to sing anymore, unless it was a love song written by Lu Yuan, in which case she would consider singing it.

In the end, Zhang Liangying benefited again, as her voice was perfect for the song.

Even though Zhang Liangying herself felt embarrassed this time, she still paid a small fee to secure the rights to perform the song.

Lu Yuan also plans to record a version himself, as he thinks the song is quite good.

He quite liked the version sung by Wang Sulong at the time, but compared to the drama, the female version was definitely more suitable.

That's why he had no intention of singing it himself as an interlude in "The Journey of Flower".

The song "Unspeakable" was written by Lu Yuan and Liu Yifei themselves.

"Eternal Love" was also created by Xu Song for this drama, so Lu Yuan didn't feel obligated to just copy and use it.

The original singer of the song was found, and Lu Yuan also recorded a version himself.

He also likes this song, but he thinks a female voice is more suitable for TV dramas.

These are all custom-made songs, written based on the storyline, and even the music is based on the storyline.

He wasn't afraid of any similarities, which is why he didn't invite these people to write songs; he just used the ones he wanted.

If we choose a different song, we need to think about whether someone else has a creative idea at this time.

If you have a creative idea, you'll be afraid of having the same song as someone else.

If two songs clash, as long as you release your song first, the other person can only accept their bad luck.

Some singers who are similar in style genuinely have a similar idea, while others are simply copying.

Lu Yuan managed to get the song in hand while filming, which Liu Yifei greatly admired, thinking that talented people are indeed a good thing.

Of course, what she didn't know was that Lu Yuan had moved all of these things.

But one thing is certain: Lu Yuan is indeed talented; he is capable of extracting other people's talent entries.

It would be a waste not to use songs that have already been verified; he didn't want to waste that time.

Of course, those who know, know.

After filming the TV series version of The Journey of Flower, the movie version took a month and a half.

Once everyone got used to the performance format on the big screen, filming was quite quick.

When the last shot was filmed, the entire crew cheered.

Filming is finally finished, and this period of work is now over.

#Filming of "The Journey of Flower" wraps up#

Many people in Hengdian already pay attention to these film crews, and the filming of "The Journey of Flower" quickly gained attention after it wrapped up.

These people posted the message online, and the fans automatically pushed it to the top.

"Filming for 'The Journey of Flower' has wrapped up. Looking forward to its release date."

"Lu Yuan's Bai Zihua is really handsome."

"Hehe—this master-apprentice duo, it turns out Lu Yuan is younger than Liu Yifei."

"Master-disciple pairing, so exciting! It used to be Little Dragon Girl and Yang Guo, now it's Bai Zihua and Hua Qiangu."

"These two pairs are doing things in reverse, hahaha————"

"That's true, but if we're talking about angst, Bai Zihua and Hua Qiangu's story is a bit more tragic."

"Of course, female-oriented novels love to torture the female protagonist."

"Xixi is so cute, how is it different from before?"

"There are still differences; it's become more beautiful now."

After domestic fans found out, they started discussing it heatedly. Of course, after domestic fans found out, international fans also inevitably found out.

Fans abroad also started discussing it, and TV stations in countries like the Korean Peninsula and Japan were already prepared.

Knowing that domestic audiences want to watch it, and that there's already a large following, they're all waiting for news from here.

We contacted Meet Entertainment immediately to discuss purchasing the broadcasting rights.

This time, the broadcasting rights will certainly not be sold off cheaply like last time; his and Xixi's fame is now quite different.

In addition, his reputation as a screenwriter and director is also different, which has already been proven.

So we can't skimp on ourselves, but of course we can't be too expensive and scare away these foreign TV stations.

It must be broadcast overseas to solidify the popularity of the two and also to promote cultural exchange.

After the wrap party, everyone left, while Lu Yuan and Xi Xi returned to Yanjing.

After returning to Yanjing, he and his company team began editing the film version without stopping.

The film was very important, so he decided to personally oversee the production, carefully controlling the pace of each step to ensure a smooth and coherent effect.

Youku, Tencent, and iQiyi have also taken action, contacting Meet Entertainment.

Because they still owe Lu Yuan for "Pinocchio", this time the three companies will cooperate to buy the online streaming rights.

Like sharks smelling blood, Hunan TV is also preparing to seek cooperation.

Lu Yuan is now a top-tier celebrity, and Lu Han has also returned to China, making everyone realize how terrifying Lu Yuan's popularity is.

Lu Han already had a lot of fans at this time, but she was still far behind Lu Yuan.

Moreover, Lu Yuan's popularity in countries like Japan and Korea is far greater than Lu Han's.

There's also Li Yifeng, who became a top star after the broadcast of "Swords of Legends," but his popularity still can't compare to Lu Yuan's.

Everyone felt that since Lu Yuan was a top star, they were also top stars, and there was a suspicion that they were all trying to gain attention by associating themselves with Lu Yuan.

So now fans and casual observers are preparing to give Lu Yuan'an another title.

How could Hunan TV not be tempted by his completed drama, "The Journey of Flower"?

Pinocchio is out of the question, but the Journey of Flower must be secured.

After lengthy negotiations, Hunan TV purchased the broadcasting rights for 1.56 million yuan, while the original version cost 9300 million yuan.

The exclusive streaming rights for some of the three major platforms were bundled together for a total price of 1.5 million yuan, which of course included compensation for "Pinocchio".

The original version had an exclusive five-year premiere rights on iQiyi for 7500 million yuan.

Of course, the broadcasting rights sold to them are all domestic; as for the foreign rights, Yujian Entertainment will handle the rest itself.

The domestic broadcasting rights for "The Journey of Flower" sold for 3.06 million yuan.

The original version of this drama had an investment of 1.05 million yuan, and the male and female leads in the office earned nearly 2600 million yuan or more.

Lu Yuan and Liu Yifei are certainly incomparable to those two; even their cameo appearances would have reached roughly the same number.

After all, the company isn't just invested in by the two of them; there's also Chen Jinfei, so the friendly price should still be offered.
