MTL - I Make Games To Scare Crying Players-Chapter 117 No intention of getting involved in the entertainment industry
Chapter 117 Unintentionally set foot in the entertainment industry
Meng Shu turned on the speakerphone and poured himself a glass of water.
In the phone, Mr. Zhang still spoke tirelessly.
[Mr. Meng, your micro-movie is now popular, popular and has a good reputation. If you don’t strike while the iron is hot, it will bury this work of art. Now many people on the Internet say that your short films are not enough to watch, and they hope to make them into movies or TV series. ]
[I know you're busy, so we're providing staff. Sky City Films has been established for more than 30 years, and there are many popular artists under it. Do you know Liao Xiaoxiao? It was the starring role of the TV series "The Pose of the Fallen City". Also our artists. "The Pose of the Alluring City" was also funded by us, so you can trust us with the copyright of the film. ]
[As for the director, I also have several capable directors who have worked with me. Such as the director of "War Crimes" and "Evolution". The director of "Burst Potential" and "Progress" and so on. ]
Meng Shu didn't show much emotion when he heard this.
He took a sip of water and clicked on the scene element project file sent by Xia Nianzhen last night. Watch and respond.
"Mr. Zhang, I am very grateful for your attention, and I am very glad that you can appreciate this short film. But as I just said, I have no idea of making a film for the time being. The copyright is not going to be sold, I hope you can understand."
The other end of the phone froze for a moment, and then became curious.
[Mr. Meng, you refused before we even negotiated the price. This is really not in line with the rules. Do you have a choice? And I don't understand, your short film has a very high topic popularity, why not strike while the iron is hot? If it is made into a movie, it will definitely be famous. ]
Why.?
Of course I don’t want you to write random stories for the box office.
With the current horror market and your understanding of horror culture, can you make any good stories?
"The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" is in front of you, can you learn the techniques from it?
Looking for some popular traffic to shoot W-FBC-0087?
Don't talk about love just by patting.
In this dark stairwell, who can bear it?
That ruined not only the reputation of my only game, but also the Federal Bureau of Control and supernatural anomalies that were shaped by the four games.
Would I not know how topical the short film is?
But my original intention is to build momentum for the next game, not to sell copyrights!
Meng Shu shook his head inwardly, but there was no expression on his face.
"Mr. Zhang, how about this. Give me some time to think about what to do. I'm very busy recently, and I don't have time to take care of this matter. I hope you can give me some time, thank you."
Mr. Zhang on the other end of the phone froze for a moment, a little resentful.
Apparently, he also knew he was a little too far.
[This. Since you have said so, Mr. Meng, I can't keep disturbing you. Please think about it carefully, can you do it in these two days? After thinking about it, just call this number, I will be there anytime. ]
"Okay, I will contact you, Mr. Zhang."
[Then wait for your call, Mr. Meng. ]
After hanging up the phone, Meng Shu breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back on the chair, and looked at the ceiling.
Things are a little bit beyond his prediction.
Whether the short film in the stairwell will be popular or not, there is no doubt before it is posted on Danmaku.com.
But what Meng Shu didn't expect was that the popularity of this movie was a bit too much.
So many people who don't play games, and people from overseas know about it.
What's even more funny is that some people even compared the short film in the stairwell with the horror movies made by other big companies on the Internet, and there was a wave of coquettish operations.
It may be precisely because of this that Meng Shu received a call from the entertainment circle, wanting to buy the film copyright of the stairwell.
To be honest, if it is in the original world. If a capitalist came to him who was still Qin Xuan at the time to buy film and television copyright, he would definitely agree without saying a word.
And will 100% delegate power, let the capital of the entertainment industry operate on its own.
Once it is successfully filmed, not only will the work become famous, but the person will also become famous.
It's double happiness, and there is still money to take.
But the end result is that film-based works may become a beast.
The most intuitive example is "Wu Qi Hua Ma".
But even so, this is still a rare opportunity in the original world!
But in this world?
He could only chuckle.
There is no need for that anymore.
Now, as Meng Shu, with a system that is no different from a cheat, he no longer needs to consider this so-called opportunity.
Although the work is famous, taking the road of film and television is the most convenient and quick way.
Because the group coverage is large, the audience is also large.
But Meng Shu, who is not short of money now, no longer needs to take the helpless thing of selling copyrights and letting others mess with his works.
He doesn't need to have a bunch of people with no experience in horror movies write the script blindly.
Of course, he may be able to act as a supervisor to control the quality of the plot throughout the process.
But in this case, he is equivalent to a transformation, and this aspect of the game will gradually fade away.
And the crew doesn't necessarily pay attention to him.
So this is not OK.
His system is a game system, the tool is a development engine that monkeys can use, and the mall is a large number of game works.
It's not a director system.
Besides, the entertainment industry is very deep.
He, Meng Shu, didn't want to go in and get wet.
Honestly, it would be nice to slowly make games in the game industry.
Be aloof from the world, try to build good relations with other manufacturers, and avoid conflicts.
Even being a business friend is better than fighting secretly in the name of competition.
He's not even planning to take his company public.
So Meng Shu rejected the request to make "The Stairwell" into a movie.
What is guaranteed is word of mouth and reputation, and it also saves a lot of trouble in the entertainment industry.
The most important thing is that his money is enough.
Don't make trouble for yourself.
If netizens want to watch this kind of short film, just shoot it next time.
Maybe next time, it will be the story of 008.
Thinking of this, Meng Shu shook his head, but he had no intention of contacting Mr. Zhang.
He sat upright and looked at Xia Nianzhen's scene file in front of the computer.
"No way, this."
On the computer screen is a sci-fi industrial scene built by Xia Nianzhen based on the concept design PPT and some original paintings.
But this scene is not sci-fi enough.
It looks very simple.
Like a very poor organization, Meng Shu shook his head.
Well, Xia Nianzhen is a girl who doesn't have a deep understanding of sci-fi style, so she can't produce the effect he wants.
But Meng Shu didn't blame Xia Nianzhen for her poor level.
In his view, a person always has a style that he is good at and not good at.
For example, some are good at the style of medieval magic and fantasy. Yes, good at Modern Warfare style. Still others, probably good at a cartoon rendering style.
In short, Meng Shu didn't think her employees were all-round talents from the beginning, and they always had their own shortcomings.
Now Xia Nianzhen's weak side has come out.
She doesn't know how to do science fiction, and the things she makes don't have that flavor.
It is definitely too late to learn now, so the way to choose the best now is to outsource part of the art resources.
Then
An art director who has enough experience and has participated in multiple works is invited to complete and fully control the sci-fi art style of the game "Control Failure".
These two days will start with chapter 84 and revise the vocabulary of the full text. Just modifying the vocabulary, the core remains unchanged. Then because of the modification of the vocabulary, some detailed descriptions will also be changed. But in short, our book is not a big problem!
