Chapter 319: Re-Equipped Liu Hongmin wrote novels in the World of Warcraft series. In addition to earning royalties, he also wanted to develop his own Warcraft series of games. The Warcraft series of games is a cash cow. Whether it is the Warcraft series or World of Warcraft, they are all time-honored good games. In terms of making money, World of Warcraft is of course better. However, the most profitable are the MOBA type games derived from Warcraft. Whether it is DOTA2 or League of Legends, they are veritable gold mines. Unfortunately, current technology is not capable of developing these games, otherwise Liu Hongmin would have become the richest man in the country by relying on these games. Acquiring a game company is a good way to prepare for a rainy day. First, use the content of Dark Portal to make a game. If these people are not capable enough, then acquire Blizzard and let the Blizzard team make the game. After finishing Twilight Trial, Liu Hongmin began to think about the script of Source Code 4. In the end, Liu Hongmin decided to focus on the crisis of finding a malignant virus. In a city in Africa, a group of terrorists attacked an American laboratory and stole three bottles of a malignant virus. As for why the vicious virus appeared in the American laboratory, it is unknown. During the firefight, a bottle of the malignant virus was broken and spread to an entire block. The rescuers could not enter the virus area for a long time, so they could only extract the source code program from a survivor and rely on the source code to find the location of the remaining two malignant viruses. In this way, both the scene and the intention are revealed. During the search, the protagonist encountered chaotic civilian attacks, was stopped by the police, and wasted time in the shelter several times. After finally leaving the shelter, he was chased by terrorists. Finally, after much hardship, he found the location of the two vicious viruses.
After finishing writing, Liu Hongmin went over it several times, made some minor adjustments, and then sent it to Xu Xiaoming. Source Code 4 will definitely not be released during this year's Christmas season, so Wang Yaowei has tentatively scheduled it for the summer season. This year's Christmas season has once again become the target of major companies, and Stephen Chow is currently filming The Legend of Drunken Master, preparing to hit the Christmas season. In recent years, Zhou Xingxing's nonsensical comedy has gradually become popular and he has gradually begun to control the crew. After working with him, many directors said they did not want to continue working with him. This made Zhou Xingxing more lonely. If it were not for his girlfriend Zhu Ying's company, he might suffer from depression. The Beijing branch is also working hard, and "Forever Lost My Love" has entered the shooting stage. Because of Liu Hongmin's urging, Wang Shuo's speed has increased a lot, and he and Feng Xiaogang finished the script after the Chinese New Year. Liu Hongmin rested for two days and began writing the second part of "The Matrix Reloaded". The outline of "Reloaded" has been worked out, and the relevant terms have been almost understood in the first part "The Matrix World", so Liu Hongmin's writing speed will not be too slow next time. Sure enough, a month later, "Reloaded" was completed. Liu Hongmin sent the manuscript to Richard, who was very happy. "Mr. Liu, you write really fast. It took less than two months for you to finish writing Twilight Trials, and you've already finished Reloaded." Liu Hongmin: "Richard, how is the sales of Matrix World now?" "Very good!" Richard said, "The Matrix World has sold nearly 20 million copies. According to our estimate, it will eventually sell 25 million copies." Liu Hongmin grinned. Twenty-five million copies, that was a bit more than expected! Richard couldn't help but laugh when he heard the grin. "Mr. Liu, this data is already very good. The Matrix series lacks entertainment compared to the World of Warcraft series, so it is normal that the sales volume is lower than that of World of Warcraft. Besides, the sales volume of 25 million copies is already very good. There are very few novels in the market that can sell more than 10 million copies, and science fiction novels are even rarer." Liu Hongmin certainly knew what Richard said, but he wanted to make money, so he naturally hoped to sell as much as possible. "By the way, Mr. Liu, it seems someone wants to buy the copyright of World of Warcraft." Liu Hongmin was stunned. "Who wants to buy it? Don't you know that I will give it to MGM even if I shoot a TV series or a movie?" Richard explained: "It's not a film company, it's an animation company. They think the story of World of Warcraft is great and want to buy the copyright to make an animation." Liu Hongmin thought about it and realized that Sun Lu had no interest in the story of World of Warcraft. They would rather make "Young Justice Bao" than World of Warcraft. "If the price is right, the copyright of animation can also be sold. However, the copyright of animated feature films is not included. This will be left to MGM to invest in."
Richard: "I will convey your message, but the price will be very low." "Yes, as long as it meets my psychological expectations." The copyright of World of Warcraft's animation is worth a few million dollars at most, which is better than nothing for Liu Hongmin. However, Liu Hongmin will still send people to check the character images because it will affect the surrounding business. Most of the peripherals were handed over to Transformers Company for operation. Like Transformers, they signed a purchase contract with Pengcheng Toy Factory. The market development in recent years was similar. In 92, Transformers Company brought nearly million US dollars in turnover and made a profit of over million US dollars. Pengcheng Toy Factory also made hundreds of millions of RMB in profits, and Liu Hongmin also received tens of millions of RMB in copyright fees. Most of these tens of millions of RMB were donated by Liu Hongmin to poverty alleviation and the traditional Chinese medicine industry. They benefited more than a dozen poor counties, more than 100,000 poor people, and trained more than 300 grassroots traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. Because of his donations, Liu Hongmin has been named one of the top ten people who moved China and one of the top ten outstanding youth representatives for many years. In particular, the Top Ten People Who Moved China was established specifically for Liu Hongmin. Xiyuan has always remembered Liu Hongmin's contributions over the years. Although it is a pity that he cannot enter politics, it still gives him feedback in terms of honor. Liu Hongmin doesn't care about these awards. Just like the awards he has won in the literary world, he has never gone to receive them. At first, I thought he didn't have time. Later, I found out that he really didn't care, so I stopped giving him awards. Only awards like the Top Ten Touching People were still given to him year after year, and the trophies were even delivered directly to his door. "Mr. Liu, when will we be ready to start writing the third part?" Liu Hongmin thought for a moment and said, "If nothing else happens, I will finish writing it before July." "Then I will wait for good news!" After hanging up the phone, Liu Hongmin picked up the documents Li Lizhen sent in. He put aside the documents about the company and first picked up the sales table of his novels in the mainland in the past two years. (End of this chapter)
