Chapter 721, "Peppa Pig" is despised!(1/2)

Li Zhifan spent a whole week at home and produced 15 episodes of "Peppa Pig", which was about two episodes a day. This speed was a shocking move in the entire animation industry. Even a large animation team could not make 15 episodes in a week, because it took a long time to make one episode from content selection to various meetings and discussions.

Only Li Zhifan, who has turned on plug-ins, can have this efficiency.

Another reason is that someone urged him later, that is Little Cherry.

She watched the first episode for three days, but after watching too much, she was eager for new stories. Every hour she asked Li Zhifan if there was a second season!

Unfortunately, although Li Zhifan had made several episodes, he had no dubbing and soundtrack. In desperation, he became wise in a hurry. Li Zhifan got all the dubbing himself, and then used the tone-tuning software to change the voice, which barely fooled Xiao Cherry over.

A new week.

Li Zhifan appeared in Dream Factory again.

In the past few days when he had not been here, "Dream Search" has been in steady production. Now two-thirds of the production has been produced in the early stage, and most of the problems have been taken. The production team even went to Mexico several times, filmed several documentaries and extracted materials from them.

After the meeting was held in "Dream Search", Li Zhifan immediately found Servo and asked him to contact several professional voice actors, and they needed to make a voice call for a job.

Servo looked at Li Zhifan blankly: "Duote? What to match?"

"I made a small video for my daughter to watch!"

Li Zhifan smiled and did not explain, "Anyway, just help me find someone, two women and two men!"

"All right!"

Servo immediately called and happened to have an animated movie in Fantasy Factory that was in the late stages, and the voice actors had already settled in, so they could just come after they were busy.

But when they come, it's already afternoon.

"Is this...animation?"

Several voice actors were surprised and felt incredible from the bottom of their hearts.

They have seen this type of cartoon before, but they were all made by TV stations in ancient times, especially the British BBC. They often made this type of cartoon. Later, the power of technology rose and the quality of cartoons became higher and higher. This type of cartoon disappeared from the market and no one did it again.

"This is for my daughter to show!"

Li Zhifan explained to several voice actors, "I hope everyone can help me, I will pay double the pay."

“Double?”

The four voice actors changed their faces at the moment, and all doubts and doubts disappeared, in return for surprises and snickers.

Although they are all behind the scenes, the dubbing actors get less money than the recording engineers. Of course, they are very eager to have a chance to earn double their salary.

So he immediately agreed to Li Zhifan very happily.

And these fifteen episodes of animation are even easier for them, and they don’t need to figure out the characters’ thoughts like those big movies, just read them out with normal dialogue.

An hour and a half later, the four of them completed the recording of these fifteen episodes, and Li Zhifan paid them a salary on the spot, and paid them twice as agreed.

"Thank you so much, my friend! If you have such a job in the future, you can find us again!"

One of the voice actors received money and hugged Li Zhifan. In his eyes, Li Zhifan was equated with the rich and had the title of "Rich Chinese".

"certainly!"

Li Zhifan smiled, "Let's do this, leave me the phone number of you four. If I need other dubbing, I will find you!"

"Oh my God, that's great!"

"I'll copy you a number, my name is Martha!"

"My name is Jerry! Man, today's cooperation is so pleasant!"

All four of them left a phone call, hoping that Li Zhifan could contact them again.

Although these four people were temporarily found, they are likely to become fixed partners in the future. After all, "Peppa Pig" has several seasons.

After getting these matches, Li Zhifan took the film back to the production room of "Dream Searching for Travels", plugged in a USB flash drive in front of his computer, and took out the 15 episodes of "Peppa Pig" with good voice to play one episode to find out if there are any other loopholes.

At this time, a staff member passed by and glanced at him and happened to see "Peppa Pig" played on Li Zhifan's computer screen. He walked over in surprise and asked, "Oh! Li, are you still watching such cartoons?"

"And!" Li Zhifan smiled and did not respond positively, "How is this animation?"

"Uh...hehe!" The staff smiled awkwardly. He thought Li Zhifan liked to watch it, so he said, "Well, it's very basic animation production, but the children must like it. Li, are you planning to show it to your daughter?"

"Yes!" said Li Zhifan, "She particularly likes this kind of cartoon."

"It's normal for a kid!"

The staff said, "This kind of simple drawing cartoon is the simplest. Our professional painters can draw it with their feet."

As soon as he said this, Li Zhifan became embarrassed. He looked back at him and said meaningfully: "This is what I drew!"

"Oh? Ah!?"

The staff was stunned, his tongue was knotted, and hesitated: "No, no, no! I don't mean that, the drawing of this animation is so good. I mean, don't look simple in simple drawings, but it's not easy to draw them well."

"I am a beginner. I have been working so much these days, so I have learned to draw such an animation!"

Li Zhifan said lightly, "I know my own level!"

"No, no! Lee, I don't mean that!"

The staff explained the more they became more and more panicked. He was saying what he said, but what he said was too inappropriate. Even if he didn't say that Li Zhifan was their boss, just saying that Li Zhifan, a beginner, could paint like this, should be encouraged or even performed.

What's more, everyone here knows Li Zhifan's ability in animation. Before he came, he was zero at all. In actual operation, the sketches he used to draw for everyone was terrible. Now they have achieved this result, they admire more from the bottom of their hearts rather than despise him.

"Okay, don't be nervous!"

Li Zhifan waved his hand, "Go! I'll look at it for a while!"

"Yeah, yeah! OK!"

The staff nodded quickly and left.

As a result, this afternoon, this hour spread throughout the production team. The production staff lined up to come and flatter Li Zhifan and flattered him for his paintings.

He even alarmed Servo, came down to watch Li Zhifan's masterpiece in person, and gave him a thumbs up.

Since Servo is here, Li Zhifan has to nag him for some things, so he asked, "Can you help me find a TV station to play these cartoons?"

"Ah? TV station?"

Servo has been the president of Fantasy Works for so many years, and has relationships in all aspects. All TV stations in the United States are their partners. They are begging to come to work with them on the door, or hope they will make an animated series and then buy it.

But Servo found it difficult to sell Li Zhifan's cartoon.

In a capitalist country like the United States, no one would buy such cartoons that can be seen as not making money at first sight, even if they are produced by the famous Fantasy Factory?

But Slvo agreed: "Okay, I'll ask you, but the price may not be too high."

"It's okay!" Li Zhifan said, "I don't care about money. As long as there is a place to broadcast it, it's fine!"

When Servo heard this, it was easy to say, so he said, "Let me do this, I will introduce you to several publishers. They have a high influence and strong channels around the world. They will also provide you with more good advice. What do you think?"

"oh?"

Li Zhifan thought for a while, "They won't let me go back to China to play after watching it?"

"I don't know this, maybe this is possible!"

Servo said, "But based on your influence and relationships in China, playing such cartoons is probably a rush to buy them, right?"

"No! I want to play it directly on foreign TV stations!"

Li Zhifan shook his head, "As for the Chinese market, I will talk about it later."

When Servo heard this, he thought to himself: You kid really have an idea, it’s obvious that you want to cheat foreign TV stations’ money!

Since Servo agreed to recommend the publisher for Li Zhifan, he no longer cared about this and took the time to go back and continue to produce the subsequent content. The first season has 52 episodes. After all of them are produced, they will be sold together.

However, in the production process, Li Zhifan doesn’t need to do it himself. There are many production teams in Dream Factory, and there are many newcomers who have just entered the industry. They can do this with just a few teams and a little money.

At the same time, Li Zhifan also plans to set up a studio in the United States, specializing in all things related to "Peppa Pig" to prepare for future promotion and publicity.

...

Three days later, Li Zhifan and the publisher introduced by Servo met.

Distributors are not artists and do not comment on the content of their works, but only comment on the value of their works. They also have various ways to sell a movie.

So even a bad movie can be cashed in the hands of the publisher, but it is just a matter of how much you make.

Those who are destined to make less money have different strategies, while those who are destined to make a lot of money may even participate in shares.

The publisher's representative is Simon, a Jewish publisher with four distribution companies, two advertising companies, and one investment company.

He will invest in videos that he is optimistic about, and will buy advertising spaces for the videos, and use advertising companies to attract advertising to make money. In terms of distribution, four distribution companies can also be distributed in different regions around the world.

After watching "Peppa Pig", Simon did not have any desire to invest. In his opinion, this is a very rough and perfunctory work. Compared with many bad movies he has watched, this "Peppa Pig" is not as good as it.

However, his professional qualities and the attractive price offered by Li Zhifan, he took over the release of this animated series.

"Li, I suggest you can put ten episodes online first. You know Youguan Internet Cafe! It is the world's largest video website. After it is released, I can help you operate and increase your popularity, and even contact the official to buy recommendation positions for you. As for TV stations, I will contact Canadian CBC, British BBC, American ABC and CW. These TV stations are all federally operated TV stations. They may be interested in your animation. If there is a certain popularity and clicks on the Internet, it will increase our bargaining chips."

Simon said a lot in one breath. He was a person who had a quick brain and immediately formulated this plan for Li Zhifan.

The CBC, BBC, ABC and CW he mentioned are all his partners who have worked with him all year round, and they are all English TV stations. They also have connections in internal film purchases. As long as the price is reasonable, they can be sold.

As for other commercial TV stations, although Simon can do it, he is worried that he will be rejected by the other party, so he doesn't mention it here that translation and production in different languages ​​in other countries is even more time-honored. Simon does not think that "Peppa Pig" can be widely paid attention to and is attracted by countries in non-English speaking areas.

Li Zhifan was not in a hurry, and took it step by step. As long as the popularity accumulates, isn’t this movie still rushing to get it?
