The Fantasy Entertainment Empire

Another day, He Zhengfeng was woken up by his mobile phone.

Looking at the time, it's about seven o'clock in the morning.

Today is a day off, no class. In the past at this time, He Zhengfeng was always supplementing his sleep.

But today is a bit different.

The first disc of "Amber Sword", about two episodes in, was released. And he, earlier, had already made an appointment with Qinnan Chanel to buy discs together today.

Suppressing the drowsiness, he got up.

To be honest, he is not interested in buying any discs. As a Chinese, he really doesn't have this habit.

What's more, discs are really expensive and not cost-effective. The price is more than 7,000 yen, and it hurts to buy it.

However, for the sake of my sister, what can I do?

How can it be so good to lick a dog!

He felt a little sad, but when he saw such a lovely Qinnan Channai more than half an hour later, all those sad emotions disappeared.

"Good morning He Jun." The girl was already waiting here.

"Good morning, Chanel." He Zhengfeng said hello, and walked away quickly, feeling a little ashamed in his heart, that he came later than the girl, it was too impolite.

However, he did not expect that Chanel would care so much about the work "Amber".

After the two greeted each other, they went straight to the destination, chatting about "Amber Sword" and "Dimension Entertainment" all the way.

Since the last time, a girl likes to watch "Fantasy of the Three Kingdoms", but as a Chinese, he didn't even know it, so he worked hard to make up for this knowledge.

After all, he is a Chinese, and it is definitely more convenient for foreigners to look up relevant information from domestic channels.

Therefore, there are quite a lot of things that he can use as talking points.

However, when the two of them arrived at the place, what they saw made them choke back all their words.

He Zhengfeng exclaimed: "This...is there too many people?"

On the other hand, Chanel was just a little surprised and then returned to normal.

"I knew I should have come sooner..."

He Zhengfeng was a little embarrassed, he came a little later than Chanel in the morning, although he was not late compared to the agreed time.

"Then let's..." Seeing the crowds of people queuing up, He Zhengfeng thought about buying it next time, and today he just took the opportunity to ask the girl out to have a meal or watch a movie or something.

"Then let's go to line up!" Chanel didn't give him too many chances, even though there were many people, the girl still walked up with great interest, stood at the end of the line, and kept waving at him.

He Zhengfeng sighed, what else can we do? Let's line up together.

...

Li Xiang, who was sent out for a field visit, told Li Zerui what she had seen and heard.

The person in charge of "Dimension Japan" was quite excited after hearing Lixiang's report.

I initially estimated the disc sales of "Sword of Amber", and hoped that the first volume would sell more than 5,000, which would be great.

However, from the looks of it now, it seems that we can expect even higher results.

Seven thousand? Eight thousand? Is it possible to hit over 10,000?

In Japan, the single-volume sales of discs can exceed 10,000, which is a very good achievement.

As the saying goes, five hundred blood pounces, one or two thousand is guaranteed, and five thousand can look forward to a sequel...

As for disc sales exceeding 10,000, if "Amber Sword" can achieve it, it will almost enter the top 100 disc sales in Japan.

This refers to the entire historical ranking list. The first place is the famous "Spirited Away".

And works with a sales volume of about 10,000, such as "Magic Forbidden Book Catalogue", "Insect Master", "Blue Exorcist", etc., are also relatively well-known works.

What's more, the domestic disc market in Japan is getting more and more sluggish. The entire market is shrinking, and life is not easy.

It would be really remarkable if they could achieve sales of over 10,000 discs within such a market.

Li Zerui didn't have to wait too long, and the relevant sales statistics came out soon.

At present, the sales volume of the first volume of "Sword of Amber" has exceeded 7,000, which perfectly achieved the predetermined goal.

Although this number may not seem particularly high, you must know that the sales have just started, and there is still room for further improvement in this result.

At least, in Japan, it is no problem for "Amber" to surpass "Working Cells" in terms of disc sales.

As for whether it can really be tens of thousands, it is another matter.

But Li Zerui himself is full of confidence in this.

...

With the victorious songs of victory played in all aspects, 'Dimension Japan' is still moving around.

Compared with domestic countries, Japan has done a very good job in animation, audio-visual products and even all copyright protection.

I have to say that this is indeed what they did well, making the living environment of 'content' more comfortable.

If you can make money by making good works, of course, more and better works can be produced.

For them, if you want to watch an excellent animation, you can either watch it on a pay TV station or buy a disc. If you want to find a pirated version, it is very difficult, and the living space for pirated versions is very small.

This not only makes expensive genuine discs profitable, but also makes the development of derivative products and peripheral products more valuable.

Even further, due to the sluggish disc market, coupled with the original intention of many Japanese animation productions, part of it may be to stimulate the sales of the original work, which is of little significance to "Amber". Therefore, benefits such as derivative copyrights may be a very important part of improving the commercial performance of "Amber Sword" in Japan.

With the popularity of TV broadcasts and the sales of discs being very good, Li Zerui also took the initiative in negotiating various commercial copyright authorizations, so he could negotiate prices.

At the same time, he confidently wrote in the report he will submit to his immediate superior, President Ye Jiayi, in the near future:

"...Our work has achieved great success in Japan, with excellent commercial performance in all aspects, and has aroused widespread discussion in Japan."

"About the tens of millions of business revenue goals we have set, judging from the current situation, the difficulty of completing them has become very small, and it is expected to reach at least about 20 million."

"Next, our job is to strive to continue to increase the commercial income of the work to a higher level, and try to advance to 30 million!"
