Chapter 569 569. Celebration Banquet

The sales volume of "New Heroes of Martial Arts" in January finally settled at 520,000 sets.

This is basically the final sales volume of this game. In fact, in the first half of the month, this game has achieved a breakthrough of 400,000 sets, but it has basically achieved market saturation. The number of people who bought the game in the next half month also fell sharply. In the last week of this month, only 20,000 sets were sold.

According to the evaluation team of Fanxing Entertainment, the final sales volume of this game should be around 550,000 sets. In addition to pre-stocking 10,000 sets of physical copies, the company stopped the production line of the game. When these physical copies were sold out, the remaining ones were only sold with activation codes.

520,000 sets, in the international market, this number is nothing, it can only be said to be ordinary, but in China, especially in the currently depressed Chinese game circle, this is definitely a miraculous sales volume, even exceeding the "Chinese Paladin IV" which was said to be a big hit at the beginning of the year.

The success of "New Heroes of Martial Arts" has also stimulated many game manufacturers to pay attention to Chinese stand-alone games again.

For example, Dayu Group, which used to launch a stand-alone project every 2-3 years, announced the launch of "Chinese Paladin 5" in just half a year, and officially entered the production stage. Yao Xian, who had not appeared in the game for a long time, was appointed as the producer of the project.

As soon as this news came out, many fans of Chinese Paladin were excited. Everyone told each other about it, and they were so happy and excited. After all, for players, having a new game to play is the best thing.

In addition, there was news that Beishanju would also restart the "Swordsman" series.

Although it has not been officially announced, it is said that it was spread by an insider, and it is very credible. I don't know how many martial arts game fans burst into tears with this news.

However, the studios under Nie Wei's game company were the most stimulated.

The first to bear the brunt were Gongzhangjun and his game studio. As the only A-level studio designated by Nie Wei, their game received 12 million yuan in production funds at the beginning, which made many studios envious.

Originally, according to Gongzhangjun's plan, this new game planned by himself could be considered qualified if it could sell 200,000 copies, and it would be an excellent result if it could sell 300,000 copies.

But now it is different.

Xu Canglong sold 520,000 copies with a production fee of 5 million. If he sold less than Xu Canglong with a production fee of 12 million, would it be justified?

Gongzhangjun was under great pressure for a while.

Other game studios were also working hard to make their own works. This time, Xu Canglong's direct net profit exceeded 3 million with "New Wulin Qunxia Zhuan". For a game producer, this is definitely a huge income, and this income has really stimulated other game producers, not to mention the benefits issued by the head office, which can make other game producers jealous.

For a while, dozens of game studios under the game company all worked hard.

But the game production process is obviously not something that can be done overnight. So far, only Xu Canglong's work has passed the review of Nie Wei's game company, and the fastest progress of the other games is expected to take at least two months.

Moreover, after the game is completed, it needs to be tested, optimized, and the bugs in the game need to be found. This takes time. Nie Wei does not want to bring players a semi-finished product, so that players can find bugs while playing, which will only destroy the players' experience of the game.

In Nie Wei's view, at least the game should be tested twice and more than 95% of the bugs should be found to be a qualified work, so that it can be officially released and put on the Star Game Platform.

The same is true for "New Wulin Qunxia Zhuan". After one month of release, players only found two small bugs during the game, and they did not affect the game process. This is also a point that has been well received by players. They feel that Heluo Studio is really making games with heart, giving players a very good experience.

Compared to the influence of "New Martial Arts Heroes" which is only in the gaming circle, Nie Wei is more concerned about Alan who is far away in Japan. Her new album has also been released recently.

This album named "Diverse Alan" was immediately sought after by Japanese fans as soon as it was released.

Within a week, 1.2 million copies were sold! It broke the record of foreign singers' single-week sales in the Japanese music circle, and also made Alan the first Chinese female singer to top the Japanese Oricon weekly chart.

And if this trend continues, I'm afraid she will have a great chance of topping the annual chart.

Alan's album sold so well, in addition to the high quality of the songs, the main reason is the plan planned by Nie Wei. This is an album "created" with fans. Fans have placed extraordinary feelings on it from the beginning, and this album was also the most eye-catching plan in the Japanese entertainment industry during that period of time.

A full month of high exposure made Alan gain enough popularity and reputation, and also laid a solid foundation for this miraculous album sales.

Avex's general manager Katsuhito Matsuura called Nie Wei specifically to congratulate him. During the half-hour conversation, he expressed his admiration for Nie Wei's talent no less than five times. In his opinion, 70% of the success of this plan was due to Nie Wei.

Colleague Matsuura Katsuhito also implicitly proposed that Nie Wei could create the theme song for the next album of Avex's queen Hamaki Ayumu, and even serve as the chief producer of Hamaki Ayumu's next album.

Being able to produce albums for the three major Japanese queens is equivalent to acknowledging that Nie Wei is already a recognized top producer in Japan, but faced with this question, Nie Wei chose to refuse.

The cooperation between him and Avex is limited to Alan. Even if it is Hamaki Ayumu, one of the three major Japanese queens, it has no meaning for Nie Wei. With this time, he might as well make one more movie or TV series.

Matsuura Katsuhito was not surprised by Nie Wei's refusal, but he was inevitably a little regretful. However, he soon sorted out his emotions and invited Nie Wei to attend the celebration banquet for Alan's album sales.

This time Nie Wei did not refuse. Alan's celebration banquet will have to wait until a month later. Nie Wei can completely spare a day to support Alan. After all, Alan is really doing well this time. In this day and age, a female singer who can sell more than one million albums in Asia is enough to earn Alan the title of queen.

At least now in China, some media have called Alan the new queen of the music industry or the Asian queen. In the past, some media also called Alan this way, but the word "small" was always added before the queen. However, this time, the word "small" has been directly removed by the media. Alan's achievements can already bear the weight of the "queen crown".

And not only is Avex Japan going to hold a celebration banquet, in fact, in China, Wang Zhonglei and Nie Wei are also discussing holding a celebration banquet.

After all, Alan said that she is a signed female singer of Huayi Records. She can get such an achievement, so the company must show some appreciation.

Not only is it going to hold a celebration banquet, but in addition, the company also funded Alan to buy a Ferrari F430 red supercar worth more than four million, which means that Alan can continue to be popular.

In addition, the company also purchased an apartment worth tens of millions for Alan in Nie Wei's newly developed real estate.

There are also Alan's nanny car, the upgrade of the assistant team, etc., which can be said to be a treatment that only a handful of female stars can enjoy in the company.

Of course, these can only be fulfilled after Alan returns to China.

And within this month, Nie Wei finally completed his adaptation of the new movie. This movie, which originated from the Korean movie "Uncle", was Nie Wei's next choice.

The combination of a lone agent, an uncle and a loli, and violence against violence are selling points. This movie is not a so-called positive energy movie, but it will give people a hearty pleasure.

Moreover, Nie Wei is very fond of the commercial elements contained in this movie. There are many selling points. I believe that it will attract many audiences to the cinema, and the box office of the movie is definitely guaranteed. The most important thing is that this is a very pure man's play. The role is more charming after Nie Wei's adaptation, which meets Nie Wei's requirements for the role.

After Nie Wei finished adapting the script, he submitted it to the company, and the crew's preparation work began a day later.

This time, Nie Wei received 20 million production funds from the company. Luo Yuan was the producer, and Nie Wei wrote, directed and acted by himself.

There is also the issue of casting. Nie Wei chose two young actors for the role of the little girl. One is Shu Chang's cousin Song Zuer, and the other is Guan Xiaotong, who once missed a chance to work with him.

As for the remaining actors, Nie Wei gave full authority to Luo Yuan to help her, the producer, increase her prestige in the crew.

Less than a day after the crew's preparations were confirmed, and even before the film project was successfully noted in the bureau, the news that Nie Wei was going to shoot a new movie and play the leading role spread in the circle.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a commotion in the entire mainland entertainment circle.

After all, this is Nie Wei, who has never failed since his debut, and is the Nie Wei who has shot three movies that all broke 100 million.

In the eyes of many people, getting on Nie Wei's movie is equivalent to getting on the high-speed train to success. Soon, Luo Yuan and Luo Kai's mobile phones were bombarded with calls from a bunch of people who wanted to get in touch with the crew.

Especially Luo Yuan, hearing that this strong woman holds most of the casting rights, many people want to curry favor with her and send their own actors to the crew.

Luo Yuan, who had been receiving calls all day, was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry. These people didn't even know what kind of movie Nie Wei was going to shoot, but they started to recommend their artists. They were just like the boss of a famous brand store receiving wealthy customers. They knew that the wealthy customers had money, and they put on an attitude of letting them choose.

For this reason, Luo Yuan had to explain again and again that the role would be announced in a few days, and there would be another interview at that time.

But these agents or the agency behind them naturally couldn't really abide by the rules and wait until Huayi announced the interview. After being in the circle for so long, they all understood that if they followed the rules, they would probably not get a role.

So these people wanted to treat Luo Yuan to a meal. If Luo Yuan really agreed to all of them, she would not have to spend any money on food for at least the next month, and she could have a big meal every day.

Luo Yuan naturally refused all of them, but these people didn't dare to pester Nie Wei, but they dared to pester Luo Yuan. In particular, there were a few who were just like sticky candy. Luo Yuan chose to ignore them directly, and some of them were even blacklisted.

With Hua Yi and Nie Wei backing her, Luo Yuan is not afraid of offending anyone.

Moreover, she has been a producer twice and is no longer a rookie at the beginning. She is decisive and decisive. After she blacklisted more than ten agents in one day, the number of calls for dinner and connections decreased by 90%.

These people are simply wasting their efforts in Nie Wei's eyes. To put it bluntly, there are very few outstanding roles in this movie. All the highlights are concentrated on the male protagonist and the little girl played by herself. In addition to these two roles, there is only one killer role and a gangster boss role that have potential for development.

The crew's preparation work takes a certain amount of time, and with Luo Yuan as the producer, Nie Wei can be said to be very relaxed, and most of the work is left to Luo Yuan.

After all, the producer is the chief steward of the crew. Of course, it is not ruled out that Nie Wei wants to be lazy.

During this period of time, Alan's album in Japan has sold two million copies, and the sales of this album in China have also exceeded 500,000. Both places have achieved great success, and the celebration banquet must be prepared.

On the day when Alan's album broke through two million sales in Japan, Avex announced that it would hold a grand celebration banquet for Alan the next day. As the music producer of Alan's album, Nie Wei was naturally listed as a key invitation by Avex.

In order to invite Nie Wei, Avex even chartered a plane to specifically welcome Nie Wei to Japan.

Nie Wei recently left all the preparation work for the crew to Luo Yuan, and he happened to have a lot of free time, so he readily accepted Avex's invitation.

The news that Avex chartered a plane to take Nie Wei to Japan quickly spread on the domestic Internet after Nie Wei boarded the plane, and was hotly discussed by many netizens.

"Nie Wei is awesome. As an artist, he is definitely the No. 1 in my heart."

"I admire artists like Nie Wei who are also good at going abroad. Do yourself a favor!"

"Nie Wei is so amazing that he can get Avex to charter a plane to pick him up. The Japanese must be shocked by Nie Wei's talent from the bottom of their hearts, haha."

Nie Wei couldn't see the discussion of netizens. After boarding the luxurious Gulfstream G550 specially arranged by Avex for Nie Wei, Nie Wei drank a glass of red wine, asked the stewardess for a blanket, and then fell asleep, completely ignoring the beautiful stewardesses who kept flirting with Nie Wei since boarding the plane.

As a business jet, its speed is much faster than that of ordinary civil airliners. It only took two hours for the plane to land in Tokyo.

Thanks to Qiu Ye Liang Yue and 0773 for their reward support.
