My Cartoonist Strategy
Chapter 104 Radio Drama
"What do you need the magazine to do for "Y's"?" Song Tai asked.
"I will not say it for the second promotion, because I am not sure if I can enter the second stage of the comic festival. As for the first promotion, my request is not difficult. "Y's" will release a radio drama." Shen Xin said.
"Radio drama?"
The other four people were all stunned. It was unexpected that Shen Xin wanted to use radio dramas to promote "Y's".
Radio dramas are also known as broadcast dramas or sound effects dramas. As the name implies, audio-based dramas are somewhat similar to audio novels, but there are certain differences from audio novels.
First of all, the radio drama is mainly based on dialogue. Different roles are voiced by different people. If you want to achieve the best effect, you need to invite professional voice actors. In addition, there are also sound effects.Probably equivalent to a series or animation that can't see the picture.
Audio novels are more narration, and usually only one person reads.
Secondly, the radio drama will modify the original work, and may also add new plots, while the audio novel is more faithful to the original work, and sometimes even typos can be read.
Yan Fei pondered a little and immediately understood Shen Xin's thoughts.
Love comics like "Y's" are still quite suitable for launching radio dramas.As long as the seiyuu has a certain strength, the emotions between the male and female protagonists can be transmitted through the sound.
In the same way, some suspenseful comics can also choose radio dramas, especially in the middle of the night, with a weird background sound, so that the audience can feel the immersive feeling.
But hot-blooded comics like "Hunting Abyss" are not suitable, because many fighting pictures and the appearance of monsters are hard to imagine just by listening to the sound. It is not as direct as the animation.
In addition, radio dramas do not require the production of pictures, the cost is lower than that of animations, and the production cycle is relatively short.
As a cost, the propaganda effect of radio dramas is far from animation.
Shen Xin's choice should be helpless.
"The magazine can cooperate." Song Tai nodded.
Song Ren is also very rare without objection, but the look of Shen Xin is very strange-is this guy stupid?How much does it cost to produce a radio drama?
"Mr. President, I haven't finished speaking yet." Shen Xin waved his hands again and again.
"Don't you say that radio drama is the first promotion you asked for?" Song Ren was surprised by Song Tai's previous warning.
"Yes, but I have a little demand for the production of radio dramas." Shen Xin looked innocent.
Song Ren patiently looked at Shen Xin, feeling a little unhappy.
"So what are your requirements?" Song Tai asked.
"First of all, the voice actors need to find well-known voice actors, especially the voice of Iori, which must be the hottest in recent months. Second, although "Y's" has been published in two volumes, the length is still too short. I hope the magazine can Find a writer and write some original plot. Of course, it is best to have a certain reputation."
"Hey, Teacher Shen, have you considered asking the hottest voice actors and well-known writers, how much does it cost?" Song Ren couldn't help but knock on the table.
"This is not a question I considered. I only know that this condition does not affect the normal development of the magazine. Right, President?" Shen Xin asked Song Tai.
Song Tai touched the scum on his left hand, tapped his index finger on the table, and pondered for two or three minutes before he nodded and said, "As the signature comic of "New World", I am qualified to make these requests, and I will try my best to find them."
Yan Fei glanced at Shen Xin, only to find that Shen Xin was smiling.Based on her understanding of Shen Xin, he should have something to say.
"Mr. Shen, shouldn't you ask?" Song Tai looked solemn.
Shen Xin rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed, "Actually... I have another small request."
"Huh?" Song Tai's face tightened, how come?
"Cough...Mr. Shen,
"I also want to say, but wasn't it just interrupted by the assistant to the president just now?" Shen Xin explained.
"you……"
Song Ren patted the table, and then saw Song Tai's eyes, only to endure.
"I hope the radio version of "Y's" will be available in digital version and free download. Don't release the physical version."
"How is it possible? Do you want publishers and magazines to drink the northwest wind? All free? How do we make money?" Song Ren rose at the table and flushed.
The editor-in-chief also quickly stood up, "Song Shao ran out of anger, and these are not impossible to talk about."
"Editor, I still think the digital version is better." Shen Xin said.
"Mr. Shen, providing free downloads, certainly no company is willing to accept this list, and it will really cost you money." The editor-in-chief frowned, and he saw Shen Xin for the first time today, only to find that Shen Xin's temper was so stubborn.
"Yes, there must be no money. The sales of "Y's" will also be greatly reduced." Song Ren also took the opportunity to say.
Yan Fei rubbed her forehead. The condition proposed by Shen Xin was bolder than she thought. Will the president really agree?
The meeting room fell into silence, and everyone's eyes were on Song Tai.
Song Tai closed her eyes and placed her fingers across her in front of her for a long time.
Song Ren's index finger tapped on the table, a little impatient, and his brows gradually twisted together.
About five or six minutes later, Song Tai opened his eyes and his eyes fell on Shen Xin.
"I know. However, in what form the produced radio drama can be downloaded for free, I have to make the final decision."
"Dad, how can you agree? It will cost a lot of money?" Song Ren scratched his head anxiously.
"Shut up. You just listen to it with your ears." Song Tai stared at either of Song's eyes and then looked at Shen Xin.
Shen Xin lowered his head and pondered for a long time, and finally nodded, "I know. Then please, President."
"Well. Voice actors and authors, I will talk in person. Also, before October, I will be responsible for the single book of "Y's" personally. Teacher Shen, is that all right?" Song Tai asked Shen Xin.
"Trouble the president. If "Y's" can enter the second stage, I hope to discuss the promotion of "Y's" from July to October before June." Shen Xin said.
"I look forward to achieving better results." Song Tai stood up and shook hands with Shen Xin.
The first meeting between the two was over.
When he came out of the meeting room, Shen Xin took a breath. He said so much, but he was also very nervous.
Before traversing, he chatted and chatted with the editor of the website at most.Like today, this is the first time I have interviewed a company leader directly.The result was good, reaching his best expectations.
"How do you think of the radio drama?" Yan Fei whispered when she left the meeting room more than ten meters away.
""Y's" is greatly restricted, I have to find another way, radio drama is a better entry point." Shen Xin said.
"What do you mean by a different approach to radio drama?" the editor asked.
Shen Xin laughed and said nothing.
"Hey, Shen Xin, will your main goal be seiyuu and writer?" Yan Fei tapped her hand and came up with the key. "Shengyu is famous, and the more popular the writer, the more "Y's" The greater the promotion effect of, you want to attract their fans to "Y's"."
"Yes." Shen Xin nodded slightly, which is also a kind of alternative "drainage".
