Chapter 1022 Strike while the iron is hot
Sakurai Mami thought she had just gotten up and had auditory hallucinations.
Li Rui smiled and said, "The number of downloads of the "Super Vitality Sisters" expression set yesterday was about 600,000 times. If each expression is divided into 50 island nations according to each set of expressions, the creator can be divided into 30 million island nations, that's right.
”
Sakurai Mami opened her mouth wide and her face was full of incredible feelings: "Can the expressions I draw be divided into 30 million?"
She finally understood why Li Rui gave her half of the copyright as a gift that day.
That is not an ordinary gift, it is countless flying all over the sky that can get all kinds of brand-name bags and money!
"How did you do it?" Sakurai Mami was still a little incredible. "Why would there be so much money?"
"It was saved by the people of the island country, because your works are very popular," Li Rui said.
Sakurai Mami covered her chest and gasped: "Oh my God, so much money! I have to calm down, I can't accept it!"
In the island country, cartoonists seem to be a very enviable profession, and they also have super high income role models like Eiichiro Oda and Akira Toriyama, but the income of ordinary cartoonists is actually not high.
Taking Mami Sakurai as an example, she can now get a reward of 10,000 yuan when drawing a page of the original painting "Super Energetic Sisters". She draws 17 pages per week, and the royalty is 170,000 yuan.
This money is not her only. She also has to hire three assistants to assist in the production. Each assistant earns an hourly salary of 1,000 yuan, and the cost of hiring an assistant alone will be more than 100,000 yuan in a week.
Coupled with the loss and other expenses of various painting materials, Sakurai Mamik's weekly surplus is only 20,000 to 30,000 yuan per week, which is even better than working in a convenience store.
Most cartoonists are in similar situations to Sakurai Mami. If they lived on the original drawing fee alone, they would have starved to death.
The main sources of income of cartoonists are royalty income from single books and animation copyright income.
"Super Energetic Sisters" sold more than 150,000 copies, each priced at 600 Komoto. Sakurai Mami earned 7 million yuan in income through royalties.
In addition, she also received copyright income from adapting animations, which was about 10 million yuan.
This is the total income she earned after painting comics for several years, and the amount was less than 20 million yuan.
And I helped Ring draw a set of expressions casually, and the earnings of 30 million yuan a day are not exciting. Can Sakurai Mami not be excited?
Li Rui smiled secretly when she saw her look like this.
The share fee of "Super Energetic Sisters" is the gift that Li Rui gave to Sakurai Mami.
The first three emoticons on the emoticon store are given free gifts, and ntr company will subsidize creators in proportion.
Li Rui had long foreseen that these free expressions would be hot, and naturally the fat water would not flow to outsiders, and it would be so beautiful to Sakurai.
Next, he will use the 30 million yuan share to make a gimmick to attract more creators to join the Ring expression creation team, and first block the line's path from the creative stage.
This is what Li Rui learned from the ancients, "Buy Horse Bones with a Thousands of Gold", and spending money on his own women is like killing two birds with one stone!
The new expressions, including Brown Bear and Connie Rabbit, which are listed on the emoticon store, will adopt a paid download mode. Each set of expressions costs 250 yuan. For each set sold, the creator can get a share of 75 yuan.
With successful precedents in line in previous life, Li Rui believes that this practice will definitely become a source of wealth for ring!
He was thinking, and his warm body suddenly pounced on him.
"Um?"
"I want to thank you very much!" Sakurai Mami expressed her gratitude to Li Rui with practical actions.
Li Rui felt that his soul was about to fly into the sky, and then he thought of a bad idea, touched her ear and muttered softly.
Sakurai Mami blushed. According to her previous personality, she would never allow Li Rui to do things like this. However, when she thought of the 30 million share, she nodded shyly.
Li Rui was overjoyed, and the quilt was pulled, and the sky and the earth...
It was only half past ten that the two of them had settled down, one went to shoot advertisements and the other went to the company.
It was already eleven o'clock when Li Rui entered the door, Zhou Lin came up and said in an excited voice: "It's going to be a million soon, it's going to be a million!"
Li Rui said in confusion: "Didn't it exceed one million last night?"
Zhou Lin said: "It's not the total number of users, it's the number of new users that have been updated yesterday to the present!"
"Ah?" Li Rui was shocked.
On the first day of the update, users enthusiastically downloaded it, and it was normal for the new ones to explode. It was the second day. Is the rise still continuing?
Seeing the latest data, Li Rui was also shocked.
Eighty-nine thousand!
This is the new download volume updated from 10:00 yesterday morning to 10:00 today, with 24 hours of 20:00.
No wonder Zhou Lin said he wanted one million. His meaning was not that the total number of users exceeded one million, but that the number of new users added after the update is about to exceed one million!
Li Rui smiled. There was so much good news today.
He thought about it and asked Zhou Lin to call SoftBank Takahashi.
"Mr. Gao Qiao, how are SoftBank thinking? Oh, are you still reporting layer by layer?"
"I understand, I understand that SoftBank, as a large company, has a very strict process system. I just informed me that because the updated version of Ring is very popular, in order to meet user needs, we need to launch the payment system as soon as possible. If SoftBank cannot cooperate, we will consider first
and suica, pasmo or edy to issue small payment ic cards…”
"Haha, the number of new users added in 24 hours is only 890,000, and the total number of users has just exceeded 1.5 million. It's really pitiful compared to SoftBank's number of users!"
"Oh, you have to respond to your superiors right away? Well, okay, can you reply to me before noon tomorrow at the latest?"
After making a phone call, Zhou Lin made an OK gesture to Li Rui and said with a smile: "You guessed it is too accurate. When SoftBank heard that we have added so many users in one day, it immediately expressed that it would report directly to Sun Mingyi and promote the cooperation process as soon as possible!
”
Li Rui knew that cooperation was always the same.
One million and a half million users are a group that cannot be underestimated in any country or anywhere. Moreover, the user base of Ring is mainly young people with certain consumption capacity and willingness, which is also very in line with SoftBank’s needs.
Now, Ring still needs to actively seek SoftBank cooperation, and will be rejected by O.
In two years, no, in another year.
When ring users exceed 10 million or even 100 million, SoftBank takes the initiative to find ring to cooperate, and ring refuses!
