The Rise of Otaku

Chapter 210 Shocking Budget

Actually, the shooting had already finished two days ago, but Zhou Yu needed to shoot some other scenes to facilitate the post-editing. Advertisements, theme songs, and the thoughts of the various adventurers were all important parts of the variety show.

And after the show was over, it didn’t mean the contract was over. These twelve adventurers would have to carry on building the hype for this show by gathering audiences everywhere. In addition, there was a performing tour that little Muli, as the hostess of the show, must attend as well. The same as the other activities, this performing tour was also used to promote the show.

Starlight City did not seem to exist in the real world. Over there, it was absolutely safe. Strictly speaking, only the Starlight city and the fallen city were the real ACG world. Not only would they not be disturbed by the real world, but they would also not interact with each other, it was very peaceful.

No extreme fans, no criminals, whether it is good or evil, the positions of both cities are very clear.

However, outside the two cities, the world seemed to be very chaotic. Those lawless areas would be asked to join the Starlight city or the fallen city, like the forces in the Spring and Autumn period.

12 first-tier top idols joint concert tour, plus the hostess was also a very rare idol, little Muli, almost all the converts were fully seated. Plus the peripheral goods of each adventurer and some other items, it would not be a surprise that they would make a lot of money from it.

But since it was a tour and they had to go to other places besides Starlight City, therefore, security became a big problem. Zhou Yu sent out all the black-suited bodyguards from Luhua village, Firefly, Bubu, and Jack to ensure the safety of little Muli.

The security of Luhua village would be guarded by the king of thieves and his 20 flying bird knights. At least, there would be no problem protecting Bai Mo.

Regarding the problem in the real world.

There weren’t that many resources for Zhou Yu to use in the real world, whether “the Little Muli’s incredible maze” could succeed or not, no one could guarantee it. So should he do something about it?

While Zhou Yu was thinking, Xia Huan finally got the footage he needed from Oba, and the footage that could be used in the real world had also been edited. The two footages were slightly different because of legal considerations.

“Old Zhou, I must go back at once. I’ll take care of everything there. I can’t help you with the issues in the real world, so you have to work hard by yourself. But I believe you can do it.”

After saying that Xia Huan was ready to leave, but before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and said, “oh right, about Li Weiannian’s matter, he is making a TV drama now, after finishing that, his contract will also be expired, I guess that you want to take him back to Luhua village?”

Of course, even if Li Weiannian’s attributes were poor, at least, he was still a member of Luhua village, so he must come back.

“Okay, I’ll send him back personally.”

Xia Huan’s affection for Luhua village was getting deeper and deeper. In the beginning, it was just about mutual benefit, but after a few cooperation, now there was a faint feeling as if he was a part of the family. Even if Li Weinian came back to Luhua village, he was sure that the cooperation between Beidou and Luhua would not change much.

........................

As soon as the door of the studio was opened, Zhou Fu got the news, and then hurriedly rushed over. Since the day he knew that Zhou Yu wanted to make an underground maze project, he had been racking his brains to think of the feasibility of this project. He even invited a professional team to check the project, because he knew Zhou Yu would not change his mind.

As soon as the final project budget came out, Zhou Fu’s heart sank very deep.

The cost of the fantasy city project was several times bigger than the previous projects, and the cost of the maze project was several times bigger than the cost of the fantasy city project. If they kept throwing money into the amusement park project like this. What would the little paradise amusement park eventually look like?

Zhou Fu held the project budget sheet and was stunned for a while, then he began to work on it even harder. Because he knew that once the spoiled kid, Boy Yu made up his mind, no matter how much money it would cost, he would not hesitate to throw the money in.

God Damnit, is this still a rural amusement park?

So far only Zhou Fu one person knew about this plan. If others heard that the total investment of Little Paradise amusement park was likely to be over hundreds of millions of Chinese Yuan, they would probably laugh, what kind of fool would invest so much money in a rural amusement park?

However, there was indeed a fool in the amusement park.

For Zhou Yu to lose less money and for this project, Zhou Fu worked extremely hard. And “the Little Muli’s incredible maze”, which was the first plan of the maze project, he did not want to see it fail, even if there was the second plan, which was suggested by Mu Zi.

The matter about the audience’s acceptance of this variety show would be dealt with by the operation department, the things that Zhou Yu could control were the quality of the show. What if his Beidou and Qin Zhuan animation teams just used it as an experiment and didn’t put in a lot of effort, or if just like what Zhou Yu said that they just did it on a whim, then the problem would be very serious.

So many people were waiting to see the footage before deciding whether or not to work with the show.

“So, how is it?” Zhou Fu asked nervously.

However, as if Zhou Yu was just freed from the prison, he stretched and said relaxedly, “very good. With so many people shouting near my ears, I almost lost my hearing, but now I am finally free.”

Wait, what? There were other people in there? When Zhou Fu looked inside, except for the computer, the photographic equipment, and the model sand table, he could not see anyone else. Besides, every day, the food that the staff from Tung Fook mansion sent in, was only enough for one person. So what kind of people he was talking about.

Probably they were arguing with each other over the internet regarding the program production problem. Zhou Fu thought.

Having lived inside the dark studio for half a month, it was very difficult for Zhou Yu to open the eyes when he saw the sunlight again. As he stretched his body, he could hear a series of bone cracking sounds. He felt as if he had just come back alive.

After he stopped doing exercise for half a month, his body became slightly rusty. He felt that he should find some time to start training again.

“This is the sample footage, if you want to have advertisement, sponsorship, or whatever, we will edit them in later.”

Zhou Yu took out the film and gave it to Zhou Fu. From now on, he would need to handle the rest. No matter what the outcome was, the underground project was definitely going to happen. Then he would be able to explore the underground world. But before that happened, it was time to save some money, because it looked like the project was going to need a lot of money.

Now the main sources of funding were mainly the online game “The War Of Soybean Pudding”, and the money from the English version “Fun Recipes”. And it seemed like the comic book “Assassin” was going to be adapted into a live-action movie, and it was currently under negotiation. If the deal was made, it would also generate revenue.

However, Zhou Yu still did not know that if that would be enough. So just to be on the safe side, he decided to release some more games.

In the past, the Otaku Gaming portal had asked him if he could make some new educational games, so Zhou Yu decided to give them some new educational games.
