Chapter 603 The Time Has Come!

Yin Jun is not worried about the box office of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" in Asia.

Spielberg has never relied on Hollywood, but on his own unique film ingenuity.

In Hollywood, Spielberg is the best director who can tell stories and make the most money at the same time, and the truck driver can only be ranked second.

Speaking of which, Teresa Teng, who has set the "strongest record in history" in Japan with "The Goddess in the Toilet", originally planned to wave her sleeves and leave Japan, but because "Raiders of the Lost Ark" will be released soon, she still I have to stay in Japan to do some publicity.

Who told her that she is also an important supporting actress in "Raiders of the Lost Ark".

Originally, according to Deng Lijun's influence in Asia, Le Yiling wanted her to do a promotional tour across Asia, but Deng Lijun refused without thinking, and only wanted to promote in Japan, which made Le Yiling angry There was smoke coming out of his nostrils, and his heart became more and more resistant to the matter between her and Yin Jun.

Now that Deng Lijun has Yin Jun, she doesn't think about anything, and she doesn't care about offending anyone. Anyway, doing things according to her own personality is the most free.

It has been almost 7 weeks since "The Goddess in the Toilet" was released in Japan on May 16, and its sales have reached 12.23 million copies, which is only in Japan.

Before Teresa Teng, the highest album sales in Japan was almost one-tenth of hers, and now Teresa Teng raised the standard to more than 10 million in one go.

12.23 million copies!

This is simply a sales volume that makes latecomers desperate!

Even Teresa Teng herself was surprised. After the sales volume broke through 5 million, she often called Yin Jun worrying about gains and losses, saying that it felt too unreal.

Even if the previous two English singles were so popular, they didn't even reach the peak number of 12.23 million copies sold!

Not to mention that the English audience is almost 2 billion people, while the Japanese audience is 150 million people in Japan, which is 20 to 30 million people in Southeast Asia.

Yin Jun is the only one who doesn't find it strange.

Although she was in Japan in her previous life, Utada Hikaru ranked first in Japan with sales of 7.65 million albums, but Utada Hikaru is just an excellent singer, and not every song on her record is good, and everyone likes it .

And Teresa Teng's "The Goddess in the Toilet", not to mention the "Goddess in the Toilet", which touched all Asians like the Divine Comedy, is the remaining 9 songs, all of which were the champion singles of Seiko Matsuda and Akina Nakamori in the 1980s.

Yin Jun considers that people appreciate different categories at each stage, so he always chooses the songs of Hikaru Utada, Ayumi Hamasaki, Yuki Koyanagi, etc., using the classics of the two singers who were also in the 1980s, which is the most Sure enough.

Another point is that in 1980, the record industry did not enter a cold winter at all, but it was slowly rising, and people’s other entertainment activities were also lacking. Listening to music is undoubtedly a very good choice, so it will further promote the increase in sales .

The current results show that Yin Jun's idea is extremely correct.

The sales volume of 12.23 million records is not yet the final sales volume. It has become a record that Japanese singers cannot touch, and it is even enough to make any Asian singer worship.

Teresa Teng thus became the most popular female singer in Japan.

Many invitations to programs and advertisements came one after another, but Teresa Teng ignored them at all. If she hadn't thought that "Raiders of the Lost Ark" was a movie invested by Yin Jun, she would have returned to the United States for vacation.

To be honest, the singing and performance of Tianhou sister are just a kind of help, and the decisive significance lies in Spielberg's director, George Lucas's script and Harrison Ford's performance.

Yin Jun is well aware of how powerful this iron triangle is, so there is no doubt about its box office all over the world.

Yin Jun sorted out his current work, and there were many things after he came back.

For example, the guidance of "Police Academy", which has already started filming after training, and the investment discussion with Spielberg's "E.T.", the upcoming release of Unicorn Garden, etc.

But in Yin Jun's mind, the most important thing right now is the release of Transformers toys.

Since purchasing Guanming Toys Company in December last year and taking over their design team and personnel, Yin Jun has continuously started the construction of the factory building, the purchase of equipment and the expansion of personnel.

Originally, there were only five design departments including Rupp, but now after half a year of poaching and hiring, the number of design departments has reached as many as 83 people.

They have also moved from Kirin Culture to the 5-story office building of Kirin Toys Company, and the designers occupy a floor of a thousand-square-meter building.

Not only them, the staff of the comics and animation studios have also moved from Broadcasting Road to the park at the foot of Lau Fau Shan, which is also the same 5-storey building as the Kirin Toys Design Department.

Of course, the office space of the manga and animation studios is inside the building, while the production workshop of Kirin Toys fully occupies the other three one-story workshops, which add up to a full 250,000 square feet, about 22,500 square meters. About one meter, in Xiangjiang's toy industry, it is basically the largest.

To be honest, such a waste of land area, only one floor of the three factory buildings is really too much.

But Yin Jun did this on purpose, occupying more land area. In the future, when Transformers toys are sold all over the world, he can continue to buy land to build his own industrial park.

It's just that the government has sold him 300 mu of land for Transformers toys and future factory construction. If you don't work hard to develop and make the industry stronger and bigger, how can you buy new industrial land?

Since February after the Spring Festival, more than 2,000 workers have been recruited and put in place one after another.

The classification of workers is most important in three aspects: production, assembly, warehousing and transportation.

Naturally, there is no need for workers to worry about the purchase of raw materials and sales, that is what the company management organization does.

The production refers to the machine production in several classified workshops in the production workshop. There are steel mold machines purchased from Japan and Germany, which specialize in the production of various steel parts, and the same plastic mold machines, which specialize in the production of various parts. A plastic part.

The special movable joints of the body are also produced by machines purchased from manufacturers that cooperate with Hasbro. Regardless of the fact that the body occupies less than 10% of the overall materials, the cost of this piece is the highest, exceeding steel parts.

After the individual size parts are produced, the rest is assembly.

Most of them have no experience in making toys before, but fortunately, most of these Transformers toys are not hand-polished and carved, and it is not difficult to learn how to do it.

This is similar to when children buy toys and go home to piece them together.

Modern toys are the products of intensive industrial production. There are tens of thousands of them in batches. The parts are connected by snaps, or spliced ​​by concave and convex grooves. After a few days of learning, practice makes perfect thing.

The last thing left is that after passing the inspection, they are sorted into warehouses for storage, waiting to be sent out.

Among the three major processes, the second assembly is the most labor-intensive, so at least 1,500 of the more than 2,000 workers are assigned to this position.

Kirin Toys Design Department produced 155 shapes of 27 kinds of Transformers in February and March, and in the previous June, it produced more than 399 shapes of 58 kinds of Transformers.

It is further divided into three sizes: large, medium and small, ordinary plastic version, steel version and limited version, etc., which can make more than 1,000 kinds of Transformers shapes.

There are more than 1,000 Transformers shapes. Of course, it is impossible to make all of them in the same amount, which also needs to be divided into grades.

For example, the most popular important characters such as Optimus Prime, Megatron, Bumblebee, Starscream, Ironhide, etc. are naturally the most produced, and they must be in various forms.

For some ordinary characters, you can only rely on their excellent appearance and shape to attract toy fans, or just make up the quantity, use the cheapest plastic molds, and directly compress and mold them, the kind that don't even need to be assembled.

Since the official start of production in May, the factory has stocked up more than 10 million Transformers toys of various categories and sizes. This is due to the slowdown in consideration of the initial running-in and quality control.

Good products naturally need good advertisements to promote them.

The best promoters of Transformers toys are the comic "Transformers" released by Yin Jun and the cartoon "Transformers" that is broadcast for free around the world.

Comic books and cartoons are two-pronged, especially the cartoons are broadcast on major TV stations around the world, making boys all over the world fall in love with these steel robots.

According to the survey, what they like most is seeing the robot transform into a car, which feels very magical and very cool.

Since the animation started broadcasting in mid-March, there has been a growing demand for the purchase of "Transformers toys that can transform like TVs" everywhere.

Qilin Culture did not know how many calls from toy dealers had received, asking if it was produced, what price it would be if it was produced, when it would be shipped if it was purchased...etc.

Even Hasbro, which can have patent rights in toys because of the patented body joint technology, has actively contacted Kirin Culture, wanting to develop the Transformers toy market together with Kirin Culture.

Yin Jun naturally refused without thinking.

What a joke!

Can I share with you the toy industry with annual sales of 500-800 million US dollars and net profit of 100-200 million US dollars?

But just because even Hasbro is tempted, it shows that children's desire for Transformers toys has reached a critical point.

At this time, it is time for toys to be shipped!
