Found this rather interesting a bit farfetched but interesting none the less.
"It is understood that the release of "Rainbow Riding Team", "PINY Pinnacle Fashion Academy" and "Cleo and Xiaoku" covers both new media and TV stations.
In addition, Senyu Culture will also issue customized books and albums for these three children's IPs, as well as authorized cooperation in audiobook apps and parent-child animation apps. At present, "Cleo and Xiaoku" has reached a cooperation with the "Fluent Speaking-Children's English" under the New York Stock Exchange-listed company Fluent Speaking® (NYSE: LAIX) to jointly develop online courses in English teaching. This also kicked off the first step of the all-IP operation model of this popular children's animation in China.
However, Senyu Culture's exploration of children's IP licensing and development is much more than that. At present, Senyu Culture has also taken the first step in "how to realize the authorization of children's IP in cultural tourism".
At present, Senyu Culture and Animation Theme Hotel is under preparation. In the future, Senyu Culture will use its IP to develop a one-stop parent-child travel destination. At the same time, Senyu Culture will also launch offline events with different themes in the hotel, such as "Immersive English Experience Camp", "Themed Children's Music Festival" and "I read nursery rhymes with stars", etc. Operating model.
In addition, Senyu Culture will also launch its own IP-licensed daily necessities and quick-sale products in anime-themed hotels, breaking the single barrier of sales channels for IP-authorized products. In fact, the current Chinese market does have a lot of such offline anime experience space, but there are very few anime-themed venues that allow parents and children to have a good offline experience. The Senyu Culture Children's IP entered the cultural tourism sector, which is precisely its exploration of the question of "how to break the ceiling of the cultural tourism". Based on the IP empowerment of the content core, Senyu Culture, while creating an offline animation experience space, has realized multiple realizations and multiple realizations in the cultural tourism industry.
A bit different, but I have seen some crazy things in Asia before, Tokyo in particular, a themed cartoon/anime/cultural tourism hotel seems a stretch. Looking forward to seeing the rollout of products in China, to see what they come up with, what is the target audience like culturally?
Evidently Shanghai Senyu Culture Media Co.,Ltd. is handling all apsects of RR and Youku/Alibaba will be handling the Superhero Kindergarten IP although RR has of late been appearing on Youku I guess we will hear more of that as this all unfolds.
Derekkemp in regards to to the sku's you asked about for Q1 2020 this is what I have come up with.
Although released in the first week of December the Bentex trio of T-shirts and the RR DVD Kaleidoscopia I consider a Q1 revenue starters as their release dates put them more in line with Q1 2020 than Q4 2019 I don't see how in three weeks anything was added to revenue from either of these in Q4 2019 (or recognized) I think a lot of sales for Xmas season isn't realized until Q1 following the Xmas season as it isn't a case the Xmas holiday Q ends and we know right away what was sold etc.
So I count those two for Q1 2020 as well as these below.
Llama llama DVD Feb 2nd 2020
RR DVD I Love Unicorns
RR pajamas
RR season 3 (VOD's have broken it down into 3 seasons 13 episodes each) #3 came in late January
4 coloring books 2 LL and 2 RR
3 LL cartoon series paperback
Llama LLama Best Sight Words wipe and clean activity book
It is rather hard to figure out I just add them to the sack rather than try and figure which is which Q as long as a steady stream of all types of revenue keep rolling I am good with it whatever the Q it starts actually generating $'s. For me it's the continual growth thing whether it is adding more AOD OTT SVOD, sales to new countries like the RR sale for firs season in January as trial then full on 6 times a day pick up in February.
And then I look at okay they are all on board season 1 and have increased airings so I know that season 2 and 3 are already a lock that is just revenue is coming for me that is the judgement of it, to hard to otherwise.
Like Psycho bunny they pay the royalties in Q1 for an entire year they all pay different, revenue gets recognized different times its not really a set thing, so as long as the ball of string keeps getting bigger I am pleased.
rickn23 any thoughts on what CCTV paid for RR season 1? Only judge by it I have been able to even guestimate with is the $350K+ that Nick Jr Latin America paid for season 1 which the order for season 2 should be not far off its almost one year exact since they ordered season 1.
It is a much bigger market by a long show, China's market is like 10-15 times that of Latin America, but that doesn't really mean anything, and we never did find out ho much Cartoonito in Italy paid for season 1 RR that is also ahead their purchase of season 2. Gonna just let the conversation go from there, it is just to confusing to figure out, like I said as long as more product hits, more seasons renewed, thing go ahead in China with SK and RR etc. I am good with it and although cannot as accurately as I like figure out just what/how/when revenues are rising in what Q etc I just will go with the knowing its adding every week/month etc.
Market Cap is my judge, if market cap was 30 million with the hopes of SK in China and the promise of 3 hit cartoon series generating revenue from all quarters, now with those things coming to fruition and what lies ahead in the next 3-9 months cannot see market cap at what it is today. France next winter 2 months for me, mark it.
Off Topic
Well we will see how it all plays out with the flu deal, it just seems so odd that the hype does not crank up to reality. NYC I don't believe for one minute the "overwhelmed" NYC hospitals is a real thing, it is like AO Cortez and her crying photo at the fence along the border when it wasn't a fence at all but a gate she could walk around with no one on the other side. They needed those Navy Hospital ships so badly and yet, in NYC only 20 people been taken on and in LA 15 as the old lady said in the 80's commercial "Where's the beef" hype is not playing out the same as reality.
A pandemic that has one allow the government to lock them down in their homes, which is a dangerous precedent, better have more than every case you can scrape off the bottom of someone's shoe like gum in the 100's of thousands not 1000 per week in a country of 350 million people. And that 1000 people per week are still nowhere near the "real" flu which is 50K per season in the "US alone"
Been a month of this nonsense now being "full blown" and still adding every "trace" case of this covid flu they are like a company trying to fulfill a contract....."oh count that one, it goes on the list as complete"
If they persist with it another month, which I believe the public will not allow after this week I will be taking a holiday in one of the states that is living their life as normal with no lockdowns and BS.
Hell the country of Sweden is doing "nada, nothing" life goes on as normal as old people die as do the weak. 90% elderly dying from a strain of the flu is just that elderly people dying which is normal. Take them out of the count and the numbers are even more arsenene. I have never held much esteem for the average person and their ability to walk and chew gum at the same time, well I for one will look at them with even more disdain now, sheeeeeeeeeep.
They don't start adding zero's to the already nonsensical hyped up, stacked BS numbers this things falls like a house of cards, and I agree with you they will all try and say afterwards that the lockdown saved everyone from certain extinction or some BS to cover their azzes.
