Chapter 1340: Has the Olympic mascot been chosen as the Qilin Ganyu?
In the end, regarding Sister Yidian being the finale, Mo Li and Sister Yidian couldn't give any suggestions.
It's better to leave this headache to Director Zhang to be melancholy about.
Afterward, both sides discussed the matters of Kiana being the last torchbearer for the holy fire and the election of the Olympic mascot.
Through Director Zhang's explanation, Mo Li also roughly understood the current progress.
In one sentence—
The matter of Kiana being a torchbearer has been completely finalized.
It is just that the mascot matter is still under discussion.
Now two plans have been given.
First, Director Zhang's team will create a batch of mascots themselves.
Second, it will be decided by voting on the internet, and the target of the vote will be animals unique to the Dragon Kingdom, or traditional and mythological species.
For example, the national bird of the Dragon Kingdom, pandas, divine dragons, Qilins, etc.
Of course, not all species with Dragon Kingdom characteristics can be selected.
The premise of this selection, besides being "likable", must also fit the blessings of prosperity, beauty, health, and good luck, and be able to create economic value for national development.
And the reason why Director Zhang told Mo Li about this was also because there are more people in their team who agree with the second item.
Director Zhang can imagine that if there is really a vote on the internet, with Damn Mihuyou's current popularity...
As long as that Qilin character from *Genshin Impact* is selected, it will definitely be able to reach the top with a crushing posture.
It can be said that Damn Mihuyou has basically booked one.
Even if it fails to be selected in the end, Damn Mihuyou can still show its face in this vote.
This news can be said to be the best news received during this visit.
Mo Li is also sincerely happy for Ganyu.
"So, about when will the voting start?"
Director Zhang shook his head: "It hasn't been decided yet, but it's coming soon."
And just at this moment, Zhang Yuanyuan, who had been following Mo Li, couldn't help but speak: "Boss Mo Li, hurry up and think about whether there are any characters in *Honkai: Star Rail* that fit the theme of this mascot."
"If there are, release them as soon as possible; maybe one or two more characters can show their faces."
Mo Li: "!!"
That's right!
Star Rail will be in public beta in a few days.
And the popularity of Star Rail will definitely not be lower than *Genshin Impact*.
As for the fitting characters... that little Diting on the Xianzhou? Or the conductor Pom-Pom?
This will have to be thought about carefully when I go back.
"Okay, I will do it as soon as possible."
Regarding this, Director Zhang had no objections.
He is very clear about how favored Damn Mihuyou is in the eyes of the Dragon Kingdom officials now.
"Director Zhang, may I ask a presumptuous question?"
Just at this moment, Xiang Lita, who had been following Mo Li, suddenly spoke.
"After the mascot is selected, the economic value created..."
As soon as Sister Xiang Lita said this, everyone present immediately understood what she wanted to ask.
Naturally, it was... how much money Damn Mihuyou can get...
Everyone present understood the IP value of Damn Mihuyou.
If the Qilin-form Ganyu is really selected, it will definitely be used as a peripheral product for the Olympic mascot to be sold, so as to subsidize the expenses of hosting the Olympic Games.
And as an IP derivative of Damn Mihuyou, Damn Mihuyou naturally cannot take nothing.
"You may not be clear, Boss has always taken great care of the feelings of the girls in the studio."
"So, although we make two-dimensional games, Boss has never had the idea of making figures and other peripheral products for profit."
"He even spares no effort to crack down on those secondary creation and pirated merchants."
"If Ganyu is selected as the Olympic mascot, it will definitely create business opportunities for many merchants."
"This move can not only satisfy the consumption desires of countless people and bring huge benefits to the country, but also solve the employment problems of countless people."
"So..."
Xiang Lita's words were clear, listing the benefits this move could bring to the country one by one. But she didn't mention the powerful fame benefits brought to Damn Mihuyou after being selected.
And for Xiang Lita's eloquent talk, Director Zhang just looked at her with a smile.
Until Xiang Lita finished speaking, he nodded, not knowing whether he was agreeing with Xiang Lita's words or affirming Xiang Lita's strong negotiating attitude.
"This... Miss Xiang Lita, right?"
Mo Li nodded: "Sorry, I was shocked by the magnificence of the venue for a moment and forgot to introduce her."
·· ······Seeking flowers··· ·····
"Xiang Lita, she is considered... my secretary."
Director Zhang nodded slightly, and then said slowly:
"So, this is why some people want original mascots."
"After all, if it's original, there are no copyright issues."
Xiang Lita: "Hmm, I understand, but original mascots are definitely not as popular as Qilin Ganyu, whether for domestic or foreign tourists."
"Unless the national treasure panda is selected, it can be welcomed by many foreign tourists, but I am sure that this will definitely not be better than Qilin Ganyu."
Director Zhang nodded: "Hmm, everyone knows this, so I said that more people agree with internet voting."
"As for the benefit distribution problem that Xiang Lita girl is worried about..."
Director Zhang paused and laughed loudly: "Boss Mo Li really doesn't know how much you are valued by the country, hahaha..."
"In short, you don't need to worry about this little thing."
"Hosting the Olympics doesn't just rely on selling mascot dolls to make money." ===== CHAPTER 1342 =====
