What was IP drama? What the hell was IP?

Answer 1

The full name of an IP drama was "adaptation rights drama series". It referred to a TV series that was based on a popular Internet cultural product (such as novels, comics, animations, games, etc.) that authorized its storyline, characters, background settings, etc. to television, movies, and other media. The production company of an IP drama would usually first purchase the copyright, then adapt and create the original IP into a series and broadcast it on television, movies, and other media.

IP was the short form of "intellectual property." It refers to a type of intellectual property, namely the creativity, works, ideas, concepts, etc. created by a person, company, or organization. The rights are solely enjoyed by the person, company, or organization and are not violated by a third party. For example, novels, comics, animations, games, and other Internet cultural products were a type of IP. IP drama was a form of expression that used IP to create and adapt and transform it into a series.
