Actually I just want to act

Chapter 1190 The Higher You Fly, The Harder You Fall

Fang Jiming said seriously: "What the comics industry lacks is not talents, but people who are willing to settle down."

Gu Hongye thought about it carefully, and said: "You are right. In fact, there is really no shortage of people who can draw in China, and there are quite a few people who can draw cartoons. But there are too few talents who are really willing to settle down and develop in this industry. They are all afraid of hard work, of not earning money, of not being rewarded for their efforts..."

"Didn't Bilibili provide a good platform, why can't we find suitable talents?" Fang Jiming asked, "Could it be that Bilibili didn't give enough money?"

"That's definitely not the case. The top manga authors earn at least one million a year, and it's increasing every year." Gu Hongye is also very surprised, "But the number of talents who follow up is getting less and less every year. It seems that domestic It’s like running out of talents in stock…”

Fang Jiming thought for a while, and then said: "So, this is the crux."

"What's the crux?" Gu Hongye asked a little strangely.

"story."

Fang Jiming pointed out the main flaw, "There are very few art students in China who really like painting. Most of them have poor grades and then turn to art students in order to get into a good university. Of course I am not Speaking of you, you should know that your grades are also very average..."

Gu Hongye: "..." Knowing that you still say it? !
"But if you look at the neon comics industry, good comics are full of stories." Fang Jiming sighed, "and the neon culture has been integrated and exported to the world. In terms of culture, China will not lose to any One country. But how to express it? Everyone says that Chinese culture is extensive and profound, how to express it in cartoons? Rely on some art students who failed the high school exams?"

Gu Hongye understood: "You mean, the mechanism for selecting talents is wrong?"

Fang Jiming said: "We can't say that there is a mistake, we should make use of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses. Before we cooperated with Dongfang Chinese website through Bilibili, it was very good."

"Ok?"

Gu Hongye immediately understood: "So, Dongfang Chinese Network provided the story and let Bilibili draw it into a cartoon?"

"Yes, we can sign a contract with the cartoon author, and the comic works will be signed by two people. Of course, this is only one of the methods. The real solution still needs the growth of the cartoon author himself, and tells a story with comics. It's not secondhand."

Fang Jiming's proposal made Gu Hongye suddenly enlightened.

That's right, the manga suggestions given by Fang Jiming are extremely useful.Especially works that can be drawn directly into comics, from "Tom and Jerry", to "Drama", and then to "Slam Dunk", "China Little Master", "Dragon Ball", "Prince of Tennis", "Captain Football" ...

But this is Fang Jiming's "story"!

The most important thing is that Fang Jiming's "stories" are so wonderful, from movies to TV dramas, from novels to animation...all these show that comics are actually just a carrier, and the real attraction is the story.The story is good, the manga is so-so, and there are still many fans chasing it.

"I understand!"

Gu Hongye said with emotion, "Although I work in the cultural industry, I don't have many cultural people under my command, right?"

"In any industry, there is a culture of fighting until the end. Whether it is the corporate culture or the personal cultural level of the employees." Fang Jiming said with deep feeling, "When you are a small company, you will feel that management is very simple. Individuals are easy to manage. But when the company is big, how do you manage and organize? Rely on orders? That is just an external driving force, and there is no way to push the company forward.”

Gu Hongye was very smart and immediately understood: "So we must create a common corporate culture and let all employees move towards one goal!"

"That's right, that's the reason. You should always regard the development of Guoman as the company's culture, and constantly give hints to employees. Combining good animation products with Chinese culture and Guoman with good market response, you must support and encourage at all costs. As long as Once the atmosphere has been formed, why worry about the rise of Chinese comics?"

Fang Jiming spoke very straightforwardly, so straightforwardly that anyone could understand it.After Gu Hongye heard this, he seemed to have pierced a layer of window paper: "No wonder the internal atmosphere in the company is not right recently. Everyone seems to be discouraged. It seems that my boss is not doing enough!"

"Yes, it's because you didn't do anything."

Fang Jiming didn't mean to make fun of it, but said seriously: "The first person responsible for the company is always the boss, not the employees. Employees are just an extension of the boss' will. Of course, employees have their own subjective Active. How to give full play to the subjective initiative of employees? It depends on the boss’s own ability. If you perform well, the company will go up; if you don’t perform well, the company will go down and go bankrupt.”

Gu Hongye is more aware of the cruelty of the market than Fang Jiming, he has been obsessed with how to do business since he was a child.

"Makes sense."

Gu Hongye began to think about it, and he felt that this direction was right.

"Then...if our comics are finished, how can we realize them?"

Fang Jiming smiled and said, "Animated movie!"

"Animated movie?"

Gu Hongye's eyes brightened, "Yes, animated movies, let's go to the Neon animated movies!"

Sometimes it has to be admitted that Neon animation is indeed ahead of the world.If there are no animation film companies like Marvel and DC, it is estimated that the style of neon can affect the whole world.Of course, Neon's special photo technology is also very powerful, it can be regarded as an alternative style.

Fang Jiming and Gu Hongye went to the cinema and watched two animation movies, and they both felt that they gained a lot.Neon's animation movies are really good, but they are all based on hand-painting. Even special-shot animation movies have the unique technology of Neon.

"If we make an anime movie, how do we do it?"

Gu Hongye asked, he still couldn't catch the point.

Fang Jiming smiled and said: "Story, no matter what film and television drama, it is the core of the story. If the story is good and the picture is better, then it is a good movie."

Gu Hongye smiled wryly and said, "That's not easy..."

"What's the problem?"

Fang Jiming said contemptuously, "An episode of Tom and Jerry lasts 10 minutes. Can't we draw a story that lasts 10 minutes? Doraemon alone can only be a 20-minute cartoon, and there is no way to make it more than 10 minutes." Minute movies? And "Slam Dunk", can't there be a theatrical version?"

When Fang Jiming said this, Gu Hongye understood.

"Uh, is this an anime movie?!"

Fang Jiming said: "Learn to walk first, don't keep thinking about flying at the beginning. The higher you fly, the harder you fall!"
