Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1073
As the president of MAG, Yoichi Sakai was already quite well-known in the industry at this time.

During the Spring Festival of 1982, Lin Daoqiu found Yoichi Sakai and invited him to join MAG as the president. Almost three years have passed since then.

During this period of time, Sakai Yoichi, Shimizu Ryuta, and Kodera Ryota were the core team, based on "One Piece", recruiting talents while burning money.

In a period of time, Lin Daoqiu poured 30 billion yen into MAG one after another. It can be said that MAG is definitely a rich and powerful existence in the world of neon comics.

If only relying on the income of "One Piece", it still cannot support the ambition of MAG.

After two years, the manga "One Piece" is about to be animated and put on TV.

But to adapt manga into anime, the cost is not a small sum of money.

Originally, Sakai Yoichi planned to go to Xiangjiang in person to have an interview with Lin Daoqiu, but now he has arrived at Neon, so Sakai Yoichi skipped Xiangjiang and his party.

With Ryota Kodera and Ryuta Shimizu, Yoichi Sakai went to Hakone to meet Lin Daoqiu, the chairman of MAG.

"Mr. Lin's development in the film and television industry has been getting better and better in the past few years. When "Godzilla" is released, I'm afraid there will be a huge storm."

The "Godzilla" thing has spread all over Neon recently.

Just the discussion on the TV show has already let many people know that the drama "Godzilla" is a real thing.

As the release time approaches, the topic of "Godzilla" becomes more and more heated.

"What's the matter, President, you look worried?"

Ryuta Shimizu found that Yoichi Sakai had been silent since he got in the car, and he could tell that he was hiding something in his heart.

"MAG has spent a lot of money in the past three years, but apart from "One Piece", we haven't produced any outstanding results. This time I went to see Mr. Lin, and I didn't even know what to say."

For the animation of "One Piece", Sakai Yoichi can be said to have racked his brains.

Although this manga has become very popular in Neon China, it is not an easy task to make it into an anime.

During this period, some people expressed their interest in cooperating to make "One Piece" an anime, but Sakai Yoshi refused without thinking about it.

Just kidding, Lin Daoqiu is not a person who is short of money. If he accepts other people's investment without his consent, then the president Sakai Yoichi is at the end of his job.

Hearing what Sakai Yoichi said, Shimizu Ryuta and Kodera Ryota also fell silent.

Lin Daoqiu invited them here to develop MAG better, but now MAG feels a bit stagnant.

When the three arrived at the hot spring hotel in Hakone, led by the waiter, they just entered the room, and unexpectedly saw a familiar face here.

Masami Cheda, the ace manga artist of Shueisha, how could he appear here?

"It's been a long time. You don't need me to introduce you, you should know who he is."

Lin Daoqiu stood up, then walked over and shook hands with Sakai Yoichi and the others.

"How come we don't know Mr. Chetian's name. We didn't expect to meet you here. It's really an honor for us."

Sakai Yangyi and the three immediately stepped forward to shake hands one by one.

At this time, Masami Cheda had just finished serializing "Fuma Kojiro" on Shueisha, and is now resting and conceiving the next manga.

Seeing this opportunity, Lin Daoqiu managed to invite him to Hakone for the simple purpose of winning his next manga "Saint Seiya".

Although MGA has been well-known in the neon comics industry in the past three years, but there are no comics in hand except "One Piece".

So Lin Daoqiu had to find a way to help them once, hoping to lure Masami Kurata, the author of "Saint Seiya", to MAG.

After everyone sat down, the waiter immediately brought all kinds of delicacies to the table.

"My biggest pastime on the plane is to read the manga "Fuma Kojiro". I would like to thank Mr. Cheda for drawing such a good work."

Chetian Masami smiled, he had heard some of Lin Daoqiu's name.

For this big shot in the film industry to suddenly invite herself to Hakone, Kurada Masami was also guessing the other party's intentions.

But when Yoichi Sakai and the three of them made their appearance, Masami Cheda probably guessed what Lin Daoqiu's purpose was for inviting him here.

"MAG has been developing very well in the past few years, and the "One Piece" produced by it is very popular in China. I also like this animation very much."

Masami Cheda also responded to Lin Daoqiu at the right time.

"In my opinion, the development momentum of MGA is very average. The reason why I invited Mr. Chetian here today is that I hope you can join MAG and become our master painter."

Just as Masami Cheda finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu suddenly said something that shocked him.

The other party actually sent an invitation to him directly. This is simply a joke. There is no foreshadowing at all. He just came up and said that, which scared Masami Kurata a bit.

Even Sakai Yoichi and the others next to him were startled by Lin Daoqiu's direct invitation.

But remembering that when Lin Daoqiu invited them to join MAG, the way he spoke was almost like a withdrawal, so Sakai Yoichi and the others immediately calmed down after being shocked.

"Mr. Lin is not joking, I am staying well at Shueisha now, and I have never thought about changing jobs."

For Masami Kurata, it can be said that Shueisha has taken good care of him. If he is transferred to other places at this time, Masami Kurata is definitely unwilling in his heart.

In fact, Lin Daoqiu guessed that Masami Kurata would answer him like this before coming here. After all, Shueisha really treated him very well.

But even so Lin Daoqiu didn't intend to give up, this time he was determined to get Masami Cheda to MAG.

Otherwise, when he draws "Saint Seiya", the possibility of Lin Daoqiu wanting to dig Masami Kurata is almost zero. This is what Lin Daoqiu absolutely does not want to see.

"Mr. Chetian, I'm not boasting. If you want to have a better development prospect in the future, you can only do it by joining MAG."

Masami Cheda didn't speak, but quietly listened to how Lin Daoqiu planned to persuade herself.

Promising?Masami Kurata didn't think about this matter seriously before, he just wanted to draw manga well, and just draw the manga well enough.

"MAG will definitely become the most influential company in the comics industry in the future. If Mr. Cheda misses this opportunity, it will not only be your loss, but also our loss at MAG."

　Thank you and yearn for the misty big monthly ticket!mwah! ╰(*°▽°*)╯
