Peninsula Entertainment Starts as a Writer

Chapter 1 Rollback 2012
Parallel time and space.

September 2012, 9, Peninsula, Seoul.

Chengdong District, Yushui Cave, Zhonghua Pavilion.

"Xiaodong, we are going back to Gwangju this afternoon. During the three days of the Mid-Autumn Festival, you should guard the store. There are still ingredients in the kitchen. You can cook and eat whatever you want. You are welcome."

In front of him, a middle-aged man who was in crisis of baldness was chattering.

Han Zidong came back to his senses, nodded and smiled foolishly.

He just ordered a takeaway, and he went back to 2012 when he was still a deliveryman. No one would believe this kind of thing, but it happened to him, like a dream.

"Nai, boss. Please rest assured, except for the flour, I guarantee that other ingredients stored in the store will never be left after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Ouch, wife," the middle-aged man looked at the woman who was sitting on the side watching weekend dramas, and said amusedly, "I just said, Han Zidong is such a ghost, he will never treat himself badly."

Han Zidong smiled: "Boss, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I think we may need to recruit new delivery staff."

"Mo? What are you talking about? Could it be that you want to resign?"

"Inside!"

Han Zidong clasped his hands under his stomach and lowered his head slightly.

"why?"

The middle-aged man was stunned by Han Zidong's sudden intention to resign.

Although the delivery guy from their family had a poor level of Korean when he first came to the peninsula, and occasionally forgot to recycle the tableware, and he was often deducted by himself. In his eyes, there was nothing but his looks.

But as the two got along, Han Zidong's tenacity left a deep impression on him. That's why he chose Han Zidong as the only full-time deliveryman in Zhonghua Pavilion.

After getting along for more than nine months, he likes Han Zidong very much, and the relationship between the two is also very harmonious. How could the other party suddenly want to resign?
"Wife," the middle-aged man hurriedly beckoned to his wife: "Wife, stop watching TV, Xiaodong is going to resign!"

"Moragul?"

Hearing her man's words, the proprietress stopped knocking melon seeds, and didn't have the heart to watch TV.

After all, Han Zidong is not only an employee of their store, but also a living sign of their Zhonghua Pavilion.

Because Han Zidong has a tender face, regular facial features, tall stature, and polite manners, he is deeply loved by neighbors and customers, and many girls even order food from him as a delivery boy.

And as a mother with only two daughters, both of whom are still star-struck, it doesn't let her worry at all. She has always wanted to have a sensible son. After getting along with each other for nearly a year, she has fainted. Treat Han Zidong like a son.

She couldn't accept Han Zidong's sudden resignation.

She pulled Han Zidong to sit aside, and asked, "Xiaodong, why are you resigning suddenly? Is it because you are homesick, or did you feel wronged when you delivered food this morning?"

Han Zidong shook his head.

Thinking of his sudden resignation like this, it would really make the boss and his wife fantasize. After thinking about it, he decided to use his dream as an excuse: "Boss, lady boss, you should know more or less that I have always wanted to draw manga..."

The boss looked confused, while the lady boss showed joy, as if seeing her second daughter admitted to a prestigious university.

"Zidong, you mean you have found a job as a manga assistant?"

Han Zidong still shook his head: "That's not true. If possible, I plan to make a comic by myself."

"Ah, your visa should be expiring soon. If you resign at this time, if you don't have a stable job..."

Before Li Guanghai could finish his words, he was hit hard by Xian Sumei.

"Just talk about frustration."

Xian Sumei looked at Han Zidong softly, and after a moment of silence, she said: "I also know that you are a person with ideas, so I won't persuade you.

I just want to tell you that if the work is not going well, you can go back to our Zhonghua Pavilion first to get the visa renewal done.

In short, no matter what, Lao Li and I will actively support you. "

After finishing speaking, Xian Sumei glared at her husband, Li Guanghai shrank his neck, smacked his lips and said, "Hey Yigu, I didn't expect that our small restaurant could produce a great writer."

Han Zidong's heart warmed when he heard Xian Sumei's words, thinking of all the past in the original timeline, he was only grateful for Li Guanghai and his wife.

At the same time, he didn't forget the serious matter: "Boss, the matter of recruiting new people..."

"You don't have to worry about this matter," Li Guanghai waved his hands, and finally showed the temperament of being a family member: "It's not like you don't know that the takeaway staff in our Chinese restaurant are the most sought-after. If you resign today, I can make an appointment in the afternoon." People, just wait for the interview after the festival.”

Han Zidong knew that what Li Guanghai said was true. Here in the peninsula, fried noodles can compete with fried chicken for the first place in the takeout list, and there is a huge demand for takeout.

The monthly salary of a full-time deliveryman working in a Chinese restaurant like him can even reach 220 million (about 1.24), which is far more than a large number of fresh graduates, except of course the students of S·K·Y. It deserves the word "sought after".

"Do you have any idea about making comics?" Xian Sumei asked with concern.

"By the way, do you know how to draw manga? Why don't I know."

Li Guanghai was still thinking about the first question.

Xian Sumei took out a takeaway brochure from the table, pointed to the four-panel cartoon on it and said, "Hey, this is what Xiaodong drew for us."

"Oh, I just said why the old Liu of the printing factory didn't charge more money, so it was you who helped."

"Don't interrupt, Xiaodong, tell me what you think, we two will help you as a staff member."

"We are just selling rice..."

Feeling the murderous aura, Li Guanghai skillfully pressed his mouth.

"Neither, I may go back to China for a while, or I may stay and start a business and open a comic studio. I haven't decided which one to choose."

"..."

Sitting alone in the store, thinking about where he would go in the next year or two, Han Zidong showed hesitation.

There are two roads in front of him now, one is the extremely easy and broad road, and he chooses to go back to China for a year or so.

As long as he invests all his money in the BTC exchange and sells it after a year, the hundredfold profit of BTC will allow him to easily achieve one-tenth of his small goal, and he will be free to do whatever he wants from now on.

Just in this way, nearly two years of his ten years of prophetic nature will be lost out of thin air.

After all, in the original timeline, he stayed in the peninsula until the eve of the Spring Festival in 2020. Compared with the domestic situation, he is more familiar with the big and small hotspots here in the peninsula.

The other way is for him to stay on the peninsula and devote himself to the webtoon business.

Then, using the manga series as a springboard, and with the help of his previous life's knowledge, he will break into the core circle of the peninsula's local film and television complex. If everything goes well, maybe he will be able to create a smaller CJ entertainment in three to five years.

The unfavorable factor is that the current web comic business in Peninsula is very prosperous, but the prosperity of the industry has nothing to do with web comic writers.

Until the establishment of Lezhin Comics in the middle of next year, they will not be able to receive enough remuneration from the Internet, and publishing physical books is also out of reach. Therefore, many webcomic writers rely on their business hobbies, persist in creating, and generate electricity for love. .

In short, the two roads have their own advantages and disadvantages, which made him unable to choose for a while.

If he went home immediately, he could see his mother earlier, reconcile with her earlier, and spend two more years with her, so that her old man could enjoy the happiness of life.

After all, since he failed the college entrance examination, he has been going his own way, and he has completely broken his mother's heart when he refused to repeat his studies and chose to go abroad to work.

What's even more exaggerated is that in the first three years when he came to the peninsula in his last life, he didn't even return home once. As the only child in the family, his behavior like this should not be done.

In his refusal to go home, he wanted to save money, but it may not be because he didn't look like a human being and had no face to go home.

But he is different now, just relying on his manga skills and his ten-year prophetic nature, he will be able to eat and drink without worrying about whether he is high or low in his life, and he will be rich all his life.

If he stays, his best choice is to devote himself to the creation of web comics in advance.

There are still three months before the Gregorian New Year. As long as he is diligent, it is entirely possible to produce [-] or [-] episodes of comics before the New Year. When he returns to China, he will use this comic as a New Year's gift. I believe his mother will also feel very happy. gratified.

Web comics have both cultural attributes and network characteristics. The former allows web comics and film and television dramas to be integrated naturally, and they are mutually exclusive. What's more, in the next ten years, the number of local comics and dramas on the peninsula will soar, and web comics will become the new Korean wave. position.

The latter allows Han Zidong, a foreigner with only a high school education, to easily break through the barriers of discrimination. After all, in the Internet age, no one cares whether the other end of the computer screen is a human or a dog!

But in this way, he has to face the immature market of peninsula's local web comics.

Since you are hesitant, come and ask for directions.

According to memory, he opened the browser and entered "Tumblbug" in the input box.

The first column of the search results is the official website of Tumblbug, a well-known art resource crowdfunding website in the future.

He plans to launch a comic project, and the crowdfunding amount will be 3000 million. As for the specific project content...

Considering the popular comics, novels, Korean dramas after 2012, and the conflict between the production cycle of comics and the launch time of the original timeline works, he chose one of them that brought beer and fried chicken into popular culture. Korean drama.

In the next hour and a half, Han Zidong began to make the project book. For him, who has been in comic training courses for more than five years intermittently, has more than two years of experience as a comic assistant, and has worked on a comic independently after returning to China, These are small cases.

It's just that when he sketched the characters of the male and female protagonists, he discovered another shocking advantage.

The information about the episodes he had watched, when he recalled them, came to mind one by one, as if a DVD was stored in his brain, allowing him to play and watch.

If time didn't allow, he could even draw the corresponding storyboard directly.

Maybe if he had a tablet, he could speak out directly.

Whether this is hypermemory or a benefit of rebirth, he doesn't know.

But he knew that if he really stayed on the peninsula, this would be a big killer.

The balance in my heart began to tilt.

The most important part of a comic is the plot and the graphics. His own experience in the industry is enough to support the graphics. Coupled with the blessing of the plot, wouldn't he be able to produce a comic that is expected to become popular in minutes.

In addition to making a project letter, attaching his own identification, detailed project content and corresponding commitments, he also needs to fill in the content of the project display area and the sponsorship area.

The former is submitted to the website for review as an attachment and is not disclosed to the public, while the latter is the project details that are fully disclosed after the project proposal has passed the review.

While waiting for the website to be reviewed, he suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. Today seemed to be the first day of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, and the website's review might not be...

After a big trough, just when he was about to find a patch for his previous plan of throwing stones and asking for directions, his project passed the review!
Ah...this.

Then until 12 o'clock tonight, as long as there is one person to sponsor, he will first produce three months of comics in Seoul...
