Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 13 The intention has been decided
"We chose a weekly magazine, while Huang Yulang's "Birth News" and Shangguan's "Good News" are both daily newspapers. Our tracks are different, and our sales models are completely different!"

"not understand well!"

Li Chongjun and Li Wannian were walking on the streets of Dundas together, and the two discussed whether the new magazine would impact the original comics industry pattern in Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong Island is really too small, and the comics industry is so big. If you take one more bite, I will take one less bite.

The popularity of the comic "Death" will inevitably affect other competitors, and it will be difficult for them not to attack you.

However, Li Wannian didn't think so.

"Their daily newspapers mainly focus on volume and rely on low price and quantity to compete, while we adopt a high-quality, low-frequency model. Dad, just imagine, although their daily newspapers are cheap, each copy costs 2 Yuan, that’s 14 yuan a week, our weekly magazine is priced at 3 yuan, and there is always one issue every week, what will happen if this happens?”

"You mean, ours is more cost-effective?"

"Not only that, except for their die-hard fans who will buy every issue, ordinary readers will not buy every issue because it is very expensive. As for weekly magazines, they can afford it, it is only 12 yuan a month. By then The readers we cultivate are more sticky!”

"But, in this case, we are not as good as them in making money?"

“Of course it’s not as good as just relying on Hong Kong Island!”

"You mean...walk out?"

Businessmen and literary and artistic workers on Hong Kong Island seem to be relatively short-sighted. They lack a long-term vision and only want to make quick money.

It is precisely because of this that the film industry in Hong Kong collapsed, emerging industries were unable to develop, and finally became a slave relying on finance and real estate.

Of course Li Wannian would not be like this. His vision was never limited to Hong Kong Island, but looked at the entire world.

"That's right, in the final analysis, content production still depends on quality. As long as the quality is good, we will have the confidence to go global... What's wrong? Dad?"

Just as he was talking, Li Wannian suddenly noticed that Li Chongjun had stopped.

"We have arrived!"

"Are you here? We're not going home either!"

"I'm home, but it's just your home!"

Li Chongjun took out a key from his pocket and waved it in front of Li Wannian, then led him straight upstairs.

This is a new-looking apartment building with exquisite decoration. Dundas Street is right outside the door, which is very convenient and only a few hundred meters away from Li Wannian's home.

Go up to the fourth floor, open Room 04, and you will see a spacious living room.

Well, it's quite spacious for Hong Kong Island.

Of course, it may be that there is no furniture inside, which makes the living room of more than 20 square meters look very spacious.

"This is……"

"I have rented this room for you to use as a studio. I'm sorry. Although I have been a little looser recently, the loan has not been paid off yet, so I can only rent it for now. When I make a lot of money later, I will buy you a house!"

"Thank you, Dad!"

Looking at Li Chongjun who was talking endlessly, Li Wannian felt moved from the bottom of his heart.

Although in the past half month, the family has earned almost 30 to [-] yuan from the two comics, the family's debt is also very high, more than [-] yuan.

Therefore, Li Chongjun still saved everything he could and did not dare to neglect anything.

But even in such difficult circumstances, he still chose to rent a house for Li Wannian, which in itself showed that Li Chongjun cared about Li Wannian.

Don't talk nonsense about Li Chongjun now relying on Li Wannian to make money, and he will definitely treat him well. There are so many evil bosses in this world, and there are too many bastard bosses who don't pay you wages and treat you like a donkey of the production team!

"Why are you being polite to me? Look at what you still need at home, tell me, and I'll buy it for you!"

Li Chongjun didn't want to be so pretentious. He kept circling the room, giving people the illusion that he was very busy.

"Dad, don't worry about this. Don't forget, I'm a student now. If I come home late every day, I'm afraid my mother will find out!"

"Don't worry about this. I rented the house in the name of your second brother. I will tell you later that you are with your second brother! As for your mother, after I pay off the family's debt, I will tell her the truth! Now! Tell her, I'm afraid she'll be worried!"

Seeing that his father had thought everything out, Li Wannian stopped saying anything and looked around at the empty room. Unexpectedly, he was only 13 years old and would have his own studio!

"So, do you understand?"

In the office, Huang Yulang looked at his two disciples playfully.

"I understand!" Qi Wenjie thought for a moment and nodded. "Brother Huang, are you saying that although their works are very good, they only publish one in half a month. In fact, it has not had a big impact on the entire comic industry?"

"That's right!"

"But what if they also publish a daily newspaper?"

"Haha, Ajie, tell me, with your ability, how long will it take to draw a comic of this level?"

"Uh, I can't draw!"

"..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Zhang Wanyou laughed out loud.

"For example, seriously!"

Seeing that Huang Yulang was serious, Qi Wenjie quickly changed his words: "With my ability, I'm afraid it will take more than a week to draw one picture. If the quality is reduced, it will also take a week!"

"Even if this Banzai is much stronger than you and can draw one episode in three days, if you ask him to run a daily newspaper, do you think he can draw it?"

Qi Wenjie and Zhang Wanyou suddenly realized.

"Brother Huang, you are saying that we win by quantity!"

"Yes, of course we are not as good as him in terms of comic quality, but comics are business after all. Readers are so ordinary that they don't care about these techniques at all. They just need to have a good story! However, speaking of it, I quite like it. Seeing this Banzai, he is definitely not a novice at this level, but he has never heard of it, who is his pen name?"

"It's not like that. At least no one in our family or Shangguan family is at this level!"

Zhang Wanyou, who had been playing soy sauce, suddenly said.

"That's really weird. Could it be that this person jumped out of the stone?"

"Boom boom boom!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

"Come in!"

Huang Yulang returned to his office chair.

After opening the door, a thin figure walked in, and it was He Zhiwen.

"Mr. Huang, are Brother Qi and Brother Zhang here?"

He Zhiwen came to Huang Yulang timidly. As an assistant, he could rarely talk to Huang Yulang. .

"Awen, is something wrong?"

"Mr. Huang, I want to resign!"

"Oh? Awen, are you in a good place?"

Huang Yulang's eyes narrowed slightly, and his attitude suddenly rose. He was completely different from the approachable person he was just now.

"No, it's my grandfather. He helped me find a master and asked me to study hard!"

"Hahaha, Awen, your grandfather is also an old man in the industry. Is there any master who is better than our Yulang Company?"

"I'm not sure about this either. These are my grandfather's orders, and there's nothing I can do about it!"

"Okay, since you have decided to go, I won't keep you!"

"Really? Thank you Mr. Huang!"

When He Zhiwen left the office, Huang Yulang's expression became extremely gloomy.

"He lied!"

"Of course I know, Ajie, check it out for me later. Which company does this kid go to?"

"Yes, I'll do it now!"
