Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 338 Recognize the reality
  "How long does it take to open the gate that leads directly to Soul Society?"

Regarding Chen Baixiang's question, Gu Tianle was stumped!
  How many minutes will it take? damn it! I actually forgot!

Unconsciously, the game has reached the final moment.

The current score on the field is very anxious, especially for Gu Tianle and the middle-aged uncle Jiang Zhengfeng, who are locked in a tight score.

Therefore, every question is critical.

The countdown sound in the background kept ringing, and every sound sounded like a knock on Gu Tianle's heart.

"Please answer! 3, 2, 1..."

There was only 20 seconds to answer. Seeing that it was at the end, Chen Baixiang also started shouting the countdown.

Three minutes or four minutes?

Which one?
  The conditions in my family are not good. If I can win the championship and win 100 million Hong Kong dollars, then my family will undergo earth-shaking changes!

However, when the current huge sum of 100 million depends on this question, Gu Tianle is entangled in his heart!
  "Time's up, please answer!"

"3 minutes!"

Hearing Chen Baixiang's aggressive words, Gu Tianle casually said a number.

"The answer is wrong, Jiang Zhengfeng, please answer!"

"4 minutes!"

The opponent missed successfully.

"The answer is correct, the game is over!"

Gu Tianle answered 5 questions correctly, Jiang Zhengfeng answered 6 questions correctly, and the other one only answered 3 questions correctly.

There is no doubt that Jiang Zhengfeng won the final victory.

It’s over, lost, 100 million gone!

At this moment, Gu Tianle was groggy, as if he had been hit hard, so much so that he still didn't wake up until Li Wannian presented them with the award.

"Raku Furuta, right? You are really awesome! Thank you for liking my work!"

Li Wannian shook hands with Gu Tianle and talked, which made Gu Tianle sober up.

"You... take care of yourself, Mr. Long Live!"

When Gu Tianle came back to his senses, he felt excited when he saw Li Wannian so close.

Furuta Raku was able to become the runner-up because he naturally liked Li Wannian's comics. Therefore, when facing Li Wannian, his nervous breathing became rapid and he even forgot about the 100 million!

"Hello, you are very beautiful. I think you can become a star in the future!"

"Thank...Thank you!"

"Here you go, your bonus!"

With that said, Li Wannian pushed a big paper sign to Gu Tianle.

"Ah? Do I get a bonus too?"

"Of course! Although it's only 10, it's still better than nothing!"

Before this, Gu Tianle had been busy preparing for the competition and raiding the question bank, so he didn't read the rules carefully at all. He had no idea that the runner-up and third runner-up also had bonuses, but the runner-up only had 10, and the third runner-up only had 1.

Although there is a big difference compared to the champion's 100 million, it is still a huge amount of money for ordinary people.

After a simple conversation with Gu Tianle, Li Wannian presented the award to the champion.

Afterwards, they took a group photo together, and this grand two-dimensional flourishing era came to an end. Li Wannian’s photo with the first, second and third runners-up appeared on TV a week later.

"I really didn't expect that this guy Li Wannian would make another big move!"

Looking at Li Wannian's bright smile on TV, Huang Yulang couldn't help but sigh.

"Teacher, are you okay?"

In the office, his apprentice Qi Yunjie was looking at Huang Yulang with a worried look.

"What? Are you afraid that I can't think about it?"

Huang Yulang said with a smile when he saw his disciple.

"Then...that's okay!"

"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile. I've already looked away now! How hard must I be to compare with this guy?"

What Huang Yulang said was sincere.

The fact is indeed what Huang Yulang thought. He has already let go of Li Wannian these years!
  There is no comparison between humans and monsters.

Nowadays, Yulang Company is actually developing quite well. In order to differentiate itself from the two-dimensional magazine, Huang Yulang took a new approach and adopted a low-price, high-volume model, adopting the comic assembly line model.

First of all, he established departments necessary for the publishing industry such as printing, color separation, lettering, and binding, and purchased new printing machines and color separation machines to greatly improve the printing quality of comic books.

Then, in order to expand the company's production volume, Huang Yulang divided the comic production into drafting (drawing the composition), hooking (drawing the character's head), piling (drawing the character's body), and filling the head (responsible only for the character's body). hair) and other steps.

This is obviously the American assembly line method.

As a result, their creative efficiency has naturally been greatly improved, and the amount of works they produce every week is much greater than that of two-dimensional magazines.

Obviously, Huang Yulang has given up on high-quality products and returned to the previous model.

As a result, in the comics industry on Hong Kong Island, although Yulang Company is not as good as DreamWorks, it has also crushed many other comic companies.

Not only did it survive the pressure of [-]D Magazine, but it also created considerable profits and launched a series of expansions.

He has acquired and published many magazines and newspapers, including peripheral magazines such as "New Era" and "Youth", entertainment magazines such as "Yulang TV" and "Star TV", and "Hong Kong Island Daily" , "Financial Daily", "Tiantian Daily" and other regular newspapers and periodicals.

Therefore, Huang Yulang can no longer be called a comics tycoon, but a publishing tycoon.

I have to say that Huang Yulang is really talented in doing business!
  In comparison, Shangguan Xiaobao's "[-] Painting Society" can only rely on "Bruce Lee" to survive, and it is difficult to make a profit, let alone continue to expand.

"Teacher, you don't have to be like this..."

Seeing that Huang Yulang had lost his former vigor, Qi Yunjie felt very complicated.

"So negative? I'm not being negative, I'm recognizing the reality! A genius who can rule the neon comic industry and sell comics to the United States, let alone me, let me ask, is there anyone in this world who can compare? Did you get this Li Wannian?"

Huang Yulang's words made Qi Yunjie unable to answer, but he agreed in his heart!

He has never seen such a powerful cartoonist. In his opinion, Osamu Tezuka was very powerful and Stan Lee was very powerful, but they were not as powerful as Li Wannian today. After all, Li Wannian today is only 23 years old, and he is better than himself. Still young!

For such a person who is destined to be written into the history of comics, it really doesn’t matter who comes!
  However, seeing that his teacher was now relieved, Qi Yunjie was also happy for him from the bottom of his heart.

"Teacher, it's great that you think so!"

"Now I just want to make money and live a good life, and so do you!"

With that said, Huang Yulang stood up and patted Qi Yunjie on the shoulder.

"Teacher, don't worry, I'm not that upset!"

"Okay, let's go, let's go to the meeting, we can't stop the pace of expansion!"
