Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 422 toBtoC

Since "Jade Dynasty" was acquired by DreamWorks, it has been completely integrated into the DreamWorks comic publishing system, and it has also been greatly improved.

Not only the publicity in newspapers, magazines and media, but also the improvement of sales channels have caused the sales of "Jade Dynasty" to skyrocket, and now it can even reach an average weekly sales of 100,000 copies.

While it has brought huge benefits, it has also brought huge challenges to this subsidiary.

Since this company follows the route of small profits but quick turnover, it needs more comics to publish than other magazines of Second Dimension Magazine.

Suddenly, there was a huge comic gap in the magazine. The artists of Xuanwu Company alone were no longer enough to meet the needs of "Jade Dynasty".

Poor painters at Xuanwu Company, they have been working overtime until late at night every day, and the dark circles under their eyes are as heavy as those of giant pandas.

Unexpectedly, they experienced the blessing of 20 996 years in advance!

Under this situation, the company's general manager Zhang Wanyou reported the company's predicament to DreamWorks Corporation.

After discussion at the head office, they also asked Li Wannian, hoping to get Li Wannian's help.

Li Wannian's idea was also very simple. Since there was a shortage of painters, let the cartoonists signed by the Second Dimension Magazine also join in.

The current atmosphere in Hong Kong is not friendly to cartoonist creators. The concept that working for others is not as good as being your own boss has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Although DreamWorks has tried its best to suppress the development of other magazines, and the vast majority of cartoonists do not earn as much money from starting their own companies as they do from serializing comics in Two-Dimension magazines, there are still many cartoonists who want to try Be the boss.

It can be said that most of Li Wannian's disciples are valued by some investors, and they all wave their money, hoping that he can come out to establish a company.

As Li Wannian's eldest disciple, Ma Rongcheng was naturally unbearable.

Originally Ma Rongcheng had no interest in it, but now he has more money as a cartoonist and has less to do and is close to home. Nothing makes him more comfortable than this!

But when a cartoonist has reached this point, he has basically reached the end. He can't stand the people around him and want him to continue to move up, so he is also very entangled.

At this time, after hearing what Li Wannian said, he immediately thought that Li Wannian was blaming him, and quickly defended: "Teacher, listen to my explanation!"

Seeing Ma Rongcheng's appearance, Li Wannian knew that those people were looking for him. This was something he had already thought of, so he did not blame Ma Rongcheng.

"Don't worry, I don't mean to blame you. In fact, I can understand that you want to move up, and I have no objection!"

Although Li Wannian set the tone first, Ma Rongcheng didn't know whether Li Wannian's words were his true thoughts or whether he was testing him, so he didn't dare to admit it at all.

"Teacher, I really don't have such an idea!"

In fact, Ma Rongcheng told lies here.

There have been quite a few people coming to see him in the past few years, especially from the big water pipes in Wanwan. It's really a waste of money. It's impossible for Ma Rongcheng not to be tempted!

Of course, they are not good people. They do this mainly because they hope that Ma Rongcheng will become the next Li Wannian.

Even if Ma Rongcheng cannot reach the level of Li Wannian, as long as it can reach half of it, it will still be a company with the potential of billions of assets.

It's a pity that they have no idea how special Li Wannian's situation is? It is simply impossible for others to do what Li Wannian is like. After all, no matter how powerful others are, they are only human beings, but Li Wannian is just a fool!

Therefore, their approach is doomed to be in vain and money spent in vain!

"Whether you have such an idea or not, I just want to give you a proposal. Not only you, but you can also inform others!"

"What on earth... happened?"

Then, Li Wannian told the current dilemma of "Jade Dynasty" magazine and put forward his suggestions.

That is, any of his disciples who want to set up a studio can set up a comic studio.

The respective studios they set up allowed them to be bosses and recruit their own painters. From simply giving their own time to work, they became exploiting other people's time.

From worker to boss!

More importantly, these studios do not need to find sales channels or do publicity. It can be said that although they are a company, they save a lot of trouble in starting a company.

After all, for most cartoonists, they may not be a good boss. Even a genius like Li Wannian does not need Li Wanshui to help him manage the company?

As for these cartoonist disciples, if Li Wannian really took them out to start a company, most of them would have to lose all their coffin boards!

But now, with this operation, not only do they have their own studio, they don't have to worry about sales, they just need to concentrate on creating!

It can be said that through Li Wannian's operations, they have completely reduced the cost of starting a company to a minimum and maximized their profits. More importantly, their lifeblood is still in Li Wannian's hands.

As long as Li Wannian wanted to, he could have "Jade Dynasty" stop the comics created by those studios. In this way, they would have only one way to go bankrupt.

When Li Wannian proposed this business model to Li Wanshui, Li Wanshui was so shocked that he surrounded Li Wannian and praised Li Wannian as a business genius!

However, with Li Wannian's mind, he definitely couldn't come up with such a model. He also learned from the practices of later Internet companies.

His "Jade Dynasty" is a platform and traffic entrance, and these studios are like merchants on the platform they opened. Their upstream and downstream ends are controlled by the platform, and they will not give you traffic or customers. , how else do you make money?

In the final analysis, to B cannot do to C, and those who open stores cannot do the platform.

"This is a good thing!"

However, after hearing Li Wannian's explanation, Ma Rongcheng suddenly felt that he could do this!

Originally, he was a little tempted by those big water pipes who wanted to open a company for him, but he felt that he was not the material to open a company. If he opened a company with those people, his company would have to be owned by someone else sooner or later.

But now it's better. I only need to recruit a few people to open a studio. Then I will be like a teacher. I can come up with an outline and an idea, and then I can make money without having to worry about so much. Just thinking about it makes me a little excited!

Obviously, with Ma Rongcheng's mind, he really couldn't imagine the harm of this matter, or in other words, he trusted Li Wannian enough!

Could my own teacher still harm me?

"Since you think it's a good thing, then notify all the brothers and see who wants to do it?"

"Yes!"

Ma Rongcheng happily agreed.
