Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 449 Happy Birthday

"...Happy birthday to you~~Happy birthday to you!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

As the birthday boy Li Bangren blew out all the candles on the cake, the whole room burst into applause.

Unknowingly, this little guy has grown up another year, and is now in the third grade at the age of nine.

Next, the lights in the living room were turned on, and the little guy picked up a knife and gave everyone a piece of cake.

Li Wannian also had a pair of dark circles under his eyes at this time, took a piece of cake and sat on the sofa, but looking at him, he didn't seem to have much appetite.

"A-Nian, why have you become like this?"

Li Wanshan and Li Wannian were in sharp contrast as they feasted on a piece of cake.

Looking at Li Wannian who looked like his body had been hollowed out, he couldn't help but expressed concern: "You already have two children, so you should pay more attention to your life!"

"Second brother, what are you talking about? What are you talking about? There are so many children here!"

Li Wannian said angrily.

"Then what are you doing?"

"Isn't it because I've been busy with work lately? I've been too busy for a while!"

In fact, what Li Wannian said was not an exaggeration. If his eldest nephew hadn't celebrated his birthday today, he might not have been able to come out of seclusion.

"At work, you should do your best and don't put so much pressure on yourself. The company is already very big now. Even if you are lazy, it won't go bankrupt!"

Huang Jiali on the side couldn't help but express concern when she saw the haggard Li Wannian.

"Don't worry, Mom, I know what I'm doing, and there's still a little finishing work to do. I'll finish it soon. After I've been busy for a while, I'll be able to relax a little bit!"

No matter what time it is, Li Wannian will always be the center in this family.

"Hey, you better come out quickly, I can't stand it anymore!"

After finishing the cake, Li Wanshan wiped his mouth casually with a tissue before saying.

"What happened?"

Since Li Wannian has lost contact with the outside world, he doesn't even know how popular he is outside now?

"Don't you know yet? Directors in Hong Kong are queuing up to meet you and want you to sell them the rights to adapt the comics!"

"So exaggerated? Why?"

Li Wannian said this as if he were an outsider, not taking himself as the protagonist at all.

"Of course it's because your comic book movie adaptation has become a hit, and everyone wants a piece of the pie!"

"Oh, is Super School Bully released?"

"You really don't pay attention to the news at all? Not only has it been released, but the box office has recently exceeded 2000 million!"

"Really? That's pretty good!"

Even though Li Wannian said this, his tone could not tell how happy he was.

In fact, Li Wannian did not take this movie seriously.

Different from the success milestone of "Parasite", this "Super School Bully" is a typical Wang Jing-style comedy. Although it adds some elements of science fiction and comics, in the final analysis, the core is still Wang Jing's shitty routine. , without any technological progress.

What makes Li Wannian even more helpless is that the audiences in Hong Kong really accept this trick, and the bosses of film companies also like to invest in such movies. This has led to the movies in Hong Kong becoming more and more conservative and no longer innovative.

Later, as Hollywood's internal skills were perfected, "Jurassic Park" completely swept the world when it came out. The last bunker on Hong Kong Island was also blown away by Hollywood.

The glory of Hong Kong film was immediately buried in ruins.

"Then do you want to meet me?"

Li Wanshan saw that Li Wannian was not very happy, so he asked one more question.

"You arrange it, and remember to help me screen it!"

"do you have any requests?"

"Push me if you can. If you really can't push me away, let me see you as little as possible!" "Okay!"

The meaning of Li Wannian's words is quite obvious, that is, if you can't see him, you can see him.

With Li Wannian's words, this gave Li Wanshan room to operate, allowing him to dance in his own way. Presumably, he should be able to get a lot of benefits from this.

On the other side, Li Wannian shook his head and began to think about this matter.

Should I release the rights to adapt part of the comics and let directors from Hong Kong try to film them?

Since there is already a movie like "Parasite" that does not appear in the original time and space, it is not unacceptable for other movies to appear.

"Give it to me, give it to me, I haven't finished reading it yet!"

"Brother, let me take a look!"

While Li Wannian was thinking, the sound of two children playing not far away reached Li Wannian's ears.

Hearing this, he looked over and found that it was Li Bangyi who had snatched the comic book from Li Bangren, the birthday boy today.

"What comics are you reading? You can't even put down Renzi?"

Li Wannian was attracted by the quarrel, smiled and waved to Li Bangren.

In the hearts of children on Hong Kong Island, Li Wannian's status is very high, even Li Bangren and Li Bangyi are no exception.

When they faced Li Wannian, they were quite obedient, even better than his parents.

This is because almost no child in Hong Kong can escape Li Wannian's influence. Boys, girls, those who like games, sports, introverts, extroverts, Li Wannian always has a work that suits you!

Sure enough, after hearing Li Wannian's words, the two children immediately stopped fighting and walked to Li Wannian one after another.

Li Bangyi, who had been arguing just now, also handed the comic book to Li Wannian.

Li Wannian picked it up and took a look and found that it was "Weekly Shōnen Century".

"Do you still understand neon language?"

"Well, I studied for two years after I entered elementary school!"

When Li Bangren spoke, there was still a little pride in his eyebrows.

"You can understand it too?"

Li Wannian looked at Li Bangyi again.

I saw an awkward smile on Li Bangyi's face.

"You don't even understand, why are you fighting with your brother?"

"I...I'm just curious!"

When he said this, Li Bangyi felt embarrassed.

After all, when it comes to parents, all the bad students around the world are the same.

"What are you reading? If you are so fascinated, it can't be my comics, right?"

Li Wannian opened the magazine casually and looked at the latest issue of the comic magazine. To be honest, except for the beginning of the magazine, he paid attention to it for a while, and then rarely paid attention to it.

At this time, he discovered that there were many things inside that he had never seen before.

"Uh... no!"

However, to Li Wannian's surprise, Li Bangren gave him a different answer.

"Then what comics are you reading?"

Li Wannian was a little curious now. There were comics that were more attractive than his comics?

"Now, this is it!"

As he spoke, Li Bangren pointed to the page that Li Wannian had just turned.

"Oh? "Yu Yu Hakusho"? Is it coming out so soon?"

Looking at the familiar character image on the paper, Li Wannian couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
