Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 55 The New Magazine
"I didn't expect you to be the long live big...little...teacher!"

Tsui Hark originally wanted to call Li Wannian Master, but seeing how young Li Wannian looked, he had to change his mind. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally used the title teacher.

"It doesn't matter, just call me Nianzi!"

Li Wannian has long been accustomed to Tsui Hark's reaction. In the past two years, too many people have been so surprised after learning his identity.

"Long live? What do you mean?" Lin Lingdong on the other side looked at Tsui Hark with a puzzled face, not knowing what they were talking about.

"Don't you read comics?"

"I just watched "Dragon and Tiger Gate", and I thought it was quite interesting!"

Lin Lingdong's words made Tsui Hark want to cover his mouth quickly. You really dare to say that. Don't you know that Huang Yulang is your boss's opponent?

Hey, he really doesn’t seem to know!

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. However, as I become the deputy director of the animation department, I still have to pay attention to comics!"

"Uh, um... Mr. Li, why did you choose me to be the deputy minister? I am just a director..."

"Of course I know, don't worry, I won't let you stay in this position for a long time. The reason why I let you be the deputy leader is because there are two animations that are about to be broadcast on the TV station, and if one of them has good feedback If you are familiar with it, it will change the TV series. If you can get familiar with it, you will have the opportunity to become the director of this TV series!"

"What? Is "Bleach" going to be animated?"

Tsui Hark on the side suddenly said in shock.

"That's not true. The animation of "Death" will still take some time!"

"Huh? What a pity!"

Li Wannian ignored Tsui Hark's sad sigh and asked Lin Lingdong again.

"Director Lin, how about it? Are you still willing to be the deputy team leader now?"

"I...will!"

Lin Lingdong felt relieved when he heard that he wasn't pretending to be a dog all the time, completely forgetting who just said that dogs shouldn't be treated as such!

"Very well, by the way, Director Xu, your upcoming TV series is very important. Although it only has 12 episodes and the plot is very simple, its comic book of the same name will be serialized on the same day as the TV broadcast. I hope You can pay attention to it!"

"Huh? This comic is going to be serialized in "Two-dimensional Shōnen Weekly"? Isn't it appropriate?"

Although Tsui Hark has not read the comic yet, in terms of the synopsis and synopsis of the story, it is a comic with love as the main line. For such a comic to be published in a magazine, it seems a bit inconsistent no matter how you look at it.

"Of course it's not appropriate! So it'll be in a new magazine!"

"A new magazine is actually out? Is it a magazine specifically for women?"

"Not one, but two, namely "Two-dimensional Girls Weekly" and "Two-dimensional Youth Weekly"!"

Li Wannian and Tsui Hark hit it off immediately, and they talked very much. If Li Wanshui hadn't urged them, they would have continued to talk.

In the end, both Tsui Hark and Lin Lingdong left with satisfaction, and there were three more people named Li left in the office.

"Mr. Li, please go out first. In addition, if Mr. Li from the TV station has any requests, you must cooperate with them. You don't have to report to me!"

"Understood!" Although Li Xuelu was very confused, he did not raise any objection. After answering, he immediately exited the room.

Regardless of ability, ten Li Xuelu combined can't compare to Liang Shuyi, but he is very obedient and never asks why when doing things. Such people are the leaders' favorite!

When there were only two brothers left in the office, Li Wanshui stood up, sat next to Li Wannian, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Nian. There are animations, TV series, and new comic magazines. You Have you been busy lately?"

"It doesn't matter, brother, these are the key projects we are currently working on to revitalize the TV station. If any one of them goes wrong, our plans will all come to nothing!"

"Don't put so much pressure on yourself. If the sky falls, I will still be there!"

"Brother, don't worry, as long as I can be lazy, I will definitely be lazy than anyone else!"

Li Wannian smiled at Li Wanshui, but his tired face always looked a little distressed.

Li Wanshui looked at Li Wannian, patted his shoulder with his hand and said, "If you can't do it, drop out of school! I'll do mommy's work!"

Li Wannian's current work is very heavy, including comic serialization, supervising animation production, company vision planning, etc., let alone a 16-year-old young man, even an adult cannot handle it.

That is to say, it is still summer vacation, and Li Wannian does not have to go to school. If school really starts, Li Wannian will not even have time to sleep.

"Let me think about it!"

This time, Li Wannian did not refuse directly.

Li Wanshui was very happy about this. He continued: "As for the reorganization of the TV station, it is not going very smoothly at the moment. If nothing else, there is great resistance just to cut off the costume TV series!"

"Brother, haven't we talked about this matter? At present, our financial resources are limited and it is impossible for the TV station to develop in an all-round way. We can only retreat to a few subdivisions first!"

At present, it is difficult for the Hong Kong market to accommodate three TV stations. It was under this vicious competition that Jiayi spent a lot of money and eventually went bankrupt!

Therefore, Li Wannian and Li Wanshui had already thought of a countermeasure before taking over the TV station, which was to give up competing with TVB and ATV's superior projects and instead use their own advantages.

What are the advantages of those two companies?

There is no doubt that there are abundant funds and talents. Is it useful to poach people from TVB with huge sums of money like Liang Shuyi did before and produce high-quality dramas to compete with TVB in the market?
Wasn't it Jiayi who couldn't hold on in the end?

In the end, don't you want the Li family to lay off people now?
Therefore, Li Wannian’s plan for the TV station is to adjust its direction and refer to the practices of previous Goryeo TV stations and domestic Mango TV, which is to take a fashionable and trendy route and compete with TVB with low-cost modern dramas, idol dramas, animations and other works. compete.

"Don't worry, I have no intention of backing down! Since it has been decided, it means that I also think you are right, so how can I deny you? It's just that I have never felt the lack of someone like I do now!"

DreamWorks swallowed Jiayi TV like a snake swallowing an elephant. Its indigestion is not only reflected in funds, but also in talent!

What kind of talent reserve can a company that has only been established for two years have?
Therefore, the reality is that there are not many talents, and there are even fewer talents that can be trusted by Li Wanshui and Li Wannian!
It can only be said that DreamWorks is developing too fast. Relying on Li Wannian's talent, he has raised the company to a level that he should not have.

"It seems that we still need to attract talents as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

When Li Wannian talked about this, he was thinking of Mr. Niu who had recommended himself to him a few days ago!
It seems that I have really made up my mind!

"Let's not talk about that! It's already 4:[-] now. Let's go first. Today is your birthday after all. If you have anything to do, we can wait until after your birthday!"

Li Wanshui's words made Li Wannian realize that today is still his 16th birthday!
