Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 77 Take it with equanimity
"The Royal Forest Army recruits the Shangguan family!" 》

"From the Tripod to the Chu-Han Struggle for Hegemony, the New Pattern of Hong Kong Comics"

"Huang Yulang: A new starting point, a new start!" 》

Just a few days after Huang Yulang successfully persuaded Shangguan Xiaobao, overwhelming news hit us. Even the TV stations broadcast the relevant news, and the momentum was huge.

However, careful analysis shows that these promotional platforms are all from Huang Yulang and the TVB department.

"Next, "Dragon and Tiger Gate" and "Bruce Lee" will be launched on Infinite TV one after another. We will adhere to the high-quality line of Yulang Company and bring you more high-quality works."

"Okay, turn off the TV!"

Looking at the proud Huang Yulang on the TV, Li Wannian ignored him and looked back at Zheng Jinwen, who was directing Qiu Fulong and Niu Lao.

Now Niu Lao and Qiu Fulong have officially reported to the studio and become Li Wannian's second batch of assistants.

But after all, he was a new assistant who didn't understand Li Wannian's painting style and creative methods. He also needed to direct, and this task was given to Zheng Jinwen.

After all, the work of pasting grid paper cannot be done by Li Wannian himself, right?

On the other side, Zhong Chuhong obediently turned off the TV, but the worry on his face did not diminish at all.

"What are you worried about?" Li Wannian noticed the uneasiness on Zhong Chuhong's face and asked.

"Boss, aren't you worried?"

"worry about what?"

Zhong Chuhong felt that Li Wannian was asking questions knowingly.

Although Li Wannian can now suppress Huang Yulang and Shangguan Xiaobao, these two people dominated Hong Kong comics for nearly 10 years before Li Wannian. Over time, their works are even more famous than Li Wannian's works.

TVB itself is the biggest TV station in Hong Kong. Even if Phoenix TV is trying to catch up, for now, except for some leading programs, TVB still dominates most of the time.

Zhong Chuhong was very surprised that Li Wannian didn't take seriously such a powerful opponent.

"Huang Yulang and the Shangguan family produce works, and wireless stations broadcast them. With this combination, whether it is the quality of the work or the publicity, one plus one is greater than two!"

"Hey, you haven't done any less homework in the past two days? You've become smarter!"

"I'm not a fool! Over the years, I have always been influenced by my ears and my eyes! Wait, why do I think you are hurting me?"

Facing Li Wannian's praise, Zhong Chuhong sensed something was wrong.

"Hahaha, not at all, don't get me wrong!" As he spoke, Li Wannian walked to the refrigerator, took out two bottles of water, unscrewed one of them, and handed one to Zhong Chuhong.

Since Zhong Chuhong came to the studio, the studio's logistical support work has made a qualitative leap.

Not only was the room cleaned, there was water, drinks and food in the refrigerator.

In the past, when these grown men stayed together, they only sent one representative to buy food.

And because of the existence of Li Wannian as the boss, people who buy food can't even mention "Dad", the highest achievement of a man.

But now that Zhong Chuhong has arrived, in addition to buying meals for everyone, she will even occasionally cook for everyone herself.

Zhong Chuhong, a poor child who has long been the head of the family, has good cooking skills and immediately conquered the stomachs of several men in the studio.

A pretty girl with a beautiful heart and good cooking skills. Such a beauty is the ideal type for all men. The newly arrived Niu Lao and Qiu Fulong were instantly attracted to each other. However, after they soon found out that she was Li Wannian's secretary, they had no idea at all. .

Nonsense, that’s the secretary!
The concubine system in Hong Kong Island has been abolished less than ten years ago, so people are clearly suffering from the legacy of the Qing Dynasty in this regard.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, you have to treat it as yes!
"Thank you!"

Zhong Chuhong took the water from Li Wannian's hand and said thank you.Li Wannian took a big sip first, and then continued: "Not to mention that their works are not suitable for adaptation into animation. Even if they are adapted, according to the production capabilities of the TVB animation department, what good finished product can they produce? ?”

In this regard, Li Wannian is very confident.

There is a shortage of animation talents in Hong Kong Island. Otherwise, Li Wannian would not have looked far away and bought a meandering animation production company.

Coupled with the fact that wireless stations have always been stingy, and a prop can be used as a family heirloom for decades, Li Wannian was very doubtful whether the animation they produced would be on the same level as PPT?
Li Wannian is more confident about animation. After all, this is his original job. In this day and age, no one knows animation better than him!
"In other words, no matter how hard they work, the works they produce cannot be compared to your works?"

"That's right!"

"Completely impossible?"

"It's totally impossible!"

When he said these words, Li Wannian's self-confidence almost materialized in Zhong Chuhong's face.

Looking at Li Wannian, who was full of confidence and high spirits, Zhong Chuhong felt that he had discovered another side of this boy.

"Teacher, what do you think of this painting?"

Through Zheng Jinwen's guidance, Niu Lao and Qiu Fulong completed the paintings one after another.

When they first come to the studio, they naturally need to get a feel for it. You can't just let them put on grid paper, right?
"coming!"

Li Wannian stepped forward, picked up the paintings of Niu Lao and Qiu Fulong, and started to look at them.

"Old Niu, the lines in your paintings are too rough and lack variety..."

Unlike Zheng Jinwen and He Zhiwen, Niu Lao's painting skills have never been very qualified. Even in the early "Young and Dangerous" more than ten years later, it can even be seen that his painting skills are very rough.

But Li Wannian didn't care. The reason why he was optimistic about Niu Lao was naturally that he could tell stories. One "Young and Dangerous" could keep him lying down and eating for the rest of his life!

"Aaron, your drawing lines are also relatively hard, but you know how to change them. You are better than Niu Lao in this regard, but you lack experience. Whether it is the paging, composition, or adding dialog boxes of comics, you have made a lot of stupid mistakes. mistake……"

Compared with Mr. Niu, Qiu Fulong's painting ability is much stronger. Even though he has just entered the industry, because he has learned painting and is very talented, his paintings have given Li Wannian a lot of surprises.

Seeing that Li Wannian, who was obviously young, could be a teacher for others, Zhong Chuhong found that she could always discover new strengths in Li Wannian.

He is obviously younger than me...

"Jingle Bell!"

At this time, the studio phone rang.

Ever since he got rich, Li Wannian installed a phone in his studio to make it easier for his company and family to contact him.

"I'll pick it up!" Zhong Chuhong immediately woke up and remembered his secretary's task.

Hearing Zhong Chuhong answer the phone, Li Wannian ignored it and prepared to continue explaining to the two of them.

"What? Mr. Li, Mr. Cai from the animation company called you. Please answer the call!"

At this time, Zhong Chuhong's voice came over again, and Li Wannian had to put down the lecture and walked over to take the call.

"Brother Zhong, what's going on?"

Cai Zhizhong's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Li, five people came to me to resign today, and the wireless station started poaching us!"
