Reborn Cultural Empire

() So on the second day, he was invited to the British Museum, accompanied by the deputy dean of King's College, Cambridge, and a British writer with dual identities of Random House's guest writer and honorary commentator. Hei Ming, a 66-year-old foreigner, was known as the young lion of British literature when he was young. To Yang Yi, the Knight of the Order of Literature, accompanied by such an old man, is obviously the "operation" of Random House for him. <冰火#Chinese

But as soon as the two met, the boy knew that he was wrong. Although it seemed that everything from Random House to the selection of the judges, as well as the preferential treatment he received after coming to Britain, seemed like a one-off Classic capital operation and market-oriented behavior, but just as far as the writer's attitude is concerned, it seems that the other party is more interested in him than some people behind him explain.

"Isn't it strange why an old man who just met yesterday can't wait to invite you again the next day?" Ben Heiming blinked, his eyes filled with many old people who see through life That kind of innocence, there is also a hint of ridicule in it: "Actually..."

……

"In fact, your decision this time has made me doubt your ability again!" Far away on the island of Japan, the actual controller of the Kodansha was mercilessly reprimanding her son. Next to him are the Director of the Editorial and General Affairs Bureau, Suzuki Shomoto, and the current Director of Copyright Affairs Department Takesaku Fuji, who was specially summoned here. The latter is not directly responsible for Sawako Noma under normal circumstances, but because of the circumstances of this matter, He is special, that's why the empress of Kodansha specially called him over.

"Hayi, I already understand what you mean, and there will never be similar problems in the future." In front of Sawako Noma.It was her only son who was sitting tremblingly, that is, the future president of Kodansha Noma Shōnobu. Judging from his current appearance, probably no one would think that he and the woman in front of him are in a mother-child relationship.About Mo thought it was more about the proprietress and the waiter.

"Maybe, I really shouldn't force you to work in the club. Maybe the foundation of the Noma family will not be able to go to the extreme in my life?" Seeing his son lowering his head.Although I couldn't see his expression clearly, I could still tell how panicked he was.It was also because of this that Sawako Noma, who had always shown herself as a strong woman, suddenly felt some kind of inexplicable weakness.Or is it really her own incompetence as a mother?Why is the son that everyone praises in Mitsubishi.How could he come up with such a proposal that he never wanted to see again?

"Mom, for this business plan, I only make judgments based on the current situation. Although my vision is indeed very limited compared to my mother. But please give me a chance to learn and let me understand what is wrong. Where?" For his mother, who is called the queen of the publishing industry, Noma Shoshin, as a man in his early thirties, even if he can be called a promising young man by those old and cunning guys, but only he knows , There is not much time left for him.

After returning to the family Kodansha from Mitsubishi Bank, Sawako Noma originally assigned him a task.It is responsible for liaison with Yangyi culture, and the resulting issues such as copyright and exchange activities were originally assigned to the copyright affairs department and the external liaison department in the past, but now they have to go through Noma Shoshin It can only be executed after viewing.Anyone who has an understanding of the future strategy of the club knows that this is the empress who controls the Kodansha, and is preparing for the handover of power between the two generations.Since the Cherry Blossom Awards in May of this year, that is, after the visit of all senior officials of Yangyi Culture to the island country, Noma Saeko immediately formulated a policy for the two companies to form a strategic partnership for the next ten years. The "Yun Huang" series of comics has been regarded as the main product in recent years.

But precisely under this general policy, because of the news from Huaxia two months ago that the Yangyi culture was targeted by the local government, Shoshin Noma led a team to inspect the coastal cities of Huaxia After entering the animation market, he came back and handed in the planning report in front of him.

The above content is exactly the decision that almost drove the prince of Kodansha into the abyss - to suspend the publication of the "Unraveling" series of comics in the island country, and use other comics with similar themes to preempt the suspension of "Unraveling" In the next market, try to downplay the influence of Yangyi culture and "Yunhuang"; contact the local government on the opposite side, try to backlog the living space of Yangyi culture, and send someone to unilaterally contact the author of "Yunhuang" when necessary Su Wan; building up momentum in the media, forming a situation where Kodansha is not optimistic about cooperation with Yangyi Culture, making the situation of Yangyi Culture even more difficult...

This plan is in line with the characteristics of capital. It ignores any friendship and only proceeds from the perspective of naked interests. At the most appropriate time, it will complete its mission of strengthening itself at the lowest cost, and exchange the sacrifices of its allies. Come more markets and earnings.

But when Noma Shōnobu handed over the plan to his mother, what he got in exchange was not his mother's praise and admiration for him. Contrary to his expectations, Noma Sageko directly showed almost The other person's anger was direct and undisguised, an attitude that had almost never appeared in Noma Shoshin's 30 years of memory.

Hejian Saheko, who should have been happy when he heard his son's sincere confession, sighed uncharacteristically. Even the most ignorant child could feel the disappointment on his face: "You still have to ask me now, why don't you ask me?" What's wrong? I'm really disappointed, Shoshin-kun, maybe I put too much pressure on you, so from today onwards, you won't be in charge of Yangichi's cultural affairs, and Fujio-kun will take over , Suzuki-kun, do you think there is any suitable position in the General Affairs Bureau, let him go there."

Noma Sagoko had an extremely tired expression on his face. Apparently, although his son had nothing to criticize in his attitude, his vision was enough to bring Kodansha into a predicament.It may not be possible to describe it as an abyss, but the decline after taking over the entire club is completely conceivable.

Obviously he was ordered to contact Yangyi Culture, but he came up with a plan to split and annex the other party. When he saw this plan for the first time, Noma Sageko had a feeling of blood rushing to his brain. If this plan was aimed at any company in the island country, then even if it was an impossible plan for Shueisha, she would not be so angry. After all, the possibility is one in ten thousand.But this plan is aimed at the Yangyi culture, which is unforgivable.

It's not that Noma Sagoko has any special feelings for Yangyi Culture, but the other party's nature as a foreign company has already determined the doomed failure of this plan—not to mention the country's lack of publicity and awareness Be vigilant in form, even a country with the nature of an island country will not allow foreign capital to enter the domestic market at will.Moreover, apart from ideological concerns, China's animation market has not yet matured. At this time, throwing one's allies aside or even plotting against each other is a way of self-destructing the Great Wall.If there is no Yoichi Culture, which pays special attention to animation and is willing to accept the existence of animation culture in the island country, even if Kodansha enters the coveted market across the sea, what will it do next?The market development cost of local companies is lower than that of overseas companies in any case. Kodansha should not be that pioneer, which is not in its own interest.

But this kind of problem can be seen by almost anyone with some strategic minds, but my son just can't see it, and he wants to destroy allies on the mainland with one hand. Doesn't this guy know that without Yang Yi After culture, will Kodansha's westward landing plan be infinitely more difficult?

"President, please give Shoshin-kun another chance!" The person who said this was Fuji Takesaku, who was promoted to the head of the copyright affairs department because of the introduction of "Clouds and Wilderness" and the cooperation between Kodansha and Yoichi Culture. , Hearing that Saeko Noma was going to replace Shoshin Noma with himself, his first reaction was not joy but panic. This has something to do with the ethnicity of the islanders, but it is also a manifestation of Fujitsu himself knowing how to advance and retreat.Although Noma Shoshin's ability is indeed not as good as his mother's one-twelfth, but he is the only son of the Noma family after all, and he has infinite advantages in age.If Noma Sagoko retreated, and Noma Shoshin came to power with the help of his family, he would inevitably not give himself the face of this indirectly embarrassing him.Therefore, when he saw that one of the mother and son had made up his mind, while the other was at a loss, he finally couldn't sit still: "Please believe in the ability of Sheng Shin-kun, he just has too little contact with Yang Yi's culture. I don’t fully understand what the other party means to us. If possible, please ask the president to agree. After Yang Jun returns from Britain, let Sheng Shenjun lead a team to visit Huaxia in person. I believe he will understand when the visit is over. President's decision and intention."

"Hayi, please give me another chance." Noma Shoshin also understood that this was the only lifeline for him not to be marginalized, and he immediately grasped and expressed his determination.

Suzuki Sangmoto next to him has not spoken, but in his heart, he may not have criticized Noma Shōnobu and Fuji Takesaku.

Such a huge mistake has been made, how can it not pay the price?Could it be that the performance of this noble son of the Noma family really reassures you, President?

However, the director of the editorial general affairs bureau and one of the non-voting directors of the Kodansha board of directors completely forgot that when he first met the Yangyi culture team, he was not full of prejudices of one kind or another.
