Chapter 425: Beginning of the Animation Process
Smith and his son were even more delighted at this time.
Ever since Su Chen took over the Kyoto branch of Dadi Cinemas, their daily box office revenue of "After Earth" has been over 200 million yuan, and yesterday it reached a gratifying 250 million yuan.
At this rate of money-making, they can recoup their investment in less than a month, or even make a small profit.
Oh, the Chinese film market is great!
No, it’s just that the star Su Chen is really great!
Not only can he become famous himself, but he can also make other people's movies popular. Smith traveled all over the world and met such an extraordinary entertainment star for the first time!
At this time , what made Wu Kebo happy was.
Perhaps it was due to the stimulation of his promotions, or perhaps netizens from all walks of life had already vented their anger.
The operation of Chengtian Jiahe Cinemas has finally returned to normal.
However, thinking about the role Su Chen played in this process and the sins he suffered.
Wu Kebo immediately felt unhappy.
In the past, it was Wu Kebo who completely defeated Xingyi and the Zhong brothers.
Now, Wu Kebo is actually being led by the nose by an entertainment star like Su Chen.
How can this be?
He is the most powerful boss in the domestic entertainment industry, but he was bullied by an employee in the entertainment industry.
Wu Kebo felt greatly offended by Su Chen.
Perhaps, Su Chen's acquisition of Luozhou Studio's "Taiwu Painting Scroll" for nothing and the acquisition of Dadi Cinemas are two events that can be used to make something of themselves.
Wu Kebo will not be able to calm down if he doesn't teach Su Chen a lesson!
Su Chen was of course very happy about the encouraging box office performance of "Chinese Partners" and the gratifying performance of Dadi Cinemas' Kyoto branch.
Although it is just a branch, this is the first time that Su Chen has become a major shareholder of a cinema chain.
It's a milestone.
However, Su Chen did not immerse himself in it for too long.
Because he has to consider his next move.
Looking at the storyboard of "Boonie Bears" in his hand, Su Chen estimated.
It’s time to start the animation process of Boonie Bears.
Among the three serialized comic works "Captain Tsubasa", "Saint Seiya" and "Boonie Bears", "Boonie Bears" was published the earliest .
The content that has been published is enough to produce the first season of the animated version of "Boonie Bears".
However, to accomplish this task, one must first establish one's own animation department.
This is more troublesome.
Su Chen thought for a long time, weighed the pros and cons, and finally decided to acquire a mature animation company.
This is more convenient, isn't it?
After determining the route, Su Chen began searching for a suitable target.
At this time, due to the lack of excellent original animation works, many animation companies are actually not having a good time.
After a handsome selection.
Maybe it's just out of a little bit of bad taste.
Su Chen chose "Huaqiang Fantawild Animation Co., Ltd."
This animation company, which created "Boonie Bears" in another time and space, is now just an unknown small animation company.
After some searching, Su Chen finally found the contact number of Ding Liang, the chairman of the company.
However, before calling Ding Liang.
Su Chen still informed Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun first.
After all, it is still the Zhong brothers who have to pay the bill.
…
at the same time.
Ding Liang, Chairman and General Manager of Huaqiang Fantawild, was currently holding a key personnel meeting to discuss the company's future path.
The company is not doing well recently, but Ding Liang still has a passionate heart.
He was not willing to accept this situation, and he hoped to lead Huaqiang Fantawild out of the predicament and create brilliance.
"What should we do next? How should we go?"
"Please speak freely!"
The backbones of the company immediately expressed their opinions enthusiastically:
"I think we should stick to the original route!"
"In fact, we can cooperate with some popular comic book producers. It's also good to change the route!"
"Perhaps, merging our company into a larger and stronger animation company is the best option for us to survive."
“…”
Of course, the core members had huge differences of opinion and had a fierce argument.
Ding Liang was unable to make a decision for a moment.
Perhaps, this is the company’s biggest flaw?
If the positioning is not clear, how can we develop healthily and create brilliance in the future?
Beep, beep, beep…
At this moment, Ding Liang's cell phone rang.
Ding Liang saw that it was an unfamiliar number and instinctively wanted to reject the call.
However, he stretched out his finger and pressed the answer button without any hesitation.
Perhaps, I, who am lost, can find a new opportunity through the outside world?
"Hello, Mr. Ding, I'm Su Chen."
“…”
At first, Ding Liang was a little slow to react.
"Brother Chen...is it really you?"
Ding Liang couldn't believe it. There was no connection between him, the boss of a small, unknown animation company, and Su Chen, a superstar who was extremely popular.
Su Chen nodded: "It's me."
"I want to acquire your animation company. Do you have any intention to transfer it?"
"Of course, you can keep a small stake."
Without any hesitation, Su Chen stated directly his purpose.
Ding Liang was happy at first.
Su Chen is the wealth code of today's entertainment industry. Once you are related to Su Chen, you will be able to take off from the ground.
He just thought that after transferring most of the shares, he would no longer be the one in charge of Huaqiang Fangte.
Ding Liang couldn't accept such a thing.
Finally, Ding Liang said tactfully: "This is a serious matter, please allow me to consider it, Brother Chen."
Su Chen agreed: "Okay."
Every entrepreneur will not give up his or her career easily.
Su Chen understood this very well.
Therefore, Su Chen had enough patience to wait for Ding Liang to make a decision.
Hang up the phone.
Ding Liang told the company's backbone personnel on the scene the news.
The backbone members reacted to this news quite enthusiastically.
"Great! We're taking off!"
"Brother Chen now has three comics on his platform. If Brother Chen turns these three comics into animations, we can take advantage of the momentum and take off!"
"Boss Ding, promise him, why are you still hesitating?"
"I think the benefits of this matter outweigh the disadvantages. Although we have lost control of the company, we can still create brilliance!"
“…”
Seeing that the company's backbones almost unanimously agreed to the acquisition, Ding Liang felt a little chilly for some reason.
In such a melancholy mood, Ding Liang ended the meeting.
Yes, it's time for him to think carefully about his future.
The opposite is true.
The backbone members of Huaqiang Fantawild are all full of excitement and anticipation at this moment.
They shared this exciting news on the Internet.
When the news came out, the internet, which had just calmed down, was stirred up again!
“Oh my god! Is Brother Chen finally going to release an animation of Boonie Bears? I’ve finally been waiting for this day!”
"The person above, you are overthinking it! What they said was that Brother Chen wanted to acquire an animation company, so why did you immediately think of the animation of Boonie Bears?"
"Stop arguing! This is a great thing!"
"Brother Chen has been very active recently! I am so lucky to have met such a high-quality idol in my lifetime!"
"You can tell with your own eyes that after Brother Chen has an animation department, the first thing he will do is to turn his comics into animation."
“…”
Seeing this, celebrities of all sizes in the entertainment industry couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness in their hearts.
We are all in the entertainment industry, so why is Brother Chen so successful?
But of course, those who are smart have already sent congratulatory messages to Su Chen through Weibo.
The most practical thing is to get some traffic.
The entertainment industry is like a world of ice and fire. The hot ones are so hot that you’re dying of heat, the cold ones are so cold that you’re freezing to death, the busy ones are so busy that they’re dying of boredom, and the idle ones are so idle that they’re dying of boredom. If you don’t have the ability and can’t become popular, who can you blame?
"Congratulations, Brother Chen, you have taken another important step!"
"Brother Chen, are you planning to build your own entertainment empire? I admire you! If it's convenient, why not sign me up as well!"
"The entertainment industry is seeing a new beginning, let's celebrate together!"
“…”
Su Chen’s comic fans are undoubtedly the happiest.
They rushed to Su Chen's Weibo to express their emotions:
"I've waited so long and finally today!"
"Brother Chen, please hurry up! I want to watch the anime version of Boonie Bears. I've been wanting to watch it for a long time!"
"Brother Chen is awesome!"
“…”
This wave of online popularity once again made the comic version of "Boonie Bears" popular.
Lu Lanlan was delighted to see that all the data of this comic were rising rapidly.
Moreover, there is no doubt that Lu Lanlan is the person who is most looking forward to seeing the animation of "Boonie Bears". You know, she is the main writer of this comic.
When Lu Lanlan thought about it, she felt like a dream come true and she was at the peak of her life.
Before, she was just a poor student living a miserable life. Unexpectedly, after getting together with Brother Chen, the trajectory of her life would undergo such an incredible change.
At the same time, Li Danjuan and Cui Wenfeng were also very happy.
Since both comics were written by Su Chen, the data of "Boonie Bears" took off while also bringing up the data of "Captain Tsubasa" and "Saint Seiya".
Moreover, "Boonie Bears" has already started to be adapted into an animation, so isn't it only a matter of time before the two comics they wrote are adapted into animations?
The editors of these three comics felt as if they had won the lottery.
It is not a rare thing for the editor that the comics he created can become a big hit.
However, it is very rare that "Boonie Bears", "Captain Tsubasa" and "Saint Seiya" have become so popular that they even directly made the entire comic platform popular!
Of course, they all knew that this was actually Su Chen's credit.
If it weren't for Su Chen's horror effect, any other popular comic would not have produced such gratifying results.
However, Wu Kebo felt a little unhappy when he saw such news.
Damn it, Su Chen, are you done yet?
Having just acquired a cinema chain, now you’re going to acquire an animation company?
Do you want to be the boss in this entertainment industry?
Have you asked me whether I agree or not?
At that moment, Wu Kebo immediately contacted Ding Liang.
"What? Who do you say you are?"
Ding Liang was very surprised and simply couldn't believe it when she received the call.
Wu Kebo could only solemnly reiterate:
"I am Wu Kebo, chairman of Chengtian Jiahe!"
"My group company wants to acquire your comic book company. What do you think?"
Well, this time, Ding Liang finally made up her mind.
This is Wu Kebo, the chairman of Chengtian Jiahe, the largest entertainment company in the entertainment industry today.
"Thank you very much for Mr. Wu's favor, but, sorry, I don't want to transfer my company at the moment."
Ding Liang spoke her mind carefully.
This Wu Kebo is not someone you can easily mess with. Not only is he stupid and has a lot of money, but I heard that he also has a bit of a bad temper.
If you piss him off, who knows what he will do.
In Wu Kebo's view, Ding Liang's words were nothing but excuses.
The purpose is to raise prices.
For a small animation company like Huaqiang Fantawild, there is nothing that money cannot solve.
"I'll give you 50 million! Are you willing to sell it?"
Wu Kebo simply spent money directly.
"this……"
Ding Liang was very surprised.
Why don't you just throw money at me without even saying a few words?
Huaqiang Fantawild is my hard work and my feelings, okay?
Do you know how much it hurts my feelings when you just throw money at me like this?
Wu Kebo felt that Ding Liang wanted a higher price, so he waved his hand:
"Sixty million! No more!"
"Think about it, if you sell your company on the market, how much would it be worth?"
"You made a lot of money on this deal!"
This high price indeed shocked Ding Liang for a while.
Because in fact, for a small and unknown company like his, normally, it would be lucky to be able to sell for 30 million. But now, Wu Kebo directly doubled the price.
He is indeed an example of a stupid person with a lot of money.
However, even so, Ding Liang was unable to make up her mind immediately.
"Director Wu, this is my life's pursuit and hard work. Please allow me to consider it carefully."
"If I decide to transfer, I will contact you."
This made Wu Kebo a little unhappy.
This little guy is really rude. I gave you twice the price, but you still won't sell it. Do you want three times the price?
That's impossible!
That is to say, I am in a good mood today. After today, the price may not be the same.
Of course Ding Liang didn't know that Wu Kebo had so many things in mind.
However, when Ding Liang thought about the future of Huaqiang Fangte, her heart was in a mess.
Will Fantawild Flower Wall be sold?
Who would be a better seller?
This is a difficult problem that Ding Liang is having trouble solving at this moment.
To be honest, emotionally, he would rather stick to his dream and keep going independently, even if he is alone in the end.
But reason told him that this was not the best option.
After suffering from the harsh treatment of society, Ding Liang is no longer the young man with only a passion in his heart.
He began to understand the pros and cons.
The high price offered by Wu Kebo allowed him to make a fortune, but after taking the money, Huaqiang Fangte would have nothing to do with him anymore.
If it is sold to Su Chen, the prospects seem to be brighter, but the price will definitely not be high. You can see this by referring to Su Chen's previous acquisition cases.
