Chapter 591: Founding an Anime Studio
After coming to Jiangzhou City, Xue Yingying came to live in the single apartment she bought, and sent a text message to Li Feng: "Li Feng, I have come to Jiangzhou, are you free for the past two days?"
Li Feng received Xue Yingying's text message and immediately replied: "If you are free, the college entrance examination is over, you can finally relax, where do you want to play?"
"I don't have time to play, and I want to set up my anime studio sooner, so I'm going to start preparing now. Xue Yingying replied.
"Okay, Jiangzhou University of Fine Arts is in Jinshanhu Town, I think let's rent a studio there. Why don't I take you there in the afternoon? Send me your address in a moment, and I'll call the driver to pick you up. Li Feng replied.
"Okay. ”
For Xue Yingying, although the college entrance examination is over now, it is time to relax, but in the face of the rise of the students around her one by one, especially poor students like Zhao Yin, they have now become Li Feng's right-hand men, plus Lin Yuting and others have become the chairman of an investment company in the United States, which makes Xue Yingying suddenly have a sense of panic, for fear that once she falls behind, she will not be able to keep up with the rhythm of everyone.
At that time, she, a former outstanding student, suddenly became the object of contempt by everyone, which is absolutely unbearable, from now on, she must work hard and arrange her work in advance.
So this summer vacation must be put to good use and must not be wasted.
Now, Xue Yingying has made a detailed plan, on the one hand, to continue her real estate career, to look for high-quality property projects in Jiangzhou City with her father, to accumulate resources for the future, and on the other hand, to prepare for the next establishment of an animation studio.
To create a decent animation work, it is definitely not an overnight effort, it must be built on the basis of long-term accumulation, whether it is technical accumulation or management accumulation, including market expansion and the addition of partners, it takes a lot of work in the early stage.
Therefore, if you don't lay out early, then it will be difficult to achieve results in the near future.
Next, Xue Yingying plans to start from an animation studio, accumulate little by little, and gradually develop from a small studio to an animation company. At present, in China, the overall animation environment has not yet developed, both technology and talent are very lacking, compared with the development level of foreign countries, several grades behind, although the competition is not fierce, but if you want to develop, it is by no means possible in the short term.
Now Xue Yingying is not without resources in her hands, the copyright of the Happy Planet series is in her hands, this series has formed a certain popularity in the market with the successive launch of paper books and plush toys, in this case, if it is to be made into an animation work, it is not impossible.
And this kind of animation works are mostly for preschool children and primary school students, the difficulty of creation is not great, the requirements for the script are not high, the key is in the production, as long as the production level is passed, you can quickly gain a firm foothold in the market, after all, the current domestic animation industry is still in a low period, after a wave of creative peaks in the 80s, it has long fallen into a situation of no bright works, and it also makes everyone less confident in the animation industry.
In this case, if there is an animation work that can arouse repercussions in the market, it will soon be noticed by the entire market, just like the "Happy Planet" cartoon picture book created by Xue Yingying before, which will become a hot commodity in the market.
In the afternoon, Li Feng's car came to the community where Xue Yingying lived on time, picked her up, and the two came all the way to Jinshanhu Town. Li Feng took Xue Yingying on a tour of the entire town and the campus of Jiangzhou University of Fine Arts, and took her to understand the future study and living environment in advance.
"The environment here is still very good, as the largest university town in China, there are more than 100,000 college students here, the whole town is full of vitality, and then you are going to study and live here, take you to see it in advance, and be familiar with the environment. Li Feng said, "In addition, the establishment of your animation studio is on me, we will go to see a few places in a while, you can choose the venue you like." ”
At the beginning, Li Feng promised to invest 5 million for Xue Yingying's animation company, but at present, he is only setting up a studio, and he does not need too much money, 100,200,000 is enough for a small studio to open. For Li Feng now, this amount of money is simply drizzle.
The two walked around the town for a while, and chose an antique old red brick house, which was not far from Jiangzhou University of Fine Arts, and the first floor was an elegant teahouse. The second and third floors can be used as office space, which is just right for running a small anime studio.
So Li Feng quickly asked his assistant to rent the small building, and at the same time asked the group's internal engineering department to arrange several professional engineers to help with the preliminary renovation and network construction, so that the place could be officially put into operation.
By the time everything was done, it was already half past four in the afternoon.
"Okay, the studio has been done, and after the simple decoration is done, it can be officially opened. Li Feng said, "But the recruitment and management of personnel depends on you." ”
"No problem, the early studio is still mainly about accumulating experience, there are not too many people, it will not be very difficult to manage, and when you have a certain amount of operating experience, you can expand the scale of personnel and start real animation projects. Xue Yingying said.
"Yes, you have to accumulate slowly in the early stage, and when you accumulate to a certain extent, you can enter a period of rapid growth, and as long as you make one or two successful animation projects during this period, the company can really survive. Li Feng said, "This process will take at least a year or two, and you can't be in a hurry, so you must be prepared to fight a protracted war." ”
For Xue Yingying, the current animation studio is still based on comic creativity, first expanding the market, accumulating experience, and at the same time accumulating comic copyrights for future animation projects, and when the time is ripe in the future, you can start the animation production business and transform to the film and television field.
This process is not achieved overnight, it will be a long process, especially in the period when the domestic animation industry is at a low point, capital and technology have not entered this field, resulting in the slow development of the animation industry, and there has been no excavation of a valuable animation work.
During this period, domestic animation people are slowly exploring step by step, and Xue Yingying, as a newcomer in this field, still has a long way to go.
It was getting late, Li Feng left Jinshanhu Town with Xue Yingying and returned to the bachelor apartment in Jiangzhou City.
Helping Xue Yingying find a location for the animation studio, Li Feng's wish can be regarded as a preliminary fulfillment, and next, he is looking forward to Xue Yingying creating new achievements in the animation field.
