The scene of the comic convention.

Zhang Yongkang sat on the swivel chair in shock, holding a cup of steaming tea in his hand, and took a sip from time to time to relieve his restless mood.

In fact, when the so-called brother of Tuanzi came in, Zhang Yongkang felt a little familiar, and he always felt that he had seen those eyebrows and eyes somewhere.

It's just that because people are wearing masks, Zhang Yongkang didn't ask much.

I never imagined that this young man would be the red-faced man who had just won the Isabella International Piano Competition.

Of course, he has a more resounding name in China - He Xiao!

At this time, as soon as they took off their masks, the entire small booth was boiling, and the little friends who were round and round came up to beg for an autograph.

He Xiao naturally responded with a smile one by one.

After a busy day, he flicked his wrist and sat next to Zhang Yongkang and asked, "How are you thinking about it?"

Zhang Yongkang was struggling.

To tell the truth, he has been tossing for so many years, but he has not succeeded once, he is really afraid of losing, and he has long lost the enthusiasm and momentum he once had.

In particular, the dismal results of "Qin Emperor Sword" are like a hammer smashed on everyone's chest.

It is impossible to say that it is not lost, and the ups and downs of the past five years have long since worn out the original rhetoric.

A defeated army that always loses the battle cannot have a soul of its own.

They need someone who can bring the soul back, they need a leader, they need spirit, they need to be able to take them into battle again.

And now, He Xiao appeared.

He Xiao didn't know if he was the one who summoned spirits, but he wanted to give it a try.

Seeing that Zhang Yongkang was still silent, He Xiao couldn't help patting him on the shoulder: "Don't think about it, Guoman's market needs you excellent creators." ”

"Teacher He...... It's not a secret,The current Guoman market is a pool of stagnant water,We will sink to the bottom when we go in,Can't float up。 ”

Zhang Yongkang opened his mouth, and finally said a bitter sentence: "This is not something we can change, the market environment is like this, the market market for domestic animation, is still "young" as the mainstream, half of the domestic animated film market is supported by them, we adults are oriented to animation, there is no way out." ”

Hearing this, He Xiao couldn't help pursing his lips, and his brows furrowed deeply.

Because Zhang Yongkang is right, in the current domestic animation market, young children are the mainstream.

Their common feature is that they are for "children", parents take their children to the cinema, and the family is lively.

For example, in today's era when the traditional publishing industry is in decline, and everyone can read e-books online, only two kinds of books have increased sales instead of falling.

That's children's picture books and school textbooks!

For these two things, the head of the family often spares no effort to purchase for the child, in order to let the child have a childhood without regrets.

Therefore, "low-child" entertainment products have become a relatively stable market, with children and parents as the main consumers.

This is also the reason why domestic directors keep shooting children's animation works, and the market response is relatively stable and will not take too many risks.

On the contrary, if you shoot a large-scale adult comic to Guoman, not to mention the lack of money, lack of people and lack of technology, there are unpredictable losses to bear.

A Guoman movie usually has a production cycle of eight months, and the investment is tens of millions.

However, in the current era when movies often have a box office of over 100 million, the rate of return of domestic animated films is too weak, and they often can't make ends meet.

Some companies don't believe in evil, so they invite foreign teams to handle and invite famous voice actors to dub their voices, but the final result is also a complete failure, and losses abound.

Over time, Guoman has fallen to the point where no one cares, and those who have money have gone to invest in young animation.

As a result, the Guoman market is sluggish,Compared with the prosperity of Japanese animation,The hope of the rise of Guoman is becoming more and more slim。

Zhang Yongkang sighed, shook his head and said: "This is just one of them, the reason why our Guoman can't rise, in addition to the market environment, there are also scripts, character images, and dubbing teams...... None of this can be compared to others. ”

A series of defeats made Zhang Yongkang recognize the reality, even if He Xiao, the hottest star of the moment, took the initiative to invest, he didn't dare to accept it.

He Xiao didn't speak, and lit a cigarette.

He has quit smoking for a long time since signing with Lejia, but today he really wants to smoke.

Squatting on the ground, he took a hard sip in his mouth, the cigarette butt couldn't help but burn faster, and the slightest white smoke floated up, choking his eyes narrowed.

After a long time, half of the cigarette in his hand was half sucked out, and he spoke: "Zhang Yongkang, there is a saying that things are done by people!"

"You're not all right, to put it mildly, it's 7102 years now, how do you still believe that young people are the biggest consumers in the animation market?"

He Xiao's only one sentence made Zhang Yongkang stunned and turned back in amazement.

"Ten years ago was 2007, not 1997! The post-90s generation has grown up, and even the post-00s generation is almost an adult, in a global market that is getting younger and younger, anything is possible!"

"Low and young is by no means the ultimate trend of the domestic animation industry,Since Riman can open the market in China,Then why can't Guoman? It's just that the story is not moving enough!"

"Qin Huangjian" hit the street because the story is too poor, the rhythm is too loose, and it lacks attractiveness, not the fault of the market environment!"

He Xiao shook his voice, making Zhang Yongkang, a veteran who has been a national comic for five years, speechless.

Yes, if you say a thousand things and ten thousand, the story is not good enough, and the content is not refined enough, otherwise it would not be in such a situation.

"Teacher He, what do you say, I want to fight again!" After a long silence, Zhang Yongkang finally raised his head, his eyes flashing with high fighting spirit.

His soul was recalled.

At this moment, Zhang Yongkang doesn't know if He Xiao, a singer, can really save Guoman, but he chooses to believe that he wants to fight again in the end.

No matter what kind of story He Xiao has in his hand, he will choose to create it with his heart, so that the story will be carried forward on the stage of Guoman.

"How many people are in your studio?" He Xiao glanced back at Zhang Yongkang.

Zhang Yongkang said: "Fifty-two people. ”

He Xiao nodded, showing a smile: "Follow me in the future, I will give you my story in three days." ”

Zhang Yongkang's exhaustive studio is not worth much, He Xiao plans to acquire it wholly, and it can be regarded as having his own business from now on.

Generally speaking, celebrities are still engaged in their old professions, opening studios and being their own bosses, signing new artists, or investing in movies, or releasing singing albums.

He Xiao's path looks a little crooked, it is indeed a movie, but it is an animated movie, which is always a little incompatible with his identity as a singer.

But he knows that his choice is not wrong, and the acquisition of this elite team is definitely his own mistake, and they will return to themselves with a greater surprise.

There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people.

After He Xiao came back from the comic exhibition, he didn't think much about whether Zhang Yongkang could control this Chinese comic, but directly began to prepare the story script.

Of course, he is not a hands-off shopkeeper.

He will be the screenwriter and director of the next animated film, after all, he has seen it once on his black phone and knows what he wants.

In fact, He Xiao thought about taking some shortcuts, directly transferring the video download from the black phone to real life, empty gloves and white wolves, even the cost and time of production were saved, and the film was directly used.

But the facts proved that he thought too much, the black phone seems to be because it does not belong to this world, it can only be seen but not picked, not even exported, after connecting to the computer, the device cannot be recognized at all, and the computer will crash.

This also made He Xiao give up the idea of using his brain, and could only artificially copy the things in the mobile phone little by little.

Turning on the laptop, He Xiao began to write the script of this Chinese manga.

The keyboard was silently tapped, and a row of eye-catching headings popped up.

- "White Snake: Origin"!
