Masayoshi Kishimoto rested for the day at the hotel where he was staying. At eight o'clock the next night, a series of invitations were sent out at the hotel where he was staying.

The people who were able to attend were naturally well-known figures in Shanghai's business circles. One of them not only arrived early, but also showed some sincere trepidation.

Chen Tianqiao of Shanda Network only started his business in 1999. Even after a year, his company did not emerge, but did not do well.

He used to be a top student, but he is now just a nobody in the Shanghai business community. When he received this invitation letter from the Hard Gold Group, he was stunned.

He didn't know why the other party invited him to attend such an important business event? Perhaps, this is an opportunity for yourself.

So, he came in a suit and leather shoes, and his hair was neatly combed. Prepare a 10-minute plan presentation for your business project.

When the time came, Masayoshi Kishimoto walked into the scene of the drinking party under the support of his own people. It's not just a formality, it's a necessary social event.

Who wouldn't be busy with the people who are here? If they only come here to eat and drink, they won't come!

The reason why they came here was not to be a vain thing at all. At the reception, everyone got to know each other, chatted a few words, listened to and exchanged relevant business information.

If it's speculative, then talk more deeply. If there is no guarantee of this, there can be a side that reaches a mutual consensus, and then completes an investment.

Masayoshi Kishimoto didn't go directly to Chen Tianqiao at first, but met many bigwigs in the Shanghai Tang business community one by one. They are all characters who can call the wind and rain, that is, the background people who are often called.

The business tycoons in Shanghai came to admire their faces, and they were also aiming for their own title of a Japanese hard gold chaebol. It makes perfect sense to expand the necessary network resources.

Some of them are based in Tokyo, but they also have investments in other major cities in Japan. The business world is not so much about seniority and seniority, but about strength.

Chen Tianqiao saw that there was no chance, on the one hand, he patiently continued to wait for the stitches, and on the other hand, he took the initiative to present his business cards to the hands of these business tycoons in Shanghai Tang one by one.

Masayoshi Kishimoto took the initiative to walk towards Chen Tianqiao, stretched out his right hand and said, "Hello." I am Masayoshi Kishimoto, the chairman of the Hard Gold Group. ”

Chen Tianqiao was stunned for a moment, and then quickly recovered. He didn't expect that the other party, the number one big man, would take the initiative to greet him. He also stretched out his right hand. The two hands were directly clasped together.

"I didn't expect you to speak Chinese so well. Chen Tianqiao said truthfully.

Masayoshi Kishimoto just laughed and said, "You are not the first person to praise me for speaking Chinese well. I like to talk to people my own age.

Peers will have more common language. The old guys are too conservative in their thinking, and they still lack a positive and optimistic attitude towards the development of the Internet.

The topics they talked to me about were all about real estate projects, and the topic I really wanted to talk about was the Internet. ”

"My company is engaged in the Internet related business. At the moment, our main business is focused on cartoons. My idea is to build the Disney of China.

Or rather, an anime industry like Japan. In the field of Chinese mainland, it cannot be said that there is a blank, but there is also huge potential and space for development......," Chen Tianqiao seized the opportunity and began to talk eloquently.

Masayoshi Kishimoto didn't wait for him to finish his words before directly interrupting: "Your idea is very good, but it is too forward-looking. The idea of moving forward is not a good thing.

The reason why China's Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions can have their own characteristic comics and establish corresponding industrial chains is based on an important environment, which is that Hong Kong teenagers are not only influenced by European and American animation at an early age, but also have money in their pockets and a high computer penetration rate at home.

At present, in Chinese mainland, as far as I know, teenagers' pocket money is pitifully small or even almost non-existent. Today, when home computers are not even popular, how do you let them consume?

Do you want to go to an Internet café? An hour's Internet access fee is also a burden for them. It's not realistic for you to pay extra to watch the manga!

It's these people who are your real target group. You can't let people who don't have the Internet come to watch your site's cartoons, right?

In their minds, instead of spending the money they paid to read comics online, it is better to buy a pack of cigarettes to smoke. They will feel more comfortable and comfortable.

Furthermore, did you go to an Internet café and do an actual survey? Do you see that many of the teenagers who are on the Internet are reading comics on the Internet.

It's almost all computer games. My advice to you is to make a transition to making computer games and online games.

Otherwise, your company is doomed. If you accept my suggestion to transform your main business, I can make a venture capital investment in your company. This is no joke. ”

He said these words not without basis. Even if China currently has an established small circle of anime lovers, it is still under the surface.

In their hearts, even if they like this kind of thing, they won't spend any money. Those who can spend money are either fanatical enthusiasts or come from wealthy families.

The former cut back on food and clothing for the sake of interests and hobbies, and even too many people only eat one meal a day. The latter will fly directly to Akihabara, Tokyo, Japan.

The cultivation of this market must also be based on the rapid economic development of Chinese mainland. The material is not fully satisfied, so what about considering the spiritual enjoyment?

I know very well that Shanghai has a two-dimensional consumer market, and that is also a decade or two later. This is mainly influenced by Japanese anime culture.

Of course, the most important thing is that only when there is money in the pockets of consumer groups will they have purchasing power, which will lead to the formation and development of the market. The main beginning of this is to start from the post-80s.

Nowadays, if a person goes out on the street in two-dimensional clothes, he is guaranteed to be regarded as a psychopath. This is a huge contrast to a decade or two later. The first edition of China Joy was held four years later, in Beijing in 2004. Chen Tianqiao immediately showed a stunned side. He originally thought that his idea was very good, but he was unexpectedly criticized by the other party.

He wasn't unconvinced in his heart, after all, Kishimoto was completely to the root. I really didn't go into the Internet cafes on the streets of Shanghai to do serious field research.
