Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Premature Bubble Ball
For Fang Mingyuan's request, Miyamoto Foldichi naturally responded. In fact, even if Fang Mingyuan didn't mention it, Miyamoto Orichi would not send adult comics and pictorial magazines that conflicted with Chinese law into China, because it would be difficult to pass through customs. And once it is discovered, whether it is for "Juvenile Monthly" or for Fang Mingyuan, it will be a matter of damaging reputation.
"Adult comics, what is that?" Fang Bin stabbed Fang Ming in private.
"It's just for adults to read comics, not for teenagers. Su Aijun naturally knew what Japanese adult comics were referring to, but in front of so many people, he couldn't explain it to Fang Bin in detail, so he could only be sloppy.
"Fang Jun, this time I came, I have another mission. I hope that Fang Jun can authorize our company to launch the animated version of "Youyou Baishu" at the right time. The senior management of our company is quite optimistic about its future prospects. Miyamoto saw that Fang Mingyuan's face was a little embarrassed, and while sighing at Fang Mingyuan's precociousness, he actually knew that there were adult comics in the Japanese comic market, and on the other hand, he helped Fang Mingyuan change the topic.
Fang Mingyuan's spirits were lifted, and he said with a little surprise: "Mr. Miyamoto, this is about to launch an animated version? Isn't it a little early? After all, the serial has only been released in one issue?" In this way, there will undoubtedly be another amount of money in the account, and for the current Fang Mingyuan, this money is naturally a lot of goodness.
Miyamoto folded and smiled: "Fang Jun, judging from our experience, at most three more issues, I'm afraid that someone will contact us with the copyright of the animated version, and if there are seven to eight more issues, there should be an animated promotional film released, so it's better to prepare early." Since this is the first time for Fang Jun to cooperate with us, after the discussion of the senior management of the magazine, the agency is willing to provide this service for Fang Jun free of charge. In order to win Fang Mingyuan over, "Juvenile Weekly" made a great determination this time. Even if it's a loss, it's okay to shout, but what "Shonen Weekly" lacks most now is its influence in the Japanese comic industry, and the emergence of "Yuyou Hakusho" just provided him with an opportunity.
Fang Mingyuan thought about it, in fact, it was about the same, after seven or eight episodes, that is, nearly half a year later, by that time, the plot of "Youyou Baishu" had also advanced by nearly one-third, and if it was made into a cartoon, there would have to be sixty or seventy episodes. The later ones can be done and put on as they go, and they can almost be continuous.
"Well, I believe in Mr. Miyamoto's morality, so I'll leave this matter to your company. Fang Mingyuan had already made a decision in an instant. If you are not familiar with the Japanese people, it is also a good choice for them to be run by "Shonen Monthly", and they will benefit from their own name. In this way, I can further strengthen my relationship with "Junior Monthly" and lay a solid foundation for my future work.
Miyamoto couldn't help but be overjoyed immediately, he didn't expect Fang Mingyuan to agree so happily, and secretly determined in his heart that he must win the most favorable income distribution for Fang Mingyuan.
Fang Mingyuan and Miyamoto Okuichi formally signed a licensing contract, and the "Juvenile Weekly" magazine officially acted as an agent for the promotion of animation copyrights. In terms of copyright transfer fees, Fang Mingyuan put forward the requirement of doing his best to request copyright shares.
Miyamoto Orichi hesitated for a while and said, "Fang Jun, although it is not uncommon to say that there is no precedent for using copyright as a shareholder in Japan, I have to remind you that it is possible to get a penny by doing so. ”
Fang Mingyuan smiled confidently and said, "Mr. Miyamoto, I believe that as long as your company carefully considers when selecting partners for cooperation and chooses those high-quality animation producers, I think with the quality of 'Yuyou Hakusho', it will definitely be successful." I have this confidence! Even if I don't have a penny in the end, I will never regret it! And if I subtract this expenditure from the production process, I will be able to have more funds to produce and promote it, so that the quality of the animation can be better guaranteed. ”
Seeing Fang Mingyuan's insistence like this, Miyamoto Orichi naturally didn't say anything more. So an agreement was reached between the two sides,
Next, Fang Mingyuan took out another game planning book and handed it to Miyamoto Orichi. Miyamoto took it strangely and flipped through a few pages, and couldn't help but be stunned. He grabbed the planning book tightly and said, "Fang Jun, who are you?"
"I'm sure Mr. Miyamoto has figured it out, it's a casual little game, and I call it Bubble Dragon. Well, just like Tetris, I hope that Enix Co., Ltd., a shareholder of your magazine, can turn it into a real game, and I don't think it's that difficult. Fang Mingyuan smiled slightly, "If your company is interested in this, then the next time Mr. Miyamoto comes back, we can discuss the issue of transferring and licensing it and its successors." If your company doesn't like it, I hope that Mr. Miyamoto will contact Nintendo on my behalf, and I am willing to pay five percent of the commission fee to Mr. Miyamoto. ”
Okuichi Miyamoto was about to jump for joy, as a member of a subsidiary of Enix Co., Ltd., how could he be unfamiliar with Tetris, which is popular all over Japan, he only took a few glances, and understood that this is a good game with the same potential as Tetris, the production cost is not high, and the requirements for the machine are also not high, and it can be launched on multiple platforms.
"Fang Jun, there is no need to wait for next time, I will immediately send this plan back to the company when I return to the hotel, and I believe that I will be able to get a reply from the club in three days at most. Thank you Fang Jun for your trust in me personally!" Miyamoto picked up the plan, and the other party Mingyuan bowed deeply, and he was about to rush back to the hotel.
Fang Mingyuan intended to keep him for a meal, but Miyamoto Orichi politely declined, he was really a little impatient.
Looking at the back of Miyamoto Orichi in a hurry, Su Aijun and Fang Mingyuan could only look at each other and shake their heads.
After some consultation with several people, Fang Mingyuan decided to leave the four assistants brought by Miyamoto Orichi in Fengyuan, and he would come to Fengyuan every week to two weeks to bring the latest drawings and check their work. Haizhuang Town is a small place, and bringing a few Japanese back is purely to find unhappiness for your own family. Although Miyamoto repeatedly assured that the four assistants he brought were all left-wing members and would not make any remarks about Huaxia's unfriendly friends, for the sake of safety, Fang Mingyuan still decided to keep them in Fengyuan, and asked Su Aijun to find them a place to live and a studio in Jiaotong University.
As for the students from the art academy that Su Aijun was looking for, Fang Mingyuan interviewed them one by one, selected eight out of twelve, and signed a contract with them. They will work and study with these Japanese people, and they will be sure to master the work within three months.
PS: I'm sorry everyone, I'm really out of state today, mainly because I'm very depressed -- the reason for the demon spirit has been known, and it's beyond my expectation, the reason is that I'm involved in H! I really want to cry, and the demon spirit can also be regarded as involved in H? But isn't some books HHHH? But this is the decision of the relevant departments above, and there is no way, only implementation, no appeal. So don't make a fuss, everyone. As for whether it will be temporary or permanent, it is not yet known. Keep waiting.
