Chapter 475: Enrollment

The 34 copies of the manga have been released, with an average of 1.19 million copies sold in Asia, and the sales of the last 35 copies may increase slightly because it is the finale, which means that the 35 copies of the manga will sell nearly 42 million copies in the whole of Asia.

The comic "Zhu Xian" is the highest-selling Hong Kong comic in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asian countries, South Korea and Japan, which has caused "Zhu Xian" to become the highest-selling comic in Hong Kong history, but this is not the highest-selling comic in Asia.

At this time, the anime kingdom Japan already has many works such as "Baseball Hero", "Strange Doctor Black Jack", "Skull 13" and other comics that have sold more than 50 million copies worldwide, and they are still being serialized, and the final sales will reach a terrifying more than 100 million copies.

Speaking of Japan, it is indeed worthy of being the kingdom of animation.,Don't talk about the wonderful content.,Only count the sales of comics.,And don't count the whole world.,Just say Japan's own domestic sales.,Before Chen Lang crossed,There were 10 copies that sold more than 50 million.。

"Dragon Quest Dai's Adventure", all 37 volumes, sold 50 million.

"Muscle Man", all 36 volumes, sold 50 million.

"Rogue Kenshin", all 28 volumes, 51 million.

"Football Player", all 37 volumes, 52 million.

"Fist of the Big Dipper", all 27 volumes, 60 million, 100 million in the world.

"Naruto", currently 38 volumes, 75 million, 150 million worldwide.

"Slam Dunk", all 31 volumes, 120 million.

"One Piece", currently 45 volumes, 130 million.

"This is the Kameari Park Police Station in Katsushika Ward", currently 153 volumes, 135 million.

"Dragon Ball", all 42 volumes, 150 million, 300 million worldwide.

In the face of Japanese comics that are still rising, sweeping the world in the future, I believe that everyone will have a sense of powerlessness, Japan's animation industry is supported by the state, and related income has become one of Japan's important economic income, and it is impossible to surpass Japanese comics.

Chen Lang also knows that he wants Hong Kong to surpass the limitations of Japan too much, and it is impossible to achieve it, but animation is an important part of his future territory, indispensable, and now the various products of "Zhu Xian" are selling well, although it is not popular, but it still makes Chen Lang profit a lot.

Chen Lang doesn't think that he can make Hong Kong comics surpass Japanese comics, all he can do is not let Hong Kong comics be swept by Japanese comics, produce a few classic animations, improve his industrial chain, and help Hong Kong comics prosper at the same time, but also bring a lot of benefits to himself.

Now "Zhu Xian" is about to usher in the finale, although the 35th volume has not yet been published, but Yulang International has already delivered the income belonging to Chen Lang, and it is obvious that Yulang International has earned more.

Yulang International and Chen Lang later changed the account sharing method to half a year, that is, every six volumes are settled, and the sales volume of each volume has basically reached the maximum value in half a year, this is the last settlement, Chen Lang has received nearly 17 million Hong Kong dollars in income.

Counting the funds he intends to accumulate in the past few years, Chen Lang's net worth has exceeded 200 million Hong Kong dollars, and when Shaw Brothers sells Shaw Brothers Cinema next year, the funds should be able to accumulate more, which will be more beneficial to Chen Lang's acquisition.

According to Qi Wenjie, the 35th volume of "Zhu Xian" has been completed and is only waiting for it to be released in September, but at this time, Qi Wenjie does not plan to rest, and has already begun to paint "Ethereal Journey", Chen Lang can only express his admiration for Qi Wenjie's enthusiasm.

In August, Chen Lang inspected various companies, because in September he will be re-enrolled, and his sister Chen Yun will also enter the Department of Business Administration of the University of Hong Kong.

LL Entertainment Commodities Company has long been on the right track, with good and stable profits every month, and more money during holidays.

LL Film Company was preparing for the filming of "Merry Christmas" at this time, and the company's deputy general manager Xue Tianlan completed half of the task, and he successfully invited Gao Zhisen to join the film crew, but Mecca resolutely refused to star in "Merry Christmas".

This is also expected by Chen Lang, at this time, Mecca is the majority shareholder of the new art city that is in the limelight, and naturally will not come to help other film companies make films, which is related to the bad habits of the Hong Kong film industry.

The competition between major film companies has involved actor resources, and many actors have been asked not to appear in other companies' films, which has seriously hindered the circulation of actors.

Of course, there are also a lot of "compulsory filming", "free filming" and so on, which can also show how imperfect the Hong Kong film system is.

According to Xue Tianlan, Gao Zhisen also agreed to this invitation because he was not able to get a chance in the new art city, and the momentum of the new art city at this time is unbeatable, even if Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers are united, they can only fall behind, and the seven monsters of the new art city are still at the peak of creation, and many classic masterpieces have been filmed.

When Seven Monsters was filming, the others could only continue to wait for the opportunity, and the opportunity that originally belonged to Gao Zhisen disappeared because of Chen Lang's inconvenience.

Last year, Huang Baiming originally bought the script of the stage play "Happy Ghost", and then adapted it into a movie and handed it over to Gao Zhisen to direct, but now this campus comedy has become the opening work of LL Film Company.

Originally, Gao Zhisen also had the opportunity to make a film, but the movie script was not good, so Huang Baiming kept pressing Gao Zhisen to prevent him from making a film, which was not because Huang Baiming was jealous of his ability, but out of his original intention to reuse Gao Zhisen.

In Xinyi City, in addition to Lei Juekun, the big boss behind the scenes, only Mecca, Shi Tian and Huang Baiming have shares, in the final analysis, the company belongs to these three people, the other four monsters have no shares but their identities are a little transcendent, and the others belong to different factions, which are common in every company, but there is no obvious difference.

Gao Zhisen is now signed in Xinyicheng, but he belongs to Huang Baiming, Huang Baiming has always wanted to launch Gao Zhisen as his right-hand man, but in the absence of a good film, if the works made cannot make money, then it will obviously affect Gao Zhisen's evaluation in the company, and it will also make Huang Baiming's plan to reuse Gao Zhisen fall through, so Huang Baiming would rather be lacking than excessive, and has been pressed until now.

This time, Xue Tianlan found Gao Zhisen with the script of "Merry Christmas", Gao Zhisen was a little moved, Gao Zhisen, who was already depressed because he was suppressed by Huang Baiming, wanted to go crazy when he wanted to make a film, not to mention that "Merry Christmas" is a very good script, and romantic comedies cater to the appetite of Hong Kong fans.

But Gao Zhisen knew about the competition between major companies, so he didn't dare to make a decision in private but told Huang Baiming about it, and Huang Baiming wanted to refuse, but seeing the eagerness and expectation in Gao Zhisen's eyes, he knew that this kid was pressed by himself, so he took the script and read it.

For Huang Baiming, who is still a master screenwriter, he can naturally see the potential of this movie to be a box office hit, and then see Gao Zhisen's eyes and heart moved, although Gao Zhisen is a talent that Huang Baiming has always been optimistic about, but in the end, no work has appeared, and whether talent can really bring the box office, everything is still unknown.

Maybe you can let Gao Zhisen give it a try first, if the box office fails fiascoly, it is also the business of LL Film Company, and he does not have to bear any responsibility, but if the box office is a big hit, then it also proves that his vision is correct, and it can also alleviate Gao Zhisen's current depression, which can be regarded as killing three birds with one stone.

So Huang Baiming finally nodded and agreed to this proposal, but proposed that Gao Zhisen must shoot anonymously, that is, when the subtitles of the crew appear in the movie, a pseudonym can be used casually, and Gao Zhisen's name cannot appear.

After all, if you let Xinyicheng know that Gao Zhisen helped LL Film Company to make films, it will definitely have a bad impact, and it will also affect Gao Zhisen's development in Xinyicheng.

Gao Zhisen also knew that Huang Baiming was thinking about himself, so he also agreed to this request, but Xue Tianlan was a little depressed.

Xue Tianlan doesn't know what Gao Zhisen's level is, but since Chen Lang is named as a director, obviously this person's ability is still good, and through this period of understanding, Xue Tianlan also knows Huang Baiming's love for Gao Zhisen, obviously this guy is a talent.

And the current LL Film Company is exactly what it lacks the most is this kind of talent, especially the director, except for Wang Jing, who is in Shaw Brothers, LL Film Company does not have a director, and Hong Kong's film system is very different from that of the United States, and many film talent resources are not circulated, which makes Xue Tianlan even more worried, so she also has the intention of poaching people.

originally thought that Gao Zhisen would make films for the company, so he would have a certain degree of confidence in bringing him to LL Film Company, but now it is not easy to do this, and it is obvious that the current Xinyi City is much stronger than LL Film Company.

However, things are always relative, and the shortcomings of not being strong may also become the advantages of LL Film Company, because you are the only director of the company when you come, and the company will naturally reuse you, which is necessary, so Xue Tianlan plans to wait for Gao Zhisen to come to the company to help shoot the film and continue his great business.

Now Gao Zhisen has come to LL Film Company to start forming a crew, and Gao Zhisen doesn't have much opinion on Chen Lang having found a movie actor, first of all, because Chen Lang has found Chen Baiqiang and Leslie Cheung, two popular stars in the music world, who are now in the limelight, which will definitely be beneficial to the box office.

At the same time, this is a romantic comedy that does not require high acting skills of actors, but if the appearance is high, it is more beneficial to the box office, so Gao Zhisen has no dissatisfaction, and now his job is to get familiar with the crew as soon as possible, and at the same time start looking for the actor (the role played by the original Mecca).

LL Films also has two other groups, the special effects team and the animation team.

At present, the special effects team is still learning and improving, and now it can only continue to invest money, and I don't know when I want to produce it.

However, the animation team has produced more than 100 episodes of cartoons, and after getting Chen Lang's consent, they began preparations for the production of the anime version of "Zhu Xian".

Although the Hong Kong branch of LL Haishan Rolling Stone Records is currently a grass-roots company, it will soon be able to operate normally because of the sufficient preparation time and two senior leaders, at this time the company is producing Zhenni's latest record, with Chen Shufen and Chen Liuquan here, everything is in order.

As for LL Publishing House, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was being published at this time, and sales were booming.

After looking at the situation of each company, the time also came to September, and it was also the day when Chen Lang enrolled in the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts.
