Huang Yuxun's arrangement is indeed from Lin Youlun to "steal the teacher", the "Iron and Blood Tianjiao" TV series is synchronized with the novel, and "Sou Shen Ji" first adapts the comic and then publishes the book, which is essentially borrowing the channels and influence of TV series and comics to promote the novel.

The most influential way of communication in the port of Champ is undoubtedly the film.

Another purpose of Huang Yuyun's entry into the film industry is to use the influence of movies to expand the popularity of comics.

Lin Youlun found that he still underestimated Huang Yuyun, at least on the road of diversification of the company, Huang Yuyun has been far ahead of many people in this era.

"If this film is successful, what will Mr. Huang do next?"

Huang Yuyun didn't expect Lin Youlun to ask like this, in fact, he hadn't thought about it so much, he just thought about it and took advantage of the situation to launch a comic book and make a lot of money.

A look of disappointment flashed in Lin Youlun's eyes, Huang Yuyun didn't notice it, but he was seen by Zeng Zhiwei, who was sitting on the side, he couldn't interject from the previous conversation, but at this time, he quietly kicked Huang Yuyun under the table.

Huang Yuyun looked at it suspiciously, and Zeng Zhiwei took the opportunity to nunu in the direction where Lin Youlun was sitting.

Huang Yulun is also a smart person, and he immediately came to his senses, Lin Youlun asked this, there must be another deep meaning. Realizing his mistake, Huang Yuyun immediately began to remedy it: "I have only recently figured out this idea, and I haven't figured out many things yet, so I am about to ask Mr. Lin for advice." ”

Huang Yuyun's comic book company is an important chess piece for Lin Youlun to build "Ming Yu Bao" into a diversified media group in the future. Lin Youlun had to ask him to dial him.

"Not to mention anything else, Mr. Huang invested in his good friend Film Company, have you ever thought about how to do a good job in this Film Company?"

Huang Yuyun didn't understand why this matter suddenly came to the head of the movie Gongyu Si, but Zeng Zhiwei listened to Lin Youlun's words, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"If Mr. Huang doesn't understand, then I'll put it another way, what do you think are the advantages of the Good Friend Movie Gong Gong Si compared with other movie Gong Si?"

Huang Yuyun was completely stunned, so he had to ask Zeng Zhiwei for help with his eyes, the situation of his good friend Movie Gongxi, of course, Zeng Zhiwei knew more.

"Robin and I also have a couple of good ideas. If there is a stable investment, the expected return of the film company can still be expected. Zeng Zhiwei said this in front of Lin Youlun, which seemed a little lacking in confidence.

"That's all?" Lin Youlun had a sneering expression in his eyes, which suddenly made Zeng Zhiwei a little embarrassed.

"Mr. Zeng, don't get me wrong, I don't mean to look down on you when I say this, but if just what you say can make the good friend film Gongyu Division develop and flourish, then the current pattern of the Hong Kong film industry, in addition to the three major film companies, will not be the situation where Xu Ke, Mai Danxiong, Hong Jinbao and other producers are beautiful."

Zeng Zhiwei was a little angry at first. But hearing Lin Youlun say this, he suddenly lost his temper in his heart. At the beginning, his reputation in the "Group of Seven" in Xinyi City was not weaker than Xu Ke, but Xu Ke's film studio did a good job, while his good friend Gong Yuji was almost on the verge of bankruptcy. Zeng Zhiwei had never faced this problem squarely, but now that Lin Youlun mercilessly raised it, he felt that the gap between himself and Xu Ke had been stretched so far.

"In terms of strength, the independent production company obviously cannot be compared with the three major film companies; In terms of creativity for innovation and change, I don't think there is currently any film studio that can surpass Xu Ke; In terms of the expansion of distribution channels, Mai Danxiong's producer has been ahead of all independent producers...... If there is no core competitive advantage, the company wants to survive in such a fierce market environment. The outlook is worrying! ”

Looking at Zeng Zhiwei's face that changed several times, Huang Yuyun knew that Lin Youlun was not in danger when he said this, this time he was really in a hurry, he invested in his good friend Movie Gongxi, of course he didn't want the money invested in it to go down the drain, he felt that Lin Youlun could see the problem at a glance, and naturally he could point out a clear way for himself.

"How can I run this movie company well. Please also Mr. Lin teach me! ”

Seeing that Huang Yulun regarded himself as a life-saving straw, Lin Youlun just smiled slightly, "Mr. Huang, don't get excited, in fact, you have an advantage in your hands that no one else has." It's just that you haven't realized it yet. ”

Huang Yuyun was stunned when he heard this, "Mr. Lin means ......"

"Comics!" Lin Youlun said categorically.

Huang Yuyun seems to have an understanding, but Zeng Zhiwei is bright-eyed, Huang Yuyun only thinks of adapting the unpublished comics into movies first, and borrowing the influence of the movie to promote the comics, but he still has a lot of comics that have also been published, these are good themes for adapting movies.

Huang Yuyun didn't expect this step, and even the movie company in Xiangyao Port has not yet realized this, mainly because there are many technical problems in comic book adaptations, and without mature technical support, it is easy to draw a tiger and not become an anti-dog.

Thinking of "Shaolin Football" released not long ago, Zeng Zhiwei suddenly discovered that the technical problems that hindered the adaptation of comics into movies had actually been solved. It is no one else who has done this, it is Lin Youlun in front of him, and the Aurora special effects Gongyu Division he created single-handedly has become synonymous with special effects movies in Hong Kong.

Thinking of this, Zeng Zhiwei suddenly became excited, and the comic resources that Huang Yuyun had in his hands were enough to make the development of his good friend Movie Gongyu Division take a big step forward.

"Golden Harvest has invested heavily in the filming of "Blade", which is adapted from the comics of the American Marvel Gong, and the comic book adaptation will be a very popular theme in the future, so I said that Mr. Huang is sitting on Baoshan without knowing it." Lin Youlun took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said so much in one breath, he was really a little thirsty.

Seeing that the tea in Lin Youlun's cup was bottoming out, Huang Yuyun picked up the teapot, respectfully filled Lin Youlun with water, and continued to ask: "What does Mr. Lin mean, the comics in my hand can be adapted into movies?" ”

"It's definitely okay to make a movie, but the key is whether there is value for adaptation." Lin Youlun brought up Huang Yuyun's interest, but at this time he was about to cool him down, "The biggest problem in adapting comics into movies is the ...... technique"

"Isn't this a problem solved?" Huang Yuyun couldn't wait to say.

"That's right, the problem of technical techniques has been solved, but it costs money to do technical techniques!"

"Mr. Lin, rest assured, I have also accumulated some net worth over the years, and it should be no problem to invest in one or two movies."

Seeing that Huang Yuyun didn't understand what he meant, Lin Youlun shook his head and explained, "I mean the cost of the movie. For example, "Kung Fu Football" has invested at least 50 million in special effects production, and these comics in Mr. Huang's hands may not need so much money to adapt into movies, but a movie will cost more than 30 million yuan in special effects production. What about the movie box office? On the premise that the price of movie tickets is not raised, there can be more than 40 million yuan, the theater chain will take away forty percent, and the distributor will take away another two percent, and the film company can finally get only forty percent, that is, 16 million, and the overseas box office dividend is even lower, and the big public office company like Golden Harvest can get three percent, and the general film company can get two achievements, that is to say, Taiwan Bay, rìben, South Korea and Southeast Asia combined, at least hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars at the box office, the film can recover its cost, And with hundreds of millions of overseas box office movies, there will be no more than ten movies in Hong Kong a year. ”

After listening to Lin Youlun calculate the movie account, Huang Yuyun realized that there was such a big risk in adapting the comic book, but he still had a little doubt in his heart: "Isn't there still a European and North American market?" ”

"That's the second question I want to talk to Mr. Huang, the comic theme." Lin Youlun paused, seeing that Huang Yuyun didn't understand it, and then explained: "The comics in Mr. Huang's hand are basically oriental martial arts themes, and this type of movie has no market when it comes out of the Chinese-speaking region. The big-scale Chinese movies of Hong Kong are inherently flawed in the North American market if they want to make real money, and the films adapted from the comics of Hong Kong are limited by their subject matter and are inherently flawed in this regard. ”

Huang Yuyun was completely confused, Lin Youlun was extremely optimistic about the prospects of comic book adaptations, and on the other hand, he said that there are shortcomings in the market for this kind of movie, isn't it inconsistent?

Lin Youlun smiled mysteriously, "Didn't Mr. Huang's original intention in making movies at the beginning was to use movies to promote new comics?" Mr. Huang's advantage over other filmmakers is that your main business is comics rather than movies, and others make movies to make money, while you make movies to make money is only one of the purposes, or even not to make money. ”

Huang Yuyun was very depressed in his heart, who said that he didn't make movies to make money?

Huang Yuyun didn't say a word, Lin Youlun continued: "Losing money and making yelling is a bad thing to others, but not necessarily to Mr. Huang, Mr. Huang's investment in making movies, in disguise, is also advertising his comics, fame is opened, comic sales will naturally go up, Taiyu Bay, rì Han, Southeast Asia such a big market, you can make a movie and lose money, you can go through the comics and earn it back, this account doesn't need me to seriously settle with Mr. Huang, right?" ”

Huang Yuyun suddenly became enlightened, the questions that he hadn't figured out before, he had all figured it out at the moment, Lin Youlun said so much, just to tell him that it was unrealistic to expect comic book adaptations to make money, but comic book adaptations could bring him benefits other than movies.

What Lin Youlun instilled in Huang Yuyun was just a little bit of the surface of the diversified development strategy of the enterprise in later generations, but just these things were enough to shock Huang Yuyun.

Huang Yuyun has always been ambitious to establish his own comic emperor kingdom, but Lin Youlun's guidance made him see the possibility of his wish becoming a reality.
