Anno Hideaki frowned and looked at the five-story building in front of him, which looked a little dilapidated and had a limited footprint, and after a while, he frowned and said to Yasuhiro Takeda beside him, "This is the Hibiscus Society?" Looks like they're not doing a good job, aren't we're in the wrong place? ”

Hideaki Anno and Yasuhiro Takeda are the current directors (i.e., directors) of G Company, and Anno is also the supervisor of EVA, so they are in charge of discussing the investment with Hibiscus. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, after arriving at the Hibiscus Society, Hideaki Anno's first impression was that the publishing house could not come up with decent money.

"The address is correct, this is the Hibiscus Society. I've tried to understand this publishing house in detail before.,In the last ten years, they've also been brilliant.,Although it can't be compared with Shueisha.、Shogakukan and other big publishing houses.,But in the small and medium-sized publishing houses.,It's also a mixed wind and water.,With complete comic book publishing、Book distribution capabilities.,But it's very evil that they haven't been able to come up with good works in recent years.,This is gradually declining in the gradual loss of readers' popularity.,But even so,Relying on the old foundation left before., They still maintain a bi-monthly magazine with a print run of 100,000 prints. Yasuhiro Takeda said, it seems that he really investigated the hibiscus society in detail.

"But I still doubt that a small publishing house like this can invest in us, if it is only tens of millions, it will be dispensable for our EVA project." Hideaki Anno said.

In response to Anno's question, Yasuhiro Takeda shook his head and expressed a different opinion: "The publishing industry, especially the manga publishing industry, is very profitable, and a publishing house with a history of 20 years like this can be regarded as an old publishing house. ”

This is obviously inconsistent with the facts, Takeda Yasuhiro guessed wrong, Hibiscus Society does not have the kind of excellent works that can make readers remember after ten years, so even if it is the original work of Hibiscus Society that was popular in the past, the peripheral licenses only sold well back then, and now, those peripheral licenses can't be sold at all.

And their new works in recent years,Because of the problem of popularity and quality,Surrounding authorization is not looked at at at all.,As for the new serialized fate and the like,,It's very promising.,But after all, it's only been serialized for two issues.,No one has targeted them yet.,Besides, a work like fate that has a strong ability to attract money.,Miyahara Jing won't sell its peripheral licensing.。

"But according to what you say, publishing houses like this are a bit historical, and their style is generally more conservative, and with the current animation market, it stands to reason that they won't put a lot of money into the animation industry, at best, they may come up with some money to test the waters...... Let's not talk about investors, to be honest, although I was full of confidence in EVA before, but now that I really want to do it, I also have some gains and losses, just like the ****** of the universe, we were full of confidence back then, and in the end more than 1 billion yen was all lost. Hideaki Anno said with some concern.

It's not that G Society has never seen money, when they were first established, the theatrical version of Wang Li Universe Army got more than one billion yen in production expenses - although these money were always forced to overspend because their budgets were always forced to force investors to continue to make secondary capital injections, but as a result, Wang Li Universe Army let them go to the bottom, and led to the long-term debt of G Society, which may be the original reason why G Society has been constantly speculating on EVA with strong earning ability in the future.

"Don't just think about the ****** universe, think about the mystery of sapphire." Yasuhiro Takeda encouraged, he can understand Hideaki Anno's anxiety, in the current environment, it can be said that EVA is a work of G Society that becomes a benevolent person if it does not succeed, if it is really as popular as the ****** of the universe this time, then G Society will definitely inevitably break the fate.

The Sapphire Mystery is a work with a bit of Miyazaki's style.,Or the story was originally a parody of the castle in the sky.,But before EVA,The sapphire mystery was definitely the highest-grossing work of the G Society.,The average volume of that year reached more than 40,000.,This is almost a good anime except for the sunrise Gundam series takeout.。

Although G Society is equivalent to being commissioned to produce in the work of Sapphire, they didn't make much money without copyright, but it is a work of G Society after all, which is enough to prove their ability in animation.

"There is another point that you are wrong," Yasuhiro Takeda continued, "According to the news I have inquired about in the past few days, the old president of this publishing house has retired, and now the management of the publishing house has been handed over to the son of the old president...... If it were the old president, maybe he wouldn't be interested in our plans at all. I have to sigh that Yasuhiro Takeda has great powers, and even the inside information of a small publishing house like Hibiscus Society can be heard, and it seems that his sources are quite reliable.

"Also, even if there is only an investment of tens of millions, it is a must for us now, not a dispensable." Yasuhiro Takeda added that this sentence explains why he attaches so much importance to Hibiscus Society, the money for original animation is too difficult to raise, and they have been hitting a wall everywhere for months, and Hibiscus Society may just be a small investor, but isn't it real money that small investors come up with?

"If we had negotiated with SEG before, we wouldn't have found this publishing house." Yasuhiro Takeda's words made Hideaki Anno involuntarily think of the hardships of the past few months, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"It's impossible, the opinions of our two sides are too different, we hope that they can make up for the remaining shortfall of EVA, at least most of it, but they are only willing to pay 100 million yen, but they want to exclusively take all the peripheral rights of EVA...... It must be said that they have a very good vision, and they can see at a glance that if EVA is sold well, it can bring enough revenue to the surrounding market, but they are too greedy for us to agree to such a request that will seriously damage our own interests. ”

SEG is a toy manufacturer, often making animation comics peripheral products for sale, and companies like this are willing to have a strong sensitivity to the scale of the peripheral market of works like EVA, so they want to take advantage of the difficulty of raising funds for G Society to swallow EVA peripheral property rights, as long as EVA's animation can reach the average level, even if it is only selling the body, they can make a lot of money.

This is because assembled airframe models like genuine Gundams or EVAs can be sold at a dead high price! Gundam models can be sold for 50,000 to 200,000 yen, and it has been rumored that the most expensive gunpla has been sold for $250,000, but note that it's in dollars, which is equivalent to 25 million yen...... The pit dad is not such a pit method, so much money is probably enough to build a real Gundam.

SEG is very shrewd, but after suffering a lot of losses in copyright and paying a large amount of tuition, G is not stupid, how could they agree to such a request, so the negotiations between the two sides naturally broke down.

In order to negotiate with SEG, G Society postponed the meeting with Hibiscus Society, and in the end, they did not get the expected investment, so they still had to return to Hibiscus Society, which is probably the fate of Miyahara Jing and Hibiscus Society.
