"So you just came to find me?"

"Yes, teacher, I went to your company, and Maiko told me I could find you here. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Li Shanhe sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the café, raised his hand, and ordered a bitter gourd cake that was said to have a weight loss effect.

The waitress walked over with a red face, jotted down her order, and squirmed for a signed pick.

Li Shanhe laughed and said to the editor-in-chief Fukasawa: "Because there is always free food here, and there are beautiful girls to watch." ”

The hostess holding the tray blushed even more, and in addition to the bitter gourd cake on the tray, she also presented a cup of chocolate sundae, flowing full of chocolate, and she was very appetizing when she looked at it.

Fukasawa Kuan looked at the other party's sundae, and then looked at his bitter gourd cake, it was too discriminatory against the fat man: "Teacher, you don't care where you are...... Well, that's so popular. ”

"I worry every day that I am too handsome, why can't the world pay more attention to my talent, so I need to eat dessert to relieve stress...... Editor-in-chief Fukazawa, you eat it too, your beer belly has been gone recently, and you can't work too hard overtime. ”

"Bitter gourd cake, is this thing eaten by humans?" Fukasawa pursed his lips and said, "Teacher, what are you busy with?" ”

"Fishing."

"Fishing?"

"Yes, Editor-in-Chief Fukasawa, have you ever seen how fishermen do it?" He looked out of the glass wall and said slowly: "When the big fish bites, you can't harvest it immediately, it's too urgent, and the fishing line will be broken; What they have to do is to straighten the rod and slowly release the line, so that the fish can run out of strength in the grappling, so that they can successfully catch the big fish. ”

Well, if your plan is not wrong, the big fish will bite the hook in a while.

While talking, Li Shanhe helped the other party cut the cake in half, and then licked the knife, almost throwing it out, it was super unpalatable.

Confused, Fukasawa listened to it and tasted it with a piece of cake. It was even more delicious than expected, forked a large piece, and said while eating: "Let me remind the teacher that your number has been advanced in the Housing Corporation, and you can go to see the house tomorrow." ”

"yes, I see. Didn't you say you were going to negotiate with me about the manuscript fee? ”

“…… That's right, teacher, you decided to draw four manga, I want to confirm, is that so? ”

"That's right."

Fukasawa said solemnly, "I forgot to calculate the manuscript fee for you before, and you know that our magazine only sells 18 yen, and "Shonen Sunday" is 60 yen...... If you are given an annuity of 4 million yen, the cash flow of the magazine may be affected. ”

"Oh, I'm not short of money for the time being, just give it to me at the end of October."

"Teacher, you are so generous." Fukasawa rubbed his hands: "But I will never owe your reward!" It's a man's promise! However, we have to fight with the primary school hall to publicize, and every penny of funds must be used to the maximum, do teachers accept other forms of salary? ”

"You mean?"

"I got the news that the Shogakukan intends to stick our necks in terms of printing. We're using each other's printing houses now...... I discussed with the president and planned to open a wholly-owned printing house by myself! Hiroshi Fukasawa said with burning eyes, "Teacher, are you interested in buying shares?" ”

"Ah, so good? May I? ”

"No problem! No, it should be said, please be sure to participate in the shares! Fukasawa put his hands on his knees, half-bowed, half-nodded.

The manga artist's annuity is paid on a monthly basis to ensure that the manga artist has a worry-free life on weekdays. Just like Li Shanhe, he can get about 90,000 yen a month.

If you invest in a printing house, it is equivalent to saving him all the money for a year at one time.

After thinking about it, Li Shanhe said: "How much annuity should I take out, and how many shares should I occupy?" ”

"We've contacted a printing shop in the suburbs that is interested in selling. The teacher can use the annuity of your two works as collateral, and as for the shares, I will give you the highest 50%! ”

"I'm taking advantage of you!" Li Shanhe exclaimed, "So, what is the profit of the printing house?" ”

"It depends on the sales of "Shonen Jump", if the orders are sufficient, and the weekly print volume of 60w is reached within a year, your bonus is about 300w. The more orders, the higher the bonus! ”

So profitable? Do you still earn money in a year?

Li Shanhe immediately understood that it was fake to let him join the shares, and it was true to tie him to Shueisha's chariot!

After all, the fight with the Shogakukan has begun to become fierce now, and it is related to the revitalization ambitions of hundreds of people up and down Shueisha, and it is the most important thing to appease his big rear.

"Okay, I agreed." Li Shanhe put down his knife and fork, no longer trying to fight against the bitter gourd cake, he asked with concern, "Funds have always been very short, open a printing factory at this time, can you dispatch the funds?" ”

"No problem, in terms of promotional funds, Shueisha can borrow from banks. Thanks to you, "Shonen Jump" is now selling 32w, and your serialization has increased again, so we are also planning to increase the price by 10 yen next week. In this way, the estimated monthly profit can reach 1100w! And it's all standalone! ”

Has it risen to a monthly profit of 1100w? So exaggerated?

If you do the math, it's possible.

The bigger the magazine sales, the flatter and thinner the cost, and the higher the profit. If there is no financial independence, the money will be handed over to the primary school hall, and even the publicity funds will not be much; Magazines with millions of sales like "Shonen Sunday" are still priced at 60 yen, and they make tens of millions of dollars in profits every week! Monthly income of nearly 100 million! Spending 20 or 30 million a month to advertise yourself is like playing.

As soon as this account is calculated, Li Shanhe feels that in the era of no piracy, doing the cultural industry is simply a money grab!

An idea suddenly popped into Li Shanhe's mind, why not borrow chickens to lay eggs?

I still hold the copyright of the novel version of "The Legend of Yinying" in my hand.,The single book hasn't been sold for a long time.,I originally wanted to maximize profits and release it myself.,But it seems that it's better to hand it over to the other party to operate.。

With a printing house in which he has a stake, plus the distribution can be entrusted to a book wholesale company, and then let Shueisha help him train a bunch of new recruits to focus on the field of novel publishing......

Then, relying on the novels in the mobile phone, he slaughtered all sides......

It wasn't too pretty.

At this moment, he saw Tomoya Shimizu running out of the gate of Sony Records, hurriedly running onto the overpass, as if looking for someone, and then stopped outside the café.

Li Shanhe smiled, and the fish had already bitten the hook.

The next step is to be patient to see if the big fish breaks free of the fishing line first, or if he exhausts the opponent's strength first.

Li Shanhe wiped his mouth with a tissue:

"Okay, that's it, I'll go to see the house tomorrow and sign the contract by the way."

"Then please teacher!" Fukasawa was overjoyed and stood up and bowed.

Li Shanhe walked towards the back door, and suddenly turned around halfway and asked:

"By the way, I recently wanted to register a company...... Editor-in-Chief Fukasawa, do you know where to register an offshore company? ”

"Offshore company? What is that? "Hiroshi Fukasawa was confused.

"Don't you know? Forget it, it's nothing, I'll go first. ”

Li Shanhe sighed, he had already asked the registered agent, and they didn't know anything about the offshore company.

In the era when there was no Internet, the transmission of information was relatively slow, especially the tax haven of offshore companies, which was kept secret by many insiders as a means to improve the competitiveness of their companies, which caused him a lot of trouble at this time.

If he wanted to, he would go out now and get a lucrative Sony record deal right away. But...... He is still a little unwilling, even if he has a one-in-10,000 hope, he hopes to have his own record company and monopolize all the copyrights of his songs.

The past few days of fishing and releasing the line are his last attempt.

In the evening, when he returned to Paradise Village, suddenly the landlady called him to answer a phone call.

"Is it Mr. Li Shanhe? This is Citibank, and I am here to inform you that your cumulative exchange volume in our bank has exceeded US$10,000 and you have been promoted to a VIP customer of our bank. I am your exclusive account manager Yoshiko Ogawa, if you have any questions, you can consult me. ”

Upgraded to VIP?

10,000 US dollars is 3.6 million yen, and for ordinary Japanese, I am afraid that the savings of a lifetime are not so much, but it is only the amount of money that Li Shanhe has remitted to his eighth uncle in the past few months.

He thought for a moment and said, "Is it free?" ”

The other side of the phone laughed: "If you are willing to deposit 30,000 US dollars in our bank, or if the cumulative exchange amount exceeds 100,000 US dollars, the handling fee can be reduced for you." ”

Forget it, it's a small company of its own, and it doesn't have such a big business for the time being.

Suddenly, Li Shanhe thought of something and asked, "Can you help me register an offshore company?" ”

"Offshore company? Yes, the processing fee is $110, which one do you choose, Cayman or Vivi Islands? ……”

Li Shanhe was overjoyed, he didn't expect Citibank to do it! It is worthy of an old capitalist bank!

"So, excuse me, please help me register an entertainment company, a brokerage company! ……”
