Chapter 215: The Development of the Publishing House
The strength of "Love Call Transfer" made Golden Harvest have to choose to avoid it, and finally postponed the release time, and only started to release it a week later, and at this time, the box office of "Love Call Transfer" has exceeded 18 million, which is simply a bit appalling.

According to this momentum, it is not a problem for "Love Call Transfer" to break through 30 million at all, as the first film to break through the box office of 30 million Hong Kong dollars, it is definitely a symbol of the significance of the times, although critics have mixed reviews for this movie, but the audience likes it.
On January 26, "Teppanyaki" and "Family Portrait" were released at the same time, I don't know if it was negotiated, there was "Love Call Transfer" before, and "Family Portrait" after that, which formed a pinching trend on Golden Harvest's "Teppanyaki", and the momentum of "Love Call Transfer" is unabated and still takes the lead.
It's just that in fact, "Teppanyaki" and "Family Portrait" are very good, and it can only be said that "Love Call Transfer" is too rebellious, which makes these movies a little overshadowed, but they are much brighter than other movies at the box office.
There are a few days before the Spring Festival, which can be said to be in the gap between the Lunar New Year file and the Spring Festival file, and it is also the first shot ahead of the Spring Festival file, and Han Ziguang started the Spring Festival holiday, but he was caught by He Chaoqiong and urged him to draw comics quickly, and now he draws two comics at the same time, one "Saint Seiya", one "Fullmetal Alchemist", one is a weekly magazine, and the other is a monthly magazine, which is still very easy for him.
It's just that Han Ziguang ran around some time ago, and the manuscript was almost used up, and now it is also in the early stage of the Spring Festival, so he must rush to prepare more manuscripts for emergencies, not to mention that Han Ziguang will go to the mainland after the year, if the update is interrupted, it will be a great disrespect to readers.
"Sister Joan! You don't have to be too serious! I'll draw manga well, but what's going on in Japan lately? ”
Han Ziguang saw He Chaoqiong's stern appearance, and smiled helplessly, it seems that He Chaoqiong's attitude towards work is really too serious.
"Do you still know how to care? I didn't expect you to really be the shopkeeper, and you didn't ask at all! ”
He Chaoqiong glanced at Han Ziguang, for her, she had never seen such an unprofessional boss as Han Ziguang, and now the growth speed of the Light and Shadow Publishing House is definitely beyond anyone's imagination, especially in Japan, at present, Han Ziguang's "Saint Seiya" is very popular, and "Chess Soul" has become a phenomenal existence, driving a wave of Go fever, making comics also a big hit, and now basically Han Ziguang is one of the cartoonists with the highest taxes.
In fact, Han Ziguang has now surpassed Akira Toriyama's taxes, but that is still in the case of "Dragon Ball" serialized not long ago, and "Aralei" has just ended, especially "Saint Seiya" is currently a hit in Japan, becoming the number one best-selling manga, and the sales are willing to exceed other comics of the same type.
After all, "Weekly Shonen Magic" is a juvenile comic, and "Saint Seiya" undoubtedly contains all the factors, even if some people criticize its plot for many bugs, but it can't stop the love of teenagers, after all, compared to "Chess Soul", "Saint Seiya" is more popular.
"I know it's wrong! This is because I truly trust Sister Qiong! Sister Qiong is very handy in managing a company, and I am a little messy, you look at the light and shadow entertainment company, I have made a mess, basically they are all fighting on their own, fortunately, all departments have been set up. ”
Han Ziguang praised He Chaoqiong for a while, in fact, it is also the case, now Light and Shadow Entertainment can develop in an orderly manner, thanks to the framework designed by He Chaoqiong for him, otherwise, he would have been a mess long ago.
"It's useless to make a sycophant now, in order to let me get more paid, I don't allow any accidents in the publishing house, now the publishing house is not less profitable than the movie, and now your manuscript fee is more than making a movie."
He Chaoqiong glanced at Han Ziguang, and felt that Han Ziguang really didn't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings, and others couldn't become a god-level cartoonist like him, just by relying on manuscript fees, it was not less than making movies, not to mention all kinds of taxes and peripheral transactions, it was too profitable.
"Making movies is just for entertainment, and I know what my job is, but when I lack inspiration, I always have to find some materials!"
Han Ziguang smiled, for him, the speed of making movies is very fast, basically a movie can be done in half a month, and the Xiangjiang film industry is like this, but it is different in Hollywood, sometimes it takes a few months, or even half a year, and he can't do what he wants, so he can only play tickets in Xiangjiang, and it is not comparable to going to Hollywood, and it is barely possible to be an investor and screenwriter.
"Alright! Now that your business is getting more and more, I can't keep you chained to the publishing house, but at the speed at which you are drawing comics now, a comic should be serialized for several years, and I hope you can continue to create good works after the end of "Saint Seiya" and "Fullmetal Alchemist", after all, the manga artists trained now have not fully grown, and you and Akira Toriyama may be needed to support the publishing house. ”
After He Chaoqiong became the president of the publishing house, he understood the importance of talents, but not everyone can stand out, only those who can really eat this bowl of rice can really carry the banner, after all, the comic industry is also a very fierce industry, if not, it will be cut in half.
Today, "Weekly Shonen Magic" is driven by the troika of "Saint Seiya", "Transformers", and "Dragon Ball", and now it has jumped to the second place in Japan, reaching 2 million copies, leaving Kodansha and Shogakukan behind, and the only head is Shueisha.
At present, Shueisha's sales are more than three million copies, and since the end of "Aralei", sales have dropped slightly, but soon new comics will be on top, and at this time, Shueisha is also aware of the importance of hot-blooded comics, so it also began to vigorously discover the authors of hot-blooded comics.
Even if the Light and Shadow Society takes the lead, the strength of Shueisha is indeed very deep, and it will soon be able to catch up, so it can also be seen that Shueisha's strength is strong, and Light and Shadow Publishing House is the second publishing house in addition to Kodansha to start charging Shueisha's supremacy.
Therefore, now Shueisha is all on the lookout, and finally faces up to this biggest enemy, and at this time the Light and Shadow Publishing House has begun to take shape, but not everyone can suppress it, after all, once the small sapling really grows into a towering tree, not everyone can shake it.
It's just that Light and Shadow Publishing House still has a long way to go, and if you want to challenge Shueisha, you still need a long way to go. (To be continued.) )
