Chapter 239: Marvel Comics on the Verge of Collapse

Bidding farewell to Qin Ruolin, Lin Feng boarded the plane back to the United States.

Manhattan Airport.

The bearded Walker drove Lin Feng's newly bought business car to pick him up.

"Boss, I watched your game in the national team, haha, that's just abuse, if you want to, you can easily score 100 points." Walker said, rubbing his beard.

Lin Feng smiled undeniably and said, "Your mental state seems to be getting better and better recently. ”

"Of course, with a wonderful boss like you, my work is full of excitement. I've never felt like my life was so meaningful. Walker responded with a smile.

Lin Feng shrugged: "Okay, is there anything I have done in the past few days since I left the United States?" ”

"There are a few endorsement contracts being negotiated, and there are also some invitations from non-profit organizations, oh, there are a lot of things, and I am speeding up the formation of your brokerage team, but I have to carefully select the members, so the progress is a little slow."

Walker got into the car as he spoke.

Lin Feng also sat in the co-pilot.

"By the way, boss, there's a very interesting thing, I don't know if you're interested." Walker said.

"Tell me about it." Lin Feng nodded.

"That's right, an old classmate of mine runs a comic company, but in recent years, the comic industry in the United States has been very sluggish, so his comic company is facing a crisis of bankruptcy, and he wants to sell the comic company, but he hasn't found anyone to take over, I think the comic industry is still profitable......"

"You want me to buy that comic company?" Lin Feng interrupted Walker and asked.

"Boss, I do have this idea, although you are still very young, but you know the path of professional football, there are too many unknowns, so, some professional players will make some investments to plan for the future, and my friend's comic company used to be very famous, and we can buy it now to keep the price very low, this is definitely a good deal, the comic industry is a branch of the entertainment industry, it can't always be sluggish." Walker gushed.

Lin Feng thought for a while and asked, "What is the most popular comic work in the United States at the moment?" ”

"It should be "The Adventures of Odin", "Amazon Adventure" and "Zootopia"" Walker said with a smile: "My daughter likes comics very much, so I also pay more attention to comics, take "The Adventures of Odin" as an example, it was serialized in "Comic House" magazine, "Comic House" sold as many as 500,000 copies per episode, plus the rest of the peripherals, copyrights, etc., this comic alone can bring more than 10 million dollars to the comic company that produced it, so the comic industry is still very promising. ”

After listening to Walker's introduction, Lin Feng's eyes lit up, obviously, the current comic industry in the United States is still in the stage of exploration and young age, and the comics of the superhero category do not seem to have appeared.

"Walker, do you know superheroes?" Lin Feng asked tentatively.

"Superheroes? Are you talking about that movie? Haha, of course I know, and the people of all America know, no, I should say that the people of the whole world know, because he saved the whole world. Walker smiled and said, "Franco's acting skills are amazing, he may be a superhero in the eyes of people all over the world, but why do you ask this??" ”

"Nothing." Lin Feng smiled, he was now sure that superhero comics had not yet appeared in the United States.

"Tell me about your friend's comic company, how much will it cost us to buy it?" Lin Feng asked.

"His external offer is $5 million, but this price should be negotiable, although I am a classmate with him, but I will not show mercy when negotiating." Walker said.

"Five million dollars? What's the size of that company? Lin Feng asked again.

"At its peak, it was one of the five largest comic companies in the United States, but it began to decline after my friend took over, and until now, it should be considered a medium-sized comic company, it has a complete distribution and sales channels, and many animation copyrights, of course, most of them are unknown animation copyrights." "If you want to learn more, I can ask my friends out and you can talk," Walker said. ”

"I'm very interested in the comic company you mentioned, as you said, professional athletes have to plan for the future, you should ask him to meet me as soon as possible, the sooner the better." Lin Feng said.

"The sooner the better? So, what's going on now? This guy must be busy at the company. Walker said with a smile.

“OK! That's now. Lin Feng nodded.

"Okay, I'll call him right away." Walker said and dialed the car phone, and soon the other party connected, the background was very noisy, but when he heard Walker say that someone was going to buy his comic company, the other party readily agreed to meet.

"We're going to his office now, right in the Barton Building in Manhattan's Seventh Block, close to Madison Square Garden."

Walker said, speeding up the car.

Soon, the two arrived in front of the Barton Building, however, before they could get out of the car, they were startled by the scene in front of them.

At this time, about forty or fifty people were sitting quietly in front of the Barton Building, some holding banners, some holding cards, which read about unpaid wages, protests, and so on.

It is not uncommon to protest and march in the United States, but what attracted Lin Feng's attention was the name of the company that these people were protesting against: Marvel Comics.

Marvel Comics, which is one of the two major comic giants in the United States on the planet, has a series of well-known comic book characters such as Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, Wolverine and so on.

In the era of IP explosion, these comic characters are all money-making weapons.

Lin Feng didn't expect that there were Marvel Comics here, which made him have a bigger idea in his heart, there are no superheroes in this world, that is to say, the comic book characters of DC Company, another American comic giant on the earth, Superman, Batman, Flash, Green Lantern and so on.

If Lin Feng has his own comic company, he can bring all the classic characters of Marvel and DC on the earth into his own, so that if he shoots "The Avengers" in the future, Superman and Batman can be teammates with Captain America and Thor, thinking about the harmonious and loving picture, Lin Feng couldn't help laughing.

"It seems that the guy's company is even worse than he told me, and the employees have started to protest." Walker shrugged with a smile.

"Uh, you're saying that Marvel Comics is your friend's company?" Lin Feng was stunned.

"Yes, this is his company, and it looks like we can buy his company for less now." Walker said.

Lin Feng smiled and said with a determined face: "Walker, I'm going to decide on his company." ”
