In fact, as early as the 70s, Hong Kong comics began to slowly flourish, and Hong Kong comics were the same as Hong Kong movies in the 80s and 90s, which was their golden age.

Speaking of the rise and fall of Hong Kong comics, it is not unrelated to one person.

Huang Yulang (1950-), formerly known as Huang Zhenlong, was earlier known as Huang Xuansheng. Hong Kong famous cartoonist, godfather of Hong Kong comics industry, founder of Hong Kong's largest comic publishing group Yulang Group (now Wenhuaxin) and Jade Dynasty, published comics not only very popular in Hong Kong, but also in Southeast Asia, Taiwan and Chinese mainland and other Chinese-speaking regions also occupy an important position, his masterpiece "Dragon Tiger Gate" has been popular for more than 30 years, creating a historical record of Hong Kong's long-form comics; He introduced the design and drawing techniques of this comic, combined with the traditional Chinese comic book form, and ushered in a new era of Hong Kong comics.

In the early 70s, Huang Yulang's century-old work "Dragon Tiger Gate" was published, which drove the Hong Kong comic market to take off, penetrated into the hearts of the people, and became popular for more than 30 years, creating a historical record of Hong Kong's long-form comics, "Dragon Tiger Gate", whose real name was "Little Rascal", was republished in 2000, and was easily called "New Dragon Tiger Gate".

It's just that in 1992, because of tax evasion, Huang Yulang created Yulang International Co., Ltd. was acquired, and I was imprisoned, and when I was released from prison in 1993 and planned to regroup, the general trend has gone, and Hong Kong comics have gradually been swallowed up by this comics.

In 1975, the current "Dragon Tiger Gate" series had just appeared, and it was also a little famous in Hong Kong, Huang Yulang became famous because some time ago, Hong Kong's political axe officially passed the "bad publications law", and the police sent officers to the newsstand to ban and arrest people, and the momentum seemed to drive out the comics.

Now Huang Yulang is still working under others, and he does not become his own boss, creating Yulang International Co., Ltd.

Since setting his goal, Chen Yihua has been looking around for news and investigating the comics that appear on the market.

In June of 75, there was an incident of suppressing comic publications in Hong Kong, and now the comic industry is not very prosperous, many comic publishing houses have changed careers, and everyone regards comic publications as fire and water, and there is nothing good comics on the market, except for Huang Yulang's "Dragon and Tiger Gate", and Shangguan Xiaobao's "Bruce Lee" is still better.

Although the comic market is not very prosperous now, this shows that the threshold for entering the comic industry has been lowered a lot, which is just right for a guy like Chen Yihua who does not have much capital.

In Hong Kong in 75 years, it is not necessary to have much registered capital to open a company, as long as the registration is written, there is an address, and when the time comes, Chen Yihua can open a company with a license.

According to the investigation in the past few days, Chen Yihua knows that if you want to enter the comics industry, the most important thing is to have a publishing house, have your own story, and the painting style is also good, you can do it yourself, but you can't paint all day long, if you open a company, you have to do it yourself, so you have to find a screenwriter with good drawing ability.

'Andy,' As soon as he walked into the nightclub of Third Brother Rong, the sharp-eyed Lu Yan saw Chen Yihua.

It's still daytime, and the nightclub isn't open, but the environment is a little dim, and because it hasn't been cleaned yet, it's a bit messy around.

I couldn't stand the environment here, so I said hello to Third Brother Rong, and Chen Yihua pulled Lu Yan outside.

It's only been a week since graduation, but Lu Yan has already entered the club and has begun to mix in Yau Ma Tei, because Lu Yan is closer to Rong San, so he asked Lu Yan to follow Rong San first to familiarize himself with the environment.

Hong Kong's associations are ranked by seniority, and if you want to get ahead, you can't be the boss at once, Lu Yan's father wants Lu Yan to familiarize himself with the operation of nightclubs first, and then give him a site management after a while.

"How about it, have you asked you to inquire about it?" entered a tea restaurant, and before waiting for anything to come up, Chen Yihua asked impatiently.

"Well, don't worry, I asked Uncle Tang to inquire, he specializes in collecting black accounts, don't say it, there really is" Seeing Chen Yihua's anxious appearance, Lu Yan didn't want to tease him, so he hurriedly said.

'Oh,' Chen Yihua couldn't help but smile on his face when he heard the affirmative answer, although he hadn't arrived yet, he had already taken a big step forward when he heard the news.

"Have you ever heard of "Entertainment Comic Newspaper"," Seeing Chen Yihua's dazed appearance, Lu Yan felt that he had wasted his feelings, and coughed dryly: "This comic newspaper is now bankrupt, the boss owes money to the road, and their company has its own publishing house, and now it is going to make a move."

'Oh, where is the publishing house, how many squares, how much price,' Chen Yihua's eyes lit up when he heard the news he wanted to hear.

Frowning for a moment, Lu Yan said embarrassedly: "This price is a bit high, it costs 50,000, I dispatched the people on the road, the boss refused to reduce the price, and at the beginning he said that he wanted more than 100,000 yuan, as for how many square meters, hehe, I didn't ask in detail, I only know the area around Sha Tin in the New Territories."

Hearing that he wanted 50,000, Chen Yihua's heart sank, this is more than his own prefabrication, in his own plan, the publishing house has about 30,000 yuan, Chen Yihua thinks that engaging in comics will give employees a salary, buy a material, and build a small publishing house with 20,000 or 30,000, and the early stage can start, 75 years of Hong Kong dollars have not depreciated, 50,000 is equivalent to about 500,000 yuan in later generations.

Chen Yihua doesn't know how much money he can borrow from Ning Shujuan, he is just making a budget now, the Sha Tin generation in the New Territories has not been developed, and it is still a small village, but the environment there should be not bad, and the underworld does not have much market in that place, so it is not too chaotic, and it is not very far from Kowloon to radiate the whole of Hong Kong.

'It's okay, let's take a look at the publishing house first, when will you be free' Chen Yihua decided to take a look at the place first.

"Andy, you really think about it, you want to do the job of publishing comics" Looking at Chen Yihua, to be honest, Lu Yanhe didn't understand Chen Yihua's behavior, I really don't know what his head thinks, how he thought of drawing comics.

smiled self-deprecatingly, Chen Yihua knew that Lu Yan didn't understand his behavior very well, and knew that the comic market was not in a recession now, and many bosses had closed down, Chen Yihua felt that it was a good time for him to enter the comics industry.

Chen Yihua didn't know where to start for a while, knowing that Lu Yan had a wide range of roads, and wanted him to try to inquire and see if there were any comic bosses who owed usury or something, it should be very cheap to buy from them, but I didn't expect it to be.

"Let's eat first, and then go to the boss after eating, and then ask him to take us to the publishing factory to have a look" It was almost noon now, so Lu Yan proposed to eat first.

"That's great, Ah Yan, don't thank you for your great kindness" Seeing Lu Yan helping him like this, Chen Yihua's tense mood during this time was rarely relaxed, and he made a joke with him.

"Hehe, who are we, brothers have something to ask for, so we have to do it beautifully" Seeing Lu Yan squeezing his eyebrows while posing as a stinky fart, Chen Yihua also smiled and punched him.

"Entertainment Comic Newspaper" is also well-known in the Hong Kong comic industry, Huang Yulang used to work in this comic club for a while, but later went out, the boss's surname is Wei, is a middle-aged man in his forties, slightly bald, and obese.

"Entertainment Comic Newspaper" can be said to be the epitome of the Hong Kong Comics Society that happened during this time, because this comic club is mainly engaged in pornographic books and periodicals, so it has been hit particularly hard, and the boss is still owing usury to the club outside, and the turnover is not effective for a while, and the entire comic club is also finished.

The headquarters of the comic house is also in the New Territories, and it has rented one floor on a commercial building, and the publishing house and factory building are in Sha Tin.

Looking at the factory in front of him, to be honest, Chen Yihua fell in love at a glance, the factory is located in the plain area, and the road width is very good, the car can drive in, this Wei boss is quite discerning, the factory is about 1,000 square meters, many places are empty, the machine of the publishing house only accounts for a small part of it, there are many vacant land around the factory, and it is not very far from the village.

You must know that Hong Kong land is not very cheap, I didn't expect that there are so many vacant land in Sha Tin, and I don't know how much this land will cost in a few years.

The current factory building is rented by the owner of "Entertainment Comics", and there are still two years left before the contract expires, to be honest, this time is also very appetizing for Chen Yihua.

With a flash of light in his eyes, Chen Yihua began to bow his head and ponder, knowing that 50,000 yuan had actually earned a lot, and the machine of the publishing house alone was more than 100,000, and he had just taken a cursory look, probably because of the sudden crackdown, he found that there were still a lot of materials in the factory that were useless.

Because of the need to do things these days, Chen Yihua also packaged himself to make himself look much more mature, wearing a light blue suit with a white shirt, and shiny leather shoes under his feet, perhaps because of the relationship between martial arts training, Chen Yihua's appearance is not very handsome, but he is very attractive, his figure is straight, which makes people feel very good, and he has a sense of elite when he sees it.

Wei Desheng looked at Chen Yihua in front of him, and while looking at it, he thought to himself, he didn't know who Chen Yihua was, but he knew that the person in front of him would definitely not be able to offend, this was a 14k person who found himself, and he was already thankful that he didn't swallow him. And this person knows at a glance that he has an extraordinary background, and this temperament is not something that everyone has.

"Boss Chen, how are you thinking about it," because of the special dress, as well as Chen Yihua's own temperament, even Boss Wei, who is also well-informed, doesn't know that the young man in front of him is only fourteen years old.

"Boss Wei, the environment here is good, but this place is too big, I can't use such a big place at all, what's the use of coming?" Although the price of this publishing house is already very low, Chen Yihua still wants to try to lower it again.

Hearing Chen Yihua say this, Wei Desheng's face collapsed, and he said in frustration and with a little crying; "Boss Chen, my price is already very low, I really can't help it, if it weren't for the loan sharks owed outside, even if the comic industry is sluggish now, I won't sell him even if I don't open, I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on those machines in the factory, but I didn't use them much, these machines are all semi-new, if it weren't for the fact that the Hong Kong political axe is still suppressing comic publications, no one in the company is willing to take over, I'm waiting for money to save the emergency, even if you are a 14k person, I won't only pay the price of 50,000 yuan."

'Fatty, what are you talking about, looking for death' Lu Yan, who was bored next to him, heard this, picked up his arms and came over.

'Ah, Lu Ye, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, look at my mouth' Seeing Lu Yan coming over fiercely, Wei Desheng hurriedly apologized.

Waving his hand to stop Lu Yan, Chen Yihua said to Wei Desheng: "Boss Wei, I'll think about it for a night and give you an answer tomorrow, you see it's okay." ’

'Yes, yes' Seeing that he had escaped a catastrophe, Wei Desheng sighed.
