Chapter 618: Ambition about the comic industry
Li Huanhuan put the mobile phone in the pocket of his clothes, looked at Lin Dali, who was sitting next to him, and said: "Refuting the rumors, don't worry, wait for him to brew for two days, I was worried that Ren Na's matter would cause some trouble before I came back, but I didn't expect the attention of this matter to be suppressed by my scandal, which is really speechless!" ”
"I'm speechless, you're a celebrity anyway, can't you be careful when you go out on a date?" Lin Dali said helplessly, but his eyes secretly observed Han Jiaren's eyes, looking at Han Jiaren's face crimson, and a flash of shyness, Lin Dali is now completely sure that the two are really together.
Li Huanhuan held the notebook next to him on his lap and continued to rummage, among which there was more and more news about himself, and the scandal between Han Jia and Li Huanhuan was also getting more and more intense, and even some strange things began to tell a few years ago, the two may have known each other, but because the sister-brother love blocked the two, but now the two are more mature, so they decided to be together, and Han Jiaren also deceived Li Huanhuan One thing, that is, as a woman who helped Li Huanhuan become a man, she became pregnant with Li Huanhuan's flesh and blood after that......
Looking at this kind of nonsense topic discussion, Li Huanhuan cried or laughed, these people really dared to say it.
"Forget it,I'm not here to talk to you.,It's mainly about the comic department.,During this time, the comic station's visit to wèn has become more and more stable.,The two days of the nine-tailed fox update can reach 180W per day.,But the days of non-renewal,On average, the independent visit to wènIP is probably only less than 20W.,Although there are a lot of cartoonists added in the background.,But most of them are not professional.,It's a little better to draw some four-panel comics.,If this continues,Wait for the end of the nine-tailed fox TV series.。 The number of visitors to the website is estimated to drop by another notch, so isn't it time for you to think about it! ”
Lin Dali is very serious at the moment, although he doesn't value this comic station as much as Li Huanhuan, but through guò's research on the number of websites, he attaches more importance to the effect of bundling users with the comic station, but unfortunately the current registered users. After the outbreak of activity in the early stage,It's now completely silent.,The most real reason is that there are too few works.,There's only one that can really be called a comic work.,How bumpy is this.。
Li Huanhuan thought about it for a while and said, "How is the comic department expanding, didn't you want to recruit people last time?" ”
Lin Dali replied: "The recruitment of people is almost complete, but they are all inexperienced young people, and now the comic department has been dispersed, and "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox" has been completely handed over to Park Ji-eun, Zhu Dong-geun and three new assistants to create. At the same time, the other three assistants are now working with Li Zhihu to complete the setting and opening story of the new work, and Zhu Donggen, the junior brother, also wants to upload his own comics, which is the one you said was good before! ”
There are more people in the comics department now, but in fact, there is no way to start a real high-speed operation, and the cartoonists who are really a little famous, of course, will not come to apply, and some students who have graduated from the art department have very good painting skills. But to become a master of comics in a day or two, this is also nonsense. So now the comic department is still below the average level after everyone regroupes, and of course, in Korea, this kind of original comic studio is not too bad.
Of course, the really good artists are still working in game companies and animation companies, and making original comics in Korea is really not a good way out.
Of course I would like to apply. Relatively speaking, it is also relatively talented, like the six people recruited by HAPPY recently, in fact, only three of them are directly recruited, and the other three are drawn from the Happiness Academy, which is not considered full-time. They still have classes to attend in school, but they have reduced a lot, and it can also be seen as practical training.
The idealized future of Li Huanhuan is that the comic department will slowly develop and grow, and finally develop independently into an industrial chain, derive various products from comics, and develop and grow, and become a real comic giant. Film and television dramas, and then you can directly connect with the school and recruit new people from the school every year, which seems to be a very simple thing, but it is even countless times more difficult to succeed than Li Huanhuan to save SAFE.
In Asia, Japan's ACG culture can be said to completely envelop this sky, but it is not true that there are no other countries in this sky, and relatively speaking, South Korea has now become the country with the second largest number of manga magazines in Asia.
For South Korea, the model of the construction of the animation industry chain is to follow the objective law of "first comic and then move", the starting point of Korean animation creation is early, and it has a complete industrial chain, from creation to packaging to listing, a series of publicity are very systematic, many successful comics were quickly made into film and television works, popular across the country and even throughout Asia, and some successful novels have also quickly created comic versions and TV drama versions, and in recent years, the popularity of Korean dramas has also led to the development of Korean comics.
At present, South Korea's comic industrialization is highly developed, the entire industrial chain is very perfect, and its national animation and game industry has a market share of 35% in China, becoming one of the six pillar industries of South Korea's economy.
Currently, there are 62 animation companies registered with the Association of Animation Makers, and more than 20,000 people are engaged in animation production.
But in reality, Korean original comics are far less valuable than the derivative value of zào it creates, and the same Korean animation companies do not say that they draw comics and do animation in China, on the contrary, outsourcing work is their main development direction, such as making comics for game companies, doing overseas movies in the future, like many world-renowned animations now, many of which are painted by Koreans, including famous works such as "Beauty and the Beast" created by Disney in the United States.
And in South Korea, although the comic industry is very huge, but compared to the game industry, it is not a level at all, and the same comics that are generally more popular in South Korea can rarely be seen like those images and types in Japanese comics, such as hot-blooded comics, battle comics, but there are very few, relatively speaking, all kinds of fairy tales innocent comics, horror comics, funny comics, and black crotch comics are the mainstream of Korean comics, and most of them have been remade into film and television dramas.
TV dramas such as "Tea Mother", "Full House of Romance", "Palace", "War of Money" and "Mr. Lovely", which are popular in South Korea, are all adapted from comics, as well as movies such as "Beauty is Troubled", "Old Boy", "Old Qian", "Diner", "Apartment", etc., are also adapted from the comics.
Relatively speaking, the Korean comic industry can be said to have first-class technology, first-class talents, and first-class government backing, but if you really want to say that your original products are third-rate, there is no way that the pattern is too small, so there are basically no comics that can really be popular abroad in South Korea, even if they are well-known overseas, they are all relatively niche types.
That's why Li Huanhuan feels that he has a chance to succeed, although it is very difficult, but in the case of sufficient funds, Li Huanhuan believes that the comics that go to the bloody battle are very promising, and secondly, for the question of how to ensure the number of works in the future, Li Huanhuan is actually very optimistic about the adaptation of YY novels in China.
But Li Huanhuan can't really buy the copyright of every work, according to the ridiculous pride of Koreans, this is tantamount to self-destruction of the Great Wall, but this is not a strict problem, in Li Huanhuan's view, as long as the cartoonists in the company are cultivated, they will be trained to upgrade and fight bosses, plus the concept of works with various connotation attributes of base, rot and meat.
So a talented guy like Li Zhihu,You can also draw YY-flow comics.,Of course, some people may say that there is no connotation.,But there's no connotation in every work.,Is it all connotative when I take out the anime?
Like Li Zhihu because of the theme of "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox", and even when creating, he secretly drew an alternative version of the story, although the story is very short, but the main line is also very simple and fragrant, that is, the nine-tailed fox's road to hunting, absorbing the essence of men to become immortals, to say that this idea has no connotation, Li Zhihu will definitely scold a few words, in his opinion, is 'meat' not connotation?
Of course, this is not to say that there are really no other types of Korean comics, and the derivative value of comics is very high, but Korean comics are average, but on the contrary, in addition to comics, online games, flash animation, TV series, or popular special products are all made into anime, and the diverse materials for this kind of anime are slowly expanding.
And "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox" created by Li Huanhuan is actually such a model, although it is basically broadcast and updated simultaneously, there is no doubt that the first batch of viewers is from the TV group.
However, even so, except for game comics, other adapted comics are still relatively not much different from the direction created by Korean manga artists today.
Well, these are just examples, of course, these are also the company's future direction and ideas, at the same time, after Li Huanhuan and Lin Dali discussed, Lin Dali felt that this was indeed a very good idea, if the online platform can be successful within two years, when the popular works in the station can naturally create zào derivative products, and even Lin Dali has the idea of letting Li Huanhuan set up a game company in the future, there are really many such talents in South Korea, but this is the macro ambition of the future, for now, the company's unified goal is to ...... Attack on Titan.
"The popularity brought by "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox" will decline with the ending of the TV series, and it is indeed time to open a new comic!" Li Huanhuan replied with some seriousness. (To be continued......)
