Chen Bo fights the wolves alone, and those who have been engaged in the advertising industry know that they are basically fighting for wine, and the amount of alcohol in these people is naturally not bad. played a wheel war, but fortunately he was steady, and he was not afraid to drink slowly.

The wine is in full swing, and they are becoming more and more open, Jiang Nanchun has a very strong relationship with them, and the favorite thing between these iron buddies is to complain to each other and expose the truth, of course, they are all innocuous topics.

"Don't look at their current scenery, they still owe money to the network E company." Jiang Nanchun's tongue was a little big, and he babbled.

"This year's market is good, why is there still a deficit?" Chen Bo asked.

"Go, go. Don't listen to his nonsense, it's an old account. Zhu Hailong grabbed Bai Dao, "At that time, I had just come to Haoye, and I encountered the cold winter of the Internet, and there were only 800,000 left in the company's account." Employees have to pay salaries, partners have to settle payments, and advertising fees on the website can't be collected. It's just time for the net E to be in the account again, 2.85 million, and we can't make up the money even if we sell all the cars. ”

"And then?"

"I told Mr. Ding's younger brother about the situation, and he was easy to communicate in Shanghai, but after he pleaded, he agreed to repay us in installments in 14 months, and a fraction of 850,000 yuan was waived." Zhu Hailong sighed and said, "At that time, I really couldn't open the pot, otherwise no one would do this, I remember Mr. Ding's favor." ”

"No one had a hard time at that time." Chen Bo took a sip of wine and sighed, "At that time, I was still working on Sky.com, and the server needed money, and the bandwidth also needed money. The first batch of millions was about to burn out, so I took the plan to Shanghai to find Coca-Cola, and was humiliated. Very Coke gave me a small cart to push and didn't follow, and then I met Li Ziqiang, if it weren't for him, where would there be any Pangu now, and what ants would be searching. ”

In the context of the industry, everyone is at risk, which can be regarded as a common pain point.

If he doesn't say it, others don't know this secret, and they may think that he has been coming over like this smoothly, but in fact, he is a bit luckier than others, and the road has always come out by himself.

"Okay, how's it going?" Chen Bo asked again.

"Last year's revenue was 50 million, 10% of the profit." Zhu Hailong opened his mouth to come, "Now Internet advertising is getting more and more attention, but the discounts given by partners are too few, there used to be a 3721 more generous, after being acquired by Yahoo, the most discounted is your ant search." ”

3721 executed 64 points, at that time there was little competitive pressure, and he was to violently open up the market. Now that so many search engines are competing, if you dare to give sixty percent, Yahoo will simply withdraw from this competition.

"That's not bad, I don't know which venture capital did it?"

"The angel investor is Lao Jiang, and IDG's Zhang Suyang invested $2.4 million in 2000, but took 80% of the equity." Wang Jiangang, the founder of Haoye, said, with some dissatisfaction in his tone.

This is ruthless enough, with such a large proportion of shares, there is not much left for the founder team and employee options, and even if it goes public in the future, it will not be able to share a few hairs, unless the company has sufficient cash flow to repurchase a part, which is almost like drinking blood.

"I'm 200,000, what kind of angel investor is I." Jiang Nanchun smiled and waved his hand.

This topic has fallen into a dead end, Chen Bo is not good at commenting on anything, after all, he is also familiar with IDG, but so many investment partners may not know all of them.

If you don't have anything to say, you will use wine instead, and a few people will drink until two o'clock in the afternoon, just a little drunk, all brewed in the wine vat.

After the end, Chen Bo went to the construction site of the two museums again, and the demolished ruins were very lively, because it was a single building, the amount of work itself was not large, and the foundation was not deep, and the museum could basically be completed and opened by this time next year.

In addition to the valuable land, the most profitable thing is the sale of comic journals and single books, although it has entered the Internet era, but the sales of nearly 4 million copies per week cover the majority of primary and secondary school students, and physical books are still the main force.

The four issues per month are to issue 16 million copies, with a net profit of 1.5 per book, and you can also sell some advertising space, if you add a variety of hot-selling single books, bound books with a net profit of about 30 million per month, and then use this money to feed Meiying's animation and film department, and finally maintain a balanced state.

Xingchen Cool Entertainment relies on the large income of online games, and is about to enter the profitable industry, "Fairy Sword" and "Swordsman" The two film and television works have entered the process of formal filming and production.

"Meteor Butterfly Sword" because it is a stand-alone game, more through the Vientiane management platform to the Internet café terminal, the price is very low, 50 yuan a set of genuine is still acceptable, if it is like the swordsman before more than 100 sets, it will be a little unbearable.

As for the highlight of the second half of the year, of course, it is the home multimedia system in cooperation with Nintendo, and the problem of Xingchen Cool Entertainment directly docking the system development with Japanese manufacturers, if you directly use the original ecosystem, then you will not be a fool to the regulator.

There must be some changes, and the link of this batch of documents naturally has to be handled by Ye Tianhao, who can cooperate with Nintendo, and steal from him, he dreamed of it, not only won the OEM order, but also participated in the design process.

"This is a joint project by Chinese and Japanese architects, do you see anything else to change?" Zou Tao knocked open Chen Bo's office with a stack of drawings and placed them in front of him.

Regardless of whether it is a game or an anime, some design concepts are actually the same, so this office park is also unified in the style of Jiangnan garden, and does not divide the area separately. At the same time, it also draws on the legacy of the Tang and Song dynasties in Japan, and the pavilions and pavilions are hidden between the small bridges and flowing water and the lush dense forests.

"It's not bad, let's just decide, leave a few acres of land to transplant some cherry blossoms and peach trees, and then bid for construction as soon as possible."

This is to fulfill the original promise to Guan Xin, cherry blossoms can survive in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, but Lingnan cannot, plus peach blossoms, what should spring be? At that time, you can hold some games and comic fan meet-and-greets, which is enough to attract a large number of fans.

Qian Shunping has already contacted Chu Zhixiang, the father of the "Black Cat Sheriff", and Director Dai Tielang is reluctant to accept the interruption, it seems that the events of the year still hit him quite hard.

In that case, let's go meet with the original author first and have a chat, I hope these old-timers don't embarrass him too much.

Chu Zhixiang, a member of the Writers' Association, is now 60 years old, a few years older than Lao Qian, and now lives alone in an old and mottled neighborhood in the middle of the city.

"Teacher Chu, I'm here to see you."

Chu Zhixiang has gray hair, wears glasses, wears a white sweatshirt, blue shorts, and steps on a pair of dark blue plastic slippers to water the flowers and plants in the yard. Old-fashioned residential buildings have such a habit of living on the first floor, most of them grow vegetables, and those who grow flowers and raise birds are either retired old cadres or cultural people, and this one belongs to the latter.

Seeing the arrival of the two, Chu Zhixiang helped his glasses and said with a smile, "Yo, it's a little money, this young man is your son...... You've grown so tall! ”

"Don't you dare to say that, this is the new boss of our American Film Studio, Mr. Chen!" Qian Shunping said cautiously.

"Oh, the U.S. film studios have all been changed to private ownership?" Chu Zhixiang's tone was a little disappointed, and he didn't take it too seriously.

"Hello, Chu Lao, I have heard the name of the father of the black cat sheriff for a long time, the kid came to the door for the first time, and brought you some gifts, not a tribute." Chen Bo said respectfully.

Chu Zhixiang saw that his tone was sincere, not like a hypocrisy, and his face eased slightly, "Come in and sit." ”

"Won't you open it and see what's inside?" Chen Bo said instead.

When Chu Zhixiang heard this, he opened the simple box, and the contents came into view, and a touch of joy appeared on his face.

The boutique version of the DVD made by the black cat sheriff, as well as a set of porcelain dolls, not only the sheriff, but also the white pigeon detective, one ear, praying mantis couple and other familiar classic animation images, fired to life.

"This is good, this is good!" Chu Zhixiang's hands trembled slightly, his expression was like seeing his own child, and he said excitedly, "Don't stand outside, let's talk in the house." ”

Qian Shunping and Chen Bo looked at each other and smiled, and followed Chu Zhixiang's footsteps to the back room.

Because on the first floor, the surrounding buildings are getting higher and higher, so the view is really a bit gray, and the house is a little messy, with all kinds of books and manuscripts placed everywhere.

"I have no companion in this life, only these books accompany my old bones." Chu Zhixiang sighed faintly.

"What about your children?" Qian Shunping said.

"When the children are older, they always have their own lives, and I am used to being free."

"You still have the black cat sheriff, isn't this kid." Chen Bo picked up a doll from the box and played with it in his hand, "Unknowingly, this cartoon has been around for 20 years. ”

"Yes, 20 years have passed, and it's hard for anyone to remember me." Chu Zhixiang looked at these vivid cartoon characters and sighed, "You have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and you will definitely not be idle to come to see my old bones, if you have anything to say, just say something." ”

"I grew up watching Sheriff Black Cat, which is a different kind of feeling for me, and it is a kind of eternal and unforgettable childhood memory for the post-70s and 80s. Although Meiying was acquired by me, I never thought of leaving these old traditions behind, and I also learned some of the circumstances of the year through the old money, so I came to you to make amends. ”

"Whatever sins you have to make amends, it's all in the past, it's good that you have this heart." Chu Zhixiang waved his hand.

"Otherwise, this is a classic cartoon, and the novel you wrote has opened a new door for many children and teenagers, and it should not be cut off in my hands. Our country has fallen too far behind in the entire animation industry, why can't we make this classic permanent? This is the inheritance of our Chinese culture, and animation is also an art, not just a tool for educating children. ”

Chen Bo is colorful, the black cat sheriff is different from other cartoons, he is neither preachy, nor so young, is a popular science carrier. This was a very novelty at the time, and compared to the others, it was mostly a long narration to point out the allegory, which was a completely different style.
