"Huh? What's your opinion? ”

Seeing that the three of them didn't speak, Bao Jiyi couldn't help but ask again.

The three people on the other side also knew that they had to give Bao Jiyi an answer, otherwise, today's meeting was estimated to be held for one day.

"That...... I think so," Shang Haozhi took the lead in speaking, ""DN" is currently gaining momentum, and it is difficult for any work in China to catch up with "DN" in a short period of time, but I am only targeting Feng Shuo, not "DN...... If we work with Fulllight, what will the industry think of us? ”

Companies also need reputation.

"Yes. Although the benefits of cooperation are the greatest, will it make others think that "Comic Future" is soft ......," Zeng Yue said seriously.

"But if we put too much emphasis on that, we're going to lose it. Indeed, we have competition with Duoman.com, but fighting without fighting is a virtuous circle in the industry. We don't have that much energy, and we make enemies everywhere. Moreover, Feng Shuo bought the film and television rights of "DN", and the broadcast rights of the animation are in the hands of popot, so even if you want to talk about it, popot has a higher priority. We also have cooperation with POPOT, and there is nothing wrong with talking to them in detail and promoting each other at that time. ”

Yu Chen, as the editor-in-chief of "Comic Future", of course, must put the performance of the magazine in the first place, at present, "DN" is hot, and the animation will be released in June and July next year, which can drive a wave of single book sales.

"Comic Future" did not participate in the animation production of "DN", so if you want to form a mutual benefit with the animation, it is best to promote each other, not to mention that orochi is involved in the production, and the quality should be guaranteed.

Bao Jiyi rubbed his eyelids and picked up his glasses again, "Let me tell you what I think." Some things are better separated. One yard to one yard. When Duoman.com first entered the circle, he dug up Mr. Wang, and even wanted to dig up Mr. Shen and Mr. Ye, and everyone did have a reason to hate them. But this is a business circle after all. If Feng Shuo plans to buy other copyrights of Yishu Culture in the future, whether it is comics or light, we choose to give up because we can't get used to them, at that time, who will suffer? ”

The three remained silent.

Yu Chen is slightly better, after all, when Duoman.com poached people, he was not in "Comic Future", and Shang Haozhi and Zeng Yue were worried about this matter.

After a long silence, Shang Haozhi said, "I understand. However, I can't negotiate with Tong Yu. ”

"Why?" Bao Jiyi asked.

"I beat him."

“……”

"Old Yu, I'll leave this matter to you." Bao Jiyi was helpless and could only look at Yu Chen.

"I ......"

Yu Chen's scalp was numb, but "DN" was a comic serialized on "Comic Future", so it was normal for this matter to fall on him.

It's just that the two sides have been facing each other for so long, and I took the initiative to contact them, and I don't know what the result will be.

"Didn't Wang Wenhong follow Shen Xin? You can find him, and he will be the bridge, maybe it won't be too difficult. ”

After two people quarrel, both sides will not be able to wipe off face, let alone the two companies have an awkward quarrel. Therefore, Bao Jiyi suggested that Yu Chen go to Wang Wenhong and let him be the intermediary, whether it is to communicate with Tong Yu or contact Feng Shuo, it will not be too embarrassing.

Yu Chen raised his eyebrows and nodded again and again.

Shang Haozhi saw that this matter was over, so he sighed, although he was a little depressed in his heart, he also knew that Bao Jiyi's words were right.

Two relatively large companies, moreover, are headquartered in Hongchuan, it is basically impossible not to contact, it is better to use "DN" to re-communicate, and the magazine will not be too ugly.

"This matter will be determined first......" Bao Jiyi crossed his fingers and put them in front of him, "Next, there is one more thing...... After watching the 'Golden Brush Award', I also felt that "Comic Future" needs some new faces, and at any time, fresh blood represents the future of a company. What do you guys think about this? ”

Shang Haozhi rubbed his forehead and said, "Dong Bao, to tell you the truth, there are not many ways. Don't stare, I'll tell you why. The prize money of the Golden Brush Award is a total of 6 million, can this money be released by the magazine? After two sessions of operation, the 'Golden Brush' Award has been accepted by readers and authors, and we are only going to go down the road of multi-man's network if we hold similar awards again.

Of course, none of this is critical, because although 6 million is a lot, it is still no problem for the magazine to take this money. However, Duoman.com can allow more comics to be serialized on the website, and the comics that do not win awards also have a certain income after two years of serialization. Not to mention that the works are selling well, at least there is no big problem in supporting yourself.

"But "Comic Future" can't, because due to the limited space, some works will face halving, and the number of comics serialized in the magazine at the same time is also limited, and our app relies more on the previously accumulated comic resources, plus some carefully selected comics, in terms of the number of new comics, it is not as good as the number of comics. Therefore, it is difficult for us to follow the model of multi-man. ”

Bao Jiyi took a deep breath and rubbed his forehead.

"Comic Future" is the fist product of Yishu Culture, and it is also the foundation of Yishu Culture's survival, but now, due to the existence of "Comic Future", the development of Yishu Culture in the webtoon has been restricted.

"Since there are not many ways, it means that there are other ways...... You should have discussed it, right? Bao Jiyi asked rhetorically.

"Bao Dong, compared with Duoman.com, our app has a feature, and some of it is light. What's more, we have also opened a light update background, anyone can create light by updating the background after registering as an author. Due to the light update frequency, it is faster than manga, so it is easier for readers to give feedback. ”

"If there are a few light comics that are accepted by readers, and then driven by the popularity of light, maybe our app will have its own characteristics."

Bao Jiyi rubbed his chin.

In the final analysis, Duoman.com has always been a pure animation website, and compared with it, Yishu Culture has its own characteristics, such as a light magazine under it.

"But there is still a problem, if we increase the development of light, it will also affect the magazine, right?"

"Don't hinder ......" Shang Haozhi shook his fingers, "First of all, although "Qichuang Library" is also a first-line magazine in China, there is still a gap compared with the top first-line magazines. If it is not broken, it may not stand, perhaps with the help of light, our light may complete the 'corner overtaking', and occupy a certain advantage in the light part of the network.

"Moreover, light creation is fundamentally different from comics. It is very difficult for an amateur cartoonist to draw a certain quality of comics, and the main creator must have certain basic skills, and if there is no assistant, it will take a long time to create, as short as a month, or as long as two or three months. But for the average person, it's always okay to write two or three thousand words a week, right? If all goes well, we don't even need a manuscript from a magazine.

"For popular authors, we can reward them with virtual coins, so that they can use these virtual coins to read comics and find some illustrators to illustrate their designs. Light with good grades can also publish a single book, and even, we can find a cartoonist to change these light into comics.

"In this way, Comic Future is differentiated from the characteristics of the app, and the app can make money without even relying on Comic Future comics, and we may also be able to harvest some cartoonists and original works."

Bao Jiyi pushed the frame of the glasses, a little worried: "I'm afraid, it won't go well at the beginning, right?" ”

"Of course not, it takes money. It shouldn't take much money to let readers update lightly freely, but if a cartoonist doesn't have a stable income, I'm afraid few people will draw light comics. Duoman has painted more than 10 million for the Golden Brush Award, can our magazine come up with millions and smash the app? ”

"App?"

Bao Jiyi crossed his arms around his chest, thinking about the pros and cons.
