Chapter 109: Egawa Akihabara? (Ask for subscription)
The first "Jiangchuan Animation Carnival" hosted by Wanbao Group came to an end on April 7.
At this exhibition, Wanbao Animation took out "Dragon Fighter", which is still in the mid-production stage, and "Thunder Speed Lightning Rush 2", which is still in the early stage of production.
Flappy Animation exhibited "Kuiba".
In terms of practical results......
"Kuiba" does not seem to have achieved the expected "sensational" effect, and few viewers are interested in the project.
The most popular, and also the "most anticipated animation work" selected by the exhibitors of this year's Animation Carnival, is actually the previously unknown "Lei Suden Lightning Rush 2".
This came as a bit of a surprise to Magui.
"Are there so many Lei Sudeng fans?"
He asked: "I thought that the most anticipated work by the audience would definitely be "Dragon Fighter"! ”
Can that be the same?
Gu Miao rolled her eyes and said, "Are these children looking forward to the animation?" They are obviously looking forward to the new remote control car! ”
Reasonable!
The attractiveness of the new RC car is indeed many times higher than that of the animation.
After all, there are many children who may not have watched the animation at all, but the remote control car must have played with it, or touched it.
Marqui nodded.
After explaining why "Lei Sudeng Lightning Rush 2" became the most popular animation work to be exhibited at this year's Animation Carnival, Gu Miao asked: "How much did you lose money in this exhibition?" ”
"About 150,000 or 60,000."
"That's fine......"
Gu Miao breathed a sigh of relief.
Hundreds of thousands, to tell the truth, is still within the acceptable range. If he loses millions, then he has to think about whether it makes sense to hold such an event.
"The main thing is that I didn't earn a penny from the tickets."
Ma Kui explained: "If there is ticket revenue, plus the sale of derivatives around the venue, not only will it not be a loss, but it will even make a small profit. ”
"Yes."
Gu Miao's index finger curled slightly, knocked on the table and said, "Since the effect is so good, and it doesn't burn much money, let's do it again in the second half of the year!" ”
Will it come in the second half of the year?
Just wanted to talk about this kind of activity, is it too frequent to hold it twice a year, Ma Kui, before he could say anything, he listened to Mr. Gu.
"Then the time will change the word."
"The first half of the year is called the Animation Carnival, and the second half of the year is called the Animation Culture Exhibition! Let's go back to a few more events like Anime Carnival Week, Anime Music Festival, and Anime Expo. ”
Gu Miao said with great interest: "Strive to do it, every quarter, or even every month, there will be an offline comic exhibition to make Jiangchuan an animation mecca!" ”
Holy Land, do you understand?
At that time, around the upcoming "Pleasant Goat Theme Park", a theme block will be built.
The street is full of A-related stores, and there are corresponding offline comic book and game exhibition activities every month or even every week, and the "animation" economy is vigorously developed.
It's okay to say it's Akihabara mode!
However, the difficulty of creating an "ACG Holy Land" in Jiangchuan is not something that Gu Miao can do alone, or Wanbao alone.
There must be peers to "huddle", including Jiangchuan City to support him.
In this regard, Gu Miao also has plans.
As long as he can win the title of "Jiangchuan Large Taxpayer", it is not surprising that the city will definitely consider his proposal and vigorously invest in the development of the "animation" industry.
When the time comes, some more merchants will be wooed.
If we work together, the "Egawa Akihabara" formed around Manpo will begin to take shape.
As long as you have this foundation, with Wanbao continuing to launch excellent animation/comic works, it is definitely a sure thing to become a "two-dimensional holy land".
Of course......
Ideas are ideas.
Gu Miao is neither a big taxpayer in Jiangchuan nor is he treated by his peers, and the so-called "theme park" has not even seen a shadow, it is too early to say this.
"Actually, it's going to be soon."
Ma Kui hesitated: "Don't look at our company was only founded in the second half of last year, but the tax paid in the second half of the year is not a small amount." If you work hard this year, you will definitely be able to become a big taxpayer! ”
"As for the Pleasant Goat Theme Park......"
As long as you have money, isn't it ready to start construction?
"The problem is, we don't have any money!"
Gu Miao said angrily: "If I had money, I would like to start construction now, and I still need you to remind me?" ”
The land purchase price has not been paid off!
Pleasant Goat Theme Park, even if it is divided into several stages, the first phase of the project will start construction, at least one or two billion construction funds must be prepared, right?
Even if this payment is not settled at one time, it can delay the project contractor. But Gu Miao no longer has a conscience, and he will not deliberately default on the wages of migrant workers.
So he had to put development on hold.
"We'll talk about it later."
Gu Miao groaned: "After the animation "Dragon Fighter" is broadcast, the peripheral derivatives will return to the mouth, and it is not too late to consider starting construction. ”
Building a garden must be very expensive.
Before there is sufficient cash flow, Gu Miao will not rush to start construction. Otherwise, if the company suddenly runs out of money, won't it become an unfinished building?
By the way.
When planning the Pleasant Goat Theme Park, Gu Miao also reserved a vacant land on the land in advance.
Used to build the headquarters building of the future!
Fuding Building is still not good, Gu Miao has received a lot of feedback from employees, saying that there is a serious shortage of parking spaces in the underground parking lot, which makes it very inconvenient for them to go to work.
He also went to negotiate this issue.
But the Fuding Building was originally designed in the 90s, when there were not so many private cars and parking spaces were not as tight as they are now.
So it's a design problem, and the property can't solve it.
Housing prices in downtown Gangcheon are too high, and many employees rent in neighborhoods far from the city center, and there are many people who commute to and from work.
Because of the "parking space" problem.
Employees can only park their cars in the public parking lot more than 800 meters away from the Fuding Building, and then walk to work. In terms of commuting efficiency, it is not as good as a colleague who takes the bus to work?
This made everyone complain constantly.
Gu Miao didn't think about moving to another place with plenty of parking spaces to work, but the problem is that there are too few eligible office buildings in Jiangchuan City.
Either the rent is ridiculously expensive!
Either the area is too small to accommodate so many people in Wanbao. If you work separately, the efficiency of communication management becomes a big problem.
So Gu Miao finally appeased everyone.
Bear with it first, when the company has money, it will definitely build a headquarters building. When the parking space is enough, you can park wherever you want, if you are willing......
It's okay to park in Mr. Gu's bedroom!
A real man has to do what he says, and since Gu Miao has made a promise, he will definitely try his best to fulfill it.
In his opinion, the priority of building the headquarters building is even more urgent than the construction of the Pleasant Goat theme park.
After all, commuting is inconvenient, how much does it affect the work status? If the employee is not in good condition, how can he squeeze the surplus value?
