170. Be careful with the eggs
In the afternoon, the details of the copyright contract around the cat and mouse, as well as the specific process of signing the contract with Lin Gaoyuan, were negotiated one by one in the communication between the two.
I have to say that the café is indeed a good place, not to mention the quiet environment, just a latte, you can rub the air conditioning for free in the afternoon.
"Aunt Li, it is estimated that my father-in-law will contact you tonight, although our intention is to sell half and give away, but the play that should be acted still has to be acted." Jiang Xia said.
"I know that, and I promise he won't see the problem." Li Weiya smiled and nodded: "Then that's the end of today?" ”
She stretched her arms lazily, and her graceful curves appeared, and she did it all afternoon, making her neck sore.
"If Aunt Li wants to invite me to dinner again, it's not impossible." Jiang Xia said with a grin.
"Coffee isn't enough for you?"
She glanced at her: "Forget about dinner, I still have to go back to cook for Amin, his mind is almost all on cats and mice now, staying up late every day, and when this time is over, you have to give him a vacation to rest." ”
Li Weiya couldn't help but show a somewhat complaining tone, she felt sorry for her son every day, she was dumped some time ago, and now she is busier than her day by day.
Jiang Xia was inexplicably embarrassed, he was a little ruthless in squeezing Wang Mingming, mainly because he was short of manpower and tight in time, resulting in either working overtime or on the way to overtime every day, and even his boss had to break his time in half.
"Aunt Li, although I am a little tired now, these grinds are essential for Ah Ming, and I plan to hand over the cat and mouse project to him in the future, so he must grow up in a short time." He said very seriously.
For Lao Wang, he is a lifelong friendship, and he really regards him as a good brother in life and a right hand in business.
Li Weiya was stunned, cat and mouse have the potential to be a cash cow, and they are also the foundation of Qitian Animation Company, will it be too child's play to hand over to a newcomer in the industry?
"Axia, although I know that your brothers have a good relationship, but ...... Not really. ”
Li Weiya shook her head and said: "I have been in the industry for so many years, and I have seen many garbage directors ruin a good work, and Amin's current ability is not enough to do it, don't let him ruin the cat and mouse." ”
Jiang Xia smiled, he knew Wang Ming's talent very well, this is a cow who independently created excellent short animation in college and won the best animation award, give him some time, he will definitely be able to stand alone.
After all, the essence of Cat and Mouse, as a unit drama, is not complicated, and the core is still interesting skirmishes.
"That's why I want him to study hard, cats and mice are the cornerstone of my accumulation of primitive wealth, and I don't have extra time and energy to spend on a children's work in the future, but I don't feel at ease when it is handed over to others, so I have to let him take it, not to mention, isn't there you to assist him?"
Hearing this, Li Weiya's heart was slightly complicated, she knew Jiang Xia's character very well, this was not painting cakes, but really giving her a thorough understanding, even if it was the closest person, it was difficult to pay so hard.
For a while, she suddenly decided to leave her job.
"I'll teach him well, don't worry." Li Weiya said.
Jiang Xia smiled, he saw the affirmation in Li Weiya's gaze, and the resignation should be a few days in advance.
The two of them left the café, and by this time the sun had gradually set, and the occasional breeze carried a hint of coolness.
The car started slowly, Jiang Xia rolled down the window, rested his elbows on the edge of the window, closed his eyes and felt the softness of the wind.
The things around her were solved one by one, and now that Li Weiya has joined in, she is like a needle that fixes the sea, giving Jiang Xia an infinite sense of security.
After all, he has been in the industry for more than ten years, not to mention rich work experience, and he needs resources and connections, so he can be said to be an indispensable leader in the team.
"Axia, I want to hear your development plan for the entire company, is it inconvenient for Fang to say?" Li Weiya drove the car and turned her head to look at him.
He nodded, Li Weiya was not an outsider, and the general plan was not a trade secret.
"At present, we must still focus on stability, focusing on the sales of TV, Internet and peripheral toys around cats and mice, striving to create the most popular children's animation IP, and then consider making new projects after the studio grows."
"For example?"
Li Weiya suddenly became interested, the production cycle of a new project is not short, sometimes it is just a project that has to be discussed over and over again for a month or two, but he can say this lightly, it is obvious that he already has a new idea.
"It may be hot-blooded, or it may be sports, but I can't say for sure." Jiang Xia thought for a while and said.
"Not a child?"
Li Weiya was a little surprised, in her opinion, since Monkey Sky Animation started with children's animation, on the premise of accumulating a part of the audience, the new project should also continue to go deeper, at this time, wouldn't changing the track waste the popularity of cat and mouse?
"Not yet."
He shook his head lightly and said: "The theme of cat and mouse can be done for a long, long time, and even forever, if my second animation continues to be children's oriented, it will label Qitian Animation Company as an inherent label that can only do children's animation, which is very detrimental to the company's future development." ”
In fact, he does have a lot of classics in his head, such as SpongeBob SquarePants, such as Crayon Shin-chan, or Woody the Woodpecker and Bugs Bunny, any of which can earn him a lot of money, but his ambitions are huge.
"If someone told me that, I would definitely think that he was a master of the eye, and he would only talk big."
Li Weiya's tone was quite helpless, maybe it was because Jiang Xia was only eighteen years old and made a cat and mouse, she had a kind of blind trust.
"Aunt Li, you should know very well that the audience for children's works is only a small part of the audience, and my dream is that people of any age can find the animation they like to watch in my company." Jiang Xia said with a smile.
Li Weiya was shocked, this tone is really not ordinary, can someone really complete it?
She took a few deep breaths, completely ignoring the fresh pie, the kid almost fooled her.
"Those things are too far for you and me, today your Aunt Li will teach you another truth, be pragmatic, take one step at a time, focus on the present, do you know? Take too big a step and be careful to pull the eggs. ”
After speaking, her face turned slightly red, and her analogy seemed a little inappropriate.
