Chapter 281: He Xi's Return
Ninghai TV Station
After get off work, Guoletong saw the Minister of Information.
"Minister Liu, leave so early today?"
He walked over to say hello, a little confused. The News Department still had programs very late, so they shouldn't get off work so early.
"Yeah? It's Le Tong, no, I'm going to interview!" The Minister of Information pointed to several subordinates who were beside him and smiled: "Phoenix Company is going to hold a press conference. I'll go over and take a look. Maybe He Xi is back."
"Haha, how is that possible? That kid has been away for almost a year..."
Guoletong smiled and waved, "Then I'll go home first. If it's really He Xi's news, you can call me to tell me."
He didn't care too much. He Xi left for too long, and even if he came back, it had nothing to do with him. Guoletong will go to Tianhui Animation Company to buy a new animation from Zhongxia tomorrow. He will study the pricing at home tonight.
However, in the evening, just as Guo Letong was having dinner with his family, he received a call from the Minister of Information.
"Letong, good news! Phoenix Company is going to launch a new animation in June called "Gundam Seed". Who do you think the producer is? The producer is He Xi!"
"puff……"
Guo Letong sprayed out the food in his mouth on the spot and then coughed twice.
"Damn... don't lie to me, He Xi is back?"
After repeated confirmation, Guole Tong was shocked. After a year, He Xi finally came out again, and as soon as he appeared, it was accompanied by a new animation work.
He Xi's new animation work—
"You must not miss it!"
Guoletong was so excited that he didn't sleep all night. The next day he headed straight to Phoenix Company, and it was dawn. The door of Phoenix Company was surrounded by crowded reporters.
"Sir, wait, is the news of Teacher He Xi's return true?"
"Sir, what is the new animation "Gundam seed"?"
These reporters surrounded Guoletong and asked excitedly. Guoletong's eyebrows stood up and she became angry: "Are you reporters more professional? Why are you blocking here? Let me in quickly, I have something urgent to do!"
After a series of questions, the reporters found something was wrong.
"What? It turns out that you are not an employee of Phoenix Company!"
"It's a waste of effort, you can go in."
These reporters turned around and ignored Guoletong, which was so angry that the animation director of Ninghai TV almost broke down.
He walked into Phoenix Company angrily, and then made an appointment to find Li Hua and Zhong Yue, the heads of the animation department who had just finished interviews with several newspapers.
"Teacher He Xi is back?"
As soon as he sat down, the Guolei Tong asked excitedly.
"No, Teacher He Xi is in Jidong. I have already said it at yesterday's press conference. Don't you know?" Zhong Yue looked at Guoletong in surprise, but did not continue to be surprised, but said: "But sorry, Guolei, the sample of "Gundam Seed" has not yet been released, and we can't sell it to you today."
Guoletong was the first person in charge of the TV station department to appear. His purpose was of course to buy the broadcast rights of "Gundam Seed".
"It doesn't matter, Teacher He Xi's works are of good quality, I can trust them." Guole Tong said confidently: "I will buy it for 500,000 yuan per episode, and it's okay not to watch the sample."
He Xi's works have always been classic, so he must win them as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the sample of the trial is released, the heads of other local TV stations will face great competition.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, Tianhui Animation Company, the tea on the table was already cold.
"Young Master!"
The secretary hurried in from outside the door and said to Li Tianhui who was sitting alone: "The Guoletong from the TV station went to Phoenix Company. He stayed in it for more than two hours and had not come out yet. Should we arrange the meeting until the afternoon?"
"Need not."
Li Tianhui took a sip of tea, and the taste was cold and bitter: "Last night, Phoenix announced the launch of a new animation. It is normal for the Chinese Music Children to be late... Let's wait."
"Young Master..." The secretary was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with you?"
If it were normal, Li Tianhui would have angrily dropped the table when someone else set off a pigeon. How could he swallow his anger like today?
"It's nothing, that animation...but He Xi's work." Li Tianhui shook his head and said bitterly: "He Xi can even defeat Zhongxia, how can we compare with him?"
He always saw what happened last year. He Xi defeated Zhongxia and made "Weekly Boy" and "Weekly Girl" appear in Zhongxia's channels. This strength is awesome.
Li Tianhui had no idea of confronting He Xi again. Ninghai TV's animation number has gradually saturated. This time, He Xi's new work is released, and the TV station may choose He Xi and give up the works of Tianhui Animation Company.
So he had to endure it. Even if he waited until noon, Li Tianhui had to show Guolei a good attitude.
He succeeded - at twelve o'clock noon, after Guoletong came, he saw Li Tianhui waiting for a whole morning and simply agreed to buy out the broadcast rights of the new animation for 300,000 yuan per episode.
Li Tianhui breathed a sigh of relief. The price was very good because the cost was only more than 200,000 yuan.
"I heard that Teacher He Xi's new work has been made, how much did they bid?"
When bidding farewell to the Guolei Tong, Li Tianhui couldn't help asking curiously. Perhaps he felt embarrassed because he had to wait for four or five hours, so the Guolei Tong did not hide it.
"They didn't make a bid because the sample didn't come out. I talked with them for a whole morning and finally got a high price of 800,000 per episode... but they still refused."
Guole had a little dissatisfied: "800,000, an animation without samples. Is there anyone in China who bid higher than me? That kid is too greedy. Gundam animation, how popular he thinks he can be?"
800,000 yuan per episode is already a very high unit price for animation in China. Ninghai TV has faced great risks. No matter how powerful He Xi is, it is impossible for everyone to be "Pokemon"?
So they did not reach an agreement, and the sample of Phoenix Company will be released for a week. Guoletong plans to check the price after the sample is released, just like other TV stations.
After hearing his explanation, Li Tianhui was completely speechless.
He sent Guoletong away. Then he returned to the office and wanted to get drunk. His animation was delighted for the broadcast price of 300,000 yuan, but the other party refused to accept it even 800,000 yuan.
People compare themselves - it's so frustrating...
"If I had known that I wouldn't have given up Phoenix's shares!"
Li Tianhui's regret in his heart was so blue.
At this time, at Zhongxia Company, which had moved its headquarters to Ninghai, Ding Yanghua was also sighing at the newspaper in his hand.
"I knew there would be such a day, and that boy He Xi was back."
He was thinking about how to deal with this kind of situation. After all, Chairman Zhongxia has never personally played against He Xi, and his concept of He Xi only exists in reports and information.
On the contrary, another person who had fought against He Xi now shows...
"Why are you shaking? Wipe the sweat on your face quickly... what kind of decent thing!"
Ding Yanghua cursed at Yang Liang, who quickly wiped his sweat with a tissue and said nervously: "Minister, what should we do if He Xi's little fox returns to Ninghai from Jidong?"
"He is so amazing. You see, the sales of "Weekly Boy" now exceeds that of "Midsummer Daily"!"
A year has passed. Yang Liang's fear of He Xi has increased, and the reason is that it comes from the channels provided by Zhongxia.
Zhongxia Company provides channels for two comic magazines of Phoenix Company. In addition to the areas controlled by Huamei, Zhongxia is responsible for the release of "Weekly Boy" and "Weekly Girls".
Yang Liang didn't feel anything at first, but gradually, he found that the sales of "Weekly Boy" are increasing, and there is a tendency to turn the tables.
There are several serials of He Xi in this youth magazine. If it weren't for the unstable period of time, "Weekly Boy" might have surpassed "Weekly Best" even.
Because of this, how could Yang Liang not be nervous? If He Xi comes back, can they still have fun?
"What are you worried about? He has to go to Su Hua when he comes back!"
Ding Yanghua taught a cold lesson: "This is something that has been agreed upon, and He Xi can still regret it? As soon as the boy comes back, we will immediately let him leave Ninghai, otherwise who will provide him with channels?"
As long as He Xi arrives at Su Hua, the friction between the two companies will be reduced. Ding Yanghua believes that He Xi will make a wise choice.
"This...this is also..." Yang Liang breathed a sigh of relief: "That kid is so terrible. He is simply a monster. I hope he won't see him in this life!"
But he thought about it and suddenly laughed again.
"Chairman, I suddenly realized that this is also a good thing... He Xi made Gundam animation in the Far East District, can he help us Zhongxia open up some channels?"
He laughed and said, "A mobile suit just happened to have a mess a while ago in Mantian, and now he is probably stunned..."
Yang Liang guessed it right. In the extreme east area, Mantian was more than just dumbfounded, just like an ant on a hot pan.
"Damn, that legendary comic monster is in our city?"
"Sakura animation was acquired by He Xi? Then what... The animation production of "Gundam Seed" is almost completed? How could this happen? It's so terrible!"
"Come on, the president is vomiting blood!"
Aki Suzuki really vomited blood. He didn't expect that he was negligent and did not find that the most powerful enemy had been lurking by his side for so long.
He Xi acquired Sakura Animation in Tokyo. Now when he thinks about it, he is deliberately targeting Mantiantang. Mantiantang doesn't know yet, so he is foolishly doing the show.
"President, President..."
The secretary nervously helped Akatsu Suzuki dry the blood on his mouth. The president had a congenital heart disease and would never have any major mental blows.
"President, there will be no problem... He Xi is here, the Far East District is our territory." The secretary comforted while feeding the medicine: "Besides, our Mobile Suit is so popular, they cannot surpass us..."
It is impossible to exceed-
"Yes." Aki Suzuki stood up excitedly: "We won't lose. "Gundam seed" cannot surpass our settings. Even if that kid is a one-stop, it will be useless in front of us!"
Since ancient times, strong dragons have not suppressed local snakes, and Aki Suzuki has gained confidence again.
Chapter completed!
