"Ah~ I owe it!"

Xiangjiang, Jiang Tianshi suddenly sneezes.

"What’s wrong with you?"

The young man walked into the office asked, the young man looked handsome and had an 80% similar face to Jiang Tianshi. In fact, they were brothers. The young man was Jiang Tianen, the eldest son of the Jiang family, and the heir to the family. Although he was the heir, he had a good relationship with his younger brother Jiang Tianshi. Now he could make some jokes:

"Does this comic have a sneezing function?"

"Don't joke, brother..." Jiang Tianshi touched his nose, then put the comic on the table, and said, "I guess some beauty is missing me, by the way, if you come to me, you will say that the investigation has been found, right..."

"Yeah." Jiang Tianen reached out and threw a report over, then sat on the sofa, lit a cigar and said, "I'll check it for you. He Xi does have plans to launch an animated movie."

He took a sip of the cigar and shook his head.

"Seldom people know about this, but they can't hide it from me... You are happy this time, so he is so happy."

Jiang Tianshi looked through the report in his hand and smiled: "He even made an animation, so I knew that the animation will be released sooner or later. I have been waiting for this day for a long time... I can't write stories, and comics and animations can't beat him, but I'm better than him in the movie. Do you know what his movie is?"

"I don't know." Jiang Tianen spitted out smoke rings and said, "He Xi only told others that he wanted to make an animated movie, and he did not reveal anything, but the informant said that the biggest possibility was his previous works."

"Previous works... "Five Centimeters in Seconds"?" Jiang Tianshi narrowed his eyes slightly: "That's a strong enemy."

"Come on, with me supporting you behind your back, how could you have a strong rival?" Jiang Tianen said disapprovingly: "But speaking of this, He Xi is in the midst of his life. He even dared to fight against Zhongxia at the beginning. He seemed to be a man who was not afraid of difficulties. This time he would not miss the opportunity to compete with you."

"Of course!" Jiang Tianshi smiled slightly: "He Xi has a strong desire to attack. I have studied his experience. He usually looks low-key, but like other geniuses, he is eager for competitors in his heart. As long as someone he thinks is an opponent appears, he will launch a fierce attack. In the past, Mach, Qin Ya and Li Xin were like this..."

"I made a fuss this time, even the Spring Festival Gala is on. He will definitely be interested in me." A light flashed in Jiang Tianshi's eyes, and he said confidently: "I want to be the first to defeat him, and let him know that the crown of Chinese animation movies will always be my treasure!"

Jiang Tianshi was full of fighting spirit, and Jiang Tianen felt relieved when he saw such a younger brother. This younger brother was a very proud person. He had been determined to become a leader in the Chinese comics industry many years ago, but he discovered He Xi's existence before he graduated. Jiang Tianshi was stunned at the time and suffered a great blow.

But finally, he found his own way again. In animated movies, Jiang Tianshi should be invincible in this industry.

"He Xi should be able to make movies..."

The only thing Jiang Tianen was worried about was that He Xi would retreat halfway. If He Xi gave up making a movie, Jiang Tianshi might not think that it was him retreating. He would only think that He Xi looked down on him and disdain to challenge him.

"My brother just value He Xi too much."

Jiang Tianen sighed in his heart, he hoped that He Xi could compete with his younger brother with animated movies. If this was not the case, if He Xi had left him aside as if he had not seen Jiang Tianshi and had not made a movie for a long time, Jiang Tianshi might be angry and go to He Xi's territory to challenge - the long animation and comics industry.

To be honest, Jiang Tianen didn't want to see that result at all, because his chances of winning were very low. He was an entrepreneur and didn't like actions with low chances of winning.

At this time, on the high-speed rail direct to Suhua from Ninghai, the topic of animation movies continued.

"When it comes to different positioning, Teacher He Xi's animation movie positioning should be the plot flow, right?"

Ye Xiong thought about it and then said, "This is indeed your advantage, but Teacher He Xi, the most important thing in a movie is not the story, but the skills. Popular movies rarely have good stories, and they pay more attention to the effect of expressing skills. "Crown of the Sky" has an average story, but its screenwriter, special effects, and guidance in all aspects are top-notch people. Although Jiang Tianshi has the name of a director, his talents are only reflected in the picture."

"Jiang Tianshi is not a real director, but he is an excellent commander. He found the top film and animation team in China, used other people's experience and skills, integrated his own painting skills, and brought the movie effect of "Crown of the Sky" to the extreme... Teacher He Xi, I don't recommend you to make animated movies, because you will definitely not win Jiang Tianshi."

Ye Xiong said, and at this time, Alice on the side also started talking.

"Actually, I also investigated this matter. Jiang Tianshi is very ambitious." She said: "He was originally the most popular cartoonist, but because of Meng Huo you, Jiang Tianshi did not become a cartoonist after graduation - he voluntarily gave up this path. According to my investigation, Jiang Tianshi is a very proud person and he is not willing to be inferior to others."

"He is not confident that he is better than you in comics, so he chooses animated movies." Alice sighed and continued: "The family behind him is unfathomable and can provide the best financial resources and team to support his career. He is far better than you in animated movies, funds, financial resources, connections, etc. This time, the production fund for "Crown of the Sky" is said to have 200 million Chinese coins. Like Editor-in-Chief Ye, I don't recommend you to make animated movies... because you will definitely lose."

Both of them concluded that Meng Huo would lose, but the reason was that they did not believe Meng Huo.

But animation movies are also movies, and the story of the movie is short, so relatively speaking, the importance of the story is not as good as the shocking feeling brought to the audience by the picture and music. If it were Meng Huo, if it were the production funds of 200 million Huaxia coins, Meng Huo would definitely not be willing to spend so much on the effect of the movie... Now, "Gundam Seed", which is known as the highest cost in the animation industry, only has 100 million Huaxia coins for the entire dozens of episodes, while "Pokemon" is even lower.

Jiang Tianshi's movie consumes more money than all Meng Huo's animations. At this stage, Phoenix Company cannot provide so much money. And even if there is one, Meng Huo cannot use it for animation. If he has 200 million Chinese coins in his hand that can be used at one time, he can do more things - it is not cost-effective to put it in the movie.

"I don't compare with him, it doesn't matter?"

Meng Huo said that Jiang Tianshi is obviously a super rich man. Although he has excellent painting skills, he doesn't take the animation movies he made with money even if they make money. He likes animated movies that combine stories and comics: "And why do you think you will meet him when you make animated movies? How come it is such a coincidence?"

"You will also encounter it if you don't want to."

Ye Xiong shook his head and said, "Teacher He Xi, it seems that you don't pay much attention to Jiang Tianshi."

Meng Huo nodded. He knew about Jiang Tianshi, but he was not interested in the "Hollywood blockbusters". Of course, he would not pay special attention to a man.

"Teacher He Xi, although you don't care, others can rank you and him." Ye Xiong said: "You two are very skilled in painting. There is a saying in the anime circle that Jiang Tianshi is in charge of the movies, and you are in charge of the comics... Many people want to watch the two of you compete. If you launch an animated movie, then the media and reporters will put you and him together to evaluate you."

Animation and comics have the same roots. So far, China has regarded these two things as the same industry. Meng Huo and Jiang Tianshi's works are different. Now they happen to be in the category of non-interference. However, Jiang Tianshi became popular through the Spring Festival Gala, and now the media industry divides him and Meng Huo together. If Meng Huo launches animated movies, it will be a real battle of geniuses in the eyes of others.

The winning or losing of animated movies determines the other people's evaluation of the painting skills of both. If Meng Huo loses, the name of the number one cartoonist who has always been on his head may be transferred to Jiang Tianshi.

"You can't win him, and losing will have an impact on your current momentum. Why do you still need to make an animated movie?" Ye Xiong said: "It's thankless. If you focus on serial animation and comics, which pay more attention to plot and storylines, you can be invincible. Jiang Tianshi dare not challenge you in these two works."

"I agree."

Alice nodded and said, "Meng Huo, now is a critical period for the transformation of Phoenix Company. Maintaining your status will be of great benefit to the company's development... Let's do animated movies later. Now the company is divided into three places, and there are three animation departments. If you really want to launch an animation, then you can just launch a serial animation, right?"

"One Piece, Detective Conan, Inuyasha, Dream Eater, Sakura College Male Public Relations Department... You still have a bunch of comics that are not animated, readers are waiting for the stars and the moon to wait for you..."

"I agree." Zhou Qian also raised her hand and said, "I also want to watch the animation versions of these comics. Teacher He Xi, you should just make animations!"

"Agree!", "I agree, I have been looking forward to the animation of "Detective Conan" after listening to "time, after, time"!", "Inuyasha" is also very good!", "Idiot, obviously "One Piece" is more popular!", "From the point of interest, "Dream Eater" should be animated earlier, so that it can bring more comic newcomers to our company."

As soon as I heard the animation news, the entire high-speed rail carriage became excited. The employees expressed their opinions and wanted to adapt their favorite comics into animation.

Meng Huo was shocked. When his employees mentioned this, he suddenly realized that he seemed...it seemed...it might be a bit fickle? The current company situation is really suitable for starting a new animation work? Or should he digest the previous comics first?

"..." He thought: "But if you want to serialize animations now, there is not enough manpower?"

Although the animation department of Phoenix Company is divided into three regions, Su Hua and Ninghai's animation department members are only enough to continue serializing "Pokemon", and no one has ever opened a long serialized animation.

"It's okay, I expected such a thing to happen. I'm discussing the acquisition with an animation company recently." Alice saw that Meng Huo was a little moved, and a smile appeared on her face, saying, "That animation company is in Su Hua. If we can acquire them, our animation number will be enough."

Meng Huo was surprised: "When did you do it?"

"I had this idea during the Chinese New Year." Alice replied: "The company's restructuring lacks people, and it's too difficult to recruit. I just thought, if it's okay to merge and absorb some small companies, I really found a suitable company. Although it has not been successful yet, I guess they will agree."

Meng Huo looked surprised. This was really a great idea. Alice was indeed very useful. When others were worried about recruitment, she actually thought of acquisition.

If the acquisition is successful, Phoenix can indeed launch another new animation. Several of the "Detective Conan" are popular comics, which have cultivated loyal readers for several years. If the adaptation of animations is successful, they will undoubtedly bring Phoenix more benefits than other animations. The direct influence of animation is greater than that of comics, and animation will make comics more popular.

Take "Detective Conan" as an example. After animation, its popularity will further increase, which will not only drive the sales of magazines, but also make breakthrough progress in the surrounding industries that were originally stalemate. The surrounding dolls, clothing, and theme stores may appear, which is also of great benefit to Phoenix's idea of ​​promoting the establishment of a comic street in Suhua City.

"Maybe it can do it..."

Meng Huo began to be moved. Although he was reluctant to give up the idea of ​​animated movies, to be honest, Phoenix Company's main job is to develop the comic street in Suhua area. As long as this area develops, Phoenix Company can gradually integrate comic culture into social life and seize the commanding heights of future development of comic companies.

If we use the terms of the previous life, we can think that whoever creates the Akihabara of this world can become the dominant player of the AcG culture. So at this moment, on Meng Huo's path, it is better to deepen the charm of existing resources than to blossom everywhere with ambitiousness. If the charm of comics is not deepened, no more works will be of no use.

"Do you want to make your previous works popular again?" Meng Huo thought about it. This idea seemed to be possible, and it was supported by the original work, so it was easy to adapt animations.

"I can consider... In this way, Alice, you go and acquire first." After thinking a few times, Meng Huo made a decision: "If the acquisition is successful, I will give priority to adapting animations. If it is not successful, then we can only draw out someone to make an animated movie first."
