Big Manga

At this time, Ninghai City

Some cars were parked on the square of Nuoda, and the reporters came out one after another, and then walked into the Zhongxia Building. Dong Ding and Yang Liang stood on the tall building overlooking the scene, both of them looked relieved.

"The invitation was sent out this morning, and so many reporters have come now, it seems that they are very interested in Angel's new animation!" Holding a cup of tea in his hand, Dong Ding said, "If they know that the new animation is "Sherlock" , I don’t know what kind of expression I will show.”

"It must be very shocking..."

Yang Liang replied with a smile.

Looking at the reporters below, he admired Dong Ding more and more in his heart. The news of "Detective Sherlock" was well hidden. When everyone was attracted by the new animation of Phoenix Company, who would have thought that Zhongxia Company secretly planned such an important event?

Until today, after the animation has been completed to a certain extent and the selection of voice actors has begun, Zhongxia Company decided to hold a press conference to release the news. The time is just right, the next few weeks will be the promotion time for "Sherlock", and when the popularity is almost there, this animation will be broadcast.

Phoenix Company has nothing to do, even if it is too late to modify the new animation now-Yang Liang feels that this is an unprecedented victory for Zhongxia Company.

"Mr. Dong's move is brilliant! I think Teacher He Xi must be having a headache too..." Yang Liang laughed.

Dong Ding took a sip of tea, then turned around and put down the teacup: "Zhongxia confronts Phoenix, and works are weapons, but weapons don't distinguish between friend and foe... Sometimes the opponent's weapon can also become your own."

He shook his head slightly: "What a pity, what a pity... He never dreamed, right? One day he created the animation myth with his own hands. The huge influence of "Detective Conan" will even be used as a dowry for us." He Sitting on the sofa. He laughed and said, "Maybe no one can defeat He Xi now, but can he defeat himself?"

Yang Liang thought for a while and replied with a smile.

"With Gundam and Qingyin Maiden, I don't think he has this possibility."

Maybe He Xi is great, but no matter how wonderful the stories of these two animations are, they are far behind the huge popularity of "Detective Conan". From manga to animation, several years of cultivation. The audience of "Detective Conan" is so large. Looking at China, only "Pokemon" can fight against it, and "Boy Boy" is much inferior.

Readers have inertia. Take novels as an example. If a novel is popular and arouses readers' interest, it will drive many works of the same type to become popular. Fans of "Detective Conan" after the animation ended,

I will look for alternative detective animations to meet my psychological needs, and "Detective Sherlock" happens to be the best successor.

Phoenix Company used to monopolize two of the three most popular animations, but this time, Zhongxia Company will do its best to produce "Detective Sherlock". Shape it into a new popular animation. The new "Detective Conan" will be released in half a year, which means that Zhong Xia has half a year to stabilize "Detective Sherlock". prop it up.

The best result is that "Detective Sherlock" will surpass "Detective Conan" in one fell swoop and become one of the three most popular animations. The situation of Zhongxia Company and Phoenix Company will be completely overturned, and they will take the initiative in the animation market. The worst result is that "Detective Sherlock" failed to surpass "Detective Conan", but even so, it is inevitable to distract the audience of the latter.

And no matter which result, Zhongxia Company is the winner. Their "Detective Sherlock" can leave a large number of animation viewers for Ninghai TV Station, and directly rescue Ninghai TV Station from the edge of the cliff. This TV station was originally the TV station with the highest animation ratings, and after this battle, its status will not be affected.

If Ninghai is kept, it also keeps its dominant position on TV. It becomes more difficult for Phoenix Company to rely on Suhua and TV Tokyo to overtake Zhongxia Company.

"It's perfect, killing three birds with one stone!" Yang Liang was moved. Dong Ding had been in office for a few months, and he had been carrying out reforms in a low-key manner. Now he finally took the first obvious action against Phoenix Company! And this action is more reliable than all the actions of Zhongxia Company in the past few years.

Now Yangliang can't imagine how Phoenix Company will deal with this matter, it's simply unsolvable! They could only grit their teeth and swallow it.

"Then President Dong, I'll go to the press conference first."

Looking at the time, Yang Liang bid farewell to Dong Ding - he is the host of this press conference, and he and the angel will jointly announce the animation of "Sherlock".

"En, good." Dong Ding nodded, but before Yang Liang went out, he suddenly stopped him: "Wait... I forgot to remind you, after this news is announced, there will definitely be reporters asking whether it is targeting Phoenix Company, Or to steal the popularity of "Detective Conan" after the end... Do you know how to answer?"

"Of course." Yang Liang smiled, he is not stupid, of course he will not be caught by others: "I will handle it properly, and I will not offend the audience!"

At this time, the purpose of "Detective Sherlock" is obvious, and the media will definitely make a big fuss, and the actions of Zhongxia Company may also arouse the anger of some loyal fans of "Detective Conan". If the answer is wrong, it is not surprising that there are voices of resistance... That's why Yang Liang came forward at the press conference. He knows what to say and what not to say.

"En." Dong Ding was relieved: "Then you can go... If necessary, you can show your respect for "Detective Conan" and thank He Xi for your contribution."

The corner of Yangliang's mouth smiled, it really means that there is no chance of saving others. Zhongxia Company will praise "Detective Conan" at the "Detective Sherlock" press conference and thank He Xi for his contribution, then it will naturally please the audience of "Detective Conan" and suppress doubts.

And what about Phoenix? Now that Zhong Xia has praised you, if you stand up and complain about dissatisfaction, it will appear too petty-it will cause dissatisfaction among the audience. There are only a few people in this world who can see the essence of things clearly. As long as Zhongxia Company does not make mistakes, most of the audience's thoughts can be easily manipulated.

"I know what to do." Yang Liang nodded, then bent down and left the office.

Dong Ding sat in the office and answered several calls. These calls came from different shareholders and capitalists, without exception of course-all of them were very satisfied with his decision.

Shareholders are of course satisfied with Dong Ding's achievements. After he took office, he reduced huge advertising and publicity activities, and cooperated with various companies to reduce costs. The money spent is quite small, much less than that of Ding Yanghua's time. But the effect is great. The company's reform has brought about an increase in profits and popularity, and the voice actor model has also undergone a complete change. The low-cost all-star lineup can be described as happy for everyone.

Now this new animation is even more wonderful, and there will be no loss in any case-if this continues, the day when Zhongxia Company defeats Phoenix Company is just around the corner. The shareholders were happy, and Dong Ding secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but after putting down the phone, in the empty office, a gloomy look suddenly flashed across his eyes: This is not the action he wanted, but he had to do it.

How will Phoenix respond to this matter? How will He Xi respond?

"He doesn't seem like the kind of person who will jump over the wall in a hurry... But, this incident will hit him quite hard!" Dong Ding thought in his heart. He actually didn't want to push Phoenix Company at all, because it would be harmful to the two companies. Nothing good happened—and when "Detective Sherlock" was released, what Dong Ding was most worried about was that He Xi would make an aggressive response.

There is no solution to the normal way of coping, but there are several solutions to the extreme ones. Dong Ding believed that He Xi was not someone who would make such an extreme behavior, but he had never talked to that child. He Xi was still a young man anyway, and young people were high-spirited, so it would not be surprising if he made any impulsive decisions. .

"In order to prevent accidents, it seems that we have to find a time to talk to him..." The tea on the table was a little cold, Dong Ding took a sip, thinking about how to get in touch with He Xi.

But just as he was thinking about it, another call came. At first Dong Ding thought it belonged to some shareholder, but after answering the call, it took him a while to realize it after greeting him face-to-face——Duke Anthony, who is far away in England, Dong Ding almost didn't hear it because he had very little contact.

"Do you have any business, Your Excellency the Duke? Thank you for the copyright of the animation... We are just going to announce this today!" Dong Ding said with a smile.

On the other side of the microphone, Anthony shook the red wine in his hand: "I just called you when I received the news. The animation press conference starts today, right? Once the press conference is held, the matter is settled. I told you this before. I will not take any copyright fees for this animation, but I have to confirm again, have you not forgotten our agreement?"

Dong Ding was taken aback, then shook his head: "Of course not. As a reward for the animation of "Detective Sherlock", I promise to open up channels and publicity for you, and introduce your works...whether it is limited to a cartoonist."

"Why, is the cartoonist ready now?"

He asked indifferently, Dong Ding had discussed animation issues with Anthony before, and the condition he got was to help introduce a cartoonist's work and give him promotional care. Dong Ding agreed without hesitation. The animation of "Detective Sherlock" is very important, but the requirement is only a western cartoonist, so what's the big deal!

"No, I just want to make sure." Anthony smiled: "I'm not in a hurry, it may take a year or two...Since you remember it, it's fine!"

He said a few words, then hung up the phone. Dong Ding stared at the microphone blankly, one or two more years? What kind of cartoonist is that? However, western cartoonists don't know anything about Huaxia, so they will definitely not be able to draw any best-selling works.

"Not worth noting..." (to be continued...)
