Hong Kong Comic Master
Chapter 463: The Figure Maniac
Chen Weixian's study room can be called a child's paradise.
The rather small room is filled with various figures, toys, posters and comics.
"Oh my god! This is exactly what my dream home should look like!"
Looking at these treasures, Karl was so excited that he started calling God.
Carl will stay on Hong Kong Island for four or five days this time, so he has relatively plenty of time.
So, after he reported his work to the general manager in the morning, he visited Chen Weixian's house in the afternoon!
"First come first, those near the water. There are quite a few here, all from our company. It's naturally easier for me to collect them than for ordinary people!"
Although Chen Weixian's tone was very humble when he said this, the smile on his face could not be hidden at all.
Just looking at the dazzling array of toys in this room is enough to tell how much thought Chen Weixian put into it.
In fact, Chen Weixian rarely had several quarrels with Li Wanyue over this study room.
In Li Wanyue's view, Chen Weixian is like a child who has not grown up, and the study room is a place that reflects the maturity of a man. It is inappropriate for Chen Weixian to be confused with it now.
But Chen Weixian insists on dressing up his study room like this. The key is that his reason is very reasonable: I am in the toy business, so I should maintain a childlike innocence. If I lose this childlike innocence, what else can I do? Understand the psychology of children, how to buy toys?
Although Li Wanyue knew that this was Chen Weixian's quibble, she had no good reason to refute it, so she had to agree in the end.
Of course, the price is that Chen Weixian slept on the sofa for a week!
But... Chen Weixian thought it was worth it, especially when he saw Karl's envious eyes at this time, it made Chen Weixian feel like he drank a glass of ice in the dog days of summer. How could he be so happy?
Sure enough, this is the romance of men!
Creatures like women don’t understand!
"Hey, what kind of toy is this?"
Suddenly, Carl saw a group of robots he had never seen before in a display cabinet, and he suddenly became interested.
Carl took out a red horned robot.
"Oh, this, this is called Kabuda!"
"Kabda? What do you mean?"
"That's a good question. I don't know either. I asked Wannian specifically before and he said it means the one-horned fairy in neon language."
"Long live? Long live? This is his work? Why didn't I know?"
Hearing Chen Weixian talk about Li Wannian, Carlton suddenly became interested.
"This is indeed a work of ten thousand years, but it is not a comic or animation, but a tokusatsu drama!"
"Special... special photography drama?"
Carl, who is from the United States, is very unfamiliar with tokusatsu dramas. After all, this word is specifically used to describe Neon’s specially shot film and television dramas.
"Uh... It's a bit similar to "Star Trek" and "Star Wars" for young children!"
For a moment, Chen Weixian didn't know how to describe it, so he could only choose an inappropriate metaphor.
Whether it is "Star Trek" or "Star Wars", they are both long-lasting classic IPs in the United States. Therefore, when Chen Weixian said this, Carl immediately understood.
"Hey, does Mr. Banzai still have such strength? Yes, he can create works like "Gundam" and "Transformers", and "Star Trek" is not impossible!"
Karl, who had reacted, was talking to himself, and Chen Weixian who was standing by was stunned.
Did this guy do something wrong? He seemed to be expecting in the wrong direction!
Speaking of which, "The Iron Man" has immediately become the most popular tokusatsu drama in Hong Kong since its release. Not only children and students love to watch it, but even some adults also like to watch it.
Not only did several of the children become famous child stars in Hong Kong, but one of them, Zhou Huimin, who played the role of a beautiful traffic policeman, also became an instant hit.
Before that, she was just a little singer in Qilin Entertainment.
In addition to the actors in it being popular, the robots in it are even more popular.
Chen Weixian also asked Xingrong Toy Company to immediately launch models and figures of these B-type robots, and the sales volume was even higher than that of Gundam and Transformers!
After all, the story of "Iron Armor" takes place among Hong Kong Islanders, making them seem very friendly, and the sense of science fiction is not so strong, making Hong Kong Islanders like it even more!
"Um, why don't you look at something else?"
"Do you have a videotape of the show?"
"Uh...no!"
Chen Weixian lied here. In fact, he had some at home, but he really couldn't do anything about it for fear of ruining Karl's good impression.
"What, it turns out you don't have everything here?"
Karl did not doubt that he was there, but sighed repeatedly, and Chen Weixian who was listening had veins popping out on his forehead.
Are you saying that I don’t have everything here? If I weren't afraid that your dream would be shattered, I would definitely let you see what it means to be complete!
Putting down the Kabuda in his hand, Karl began to appreciate other works.
"Wow, forward to the Merry, do you have this thing here too?"
Then, Carl saw a sailing ship with a skeleton structure imitating the "Caravel" (a 15th-century sailing ship). It had a triangular stern and a central helm. The bow was a sheep's head, which was placed on an exquisite Inside the glass cover.
"Of course, this toy was released in limited edition on Hong Kong Island just last month!"
Chen Weixian said proudly.
With the joint efforts of DreamWorks and 2D Magazine, they spent ten years to initially build a global figurine market.
Of course, it is not perfect yet, and it is difficult for regions to communicate, but as the Internet age comes, this market will surely become popular, just like in the past.
At present, in order to control the price of goods and ensure the scarcity of figurines in the market, Xingrong Company has also begun to limit the production of some figurines with collection value in the early stage.
And when it is put on the market, the Hong Kong market will be given priority. In this way, many suppliers or figurine enthusiasts will come to Hong Kong from afar and line up to buy!
That scene was really red flags flying and crowded with people!
"So cool!"
At this time, Carl's eyes were already shining, and he wanted to smash the glass cover immediately and take it away!
"That's right, this is the collector's edition of the One Piece comics, which was published one year ago. There are only 10,000 of them, and the original price was 1,999 yuan. Now it is said that it has been sold for 20,000 yuan!"
"20,000? That's really not cheap!"
You have to know that it was less than 1990 years ago. For ordinary people, spending 20,000 yuan on a toy is no different from being crazy.
But in Carl's eyes, it was just a little expensive!
It can be seen that these two friends really have similar tastes!
