Rebirth in America

Alex created comic characters based on his memories of characters from the Harry Potter movies. As for the style of the comics, it feels more like Japanese comics, but it is more realistic and the pictures are very clean and refreshing.

He has learned to draw, but this is his first time drawing comics.

However, he has read so many comics and drawn scenes from scripts. With a master like Stan Lee demonstrating by his side, he then used the "Spirit Doll" to steal his master's skills, and soon stole Stan Lee's skills.

Alex can draw himself, and there are so many later comics for reference. Coupled with Stan Lee's drawing skills, there is no reason why he can't draw, even with his eyes closed.

As a result, Stan Lee and the others were frightened to death by Alex's performance. No one could remain calm in the face of this monster-level learning ability.

When Alex draws a sketch, he does it very quickly, picking up the pen with both hands and drawing on the paper at the same time. With just a few swipes, a rough draft has been drawn, and even dialogue has been added. The remaining work was to add the background and detailed drawing, which progressed at a rapid pace.

He drew so fast, but the design of the drawings was not bad at all. There were many comic scenes, and even Stan Lee felt inspired.

"You can actually draw like this! Why do I become so nervous after watching such a bland plot?" Stan Lee was reading the draft while improving the details. At the same time, he was also studying Alex’s decomposed composition to see the characteristics of his comic lens language.

Seeing Alex showing off his power, Stan Lee couldn't believe his eyes, but he had to believe it. He told Goodman: "Luckily he was on our side, otherwise we would have been miserable.

Goodman shook his head and said, "It's a good thing he didn't put his energy into drawing comics, otherwise we would all be unemployed."

No matter how much they marveled, Alex was only going to make this one exception, and he didn't want to be stuck drawing comics. Before he left, he also said: "Don't forget the special issue of "Captain America". My brother Richard wants to see it."

The "Harry Potter" comics were just something Alex made on a whim, and he didn't care at all whether the comics would be a hit or not. As for the legal issues, Alex didn't need to pay attention to them. He just let the lawyers handle them. The rights to adapt the novel into movies and comics are still in the hands of Alex, and Bantam Books only has the publishing rights to the novel.

This "Harry Potter" comic is different from all European and American comics on the market now, not only in style, but also in the plot of the comic.

Marvel quickly put together an issue of "Harry Potter" comics, because the comic book market is now at a low point, teenagers can't buy the comics they like, and the market is in an extremely hungry state.

The publication of the "Harry Potter" comics is like a clear spring flowing in front of desert travelers who are about to die of thirst. The first issue of the comic was sold out as soon as it was released. Faced with such good news, Surprise Company stepped up its secondary printing and was immediately digested after being put on the market.

At first, parents held a wait-and-see attitude toward comics adapted from children's fantasy novels. They soon discovered that such fantasy comics were much better than those that promoted bloody violence. Many adults also bought a copy and went back to read it, and were immediately fascinated by it.

The fresh painting style, magical magic, and twists and turns of the story all attract people to watch. In addition, other types of comics on the market are now suppressed, and various factors have combined to make this comic popular all over the United States.

Other comic companies seemed to see a ray of hope, and they suddenly realized: "It turns out that comics can still be drawn like this!"

Suddenly, many comic companies began to pay attention to this kind of fantasy novels, and successively published comics of fantasy novels such as "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Chronicles of Narnia". Bloody and violent hero comics were expelled by fantasy comics, and the tough-line style of painting was replaced by a fresh and beautiful style.

Inadvertently, Alex took American comics on a new path. This was something he didn't expect at first.

By acquiring the shares of Marvel and DC early on, Alex only used it as a casual move and did not expect these two companies to bring him immediate profits. He is still prepared to invest money in fast food or supermarkets. He has already had a goal for the choice of fast food.

The acquisition of a comic company is just a small investment for Alex, and it is nothing in his investment plan. Even if the investment of less than one million US dollars was lost, it would not be a loss to him. The comics industry is in a very bad situation right now, so Alex is taking advantage of it.

If in the 1960s and 1970s, he wanted to acquire it at such a price, it would have been impossible.

The investment company's first investment was comics, and then he thought of supermarkets and fast food. He feels that there are opportunities everywhere now, and as long as you make the right choice, you must take action decisively. In a few years, there won't be such a good opportunity.

For supermarkets, you have to find Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart. Investing in the world's largest supermarket is a good choice. It's a pity that Sam still doesn't know where the owner of the small supermarket is, so he can't find him anywhere. This plan can only be put aside temporarily and started again when a suitable time is found.

When talking about fast food, Alex first thinks of KFC and McDonald's. In his memory, these two fast food restaurants were almost all over the world. The staff of the investment company quickly contacted the founder of KFC, Colonel Harland Sanders.

Alex also knew something about Sandoz's experience of making a fortune. It can be said to be a very inspiring story. "Persistence" is the biggest reason for Sandoz's success.

As early as 1930, Sanders opened a fried chicken restaurant in Kentucky, which was the prototype of KFC. The outbreak of World War II disrupted his plans and his hotel was greatly affected.

He had to sell his assets to pay off his debts, and the proceeds amounted to only half of his total assets before the road opened. Even his bank savings were exhausted in order to pay off his debts. All of a sudden, Harlan Sanders, the once respected colonel, changed from a respected rich man to a penniless poor man.

At this time, Sanders was already 56 years old and could only rely on relief funds every month. He did not want to spend the rest of his life like this.

So he started his second business. He took a pressure cooker and a 50-pound bucket of ingredients and drove his old Ford on the road. Wearing a white suit and a black bow tie, the white-haired colonel, dressed like a Southern gentleman, stopped at the entrance of every restaurant from Kentucky to Ohio, selling the secret recipe for fried chicken and asking for a fried chicken performance for the boss and the clerk.

If they like fried chicken, just sell them a franchise, provide them with ingredients, and teach them how to fry it. At first, no one believed in him. In two years, he was rejected 1,009 times, and finally on the 1,010th time When I walked into a restaurant, I got the answer "Okay."

After that, Sanders' idea was accepted by more and more people, who liked the taste of fried chicken made using this method.

In 1952, the first authorized KFC restaurant was established in Salt Lake City, which was the beginning of the world's catering franchise. Then, to the surprise of more people, Sandoz's business snowballed. At this time in 1955, Sandoz planned to expand its business scope and needed to invest more funds.

When people from investment companies contacted Sandoz, he was planning to establish a KFC Co., Ltd. For Sanders, Alex's funds were like someone giving him a pillow when he wanted to sleep. It came at the right time. Alex did not get involved in the negotiations. He only knew that he finally spent US$500,000 to get 46% of the shares.

With Alex's funding, KFC has developed 500 chain stores in the United States and Canada in just 2 years. Alex's original $500,000 has turned into millions. UU reading www. ukanshu.net

But things didn't go so smoothly for McDonald's. He asked people to contact brothers Richard McDonald and Maurice McDonald, hoping to discuss the acquisition with them. But the McDonald brothers had to meet Alex in person before they were willing to talk about a shareholding or acquisition.

In 1940, the McDonald brothers opened the first McDonald's restaurant in San Bernardino, California. After more than ten years of development, there are already 8 branches.

When Alex approached them, the McDonald brothers were preparing to license Ray Kroc to open a ninth location. If it had been a few days later, maybe they would have negotiated terms.

In order to make the acquisition successful, as soon as Alex contacted the McDonald brothers, he immediately flew over to find them. It was shortly after Christmas in 1954, and people were already going to work. The festive atmosphere still lingers in the air, with sweet and fragrant holiday scents everywhere.

Knowing that Alex was coming, the McDonald brothers quickly got ready for work. The two of them have also watched "The Sound of Music" and are both fans of Alex's movie and fans.

Soon, Alex saw two brothers who were almost over fifty. The eldest brother was already over fifty, and the younger brother was almost fifty. The two of them were fat and smiling. Their faces are very similar, and you can tell they are two brothers at a glance.

As early as 1928, Little McDonald had just graduated from high school. He couldn't find a job, so he ran to California to join his older brother, Big McDonald. They were so poor at first that they had no money to open a shop, so they set up a street stall selling hot dogs, and then slowly turned into a fast food chain selling French fries and burgers.
