The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Yang Dongxu's set of combo punches made Shueisha executives feel the pressure instantly. If we say that many manga clubs also felt that Yang Dongxu's contract was indeed a bit too much.

Even if it was because Shueisha wanted to take advantage at the beginning, and it has been taking advantage of it for three years. But this kind of precedent cannot be set, otherwise, if some cartoonists want to follow this contract, it will also affect their cartoon club, right?

But once "Pokémon" came out, I couldn't control so much. After all, although the contract was too much, it was three years ago, when the author of "Dragon Ball" was more farsighted and Shueisha was stupid.

So as long as both parties have the sincerity to cooperate, and they don't believe in raising the price a bit higher, the author of "Dragon Ball" will make unreasonable demands like the previous contract.

Therefore, when it was determined that "Pokémon" had great market prospects, although it was not known how popular it would be, it was definitely an excellent work, and other manga clubs who shared the same hatred as Shueisha immediately threw Shueisha aside.

They are the competitors of Shueisha, not the younger brothers of Shueisha. It’s okay because of the face of their peers and they will be affected by you. If your own interests are involved, who cares about your Shueisha’s life and death.

"Bastards, bastards, a bunch of short-sighted guys, how could God Amaterasu have you stupid people." The president of Shueisha was furious in the office after receiving other manga clubs' efforts to connect with the mainland.

This made the female secretary hide under the table like a quail, not daring to move. When the bad old man answered the phone just now, he sat up suddenly.

Fortunately, I worked hard for a long time, and I was worried that if my teeth were scratched, I would get some injuries. She couldn't afford it. She knew that the former secretaries were still begging for life in the red light district.

"What are you doing squatting down there, you bitch, why don't you call the people below for a meeting?" After a fire, everything in the office that could be smashed fell to the ground, the president of Shueisha yelled, there was no Note that the door is still closed.

Ten minutes later, the conference room was full of high-level executives from Shueisha, and Ono was wiping cold sweat in it. When the president came in, everyone stood up and saluted, but a few people obviously noticed the president's next door.

Then he couldn't help but look at the very enchanting female secretary who was following behind the president, and the few of them instantly found the companion who discovered this scene as if telepathically, and looked at each other, the look in their eyes was very obscene.

"You already know the news, what should we do now?" The gray-haired president didn't let himself go and opened the door, roaring loudly.

"If it's just a matter of the lawsuit, we can delay it for two or three years, and print "Dragon Ball" during the lawsuit, so that even if the lawsuit loses, we will pay liquidated damages, which is more profitable than fulfilling the contract.

But now he took out "Pokemon" and read it according to the information he inquired. This is another excellent comic. So we now need to make a choice, whether to fulfill the contract and continue to cooperate, or to make a one-off deal with this cartoonist. "

Some people began to speak in the conference room, and many people nodded. The key issue now is not the "Dragon Ball" contract, they don't care even if Yang Dongxu goes to court.

The side they care about has greater interests. "Dragon Ball" has been dominating the RB rankings for a long time, and it is the first batch of comics to go out of the RB country with good results.

Now "Pokémon" is also very good, so will this cartoonist named Xiaoxu produce better cartoons in the future? If he is a high-yield and quality-guaranteed cartoonist, then the profits here will be huge. Of course, the subsequent comic contracts must not be formulated like the "Dragon Ball" contract.

"Ono, is there really no way to discuss the contract?" The president looked at Matsutomo Ono who was constantly wiping away his sweat.

"It's definitely not going to work. After several contacts, Xiao Xujun has already started to get annoyed. I thought about going to the embassy and using diplomatic influence to let Chinese officials put pressure on him.

But you know, although China needs our funds very much now, it has changed its attitude towards us. But it is not very friendly to both parties, so this influence is limited. "

"Do you think he's a genius cartoonist?" someone asked.

All eyes were on Ono, this was the crux of the meeting. How valuable Xiaoxu is affects the final decision.

"I haven't been in contact with him for a long time, so I can't judge, but being able to come up with two excellent comics "Dragon Ball" and "Pokémon" already shows his talent, and more importantly, he is only 13 years old this year."

That's right, he was 13 years old. This answer made the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly sink. He was able to produce "Dragon Ball" at the age of 13. No, Dragon Ball has been serialized for four years. That is to say, he could get "Dragon Ball" when he was nine years old. Out of "Dragon Ball Comics".

After four years of precipitation, "Pokemon" was released. Does that mean that after a few years of experience in life, or when he gets more inspiration from things, he will release other excellent comics?

The people here have seen too many cartoonists who became famous through a cartoon over the years, but ended up unknown. However, judging from the current situation, Xiao Xu does not belong to those short-lived cartoonists, but is very likely to be a cash cow.

Mid-levels of Hong Kong, although it is not as prosperous as later generations, it already has the prototype of a rich area. People who can live here are either rich or expensive. Not to mention the villas on the top of the mountain, just having a house in this area is not an ordinary person can expect.

Fu Chaming has been back for several days, but his father has been practicing Zen and no one dares to disturb him. The old man didn't come back from the temple until today.

On the surface, rich families are not visible in Hong Kong. Even though they live in the mid-levels, they are only apartments, not those more eye-catching villas. It's not that the rich can't afford it, but that they have been guarding against something.

"Tell me how you met him, and don't miss any details." When an old man who was over seventy years old sat on the big chair in the study with a walking stick, all the rich people breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the old man in front of him has handed over his power for many years, and the young master is already the head of the family, but compared to the old man in front of him, the young master is still far behind.

"It's like this." Fu Chaming told the story of meeting old man Xuan from the beginning to the end.

"You said he has a descendant, but he is not from the clan?" The old man tapped the envelope on the table with his fingers, his eyes flickering.

"Yes, that's a 13-year-old kid who is very seasoned in his work. I tried to get some words from him, but I didn't get a useful one. I found out through other channels later that he has nothing to do with Master Xuan. The god-grandson brought back from the countryside by another teacher."

"The disciples he taught, if you can say whatever you want, it's really hard to judge whether those words are true or not, but it's normal for you to be unable to act." The old man tapped his fingers, and everyone in the room respected Standing still, no one dared to speak.

After a while, the old man waved his hand to let everyone out, then opened the envelope and read it. The expression on the face of the old man who read the letter changed drastically, from ecstasy to grief, and terrified from time to time.

It wasn't until the letter was burned in the ashtray and the ashes were crushed, an hour later, that the old man's face returned to normal, and he rang the bell next to the table, and the sons and grandson Fu Chaming who had been waiting outside came in. .

"The mainland economy is gradually liberalized, but you all know the situation of our family. Haven't you been arguing about whether to invest in the mainland?"

"Dad, have you made up your mind?" A middle-aged man standing in the second place looked happy.

"It can't be regarded as a good idea. I know that you don't agree and don't work hard. No matter what I say, you are just dealing with me, a bad old man, on the surface."

"Don't dare." Everyone in the room bowed, not daring to take a breath.

"This has nothing to do with daring or not. I can understand that you have your own demands. Now let me make it clear. Hong Kong has a foundation. This is our root. No matter what risks we encounter, we can have a place to stay. place.

Overseas development and inland development are going on at the same time. Aren't you optimistic about the mainland and overseas? Remove one-third of immovable assets, one-fifth of other assets are in the mainland, and four-fifths are overseas.

Whoever goes there chooses by himself, and those who don't want to go anywhere stay here with me, an old man, to guard the family business. When Xiao Ming goes to the mainland, if it is possible to get in touch with the Yang Dongxu you mentioned more, if he can choose to cooperate with him. "

"It's father."

"It's grandpa."

Seeing the old man waving his hands, the group left the study room. The eldest brother who was walking in the front, that is, Fu Chaming's father, showed joy on his face, as did the third and fourth uncles.

But Fu Chaming's second uncle and fifth uncle frowned, although the old man was still unlikely to be involved in the division of family property. But now the separate development has begun to draw the line.

After all, the boss brought the other two brothers to specialize in the overseas market. If they win the country, even if the old man doesn't say it, it will be the foundation of the three of them in the future.

Similarly, the country that the second child and the fifth child went to the mainland to fight, is not something that the boss and the others can reach out to in the future. But at present, the investment funds in the mainland are small, and there are many overseas investments, which makes the second and fifth children unhappy.

What is divided now is the meat in the mouth, so it is natural to care about how much. But the old man has spoken. Although they can't be brothers and sisters like the old man said, this matter obviously cannot be violated.

From the perspective of the amount of funds, Mr. Kai seems to be optimistic about overseas, otherwise he would not invest four-fifths of the funds at once. But from the perspective of personnel arrangement, they are more optimistic about the mainland.

Fu Chaming is not only a grandson, he is also the most beloved grandson of the old man, even more favored than his father, the eldest son.

Although the second generation is still there, the old man has already trained him to be his successor. So from this point of view, the old man is more optimistic about the mainland market.
