My Animation Era

  Chapter 225 American Comic Superheroes (for subscription)

   Mr. Tan's recognition made the entire "Moonlight Is Beautiful" animation production team full of confidence.

  Even the sponsor's father agrees after reading it, which proves that everyone's efforts were not in vain, and everything is worth it!

  Since so...

  Then why hesitate?

  The next thing to do is to execute the original plan, complete the animation and dedicate it to the long-awaited fans.

   But New Year's Day is approaching.

  The new year has arrived. As the chief director of the animation "The Moonlight Is Beautiful", Gu Miao, besides being busy with the things at hand, has not forgotten that she is still the boss of the company.

  According to the Wanbao tradition.

   It's the end of the year, and he, the boss, has to show his face, go to the major subsidiaries to check his presence, and find out what achievements everyone has made in the past year.

  By the way, arrange the annual meeting.

yes…

  Wanbao also has an annual meeting this year!

  In the past two years, Wanbao was still in the "startup" stage, and couldn't even solve the problem of food and clothing. How could there be any annual meeting?

   Today is different from the past!

  As the saying goes, as poor as before, now there are nouveau riche.

   Just at the end of the year, the decoration of the company's headquarters building was completed, and Gu Miao also planned to celebrate it, so the "annual meeting" plan came into being.

  Wanbao Headquarters Building, as early as last year when the "Wanbao · Pleasant Goat Paradise" was built, it had already been planned and started construction in advance.

  Going around for half a year.

  To this day, Gu Miao finally received the news that the interior decoration has been completed and they can move in to work.

"Great!"

  After learning that, as the vice president of the group, he finally won't have to share a room with Huang Kun, and will soon have his own "independent" office, Ma Kui couldn't be more excited.

   "What are you happy about?!"

   "Give you an office, and you will be so happy? If I say, the company will assign a car to the vice president in the future?"

"Really?"

   Ma Kui's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that these words came from Mr. Gu's mouth.

when? Gu Dabing is so generous, is he willing to provide a car for the servants? Could it be that the car he mentioned has only two wheels?

"what are you thinking?"

  Gu Miao pretended to be annoyed and said, "Am I that stingy? As the vice president of Wanbao, you have some social status. If you don't get a car for you, if it gets out, you will think that I am treating the employees harshly."

"Great!"

   "Mr. Gu, I'm a low-key person, so please don't match me with any luxury car! Be realistic, a million-level car is almost enough."

  Ma Kui snapped his fingers, and settled the accounts for Gu Miao: "This way you can save a little money, and the company won't lose face when you drive it out. What do you think?"

   "I think you can die!"

  Gu Miao's expression twitched, wishing to lift the scalp of this guy to see whether it was a brain or a lump of paste.

  Millions, right?

  Allocating cars to the company’s executives was a decision made in consideration of the fact that Wanbao’s headquarters is a bit far from the core urban area, and public transportation is not very convenient.

  So this thing, as long as it can be driven!

  According to Ma Kui’s standard, it’s no longer a matter of “commuting”. Do we have to hire a full-time driver to drive him to and from get off work?

   "You look ugly, but you think you are beautiful!"

   Gu Miao snorted coldly: "A luxury car, right? I want to drive it and buy it myself! With your salary and bonus, you can't afford it, so don't even think about letting my wool go!"

"I knew it…"

  Hearing this, Ma Kui lost interest immediately and said: "But it's better than nothing, no matter what kind of car, as long as you match it for me, I like it."

   Laughing is uglier than crying, who will believe you?

   This hanging man is really inflated.

   Too lazy to deal with this thing, Gu Miao turned the signature pen in her hand, stared at a document on the table and asked, "Tell me, what's the situation with Mr. Nantong?"

"Is such that…"

  Ma Kui told Gu Miao the reason.

  The cause of the incident was that Gu Miao wanted to expand the "Wanbao Comics" company's business, so she arranged for Nantong to acquire a local neon comic publishing company.

  The intention is to attract talents.

   In the comics industry, there are not many practitioners in China, and there is even a lack of readers. If you want to develop and grow, you can only go overseas to recruit talents.

   As a result, during this process, Nantong Sensei accidentally met a friend who knew the North American publishing market very well. Under his introduction, Nantong discovered a North American comic company with great potential.

   "American comics?"

  Gu Miao took a look at the materials submitted by Nantong, feeling speechless for a while.

   Doesn't he know the things mentioned above? The North American comic market is not too small, so he will definitely pay attention to it.

   But this style is not suitable for Wanbao.

  Wanbao's core industry is animation, and other industries are extended around "animation", which means that the first task of comic companies must be to discover and provide IP that can be "adapted" into animation.

  What did Nan Tong discover?

   Of course, it is an "American superhero" comic with distinctive features and great appeal.

  Gu Miao didn't know about this thing!

  There are so many superhero blockbusters in the previous life, and I am tired of watching them. When it comes to origins, 90% of them come from early "American superhero" comics.

  Nan Tong wants to step into this field.

  To be honest, Gu Miao didn't object to him doing this. After all, superheroes are quite interesting to be honest, and they have great prospects in the future.

  But he wants to adapt animation, and even spend huge sums of money to acquire a well-established "American comic" company.

   This made Gu Miao hesitate.

  American superhero, is there any precedent for adapting animation?

  The answer is yes!

  Spiderman, Batman and other superheroes have actually been adapted into animations, and even achieved good results.

   But the work that really made superheroes shine, and even became popular all over the world, and their influence reached the peak, is still a "real person" adaptation.

   And live-action this piece...

  To be honest, a successful live-action adaptation requires not only a Hollywood production environment, but also the support of capital giants like Warner, Disney, and Fox.

  What is Wanbao?

  Gu Miao doesn't think that if the same superhero IP is in his hands, he can reproduce the same box office myth.

  The animation adaptation potential is not as good as real life.

   However, Wanbao does not have this strength, so it is adapted as a real person to maximize its benefits.

  So Gu Miao's attitude towards the superheroes of "Meiman" is a bit tasteless to be honest.

not to mention…

  Nantong's proposal is to directly acquire a North American comic company with a mature system and IP universe.

   This is not a small fortune!

  Even if the selected North American comic company is far from being as huge as Marvel and DC in terms of strength and IP influence. In the North American comic market, it is considered above average at best.

   Even so, the price to pay for acquiring such a mature comic company with stable profits is not a small sum.

   What a headache!

   Although they are not considered children anymore, I still wish everyone a happy Children’s Day!
