Chapter 185 Comic Derivatives

Two days later, Zhang Benxiong from Xiangjiang Wanxin Company appeared in the office of Zhiduoxing in Bingcheng.

"Boss Zhang, you said it was a good thing to call me here, but I rushed over from Xiangjiang right away, can you tell me what it is now?" Zhang Benxiong asked with a smile.

"Are there a lot of people reading comics in Xiangjiang?" Zhang Yang asked.

"There are indeed quite a few. There are martial arts comics, funny comics, and urban comics. Among them, martial arts comics are the most popular, such as "Feng Yun". There are many people who like them."

"What about the overseas market? Are there translations published? Are they selling well?" Zhang Yang asked again.

"In Southeast Asia, people in many places understand Chinese, so it can be released without translation. But in Europe and the United States, the sales are very poor. Even in the mainland, few people have heard of it. After all, ours is in traditional Chinese characters. And mainlanders don’t seem to like reading comics?”

"In fact, comics are not just for children. I often buy comic books, just for entertainment, just like you read martial arts novels. This one is drawn, and the image is more vivid and three-dimensional."

"What does Boss Zhang mean, to introduce Xiangjiang's comics? I can help you match this, but you have to think about the related printing and sales channels."

Zhang Benxiong thought that Zhang Yang wanted to make comics, but he didn't mind doing a favor, so he could earn some money for his hard work. But this is not a good thing, is it necessary to let him participate in it?

"No, I'm not going to introduce Xiangjiang's comics, but I want you to help find some cartoonists in Xiangjiang, go to the mainland to guide my people, and jointly publish a comic, a fighting comic."

"Fighting comics? Boss Zhang, I didn't pour cold water on them. Few people read martial arts comics in the mainland. Does anyone like fighting comics?"

"In the mainland, children don't have much pocket money, right? They can't afford comic books. I haven't heard of serialized comic magazines. How do you make money?"

If it is a good subject, he can introduce it to Xiangjiang for publication and sales. Can fighting be as popular as martial arts?

"We don't do serialization, and strive to publish a single book directly. The most basic character setting and background setting, I have already done it here, and the main story line has also been determined. You'd better bring a comic screenwriter."

"It's not that no one reads comics in the mainland, but they are more expensive, and parents are not willing to buy them. But I heard that there are bookstores in Xiangjiang? There are also in the mainland."

"Fighting comics,

It's not unpopular, at least in the Mainland. Have you ever heard of an island manga called "Fist of the North Star"? Our comic contains more complex elements, and the moves will be very cool. Although there is no internal strength, it has its own power system. "

"Have you heard of the ultimate power? What about cosmic power? The power of the universe, the power of darkness, the power of regeneration, the power of the absolute field, etc. There will also be some special abilities added to it, such as the inextinguishable flame, advance perception, control of wind and water Wait. These are relatively intuitive, not only we Easterners can understand, Westerners can understand too.”

Zhang Benxiong looked at Zhang Yang puzzledly: "Boss Zhang, I can understand what you said. The name sounds more powerful and can be more attractive. But what are you going to do with this? It can make a lot of money? Or, are you going to Based on the characters in this comic, develop related games?"

"Hahaha, it's easy to talk to people who understand." Zhang Yang looked at Zhang Benxiong appreciatively, "That's right, the characters in my comics are related to the upcoming new game."

"I plan to release one version of this game a year, maybe ten or eight generations in the future. The same is true for comics, which promote each other."

In the previous life, there were many joint developments of this kind of comics and games, and even derived to film and television dramas, songs, novels, dolls, clothing and so on.

For example, the well-known Marvel universe is a classic case of successful development in the previous life, creating great value.

King of Fighters, this game has a pivotal position in the arcade history of China. People who have been to an arcade game hall, even if they haven't played it, know this game, and many people have read this comic.

It's a pity that the animation and other developments in the previous life were not good enough, not only in the mainland, but also in island countries and other home games.

However, the popularity of this game is definitely not low. It once ranked first in the arcade fighting category. After it develops into an online game in the future, there will still be many loyal players.

Not only because the characters in this game are handsome and the operation is fun, but also because the comics are well developed, which helps the characters to be more three-dimensional and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Zhang Benxiong understood, he looked at Zhang Yang: "So, what benefits can I get?"

If you ask me for help, it's not okay to help in vain. I can't say that you have taken all the benefits, just say thank you and that's it.

"Market sales outside the mainland are all entrusted to you as an agent. I don't care if you re-establish the company personally, or find someone else to translate and develop, or use Wanxin to develop. Zhiduoxing only mentions part of the sales. The specifics are detailed. Let's discuss it later."

Zhang Benxiong was very satisfied with Zhang Yang's answer: "Boss Zhang, chatting with you is a pleasure. You leave this matter to me. I will find a good person for you and bring them to the mainland within half a month at most. In fact, it is completely possible." Let Xiangjiang do it, and the technology there is more mature.”

Zhang Yang looked at Zhang Benxiong with a smile: "How much does a cartoonist in Xiangjiang cost, and how much does the inland cost? This part of the expenditure is ten times worse!"

A cartoonist in Xiangjiang earns tens of thousands of yuan a month, and even famous ones can get sales dividends. As for the mainland, it costs 300 yuan a month, and a lot of people are rushing to do it.

In the past, many comics in Daoguo and Xiangjiang were ghostwritten by people from the mainland, among which Modu Art Factory is the most famous one.

It's not that there are no good cartoonists in the mainland, but they don't understand the structure of their works, their vision is limited, and the mainland market is sluggish, so there are no particularly popular cartoons.

Moreover, they like to draw simple stories with relatively few pages. Zhang Yang requested that it be a long series, and he had to find a teacher from Xiangjiang to teach them.

"Okay, that's it. I'll contact you when the time comes, or someone else?"

"Sun Tengfei will contact you about this matter. He is at Zhiduoxing in Beijing, and now he has established a comic studio, and the relevant character designs are also there. The first thing you do when you come here is to make the appearance of the characters , The moves are confirmed, which is convenient for game development.”

"If you do well, then the overseas sales of the game in the future can also be entrusted to you as an agent!"
