Winners in life: starting from the street writer

Chapter 114 Top Cartoonist

After the excitement in her heart had vented a bit, Su Manman realized that this was at the door of the classroom.

Even the teacher who taught them just now is eating melons not far away.

For Su Manman, all teachers will like it very much.

Good-looking, good in character and learning, who can not love it?
When Su Manman realized it, she was immediately ashamed.

"Okay, if you have anything to say, let's go out and talk."

Shen Hao patted Su Manman's back lightly, and then walked out of the teaching building with Su Manman's soft little hand.

Along the way, the two of them can be said to be particularly eye-catching.

The handsome men and the beautiful women are all god-like.

If it wasn't for the man in a suit and unlike a student, he could have taken a picture of it directly and used it as an admissions video for Zhejiang University.

At the parking lot, Shen Hao opened the door.

Su Manman sat in the co-pilot cautiously, fastened her seat belt, and clenched her little hands tightly, like a little white rabbit about to be eaten by a big bad wolf.

Shen Hao just fastened his seat belt, when he saw Su Manman like this, he was immediately amused, "Are you so afraid of getting along with me?"

"No, it's just... I'm not used to it."

Su Manman said in a low voice.

She lived with her grandmother since she was a child, and has a perfect face. One can imagine how exaggerated the flies around her are.

If grandma would pick her up on time every time after school, she might have been taken advantage of by some unruly gangsters or children from rich families.

Before seeing Shen Hao's photo, Su Manman also imagined what kind-hearted people who have been supporting her would look like.

If it was a middle-aged person, Su Manman's thought at that time was that in the future, she must do her best to repay the other party's kindness.

But she happened to see a picture of Shen Hao, a brother next door with an extremely warm smile.

Since then, an idea has gradually sprouted in her heart. When she grows up, she must marry brother Shen Hao who has always supported her.

She even created a manga featuring herself and Shen Hao as the male and female protagonists, which gained a lot of love from fans after it was released.

But in the comics, after all, it's just her fictional world.

In real life, it was the first time I saw Shen Hao himself.

Shen Hao is more handsome and outstanding than she imagined, which made her feel a little inferior.

She didn't even have the courage to express her feelings to Shen Hao.

"Manman, do you have any hobbies?"

Shen Hao began to test side-by-side.

"I like drawing."

Su Manman dare not say that she is a cartoonist.

She was afraid that Shen Hao would be ashamed to death when he saw the comics created with himself and him as the theme.

Shen Hao smiled and said, "That's good, I just created a comic company, if you are interested, you can consider coming to my side."

Su Manman was a little surprised, she didn't expect Shen Hao to open a comic company.

Is this the so-called fate?
Su Manman was originally a girl with a very rich inner world, otherwise she would not have become a well-known cartoonist.

Without showing his face, relying on his comics, he gained the support of a large number of fans.

This also made her, who was sensitive and inferior since she was a child, gradually become more cheerful.

Just as she was thinking about something, when the car stopped, Su Manman subconsciously looked outside.

The glass curtain wall shining brightly in the sun, the majestic door face, and two security guards in white uniforms standing at the door solemnly.

What a beautiful office building!
"arrive."

Shen Hao smiled and said to Su Manman, and then parked the car at the gate of Yuanmeng Building.

Two security guards hurried over to open the door, and greeted respectfully, "Mr. Shen."

"Ah."

Shen Hao nodded, and led Su Manman into the interior of Yuanmeng Building.

After entering the building, Su Manman looked at the well-dressed white-collar workers and greeted Shen Hao respectfully one after another, which made her a little curious.

Take the elevator all the way to the 8th floor, where many workers are carrying materials, and several people are directing at the top of their voices.

When the conductors saw Shen Hao bringing a girl over, they trotted over immediately.

"Mr. Shen."

The middle-aged man at the front is Zhang Youfeng, the president of Yuanmeng Comics.

Before that, he served as the vice president of Youqi, and was responsible for the animation production and operation of Youqi, the development and operation of full-line products, the introduction and signing of content, and copyright management related work.

It can be said that the other party is definitely one of the few senior managers in the field of domestic comics.

Facing the position of president offered by Shen Hao, and the annual salary of 200 million + 5% option.

Zhang Youfeng really couldn't refuse this kind of temptation, so he jumped over decisively and joined Shen Hao's command.

And Shen Hao did not disappoint his trust.

He was given 1500 million yuan for the initial budget alone, which is equivalent to about [-] million US dollars.

Even if Bilibili bought You Yaoqi, which has been famous for many years, it only cost 6 million yuan.

With such a strong financial backer, Zhang Youfeng is also full of confidence, and even brought a few capable generals from Yaoqi.

No, the few people were dumbfounded when they first arrived at Yuanmeng Building.

The whole building is actually owned by Mr. Shen personally.

Hey, it's more than a billion, right?
As for the office area, Shen Hao is also very aggressive, and directly gave them two floors, which can be expanded if it is not enough.

At the beginning of many comic companies, they were either in residential buildings or in an old dilapidated office building.

Like Yuanmeng comics, it is really rare to start with a golden key in your mouth and be born in a wealthy family.

In terms of recruiting, Zhang Youfeng is still very concerned.

But in the final analysis, the comics platform is a content distribution platform, and it needs excellent cartoonists to create works in order to retain users.

But the problem is, at this point in time, many cartoonists have already signed contracts with the platform.

The cost of poaching people is quite high, and some are not worthwhile.

But without a cartoonist who can support the stage, it is difficult to break out of the encirclement.

Goose Factory has an advantage in the field of comics. Not only has it invested in Kuaikan Comics, but the influence of its own comic platform is also very good.

Especially in terms of comic IP adaptation, Goose Factory should not have too much advantage by relying on its own video platform.

Followed by, there is a demon spirit, switching to the door of station B, and also has a channel advantage, but can break the wrist with the goose factory.

But what about their dream come true comics?
No cartoonists, no video platforms.

I can only work hard by myself.

Fortunately, in terms of App, there is Lynch, a technical expert, and the first version of the App will be launched in a short time.

Shen Hao chatted with Zhang Youfeng about the development direction of the website.

For Yuanmeng comics, Shen Hao planned to burn money to gain the number of users in the early stage. When the website grows bigger, he will find a way to make up for losses by paying for members, knowledge and advertisements.

But in the early stage, all the works of Yuanmeng Manga were free for downloading users to watch.

Shen Hao is very clear about how lethal the two words are for free.

Whether it's games, novels, or comics, many platforms hold high the banner of free at the beginning.

Wait until the plate is bigger, and then find a way to generate income.

Zhang Youfeng also agrees with Shen Hao's thinking.

But regarding the future development, Shen Hao refused without hesitation whether to introduce Korean manga-style works like Kuaikan comics.

Dream come true comics, only do comics exclusive to Chinese people.

This can also be regarded as the slogan Shen Hao set for Yuanmeng comics.

Su Manman looked at the radiant Shen Hao, and the figure in her heart gradually overlapped with Shen Hao completely.

Seeing that Shen Hao and Zhang Youfeng finished chatting about business.

Su Manman next to him hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother Shen Hao, I'm also a cartoonist, so let me be the first cartoonist signed by your platform."

"Uh... who is this?"

Zhang Youfeng had already seen that Su Manman seemed to have an unusual relationship with Shen Hao, but the big boss didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to speculate.

"This is Su Manman, my sister."

Shen Hao briefly introduced Zhang Youfeng, and was overjoyed that Su Manman finally spoke, otherwise it would be useless for him to be anxious.

"Has Miss Manman ever created comics before?"

Zhang Youfeng didn't pay much attention at first, thinking that Shen Hao was just boasting.

But when Su Manman opened Kuaikan Manga and logged into her account, the manga that was being serialized had more than 300 million likes and a popularity value of 200 billion.

As a veteran in the field of comics, Zhang Youfeng is naturally very sensitive to such data.

Moreover, this is Su Manman's second comic, and the results of the previous one are also very good.

Hey, such a beautiful girl is actually a top manga artist?
Su Manman's ears are red, because this comic is called "My Lord Demon King", the male protagonist is completely based on Shen Hao, and the female protagonist is naturally her.

In the comics, she can fantasize to her heart's content, let the male protagonist dote on her in every possible way, and gain the crazy admiration of a large number of girls.

But in front of Shen Hao, Su Manman felt inexplicably ashamed.

"Su Manman... Su slowly, I should have thought of it earlier!"

Zhang Youfeng patted his forehead, smiled wryly and shook his head.

But at this time, he looked very excited.

With Su Manman here, Yuanmeng Comics will have a top cartoonist in charge.

With Su Manman's enthusiasm, creating another work in Yuanmeng Comics will definitely bring a lot of traffic.

Zhang Youfeng said with a serious expression: "Mr. Shen, a top cartoonist like Ms. Manman is definitely a talent at the strategic level of each platform. I suggest giving Ms. Manman a generous long-term contract."

"Of course, Manman, you sign a contract with Dream Comics, and I will give you 2% of the shares + a basic salary of 200 million, what do you think?"

Shen Hao was not stingy with Su Manman, and made a very generous offer.

"200?"

Su Manman shook her head quickly, "Just follow the normal industry standards, no need to make an exception for me."

"Silly girl, believe me, this 2% share will benefit you for a lifetime in the future."

Shen Hao pampered Su Manman's head, and made the decision without any explanation.

With Su Manman's ability as a top cartoonist, any comic platform would like to confess her.

This is also because of the special relationship between her and Shen Hao.

Otherwise, with this girl's personality, she might not be easily poached by other platforms.

Seeing Su Manman nodding in agreement, Zhang Youfeng let out a long sigh of relief, and couldn't help gloating at his misfortune.

Kuaikan Comic, as the leading company in the domestic comic field, monopolizes more than half of the market share, but losing a top cartoonist like Su Manman would be a pain in the ass.

Especially for "My Lord Demon King", even if you want to purchase the copyright of the comics quickly, you have to get Su Manman's consent first.

Zhang Youfeng has also read Su Manman's cartoon, which is very suitable for adaptation. Don't ask for 1000 million, I am really sorry for Su Manman's level.
