Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 473 Otaku Aura
On the streets of Tokyo in the bleak autumn wind, dry branches sway in the wind, but there are still an endless stream of pedestrians and cars on the streets, and there are even traffic jams.

At this time, an ordinary-looking Toyota sedan was driving on the street.

In the car, Takahashi Kimura was driving, Sawajiri Shi was sitting in the passenger seat, and Li Wannian was sitting in the back seat, which was quite suitable for the status of the three people at this time.

Neon is a country with a strong sense of class, so no one would object to such a seat.

"Mr. Li, what you just said about letting Shenlong Animation be responsible for the animation of "Yu Yu Hakusho" is true?"

At this time, Sawajiri Shi suddenly turned around and asked Li Wannian, breaking the original calm in the carriage.

Li Wannian and Fu Shangbo only talked for half an hour in the coffee shop.

Although Li Wannian wanted to continue talking with Fu Shangbo, he saw that Fu Shangbo was too sleepy to open his eyes and finally decided to send him home.

Since the serialization started, Fu suggested that blogging has been really hard. He just paints there every day and doesn't have enough time for news.

Maybe it was precisely because of the hard life now that he later took a vengeful break from publishing and took a break. Sure enough, he had to pay back the money he came out to work in!

Of course, this time Li Wannian just sent Fu Shangbo downstairs instead of going up.

There is no way, the living environment of the rich man Shang Bo is so bad, Li Wannian really has a psychological shadow!
"Just a suggestion. Compared with other animation companies, Shenlong Animation has its own advantages, doesn't it?"

Of course Li Wannian knew why Sawajiri asked this question. Sawajiri, or most of Neon's animation practitioners, believed that Neon's animation production was the best in Asia, and even the world.

However, now Li Wannian actually plans to hand over Neon's comics to an animation company in Hong Kong for production. What does this mean?
Is your Hong Kong animation company more powerful?

Even if Li Wannian is their boss, they will still feel uncomfortable when this kind of competition involves the country.

"Advantage?"

Sawajiri Shi seemed reluctant to admit this.

Shenlong Animation is now quite famous in Neon. After all, the production company that adapted many of Li Wannian’s comics into animations is Shenlong Animation.

However, now that Shenlong Animation Production Company is coming to the Neon market to take orders, it will obviously be resisted by the inherent forces in this market.

"I'm just giving you an opinion. As for whether it can work out in the end, or how we can cooperate, that's all a matter later!"

Li Wannian is just talking about it today. Even if it doesn't work, can the two animation companies cooperate in production? How can the rules that have been established for decades be changed in an instant?

I just want to tear a hole in their strong fortress, and then slowly penetrate it, just like the original comics!
What's more, now Neon's animation company has been using a lot of outsourced animation companies from Hong Kong Island and mainland China, and they have not come into contact with many. It's just that Li Wannian wanted to promote the industrial upgrading of the animation company, but he encountered resistance!

Hearing Li Wancheng's understatement, Sawajiri nodded and said nothing more.

The company's major shareholders have talked about this, so I can only pretend not to hear it. How to solve this matter depends on what the boss has to say!

"Shall we go back to the hotel now?" "Since there is still time, let's go to Akihabara!"

Li Wannian saw the familiar streets outside the window, and his heart suddenly moved.

When the original time and space was in school in Neon, he often passed by here. Knowing that it was not far from Akihabara, he had an idea in his mind.

Of course, the two people in front had no objection. The car turned left and quickly entered the road to Akihabara.

After getting off the car, Li Wannian looked around and saw a second-dimensional aura coming towards him.

Various signboards sticking out of the street, colorful neon strips, as well as various two-dimensional posters and dolls. Although the flavor of "otaku culture" is not as strong as the otaku flavor twenty years later, it is completely the same as ten years ago. Compared to Akihabara in Electric Town, there have been earth-shaking changes!
Of course, the reason for such a big change is because of the most eye-catching two-dimensional animation city at the intersection of Akihabara!

Although this animation city has been here for almost ten years, the flow of people is still there.

But Li Wannian knew that this scene would not last long.

Just at the beginning of this year, DreamWorks has begun negotiations with the Tokyo City Government on the settlement of the Neon Branch of the Second Dimension Park!

To be honest, this decision was not that easy to negotiate!

Today, 30% of the visitors to Hong Kong Island’s ACG Paradise are neon tourists, and because they are particularly wealthy, they use 30% of the visitors to contribute 60% of the profits!
This is today’s neon tourist, just like the mainland tourists 20 years later, shopping everywhere!

Therefore, once another two-dimensional amusement park is opened in Tokyo, the local two-dimensional amusement parks on Hong Kong Island will lose a lot of profits. For their two-dimensional amusement parks themselves, this is equivalent to beating themselves up.

In this regard, Li Wannian's attitude is somewhat different from others!
He argued that the matter could be discussed, but it needed to be delayed!

Now is the time when the neon economy is at its hottest, and land prices in Tokyo have risen to the sky. Entering the market at this time, doesn’t it mean taking over the market at a high price?
Therefore, the best way is to wait for time, preferably two or three years, until Neon's economic bubble bursts and Tokyo's land prices are shattered. Only then can we truly bargain for the bottom.

Li Wannian originally thought that others could not understand this matter, but when he told his elder brother Li Wanshui this suggestion, he suddenly guessed Li Wannian's intention.

At this time, Li Wannian discovered that his eldest brother had also seen Neon's economic problems!

This made Li Wannian have to sigh again, there are so many smart people in this world!
In front of them, as a time traveler, I have no advantage at all!
However, this also brought the negotiations between the two parties about the two-dimensional paradise to a standstill.

Fortunately, the negotiation of a large project is not that easy in itself. It is all measured in years. The Tokyo City Government has not yet discovered it.

Although there are still a few years left, Li Wannian also knows that the prosperity of the two-dimensional animation city in front of him only has a few years left!
At this time, the Animation City did not seem to realize the coming ending, and it was still so prosperous.

On the walls on both sides of the animation city, posters of various familiar anime characters are pasted. A large Pikachu doll and girls cosplaying as Haruno Sakura, Lukia and Bulma (bunny girl version) are taking photos with tourists.

Even Li Wannian, a capitalist, couldn't bear to wear such thin clothes on such a cold day.

So, Li Wannian chose not to look at them. With complicated emotions, he blended into the crowd and walked into the animation city.
