Chapter 402 "Saint Seiya"

"What? You want me to make a cartoon?" Yang Ming couldn't help shouting in surprise.. Top..2x.co

"I have no choice. Among all the programs on our TV station, the six o'clock program "Animation World" is relatively weak." Wu Yuanzhi said with a frown.

As Phoenix TV has become more and more popular these days, more and more people are watching it. Some issues that were not taken seriously before have now been magnified and criticized by some people and brought to the media for discussion.

The programs that Yang Ming poached from well-known hosts were all copies of classic program ideas from his previous life. Even if there was a problem, it wasn't a big deal. At most, it was just that everyone had different tastes.

However, compared to other columns with their own characteristics, the six o'clock cartoons do have many problems.

At that time, Phoenix TV was established in a hurry. Neither Yang Ming nor Wu Yuanzhi considered cartoons. Wu Yuanzhi's idea was that cartoons are a niche among niches anyway. When the time comes, just buy any cartoon and broadcast it first.

So she didn't remind Yang Ming and bought a cartoon "Forest Lion" from somewhere else at a suitable price.

However, as Phoenix TV became more popular and its influence grew, this somewhat shoddy cartoon was criticized by people from all walks of life.

Originally, this was not a big deal, and even the cartoons of some other TV stations are not as good as Phoenix TV, but there is no way, why is Phoenix TV so popular now!

Listening to Wu Yuanzhi's narration, Yang Ming rubbed his eyebrows. To be honest, he didn't notice this at the time. After all, he focused his attention and energy on those very influential columns, so he really didn't notice it.

Cartoons.

He really didn't expect that this flaw would be exploited by people with ulterior motives. As for these people, Yang Ming knew without thinking that they must be the old TV stations who were poached.

Except for them, no one will use this to attack Phoenix TV.

Phoenix TV's foothold is not stable now, and it still needs time to consolidate its position. It cannot make any mistakes!

"Sister Wu, don't worry. Leave the matter to me. I'll bring out new cartoons for you in one week!" Yang Ming said fiercely. Since those TV stations didn't give up, he had no choice but to make a big move.

.

"Okay!" Wu Yuanzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Ming immediately started calling Liu Xinsheng, Sister Zhu, and Ma Yun respectively, asking them to find an animation production company suitable for acquisition.

The animation industry is also a part of his plan. Originally, he didn't want to start it so soon, but there have been too many changes during this period, and now he has to start getting involved in animation early.

In fact, Yang Ming could also find an animation company to pay for the production of cartoons, but now he just takes one step, acquires an animation company, and does it himself.

At present, in China's animation industry, except for those old and large animation companies that are profitable, most other animation companies are mainly losing money. There is no way, China's animation market is too small.

The next day, Yang Ming hurried to the airport early in the morning to receive his master and two senior brothers back to their place of residence. He immediately went to the company to discuss which animation company to acquire.

After a short meeting, Yang Ming immediately decided to acquire an animation company named Ma Liang.

This animation company is also a well-known animation company in China. It is not too big in scale, but it has suffered losses for many years and is now on the verge of bankruptcy. The boss of Ma Liang Animation Company has long wanted to get rid of it, but no one is willing to accept it.

That's all.

Therefore, when Yang Ming saw the detailed information of this company, he immediately decided to acquire this company.

In addition to the advantage that this company is small but well-equipped, another point is that the company's animation works have strong Chinese characteristics, which makes Yang Ming very satisfied.

You know, there are many classic animation works in Yang Ming's mind that are foreign and need to be transformed into animation works suitable for today's Chinese background. Now that there is this animation company that insists on the characteristics of Chinese style, this makes Yang Ming's adaptation

Work gets twice the result with half the effort!

Yang Ming asked Liu Xinsheng to handle the acquisition of Ma Liang Animation. Now he has to consider which classic cartoon to produce.

Sometimes it’s frustrating to have too many things to choose from.

Yang Ming sat in the office, writing and drawing on paper, and began to analyze the classic features in his mind, and which cartoon to choose.

"Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf"? This cartoon can be called the most profitable and most successful domestic cartoon. However, I don't know why Yang Ming doesn't want to release this cartoon so early.

It’s not that I’m reluctant to give it up, or that the style doesn’t match it. It can be said that this cartoon does not require any changes, and it can be regarded as the cartoon of this generation.

However, Yang Ming didn't know why and couldn't make up his mind to choose this cartoon.

After thinking about it, he felt that maybe it was because this cartoon was not his favorite cartoon as a child!

"Saint Seiya"!

Yang Ming wrote these big words on the paper vigorously. This was the favorite of his generation when they were children. No cartoon can replace the status of this cartoon in his heart!

Not even "Dragon Ball", "One Piece", "Slam Dunk", "Detective Conan", "Crayon Shin-chan", "Doraemon", etc.

After thinking about it in his mind, he had to admit the fact that those classic animations in the previous life were basically from Japan, but in this life, they are considered to be from China!

Let’s start with “Saint Seiya”!

Since Japanese culture was born out of China, and this cartoon is mainly based on the background of Greek mythology, there is relatively little content that needs to be changed, and it can basically be copied.

As soon as Yang Ming thought of "Saint Seiya", a cartoon he had watched every day as a child and forgot to eat and sleep, he suddenly became excited. He immediately picked up a pen and started writing the plot.

Liu Xinsheng's acquisition speed was very fast, and it only took one day to handle various matters.

The boss of Ma Liang Animation wanted to sell it, but Yang Ming was not short of money. He offered the boss a price of 1 million, wiped off the small change, and concluded the transaction at a price of 20 million.

When the employees of Ma Liang Animation came to work the next day, they found that their company's sign had been replaced by the sign of Oriental Animation. Some people even thought they had joined the wrong company!

Oriental Animation was also in Yanjing. After the acquisition was completed, Yang Ming took the plot of "Saint Seiya" to this company that was already his own and held the first meeting.

When he printed out the script of "Saint Seiya" and sent it to all the elites from Ma Liang Animation present, after a while, the elites who read part of the script became excited and breathed heavily!

"Boss, this animation script is so creative, especially the tricks in it are so attractive!" A man wearing thick glasses stood up and said with spitting.

Yang Ming looked up at the man with glasses with a smile on his face and knew that the man with glasses who looked a bit geeky was called Lian Xingyu, and he was the original chief artist of Ma Liang Animation.

In fact, the foundation of Ma Liang's animation is not bad, and the animation painting style is also unique in China. The production technology is not as good as the previous ones, but more than the lower ones.

If it is run properly, it will never be on the verge of bankruptcy due to losses. This also shows how incompetent the previous senior executives responsible for business development of this animation company were.

Therefore, after taking over the animation company, Yang Ming fired all the senior executives responsible for business operations and asked Liu Xinsheng to recruit suitable personnel. As for all technical personnel, he retained them and increased their wages by 10%.

"Everyone!" Yang Ming knocked on the table, coughed lightly, and said seriously: "I am a director, and scripts are what I am good at. Now that you agree with this script, the next thing will be left to everyone here. I hope

You can create a classic anime!"

"Mr. Yang, don't worry. With your idea and the draft, if we don't get it right, all of us will just commit suicide together. We can't afford to lose this person!" Lian Xingyu pushed.

With glasses on the bridge of his nose, he said extremely seriously. After he finished speaking, he loudly asked the people around him: "What do you think?"

"Lian Gong is right. If this doesn't work, we'll hit you head first and we'll die!"

"That's right, that's right, if that's the case, from now on we can only live with our heads in our crotches!"

...

All the technicians present in the conference room shouted extremely seriously. When Yang Ming saw this, he slowly felt relieved. He was afraid that because of Ma Liang Company's previous failures, these technicians would lose confidence or be perfunctory.

, now it seems that the military morale is available!

Immediately, Yang Ming devoted himself wholeheartedly to plot discussions and character design.

Because he already had a very vivid and complete picture of each character in his mind, he did not waste time and directly drew a rough image of each character. He also wrote out the personality requirements of each character one by one, and let the technical staff perfect it.

.

For two days, Yang Ming ate and drank at the newly acquired Oriental Animation Company, discussing every detail of "Saint Seiya" with the staff.

Even the loan procedures from Hongmu Fund were handled by Manager Cao with the contract at the animation company. After receiving the money, Yang Ming asked Chen Yongjun to acquire Donghai Cinema Line.

As for Phoenix TV, Oriental Company, and Popcorn Network, they are all developing according to the plan. There are no major issues that require Yang Ming to handle personally. However, "Liu Laogen" co-produced by Oriental DreamWorks and Zhao Laoyan is about to be filmed.

It’s over, it will be broadcast on Northeast TV.

Now that there is Phoenix TV, this alternative network TV channel that belongs entirely to Yang Ming, neither Zhao Laoyan nor Wang Qidong is worried about their cooperation with Oriental DreamWorks Star Studio.

Because Phoenix TV is so popular now, especially on the Internet, it completely crushes all other TV stations in China. Moreover, the number of visits and viewers of Phoenix TV on the Internet has risen to astonishingly high in just two weeks.

One cannot ignore the situation.

This data is still growing further. In addition, the number of users of network power companies is also increasing rapidly, and the number of viewers on the cable TV side of Phoenix TV is also increasing.

It can be said that the current blockade of Oriental DreamWorks by those first-tier TV stations is just a joke.

At this time, after a week of sleepless nights and food at the animation company, Yang Ming worked day and night with a group of technicians to finally produce the first five episodes of "Saint Seiya". He immediately called Wu Yuanzhi and prepared to start playing.
Chapter completed!
