Chapter 123 Acquisition of Animation Studio
Zhao Chen suddenly felt a sudden stern, and his eyes subconsciously ignored the others busy on the floor, and turned to stare at the middle-aged man whose eyes were focused on him.
Before coming, he naturally collected some information about StudioDEEN Studio, including the main members. The middle-aged man in front of him was the current founder and chairman of StudioDEEN Studio. According to the information he collected, he was a very smart and stubborn guy.
In the future, StudioDEEN was able to be independent from Hitoshi Animation, and Hasegawa Yo naturally made great contributions. It was also because of his leadership and communication skills that StudioDEEN studio grew rapidly after independence and became one of the most famous animation clubs in the island country.
"This must be Teacher Zhao Chen. I didn't expect to be younger than the one on TV. I am Hasegawa Yo, who is now the chairman of StudioDEEN studio. It is my honor to meet the famous Teacher Zhao Chen!"
After looking at Zhao Chen up and down a few times, Hasegawa Yo said first. The smile on his face did not seem to be fake, and his words were full of enthusiasm. But Zhao Chen couldn't tell what he was thinking in his heart. He could only say that Hasegawa Yo's concealment skills were too outstanding.
"Hello, Chairman Hasegawa, you are so polite!"
"I almost forgot that Teacher Zhao Chen must have something important to come here. This is not a place to speak. So go to my office to discuss in detail, please ask inside!"
Zhao Chen nodded in agreement, following behind Hasegawa Yo, but his eyes looked around at the office of StudioDEEN.
StudioDEEN studio can occupy one floor of office building. It can be said that the scale of the animation studio is not small. Zhao Chen alone saw more than a dozen animation personnel of different ages busy everywhere. There are several ancient and clumsy huge machines around.
"Teacher Zhao Chen, please sit down!"
After entering the office, Hasegawa Yo hurriedly pointed to the seat opposite and said, looking extremely polite.
Zhao Chen nodded and sat down. At this moment, a woman in uniform entered the office, placed two cups of steaming tea in front of the two of them, and then took her to the door and left the office.
Zhao Chen smelled the tea fragrance and did not express any opinions. Instead, he chatted with Hasegawa Yo in front of him, chatting about various topics everywhere. Let’s observe the Chairman of StudioDEEN to implement the subsequent plan.
"To be honest, when I received a call from the Tianxia Society yesterday, I was extremely excited when I heard that Teacher Zhao Chen was coming here!"
"Chairman Hasegawa, you are so polite. To be honest, I also heard of your daimyo before coming. You personally convinced Teacher Fujiko to hand over the copyright of the animation "Doraemon" to your studio. This is really a big deal!"
"Teacher Zhao Chen, I'm not afraid of you making jokes. In fact, the reason why I was able to obtain the animation copyright of "Doraemon" was mainly because there was a deep friendship between me and Teacher Fujiko. Otherwise, how could you think Teacher Fujiko would hand over "Doraemon" to our studio!"
Hasegawa Yo shook his head and said this with a wry smile on his face. As he said, Fujiko?F? Fujimaru could have handed over "Doraemon" to those large animation clubs for production, so why bother to StudioDEEN Studio, which is affiliated with Hitsuki Animation. Are you not afraid that StudioDEEN Studio will mess up the classic "Doraemon"?
"So that's it, but Teacher Fujiko's ability to hand over "Doraemon" to your studio is also a sign that StudioDEEN Studio already has the ability and technology to produce independently, which is also the purpose of my visit today."
When Hasegawa Yoshi heard Zhao Chen say this, he felt itchy and subconsciously said:
"Oh, is Teacher Zhao Chen coming to me this time to sell the copyright of animation? Is it the comic "Rebellious Lelouch" that won the Nebula Award? If not, "Football Young Player", "Sailor Moon" and "The Three Sisters of Cat Eye" are also OK!"
"Chairman Hasegawa was joking. I did not come to sell animation copyrights this time, but I took a fancy to your studio. I hope to invest in a full acquisition!"
When Zhao Chen shook his head and explained, Hasegawa Yo seemed to hear something incredible, staring at Zhao Chen blankly, with a look of loss and excitement on his face, but unfortunately and hopeful, I don’t know what he was thinking.
After half a day of service, Hasegawa Yo's expression returned to its original state, but this time, his eyes at Zhao Chen changed to different from before.
"Then I'd better call you President Zhao Chen. I never expected that President Zhao Chen would like to see me, a small animation studio. I don't know if it's my honor. However, President Zhao Chen must also know that StudioDEEN is just an animation studio, but it is not much worse than those small animation clubs in terms of scale. Since it already owns the animation copyright of "Doraemon", let's not talk about other things. It's not low in value alone. I believe President Zhao Chen should understand what I mean!"
Zhao Chen smiled loudly. Hasegawa Yo's words were very simple and easy to understand, and they were nothing more than money. If you didn't even have money, you might not even need to talk later.
"Chairman Hasegawa, I understand what you mean. I don't know what this number is like?"
Hasegawa Yo looked at Zhao Chen raising two fingers, and the expression on his face couldn't help but sink.
"President Zhao Chen, your price is simply an insult to StudioDEEN Studio. I can't sell it for 20 million yen! The value of StudioDEEN machines alone is far more than this number, not to mention anything else."
It’s no wonder that Hasegawa Yoshi thinks so. Tianxiashe has grown so fast in the past few months, so he can see it. However, recently he has successively acquired large toy factories and clothing factories. According to Hasegawa Yoshi’s understanding, Tianxiashe can’t afford much money now.
"You are wrong. I'm talking about 200 million yen! Used to acquire the entire StudioDEEN studio!"
Zhao Chen shook his head and said a price that made Hasegawa Yo fall into deep thought.
Hasegawa Yo didn't expect that he would guess wrong, and his face couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but he had been the chairman for several years, so he naturally had a good face, but instead quickly fell into deep thought.
Two hundred million yen is indeed a lot for him, but as the chairman of StudioDEEN, he is naturally quite clear about the situation in his studio. The most important thing is not those machines, but several technologies and experienced animation talents developed by StudioDEEN, which are difficult to measure.
At the same time, Hasegawa Yo was a little confused. He knew that the world club is making money every day, but the speed of making money is still far less than that of those comic giants. Where did he get so much money? Didn’t he just acquire a large toy factory and clothing factory some time ago? Didn’t he get a loan from the bank?
"President Zhao Chen, you should have borrowed 200 million yen from a bank, right? But I'm afraid that if StudioDEEN is really acquired because of this, it will also bear a considerable risk. I think President Zhao Chen should understand it in his heart!"
Zhao Chen showed such an expression. There were quite a few people who knew the funds in his hand, and no one knew them in the island country. It was understandable that Hasegawa Yoshi thought so. As for the risk he mentioned, it was nothing more than StudioDEEN, after all, was a studio he worked hard to build. He did not want to take the risk of bankruptcy, but he was rejecting Zhao Chen's proposal in his words.
"Chairman Hasegawa, you misunderstood that this money was not borrowed from the bank with Tianxiashe. You should also know that I am from Hong Kong, and this money was just earned from there some time ago, so you don't need to worry about the origin of this money!"
"Although I have never been to that financial metropolis in this age, I also know that its prosperity is not worse than that in Tokyo. Since President Zhao Chen can make so much money in Xiangjiang, I believe he has developed quite well in Xiangjiang!"
Zhao Chen did not lie about Hasegawa Yo's indirect attacks, but explained some of his own situations and briefly explained his situation abroad.
Zhao Chen's development speed was significantly beyond Hasegawa Yoo's expectations. He never expected that Zhao Chen's power had developed to that point. Not only Xiangjiang, but also Nanyang and Takashima had his comic branches. If it were coupled with the World Club, which has rapidly expanded in the island country in recent years, it would be terrible to think about it. This also made Hasegawa Yoo roughly understand the strength and potential of Zhao Chen. What's more, Zhao Chen had 200 million yen as soon as he spoke, and this price was really not low. At least Hasegawa Yoo was a little moved, but at this moment he was a little stunned, but he was in a battle between heaven and man, and he didn't say anything for a while.
