In fact, this company was created by Zhou Qing, some classmates, and some professional enthusiasts.
They all believed that Chinese comics would eventually take off one day, so everyone did this voluntarily. Even though they complained a little, they never thought of giving up.
It's just that Zhou Qing feels that as the host of this company, he often puts some pressure on himself and has an inexplicable sense of responsibility.
Seeing those people working around the clock to create while his own investment failed again, he felt sorry for these people.
After hanging up the phone, Xiaohu soon sent him a phone number, and Zhou Qingcuo made the call before making the call.
After the call was connected, he immediately introduced himself, "Hello sir, I'm Zhou Qing, the guy who got drunk in the bar yesterday."
"I'm really sorry. I was under a lot of pressure at the moment. I really lost my temper in the bar yesterday. I must have caused you a lot of trouble."
Li Yiyang smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. For men of this age, everyone has their own pressure in their hearts."
"But the things I heard you say yesterday were quite interesting. I didn't expect that you are an animation artist. It should be a lot of fun to make animations out of your own imaginary stories, right?"
Zhou Qing sighed, "This kind of beautiful imagination probably only existed in childhood. Now that I have established a company, I need to make a profit."
"It's because I haven't been able to get investment recently, so I'm feeling a little stressed. I drank too much yesterday and talked to you about it."
Zhou Qing hurriedly said: "I heard from my colleague just now that you paid for yesterday's drink. If it's convenient for you, we can meet up later and I'll return the money to you."
Li Yiyang gave him an address, and soon Zhou Qing arrived. As soon as he entered the coffee shop, he saw Li Yiyang waving to him not far away.
After walking over, Zhou Qing asked: "How much did you spend on drinks yesterday?
I'll give it to you now."
"Don't worry. In fact, you don't need to pay this money. I'm also very interested in animation. If it's convenient, can I visit your company?"
Zhou Qing didn't expect that he would make such a request and said, "Of course you can visit, but I'll give you the money for the wine!"
Even if his company is in trouble now, he still doesn't lack the money.
He and Li Yiyang didn't know each other in the first place. Yesterday, he pulled her and talked for so long. He already felt very sorry.
Now if this money is not given to Li Yiyang, he will feel that he owes too much.
Seeing that Zhou Qing was very insistent, Li Yiyang waved his hand, "Since you want to give it so much, then go ahead! This is the receipt for yesterday's consumption."
Looking at the four digits on the list, Zhou Qing's face turned red and he suddenly felt that he was short of money.
Li Yiyang said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not tricking you. Yesterday you drank too much and drank randomly, and there was nothing I could do to stop you."
Zhou Qing said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I don't seem to have enough money on me. Otherwise, go to my company first, and I will raise enough money for you later."
It was just a drink. Now he didn't even have enough money to pay for the drink, and he had to raise money from everywhere. Zhou Qing felt that he was a complete failure.
At this time, he even felt a little doubtful whether he still needed to persist.
Looking at his expression, Li Yiyang had already guessed what he was thinking, but he felt that this man also had a strong sense of self-esteem and did not mention anything that would prevent him from paying back the money.
Not long after, they arrived at Zhou Qing's company. Seeing that Zhou Qing had brought a stranger, the others were very excited and walked over quickly, thinking he was an investor.
Each of those people was very attentive, saying hello to Li Yiyang, and then some brought him tea and some brought him fruits.
Li Yiyang feels that although their company is not big, the working atmosphere is very good, everyone is relaxed, and they are not serious when working.
Some of the workstations have some fruits and snacks placed on them, and some even bring cats and dogs. But on the contrary, their company is not very messy and can be said to be very tidy relatively speaking.
Seeing those people's attentive looks, Zhou Qing wanted to say something, but he didn't have time to speak.
What's more, when he saw these people so happy, he felt embarrassed to open his mouth and shatter their hopes.
Li Yiyang said: "You must be very busy, go to work first, I will just go to the office to talk with Mr. Zhou."
After he finished speaking, those people dispersed, and Zhou Qing said sheepishly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Li."
"I guess they think of you as an investor, so they surround you and cause you trouble, right?"
Li Yiyang shook his head, "No, on the contrary, I think you are very suitable for me. Since they regard me as an investor, why can't I satisfy them?"
Zhou Qing was stunned for a moment, then realized after a moment, "You mean... you want to invest in us?"
"Why not?
Although I haven’t seen your work yet, from what you said to me yesterday, I am very satisfied with your concept.”
"I think people like you who don't forget your original intention will definitely be able to make good Chinese comics, but they just don't have the investment."
"So I hope to cooperate with you. As I said before, this is also something I like. Let's work together to carry it forward. Isn't this a good thing?"
Zhou Qing nodded repeatedly, "Of course! Then let's go into the office and talk!"
He was almost unsteady when he walked. No one knew how anxious Zhou Qing was to get new investment during this period.
He even felt that if there was no hope within this month, there would be no need for him to persist.
Before some things can see the light of day, people will always feel that continuing to persist is just a useless effort.
But Zhou Qing didn't expect that things would turn around and he would actually find an investor.
Seeing him and Li Yiyang entering the office and talking excitedly, the people outside couldn't hold themselves back.
"Is this our new investor?"
"He looks quite young, but he also looks very easy-going. He probably won't let us change the plot randomly like those people before."
"I can't say for sure, but I see that Brother Qing is so excited, so it seems that we are getting along well, right?"
Xiaohu on the other side had a slightly confused expression, "This morning, Brother Qing asked me for this person's mobile phone number. Why did he suddenly become an investor now?"
