Before the matter between Kang Jianfei and He Chaoqiong was settled, Shangguan Xiaowei, who went to Shanghai Meiying Studio to recruit people, had already returned, and he brought several animation talents with him.
In order to show that he attached great importance to animation, Kang Jianfei dedicated half a day to treat these people to a feast in a restaurant.
Shangguan Xiaowei brought a total of six people, the oldest of whom was only 42 years old. The older gentleman was still very patriotic and could not be bought with capitalist money.
"Mr. Kang, let me introduce you," Shangguan Xiaowei pointed to the eldest person and said, "This is Mr. Jiang Minquan, the proud disciple of animation master Ada, and the technical backbone of Shanghai Meiying Studio."
Kang Jianfei didn't know who Ada was. He just looked like he had admired his name for a long time, shook hands with Jiang Minquan with a smile and said: "It's a pleasure to meet you. I will rely on Mr. Jiang a lot in the future."
Jiang Minquan wore small glasses and a baggy suit, and said rather restrainedly: "Hello, Mr. Kang, I really like watching your movies."
Shangguan Xiaowei introduced the remaining five people, and after everyone got to know each other, Kang Jianfei said: "Please take a seat first. You are all guests from afar. Today's task is to eat and drink well."
Nowadays, workers in mainland China are still relatively simple, not to mention the technical talents who make animations. With a table full of delicious food, and after Kang Jianfei's cheating, they quickly regarded Kang Jianfei as a good person, and everyone knew everything.
Please explain clearly the situation of Shanghai Meiying Studio.
"Well, in the past, our Meiying Studio only produced short films and theater animations. Now the leaders above have said that they need to adapt to the market and are moving closer to TV cartoons." Jiang Minquan sighed and said, "Director Hu is now planning to make a cartoon.
It's called "Calabash Baby" and it only took four months to complete two episodes. At this rate, it will be next year after completing 12 episodes. However, after two years of production, the cartoon can be sold to CCTV for a maximum of 200,000 yuan, even the cost is collected.
not coming back."
Kang Jianfei asked with a smile: "Didn't you say that Meiying Factory is doing OEM work for Japanese and American companies?"
Jiang Minquan smiled bitterly and said: "It's okay to directly do OEM work for foreign companies. The problem is that many of the OEM orders for American Film Factory are outsourced to companies in Hong Kong from Japan and the United States. Hong Kong companies then outsource to us for OEM work."
"Is there any animation outsourcing company in Hong Kong?" Kang Jianfei looked at Shangguan Xiaowei in surprise.
Shangguan Xiaowei nodded and said: "There are many such companies, but basically they are taken over by comic companies. For example, Huang Yulang's Yulang International takes over Disney's business, which is the lowest level of copying work."
Yes, this is the so-called animated migrant worker.
In fact, the basic work for many famous cartoons in Japan and the United States is done in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and only a few are produced by Shanghai Meiying Film Factory.
After finishing the meal, Kang Jianfei asked six workers from the Meiying Factory to choose dormitories, and then called Shangguan Xiaowei to his office.
"Lao Qi, I have handed over this comic to Dark Horse Comics for creation, and it will be serialized on "King of Painting" soon." Kang Jianfei threw the character settings of a comic to Shangguan Xiaowei, "This "Crayon Shin-chan"
"It should sell well. You can give it to Jiang Minquan and the others to make it into an animation. I hope it will be broadcast on Phoenix TV in the second half of the year."
"Crayon Shin-chan?" Shangguan Xiaowei opened the character settings and saw that the images and styles of the characters above were completely different from the popular comics in Hong Kong. They seemed to be drawn by children in kindergarten.
The author of "Crayon Shin-chan" has just made his debut this year. He is still a young and tender newcomer, so Kang Jianfei has no worries about plagiarism.
Of course, the place where the story takes place has changed to Hong Kong, and the protagonist Nohara Shinnosuke has also become Teng Xiaoxin. His father is named Teng Guangzhi, and his mother is named Teng Li Meiya.

…
It was the beginning of another week, and the high school entrance examination was getting closer. Although Zhou Huimin had determined that she would not continue to study in college, she was still infected by the tense study atmosphere and became more and more anxious.
On the bus heading to school, Zhou Huimin was dozing off with her eyes closed. She was suddenly awakened by the shout of a boy not far away: "Where is "The Misty Journey"? Why is there no "The Misty Journey" in this issue of "King of Painting"?
!”
Zhou Huimin rubbed her eyes and turned to look at the source of the sound, only to see a boy from the next class holding "The King of Painting" and complaining.
The classmate next to the boy said: ""The Misty Journey" will be published bi-weekly separately. Have you not seen the small print advertisement of "The King of Painting" these days?"
"It's okay, who's going to read the ad?"
"By the way, after "The Misty Journey" was withdrawn, what new comics will be published?"
"What's it called "Crayon Shin-chan"? You can tell at a glance that it's for elementary school students. It's so childish."
"let me see."
Zhou Huimin continued to rest with her eyes closed. Within a few minutes, she heard someone laughing: "Haha, this "Crayon Shin-chan" amused me to death."
"Do you also read such childish cartoons?"
"Do you understand this is called childlike innocence? If you don't believe me, just take a look, it's super funny."
"I'm not as naive as you."
"You'll know it when you see it."
After a few minutes, the boy who originally said he wouldn't watch "Crayon Shin-chan" suddenly started laughing too.
Zhou Huimin looked over there curiously, wanting to know what kind of comics could make two boys laugh like that, but she was too embarrassed to ask out loud.
However, her curiosity was quickly satisfied. When Zhou Huimin came to the classroom, her best friend Yaqin immediately shouted: "Huimin, come over and read this comic."
"What comics?" Zhou Huimin put down her schoolbag and asked.
"Crayon Shin-chan!" Yaqin said and gave her the comic strip.
When Zhou Huimin opened it, she was immediately attracted by the childish crayon style, and as she read through the cartoons, she couldn't help but smile.
…
Mom: "Xiaoxin, come here for a moment."
Xiaoxin: "What?"
Mom: "Help me buy something."
Xiaoxin: "You won't go by yourself, wife."
My mother was furious: "How many times have I told you that you are not allowed to speak like your father."
Xiaoxin: "Okay, Meiya."
Mom blackened: "Don't call me by my name directly!"
…
Xiaoxin: "Hello!"
Fishmonger: "Shopping for mom?"
Xiaoxin: "I want to buy minced pork."
Fishmonger: "We don't sell pork here."
Xiaoxin: "Then I'll buy white radish."
Fishmonger: "We don't have daikon here either."
Xiaoxin: "Then I'll buy soy sauce."
The fishmonger burst into tears: "There's no soy sauce either."
Xiaoxin: "How dare you open a store if you don't have anything."
Fishmonger: "Stop farting, I'm selling fish here!"
…
After Zhou Huimin finished reading a story, Yaqin came over and asked, "How is it? Is it good?"
Zhou Huimin pointed at Xiaoxin and said: "This kid's eyebrows are so cute."
"Yeah, I've never seen such a funny comic before," Yaqin said, "This comic is the same as "Pink Girl" and was planned by Boss Fei. It's much better than those comics that only focus on fighting and killing.
"
"Really?" Zhou Huimin turned over and looked at the author column. Sure enough, she saw that it was Kang Jianfei who planned it, and an unknown person was writing the book. She sighed, "There are so many stories in his mind."
"Yes, otherwise how could you become a rich man just by relying on your brains?" Yaqin said with a proud smile, as if Kang Jianfei was someone like her.
Zhou Huimin continued to read the comics, but she heard Yaqin ask: "Huimin, are you going to participate in a singing competition or a beauty pageant?"
Zhou Huimin thought for a while and said: "I think we should wait until after graduation. There is only one month left in my life to study. There are singing and beauty pageants every year."
"What happens every year? You have to be famous early!" Yaqin took out an application form for the Miss Oriental Beauty Contest, "I received this yesterday afternoon. Let's go to the beauty pageant together so we can have a companion."
Zhou Huimin really had no confidence in her appearance. She adjusted her glasses and said, "I think it's better to forget it. What if I can't even pass the re-examination after signing up. It would be so embarrassing if people find out."
"What are you afraid of? How will you know if you don't try it?" Yaqin continued to encourage, "Just think of it as accompanying me. It would be so lonely for me to participate in the beauty pageant alone."
Zhou Huimin really couldn't shirk it, and she seemed to still have a little bit of expectation in her heart, so she reluctantly said: "Okay then." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation at Qidian (),
