"Mr. Liu, we don't have any problems here. When the company was first established, some people came to collect protection fees, but then the Huo family and the Sun family came forward, and they no longer dared to do so!"
When Liu Lang asked if the company had any problems, Shao Ming immediately answered.
The Huo family is the richest man in Hong Kong Island. They have close friendship with some gangsters. In addition, the Sun family is very famous in the legal circles of Hong Kong Island. The head of the Sun family is still one of the drafters of the "Basic Law". This status makes those who
The gangsters are terrified, but the most important thing is that the market of Hong Kong Island's comic industry
The market is so big. The Transformers comic series can reach 500,000 copies a year here, which is considered the limit. The revenue it brings is only 5 to 6 million Hong Kong dollars, which is naturally incomparable with the film and television industry, so this will not cause any problems.
Those gangsters' excessive attention would not be enough if it were Ye Jinsheng. The cake is too big.
"Brother Lu, Brother Shao, this year the Transformers comic will naturally continue to work hard. Our goal is to cultivate a group of "die-hards" and make them become die-hard fans. In addition to Transformers, we will also launch a new comic
!”
"New comics?"
The two were immediately interested. Liu Lang's imagination was unparalleled. Did he come up with a new story?
"The new comic is called Slam Dunk. This is a summary of my story, and there are also images of the main characters!"
Liu Lang took out a pile of sketches from his wallet and spread them on the table, then briefly told the plot of the story.
The storyline of Slam Dunk is very simple. It is the story of a group of sixteen or seventeen-year-old high school boys fighting for basketball. It is much simpler than the storyline of Transformers. Liu Lang gave an overview in less than ten minutes.
"Boss, this story is great!"
Shao Ming said immediately.
"Yes...not bad!"
Lu Xiaoguang also nodded.
Even though they seemed very excited, Liu Lang could see that the two of them were not as interested in this story as Transformers. Perhaps in their eyes, this was just an ordinary story, but the boss's creativity was always right.
, they won't have any doubts
Liu Lang smiled. No one would have thought that this comic would be popular before it appeared. But in fact, this comic will be really popular. The reason is that the story is not just about the sport of basketball, but about the story.
The spirit embodied in it has resonated with countless young people.
Some of these children were "bad" teenagers who fought in the past; some were confused youths with no goals. Without basketball, they would just be a group of ordinary people. Even if they work as adults, they will not have a life.
Regardless of any ups and downs, this kind of life is actually the experience of most people.
But they fell in love with basketball, and it was this orange ball that set them on a passionate road, on which they had their own goals and another life.
Therefore, the real connotation of the comic Slam Dunk is the story of young people struggling for their ideals, and these ideals are not about saving mankind and the earth. Maybe you just need to work harder and struggle more to achieve small goals, or maybe
It won't change anything in your life, but this period of passionate passion will become the only experience worth remembering in your life, and that's enough.
Liu Lang believes that the appearance of this comic will be enough to change the lives of many Chinese people, make them fall in love with basketball, and make them fall in love with the passion brought by struggle. It will definitely have a positive effect on this changing country.
"This comic is an important work we have done this year, and this comic will be sold in the mainland, so the cost is much lower than Transformers. It can be made in black and white, so the workload of the two of you this year will be certain.
It will be greatly increased. If there are not enough staff, continue to recruit!”
Regardless of whether Lu Xiaoguang and Shao Ming understand it or not, they just need to complete the work according to Liu Lang's ideas.
"Don't worry, boss, we will definitely complete the task!"
The two of them answered loudly.
Soon at noon, Huo Yingnan came back again with his family. He booked a private room at the Peninsula Hotel and entertained Liu Lang and his family. It was not until about two o'clock in the afternoon that everyone finished the meal. Huo Yingnan originally wanted to invite them in the evening.
I went to visit the night market on Hong Kong Island, but Liu Lang politely declined. He was really tired and had to fly back to the capital at noon tomorrow.
Liu Lang had a good night's rest and didn't get up until around nine o'clock the next morning. The three Filipino maids prepared breakfast. After the meal, Huo Yingnan and his gang personally took Liu Lang to the airport until he boarded the plane.
Just left.
Liu Lang didn't like those complicated etiquette. The Huo family, Sun family and Lin family paid too much attention to him, which made him feel uncomfortable.
"Son, the Huo family, the Sun family and the Lin family are too polite to us. Next time you go to Hong Kong Island, tell them not to be like this. They won't feel comfortable eating! Also, is that house given to you? How much does it cost?
We can’t have it!”
Liu Donglai also felt that the other party was a bit too polite. Not only did he give away a house, but he also gave away three servants. Even though his son was great, he couldn't accept such a big gift in vain.
He didn't know that his son had earned 30 million US dollars for the Huo family, and this amount was nothing at all.
At first, Liu Lang made a fortune by taking advantage of the stock market crash and didn't say much to his parents. Even if he told them, they wouldn't understand. If Liu Lang's shares in Nike are included, his net worth is already close to 100 million U.S. dollars.
Even though Liu Donglai and his wife are now much more knowledgeable than before, they still cannot understand the concept of $100 million.
"Dad, don't worry, those things are what we deserve. That villa is nice. When winter comes, grandparents and grandparents can come here if they have nothing to do. They can avoid the cold weather. The temperature of Hong Kong Island in winter is just right!"
"Coming here in the winter? It's not good. It's better to live in the north. Neighbors live together. In winter, we can eat pork stewed with vermicelli and drink some white wine to keep ourselves warm. What's so good about this place? I see the Fire Family
I don’t even interact with my neighbors, the house is so big and deserted, I don’t even want to come here, let alone them!”
Liu Donglai shook his head after hearing this.
Indeed, every household in the north now lives in large courtyards. Although it is extremely cold in winter, it is lively and lively. This kind of atmosphere is not something that the rich who live in big houses can have.
"yes……!"
Liu Lang sighed in his heart, his father was indeed right, but twenty or thirty years later, all those large courtyards will be gone, and every household will live in spacious buildings. There will be floor heating in winter and air conditioning in summer. Life will be better than it is now.
How much, but the atmosphere between neighbors is gone. Not to mention that they often get together to drink and chat, and even the two families who live across the door may not know each other.
