Chapter 207 The East Wind Is Coming, and the Dawn Is Dawning
Wu Tao followed beside the girl with glasses, walking casually.
But all of this, in the eyes of the girl with eyes, feels like a big boss.
My only concern is that I am too young.
After thinking about it, maybe he was born with a baby face, but he just looks young?
The girl with glasses thought about it, but finally couldn't hold back her curiosity, and mustered up the courage to test: "Yuankang Company is very big, are you really the boss there?"
Wu Tao nodded, "What do you do in the comic club?"
"I'm an editor, and my name is Wen Hui."
"Oh, hello Wenhui, I'm Wu Tao."
"Hello, Mr. Wu!"
Wu Tao hummed, and the two arrived at the gate of the comic book club.
Compared with Yuankang Company, which is in full swing, the manga club is relatively deserted.
There are still some days before the release of the fourth issue of the magazine, and it is time to relax. What's more, there are not many people in the comic club.
The few employees who came earlier saw Wen Hui coming in and exchanged casual greetings before realizing that there was a young man behind her.
"Wenhui, who is this?"
Wen Hui glanced at Wu Tao, obviously asking for his opinion. Seeing Wu Tao secretly waving his hands in front of him, their eyes lit up slyly, "Oh, he is here to find someone."
Then he asked: "By the way, who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for Editor-in-Chief Wang."
Wen Hui pushed her glasses, glanced at the direction of the editor-in-chief's office and said, "The editor-in-chief is already here, let me lead you there."
Bypassing the office area full of desks, Wu Tao followed Wen Hui to the editor-in-chief's office.
Wen Hui knocked on the door, and Wang Yongsheng's deep voice came from inside.
Pushing the door open, Wen Hui recommended: "Editor Wang, President Wu from Yuankang Company is here to see you."
Wang Yongsheng put down the magazine, looked up to see Wu Tao, quickly took off his glasses, walked around the table to greet him, and said, "Boss, why are you here?"
Then he held Wu Tao's hands and said, "So, the company under your management with over 100 million assets is Yuankang?"
Wu Tao waved his hand and said, "I just participated in some shares."
Wen Hui, who didn't have time to go out, was shocked and stunned when she heard this.
The editor-in-chief also called him the boss, and she would never get it wrong. Now he directly admits that he is Yuan Kang's boss.
Oh my god, it's such a big breaking news.
When she left the editor-in-chief's office and returned to her desk, Wen Hui was still in shock.
At such a young age, he already owns two properties!
"Wenhui, Wenhui..."
An urgent voice in her ear woke her up and said, "Wenhui, I think the editor-in-chief is very enthusiastic about that kid. Who is he?"
Just as Wen Hui was about to open her mouth to answer, she suddenly remembered that Wu Tao was unwilling to reveal her identity just now, so she lied hesitantly, "I...I don't know either."
"Could it be some genius cartoonist?"
When the others heard it, they all thought it was reliable. Only Wen Hui disagreed or objected, and was suddenly speechless.
Editor-in-Chief Office.
"Old Wang, it's the first time I've come back to the comic club today. First of all, I want to congratulate you on your outstanding achievements!"
"Hey~" Wang Yongsheng waved his hand and said, "It's not my credit. The Star Soul you recommended has driven a lot of sales. In addition, the domestic comic industry is too short of magazines with soul and ideas. Baoku Manke It just happened to be the right time.”
The older generation likes to be modest and doesn't take credit easily.
Wu Tao didn't talk too much about this issue, and changed the subject: "Is there any clue about the nationwide release?"
Wang Yongsheng sighed, "This matter is not difficult to say, easy is not easy!"
"Oh, what do you say?"
"It's not difficult to get the national distribution rights, but how can you keep it for a long time. Otherwise, like a picture book king, it will be short-lived, and it will be useless when it arrives?"
"You're right!" Wu Tao nodded, "This is indeed a problem. I've thought about it, and there are about two ways."
"Oh? Have you figured this out? Come on, tell me, I've been worrying about this for a while!" Wang Yongsheng got excited when he heard this.
Wu Tao pointed his fingers and said: "First, find a way to let domestic comic stories go out, such as entering the Japanese market."
As soon as he said this, Wang Yongsheng couldn't help shaking his head, "How difficult is this? Our cartoonists all grew up watching Dongying comics, and there are inevitably imitations and references in their works. It is estimated that it will be very difficult to get Dongying. Sad draft!"
Although one was rejected, Wang Yongsheng did not give up, and immediately asked: "Then what about the second way?"
"The second way is to develop comics peripherals, hold comic exhibitions, strive to increase the influence of the magazine, and at the same time drive the surrounding economic benefits as much as possible, so that the government can see the positive effects of the magazine."
"This is a way!" Wang Yongsheng pondered: "It's the surrounding area. Given the current domestic environment, there may not be much profit to be made."
"Let's not talk about the benefits, let's survive first, even if we lose some profits from running the magazine." Wu Tao thought, "Besides, if we really find the selling point, it is not impossible to generate benefits. For example, I got a golden retriever last year. T-shirts, and calendars from years ago..."
"Oh ho, you made the golden retriever T-shirt?" Wang Yongsheng was also very surprised.
"That's right, that was my commercial attempt at cute culture."
"Cute culture..." Wang Yongsheng pondered and said, "I have a clue, so let's do this! If you don't dare to go into the water, how do you know the water is deep and the water is shallow?"
"Yes, that's the reason!"
The two hit it off.
At this moment, the phone on the table rang suddenly.
Wang Yongsheng got up and went to pick it up, his voice suddenly raised eight points, "Are you from the SUNDAY magazine?"
"What, I heard you right, do you want the distribution rights of Star Soul Comics in Japan?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Tao stood up abruptly and walked over.
What are you thinking, what are you coming to!
Seeing this, Wang Yongsheng put the phone on speakerphone and answered it with Wu Tao.
"Yes, after our preliminary review, Star Soul is a very good comic work, and I think Dongying teenagers will definitely like it."
"...So I hope that your company can contact the author, sign a contract with us, and authorize it to be published within the scope of Japan. Trouble!"
Wang Yongsheng glanced at Wu Tao and saw him nodding, so he responded, "We are happy to do this for you."
After a brief discussion and agreement, Wang Yongsheng hung up the phone, his old face blushing.
"Boss, you really hit the spot! After so many years, some domestic comics have finally come out!"
Wu Tao said with a smile, "As long as we run this magazine well, more and more good works will go abroad in the future!"
"...And if this work can become popular in Dongpu, with this shareholder wind, we will sell the comics to Dongpu at that time, then we will not have to worry about making money."
"That's right, SUNDAY's willingness to sign a contract came at the right time, and now I'm full of energy again!" Wang Yongsheng said heartily, "Finally, we see the dawn of the magazine's future! "
