Chapter 259: Recruiting Troops (Asking for Subscription!)
As a fiction writer, Huang Ying does not have the habits of Gu Long and their group of treasure island people. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He doesn't like to go out to look for flowers and willows, and he doesn't like to drink and have fun.
What he likes most is to stay at home by himself, pondering some interesting stories, or with a group of friends, everyone has a deep discussion and extension of a story, this kind of conversation similar to idiom solitaire is very brain-burning, but it also makes the storyteller very satisfied.
Of course, Huang Ying will also get inspiration from the discussions with them, so as to join his own works, so he is often treated, everyone eats and drinks, and the atmosphere is very lively.
For this reason, his mother didn't talk less about him, but Huang Ying still didn't get rid of this habit.
Today, Yin Jun asked Huang Ying to come out, and he turned down a party with friends.
His friends are all white-collar workers in the company on weekdays, but they like to read novels and make up stories, so everyone can get together.
According to Huang Ying's retelling, their so-called storytelling is actually to discuss and process some things that happen in daily life, which does not have much practical significance.
After all, not everyone can write a well-structured novel and then write it well.
Huang Ying hasn't been very busy lately.
After he was busy with the crew of "Shen Shengyi" and how to shoot, he sorted out his experience and went to the crew of "The King of a Thousand Kings" to help, although he was very busy, he was very busy.
Recently, Yin Jun invited him over and asked him to revise the script of "Silkworm Transformation", and Huang Ying was even more energetic.
Yin Jun's request for Huang Ying is to change the plot as little as possible, after all, there are more than 50 episodes in the future, and if it is completely changed at once, it will affect the fluency of the script.
Huang Ying stayed up late for several days in a row, and finally wrote a very satisfactory bridge, and undertook the plot of Yun Feiyang's change to another look very cleverly, so that the plot trend of "Silkworm Transformation" was not affected much, and the audience did not feel very abrupt about it, which made Huang Ying feel very relieved.
Rewriting Yin Jun's script was originally a lot of pressure for him, but I don't know how, looking at the script of "Silkworm Transformation", Huang Ying felt as if he had seen it, and after Yin Jun's inspiration, he was very handy in revising it.
When he finally gave it to Yin Jun to finalize the draft, Yin Jun didn't change much, which made him even happier.
Huang Ying has always regarded Yin Jun as his idol.
Because his job is still a screenwriter, in the screenwriting industry, Yin Jun is the undisputed first, so that Yin Jun can guide himself, and Huang Ying is willing to do it without making money.
But Yin Jun did not treat Huang Ying badly, the 100,000 screenwriter fee given by Li, Yin Jun only kept 30,000, and the remaining 70,000 was given to Huang Ying.
It stands to reason that if you are looking for a gunner, or if you outsource, you can generally give 30%, even if you are kind, giving 50% is too conscientious, Yin Jun has never given 70,000 yuan like this.
Yin Jun actually didn't want to keep a penny, but he clearly realized that he should not be too full of things, even if he was helping others, so 100,000 yuan could not be given in full.
At today's dinner table, in addition to Huang Ying, there is also Huang Baiming.
After expanding and writing the script of "The Loser" in January, Huang Baiming got another 100,000 yuan, plus 100,000 yuan from "The Owl and Dumbo", and he suddenly had an income of 200,000 yuan.
This was earned in less than three months, which made him and his wife so excited that they almost yelled.
With this second tranche of 100,000 yuan in the account, Huang Baiming and his wife walked all over the large and small real estate in Xiangjiang during the Spring Festival, and finally bought a 500-square-foot house in Taikoo Shing, the best middle-class gathering place.
A total of 230,000 yuan, plus the previous savings, Huang Baiming paid it off in a lump sum.
Now that it is being renovated, it just so happens that Yin Jun has given him a vacation for a while, so he and his wife often go to watch.
After the second 80,000 yuan arrived, they were much more generous in terms of hardware configuration, and bought a lot of furniture and electrical appliances, which were to be opened for two or three months, and then they could live in it.
If you want to say that a person with a strong sense of ambition, even if he is resting, he is not energetic, Huang Baiming is such a person.
Especially after buying a new house and decorating it, he feels that he is more motivated and wants to make some achievements.
Now Huang Baiming, he hasn't thought about flying solo, he feels that he still needs to learn a lot, and Yin Jun's income here is so high, it is much better than doing it alone, he will at least wait until he has exercised well and earned more than he is now.
Just as he was thinking about it, Yin Jun called him over, and Huang Baiming couldn't help but feel refreshed.
When they arrived at the box of Xingji Tea Restaurant, Huang Baiming and Huang Ying met each other, the two of them are not acquainted, but they are both mixed in the screenwriter circle, and they have also eaten together, so they naturally know each other.
They also knew that the other party was helping Yin Jun do things, so they didn't need Yin Jun's introduction.
"Call you two today, I have something I want to entrust to you. After eating something for a while, Yin Jun said slowly.
"Jun Shao, what do you want us to do?" Huang Baiming swallowed the quicksand bag in his mouth and said.
"Yes, Jun Shao, what is our relationship? I must do what you asked me to do!" Huang Ying also said.
"Actually, it's very important to me. ā
Then, Yin Jun told him about his plan for comics, and then how Wei Xiaofan helped contact the elites of the Huhai Fine Arts Film Studio in the mainland, and rented an office building in Broadcasting Road...... Wait a minute.
The two of them were a little surprised.
You must know that Yin Jun has not been idle in the past few months.
On the one hand, it is the production of various scripts, and then there is the control of the crew of "The Star Knows My Heart", and then I went to the crew of "Shang.Hai.Tan" in Qiongkou City to deal with disputes, and there is the problem of rewriting the script of "Silkworm Transformation".
In ordinary eyes, this is already very busy, and there must be no other spirit to do other things.
But Yin Jun not only completed these things well, but also planned another big event, which was simply shocking.
Where did he get such a good spirit, where did he get so many story ideas?
But the facts are in front of them, and people are quietly preparing an industry that is not inferior to film and television.
The understanding and understanding of comics by the people of Xiangjiang is almost no less than that of the Japanese.
Because Xiangjiang has a foundation of comics.
From "Uncle Cai" and "Old Master" in the 60s, to "Dragon and Tiger Gate" and "Li Xiaolong" in the 70s, these are all comics that make Xiangjiang familiar.
Moreover, the people of Xiangjiang are still very familiar with Japanese comics.
Why?
Because they have known for a long time that comics can be adapted into TV series or even movies!
Also, the plot of the comic can also be used for plagiarism in TV series and movies...... Uh, in the works.
So in Xiangjiang, many of these screenwriters often go to read comics, and even ask someone to buy comic books from Japan to read them.
Who hasn't read a few of Japan's three major manga weeklies, "Weekly Shonen Jump", "Weekly Shonen Sunday", and "Weekly Shonen Magazine", and who doesn't know what their most popular stories are?
Because of this, everyone also knows what a huge industry the comics industry is, and what an industry with a large industrial chain.
Not to mention Japan, Xiangjiang's "Dragon and Tiger Gate" and "Li Xiaolong", and even the still popular "Old Master", don't they often sell some peripheral products, such as keychains, stickers, toys, etc.?
Japanese comic books are even more powerful, selling out serials and then selling single books, and you can also sell the rights to TV stations to make cartoons, and their copyright protection is very strict, so many peripheral products are also selling in full swing, so that authors, comic weeklies, publishing houses, toy peripherals, etc. make a lot of money.
Osamu Tezuka and Fujiko Fujio and a few of them, didn't they become billionaires through comics?
If Yin Jun wants to engage in this industry, and judging from his ambition to come up with 8 stories to serialize in one go, he definitely wants to rely on this to achieve a comic empire!
When it comes to storytelling ability, whether it is Huang Ying or Huang Baiming, they firmly believe that no one can tell better than Yin Jun, even Huang Yulang and Shangqi Xiaobao can't compare with Yin Jun.
The core of the comic is still the story, as long as the story is told well, it is half the success.
What's more, Yin Jun also invited the elites of Huhai Art Film Studio, those originators of Chinese comics and animation, who even Huang Baiming and Huang Ying have heard of their names, are now all in Huhai Art Film Studio, how can the elites trained by them be poor in painting and production?
Yin Jun's story and their painting work together, it can definitely be described as a "match made in heaven"!
In that case, what else is Yin Jun looking for them for?
Facing the inquiries of the two, Yin Jun smiled slightly, "My ability and energy are limited alone, and it is impossible for 8 stories to be written all the time." So I need the two of you, plus the team of writers you can help me find, to work together on the follow-up stories for these comic books. ā
"We write it ourselves?" Huang Baiming first appeared less confident.
"If it weren't for the kind of chapter-by-chapter short stories that I don't want to do, I would have written a fairly detailed outline of the plot, just like "The Owl and Dumbo" and "The Loser". Yin Jun said, "But the content in the middle needs your help to fill in." Without compromising the excitement of the story, of course, the longer the better. If you can make money, don't stop, let the comics be serialized for twenty or thirty years, which can be regarded as a great achievement!"
Hearing Yin Jun say this, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
So that there will be no problem.
As long as there is Yin Jun's story as the overall skeleton, then playing around this skeleton is exactly what the two of them are very good at.
As for talking about a comic book drawing for twenty or thirty years, the two of them think it's a little too incredible, even if it's a weekly magazine, but where are there so many stories to tell?
This is not to blame them, if they know that twenty or thirty years later, serialization for more than ten consecutive years has become the norm in the comic industry, they will certainly not be surprised.
Some things can't be fried, but other things that carry the memories of youth and dreams will make people feel that it's better to go on forever, don't stop!
"There are 8 comics in total, and I need a total of 8 teams. Yin Jun said: "The number of people should not be much at first, but try to use young people with full imagination." Brother Ming, Brother Ying, you all have a very good foundation in Wireless and Li, if you can find good talents from it, then bring them out as much as possible, in my place, it must be much more promising than their development in those two TV stations. ā
"This is natural. Huang Baiming said with a smile, "After hearing about my treatment here, many of my former colleagues, as well as a few of my apprentices, are clamoring to come over to you." ā
"Li's side is the same, they have been panicking recently, they are not at ease, and many people have asked me if Jiashi can let them do things. "Now that there are better options, I'm sure they'll make a wise decision." ā
Yin Jun nodded lightly, "In terms of treatment, you go and negotiate a basic salary that is 50% higher than the market price." Our comic studio doesn't rely on a basic salary to attract talent, but I still plan to reward the members of my group with 10% of the revenue earned from each comic, and the better the comic sales, the more money they can make. ā
"It's a good incentive. Huang Baiming hesitated for a moment and said, "But Jun Shao, will we implement an elimination system?"
"Of course, those who can go up, and those who don't qualify, but you can give them a little more time, let's limit it to one year for the time being. Yin Jun said, "Even if they are to be eliminated, try to arrange them to other jobs when the time comes." ā
"I understand. Huang Baiming said with a smile.
He thought that Yin Jun said that he was asking these people to do other chores, but in fact, Yin Jun was going to arrange them to be in his own other companies - they were all people who joined the same company together, but as a result, people were promoted and raised, but you went to sweep the floor and take out the garbage, which is not good, it is better to change the company and go to a new environment, and it will not be so uncomfortable.
"When recruiting them, I hope they know from the beginning that they will work with the elites of the mainland in the future. The talents in the mainland are not as good as the people of Xiangjiang because of some problems that do not belong to them, but their strength is very strong. Yin Jun added, "I don't want to see them look down on their colleagues in the mainland, or deliberately form gangs to isolate them." If something like this happens, no matter who the talent is, I'll let him go immediately. ā
"Okay, I'll warn them that everything is about work, and don't let them do petty. Huang Ying replied solemnly.
Huang Baiming naturally will not object.
The rumors about Yin Jun's kindness to mainlanders have been around for a long time, and this time the strict order of the crew of "Shanghai-Tan" in Qiongkou City, as well as the punishment and even dismissal of many people for this, spread in Xiangjiang.
Considering that Yin Juncai has not been swimming from the mainland for a long time, he has a deep affection for his hometown, which is also understandable.
Both of them are talented people, and they naturally understand that the talents who can be poached by Yin Jun at a great price in Xiangjiang must be the choice of the moment.
They don't have anything, it's all about fame and making money.
But young people don't necessarily think so, they will inexplicably feel that they have a sense of superiority, and then when their skills are not as good as others, it is easy to comfort themselves with this sense of superiority.
This happens to be what Yin Jun can't bear.
The two believe that even if there is a conflict and dispute between the two parties at work, Yin Jun will not feel anything.
But if there is a big conflict because of the region, then these people will be miserable.
Not only are they miserable, but Huang Baiming and Huang Ying, who recruited them, are also inseparable, and they are likely to be affected by the pond fish.
"There's one more thing I want to ask Junshao. Huang Baiming said, "The children's comic you said "Cherry Maruko", Miss Zeng, has spent more than half a year, but how should our team cooperate with her? A student like her, who draws in her spare time, will definitely not be able to draft. ā
"The manga won't go on sale until the end of the year, so I'll ask her before that. The screenwriters and artists of this group can help in other groups first, and then take over when she is exhausted. Yin Jun replied.
Huang Baiming and Huang Ying both glanced at each other.
It seems that Yin Jun really loves that little sister, at least seven or eight people are waiting for her to have no time to draw before taking over, what a waste of manpower and financial resources.
The two of them really guessed right.
In Yin Jun's heart, Zeng Huanqian is definitely more important than a comic book, even if this comic book is a Japanese palace-level super manga - "Cherry Maruko".
After thinking about it, Yin Jun still named the book "Cherry Balls".
In fact, the name of this book is translated as "Cute Little Maruko", not "Cherry Maruko", but the author's surname is "Sakura", and the translated version on the treasure island becomes "Cherry Maruko", so the thought is very smooth, and it has become a deep-rooted name for children in the mainland.
In order to commemorate this classic comic book title in his previous life, Yin Jun named Maruko's surname "Cherry", setting it to be a rare surname in ancient times, and then the nickname was Maruko.
Of course, "Cherry Maruko" is a story that takes place on Treasure Island, not Japan, and all the characters are not Japanese names.
Why does it have to be on Treasure Island?
It's very simple, there are so many Japanese-style scenes in it, such as hot springs, street construction, customs, etc., in addition to the closest to Treasure Island and Japan, where else can Yin Jun choose?
It's better to set the story on Takarashima than in Japan, right?) )
