"Keiko, your idea is very correct. So, I have recently considered going to Hong Kong Island for an inspection.
Most of the money, including the money in my account, was transferred to HSBC Bank in Hong Kong Island.
Perhaps, this time when I go to Hong Kong Island, there will be even greater opportunities..."
Lin Huowang had nothing to hide from Kobayashi Keiko.
After all, the Lin family knew all his assets very well.
"Okay! No problem, Lin Huowang-kun. According to your request, HSBC Bank in Hong Kong has transferred about 20 million US dollars in advance.
This is an account opened with your Japanese identity, Kobayashi Tenmo. We have also set up a financial management company in Hong Kong to serve you."
Keiko Kobayashi added, "Regarding the capital investment of the real estate company that cooperates with our Lin family, my father said that the initial investment does not need to be paid in full.
Since there was no money to purchase land, the first land to be developed was three plots of land from "Tomorrow Comics Weekly".
Therefore, you can use these 20 million US dollars freely in Hong Kong Island.
The five million US dollars left in Japan is enough for the initial operation of the real estate company and the magazine.
As for the later stage, I am confident that as long as our "Dragon Jump" comic magazine is launched, it will be a legend of wealth creation..."
"Of course, Dragon Jump has unlimited potential. Keiko, I believe you will soon become the recognized queen of comics in Japan."
With Keiko Kobayashi as his housekeeper, Lin Huowang feels quite relieved and worry-free.
“The problems in the early stage have been basically solved, and all the staff of Tomorrow Comics Weekly have resigned at the lowest cost.
Recently, I recruited a group of comic market operators from the recruitment market and are ready to work.
The first issue of "Dragon JUMP" has been delivered to the printing factory, and preliminary communication has also been carried out with major comic sales channels.
Although our "Dragon JUMP" is completely unknown, the sales rebate we offered for the first issue is 20 points higher than that of other comic weeklies. I believe that in order to gain higher profits, they will place our magazine in a prominent position.
At the same time, we also started preliminary consultations with Tokyo TV.
They were very interested in the animation adapted from the "Pokemon" comics that we provided.
After watching the sample, the director of Tokyo TV even came forward and expressed his willingness to pay for twenty episodes at once and broadcast them during prime time.
The purchase price was too low. Also, they asked for an exclusive agreement..."
The above report is about the progress that Keiko Kobayashi has made in comic magazines in recent days after acquiring "Tomorrow Manga Weekly".
Lin Huowang was quite unexpected. Even Tokyo TV station's Keiko Kobayashi had already negotiated and introduced him, which can be said to be quite difficult.
After all, in today's Japan, television stations are definitely very high-end units and industries.
Television programs are expensive to produce, and television commercials are also very expensive.
Being able to broadcast the "Pokemon" animation during prime time on Tokyo TV will undoubtedly have a huge advertising effect for "Dragon Jump".
But the timing must be good.
Lin Huowang pondered for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter if the price is a little lower. After all, we don't have any reputation yet. People are willing to buy and play it, which means they recognize our quality.
However, exclusive contracts are not permitted.
Once we sign the contract, we become passive.
How about this! You just tell TV Tokyo that we will give away the first ten episodes for free, and they don’t have to pay a penny.
However, the subsequent price will depend on the ratings and the contract will be revamped.
And they must also promise us that the time and frequency of the animation broadcast must be coordinated with our comic magazine.
At the same time, at the end of the cartoon, play an advertisement for Dragon Jump..."
These clichés used in TV commercials such as Lin Huowang and others, which were summarized by later generations, are quite novel nowadays.
For example, the very famous "Blue Cat's Three Thousand Questions" was said to be given away for free to TV stations across the country for free broadcast.
They don't even bother to pay the cost of purchasing copyrights for TV stations to broadcast, but instead start marketing and making money crazily on various IP derivative products.
After it was broadcast on TV, "Blue Cat's Three Thousand Questions" became extremely famous.
Almost every child in China at that time had seen this animation and was deeply impressed.
Including parents, everyone thinks that this animation is very friendly to children. It is interesting and can help them learn relevant scientific and cultural knowledge.
so……
After that, whether it was school bags, stationery or toys, products related to "Blue Cat's Three Thousand Questions" were all selling very well.
The money earned from these derivative products is much higher than the licensing fees for the animation.
The only pity is that it was later said to be maliciously reported by a competitor, causing the once popular "Blue Cat's Three Thousand Questions" to disappear completely across the country in an instant.
After hearing about Lin Huowang's intention of "giving away ten episodes for free", Kobayashi Keiko's eyes also brightened.
Why didn't she think of it?
Why do we have to worry about the price that the TV station pays for the animation?
This is different from ordinary commodities and is not a one-time deal at all.
As long as you have confidence in your animation, let the TV station broadcast it for free first. If the audience watches the first ten episodes, likes it and becomes obsessed with it, why would you still be worried that the TV station won't purchase the broadcasting rights later?
