Chapter 198, Section 197: A Bright Future
Ji Wanqiu went to take a shower, and Lin Gaoyuan lay alone on the bed thinking about what had just happened, feeling more and more upset.
After much thought, I feel that there is no solution to this problem.
A young couple deeply in love might be kissing and hugging, but if they're not careful, it could easily escalate into physical intimacy. If they're on the safe side, that's fine, but if not, they might as well become grandfathers in ten months.
Making Jiangxia act voluntarily? That sounds more plausible than a boar climbing a tree.
In the end, he was completely helpless. He suddenly had a strong urge to get them married as soon as possible. Only by making their relationship legal would he feel better.
A little while later, Ji Wanqiu took a shower and came back wearing a white silk nightgown. She spent some time drying her hair, then turned off the light and went to bed.
“Wanqiu, I’ve been thinking about this for a long time. Perhaps, it’s better to guide than to block,” Lin Gaoyuan suddenly said. “But let’s not rush this. Let’s take it slowly. Give me some time.”
“Hmm…we really need to think about this carefully,” Ji Wanqiu said.
She actually had a selfish thought in her heart. The more outstanding Jiang Xia was, the more satisfied she would be with this son-in-law. She hoped that Yan Wan could hold on to this opportunity and not let the duck in her mouth fly away.
"By the way, tomorrow you can show these design drawings to Ms. Li. If she approves, we can probably start production the day after tomorrow. We'll produce a sample first, and once it's confirmed to be correct, we'll start mass production," Lin Gaoyuan said.
"You've recruited people?" Ji Wanqiu was slightly surprised; that was quite fast.
"Well, a few of our former employees are willing to come back, and their salaries will remain unchanged for now. Two production lines are more than enough. If the market feedback is good, we'll consider adding another production line."
"good."
Lin Gaoyuan moved to the side and slowly embraced his wife's warm and delicate body. She had just taken a shower, and her body smelled so good and felt so smooth.
"What do you want to do?" Ji Wanqiu trembled slightly as she felt his restless hand.
"Haven't we been intimate in a long time? I want it." His hand slowly slid up.
"It's too late now."
"It's better to be late, when the daughters are asleep, so they won't hear if there's any noise."
She closed her eyes briefly, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, and said in a flippant tone, "As if you could last thirty minutes."
Ji Wanqiu slowly took off her ice silk nightgown, watching him smile with a charming and alluring air.
"I'll be up there today."
◇
The following days were relatively uneventful. First, Ji Wanqiu contacted the producers of Tom and Jerry, and the design drawings were unanimously approved.
That afternoon, the toy factory produced its first sample, a Talking Tom doll, which was given to Xiaoman as a gift. The little girl loved it.
Then the second run of Tom and Jerry ended smoothly, and the ratings on major TV stations remained high. It can be seen that as long as you understand children's preferences, you have grasped the secret to traffic.
So Jiang Xia decisively sold a third round. This time, his target was no longer limited to provincial TV stations, but to various prefecture-level cities, districts and counties. As long as they were interested and the price was not too outrageous, he would sell.
Furthermore, he also had Shen Ying contact the currently popular on-demand TV station, and the contract was immediately signed for five years. The price per episode increased from five thousand to one hundred thousand, which is equivalent to twenty thousand a year. It can be played at will, with no limit on the number of times. It seems that the on-demand TV station made money, but in fact, it was Jiang Xia who made money.
Because he knew very well that the on-demand service would be gradually taken down and banned in about 10 years. This was the information gap that the reborn had. In other words, only a fool wouldn't make money honestly.
Once these matters are settled, the account balance of Qitian Animation Company will easily exceed two million.
When Lin Yanwan shared the good news with Jiang Xia, she was still in disbelief, but looking at the five consecutive zeros in the text message on her phone, she realized it was all true.
Keep in mind that this is only a 12-episode season of animation with ridiculously low production costs, yet it has managed to generate such huge profits in a short period of time. However, Jiang Xia is well aware that although money has been made, the profits from the first season have been almost completely squeezed out.
In other words, aside from the profits from toy sales, he can only maintain the current popularity by continuing to produce a second or even a third season of the animation.
If this update speed continues for three to five years, the Tom and Jerry IP will have firmly established itself and can officially become a classic masterpiece. At that time, riding the wave of smartphones, they can sell the adaptation rights of mobile games of the same name and make a fortune.
In addition, clothing and stationery printed with Tom and Jerry can be arranged to start soon. School will start in a little over a month, and if the deal goes well, we can make another wave of money from elementary school students.
Imagine, everyone is wearing clothes printed with Tom and Jerry, carrying Tom and Jerry backpacks, with Tom and Jerry book covers, and even erasers shaped like Tom the cat. How can you not buy a set and play with it in front of your friends?
Oh, and those collectible cards, those little trinkets that cost a dollar each, you could also get your hands on some.
Some of the rare characters are made into SSRs, gold cards, and gold-plated trinkets. Collecting a complete set can earn you a prize. Kids will buy them like crazy. Not to mention, showing them off to other kids makes them feel so satisfied.
However, since it's rare, the probability of getting it is naturally very low, 1‰ isn't an exaggeration, right? In the end, if the probability isn't small, how can it live up to the word "rare"?
Of course, Jiang Xia can only leave these things to Shen Ying for now; he only needs to ensure the final review process is done.
After all, his main job is making animation. Whether the merchandise can make money depends on how popular the animation is. He knows what's important and what's not.
This busy period continued until early August. Seven episodes of the second season of Tom and Jerry were completed, and the voice acting for the eighth episode was in production. By late August, all 12 episodes of the animation would be completed as scheduled.
Meanwhile, thanks to the extensive publicity from the government and major TV stations, the father-in-law's toy factory was receiving an overwhelming number of orders every day. The two production lines were simply not enough, and even if they operated at full capacity, new orders would still be booked up for two months.
It can be said that Gaoyuan Toys made back all the money it had lost over the past six months in just about a month, and even made a profit.
After all, the national market share is too large, and it's an exclusive license. This is only because Lin Gaoyuan's factory is small and its production capacity can't keep up. If it were larger, the profits would increase several times over.
During this time, her mother-in-law and father-in-law were too busy to go home and cook, so they simply let their two daughters eat at Jiangxia's house. This made Xia Shanshan very happy. She was even willing to sleep there, let alone eat.
Anyway, there's still a study; we can convert it into a bedroom.
Unfortunately, the daughter-in-law was shy and refused no matter what she said.
