Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

So he immediately chose a remedy, and the method was very simple, which was to contact some colleagues and some shop owners he knew, and ask them to transfer some goods.

But after he called, the answers he got were all very consistent.

Sorry, that's not possible because others are also out of stock.

I don't know what happened this month, but "Heye Comics" seemed to have emerged as a big hit and was well received by the market. Then, some of them did not tear up the contracts. They did not have enough goods and had to place additional orders from Heye Comics Society.

Then there are some people who, like him, have also chosen to tear up the contract. Now the situation is more urgent than his. They can only watch the money slip away from them, and they have no way to do anything, because Heye is not just talking, they have really blocked them! !
Old Charles was completely paralyzed by this, and could only go back dejectedly to announce the news to his customers.

"Well, we have a problem with the stocking, but you can also consider other things, such as DT Comics. Um, Hopman, haven't you always liked DT Comics? You said that you are a loyal fan of Motorcycle Man and you never miss a single issue! Why don't you buy it this time?"

However, one of the black youths curled his lips in disdain: "Damn! Bro! Motorcycle Man is shit! Have you ever seen Transformers?"

As he was talking, the black youth began to look impatient: "Shit! Since you don't have Heye Comics, there's no need for us to waste our time. M3, I'm leaving. I'll go to another store now and I think I can still buy it. Otherwise, I'll have to pay a high price for something that others have read."

Having said that, the black youth walked away without looking back.

Is it the end now that an old customer has left?

No, what happened next was a scene that made old Charles despair. One after another, his old customers who used to come to his shop to consume regularly left without looking back.

Similar situations are happening in countless comic shops, bookstores, and newsstands throughout Luoshengdu.

The name of "Heye Mankan" has become the main theme today.

This also attracted some people who didn't know about "Heye Comics" and "Transformers" and made them learn more about them.

This made the names of Heye Comics and the work "Transformers" spread more widely.

But it is only limited to Luosheng City.

But it is obvious that the printing volume of 10 copies set by Xia Yuan in the early stage is definitely not enough.

When Xia Yuan received the news, it was an urgent report from his assistant.

"Director Xia, we don't have enough comics. The dealers and salesmen below reported that the quantity is seriously insufficient. The market below needs to replenish the stock. The pressure is very great. The inventory has reached the bottom."

"Isn't that enough?" Xia Yuan was stunned.

So fast?
This was something he didn't expect.

Originally, he was thinking that if he wanted to quickly distribute 10 copies of each issue, he would have to plan for some time. He would have to do more activities if he wanted to sell the copies quickly.

Then, once the book becomes more well-known, its market share will gradually increase, and then more copies can be printed.

But he didn't expect that this was only the second episode and his popularity had already been initially boosted?
Xia Yuan thought about it.

It seems that he still underestimated the staying power of the "Transformers" story.

As expected, it was a work that he was optimistic about and thought was good.

"Then let's print another 10 copies." Xia Yuan said decisively.

However, the assistant was a little hesitant.

Xia Yuan asked, "What's wrong?"

"Director Xia, 10 copies may not be enough." The assistant said with some difficulty.

"So what's the gap now?" Xia Yuan asked, a little surprised.

Two hundred thousand is not enough?

"50!" the assistant said, "At least 50!" "Then let's make it 70, leaving a margin of 20 to deal with any possible situation."

Xia Yuan made a decision.

"Ok!"

The assistant received the order and stepped back to prepare to leave.

Only Xia Yuan was left standing there thinking.

Now the comics club’s preliminary plan has been completely finalized, and the situation is gradually stabilizing.

Now it's probably time to take the second step.

You know, for those who want to enter the field of superheroes, starting their own comics company is only the first step in their strategic plan.

Ultimately, the most important thing in this field is to present the works in the form of IP and commercialization.

Therefore, film and television adaptation is definitely necessary, based on the readership of physical comics, and the collision effect created by the audience of film and television dramas.

Therefore, after "Transformers" gained some popularity and had a basic audience, it was time to start the strategy of film and television adaptation.

In other words, now is the time to make a movie!

"That's it, just go ahead and shoot Transformers!"

After Xia Yuan made up his mind, he quickly passed the message down.

Heye Film and Television officially started the filming of its next movie.

But this shoot is a little special compared to the previous ones.

Because most of the works Xia Yuan had shot before were, to put it bluntly, small-scale productions.

Even if there is a big production, it is just a serious drama.

There are very few movies like this that involve large-scale special effects and cutting-edge technology.

This was already considered a truly big production. Even for Xia Yuan, it was the first time for a young lady to ride in a bridal sedan.

This kind of movie involves high special effects, or even more than special effects, and also needs to consider more costs of visual presentation and communication. It is not so easy to shoot. It is not that after you decide on the actors and the set, you can set up the camera and let the actors perform in front of the camera and start shooting directly.

First of all, there is a lot of planning work.

As for the actors, it is easy to solve. The cast of "Transformers" can be handled internally. As for the leading role, the protagonist Sam can be played by Chu Zhongtian.

Then Edward Chris can also play the role of William, which is very suitable.

Then we can find some other actors, and we can even consider inviting big-name movie stars to join in. After all, it is a big production, so we can be more relaxed and willing to spend money to ultimately decide the presentation effect.

This is what Xia Yuan has always believed. Influenced by his senior schoolmate in her early years, he deeply knows that if you want to make a good movie, you must not be afraid of spending money.

He has been doing this for many years.

Although it was later proved that the senior student said this to him just to lose more money, it is really useful to say it or not.

So it is easy to get actors, and at this point, the siege of them by headhunting companies no longer exists.

But the problem is that this movie doesn't just need decent actors.
Because many important characters are not even human. (End of this chapter)
