Peninsula Entertainment Starts as a Writer

Since there was a meeting about a movie project later, Liu Chengcan made an appointment with Hu Lang to the cafe downstairs of the company.

Han Zidong followed Liu Chengcan downstairs in the elevator, and the two chatted while walking.

"I've long disliked this bitch. He doesn't even care if he looks down on us, Tumblbug. He even looks down on our entrepreneurial idol, the god of planning."

Han Zidong kindly gave me two middle fingers.

He was not as indignant as Liu Chengcan about Li Tailong's arrogance. At most, he wrote Li Tailong down in his little black book and took it out from time to time to draw two crosses.

However, he really didn't like Li Tailong very much. Even when he treated Jin Shicheng, a loser in the shopping mall, he still gave him basic courtesy.

On the other hand, Li Tailong's speech and behavior are indescribably arrogant, as if he really wants something from Li Tailong.

"Now I finally understand why the status of idols in your country is low."

Liu Chengcan was confused as to why the topic suddenly turned to idol status. He asked in confusion: "Why?"

"Because their working conditions are so unstable, even when they go to financial institutions to get loans, dogs ignore them."

After Han Zidong said that, he strode out of the elevator.

Liu Chengcan then followed up and hooked Han Zidong's shoulder: "Okay, you dog writers don't even use swear words when swearing. You can open a cram school in the future. I will kneel down and listen."

After a conversation with Li Tailong, Han Zidong realized more clearly that the seemingly rising popularity was actually rootless and should not be taken seriously.

Before he really made any achievements, he was just a "lucky guy with a flash of inspiration" as some anti-fans said, who happened to meet the three "silly monks" from Tumblbug.

In a booth in the cafe, Han Zidong met the comic book writer Hu Lang whose real name is Choi Jongho.

Hu Lang is the same age as Liu Chengcan, but his temper is very reserved and quiet. Rather than responding to his and Liu Chengcan's questions, he prefers to nod and acquiesce.

Wearing a sweatshirt suit, a black coat over his upper body, and a side-parted hairstyle, his face is pretty and harmless. This kind of person does not stand out at all in a crowd.

But no one would have thought that such a guy who looks at humans and animals as harmless would actually like to use dynamic effects in horror-themed comics, which scares some readers to avoid his works.

"It turns out that your main job is a game development engineer. No wonder your works incorporate many technical elements."

"I'm ashamed to say that many readers have criticized this, saying that the special effects of my work are greater than the plot."

Han Zidong paused. Those readers were right. Maybe it was due to professional habits. Hu Lang's works are indeed more showy than plot.

Due to technical reasons, most of his works can only be serialized online, and few of them can be published in physical books.

However, because of his ability to show off his skills, he often receives business cooperation.

For example, he produced a promotional comic of the same name for the movie "Invasion of the Ironworm" and "BioBattle Royale" for "Counter-Strike Online". The response to the works was good after they were released.

In terms of masterpieces, "Cape Boy" is one of them. This comic was later adapted into a film and television, which caused a certain degree of discussion.

"With the development of the times, technology can also show its artistic charm.

I am very interested in your exploration in the field of dynamic comics, and I want to fully support your exploration of dynamic comics. I just wonder if you are interested in joining us Lezhin ic?"

Hu Lang hesitated for a moment and looked at Han Zidong: "It's not about signing a contract, but joining?"

Han Zidong leaned forward with a smile on his face: "I know that a large number of webcomic authors still don't believe that they can support themselves with royalties alone. In order to relieve your worries, I can provide you with a job as a development engineer.

p>

Lezhin ic's job will remain valid until you make up your mind to switch to full-time employment."

Toro nodded convinced. He also wanted to devote himself wholeheartedly to the creation of web comics and compile wonderful comic plots. However, as an adult, the risk of doing so is too high.

"I would like to ask, do you think full-time web comic writers will really be able to gain a foothold in society in the future?"

"If it is a young person who has just stepped out of society, I will definitely advise him to settle down for a few more years, but if he is a comic writer who has already formed his own style, Lezhin ic will actively seek the welfare of all capable comic writers.

It’s hard to say anything else, but I strive to enable everyone to get a loan from the bank as a comic book writer in the future.”

Liu Chengcan smiled narrowly, knowing that Han Zidong held grudges very much, and Li Tailong would have more fun in the future.

Tororo lowered his head and thought for a few seconds, then raised his head and slowly replied: "I may need to think about it for a few days."

"Of course, we Lezhin ic are waiting for good news."

"I have another question... Since you have raised nearly 600 million in cash using the Xingyou project, why do you still risk failure to build your own webtoon website?"

Looking at the two audience members with glaring eyes, Han Zidong crossed his arms and meditated quietly for a few seconds.

He looked at Tororo and said: "Naver, Daum, and Nate portals provided platforms in the early stages of webcomic development and created a large number of webcomic writers such as Jiang Cao.

However, with the development of the times, they have forgotten their original intentions and only serve their own interests, regardless of the life or death of the webcomic author. And I happen to have a little bit of luck, and I also want to try my luck.

Being young is not just about hard work. As long as you have worked hard, no matter whether you succeed or fail, this experience will become a topic of conversation in the future. I don’t want to talk about the past in the future and I can only mention, 'I just worked hard at that time.'"
"I also know a group of writers who specialize in horror and suspense comics. I don't know..."

"Of course."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Han Zidong smiled. He wanted to sign a contract with Yin Taihao and Hu Lang not only because of their accomplishments in comics, but also because they each have a number of writer friends behind them.

Because of his technical reputation, Tororo often gives advice to other comic writers with the same theme on the Internet, so he has gathered many thriller and horror-themed comic writers around him.

Behind Yin Taihao is Nulook Media, which is a professional web comic content manager. It can be roughly understood as an agency that specializes in serving comic writers. It has many veteran web comic writers.

"It's just that the specific signing standards may vary from person to person, but we at Lezhin ic will also launch an additional voluntary student system.

Even if the potential of the work has not yet been revealed, as long as the basic conditions are met and the updates are completed as agreed, he will still receive a certain amount of full attendance bonus."

For the current Lezhin ic, signing masterpieces is very important, but filling up the library is also very important. As long as the basic conditions are met and some blood is paid appropriately, it is like buying horse bones for one gold.

……

In the Tumblbug conference room, Shen Dacheng gave a report on the progress of the film project.

Although three or four films have successfully passed the platform's preliminary review, there are still disputes between the producers and the platform in several aspects such as the project's feedback method, the amount of a single crowdfunding, and the subsequent financial supervision system.

Movie projects are different from ordinary art projects. The crowdfunding funds for a single project are too high. The crowdfunding of "Another Promise" is less than 1 billion, and the crowdfunding of "Ghost Country" is more than 2 billion.<

/p>

Before Tumblbug launched the new model of Star You, it only raised a total of 3.1 billion in one year and four months.

Faced with such a high amount of crowdfunding for a movie project, Li Yongjun and the others cannot help but treat it with caution. Tumblbug is now very famous, but if there is a step forward, Fundu will serve as a warning.

Han Zidong waved to Zhao Zhenglai, the producer of "Ghost Town" opposite him. Apart from Hu Lang's unexpected surprise, Zhao Zhenglai was one of the main motivations for him to participate in this meeting.

In order to raise funds for "Ghost Town", Zhao Zhenglai worked hard for 14 years, just to recover the pain of the ethnic groups during the Japanese occupation, to make more people pay attention to the group of war victims, and to make the government and people face up to

History.

"They are not immoral, they are just victims of war!"

He has some respect for those people who are willing to engage in things that may not seem to have high economic value, but are of great significance to society and the nation.

Although Zhao Zhenglai opposite didn't understand Han Zidong's intention, he still nodded politely in return.

The interaction between the two was noticed by Shen Dacheng. He stopped and looked at Han Zidong. As he worked, the whole conference room, with students and students all looking at Han Zidong.

Han Zidong looked around and asked in a light tone: "What, do you want to decide what to eat for lunch? I want to eat bone soup."

The atmosphere of this meeting was different from previous M&A meetings. Although there were heated discussions during the meeting, the ultimate goals of the two parties participating in the meeting were the same.

Therefore, many people laughed when he made such a gag.

Shen Dacheng pressed his eyebrows, and he found that he was increasingly unable to handle Han Zidong, the monkey from the east.

"Zidong, you are both the project initiator and the director of Tumblbug. Please share your views."

"Okay."

Although Han Zidong had not prepared to speak, he was not panicked when he was suddenly called on. His eyes slowly swept across the several project sponsors opposite.

"Fundu will become a sub-brand specializing in film and television comprehensive projects in the future, and its crowdfunding amount will only get higher and higher.

Whether they are ordinary patrons or our Tumblbug management, they must slowly get used to this and avoid making a fuss."

The faces of the production team on the opposite side were softer, while the people on the Tumblbug side generally had strange expressions.

In other words, Shen Dacheng, Liu Chengcan, and Zheng Yinghao, the three people who had the most contacts with Han Zidong, watched Han Zidong's performance with great interest.

"However, an excessively high amount of crowdfunding will undoubtedly increase the project's fundraising time, and it will inevitably arouse criticism from some netizens. As a film and television series that needs to be released in the future, word-of-mouth issues cannot be ignored.

Therefore, I suggest that the projects on Fundu can be directly carried out in two operating modes: immediate payment type and installment payment type according to their respective needs."

The instant-payment StarYou project and the installment-payment Lezhin ic are originally designed to facilitate him to withdraw project funds, which naturally conforms to the mentality of the project sponsor.

However, these film projects require a long production cycle. If these two models are simply implemented, the risks faced by Tumblbug will be greatly increased.

In this regard, people on the Tumblbug side discussed it a lot.

Han Zidong continued with a smile: "As one of the first beneficiaries of the new model, I am personally willing to accept the financial supervision assigned by Tumblbug."

Lee Yong Joon was very pleased with this, Yoo Sung Chan looked surprised, Shin Dae Sung was slightly confused, and only Jung Young Ho almost didn't choke on his saliva.

I love what Han Zidong said the other day: "Don't be in a hurry. Let's talk about it during the meeting." That's what he meant. You're not a son of a man!
