Chapter 586 Meeting (2)
Gong Qishui said after reading these two cartoons: "Miss Xing, are you really human?"
Tian Shao said with a smile: "I was mainly responsible for drawing the characters in "Longevity", and the plot was thought up by other painters together."
Longevity was completed in cooperation with others, but the signature of "Sailor Moon" is only K. In other words, she produced three comics in one go. It would be great to write one such good work, but she produced three at once, which is absolutely impossible for normal people.
Gong Qishui hesitated for a while and said: "Miss Xing, I think it's better to change your pen name for this new comic, otherwise someone will seize this point and attack you."
Attack what? Naturally, she thought she was lying. After all, one person's hand speed is limited, and he can't draw so many cartoons in a month.
Tian Shao did not agree, she said: "At that time, you can announce to the public that there is a team serving me. I am only responsible for the storyline and = character portraits, and the comics are completed by the team's artist."
This is also true, and even if they don't say it, experts can guess it. After all, there is the limit of human beings, and it is impossible for her to have such a large output without eating or drinking.
Gong Qishui asked tentatively: "Miss Xing, I want to ask, how many people are there in your team?"
Tian Shao said with a smile: "There are only fourteen people for the time being, and there should be a few more next year."
Before she came to Hong Kong, she asked her superiors to second a few more female painters. Now Shaohua Comic Company is listed on it, so normal requirements will be met.
Gong Qishui was speechless secretly. He thought he would serve Tian Shao only three or five times, but he didn't expect so many: "Miss Xing, if we want to expose this matter, I think it will cause an earthquake in the comics industry."
In the past, the comics were drawn by the authors themselves, but now they are completed by many people, just like an assembly line.
Tian Shao said: "As long as readers like to read and are willing to buy, other people don't care."
Gong Qishui said bluntly: "Miss Xing, if you can hide your whereabouts from those gangs and our opponents, you will definitely not be able to hide your whereabouts from Mr. Bao and Mr. Li."
Tian Shao said with a smile: "Why should I hide it from them? I'm still going to treat them to dinner after I finish my work!"
Although Bao Huamao and Li Hongyi lost the betting agreement with him, there are wins and losses in business. Knowing that she had a backer, she felt that Bao Huamao and Li Hongyi would not turn against each other for such a small benefit.
Gong Qishui felt that he couldn't see through Tian Shao's thoughts. Forget it, the times are changing, and now it is the world of young people, it would be nice if he, an old man, could have a bowl of food to eat.
Tian Shao said: "Uncle, Editor-in-Chief Gong, my plan is to issue "Dragon Ball" and "Longevity" twice a week, and "Guchuan" and "Sailor Moon" once a week."
Gong Qishui thinks that these two new comics have good intentions, and there are popular comics with good results: "Yes, but can the follow-up keep up?"
"Don't worry about this, I can keep up."
Next, Tian Shao took out the separate volumes of the two manga "Gu Chuan" and "Dragon Ball", and said: "These two manga will be printed for another two to three thousand to test the water, and if they sell well, then print again."
Gong Qishui said: "Miss Xing, "Gu Chuan" will be printed in 3,000 copies first, and "Dragon Ball" can be printed in 10,000 copies."
Xing Shaohui also agreed with Gong Qishui's proposal. The main reason is that the latter book sells more popular, and the high sales volume is also driven by this book. Relatively speaking, Gu Chuan is not as good.
After talking about these two things, Tian Shao said a little strangely: "Editor Gong, I have read all the comics we published in newspapers and periodicals earlier. Why hasn't an artist contributed to us for so long?"
At Tian Shao's strong request, she was given all the comic newspapers and magazines published by the company last month, so she knew all the contents of the newspapers and magazines very well.
Gong Qishui sighed and said, "Miss Xing, you said before that we don't want to accept comics about gang fights and pornographic side-ball comics, and this has wiped out most of them. And you don't sit in the company, and the two comics serialized by our company The comics are so popular, if a well-known artist contributes a series, it is like carrying the sedan chair for you."
Yes, Tian Shao felt that his thinking was too simple.
Gong Qishui said: "Miss Xing, I can understand that you don't like those who play around the corner, but gang fights and martial arts are the mainstream here in Hong Kong City, and we shouldn't abandon them."
Tian Shao waved his hand and said, "Gang fights are not considered, martial arts can be accepted."
Gong Qishui asked cautiously: "Miss Xing, do you have any good ideas?"
Tian Shao shook his head and said: "I read more comics, and less contact with martial arts novels. But everyone can brainstorm and discuss together, maybe you can come up with a good story."
Gong Qishui was a little disappointed. But after thinking about it, it's normal. Ms. Xing needs to know all kinds of subjects to be scary!
The company can’t receive good works, so there’s no rush for this. Tian Shao said: "Let's do more publicity in this area, maybe we can find good works!"
After talking about work, Xing Shaohui talked about salary again. Now that the sales of newspapers and periodicals are increasing, everyone's workload is more than before. He thinks that the salary should be raised.
Tian Shao nodded, indicating that the salary should be increased. If the workload increases and the salary does not increase, the employees will run out sooner or later, and they will also have a reputation of being stingy. At that time, truly talented people will not come to help you do things.
Xing Shaohui handed the watch he made to Tian Shao, letting her look at it herself.
Tian Shao looked at it, and said with a smile: "Uncle, everything in the company depends on you, your salary will be doubled; the things that Editor-in-Chief Gong has to manage will also be increased by 1.5 times, and everything else will be determined by you, Uncle." standard."
Xing Shaohui smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Gong Qishui was also very happy. His current salary is 300, and it will rise to 750 in the future. When the comics are revised next year, the sales will increase and the wages will definitely increase. When the company is fully established, I can let my wife come to the company to work as a cleaner, so that I can save a lot of money every month. If you are more frugal, you can buy a house in less than three years.
Since he came to Shaohua Comic Company, he feels that life is getting more and more exciting.
After the meeting, Tian Shao looked at his watch and saw that it was six o'clock. The time passed so quickly: "Uncle, Editor-in-Chief Gong, let's go out to eat!"
Xing Shaohui shook his head and said: "It's not a good thing if it is photographed in the tabloids. I will go to eat with Editor-in-Chief Gong, and you and Zhao Ni will go to eat by yourself."
Tian Shao knew that he was worried about his safety, so he smiled and said, "Okay, then go eat! Uncle, I'm going to the comic company to check the accounts tomorrow, and I hope you can arrange it."
Xing Shaohui didn't agree with her going to the company: "I'll ask someone to send the company account, so as not to expose your identity by going to the company."
Tian Shao agreed: "Uncle, go to the bank tomorrow and get a copy of the bank balance. If you are busy, let Gong Zheng go."
"good."
Dear friends, it’s the last day, if you have a monthly ticket, hurry up and vote, otherwise it will be invalidated tomorrow. o(*￣︶￣*)o, today is still the fifth watch.
