I just want to draw cartoons quietly

That's why Huang Ming proposed such a condition.

He contributes part of the funds, and in the form of technical shares, occupies 40.00% of the shares.

"Of course, I'm just a suggestion." Huang Ming said.

"If Mr. Shui Xin disagrees, I can understand. I can also help Mr. Shui Xin find an excellent team to produce these two works. However, I may not be able to help Mr. Shui Xin with other related matters after the production of the works is successful Teacher Xin solved it."

This is also a matter of course. Although Huang Ming is very optimistic about Chu Yu, and even more optimistic about the two works brought by Chu Yu, adults always pay attention to their interests when doing things. As a nine-star producer, Huang Ming, he has such He has the strength to help Chu Yu solve many animation issues related to [-] Centimeters per Second and Voice of the Stars, but why did he waste too much of his time helping Chu Yu?

Chu Yu was silent for a while.

"Producer Huang, I want to ask why you want to invest in [-] Centimeters per Second and Voice of the Stars?" Chu Yu asked.

"Nothing? A big company like Jiuxing will reject your submission because of the risk and the rate of return, but I won't..." Huang Ming looked at Chu Yu.

"I am very optimistic about these two works. I think they will be popular, and you just need my joining to solve some professional problems for you. In this case, it is only natural that I have such an idea."

Chu Yu nodded upon hearing this.

To be honest, Chu Yu is not disgusted with Huang Ming's proposal of investing in capital. After all, whether his little money is enough to produce these two works is still a matter of opinion, and Chu Yu also has a series of things about how to make money after production. not understand.

It was also Chu Yu's idea to find a professional person to take charge of this matter, and give him some benefits so that he can do his best to be responsible for the work.

If you are reluctant to part with these benefits, you may end up losing more.

And even if Huang Ming does not join, Chu Yu will still find a special person to take charge of this matter. Although Huang Ming does not contribute much, the various relationships he brings are also invisible resources. With the addition of experienced people, at least Chu Yu will not be cheated of funds by many companies during the production of the two works.

It's just that... 40.00% is too high.

Chu Yu contributed a large amount of funds, and also produced the script, and even the music of the work is ready-made. It is a bit unreasonable for Huang Ming to expect such a high proportion of income.

Although Chu Yu doesn't care much about the monetary benefits of the work, he cares more about whether the work can earn him world points and system rewards.

But it's not that kind of being taken advantage of, the interests that should be fought for still have to be fought for.

"20.00% ratio..." Chu Yu began to bargain.

He doesn't know the market very well, but Chu Yu always bargains from half the price when he buys everyday, and this time... is no exception.

Huang Ming was taken aback when he heard the words, and then understood what Chu Yu meant.

"20.00%? Teacher Shuixin, are you making a sincere counteroffer? I contributed 60 yuan, plus your 300 million yuan for a total of 360 million yuan. My contribution alone accounts for nearly [-]%. Do you think I used my connections to find an animation production team, and then I was responsible for the post-production, publicity, and negotiations with various stakeholders. Is the result of labor only worth a mere [-]% of the income?" Huang Ming's voice became much louder.

This is his consistent habit. When negotiating, the momentum must calm down the other party.

It's just that Chu Yu didn't feel anything about it.

"Then I also wrote the script of the story, and I found someone to create the full soundtrack of the animation." Chu Yu said calmly.

Huang Ming's mind turned when he heard this, the two of them contributed to the creation of the work in other ways besides funding, and it would not be beneficial to him to talk about such a topic.

"30.00% five..." Huang Ming didn't discuss with Chu Yu in this direction.

"20.00% one." Chu Yu looked at Huang Ming.

"What's there to talk about with this one percent profit?" Huang Ming realized for the first time that the young man in front of him was really not good at talking.

"30.00% Three, this is my bottom line. If Teacher Shui Xin disagrees with this, then there is nothing to talk about."

"20.00% two..." Chu Yu didn't believe in any bottom line.

This is the same as going shopping. The seller always says that the price will not be sold. When you are about to leave, he will call you back in most cases.

"..." Huang Ming.

........

Half an hour later, Huang Ming finally agreed with Chu Yu's proposal of 20.00% eight with difficulty.

The main thing is that he can see that Chu Yu's psychological bottom line is this number.

Although it was a bit different from the 30.00% figure he imagined, Huang Ming really felt that these two works had the potential to become popular, and he didn't want to give up such an opportunity.

In the end, it was a preliminary consensus with Chu Yu.

Neither of them expected that what they thought was just a meeting for a meal and a chat, turned out to be a business in the end.

This is only the result of the temporary agreement between the two. If it is someone else, maybe they will regret it after thinking about it for a while, but considering the personalities of Chu Yu and Huang Ming, if there are no special circumstances, they will basically not regret it .

After the two agreed on a time to sign the agreement, Huang Ming and Chu Yu separated.

Of course, Chu Yu also asked if Huang Ming's behavior was not within the tolerance of Jiuxing Company.

Huang Ming said a word to Chu Yu.

"Many bosses of small and medium-sized animation companies in Shanghai used to work in big animation companies like Jiuxing, Dakai, and Qiyu."

Chu Yu instantly understood what Huang Ming meant.

This guy is obviously the kind of person who will jump out and do it alone when he has the opportunity, and he also has an idea in his heart to make a career by himself.

The premise is that if you encounter such an opportunity....

For Huang Ming, an investment of 60 yuan is nothing. Even if he loses badly, he can recover half of his capital, and a loss of hundreds of thousands will not hurt him.

But if he succeeds in betting on Chu Yu's works this time, maybe for him, he can open up a new path for his career in the future.

The two went back after being courteous.

Huang Ming was thinking about how to form an animation production team.

As for Chu Yu...it's time to start thinking about the serialization of Initial D.

Next week is the day Li Xi said he would submit the initial D to the serialization meeting.

If all goes well at the serial meeting....

Chu Yu will be busy in the next few days.

Not only is he responsible for drawing the comics of Natsume's Book of Friends, he is also responsible for the serialization of the initial D. In addition, he also needs to complete his school studies, and if the cooperation with Huang Ming goes well, Chu Yu, the boss, will definitely Be distracted by the animations of [-] Centimeters per Second and Voice of the Stars.

Not to mention surpassing Xin Haicheng's original level, at least, the style of painting and the exquisiteness of the picture must be restored.

As the main creator, Chu Yu will definitely spend a lot of energy communicating with the animation production team about the production direction and production level of these two works. Perhaps there are many exquisite scenes in the animation, and Chu Yu will also draw manga drafts for the minds of the team members. There is an approximate creation outline in . .

Chapter 162 Discussion

Time passed, and it had been several days since Chu Yu and Huang Ming met.

In the past few days, Chu Yu's daily life has also become busy.

The manga drawing work of Natsume's Book of Friends cannot be left behind, and He Sheng and Lin Fan are also starting the drawing of the original manuscript of Initial D.

Finally, before the week that Li Xi said about the serialization meeting of the new work on the water edge, Chu Yu and others barely finished drawing the original manuscript of the four-episode initial D. At the same time, Chu Yu also drew the original manuscript of the initial D. In the tenth chapter, I finally described the racing plot of Fujiwara Takumi and Takahashi Keisuke.

Li Xi, who came to collect the comic manuscripts early in the morning, picked up the original manuscript of the initial D and the manuscript of the name drawn by Chu Yu, and started to read it directly.

But, looking at it, Li Xi frowned.

"Chu Yu..."

"Ah? What's the matter?" Chu Yu looked up.

"Why do Natsuki and her father look weird in your work?"

"What's so weird?"

"For example, in this line, Xia Shu's father said, "Dad, I also really want to see you in a swimsuit!" "Then Xia Shu responded very strangely. Is this kind of conversation a normal conversation between father and daughter?" Li Xi looked at Chu Yu suspiciously.

"Normally speaking, the average father wouldn't talk like this when his daughter is so old?"

"Father and daughter?" Chu Yu looked strange.

Why is Li Xi so simple-minded?But that's right, at the beginning when Chu Yu saw the initial D, he also thought that the two were real father and daughter, but only realized after seeing that he was too young.

"They are not father and daughter!" Chu Yu said directly.

Since such a plot was drawn, Chu Yu naturally wouldn't feel embarrassed.

After directly explaining the relationship between Xiashu and the so-called "father" in the setting with Li Xi.

Li Xi's eyes widened, and he looked at Chu Yu with a strange expression.

"You mean, the two of them are...that kind of relationship?"

"That's right..."

Li Xi looked at the comic manuscript in his hand, and then at Chu Yu in front of him.

"Why do you want to set it up like this? Just be normal. Isn't it good that Natsuki and Takumi's relationship is used as a daily line to adjust life after racing?"

"This kind of plot...... the reader's acceptance may not be very high!"

"No..." Chu Yu looked at Li Xi.

"The setting about Natsuki is very necessary. You have seen the work. The protagonist Fujiwara Takumi is actually just an ordinary high school student. Although he has superb driving skills, he is actually different from most adolescent boys. It’s not that big, that is to say, he’s a little more dull and silent...”

"For such a person to transform from a high school student to a driver, he must need other stimulation."

"For example, a failed emotional experience?" Li Xi somewhat understood what Chu Yu meant.

"But there's no need to use this method... You can write Natsuki's empathy in the later stage..."

Li Xi felt that Chu Yu's idea was too bold, and relatively speaking, such a plot was too realistic and mature.

The ghost knows how a young man who has never been in love would set up a godfather for a suspected heroine in his work......

Li Xi still feels that such a setting will scare away many readers.

Plots such as green hats and giving away girls are poisonous not only in the novel world, but also in the comic world.

Just like Xuxiang and Asuna in the parallel world work Sword Art Online, Asuna was just fake ntr by Xuxiang in the game world, and a bunch of people couldn't bear it... (The author saw this at the beginning Almost abandoned the fan, and Suxiang was picked up later by tyranny.)

"Li Xi, I've decided to set it up like this. A man needs to be hit hard to grow up. A normal blow from a broken relationship can't make Takumi transform..." Chu Yu started talking nonsense.

Chu Yu just doesn’t want to change the works of the parallel world. He knows about the butterfly effect. Whether the works that will be popular in the parallel world can be popular in this world is a matter of two opinions, but the plot of the original work has been experienced. It has been tested by many readers in the parallel world. If it is not necessary, making blind changes may reduce the excitement of the work.

"Hearing you say these things is clear and logical, but such words from a person who has never even been in love are not convincing at all." Li Xi stared at Chu Yu and said.

"So what, I don't know swordsmanship, but I can also create Rurouni Kenshin's Memories. I can't see ghosts, and I haven't created Natsume's Book of Friends and Unheard Hana. I don't have emotional experience, so naturally it doesn't hinder me. Create the relationship between Fujiwara Takumi and Natsuki."

"Besides, this work can also be regarded as a work without a heroine. After all, a driver does not need a woman, but Fujiwara Takumi has not yet understood this, so Natsuki's setting is necessary....... .”

"Okay, okay, don't say any more." Li Xi raised his hands, signaling Chu Yu to stop.

"I understand what you mean. If this is the case, the work will be submitted without modification," Li Xi said.

"Then I'll trouble you, Li Xi!" Chu Yu nodded in satisfaction.

"By the way, I forgot to ask you... what was the result of what you said about finding Huang Ming for the two new works?" Li Xi asked.

"Okay!"

"Huang Ming was very interested in those two works, and said that he wanted to cooperate with me to animate the two works. Anyway, he suggested that I would be happy to be the shopkeeper."

"Otherwise, if I am going to do it alone, just looking for the animation production team, painters, painting supervisors, music directors, work operations, and animation production to discuss broadcasting matters with various websites, and divide the situation, then I guess I may really I don't have the energy to estimate the creation of comics..."

"Huang Ming wants to cooperate with you to jointly fund the production of animation?" Li Xi's tone was full of surprise.

"It seems that the quality of your two works is indeed excellent! A person like Huang Ming, who has never been exposed to any kind of excellent works, and has a very accurate business vision, would be willing to invest in cooperation with you...... "

"It's just a pity, you said that those two works are too short to be serialized on Xuan Gui." Li Xi shook his head, feeling a little regretful.

Although she hadn't seen Chu Yu's two works, she believed that Huang Ming's vision, the works he could fall in love with must not be simple.

Although according to what Chu Yu said, this cooperation is only a private cooperation between Huang Ming and Chu Yu, and cannot rely on the power of Nine Stars, but with Huang Ming's strength and relationship in the animation industry of Shanghai Magic City, it can provide Chu Yu's works with an average level of broadcasting. It should not be difficult to get out of the operation channel.

Although the funds of the two are not very sufficient, and perhaps the animation cannot be widely publicized after the success of the animation, but as long as the quality of Chu Yu's works is high enough, there is definitely a chance to become popular.

"I always feel that you have to change your identity from a cartoonist to an animation drama creator! Since coming to Shanghai, with the unserialized initial D, only two comics have been created, but three animations have already been produced and produced. It's ready to be produced." Li Xi looked at Chu Yu and said thoughtfully.

"How is it possible? Comics are my main business, and the creation of animations is still a bit later than comics!" Chu Yu said.

This is also a fact. In the manga system, there are always more original works that are manga. Five Centimeters per Second and The Voice of the Stars are just really not suitable for creating manga. Chu Yu had no choice but to have the idea of ​​animating them.

"That's fine, although for you, you may be able to succeed in any direction, but I always feel that human energy is limited... I hope you will try not to be affected by these things to create comics Let's go!" Li Xi said.

Chapter 163 The Serial Meeting Begins

It was just a good intention of Li Xi to help Chu Yu's unheard name into an animation before, but if Chu Yu really focused on animation, then she would be shooting herself in the foot.

After finishing speaking, Li Xi read the original manuscript of the four-episode manga with the initial D, and couldn't wait to look at the five-episode to ten-episode name draft drawn by Chu Yu.

The original manuscripts of the first four chapters are just foreshadowing the encounter and conflict between Fujiwara Takumi and Takahashi Keisuke.
