: Shao Qing

In July, there is fire, and the sun is golden.

The sultry weather makes people feel irritable. Even at three o’clock in the afternoon, pedestrians on the road are in a hurry, wiping the sweat from their foreheads, eager to find a shady place.

This is Shenzhen, a city with international influence. As the first city of the reform and opening up of the People’s Republic of China, after decades of rapid construction of high-rise traffic flow, Shenzhen’s speed once became the exclusive vocabulary of China’s development. After the reform and opening up, China has attracted the most attention. one of the cities.

Straightening the sun hat, a 17-year-old boy hurriedly walked, wearing a plaid shirt and jeans, and white casual shoes under his feet, no different from the pedestrians around him.Don’t, ask someone for directions and look at the map from time to time. It’s natural to blend into this environment, making it impossible for people to realize that this boy grew up in Japan.

After groping, the boy finally came to a high-rise building. A big penguin smiley face pattern was hung high, and there were many penguin dolls at the door, marking the building with a penguin symbol.

“Penguin Building.” Seeing such an obvious icon, Su Jie put away the map, knowing that he had found the target.

After touching his legs, he still felt a little sore. In his previous life, Su Jie didn’t come to Shenzhen very often, only a few times, so he wasn’t familiar with it.

The reason why I didn’t choose the convenient car, but walked slowly by myself, is mainly to appreciate this rare opportunity. Maybe in this life, the chance to come to Shenzhen by myself will be less than in the previous life, or even just this one time.

It has been five days since she came to Guangzhou, and Shizuka Hiratsuka took her school trip team to play in Guangzhou city.

While Su Jie was playing, he did not forget the news about the Sino-Japanese animation development cooperation that he saw on TV. He notified Kinoshita Seiichi to make an appointment in the name of the company, and made an appointment with the person in charge of the animation subsidiary of the Penguin Group to come to discuss today.

Step into the building, communicate with the front desk, and soon Su Jie came to the twelfth floor of the building, in front of an office.

During this process, Su Jie also recalled the collected information in his mind.

This is the first time Penguin Group has come into contact with animation. It acquired an animation production company with a lot of money and wealth, and established a new subsidiary company under Penguin Group. Using its huge resources and personal connections, it has reached a talent pool with animation majors in many domestic colleges and universities. Introduced cooperation, the combination established today’s animation subsidiary.

It is said that the person in charge of the animation department is the former boss of the animation production company acquired by Penguin Company, and he still holds the shares of the subsidiary.

Boom boom!

After knocking on the door a few times, Su Jie put away the thoughts in his heart, straightened his collar, and after a thick male voice “come in” came from the room, he opened the door and walked in.

The office is decorated in an antique style, with censer calligraphy and paintings, porcelain and wolf pens on the desk, and a middle-aged man behind is swaying ink beads, writing dragons and snakes on the rice paper, writing in cursive calligraphy.

The middle-aged man has a kind face and a steady expression, which is different from the wild and heroic movements, forming a visual contrast between static and dynamic. Behind him, there is a long copybook with the four characters “Zhongzheng Peaceful” written on it. I don’t know what it is. Not written by himself.

After Su Jie came in, the man stopped his brush, nodded towards Su Jie, and said naturally: “You are the president of Japan Firefly Co., Ltd. In the company, you can just call me Shao Qing, or you can call me Manager Shao, I don’t pay much attention to things.”

While talking, he ushered Su Jie to the small tea table beside him, let Su Jie sit down, and started to make tea casually. The technique was pretty good, and soon a cup of tea was handed over.

Su Jie looked down and saw that the tea soup was green in color, with a quiet aroma, and the emerald green tea leaves were floating up and down in the cup at will, which showed Shao Qing’s tea-making skills.

“You’re welcome.” Su Jie was like chewing peonies, and when the tea was much colder, he took a big sip. The tea is first bitter and then sweet, with a hint of coolness flowing down the throat into the chest and abdomen, like a gust of fresh wind sweeping away the dust in the heart, and after swallowing, it leaves a fragrance on the lips and teeth, which makes people linger.

“Good tea! Manager Shao is really good at craftsmanship.” His eyes lit up, even if Su Jie didn’t know much about tea, he could taste the excellent quality of this tea. Of course, Shao Qing’s tea making skills were also indispensable, and it wasn’t Su Jie’s intention to curry favor .

Perhaps because he had heard too many similar words, Shao Qing just smiled plainly, not commenting on it, and took a sip of tea slowly, and said unhurriedly: “President Su’s reason for coming, if I guess correctly, it should be It is related to our company’s current Japanese talent training plan.”

As he spoke, he refilled Su Jie’s teacup with tea. His movements were as leisurely as old friends meeting under an old tree. It was casual and natural, which made people feel good.

Here is the aura. Compared with Shao Qing, who has been fighting in the mall for a long time, Su Jie is much younger, and it is easy to be led by the nose.

And don’t look at Shao Qing as just a manager, but according to the information Su Jie consulted, this person was able to develop his own animation production company in the desert of the animation industry in China, and few brushes have already gone bankrupt.

Now, although it has been acquired by the wealthy Penguin Group to become a subsidiary company, it can also become the person in charge and retain a lot of shares, which is enough to prove its ability. Su Jie will not treat it lightly.

“Our Firefly Company is really interested in this plan.” Su Jie came here to introduce a group of free laborers, even novices. Hearing Shao Qing’s direct point, he didn’t hide his hope.

“I have seen the situation of Firefly, and the conditions of Firefly’s newly established company may not be enough to participate in the talent introduction plan. We send Chinese animation talents to Japan to learn from successful experience, and Firefly…” Shao Qing said I shook my head here and didn’t continue talking, but what I wanted to express was already obvious, saying that Firefly Animation Company is not qualified enough.

Su Jie was not disappointed, or he had expected it.

Firefly Company is still a newly established animation company. It has not even completed a single animation work in Japan. It is a real novice, and the old driver has not yet started on the road.

Shao Qing, an animation subsidiary affiliated to the Penguin Group, sent Chinese animation talents to Japanese animation companies in order to learn animation production experience.However, for a newly established animation production company, whether it is the experience of employees, the improvement of equipment, or the level of animation production, it is all questionable.

Although Firefly is a Japanese-funded enterprise and is a company that can cooperate, although there are not many Japanese animation production companies covering the streets, there are definitely quite a few. Among so many animation companies, Shao Qing is naturally willing to choose a more secure one Famous animation company.

“This is some information. Our Firefly Animation Production Company is newly established, but it was established after poaching many elites. Currently, we have an animation work in production, and another one is in preparation for production. It can be said that We, Firefly, have no shortage of projects or old employees, what we lack is manpower.”

Su Jie handed Shao Qing some company personnel information about the group of Kinoshita Seiichi who poached them. The resumes of these dozen people are very good, and the company mainly relies on these people to take care of them to make animations, so Su Jie is very happy about this. I am confident that even the newcomers who have just graduated from Japanese universities can teach well, and I believe that the Chinese ones are not bad.

Shao Qing took the materials and looked at them one by one, sometimes nodding and sometimes silent, and more often asked Su Jie some details, especially in several important occupations of animation production, such as original painters and various supervisors, who asked a lot. The painting style of an animation is high-quality, such as the plot story can be improved quickly, a new story is a good theme, but the quality of the painting style is a big problem, the adult animation produced in this way belongs to the Q print style Stupid, no matter how you look at it, you can call it a weird ghost.

After reading the materials given by Su Jie, Shao Qing didn’t speak immediately, but was thinking about plans in his heart.

There is only a faint scent of tea in the office, and the quiet smell of needles dropping can be heard.

Su Jie saw that this was not good, picked up the argument he had wanted to make a long time ago, and said: “I know that Firefly is still very immature and has disadvantages compared with those big animation production companies in Japan, but we Firefly also has corresponding advantages. The animation production companies in China are good, but the number of people these companies can absorb is very limited. Manager Shao should know this better than me. Our Firefly animation company is different. If Manager Shao has enough people, our Firefly can absorb 100-200 people. Newcomers, including people, are given a sufficient learning and practice platform for animation production.

With a heart in his heart, Su Jie slowly turned over his own cards and tried to persuade Shao Qing with conditions.

This is really important. Firefly is actually developing very well now, but Su Jie still dislikes the slow speed. He wants to bring the hot masterpieces of his previous life to the screen faster, which requires manpower and funds. Su Jie doesn’t have these, but Shao Qing has it!

Standing behind him is the Penguin Group, and it says on his face that I need everything, except money.

A look of interest suddenly appeared on Shao Qing’s face, and he was a little moved by what Su Jie said.

What Su Jie said is correct. Shao Qing cooperates with those famous Japanese animation production companies. Other companies have a sound manpower system and a limited number of novices that can be absorbed. If they rashly introduce hundreds of novices, they cannot take care of them at all. The two animation development and production projects originally had no shortage of manpower, so many people were completely useless, and there was too much work on the corners and corners, so we couldn’t lay off old employees to make room for novices.

With iron-clad battalions and flowing soldiers, large companies are usually stable, with stable profits, stable systems, and stable personnel. There are not many positions that can be rotated every year.

But often, if a new company can seize the opportunity and make big strides forward, the people it recruits will rapidly expand like a balloon. Chaos and even company collapse and bankruptcy.

“President Su, can your Firefly company need so many people? As far as I know, animation production companies with a staff size of 100 people in Japan are already well-developed. You can absorb so many novices at once, so don’t go in there as a display.”

After taking a sip of tea, Shao Qing remained calm on the surface, and still had some doubts about what Su Jie said. If a bunch of newcomers were stuffed into the firefly, and most of them would end up with nothing to do, it would be a loss if they returned home without learning anything after a few years Madam broke up again.

“We have prepared two projects here. As long as newcomers come in, they can start participating in animation production immediately. In other companies, this may have to wait. What we pay attention to here is speed and timeliness.”

Seeing that Shao Qing was interested, Su Jie was overjoyed, and handed Shao Qing several materials, which were the materials of “Daily Life of High School Boys” and “Hua Monogatari”, which listed the production plan, and one of them was U disk, inside is the video of the first episode of the pre-release version of “Daily Life of High School Boys”.

Needless to say, the first part is already in production, and the production of the second “The Story of Hua Monogatari” has not yet started, but Shao Qing can see Su Jie’s raging ambitions through this planning document. The difficulty of production and the required funds are very high, which belongs to the top level. No wonder Su Jie dared to recruit so many newcomers.

“Besides, it is precisely because Firefly is a new company that it can better integrate newcomers into the group. The hierarchy in Japanese companies is extremely severe. Although I don’t want to say that the real situation will inevitably have xenophobia. This is in my opinion The Firefly Company, I can strictly eliminate it, after all, I am a Chinese.”

While Shao Qing was flipping through the materials, Su Jie also played the sentimental card, the so-called fellow countryman meets fellow countryman, stabs him in the back…with tears in his eyes, his identity actually plays a role.

“Well, that’s pretty good.” Shao Qing nodded.Nodding, I agree with what Su Jie said: “It’s best to have someone in a foreign country to help you one or two, hehe, to be honest, when I read the information, I also saw President Su’s identity, so I met and talked in person. A Chinese is still at such an age. It is not easy for Japan to make a career.”

“Manager Shao agreed.” Su Jie was amused, a little excited.

Who would have thought that Shao Qing nodded, then shook his head, making Su Jie confused.

Whether this is cooperation or non-cooperation.

“The lad has a big appetite, so he will hold on.” Shao Qing’s address to Su Jie has changed, and the emotional card is still useful.

“The current situation of Firefly is not enough to ensure that we give away people and money on a large scale. No matter how good any plan is, there are risks before it succeeds. The future income may be very attractive, but you have to place a bet How much, that’s what has to be considered.”

Shao Qing didn’t fully listen to Su Jie’s words, or believed it, but felt that the risk was too great.

What Su Jie was talking about was only the future prospects. Shao Qing could indeed send a lot of newcomers and funds to Firefly. It would be embarrassing for a talented person who has not yet learned the dragon slaying technique to practice a milk-grabbing dragon claw to return home halfway.

“We can give Firefly 30 newcomers and 5 million RMB funds for talent training cooperation with Firefly Company. We will pay for people, and your company will be responsible for training and teaching.” Shao Qing finally said his plan, what he can do The newcomers and funds provided are actually quite a lot, but it is really far from the plan in Su Jie’s heart.

“Thirty people? Five million?” Su Jie lost his energy.

The development and production of “Hua Monogatari” alone requires at least hundreds of people. Although “Hua Monogatari” is a super-hot gold-making behemoth sold by BD, the money consumed in the production process is enough to bring down an animation production company. Currently Su Jie spent 30 to 40 million yen a month in “Daily Life of High School Boys”, while the production cost of Huamonogatari was six or seven times that of the former, and 5 million RMB was just a fraction of the production of “Huamonugatari”. Listening to a splash is almost the same.

“Yes, we have to be responsible for personnel training and financial security. Although I am very optimistic about you, the market is ruthless. We have to follow the regulations.”

Shao Qing refused to let go, and did not give Su Jie what he wanted in a big way. In the end, he might feel that he couldn’t kill him all at once, and said: “When your Firefly company develops better, we will continue to increase personnel and funds. , this is not static.”

Su Jie wouldn’t come here if he develops slowly. What Su Jie lacks now is time. He said anxiously: “Why, our Firefly company will not lack projects. I planned “The Daily Life of Boys’ High School Voice”, and “The Story of Hua Monogatari” I wrote the novel, and I also drew “One-Punch Man”, this comic will also be registered in our Firefly company and developed into an animation, in the future our company will not lack animation projects, and we can digest and absorb it with human hands.”

Shao Qing was stunned for a moment, maybe he didn’t expect Su Jie to have so many skills. As the boss of an animation company, Shao Qing also often pays attention to the development trend of ACG in Japan, and also heard about “One Punch Man” last year. The third most popular manga in Japan.

Just looking at Su Jie’s expectant eyes, Shao Qing finally shook his head and told the truth: “These are your capital, but they are still in the mirror, and Firefly Animation Company doesn’t even have a finished animation. It is impossible for us to put all our money on this, so let me increase the number of people to 50 and the funds to 10 million, which should be enough for your early stage.”

How could it be possible!

What Su Jie thought in his heart was expressed on his face, but no matter what Su Jie said, Shao Qing refused to give Firefly more money.

In the final analysis, Firefly has no qualifications. If Firefly can have an animation released now and get a lot of praise, I believe there will be more benefits today.

Few people are willing to believe in the ability of a new company. If Su Jie encounters such a company, Su Jie may wonder if it is a leather bag company or a scam money speculator. It is already very good that Shao Qing can invest in Su Jie. , I just understand it in my heart, but what is placed in front of Su Jie is reality.

Not enough people!

Not enough money!

The thigh hug did not succeed!

Dejectedly, he walked out of the office. Su Jie didn’t even bother to force a smile on his face. Just as he was about to leave, a shout suddenly came from behind him.

“Su Jie, why are you here?”

Turning his head in doubt, an elegant and noble figure in a blue orchid dress waved to Su Jie
