Chapter 523 Happy Negotiation

With the example of Tokuma Shoten, is it beneficial for a news media group like Asahi Shimbun Group to be friends with such a powerful cultural company?

Not to mention anything else, just talk about the 9 comics of "Kirin Weekly" in Yin Jun's hands, plus super classic zombie comics such as "Resident Evil", and various peripheral products derived from them, such as animation, TV series, movies, toys Figures, video games, etc., all of which are comparable to money printing machines.

Over the years in Japan, the animation industry has not been developed as an independent industry, but because of the influence of generations of cartoonists, young people now like animation very much.

Among the Japanese, there are not a few who have far-sightedness, otherwise they would not have invaded and put Hua Guo in such a mess.

After they switched careers and started business, this shrewdness and foresight came to business, so Japanese businessmen have been calling the shots and showing off their power internationally for a long time.

In the comics industry, they also have smart people, who have long felt that it is necessary to dig deeper into the industry chain.

For example, the top executives of Asahi Shimbun Group took "Kirin Weekly" as an example to explain where its comics will develop in the future and how much profit it will expect.

If this analysis data is obtained by Yin Jun, he must be surprised, because the analysis is so accurate, not only how much money can be made, but the key is in which aspects to develop derivative products, this is the crystallization of wisdom.

Of course, the Japanese have always paid such attention to detail.

For example, after the Daqing Oilfield was shot that year, the official took a promotional photo of Wang Jinxi, an iron man, standing on the construction site of the oilfield, with all kinds of equipment and foundations in the distance.

Originally, when ordinary people saw it, they just sighed, and it was over.

But the Japanese are different. After they found the photos, they began to seriously analyze, what tools did you Wang Jinxi take, the scale of oil contamination on the tools, the tonnage and location of the cranes, and the distance between the towers. What are the characteristics of the distance, terrain and landform...they have conducted the most rigorous scientific analysis on these, and they have roughly obtained the approximate location, storage capacity, annual production capacity, etc. of the Daqing Oilfield.

Immediately afterwards, based on these data, they began to manufacture various equipment and equipment used in oil fields.

As a result, when Huaguo invited bids for equipment from all over the world, the Japanese took their own equipment and equipment data, and of course it was the most suitable.

As a result, a large amount of precious foreign exchange in Huaguo was just earned by the Japanese.

You see, just a photo can make the Japanese make so many articles, you can't even accept it!

The headquarters of Asahi Shimbun Group is in Osaka, but they also have a branch office in Tokyo.

Originally they wanted to invite Yin Jun to talk in Osaka, but Teresa Teng was recording songs in Tokyo, Yin Jun naturally chose Tokyo to stop.

Anyway, Japan is not a big place, and it is only a two-hour flight from Osaka to Tokyo. The cooperation with Yin Jun does not require their general affairs, director or even representative director at all, only one executive is enough.

However, the Japanese's superficial skills are still very appropriate. They are preparing to come this time with a general manager, which is already the standard for a director in a Japanese club, equivalent to the position of the deputy general manager of the headquarters.

Naturally, he was not needed to meet Yin Jun, but when it was time to greet Yin Jun at night, he naturally came to the hotel to pick Yin Jun up in person, and went to a very old manor in the capital.

This manor has been transformed into a high-end Japanese restaurant. It is said that it only receives 6 tables of guests in one night, and it is not open during the day. A table of ancient Japanese kaiseki cuisine can feed a small company poorly.

These are what Kojima Hirayama told Yin Jun. At this time, on the tatami mat in the spacious and bright Japanese room, a white-haired middle-aged man sat facing Yin Jun, and Kojima Hirayama sat on the side.

Hu Yi will only play a role when it comes to specific cooperation content. Today's tentative dinner is in nature, and it doesn't matter whether he goes or not.

And the Asahi Shimbun Group also had someone to accompany him to Ginza to eat and drink for a while, so he would not feel left out.

Kojima Hirayama can sit here not because he can speak English and understand translation, but because the white-haired middle-aged man next to him is called Kojimasuke, who is his uncle.

The Asahi Shimbun Group has five big families in charge. In fact, in modern times, it has become the five largest shareholders, and the Kojima family is one of them.

The cooperation with Yin Jun this time was started by Kojima Hirayama, so the next task was handed over to the Kojima family.

Kojimasuke was very polite and poured warm low-alcohol rice wine for Yin Jun, "I am very happy that Mr. Yin can come to Japan to discuss cooperation. This represents a good relationship between us Asahi Shimbun and Kirin Group." cooperation begins."

"Didn't we have a friendly cooperation for a long time?" Yin Jun clinked glasses with him, "There is a very deep historical relationship between China and Japan. I hope that in the future, we can work together to achieve success together, instead of being trapped I am delayed by boring disputes. I know that the Asahi Shimbun Group can treat China, which is still backward, fairly, and I like and respect your actions very much.”

"Mr. Yin, you are welcome. We have always been committed to the friendship between China and Japan, now and in the future." Kojimasuke laughed.

Yin Jun's attitude is an obvious signal of friendliness, and it can be seen from this that there should be no major problems in this cooperation.

He thought that Yin Jun was just using this topic to convey his cooperation intention, but he didn't know that the reason why Asahi Shimbun was able to cooperate with Yin Jun was their friendship with China.

Don't let those close to you feel cold.

It is necessary to increase the contradictions in Japan.

These two points are the most important reasons why Yin Jun supports Tokuma Yasukai, and by the way, also prepares to support Asahi Shimbun Group.

From now on, although the overall scale of Yin Jun's Kirin Group exceeds 3 billion Hong Kong dollars, compared with Asahi Shimbun Group, it is not even as good as one of their branches. How can they support them?

But only Yin Jun knows how crazy profits can be created by those super classic comics in his hands.

As long as the Asahi Shimbun can firmly control this exclusive franchise, the annual output value in the future can exceed 10 billion US dollars at most!

Don't doubt, Japan has always been the largest consumer of animation, and Akihabara has supported many manga manufacturers.

In the future, the animations, toys, games, movies, etc. of hundreds of classic comics will not be worth 10 billion in production value?

Even if the 10 billion US dollars is the output value and not the actual profit, the collateral benefits brought about by this sales volume, including the huge influence, are all real!

While eating the dishes, Yin Jun said, "As for the specific cooperation, professional personnel will discuss it at that time. Apart from this, I would like to have a request."

Kojimasuke put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "Please tell me!"

"Because our main body is in Xiangjiang, I hope that the animation masters of Toei Animation can take turns to work in Xiangjiang." Yin Jun said.

"Can."

Kojima said without hesitation.

Before coming here, Toei Animation has already had a round, and they have considered this issue.

Toei Animation has a relatively large number of animators, and they can hire some from outside, so even if they transfer some to Xiangjiang, it is not a big problem.

Kirin Culture's animation studio is definitely willing to develop in its own territory, and all of them came to you in Japan. What does that sound like?

Because he wanted to make friends with Yin Jun, Kojimasuke did not hide it, and answered very straightforwardly, "If Kirin culture needs it, we can shoot a team of more than 30 animators for two years to help you make Animation. They are very experienced people, and with their help, I believe the production of animation can be accelerated.”

"If you only want to make "Transformers", these people should be enough, but if you want to continue to make more cartoons, I'm afraid it's not enough." Yin Jun said directly.

"Well, we also know this." Kojimasuke nodded and said, "But Toei Animation also has its own work, and it is not easy to find 30 people to rotate."

"So, can we hire more talents from other animation companies in Japan?" Yin Jun said, "It won't take too long. We will sign an employment contract with their company, and we will only borrow for one to two years. We will never poach people. The conditions must satisfy them."

"I'm afraid they won't agree, unless you can also let them be in charge of animation production for manga." Kojimasuke shook his head.

Too.

Yin Jun nodded.

I still underestimate others.

Money doesn't always work. Compared to money, their talent is more important. Unless there is the temptation to turn manga into animation, it's hard to impress these animation companies.

"Then, can you ask your company's animators to help us train a group of students after work?" Yin Jun asked, "Don't worry, we will pay double the salary."

When Yin Jun asked this question, a Chinese person would definitely find it strange.

You have come to work with us, and it is only natural to teach students occasionally during working hours. What is there to embarrass?

However, in developed countries, there are very clear provisions on the types and contents of jobs.

Animators come to Kylin Culture to make animations, and teaching students is not part of their scope of work, so they have every reason to refuse.

If Yin Jun wants them to teach people, he must make it clear before coming, otherwise it will be an embarrassment if he says it and people ignore it.

"Oh, that's fine. Since it's a sincere cooperation, we will help cultivate talents." Xiaojima nodded and said, "As for payment, don't worry about it. This is part of our cooperation, and there is no need to pay separately cost."

"good!"

Yin Jun was very satisfied, and raised his glass again, "I hope we can have a happy cooperation!"

"Looking forward to a win-win situation!"

Kojima laughed.

At first glance, the Asahi Shimbun Group paid a little too much, but in the long run, they got more benefits.

That is to say, Kirin Culture was born in Xiangjiang. If it was in Japan, it would have already recruited enough talents to allow them to cope with the current expansion.

The Asahi Shimbun actually took the lead, otherwise it might not be their turn to cooperate with Kirin Culture.

According to news, some animation companies in the United States, France, and the United Kingdom have also contacted Kirin Culture, expecting to cooperate with them.

It is precisely because of so many competitors that Asahi Shimbun decided that it would rather pay more than take a bite of this piece of fat earlier.

Just like taking a bus, those who get on the bus early will have a seat!
