Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981 Chapter 127

   Chapter 127 Printing House

   After a while, Xue Yufei returned to Yang Chen's side again, and handed Yang Chen several sets of photos of other people to choose from.

   "Achen, about the printing factory, I told my father this morning, and my father said that there is a printing factory that just meets your requirements.

  Which printing factory is not far from us, it just opened in the second half of last year, and there are dozens of the latest automatic printing equipment.

   Originally, the owner of the printing factory saw that the Hong Kong comics industry was very popular in recent years, and it was like following the trend into the market.

   The printing factory behind it was done, but the comics it produced were not popular with people, so that the factory kept losing money.

  I heard from my father that the factory can print at least tens of thousands of comic books a day, and it is fully operational, which can fully meet the needs of all primary and middle school students in Xiangjiang. "

   Having said this, Xue Yufei frowned and wanted to say something, but finally held back.

   It happened that Yang Chen could hear something from her tone, looked up and saw Xue Yufei's expression of hesitating to speak, and asked with a smile, "Is it because the other party's price is too high?"

  Xue Yufei shook her head and said, "That's not true. The other party's price is very reasonable. Although it is a bit more expensive than other factories, the machinery and equipment are all brand new, and it didn't take long."

After speaking, Xue Yufei walked behind Yang Chen, put her hands on Yang Chen's shoulders, and while helping him massage, she suggested: "Chen, I think if it's just for a fashion magazine, we don't have to spend so much money to buy it. The next printing house."

   "There are so many newspapers in Xiangjiang, and there are so many printing houses, we can definitely find one for cooperation."

   From Xue Yufei's point of view, Yang Chen spent millions to buy a printing factory for fashion magazines. This was a business at a loss, and it had no meaning at all.

  Fashion magazines are different from newspapers. Newspapers have news reports every day. As long as they operate well, they will not lose too much.

   But fashion magazines are different. This thing is at most once or twice a week, and the audience is limited. For this purpose, Xue Yufei felt that it was not worthwhile to buy a printing factory.

   Hearing Xue Yufei's words, Yang Chen asked with a smile while selecting the photo in his hand, "Who said I bought a printing house because of a fashion magazine?"

   Without waiting for Xue Yufei to ask, Yang Chen asked again, "Have I asked all the people you recruited to recruit?"

  Xue Yufei paused, "Are you talking about recruiting art students?"

  Yang Chen stopped what he was doing, turned his head and glanced at Xue Yufei, "Yes, this year's Hong Kong University's art students, you can recruit as many as you can for me.

  I remember when you were in school, didn't you know Mrs. Xu Siqi from the art department very well? You go to her, and if she's willing to come forward, you don't even have to advertise.

  If you can pull her over, I believe she will come forward at that time, not to mention this class of art students, even our class she can help you. "

   Hearing that Yang Chen was going to wipe out all the art students from the two fields of Xiangjiang University, Xue Yufei's mind was messed up. She originally thought that Yang Chen wanted her to recruit art students to train fashion designers.

   But now, it seems that this is not the case at all, so Xue Yufei couldn't help reminding: "But, Chen, Sister Siqi, she is studying comics. If you let her switch to clothing design, will she be willing?"

  Yang Chen said: "Who said I called her here to make her change to clothing design, I'm not stupid, I have nothing to do to buy a printing factory, just to print clothing magazines for Xue's industry."

   Ignoring the big white eyes that Xue Yufei immediately threw over, Yang Chen took her hand, patted his thigh, and motioned her to sit on his lap.

   "You just said that the Hong Kong comics industry is very prosperous now, and I asked you to recruit art students in order to enter the comics industry.

   In the future, Xue's clothing is not only for women, men and children need to enter.

   Men aside, can we not make clothes like children too monotonous? Various cartoon designs, in fact, comics can complement each other with it..."

To be honest, in Yang Chen's eyes, the most profitable comic book industry is not those villain books. Even if a comic sells hundreds of millions of sales, it still takes many years. Some comic books are serialized for more than ten years. .

   On average, how much money does a comic book make in a year?

   That slight profit, to be honest, Yang Chen really doesn't look down on it.

   He is interested in the comics peripheral industry, and a series of derivative products such as movies, games, toys, clothing, etc. derived from comics are the most profitable.

  According to the data, the animation and games derived from comics in later generations of RB, just these two things, have an annual turnover of more than 9 billion US dollars, which is infinitely close to 10 billion US dollars.

   RB's later comic culture is very developed. According to a survey by RB Mitsubishi Research Institute, 87% of RB people like comics, and 84% of them own comic character models and other related items.

  RB animation industry is the third largest industry in RB, and the animation industry accounts for more than ten percent of RB GDP.

  According to the data released by the RB Trade Promotion Association, the total revenue of RB's cartoons and related products sold to the United States in 2003 was 4.359 billion US dollars, which was four times the total revenue of RB's steel exports to the United States.

   A little cartoon is several times more than a country's important real pillar economy industry. How terrifying is this?

   And RB's comics industry is this time period. Since the 1980s and 1990s, a complete industrial chain has gradually formed, which has promoted the development of the RB economy.

  Little comics, it can not only carry out cultural invasion of a country, but also carry out economic plunder.

   This kind of spiritual consumption has almost no substantive payment.

   In the 1980s and 1990s, it was the beginning of the peak of RB comics. Many popular comics in later generations were basically ignited during these two times.

  Cultural invasion is sometimes more terrifying than economic invasion.

   And at this time, the RB government has enacted a series of foreign cultural invasions.

  In order to expand the international sales and influence of comics products and increase the spread of RB culture, the RB government and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government are implementing policies to support and support the RB comics industry.

The   RB government has cultivated it not only as an important export industry, but also as an independent culture.

   has given great support and assistance in policy, funding and organization.

The RB government spends huge sums of money every year to buy the broadcasting and publishing rights of its products from producers and distributors, and provides these purchased animations and comics to those developing countries who cannot afford to spend huge sums of money to buy them free of charge, so that their audiences can enjoy And readers have the opportunity to enjoy RB animation and manga.

The move of the   RB government not only has the purpose of promoting economic development, but also tries to promote RB culture and certain political purposes overseas through the comic industry.
