I just want to draw cartoons quietly

"This matter seems to have some eyebrows!"

Chu Yu's heart beat faster when he heard this.

After getting along with Li Xi a few times, Chu Yu also knows Li Xi's style of handling things. If she can use the word eyebrows to describe this matter, it means that this matter is almost inseparable.

"What's the situation now...?" Chu Yu suppressed the excitement in his heart.

"A few days ago, I submitted the work of Unknown Huaming to Nine Star Animation Production Company..."

Nine stars!

Chu Yu's expression froze. Of course he had heard of this company. Apart from his identity as a cartoonist, he was also a veteran anime fan.

In Longguo, Jiuxing, Dakai, Longyue... the works of these animation production companies can be said to have accompanied the childhood of Chuyu's generation of comic fans.

"Do they...have ideas for the animation of unheard names?" Chu Yu took a deep breath.

"Almost!" Li Xi nodded.

"Originally, it was impossible to decide this kind of thing so quickly. A few days ago, I showed your work to a producer of Jiuxing, and he was very satisfied on the spot...but he said Well, he doesn't have the final decision on this kind of thing, and the work has to be shown to the leader..."

"However, it seems that the senior officials of Nine Stars are also very interested in your work..."

"It's only been a few days, and Jiuxing has already called me back, inviting you to go to Jiuxing Comic Company to discuss this matter this Sunday!"

"Sunday...is it two days later?" Chu Yu nodded.

"That's no problem."

"Of course, all of this is on the premise that you can complete your comic draft." Li Xi said.

"These matters between you and Jiuxing do not belong to the scope of my work as the editor of Xuangui, but helping you complete these trivial matters as soon as possible will also help you return to the creation of comics as soon as possible. In order for you to complete the cooperation with Jiuxing as soon as possible, after two days , let me go with you!" Li Xi looked at Chu Yu.

"Understood!" Chu Yu nodded.

"Don't worry about the manga draft. There is still such a long time before the deadline for the fourth chapter you mentioned, but I am basically finishing the fourth chapter by myself."

.......

Two days later, Sunday!

Li Xi changed his usual professional attire into a casual attire.

The hair that is tied up on weekdays is also scattered behind the shoulders.

In Li Xi's car, Chu Yu followed her to Jiuxing Animation Production Company.

Li Xi led Chu Yu straight in, and the staff inside did not stop her. Soon, the two came to an office.

Li Xi originally wanted to push the door open and go in, but after thinking about it, she stepped aside and signaled to Chu Yu to go in first.

After all, it was Chu Yu who was invited, if she did everything, where would Chu Yu be?

Taking a deep breath, Chu Yu gently knocked on the office door.

"Please come in!"

Chu Yu pushed the door open and entered.

Upon entering, it is a clean and tidy house.

The interior is simple, a few lockers, and a desk.

Across the table was a middle-aged man in his 30s, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, trousers and a shirt, and looked extremely energetic.

"Teacher Shuixin, right! Hello..."

"I am the animation producer of Jiuxing Animation Company, my name is Huang Ming!"

Seeing Chu Yu coming in, Huang Ming stood up, walked up to Chu Yu and shook hands with him.

"Hello, Shui Xin is just my comic pen name, my real name is Chu Yu, you can just call me Chu Yu!" Chu Yu Wannian squeezed out a smile on his indifferent face.

No matter what, face should be given to the other party.

"That's fine, then I'll just call you Chu Yu, it's always Teacher Teacher, I feel a little strange!" Huang Ming laughed.

Chu Yu, Li Xi, and Huang Ming quickly took their seats without talking nonsense.

The assistant poured a cup of tea for each of the three and then left, closing the office door.

"Since Chu Yu came to our Jiuxing today...then you must know something about it."

"Then I won't play around anymore..."

"Your submission has not been well-known. After reading it in the past few days, the relevant personnel of the animation company related to this project all agree that this work is very suitable for our requirements. It is one of the submissions we have received now. The one that most meets the requirements..." Huang Ming said at this moment, staring at Chu Yu.

"It's actually very simple to invite you here today. I just want to discuss with you the cost and signing of the animation adaptation of related works."

so direct?

Chu Yu was taken aback for a moment.

That's the deal?

This is animation!

No matter how many cartoonists draw cartoons for a lifetime, they may not have this opportunity!

"Uh, you...you please say it!"

"Okay, I'll just say it!"

Huang Ming said in a deep voice, "The highest price our society can offer is 70 Dragon National Coins! As the animation adaptation rights of this work."

70 million!

When Chu Yu heard this, he had no idea about this number in his heart.

In Japan in a parallel time and space, for conventional manga anime or light novel adaptation animation, the animation adaptation fee paid to the author is generally 20 to [-] yen per episode.

In conversion, it is only [-] to [-] RMB per episode.

In the case of Longguo, due to the large population and the increase in the audience, this will also lead to an increase in the flow of works, and the price of adaptations will also increase. But in comparison, the price of each episode is usually [-] to [-] Longguo currency.

To be honest, the price Huang Ming offered was based on the price of adapting some well-known works.

After all, it is easy to fool Chu Yu, but difficult to fool Li Xi, so Huang Ming is also very straightforward.

Chu Yu looked at Li Xi...

He doesn't understand this thing at all, and he hasn't studied it before.

"140 million." Li Xi also understood what Chu Yu meant, and said.

"It's impossible!" Huang Ming smiled.

"Judging from the content of the name draft given by Chu Yu, it will be an animation of about ten episodes."

"At this price, it's almost the cost of an adaptation of a well-known work on the market."

"You know, this work has never been serialized in any periodicals before. It can be said that it is completely unpopular. The price of 70 yuan is also the reason why our company sees Chu Yu as the winner of the Dragon Star Award. In fact, it was given in consideration of the number of fans of his works in various parts of the Dragon Kingdom."

"Huang Ming, it's fine to fool others with your words, do you think it will work in front of me?" Li Xi sneered.

"The quality of this work is obvious to all. There are indeed many famous works on the market, but the adaptation of those works into animation may not be very good, and it does not meet your company's requirements for soliciting contributions."

"And this work does not have the original manga, which means that until the end of the animation, no one will know the story of the tears drawn in the end. After the animation starts, the audience's reaction will be more obvious, and there will be no spoilers. In comparison, I think this is the advantage of this work."

"And aside from these, the price is simply based on the quality of this work. I don't think it is inferior to the so-called popular works in the world..."

Li Xi's words were also nonsense, purely forceful, but they did make some sense.

It's hard for Huang Ming to refute Li Xi for a while.

"75?" Huang Ming was silent for a while.

He also understood Li Xi very well, and knew that this woman was the type of a vegetable market aunt, and her favorite thing was to bargain, so he deliberately lowered the price at the beginning, giving Li Xi some room for bargaining.

"140 million!" Li Xi didn't budge.

"80 million!"

"I said it, 140 million!" Li Xi's tone did not waver.

"Okay, okay, 100 million Dragon National Coins, this is our Nine Star's psychological bottom line, if you don't agree, forget it!" Huang Ming was a little angry, this woman didn't play cards according to the routine at all.

Shouldn't it be my eighty, your one hundred and two, my ninety, your one hundred one?

Why do I let go, and you don't let go at all?

Chapter 1 Discussion II

"One million and eighty thousand! This is our bottom line!"

Li Xi was not swayed by Huang Ming's words at all, but now, her offer has dropped by more than 30 yuan.

It was only 110 lower than Huang Ming's real psychological price of [-] million.

this woman?Could it be the roundworm in my stomach?

Huang Ming felt very aggrieved, he just lost his composure for a while, this woman immediately estimated his psychological bottom line, and offered [-] yuan to comfort him symbolically?

"Deal!" Huang Ming said directly

Li Xi looked at Chu Yu and signaled him to express his opinion.

"Um, I understand, no problem!" Chu Yu was completely surrounded.

With just a few words from the two of them, the price is more than 30 yuan higher, which is higher than Chu Yu's income from serializing Rurouni Kenshin's Reminiscences in Los Angeles!

Without Li Xi, Chu Yu himself would definitely bargain, but it is estimated that it can be raised to 80 and he should be satisfied.

After all, it's just an unnamed animation adaptation right, so Chu Yu is also satisfied with such an income.

Compared with the economic benefits brought by the animation of this work, the fame and world point benefits brought by the animation of a work are what Chu Yu likes.

For comic works, the direct benefits of animation are often not high, but animation can drive the sales of comics to soar, which is the biggest source of income for cartoonists.

But it's a chicken-and-egg question.

Judging from Chu Yu's current situation, it is impossible to serialize unheard flower names in journals of the level of Shuiyuan.

The work of Unheard Huaming may gain some popularity if it is serialized in other journals, but it is really difficult to meet the animation standard.

Instead of this, Chu Yu might as well let this work directly take this opportunity to animate it, and wait until the popularity of this work is high, and then find a way to draw comics and issue a booklet.

Therefore, Chu Yu is not very interested in the copyright benefits of animation.

As long as it fits the market conditions.

"I agree with the price offered by your company!" Chu Yu said in a deep voice.

Just as this project was born casually, the animation of Unheard Huaming's work was settled when three direct and straightforward people sat in this small office and negotiated in a few words.

There is no such thing as first meeting, second meeting, final negotiation.

After printing out the contract, Chu Yu looked at the contract and signed it directly.

This also means.

In the next four months, the animation of Unheard Huaming is officially on the agenda. In February next year, the first animation work in Chu Yu's life will be broadcast soon.

"Congratulations to the host, the unheard Hana is officially animated on this plane, and the host is rewarded with the top-level ed "secretbase~everything you gave me~" on the original earth plane of the unheard Hana, and the unlocking of the unheard Hana Earth in the system space The right to watch the original animation of the plane!"

"What the hell is this?" Chu Yu was stunned when he heard this.

At the same time, a stream of information poured in.

Consciousness was confused at first, and then he became sober. At this time, Chu Yu understood the information about the work of Unheard Huaming...  

It turns out that this work is basically an animation work on the earth plane.

It's just changed by the system, and it's turned into anime!

It just so happened that Chu Yu also made this work animated in the Dragon Kingdom, which triggered the hidden conditions of the system, so in order to make this work spread better in the Dragon Kingdom, the system specially gave away the original animation to everyone The god of praise gave Chu Yu.

As for whether Chu Yu uses it or not, and whether he has the ability to restore this ed to the unheard animation of this world, that is not something the system can consider.

Chu Yu's stunned look was just a brief moment in the eyes of Huang Ming and Li Xi.

But Chu Yu's mood changed very quickly, neither of them realized that something was wrong with Chu Yu.

"Since the contract is signed, it means that I have formally established a cooperative relationship with Jiuxing!"

"But for Producer Huang, I have a proposal..."
