Chapter 662: Same Routine! Great Harvest!!

A week later.

April 6, 1981.

Yang Ming spent a week relaxing at the private hot spring resort of the Ikeda family.

Mostly, he spent the time soaking in hot springs and admiring cherry blossoms.

When Yang Ming left by car, Ikeda Hisahisa and the staff here were very enthusiastic to see Yang Ming and others to the car.

"Sir Yang, welcome back next time."

Next time?

I'm afraid I don't know when it will be.

Yang Ming and others took the car back to the Setagaya villa area.

When he returned here, Yang Ming put his energy back on the inspection work.

Although Yang Ming didn't need to go out for inspection, the members of the inspection team who followed him this time have been giving feedback on relevant news.

Among them, Nakanishi Akio did a good job in the field of games.

In addition to establishing a strategic game alliance as required by Yang Ming, he also pulled the relevant game companies and industrial companies in Japan into this industrial chain, so that these companies can have soup to drink, and not disrupt the entire game market.

In addition, Nakanishi Akio and the members of the inspection team kept digging out some potential game talents to go to the headquarters of Xiangjiang Empire Game Company to work.

As for comics.

Overall, the development of comics in Japan is becoming more and more mature.

From comic authors submitting their works, to comic editors, comic studios or comic publishers, to comics being released and listed, adapted into comic novels, animation, derivatives, etc.

When Lan Shaojun was in Hong Kong, she didn't think so much. Now that she has come to Japan, she really knows that this has gradually formed a huge comic-related industry chain.

Even though the two-dimensional companies can provide a steady stream of excellent comics, they are still not as good as Japan in terms of turning them into derivatives.

Lan Shaojun refers to the market in Japan. She believes that in addition to digging some talents to Hong Kong, Hong Kong should also focus on cultivating its own talents.

Including comics, animation, voice actors, etc.

Even, set up your own related universities.

For example, Hong Kong Academy of Fine Arts.

This morning.

When Lan Shaojun submitted the information and suggestions she received from the market to Yang Ming, Yang Ming found that Lan Shaojun's suggestions were still very good.

Like Xu Qingsheng now, he acquired a local TV station in Japan a long time ago. However, this local TV station in Japan has a limited audience, and its influence and radiation are limited.

This also limits the development of this TV station.

Nowadays, the excellent comics of the two-dimensional company cannot be transformed from comics to animation, and naturally cannot be transformed into more derivatives on the market.

Now Lan Shaojun suggested that the two-dimensional company and the five major private TV stations in Japan, or cooperate with one of the TV stations alone, to adapt the comics into animation and broadcast them on these TV stations.

However, how to cooperate with these TV stations requires both parties to discuss.

In other words, Yang Ming wanted to promote his comics in Japan by acquiring the local TV stations in Japan, but in fact this path has failed, and he had to cooperate with the five major private TV stations in Japan.

Like Japan TV, TBS, Asahi TV, Fuji TV, Tokyo TV, etc., historically, the cooperation between these five TV stations and the three major publishers in Japan in comic adaptation has been very successful.

In other words, it is impossible for the two-dimensional company to not give them a share of the pie, and to take over the comics market in Japan.

Yang Ming thought of the Nintendo strategic alliance.

He suddenly thought, since games are feasible, why can't comics be feasible?

Historically, Nintendo's movies with "Super Mario" as the protagonist have been popular all over the United States, creating huge profits for the film company.

A large number of magazines, books, audio-visual products, even notebooks, T-shirts, tea cups, oatmeal, puzzle toys, dolls, wallpapers, etc. are all labeled with the protagonists of Nintendo games.

Many TV programs and videotape programs have used Nintendo games as content or background.

In the children's TV programs of the United States, the number of cartoons based on Nintendo's game rules or with its protagonist as the background far exceeds any other children's TV programs.

In other words, Yang Ming used the strategy in the game to deal with other game industries in Japan, so he could also use this method in the comics industry.

After Yang Ming excluded Kodansha, Shogakukan, and Shueisha, he could cooperate with companies related to the comics industry, and even publishers, including major TV stations in Japan.

These companies followed to drink soup, and the Empire Group and the two-dimensional company ate meat.

Over time, a comic-related industry chain dominated by two-dimensional companies will be formed.

Even if those companies know there is a problem, there is nothing they can do, because now two-dimensional companies can continuously provide the best comic products.

At the beginning, Yang Ming wanted to make Hong Kong the world's comic capital. However, Hong Kong's comic market is limited, and the highest sales volume of Hong Kong's own weekly comics is only 200,000 copies.

In Japan, the sales volume has exceeded 10 million copies, which is simply incomparable.

As for China, Yang Ming has also considered cooperating with China. At present, there are no conditions in China for this aspect, and there may be a possibility of cooperation after the 1990s.

Games, comics, and even derivatives of games and comics, etc., isn't this to make the two-dimensional company the world's largest comprehensive entertainment company?

Yang Ming found that it is indeed possible.

From the beginning to the end, Yang Ming still wanted to put the most core things in his base camp, Hong Kong.

In addition to the investigation and feedback of comics.

Today, the executives of Hong Kong Integrated Circuit Manufacturing Company were shocked when they inspected related semiconductor companies in Japan.

On the one hand, in addition to introducing technology and talents in this area from Japan, they also felt that Hong Kong still had to rely on itself to cultivate more talents.

In other words, they believed that the boss Sir Yang was able to lay out the Hong Kong Science Park and Hong Kong Integrated Circuit Manufacturing Company in advance, which actually exceeded the vision of many people.

. . .

April 25, 1981.

Setagaya Villa.

Except for Nakanishi Akio, Xu Qingsheng, Lan Shaojun and others, the main leaders of this inspection team are here.

In the past three months, the inspection in Japan has really been fruitful.

Except for Xu Qingsheng who knew that the boss had asked him to layout and enter the real estate industry in Japan, others have been busy with their own affairs during this period.

"Boss, now except for Nintendo, all other game companies in Japan have joined our game alliance." Nakanishi Akio said.

"Boss, I have been trying to recruit Shigeru Miyamoto for a long time, but I haven't found him yet. In addition, Hiroshi Yamauchi of Nintendo has been asking to join our game alliance, but we asked Gunpei Yokoi to join our Empire Game Company, but Hiroshi Yamauchi refused." Xu Qingsheng said on the side.

In Yang Ming's view, whether or not to recruit Shigeru Miyamoto is not important to him now. He just doesn't want to bring Nintendo in, which is a very euphemistic reason for refusal.

If Hiroshi Yamauchi is really willing to give up Shigeru Miyamoto and Gunpei Yokoi, that would be terrifying.

Such people may really do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.
