Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 111: Think carefully
The straight-line distance (flight route) between Hong Kong Island and Wanbei is about 700 kilometers. According to the flight speed of airplanes in this era, the flight time is about one and a half hours.

This means that you may have just gotten on the plane and before you have even had time to straighten your legs, it’s time to think about getting off the plane!
This was the case for Cai Zhizhong. Considering that he spent a lot of time flying, he did not choose to fly in first class or business class. Instead, he did not make special arrangements and insisted on flying in economy class like the other seven or eight ordinary employees of Shenlong Company.

Of course, there is another problem here, and that is the existence of Shi Nansheng.

"I'm sorry, Director Shi, we made you travel in economy class with us on this business trip!"

"It doesn't matter, I also know that your company's funds are tight at the moment, so there's nothing wrong with just sitting around occasionally!"

For Shi Nansheng, who was born into a wealthy family, the narrow economy class cabin was indeed not as spacious and comfortable as the first class cabin. But seeing Cai Zhizhong's apologetic apology to him, there was no way Shi Nansheng could go to the first class cabin alone.

After all, she is not an unruly and willful "princess". As a career-minded woman, she still knows what she should do, what she can do, and how to do it.

This is a very rare thing for a girl!
After all, some little fairies who are already in their 40s and [-]s may not be able to become parents.

"If you're bored, I have comic books here that you can read?"

As he spoke, Cai Zhizhong took out the latest issue of "Two-dimensional Youth Weekly" from the bag beside him, which he bought at the airport today!

Nowadays, at the airport on Hong Kong Island, you can not only buy various comic magazines from Two-dimensional, but also various toys from DreamWorks. Many tourists coming to Hong Kong will buy a Pikachu doll at the airport before leaving.

Although these people have never watched the anime, they can't stand how cute Pikachu looks!It also has the characteristics of Hong Kong Island, so I just bought it for my children to play with.

"It's no use, I have one too!"

What surprised Cai Zhizhong was that after Shi Nansheng finished speaking, he actually took out a comic from his bag, which was a stand-alone volume of "Gundam".

"Uh, why are you looking at...this?"

It's not strange for girls to read comics, but it's very strange to read "Gundam".

Mechas are a man’s romance, and a woman’s romance is bags and clothes!Not those big iron cans.

"This belongs to my boyfriend. He said this comic is very good, so I borrowed it to read it!"

"Director Xu also likes to read comics?"

Although Cai Zhizhong has never met Tsui Hark, he has heard of his name.

"I like it very much, but my favorite is Mr. Li's work."

"Yes, I also admire him in terms of comics!"

Speaking of this, Cai Zhizhong was very emotional.

I still remember that when he first met Li Wannian, he didn't believe that the young man in front of him had such talent.

At that time, he just wanted to attract investment for the company, but unfortunately he encountered obstacles everywhere. Thanks to Li Wannian's intervention, his company was able to proceed smoothly.

But at that time, he never thought that the other party would become his boss.

In the past two years of working together, as Cai Zhizhong gradually got to know Li Wannian, Cai Zhizhong truly admired Li Wannian. Cai Zhizhong did not show any disrespect to Li Wannian because of the large age gap.

The two stopped chatting after that. Cai Zhizhong opened the latest issue of "Two-dimensional Youth Weekly" and saw Li Wannian's new work "Dragon Ball".

As a cartoonist, Cai Zhizhong can clearly see from his professional level that Li Wannian's profound skills, character expressions, movements, narrative rhythm, and storyboards are almost impeccable.

However, he also thought the same as many editors at the magazine: Can the market accept such a work?

However, unlike the editor of the magazine, after seeing so many impossibilities of Li Wannian, he actually felt that there might be a deeper meaning that he had not seen, rather than Li Wannian's problem.In this way, after he carefully speculated for an hour, the cartoon did not produce any results, and the plane landed at Benbei International Airport very smoothly.

Next month, this airport will be renamed Songshan Airport, and international flights will be transferred to the newly built Chiang Kai-shek Airport, which will later be Taoyuan Airport.

So when Cai Zhizhong showed up at the T2 terminal with Shi Nansheng and others, they found that the place was in a mess, as if they were at a large-scale demolition site.

Because even if the international flights are transferred, the terminal will also cease to be used as an airport exhibition hall.

Except for the terminal, the accompanying employees who were following Cai Zhizhong basically dispersed and went back to their homes.

Only Cai Zhizhong, Shi Nansheng and one of her assistants were left.

"Manager Cai, how are you!"

However, they didn't have nowhere to go. Someone had already been waiting for them at the airport exit.

"Hello, Director Liu."

A middle-aged man in a suit, with a middle parting, and gold-rimmed glasses appeared in front of Cai Zhizhong.

This person's name is Liu Jinsheng, and he is the deputy director of the production department of China Television. This position may not be important, but the key is that his surname is Liu.

You must know that in China Television, Liu is a common surname.

The chairman of China Television is named Liu, and the general manager is named Liu. Even the woman who pressed the start button when China Television started broadcasting was also named Liu.

Cai Zhizhong didn't know which hilltop the deputy director came from, but he knew very well that no matter which hilltop he came from, he was a big shot and could determine the outcome of his trip.

They may not accomplish anything, but it's easy to do bad things!
Therefore, it is natural to be polite.

What Cai Zhizhong didn't expect was that Director Liu opposite him was also very polite to him, even a little too polite.

"Manager Cai is my light, Wanwan, and brings glory to me in the Chinese world!"

"Me? Glory?" Now it was Cai Zhizhong's turn to be dumbfounded. When had he ever done these things?
"Of course! Let's get in the car and talk, then don't stand here!"

In this way, a group of people got into the Audi car with a strong government atmosphere, started the car, and drove towards the hotel.

After listening to Director Liu's explanation on the way, Cai Zhizhong understood what was going on?

It turns out that the popularity of animation exported to Southeast Asia has not only spread widely among Chinese in Southeast Asia, but has even been accepted by children of other ethnic groups.

In particular, "Pokémon" even won a face-to-face PK with Neon Animation on a Malaysian TV station.

Now, the company responsible for producing this animation and Cai Zhizhong, the general manager of the company, have come into the eyes of interested people.

After understanding these situations, Cai Zhizhong felt very guilty. He knew very well that the reason why Shenlong Company's animation could achieve such success in Southeast Asia was due to Li Wannian's talent, not himself.

Even Cai Zhizhong has no doubt that even if Shenlong Company replaces him, Shenlong Company can still succeed.

"Director Liu is so commendable. The success of our company's animation is mainly due to the excellent comics themselves and the joint efforts of everyone in the company. I only played a small and insignificant role in it!"

"Humble, so humble! Navigating the sea depends on the helmsman. No matter how good the team is, without a good leader, how can it achieve good results?"

Director Liu said to Cai Zhizhong with a smile, but his eyes were full of non-committal affirmation.
