Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

After having breakfast at the hotel, after waiting for about 15 minutes, I saw Xiao Jiade come over. Seeing Bao Zixuan, Xiao Jiade said apologetically, "I'm sorry, there is a traffic jam on the road, so Bao Sheng has to wait for a long time. It won't happen next time."

Bao Zixuan: "It's okay, I just finished breakfast, let's go now! You have an appointment with each other!"

Xiao Jiade: "Yes, please rest assured Baosheng, everything has been communicated."

Actually, it's no wonder that Xiao Jiade is nervous. Since he took over the legal counsel of Heiyun Company, his biggest income has been brought to him by Heiyun Company. 70% of the current workload is from Heiyun Company's business. And he is ready to go out and do it alone, and at this time, he can't lose the big customer of Heiyun.

Take Peng Yifei and Jackson-Jones to the car arranged by the hotel. As for Thomas Marr and Michal last night, he probably wouldn't be able to get up without noon.

Bao Zixuan had already arranged for Xiao Jiade to buy the copyright of a cartoon, and he was determined to win the copyright that would drive hundreds of billions of dollars in the market. The place Bao Zixuan is going now is RB Tomei Co., Ltd. The purpose of his trip is to buy out the copyright of the Autobot War launched by Tomei in 1963. He wants to learn Hasbro to bring this animation and toy to the market, and even the toy's photo model has already begun to be drawn.

In his previous life, as a polytechnic bachelor, Transformers was his favorite work, and he bought limited editions of each toy. All the parts have been disassembled. Before, there was no contact with Tomei because he did not have the production capacity, but now he has the most advanced small CNC machine tool in the world, so he can make an acquisition request like Tomei.

Now Tomei is just a small company. Although it was established in 1924, it does not have much influence in RB. It may be somewhat famous in the industry, but it does not have the production capacity of toys. Xiao Jiade has already asked Xiao Jiade to contact the president of the other party. He does not reject the assignment of copyright, after all, it is useless in his hands.

Tomei is located in a relatively remote district in Tokyo. There are currently less than 100 employees, most of whom are painters engaged in comics and animation production. Seeing the orderly work of the employees in the small company, Bao Zixuan believes that at least the corporate culture is still good. .

In the conference room, Xiao Jiade introduced the two of them respectively. The president of Tomei Co., Ltd. is Aso Forty-eight. Hearing this name, you know that his father was born at the age of forty-eight years, and he happens to be 48 years old this year.

Forty-eight Aso is not very tall, but it is about 170 centimeters. The hair on his head is a little bald, he is wearing a black suit, and he is dressed meticulously. Looking at this young man who is younger than his own son, he is actually the boss of the parent company of the two best games on the market. It seems that he needs to give his children more exercise. Opportunity.

Aso Forty-eight: "Welcome Baosang to Tomei Co., Ltd. The achievements you have achieved now make those of us who are guarding the company's lack of development ashamed!"

Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Aso is a senior in the business class. There are many things that juniors need to learn. I just thought of a good idea. You must know the purpose of my visit this time. I don't know what Heiyun has to pay. What a great price to sell me the rights to Autobot Wars."

Aso Forty-Eight didn't expect that Bao Zixuan was such an impatient person. It seemed that he couldn't want to negotiate with him like some old foxes. Said: "It is not impossible to buy the copyright. I hope that Heiyun can pay 2 million US dollars, and 10% of the profits on the derivative products of Autobot Wars will belong to Domei."

Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Aso believes that the copyright of a cartoon made in 1963 is worth 2 million US dollars, and it requires 10% additional income. The price is 500,000 US dollars. After all, I have to make money. I just established a comic studio. , I'm going to adapt a few old cartoons. After all, I don't have as many talents as Duomei, I just want to rush to open the market. I can still buy a robot cat without an Autobot, and it is estimated that 5 million US dollars is enough. I am rich , but my money didn't come from the wind either."

Actually, why did Bao Zixuan start now? It is because this time is the best opportunity. If you miss it, you will have to wait until 1984 according to the historical trajectory. Now, the ratings of several consecutive cartoons of Tomei are very poor, and it is the time when you need cash the most.

Aso Forty-eight looked at Bao Zixuan's performance and knew that this talented young man was not good at negotiating, maybe he really just proved himself as he said. Said: "$3 million, I don't want any extra income, you have nothing to do with Dome if you pay $3 million for the Autobot War."

This is a sky-high price. The $3 million is almost the value of his entire company, but Bao Zixuan didn't want to waste time with him. He said, "Yes, lawyer Xiao prepares the contract." After that, he wrote a check from Kyoto Bank for $3 million.

Seeing that Bao Zixuan is so refreshing, it is still better to do business with young people, and only decide according to his own preferences. It seems that in the future, he will still cooperate with these young and rich bosses. Last time, he was an old guy who bought the copyright of his comics. Only willing to pay 1 million yen, play it by yourself!

When Xiao Jiade heard that Bao Zixuan agreed, he had no choice but to prepare the contract according to the boss's request. In fact, according to Xiao Jiade's idea, it is necessary to cool the other party for a while. Now it seems that his role is not very big! In fact, Bao Zixuan was also shocked by the hundreds of billions of products in the previous life. Even if Duomei offered $100 million with dividends, he would have won it without hesitation. This may also be the bad side of transmigrators.

After the two parties signed the contract, Aso Forty-Eight asked someone to take out all the manuscripts, comics, and animations about the Autobot War, and Bao Zixuan handed the check to the other party. Since then, the Transformers series has officially returned to the Black Cloud Company. At that time, Aso thought that he had made the most cost-effective business in his life. Later, it was written as a negative textbook by countless colleges and universities and entered the economics textbook.

After leaving Tomei Company, Xiao Jiade wanted to say that it was a bit expensive, but seeing Bao Zixuan happy didn't break his mood. Instead, Bao Zixuan said to him, "You did a good job. Attorney Xiao has worked hard, but you have to meet someone with me this afternoon."

It was the same cafe where I met Miyamoto Hat and Yokoi Junhei last time. The two people sat facing each other and chatted. They mainly talked about their understanding of manga and how to make it. That's right, one of the two people is Bao Zixuan, the boss of Heiyun Company, and the other is Hayao Miyazaki, the famous manga master of RB.

Born in 1941, Hayao Miyazaki is 36 years old this year. He is a progressive person from RB. This young man from a wealthy family is not used to many things that are rich and inhumane. He still resolutely gives up the protection of his family and decides to open up himself in the field of comics. Start by affecting children and then affect the world.

Bao Zixuan, who knows what kind of person Miyazaki is, is handy when chatting, making the two of them like friends for many years.

Hayao Miyazaki: "I didn't expect Bao Sang to match many of my ideas so well. If it wasn't for me who had never talked to anyone, I would have thought you had arranged a spy by my side!"

Bao Zixuan: "This is just my personal opinion. It's nothing. We just think that children can enrich their knowledge and experience from childhood, and then cultivate their friendly and kind character."

Hayao Miyazaki: "I understand your purpose, but I want to know what treatment and how much rights I have in the new comic company."

Bao Zixuan: "Your treatment and rights are determined by you, not me. I fully believe in your strength, and treatment is the best way to reflect your strength."

Hayao Miyazaki: "I want to own 30% of Black Cloud Comics, and I have the final say. You must not interfere with the company's operations. For this, I can invest 10% in cash and the rest in technology. The symbol of the month is 1 yen."

Bao Zixuan: "No." Hearing this, Hayao Miyazaki felt a little unhappy, didn't this kid ask him to make conditions! Why did it change so quickly! It's a shame that he still takes him as a confidant. But what happened next made him a little embarrassed. Then he said: "You can't reduce the salary of 10 million yen per month, otherwise we will not be able to set other people's salary standards. In addition, I hope you will complete the comics I arranged as required, which is in line with the entire company. The fundamentals of operations can’t be out of touch with you. After all, we have to develop a lot of derivative toys.”

"But all the products licensed to Heiyun Factory by the comics are 10% of the sales to the comics company. After all, I still have a large number of workers to support in Xiangjiang. Only in this way can your comics compete with our existing copyrights on a fair basis. There will be no conflict."

In this way, the two of them held their hands together. After 20 years, Hayao Miyazaki was already in the top 100 richest people on the Forbes list, and he still felt a little bit of a trap at that time.
