Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

On the second day, Jiuding Securities Company’s holding of the shares of Cheung Kong Group was announced, which naturally caused a heated discussion in the Hong Kong media. Xia Yu also asked people to make an explanation in the “Jiuding Daily”, indicating that he was not interested in Cheung Kong. The group is optimistic, and it will sell well to Li Chaoren.

As Xia Yu expected, the stock price of Cheung Kong Industrial Group rose in response!

With the gift of rising stock prices, when Xia Yu attended the board meeting of Cheung Kong Industrial Group in the afternoon, all shareholders including Li Chaoren expressed a warm welcome to Xia Yu's arrival at the meeting.

Instead, Xia Yu was looking forward to the interview tomorrow.

Because yesterday afternoon, Korn Ferry notified Xia Yu again that it had already found a candidate for the general manager of an animation company. This time there was only one person. Robert Joyce kept explaining to Xia Yu, hoping that Xia Yu would understand that he Will try to find other candidates.

Xia Yu also understands him. After all, it is really hard to find talents in the comics industry.

However, Robert Joyce provided the resume, and Xia Yu had some expectations after reading it. This person did meet his requirements.

Ma Tengdong, male, 35 years old, loves comics very much. He has been in the comics industry for 15 years. Now he is the head of a department in Shueisha, an island country. According to the investigation by Korn Ferry, he is the highest known in the island country's comics industry. of a Chinese.

Korn Ferry's investigation report and Ma Tengdong's resume show that he has worked in comic creation, distribution, operation, peripheral sales and other departments, and he has achieved good results, and he is fully capable of serving as the head of a comic company.

If the situation is true, then Ma Tengdong is very suitable to serve as the general manager of Jiuding Animation Co., Ltd.!

It's just that Xia Yu was a little curious. Why did Ma Tengdong want to leave? Is it really as stated in the situation analysis report provided by Korn Ferry, that he was excluded from Shuyingshe and had no hope of promotion?

Or other reasons?

Ma Tengdong did not write it in his resume, so he could only ask in detail during the interview.

However, Xia Yu has already made an appointment with Ma Tengdong for an interview tomorrow morning. Xia Yu is still set at the memory cafe, which is the one who interviewed Gavin Peter.

...

Early the next morning, Xia Yu came to the cafe again, and after booking a box, he waited for Ma Tengdong's arrival.

Ma Tengdong didn't let Xia Yu wait any longer.

Came on time.

After the greeting, the interview began.

Xia Yu first asked him to introduce himself and show his advantages to prove that he really possesses the abilities described in his resume.

Ma Tengdong was very confident. After nodding to Xia Yu, he started to introduce himself with a smile.

"My name is Ma Tengdong..."

Listening to Ma Tengdong's self-introduction, Xia Yu nodded from time to time, and occasionally asked questions to test him.

Whether a person has the ability or not basically depends on his understanding of that aspect.

In front of Xia Yu, Ma Tengdong detailed his views on the comics industry and his understanding of the various functional departments of the comics company.

After some understanding, Xia Yu showed a satisfied smile. Ma Tengdong is indeed talented and practical, and has a very comprehensive ability. He is indeed capable of serving as the general manager of Jiuding Animation Co., Ltd.

After learning about Ma Tengdong's ability, Xia Yu's doubts became even stronger. He didn't believe that the executives of Shueisha were fools and could not see Ma Tengdong's ability.

"Mr. Ma, the last question, please tell me why you don't want to continue working in Shueisha, but come to our new company?"

Xia Yu asked, and after speaking, he looked closely at Ma Tengdong and observed his expression.

A trace of resentment flashed in Ma Tengdong's eyes, and he said unwillingly: "Because I offended a senior executive of Shueisha, his father had participated in the invasion of China and was also an officer. He was very hostile to the Chinese. There was a conflict and I offended him, that is, because my ability was valued by several other high-level executives, otherwise I would have been kicked out long ago, but even if I wasn’t kicked out, I would have been transferred from the core creative department.”

"I had planned to leave before, but I didn't have the right opportunity. For the sake of my family, I had to stay there until someone from Korn Ferry found me. After getting to know your company, I'm here! "

Xia Yu's expression did not change, but he suddenly realized that this was the reason.

But thinking of the right-wing executives of Shueisha in Ma Tengdong's mouth, a cold light flashed in Xia Yu's eyes. In this way, he would have no psychological burden if he copied Shueisha's comics.

"Our company's initial positioning was to hit the island country's comics market. Now you don't know our company's situation, but I look forward to one day when you lead the company to revitalize the Xiangjiang comics industry, and then rush into the island country's comics market. If you want, wait. I'll show you something later, I'm sure you won't be disappointed!"

Xia Yu looked at Ma Tengdong sincerely and said, stood up at the same time, and extended his hand to him.

Xia Yu's meaning is obvious, he was hired, now it's up to Ma Tengdong's meaning.

Hearing Xia Yu's words, Ma Tengdong recalled what he had learned about Xia Yu's strength. He nodded heavily, and secretly said that he would gamble. Anyway, if he was uncomfortable in Shueisha, he might as well take a gamble. After all, Xia Yu does have This capital entered the comics industry.

Then he held Xia Yu's hands together, and changed his words respectfully, "Thank you boss."

"Go, follow me to the company!"

After that, Xia Yu took Ma Tengdong to the station of Jiuding Animation Co., Ltd.

After signing the employment contract, Xia Yu brought Ma Tengdong to the office and took out the planning book of the "Zhiyin Manke" comic magazine, as well as the outlines and character drafts of the four comics including "Dragon Ball" and put them in his office. before.

Xia Yu wanted to let Ma Tengdong have a bottom line on the company and let him know that although the company is a new company, it definitely has a future. This is to make him return to the company as soon as possible, and at the same time make him more confident in the company. More enthusiasm for work.

As for worrying about Ma Tengdong's leaks?

Xia Yu was not worried at all, not to mention that Ma Tengdong had signed the employment contract and was already his own.

More importantly, Xia Yu had already sent someone to register the intellectual property rights of these four comics and the magazine Zhiyin Manke. It was too late for Ma Tengdong to steal ideas. Xia Yu was not afraid of others stealing them.

Ma Tengdong looked around, and his eyes lit up when he saw the detailed planning book of "Zhiyin Manke".

He is a person who knows the goods, and naturally knows the gold content of this magazine planning book. Many places make his eyes light up, and after reading it, he already has a rough judgment of a magazine planning book in his heart.

This is a very mature plan, no worse than Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump.

Then, he looked at the stack of manuscript papers below, and he saw at a glance that it was a cartoon character.

The mature and sharp style of painting made him nod secretly.

Then, he looked at the outline of the main line of the plot, and browsed it quickly. The more he looked, the more surprise in his eyes, until it turned directly into shock.

This is the complete beginning of the four comics. Not only the plot outline, but also the characters have been set. As long as the outline is expanded, the full plot can be serialized directly.

And these four comic outlines, although they are not finished comics, but with his ability, he can see some things. These four comics are no worse than Shueisha's comics. As long as they are drawn, they will definitely become popular. It depends on market feedback.

At this moment, Ma Tengdong's confidence in the empty Jiuding Animation Co., Ltd. surged.

No, it's not a shell company, because it already owns the most core things.

The core of a comic company has always been only one, and that is the work!

"Boss, whose masterpiece are these?"

Ma Tengdong looked at Xia Yu with some excitement on his face and asked.

Xia Yu smiled and said, "I wrote it, how do you feel?"

Hearing Xia Yu's words, Ma Tengdong was stunned at first, but when he saw that Xia Yu was not joking, his eyes were full of shock. He knew that Xia Yu could write novels, and Xia Yu wrote "Looking for Qin Ji", but he didn't expect the boss to actually write novels. He can also draw comics and write the planning of comic magazines. His understanding of comics is no worse than his. How can this not shock him.

After the shock, he was full of joy. He found that with such a powerful boss, the future of Jiuding Animation Co., Ltd. seemed bright.

"Work hard. When the time comes, let Jiuding Animation Co., Ltd. enter the island country's comics industry. If one day, Shueisha is pressed down, I think it will be very interesting!"

Xia Yu patted Ma Tengdong on the shoulder and said in a bewitching tone.

Ma Tengdong was indeed bewitched by Xia Yu's words, a flash of longing flashed in his eyes, looked at Xia Yu, nodded heavily, and said with determination, "Don't worry, boss, I will definitely not disappoint you!"

"I have posted the recruitment information on Jiuding Daily. You will be solely responsible for the recruitment at that time. The requirements do not need to be too high, as long as you have a certain painting skills."

"By the way, the company has no staff now. If you want to make a comic magazine and draw four more comics, you must have enough staff. You can use your contacts to poach people from the island country's comic industry."

"It is best to be Chinese. If you are an islander, you should also be an islander who has no prejudice against China and the Chinese."

"Also, do you see any cartoon trainers you know, and they also help dig them out. At that time, professional training will be given to everyone in the company. The rise of the Hong Kong cartoon industry must have a large number of relevant talents. Now train one more person, right The more beneficial we are, I hope you will pay attention to it!"

Xia Yu warned Ma Tengdong.

"Don't worry, boss, I remember it, I will not let you down!"

Ma Tengdong nodded heavily and assured.

From the boss's words, he knew the boss's ambition, and before he knew it, he felt that the burden on his shoulders was much heavier. He was not only the general manager of Jiuding Animation Co., Ltd., but also related to the rise of the Xiangjiang comics industry.

At this moment, his blood was boiling, and he was looking forward to the day when Xiangjiang Comics would be able to compete with the island country comics, or even invade the island country comics.

Although he knew it was difficult, but here, he saw hope!
