Chapter 313 - Chapter 313 Chapter 313 Going to a Meeting

Chapter 313: Chapter 313: Going to a Meeting Chapter 313: Chapter 313: Going to a Meeting “That, um,” Cao Yuncheng asked with a laugh, “weren’t you just…”

“Ah Director Cao, look at you,” Ma Wenyun desperately tried to steer the conversation back, he was really pressed, and hurriedly said, “I just said that off the top of my head. Alright, let’s drop that subject. It’s not often we meet the author of Break the Heavens, so dinner’s on me today!”

Lin Xiaoyun: “…” My brother is too awesome!

Cao Yuncheng: “…” Hahaha, awesome!

The clueless crowd: “…” This script flipped too quickly…

Ah, if you had said this earlier, wouldn’t that have solved everything…

“Well, that’s going to be costly for Assistant Ma!” Wang Hao looked at him with amusement, “This table has great dishes. Oh, these four abalones, two pounds of lobster…”

Ma Wenyun’s expression was quite something!

This meal could definitely bankrupt him! At least, there goes his salary for a month!

“Ha-ha, of course,” Lu Wansong, unaware of what had transpired earlier, didn’t think much of it, “To actually see braised silkworms, it goes without saying, I’m dining here too!” He then waved his hand, “Waiter, bring us the best sharks fin you’ve got!”

Ma Wenyun felt like crying…

Everyone struggled to hold back their laughter, especially Cao Yuncheng, who was particularly amused.

“Doudou,” as the dishes were being served, Lu Wansong asked Wang Hao, “This summit is about studying novel adaptations. You are now a person of interest in this field. What do you think?”

As soon as Lu Wansong said that, everyone suddenly perked up.

Here comes the juicy part!

Why else were they here tonight if not to discuss this?

Previously there was nothing much, but now, hearing it from the Break the Heavens author who is the hottest on the current literature websites is really something!

“Well…” Wang Hao thought for a moment, then said with a smile, “You see, about adaptations, you need to look at it this way. I checked some data, and actually, anime merchandise has really great potential. Take my Break the Heavens for example. We can make toys right? Jewelry, T-shirts could be sold in second- and third-tier cities, towns, overseas, and on an official company website. Plus, with movie box office returns, games, copyright licensing, and other forms of income, when you sum it up, it’s quite a lot of money.”

“That makes sense!” Lu Wansong nodded repeatedly, “You mean our company should not just focus on comics but also venture into merchandise like toys?”

“Of course,” Wang Hao took a sip of his drink and said, “Now is the era of pan-entertainment. To put it bluntly, more and more people from the three-dimensional world are starting to watch two-dimensional animations and videos; more and more two-dimensional comics and animations are being adapted into live-action films and series, spreading in the three-dimensional world; more and more people will come to know what cosplay is, what Lolita is, what figurines are, what bullet screens are, etc.”

Let my words here serve as your guide. The rest you’ll have to figure out on your own.

“Got it, got it!” Lu Wansong’s eyes were bright, “You are right, previously our company always followed a single track, but now it seems we really should focus on these aspects.”

Peng Yuan Chun exclaimed, “No wonder you’re a top online writer. Your vision is certainly different. We have developed some merchandise before, but never really got into jewelry, T-shirts, animations, and the like. Tonight’s discussion is truly more enriching than ten years of studying!”

Wang Hao: “…”

That’s the power of vision, the advantage of having lived through reincarnations!

“Come on, let’s drink!” After briefly explaining this, Wang Hao immediately picked up his wine glass, “Let’s drink well tonight!”

It feels different when someone else is footing the bill, exhilarating!

Ah, the drinks are incredibly satisfying today–when it came to settling the bill, Wang Hao just casually glanced at it, fifteen thousand eight hundred!

Hahaha! Caught you pretending, now you’re going to cry, aren’t you?

When leaving the restaurant, Ma Wenyun’s lips trembled, clearly in pain from the expense!

“Little brother, we have the formal meeting tomorrow,” Lu Wansong said as he walked with his arm around Wang Hao’s shoulder, “If you are selling the rights to your Break the Heavens, you must sell them to me! We are all brothers here, no point in letting the benefits slip to others!”

“Sure thing, no problem!” Wang Hao nodded with a smile, “I’ll contact you first when the time comes!”

With Long Yi behind the scenes, there definitely won’t be any issues!

…

The next day was the official day of the meeting.

“Knock, knock, knock!” At just nine in the morning, there was a knock on the door, and Lin Xiaoyun could be heard asking outside, “Brother, are you all packed up? It’s time to head downstairs for the meeting! I heard a lot of reporters are coming today!”

“Ah?” Wang Hao opened the door, surprised, “Reporters too? For real? Is it necessary to make such a big show?”

Lin Xiaoyun laughed, “You’ll see when you get there!”

As they spoke, the two went downstairs. Just entering the lobby on the first floor, Wang Hao was stunned!

At that moment, the lobby was packed with people. Wang Hao glanced casually and estimated there were easily over two hundred, all in suits, exactly as Lin Xiaoyun had said, with about fifty to sixty reporters snapping pictures like crazy.

And just above the corridor leading to the large conference room, a huge red banner hung on the wall, stating “Heavenly Country Animation Brand Summit” in large letters, with a smaller subtitle below–“On the future development direction of Heavenly Country Animation, and the feasibility of adapting online literature and drama IPs into comics.”

Today’s meeting indeed seemed very high-profile!

—————————-

An extra chapter early in the month because Doudou has actually been working hard, especially as he hasn’t been feeling well recently.

This month, I’ll try to adjust and feel better, and I sincerely thank everyone for their concerns!

I’ll update normally at six o’clock in the evening…
