He suddenly stood up and left the River Map.
He really wasn't suited for seclusion in such an environment.
At the very least, he had some ideas or clues before this.
Chen Zhao didn't find it boring.
But now, he had no idea how to develop a new skill.
Chen Zhao looked at the time. More than a hundred hours had passed in the River Map.
It had only been less than ten minutes outside.
He wanted to watch some TV dramas and find some inspiration.
Chen Zhao took a large number of DVDs and entered the River Map to kill time.
However, after watching European and American movies for a long time, Chen Zhao felt rather disappointed.
Forget it. Western movies and TV dramas involved the supernatural. The moves, routines, and attacking methods were all quite ordinary.
There wasn't much to look at, nor could it give him any inspiration.
It was better to look at Chinese or Japanese comics.
Perhaps it was because of cultural resonance. Both of them had many things that Chen Zhao could learn from or find new.
In fact, some of the attacks that Chen Zhao had developed in the past had been inspired by Chinese and Japanese comics.
Regardless of whether it was Chinese or Japanese comics, as long as it wasn't based in reality, there would be a lot of cool skills.
But after looking for a long time, he didn't see anyone in the same situation as him.
He also did not see any skills that were suitable for him to develop.
Chen Zhao had watched at least two thousand episodes, but he wasn't inspired at all.
This made Chen Zhao very unhappy.
Chen Zhao exited the River Map again. Holding the remote control, he watched a Chinese animation program.
Just then, he saw a piece of news.
A non-famous animation studio in the country had closed down, and the boss of the studio was currently looking to acquire it.
The boss of this animation studio was also a mangaka.
He had more than ten painters under him and had published a few standalone books. Unfortunately, they did not achieve the desired effect.
Chen Zhao picked up the phone. "Hey, Alex, help me. I want to buy a studio."
When Alex heard that Chen Zhao wanted to buy a Chinese animation studio, she was speechless.
But Chen Zhao was her boss.
Who knew what the boss was thinking?
Does Chen Zhao want to support Chinese animation?
Did he have such great sentiments?
…
At this moment, Zhang Ting was packing up the things in the studio.
The dozen or so artists in the studio were also in low spirits.
Like Zhang Ting, they joined Dream Studios with the dream of revitalizing China's animation industry.
But reality slapped them hard in the face.
The domestic market was too chaotic.
They wrote a comic together and released three stand-alone books.
In the end, the best-selling first episode only sold 11,000 copies, and the sales of the second and third episodes fell to the bottom.
Zhang Ting had thought of looking for an animated version. She wanted to rely on an animated version to gain attention and increase the sales of the single volume.
But she went to almost all the companies she could contact.
The answers she received were all disappointing.
In the past two and a half years, she had invested about 1.5 million RMB.
However, the studio did not improve until her funds could not keep up.
However, she hoped that these people who had the same dream as her would have a good ending.
At least let them keep their jobs.
Therefore, she hoped that someone would buy the studio.
Moreover, she was willing to buy it symbolically for one yuan.
But still, no one was interested in her studio.
None of them were famous, and none of them had valuable IP.
To put it bluntly, this was a shell studio.
At this moment, Zhang Ting's phone rang.
"Hello, are you Miss Zhang Ting?"
"Yes, I am. May I know who you are?"
"I'm from Baixing Law Firm. My surname is Wu."
"Hello, Lawyer Wu. What can I do for you?" Zhang Ting swallowed her saliva.
It couldn't be that there was trouble, right?
As a Chinese, when hearing the identity of a lawyer, the first reaction was almost the same. Was there trouble coming to the door?
"It's like this. I received an agency task from a foreign law firm. The other party wants to buy your studio, and the other party is very anxious, so I want to know the price of your studio."
"Er … Is it a foreigner who wants to buy my studio?" Zhang Ting asked in surprise.
"I don't know who the buyer is, but this agency task was sent from abroad. I guess the investor should be a foreigner."
"I have stated the purchase conditions on the company's official website. As long as the investor is willing to keep the studio and the artists, I am willing to sell it for one yuan. All the copyrights of the studio's only work will also belong to the investor," Zhang Ting said.
"The buyer also made a request. All the main creators must stay, and the staff structure of the studio should not be changed as much as possible, especially the creative director," Lawyer Wu said.
When Zhang Ting heard this request, she was a little surprised.
However, the other party's request seemed to meet her requirements.
"The only work of our studio is the result of everyone's brainstorming. Everyone is the main creator, and we don't have a creative director."
"I need to report your situation to them."
"Okay, I'll wait for your news."
After about ten minutes, Lawyer Wu called again.
"Miss Zhang, the investor wants to video call you. Is it convenient for you now?"
"Investor? Is it a foreigner? "
"It's a foreign woman who is talking to me, but I'm not sure if it's the investor."
"Okay, what communication software do they need?"
"QQ."
"Er … Do foreigners also use QQ?"
"I don't know."
Zhang Ting was a little worried that it might be a scam.
After all, the other party would not lose money if they bought it for one yuan.
Although the work was not worth much, no one could guarantee that the other party was not really short of money.
According to Lawyer Wu's request, after adding the other party's QQ.
Zhang Ting immediately received a video call request.
"Hello, Miss Zhang."
Zhang Ting saw that the person in the video was a Chinese man who spoke fluent Chinese.
"I want to know, how much does it cost to maintain your studio for a year?"
"Er … This … In the past two years, I invested about 1.5 million yuan, but this is only the basic maintenance," Zhang Ting said.
"Because it's not even 200,000 USD a year, right?"
"Er … Sir, are you abroad?"
"Yes, I am a loyal fan of the 'Warrior' that you released, so I plan to buy your studio. I hope that your studio will continue to complete this work. As long as you agree, I will arrange for a lawyer to go over. Of course, I will also bring your operating expenses for the next quarter."
