Qin Sheng said: "You could have stayed out of it."
Yunsu Group is a pure business group.
This sentence means that the core purpose of all actions of this large business group is and only is "profit". Before that, everything else, whether it is the rise and fall of the entire industry itself or the new and old hatreds of individual companies due to competition, can be compromised.
In the final analysis, whether Yunsu Group acquires other animation companies or prepares to build a complete assembly line business chain with IP as the core, these things are actually not particularly related to Huaying Animation, where quality is king.
Fans of Huaying Animation will probably not be interested in Yunsu Group’s fast-food animation; and Yunsu Group’s main audience may not necessarily understand the aesthetics of Huaying Animation.
In other words, as long as the two parties have the same goal, Huaying Animation and Yunsu Group can just not interfere with each other.
For Yunsu Group, it is neither possible nor necessary to achieve the level of quality animation like Huaying Animation. They are well aware of this and have no intention of competing with Huaying on this point - countless past experiences have proved that all those who have tried to compete with Huaying Animation for ratings and box office have not succeeded.
In that case, what else is there to say
They make their own assembly line animations to improve their business chain, while Huaying Animation continues to make high-quality animations. Isn't it good for everyone to go their own way
Therefore, in this matter, Yunsu Group will not take the initiative to confront Huaying Animation unless it is necessary.
unless-
“Unless Yunsu Group discovers that they suddenly have an opportunity to gain more benefits - this benefit must be huge enough to induce them to abandon their original plan and try this possible profit.”
Qin Sheng's tone remained calm.
Although these words were clearly speculations and questions, he spoke with a very confident tone, as if he was just stating a fact.
"You clearly know that Yunsu Group's plan will not have much negative impact on Huaying. In fact, because of Yunsu Group's plan, the worse Yunsu Group is, the more noble Huaying Animation will be. In the future, the more people will scold them, the more people will worship Huaying Animation as a god."
He looked at him.
"Huaying is your hard work, right? Is it worth it to bet all your hard work on the future of an industry that has nothing to do with you?"
The milk in the cup gradually ran out.
Mu Xuxing lowered his head, staring silently and intently at the porcelain cup in his hand, and suddenly remembered the meeting held at Huaying Animation in the morning.
At the end of the meeting, he mentioned running schools.
Before this meeting, Mu Suxing had actually thought about a lot of things. For example, when Mu Xingxue and others raised doubts and disagreed with his school plan, what aspects should he focus on and how should he convince them? He even thought of different methods of persuasion for each person.
But none of those were used.
When he mentioned this plan solemnly and a little nervously, some people were surprised, some understood, some were calm, and some even smiled.
No one expressed any objection.
Seeing that everyone accepted it well, Muxuxing was the most surprised one: "Don't you think this plan is too risky?"
"If it were someone else, then needless to say, they would have nothing better to do. As for you, Amu," Fang Lian said seriously, "it must be a wise decision with far-sightedness and insight!"
"Hmm..." Wen Feihang also held his chin and nodded in agreement: "Although I don't know why you suddenly thought of running a school, Amu, I think you must have your reasons, right? Anyway, we don't quite understand it. Since you have made this decision, just tell us directly if you need anything."
Cui Hongyi looked at Mu Xingxue and asked, "Will there be any trouble if we run a school?"
Mu Xingxue thought for a moment and said, "It's OK. If we run a school, it might be a little troublesome to have teachers and students. With the cooperation project of "The Old Man and the Sea", it shouldn't be too difficult to invite those seniors. The other problem is the high initial expenses."
Cui Hongyi asked in surprise: "Does Huaying still need money?"
"It's not that we are short of money, it's mainly because the company's recent project burden is indeed a bit heavy."
Mu Xingxue explained: "For example, the cost of CG animation movies such as Harry Potter is nearly 10 billion. The cost of the two animations, Detective Conan and Your Lie in April, is also not low. In addition, the construction of the Huaying theme park also requires money, plus running a school... The company's financial turnover may be a little troublesome in the short term. However, based on past experience, as long as Detective Conan is successfully completed and profitable, there shouldn't be any big problems."
Cui Hongyi said "oh", not knowing whether he understood or not: "Then let's do it, I think it's okay."
"I have no objection either." Dai Yuyan said.
Seeing that the group of people agreed in just a few words, Mu Suxing couldn't accept it: "Are you sure you don't want to think about it again?"
"What is there to consider? I think running a school is a good idea," Fang Lian held up his chin, "Isn't it said that the next era is the animation era? Wouldn't it be great if we could run a school and train some talents?"
… How come Fang Lian believed it in this animation era
Mu Suxing felt helpless and amused, so he had to look at Mu Xingxue, the only one among the crowd who seemed a little rational. He thought that the others didn't think too much about it, but Mu Xingxue, as the president of Huaying Animation, should have some normal and rational business thinking, right
Mu Xingxue said, "Actually... you don't have to feel sorry for us."
Mu Xuxing's heart skipped a beat.
For a moment, he almost thought that his thoughts were exposed, but he quickly calmed down. If it weren't for the memories of his previous life, he would never have thought of using this point. Mu Xingxue had no reason to guess his thoughts.
"To put it bluntly, Huaying would still be what it is today without any of us, but without you, Huaying would never have been born, let alone developed to this point." Mu Xingxue said naturally: "You are the one who made Huaying what she is today, and now it's Huaying's turn to make you what you are today, isn't that natural?"
…Change the painting to make him successful
Mu Suxing was stunned at first, then he suddenly realized.
Too.
If it was a separate school, it might not seem like much to others. But after the birth of the special animation project "The Old Man and the Sea", as his status and reputation among animation producers rose, this school was easily associated with something of a higher level.
For example, reputation
As an animation producer, he can be said to have achieved the pinnacle of commercial animation, but for an animation master, this is obviously not enough, so there was "The Old Man and the Sea" and this sudden school. The former can allow him to step into the threshold of animation masters, and the latter can allow him to have a title like "President of the University of Painting and Film" in the future.
So, Mu Xingxue thought that he was hesitating because of his own selfish motives in running a school
Not knowing that his guess was completely wrong, Mu Xingxue continued, "So, there is absolutely no need for you to feel ashamed of your selfishness, or sorry for us or anything like that."
"Just do it according to your own ideas."
According to his own ideas...
Mu Suxing could not deny that the guilt in his heart was indeed alleviated a lot because of Mu Xingxue's words. Although the selfishness mentioned by the other party was not the same as his actual selfishness, no matter what, the development of Huaying to its current state was not just the result of his hard work.
He wasn't just risking his own blood.
Huaying’s current status is the result of the hard work of everyone in the company.
Mu Suxing came back to his senses. He raised his head and looked into Qin Sheng's eyes. He shook his head silently and said, "I am actually very selfish. I am not as great as you think."
"In order to prevent the entire animation industry from falling into the hands of Yunsu Group, you are willing to use your own company as bait to get rid of this cancer?" The young man tilted his head, a faint smile appeared in his eyes: "Yes, but not entirely."
Muxuxing called him: "Qin Sheng."
"Back when Yunsu Group entered the gaming industry, plagiarized Tengkong Entertainment's console games, produced a large number of copycat games with different skins, disrupted the entire gaming market, and made a lot of money in the mobile gaming circle—"
He looked at him with curiosity in his eyes: "What did you think at that time?"
Qin Sheng was stunned.
This was the first time he called his name.
This was not the "Brother Qin Sheng" who stood obediently behind him when he was a child, nor was he the "Brother Sheng" who was always intimate and even a little dependent, but the "Qin Sheng" who was called by his full name, calm and sober.
This suddenly gave him a very strange feeling.
It wasn't disgust, nor was it at a loss - it was as if he had clearly noticed the other party's hidden meaning at this moment, and even guessed what the other party would say next, but he didn't feel offended. The emotions that surged from the bottom of his heart were no longer as light and itchy as feathers, but instead hit his heart heavily, making him nervous for no reason.
Muxuxing didn't look at him.
The young man lowered his eyes and stroked the white cup with his left index finger. "Do you remember what you said to me when I said I wanted to develop in the gaming and comics industries?"
Without waiting for the other party to answer, Mu Suxing said calmly: "Tell me, every industry has its own leading companies. These companies often occupy the largest market share. All excellent competing companies that try to enter these industries will often be ruthlessly suppressed by them."
"The former Huaying was the one who was suppressed when entering games and comics, but now—"
"Let Yunsu Group use assembly line animation to grab market share, let assembly line animation producers get the best salary, and then let Huaying employees make the best animations and get second-rate wages, so that Huaying Animation becomes a flower in the mud that everyone praises, but the actual profit is far less than that of Yunsu Group?"
Muxuxing smiled and shook his head: "No, I refuse."
"I don't care how successful Yunsu Group is in other industries, but now, this Blue Star Animation Market is my territory. Those guys who, without my permission, run wild in my territory, steal my cake, and mess up the whole cake—"
The white porcelain cup fell steadily on the coffee table, making a crisp impact sound.
"If you cross one hand, I'll chop off one hand. If you cross one foot, I'll chop off one foot."
Qin Sheng stared at him.
It was still the same deep night, the young man leaned back slightly, and slumped lazily on the single sofa, as if he had not moved from beginning to end. Only his delicate and handsome eyebrows revealed a little bit of undisguised hostility, which was so cold and arrogant... It made people's heart beat.
