Chapter 249 'Transformers'

While the outside world was still marveling at what Zhao Chen did, Zhao Chen had already launched another acquisition plan, but it was not the company that was acquired, but two technical patents!

This time, Zhao Chen's plan was carried out secretly, because the manufacturer of these two patents is TAKARA Toys Company, one of the main competitors of the World Toy Factory!

In the island country, the largest toy companies are currently TAKARA, Bandai and TOMY, and the three companies compete. However, when Tianxiashe became more and more powerful, with the popularity of comics, the world's toy factories became stronger and stronger, and now they are only second only toy factories. The competition between the two sides is now quite fierce, but even these three toy factories have to admit that the strength and scale of Tianxia Toys Factory is no less than them, and its annual sales are even more comparable to them.

The reason for this can be said to be that the reputation is quite simple, that is, the Tianxia Toy Factory has Tianxia Society as a support. As long as the comics of Tianxia Society are around Tianxia Society, most of them are agents of Tianxia Toy Factory. The cartoonists under Tianxia Society also turn a blind eye, as long as the interests do not decline.

Among them, Zhao Chen's comic peripheral products are naturally all developed by Tianxia Toy Factory. Not only that, Kotanshe and Kakugawa Bookstore, which form the "Rebellion Alliance" with Tianxia Society, are also willing to sell Tianxia Society for a face, and some of its comics' peripheral products are handed over to Tianxia Toy Factory for sale.

The most important products are Lelouch and Gundam mechanical toys, and the "Sailor Moon" model around the "Pokemon" series, which alone accounts for a considerable proportion.

In addition to making animation peripheral products, Tianxia Toy Factory also makes ordinary toys. Although its sales volume is far inferior to the three major toy factories in this regard, because Tianxia Toy Factory has broad sales channels, it can also make considerable profits from this aspect every year.

In this way, the scale of the world's toy factory may be inferior to the three major toy factories, but its sales are no worse than them. As for profits, it is actually higher than them. It has become the fourth largest toy factory in the island country!

It is because of the Tianxia Toy Factory that Zhao Chen would rather have a higher cost and more complicated price than buy it openly, otherwise TAKARA would probably not sell those two toy patents.

After more than three years of development in the island country, Zhao Chen has already mastered a lot of connections, among which the black and white dou have important candidates. He believes that as long as he pays some price, he can acquire those two patents.

These two patents will also be well-known in the future, namely the original model alloy car and the aircraft that can be turned into robots. Another name is even more famous, that is, the famous Transformers!

"Transformers" can be said to be one of the most successful commercial animations in history. Its success in the toy market and audio-visual market was unprecedentedly huge, so it was once popular all over the world in the 1980s, and a "Transformers" craze emerged in many countries such as Asia, Europe and the United States. Transformers became a household name all over the world.

At the same time, "Transformers" will also be a movie series with super high box office in the future. Each movie will have a box office of at least hundreds of millions of dollars, which makes most film companies jealous and is also the signature of Paramount Film Company.

If we look at it according to the trajectory, Hasbro will acquire two technologies of original model alloy cars and aircraft from TAKARA, which can be transformed into robots, and named Transformers. At that time, the entire industry was skeptical because no one had spent eight to ten yuan to buy original model alloy cars before that. However, the intuition of the Hasbro team was correct, and Transformers' sales continued to rise in ten years. Just like the Special Forces and the Little Pony, Transformers are not only popular toys and comic strips, but also animated TV series and feature films.

At the same time, since Hasbro acquired only technology, not patents, TAKARA can also make it. This provides TAKARA with a large amount of profit, and produces several Transformers every year. These expensive toys are very attractive to Transformers fans and are also very valuable collectibles.

In the story setting of "Transformers", robots are divided into the righteous Autobot and the evil Decepticon. The early division standard was to be transformed into a car or an airplane. The same setting was adopted in the comics, but the story was completely different.

At that time, the TV animation of "Transformers" was broadcast and soon became the highest-rated cartoon in the United States at that time. For the generation of people who were just after the rebellious and liberation thoughts in the 1960s and 1970s, and for the generation who returned to their thoughts, this conception was novel, fascinating plot but still conservative values ​​were just suitable for their needs. This was also a factor in the era when Transformers achieved great success. The three-episode animation was still unsatisfied. Therefore, due to the situation, Hasbro received wide praise in animation and toys. While making a fortune, it continued to develop new products to meet market demand. At the same time, it had to continue to produce animations, which kicked off the legend of Transformers for more than 20 years.

The biggest feature of "Transformers" is undoubtedly the robot battle that can be transformed, and the plot is relatively simple.

In the distant universe, there is a planet Sebordin, on which there is a metal living body that has differentiated into the righteous Autobot and the evil Decepticon for nearly a million years. The two sides fought for millions of years. After the planet's energy was exhausted, the Decepticon followed the Autobot to the earth.

The spacecraft crashed in a volcano. 4 million years later, the main computer of the spacecraft, Image One, was started and transformed the two armies in the form of aircraft and cars.

The war unfolded on the earth. In 2000, the Autobots and the Decepticons fought bloody battles. Under the leadership of Megatron, the spacecraft, iron sheet, ambulance, big man, police cars and others that attacked the Autobots, were killed by Megatron one after another. Decepticon attacked the Autobots base. Optimus Prime led all the Autobots to fight the Decepticons, and finally Optimus Prime and Megatron fought decisively. Due to the fierce competition of Hepo, Optimus Prime was seriously injured and died. After being seriously injured, Megatron was rescued by Sound Waves, but was thrown out of the big train by Red Spider.

The quake in the sky was floating in the vast space, and a sound awakened it. This sound was the Emperor of the Universe, and was transformed and strengthened by the Emperor of the Universe to the Great Sky.

Jing Potian then killed the usurped Red Spider and re-controlled the Decepticon. Optimus Prime died in battle and handed over the matrix to Tong Tianxiao. Later, Tong Tianxiao was killed by Jing Potian and snatched away the matrix. He Po defeated Jing Potian in the body of the universe emperor and grabbed the matrix, and became a Bu Tianshi through the help of the matrix.

In 2010, because the Earth and the entire universe were infected with hatred madness, everyone was furious. Autobot leader Optimus Prime was resurrected and rescued the world from hatred madness.

After this battle, the sky said: "I admire you very much, Brother Optimus Prime, there will be no war in the future." The story of Transformers will end perfectly.

Faced with such a business opportunity, how could Zhao Chen not grasp it? Especially with a lot of clips of "Transformers" in his mind, whether it is animation, comics, movies or models!

As long as these two patents are successfully acquired, the world's Toy Factory will have another iconic hot-selling product, and the scale is likely to be one step closer and compete with the three major toy factories in the island country in a short time.

This time, Zhao Chen made a secret move and finally chose Kakugawa Bookstore to purchase these two patents.

The reason why Kakugawa Bookstore is that the two parties are not only allies, but also cooperate many times, that is, movies! Whether it is the movie written by Zhao Chen or the movies, they are basically screened in the theaters of Kakugawa Bookstore, providing considerable profits for Kakugawa Bookstore.

With such a relationship, Kakugawa Bookstore would not be careless, so it naturally tried its best to complete this task. Because if the task failed, there might be a gap between Kakugawa Bookstore and Zhao Chen, and movies belonging to Zhao Chen may be screened by other theaters, which is obviously not worth the loss.
Chapter completed!
