At the island country Tokyo International Airport, Zhao Chen and his mother appeared in this strange place. There was another person beside him, but he was a guide from Xiangjiang.

The guide is named Li Yuncong. He is an elegant young man with glasses. Although Li Yuncong is from Xiangjiang, he has been working as a tourist guide in the island country in recent years and seems quite skilled in Japanese. Zhao Chen also found Li Yuncong through his own connections, and came specifically for himself to be familiar with Tokyo.

"Yuncong, find a cleaner hotel to live first! Then accompany me to the procedures for a few days and help me get familiar with Tokyo."

Zhao Chen took the luggage from his mother's hand and said to Li Yuncong next to him. He was quite unfamiliar with the island country, so he naturally needed a familiar guide.

"Master Zhao, I understand!"

At this time, it was already March. Due to the decision of the Governor of Hong Kong, the sales volume of "Tianxia Weekly" that had originally stopped rose again, and in just a few days it broke through the sales record of a single comic magazine held by Huang Yulang.

Zhao Chen, who once again broke the record, became famous and was able to compete with Huang Yulang in a vague manner. He was recognized by most insiders in the Xiangjiang comics industry. He finally won the title of Xiangjiang comic master and was tied with Huang Yulang and Shangguan Xiaobao.

In just half a year, Zhao Chen has gone from nothing to his current net worth of tens of millions. In addition, the various titles he has won are a legend for the people of Xiangjiang, and no one can reach this level in such a short time.

It is also because of this that Li Yuncong would willingly call Master Zhao Chen. For him, the boy who started from scratch was enough to make him respect him.

As for the mother next to her, she didn't speak, but looked around. The unfamiliar environment often makes people feel confused, especially for Wang Ya, who has never seen any world. If you want to improve, it will inevitably take some time to adapt.

Li Yuncong helped to carry his luggage and called a taxi with his car and headed towards the downtown Tokyo.

When the taxi was running, Li Yuncong kept introducing the international metropolis of Tokyo.

In the center of Tokyo, Zhao Chen and the other two found a hotel and rented a suite to live in, and then started various procedures under the leadership of Li Yuncong.

Zhao Chen felt that the time had come. If you want to become the greatest cartoonist, the market of the island country would inevitably need to be captured, because the number of comics in this country is the largest, and the number of piracy here is the least. It can be said that this is a paradise for all creators.

Zhao Chen undoubtedly has a lot to do. Not only does he have to start a comic company, but he also has to acquire a publishing house in Tokyo, and he also has to recruit cartoonists, assistants and various staff for the company. This is just a preliminary stage. He will also publish comic magazines later, open up sales channels, etc., which can be said to be quite complicated.

But Zhao Chen has no way out. It will undoubtedly take a lot of time to enter the largest comics market in the island country. Moreover, the difficulty of the challenge is far from comparable to that of Xiangjiang. After all, the two do not belong to the same level in this regard.

Fortunately, Zhao Chen could use millions of funds. He had already paid the two million owed by the publishing house, and the two million owed by Shangguan Xiaobao's borrowed was nowhere to be achieved.

During this period, two comic magazines and a comic daily once again created considerable profits for Zhao Chen. "Football Young Master" and "Chinese Heroes" also released three comic books, which is the real big head. In addition, the tax filings brought by the sales of comics and novels "The Legend of the Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty". Just these, deducting daily expenses and taxes, this short period of three months brought nearly eight million profits to Zhao Chen.

Not only that, "Happy Ghost" brought him four million in profits in Xiangjiang alone, and in addition, he sold the script to Jiahe, Shaw Brothers and Xiang Huaqiang respectively, he also brought him three million in script revenue. This is not counting the profit of "Happy Ghost" in other markets to be crazy about box office revenue. At that time, Zhao Chen could at least earn millions of revenue.

Adding up all the money, Zhao Chen's income can be said to have risen, with funds alone reaching as much as 15 million. Even if Tokyo's consumption level is very high, these funds are enough to achieve his goal.

In addition, "The Legend of the Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" has been released in the island country for nearly half a year, and also released four single-line books. The cumulative sales of these four single-line books are close to 2 million, which has brought some fans to this, which has also made Zhao Chen lose his position in the comics industry in the island country. At least it cannot be considered a newcomer, and of course it is even more impossible to reach the level of a well-known cartoonist. If you want to reach the level of a well-known cartoonist in the island country, Zhao Chen can be said to have a long way to go!

Hong Kong comics may be the second largest comic type in Asia, but the gap between the number one Japanese comics is too big. The two are not of the same level at all. Therefore, it is difficult for Zhao Chen to win the title of a well-known cartoonist in the island country than to win the title of master in Xiangjiang.

The main reason is the huge gap in the number of cartoonists and the size of the comic market. These two reasons determine the difficulty of Zhao Chen. It will take at least two or three years to become a comic master in the island country.

If you want to become a master, in addition to high sales and good quality, you also need to gain recognition from readers. In addition, it is in terms of heritage. No matter how famous a comic brings, it will take some time to settle down.

Zhao Chen, who is somewhat famous in the island country, is between a rookie cartoonist and a well-known cartoonist. There are quite a few such cartoonists in the island country. If you have to use one word, that is, ordinary cartoonists have a status that is less than the top and less than the bottom.

Under the guidance of Li Yuncong, Zhao Chen and his son were walking and going all the way, completing various documents and procedures. What made Zhao Chen happy was that he saw the poster of "Happy Ghost".

It turned out that at this time, "Happy Ghost" successfully entered the island market, and the one who released "Happy Ghost" was Kakugawa Genyoshi, the founder of Kakugawa Bookstore. This has to be said to be a fate. At least Kakugawa Genyoshi knew about the character Zhao Chen.

Because he is a foreigner, it took Zhao Chen a few days to start a comic company, but it still took all kinds of money to get it through. Otherwise, it might take some time to obtain a business license.

When he founded a comic company, due to his age, the owner and legal person of the company were all served by his mother Wang Ya, which was also the reason why Zhao Chen brought his mother to the island country. At his age, he could not start a comic company at all, but this matter was quite serious. You can't just find someone to replace him, otherwise it would be useless to get a bamboo basket. Only by handing it over to his mother Zhao Chen would be relieved. When his age reaches the future, he will transfer the comic company back.

The comic company founded by Zhao Chen is located in Chiyoda District, Tokyo. It is one of the 23 special districts in Tokyo, including the emperor's residence, the Parliament (Nadaya Town), the Supreme Court (Supreme Court), Yasuko Kan, and most central provincial departments (central administrative units), etc., all of which are located in Chiyoda District. Therefore, this special administrative district can be said to be the political and economic center of the island country.

Of course, the main reason for setting up the company's address in Chiyoda District is that the famous publishing houses in the island country, and the comic clubs are basically gathered here, including Shueisha, Primary School Pavilion, Shirazuki Club, Kotanshe and Kadokawa Bookstore. This is also the place with the most fans of comics in the island country. It can be said that if you want to make the comic company bigger and stronger, Zhao Chen had no choice here.

On the other hand, this place is also the most competitive place. There are dozens of comic companies with address in Chiyoda District. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult to take off your clothes from so many comic companies.

But Zhao Chen also has his biggest advantage, that is, the various classic comics in his mind and his understanding of the future, and he can find some famous future cartoonists.

After Zhao Chen founded the comic company, he rented a office building of hundreds of square meters in Chiyoda District, and here will be the specific address of the comic company in the future.

The land in Tokyo is very expensive, especially in Chiyoda District. Even if Zhao Chen’s existing assets are used to buy it, he may not even be able to buy it acre. Everyone knows that the island country has many people and few land, so the land in this core area is even more expensive. Zhao Chen had no choice but to rent an office building temporarily and buy land when he has money in the future.

After the commercial company was processed, it was the turn of publishers. Chiyoda District Publishing House was numerous. Under the leadership of Li Yuncong, Zhao Chen visited more than a dozen publishers and finally successfully purchased a medium-sized publisher.

But unlike Xiangjiang, the land of this publishing house still belongs to the original owner, and Zhao Chen really doesn't have that much money to buy. Moreover, because it was a foreigner, Zhao Chen was also slaughtered by a small amount. This medium-sized publishing house alone spent more than 4 million Hong Kong dollars. Calculated based on the current exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars and Japanese yen, it would be a cost of more than 50 million yen, which directly led to a much smaller working capital.

Zhao Chen spent half a month to get these things done, and the procedures were extremely cumbersome. Fortunately, Zhao Chen could spend enough time every day to draw comics. As for the comics he drew, they were sent by international express mail. With the distance between Xiangjiang and the island country, it didn't take much time at all.

After getting these done, Zhao Chen used the publishing house he just acquired as a node and used the publishing house's connections to hire managers from several animation companies at a high price. These managers worked in other comic companies and had considerable management experience. At the same time, they can more or less increase the sales channels of comic companies. It can be said that the two are mutually beneficial.

With enough management personnel, Zhao Chen asked them to use the high-priced new works of cartoonists to waving with high-paying slogans to win over cartoonists, and hope to find cartoonists with great potential.

The biggest difference between the comic magazines in the island country and Hong Kong is the number of pages. The number of pages in the island country is several times that of the magazines in the island country. In other words, if a comic magazine is successfully published in the island country, it takes at least ten cartoonists. Even if Zhao Chen is so powerful, he will be equivalent to three or four cartoonists if he dies, and the rest can only be used by other cartoonists.

After dealing with all the debris, Zhao Chen walked towards Jiyingshe under the guidance of Li Yuncong.

Jiyingshe is only a few hundred meters away from the comic company founded by Zhao Chen, and it only takes a few minutes to reach it.

Just as Zhao Chen and Li Yuncong were about to enter Jiyingshe, a young man with a little childish look on his face rushed forward rashly, pointing directly at Jiyingshe in front of Zhao Chen.

The young man was about twenty years old, and perhaps because of a very anxious reason, he wanted to get into the gap and enter Shueisha.

Unfortunately, there was a person in Shueisha. The young man couldn't stop and collided with the man.

"Ouch!" The man who was hit was not prepared for any defense. He took two steps back when he was hit, and sat on the ground.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it." The things in the young man's hands were scattered on the ground, but there were drawings. His face was full of panic. He did not immediately pick up the drawings. Instead, he came to the person who was hit and bowed slightly and apologized sincerely.

"It hurts so much! You kid is too rash, this is Shueisha. Fortunately, it is Hojoji. If you bump into those famous cartoonists with strange tempers, what will you do!"
