Chapter 231 The Three Publishing Houses

"Xiaomang, you choose first, I'll go out and open the door first."

"Okay dad!"

Seeing Xiaomeng's well-behaved look, Yi Qing touched the other person's little head and smiled out of the bedroom door.

One minute later, Keiichi Kato and Iare sat in the living room.

"Biluochun?" After sitting down and taking a sip of tea, Kei Kato said in surprise in her eyes.

"Oh...I thought most Japanese people like to drink black tea?"

After traveling through the past or two weeks, Yi Qing has been drinking black tea and misses green tea a little, so he asked Li Wei to get some Biluochun over before.

"Sir Yi, I have not only worked for three years in China, but also learned a lot about some classical culture in China." Keiichi Kato smiled confidently.

Yi Qing smiled and didn't care about this matter, "You should have some understanding of the acg circle these two days, right?"

When talking about the serious business, Keiichi Kato sat upright and said, "Of course... I found that the Japanese acg circle is a little sluggish now."

"How do you say it?" Yi Qing said interested.

"The reason I say that is entirely because the two circles of the main acg light novel industry and the comic industry are too different. In simple terms, the quality of novels and comics is too poor.

Whether it is light novels or comics, they all seem very routine and have no innovation. This should be the current stage of these two circles, and they have entered a stagnation period. Unless someone comes out to break this situation, the Japanese acg circle will fall into a dead cycle."

Speaking of this, Kato Kei looked worried at a glance. You should know that the animation industry is the second pillar of Japan. If this industry stagnates and its development is surpassed by other countries, it will be a major blow to Japan.

But in this situation, he naturally cannot change it.

"Continue." Yi Qing sat upright in her seat and listened quietly.

Upon hearing this, Keiichi Kato calmed down his thoughts, took a sip of tea, moistened his throat and continued, "Shao Yi, this situation in Japan is very beneficial to your development.

The first point is that the current situation has led to many small and medium-sized publishing houses falling into a crisis of no one available. Readers do not buy into the author's books, which makes the publishing house fall into a vicious cycle of economic losses.

So now many publishing houses are facing bankruptcy. If you say you want to acquire a publishing house, I have listed three publishing houses, and I believe you will be very satisfied.

The second point is that the current market is much less competitive than before. If you develop ACG now, the resistance will be much smaller."

These two points Kato Keiichi said made Iqing's eyes lit up.

First, that is the funding issue. If it were to acquire a publishing house in the past, the cost might be very large. However, in this case, various small and medium-sized publishing houses are facing a crisis, so he has the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Secondly, it is optional. After all, his development is mainly driven by comics, animations, and light novels in his mind, while the things in his mind are of excellent quality and are not afraid of any competition.

As long as the quality is good, the channels will come to you automatically, and the opponent will naturally retreat step by step.

As for those dirty tricks, if the other party really dares to use them, he will naturally have a way to punish them.

"What three publishing houses do you like?" Thinking of this, Yi Qing said curiously.

"Tenume Publishing House in Kyoto, the Future Publishing House in Tokyo, and the Mukuchikawa Bookstore in Ikebukuro." After a pause, Keiichi Kato continued, "These three are medium-sized publishing houses, and they should meet your requirements."

Yi Qing nodded. He looked down on small publishing houses. If it is large, he is afraid that the funds will not be able to keep up, and medium-sized ones will be a big advantage.

I have to say that Keiichi Kato grasped his ideas just right.

“What about the advantages and disadvantages of the three publishing houses?”

"The advantage of Tianwen Publishing House is that its channels are stronger than the other two companies, and there is even a channel point in China. The disadvantage is that it is less famous and is very excluded by its peers. Therefore, if you choose this publishing house, you need to deal with the suppression of other publishing houses in Kyoto."

"For the future publishing house, it is more famous in Tokyo and has many die-hard fans. However, due to the recent change of jobs by a large number of authors, those fans have also followed, resulting in no infusion of fresh blood, which is worse than one day. This is the case after a long period of time."

"The Budhichuan Bookstore seems to be more moderate, with few channels, but the relationship is well managed. However, they are like the Future Publishing House, but there are too few authors. Although they are vigorously exploring new people recently, they are dropping the bucket, so the owner of the Budhichuan Bookstore decided to sell it."

Upon hearing this, Yi Qing couldn't help but think.

The advantages and disadvantages of these three companies are obvious, but Tianwen Publishing House is the most attractive because the other party has a channel from China. Although there is only one channel, he can use this channel to open other channels.

As long as his books can be sold to Huaxia, he believes that other channels in Huaxia will definitely come to you, and no one will refuse high-quality novels.

However, the suppression of other publishing houses in Kyoto made him frown. He was not afraid of dirty tricks, but legitimate business competition was a bit of a headache.

Because he had to wait for "Love Photo" to set off a pure love craze before he decided to publish "Five Centimeters in Seconds".

Only when the fame of "Love Photo" explodes completely in Asia will readers notice him, and he can take this opportunity to expand the size of the publisher.

However, if it acquires Tianwen Publishing House in this situation, it will be suppressed and unable to raise its head as normal development.

In addition, his current focus is not on publishing houses, but on creating games, so it is difficult to take into account the publishing houses.

The most important thing is that he didn't know when Moxiang Book Pavilion will publish "Love Photos". After all, before it is published, there will be a wave of publicity and momentum.

But the words of Future Publishing House and Fukukawa Publishing House are a bit dull.

But after thinking a little, Yi Qing asked, "How is the editors and staff in these three publishing houses?"

"This is exactly what I want to say... Except for Budhikawa Bookstore, most of the editors of the other two companies have left and looked for new owners. Especially for Future Publishing House, the reason why their authors change jobs was completely taken away by the editor."

Speaking of this, Keiichi Kato shook his head. Although he disliked the editors' practices, he didn't say much, after all, this is the mall.

"What about Budhikawa Bookstore?"

"For Budhikawa Bookstore, there has not been much loss of editors and staff, and their editors are seniors who have worked for more than three years. This is the advantage of Budhikawa. In addition, other aspects seem mediocre."

As his fingers tapped the table, Yi Qing's brows stretched slightly, "Since that's the case, let's go to Ikebukuro to have a look in the afternoon."

After thinking for a long time, Yi Qing still decided to Budhichuan Bookstore.
