Urban: Becoming a principal from a junior college!

"Principal, the students majoring in comics are very talented. In just over a month, their paintings have already been quite good!"

In front of Ye Chen, the art teacher praised the students' talents with great satisfaction.

Although the students majoring in culinary arts are about to graduate.

Ye Chen has focused his main energy on the e-sports major to make plans for their future employment.

But Ye Chen will naturally not ignore the newly opened animation major.

He often comes to inspect and see the students' learning progress.

And at this moment.

In the art teacher's office, Ye Chen looked at the students' paintings on the desk and nodded.

The paintings are all pretty good.

They don't look like novices who have only learned for a month.

The special bonus of the animation major, the second-dimensional soul, obviously played a lot of role.

No wonder the teacher of the comics major is so satisfied.

Ye Chen flipped through the pictures one by one and soon saw a familiar name.

Luffy...

Luffy's work came into view, and Ye Chen couldn't help but nodded.

The quality of his works is outstanding among all the students.

This kid, could it be that he really has some talent for painting?

The most important thing is that he seems to have really changed his mind and started to study hard.

Ye Chen was quite pleased about this.

Although this pseudo-brother-in-law who has a rebellious mind has been staying in school all the time, it is a bit annoying.

But if the other party really gets on the right track and studies hard.

Then Ye Chen, as the principal, will also be happy.

The art teacher on the side found that the principal was paying attention to Luffy's work, and immediately smiled and said: "Principal, this Luffy is really talented, especially in drawing characters, he has a good grasp of the proportions and lines of the characters..."

"And his learning attitude is also good, I like this kid very much!"

"It seems that he is born to be suitable for the comics major, and it is not in vain to change majors so many times."

As he said, the art teacher turned out Luffy's works from the previous few classes.

Ye Chen glanced at it a few times, and it would not be said to be particularly good.

After all, it has not been long since he started learning.

However, compared with the works of other students, it is obvious that Luffy is talented in drawing characters.

When drawing anime characters, the proportion of the characters is the most important.

It cannot be completely based on reality, because it is not good-looking enough.

But it cannot be too exaggerated, because once it is exaggerated, it will be distorted, and even look like a normal person, which will make the viewer feel bad and even produce disgust.

For example, in the r18 comics, although readers like big ones, it is obviously not the case that the bigger the better.

If it is too big, it will be too distorted and lose the flavor.

It is the most popular among readers to make it as big as possible within a reasonable proportion.

And Luffy's talent in character proportions is very good.

The characters he draws look very pleasing to the eye.

However, the several female characters written by Luffy are all a bit explosive without exception.

Although Luffy's grasp of the character's expression is still average.

But for some reason, Ye Chen can see some sexiness from these female characters' drawings...

Is this a painting that a serious student should draw?

This kid's purpose of learning comics is indeed not simple.

Ye Chen shook his head and decided to find time to remind Lu Jing later and let Lu Jing pay more attention.

Ye Chen doesn't want his students to be in jail for doing unhealthy things.

A few days ago, Ye Chen saw the news that someone was arrested for making special 3D animations abroad and earned more than 2 million in three years.

I heard that the sentence will be quite long.

This is much more serious than the previous problem of e-sports students fighting!

...

Then, Ye Chen went to the animation sub-major.

He checked the modeling learning progress of the animation sub-major students.

After the inspection, Ye Chen was quite satisfied.

The students' learning progress is very good.

Some students are particularly smart. They actually learned an online game called Blade and Soul and imitated the female characters in it to make models!

Although it is a little worse than the original version in terms of greasyness.

The proportion of character modeling is also a little unbalanced, not very natural.

But it can be seen that these students have something.

This made Ye Chen nod.

Sure enough, interest is the first driving force for learning.

Young people like to do these things, so they naturally study more attentively!

It's understandable.

However, as the principal, I have to have a good meeting with the teachers later.

Let the teachers of the animation major teach students about legal issues while teaching knowledge!

Otherwise, Ye Chen is afraid that some students will go to eat royal food before graduation.

...

In short, after looking around.

Ye Chen has a general impression of the learning situation of animation students.

Very good!

According to the teaching schedule formulated by the animation teacher.

In the first half of the first year, the main practice is to practice basic skills such as painting skills and modeling.

In the second half of the semester, they start to learn further skills such as lens and character movement.

It can be said that.

When the students finish the course of this school year.

They have the ability to draw comics and make animations.

Of course, it is just the beginning.

If you want to continue to improve, you have to wait until the sophomore year to learn more in-depth comic animation production techniques.

And Ye Chen has always believed that applying what you have learned is the best teaching method.

The reason why students majoring in culinary arts are so outstanding is that they are sought after by the outside world.

Although it is related to the bonus provided by the system.

But the most important thing is that the college provides students with a lot of practical opportunities.

Let them practice what they have learned at any time.

Only by applying what they have learned can they truly transform knowledge into skills and fully master it.

The same is true for e-sports majors.

It is useless to work behind closed doors.

By holding competitions, students majoring in e-sports can use all the knowledge they have learned.

The improvement is naturally fast.

As for the animation major.

Ye Chen also plans to train students in this way.

For the comics sub-major, Ye Chen decided to wait until they are sophomores.

Just buy the copyright of several novels and let students adapt them into comics.

The animation sub-major is the same.

Let them make adapted animations.

The domestic online novel industry is very prosperous, with many high-quality content resources.

There are also many adapted comics and animations.

But unfortunately, capital is too eager for quick success and just wants to take advantage of the popularity of IP.

The novel obviously has an extremely large plot.

But it has been modified in various ways, the plot has been deleted, and the adaptation is completely unrecognizable, which does not meet the imagination of book fans at all.

It can be said that capital has not fully developed the potential of online novels.

Ye Chen, on the other hand, plans to follow the way of the three major folk comics.

Let students produce long works.

There are basically no long works in China.

The main reason is that the cost is too high and it is difficult to recover the cost.

Because long works require too much manpower.

In the animation industry, the main expenditure is labor cost.

But his own Xingchen Academy is different.

With a large number of students, there is no need to worry about the cost.

Although the comics and animations produced by students may not be good enough and have flaws at the beginning.

But this is not a big problem.

On the one hand, students will gradually improve their level during the production process.

Let the quality of the work become higher and higher.

On the other hand, the original book fans care most about the plot.

As long as the plot respects the original work enough.

Even if there are some flaws in the picture and rhythm, the book fans can accept it.

And the advantage of long comics is that they can continue to accumulate fans.

More and more popular.

This is the case with the three major folk comics of Death, Fire and Sea.

So Ye Chen thinks that it should not be difficult to make a profit by letting students adapt the works.

Finally, it is a matter of time.

The plot of the novel is huge, and it is difficult for students to adapt it in just one year of sophomore year.

It may take several years.

But it is not important.

Because Ye Chen originally planned to pass on his works.

Every year, when the old students go for internship, they will hand over the production to the new sophomore students majoring in animation...

When the painting is finished and the animation is finished.

Then you can buy the copyright of other novels and adapt them to give students practice.

Ye Chen thinks.

He can take time to select works suitable for students to practice, and buy the copyright in advance...

...

In the principal's office.

Ye Chen is scanning the rankings on the novel website to see if there are any novels that suit his eyes.

Since you have to select novels to adapt.

Then naturally choose the ones you are interested in.

However, the novel rankings are getting more and more boring now, all of them are old books and books by great gods.

It is far inferior to the rankings in previous years, with a hundred flowers blooming.

Every time you scan the rankings, you can see surprises.

While thinking, there was a knock on the door.

The teacher in charge of the e-sports club pushed the door open and greeted: "Principal!"

Ye Chen closed the webpage and smiled: "Have you agreed on the sponsorship?"

The teacher nodded immediately, took out a few documents and placed them in front of Ye Chen, and introduced: "Aofeng e-sports chair is willing to spend one million to become our regular season sponsor."

"The other party requires us to add their brand logo to our team uniforms!"

"Anta is the same, willing to pay one million to become our regular season sponsor."

"We will customize uniforms and shoes for our players."

"As long as it is a game, you must wear the clothes and shoes they provide, and the logo cannot be covered..."

"At the same time, Anta also requires the priority acquisition right of our club."

"If we sell the club in the future, Anta must have the priority acquisition right at the same price!"

"..."

Hearing this, Ye Chen was happy.

Because the influence of the League of Legends League is getting bigger and bigger.

Nowadays, big capitals are all actively entering.

In the past, they were all sponsors.

But later they thought that since it was money, why not do it themselves?

So many capitals directly spent huge sums of money to buy clubs and personally participated.

This is the case with the domestic sports brand giant Li Ning.

The club acquired by Li Ning performed well last year and attracted a lot of attention.

Now Anta is asking for the right of first refusal, probably because it sees that its arch-rival Li Ning is in the limelight, so it plans to get involved in the e-sports field.

Now Anta sponsors Xingchen Club, probably just to test the waters and understand the e-sports industry.

Ye Chen has no complaints about this.

The club will not be sold at all.

Therefore, it is meaningless to agree to the right of first refusal.

Ye Chen cares more about another thing: "Why are they all sponsoring the regular season?"

Anta and Aofeng are only willing to sponsor the regular season.

The subsequent playoffs and the global finals, however, were completely ignored.

The teacher smiled bitterly: "It's because he doesn't think highly of us! He's afraid that we won't make it to the playoffs. Let alone the global finals."

Hearing this, Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and smiled.

There are a total of seventeen teams in the country.

After the regular season, only the top eight teams will advance to the playoffs.

Therefore, Anta and Aofeng should not be optimistic that the Star Team can enter the playoffs.

But now Star Team is gaining some popularity.

These sponsors want popularity but are afraid of losing money.

That’s why we only sponsor the regular season.

Ye Chen didn't care about this.

It might as well be that they only sponsor the regular season.

In this way, when my team entered the playoffs, the team did not have any endorsements.

Sponsors of eliminated teams will inevitably choose their own teams for sponsorship for the sake of brand exposure.

By then, our team had already entered the playoffs, and our strength was once again proven.

Sponsorship fees can actually get you more.

Therefore, the cautious approach of sponsors to only sponsor the regular season is actually beneficial to themselves.

"Okay... but are they the only ones interested in sponsoring?"

The teacher shook his head and immediately said: "There are two more..."

"But these two families are of the same type!"

"We can only choose one."

"One is Logitech. The conditions offered are the same as those of Aofeng and Anta. They are sponsoring one million yuan for the regular season."

"The other one is a well-established domestic keyboard and mouse brand, Erfeiyan!"

Erfeiyan?

Hear this familiar yet unfamiliar brand name.

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows.

This name was naturally familiar to Ye Chen.

Ten years ago, the keyboard and mouse at home were from this brand.

Ye Chen still remembers the mouse at that time. There was a small ball inside, and he often picked it out and played with it.

Unexpectedly, one day, Er Feiyan, whom Ye Chen thought was bankrupt, would actually want to be a sponsor of his own club.

This made Ye Chen quite interesting.

He opened his mouth and asked: "How much is Er Feiyan's price? If the conditions are the same as those of Logitech, then choose Er Feiyan!"

Ye Chen chose Er Feiyan first, not for anything else but for feelings.

The teacher shook his head and said, "Er Feiyan did not give specific sponsorship requirements. Their boss hopes to meet you and have an interview with you!"

Ye Chen frowned when he heard this.

To be honest, it’s just a sponsorship of one or two million.

Say too much but not too much, say too little too much.

After having the cash cow of Xingchen Catering Company, Ye Chen was too lazy to bother with this sponsorship.

However, Ye Chen is still quite curious about how Er Feiyan went from being a well-known domestic product back then to a dismal ending that few young people know about today.

Many old domestic brands have quietly faded out of people's sight.

Meet Er Feiyan’s boss and learn from Er Feiyan’s failure experience so that you can avoid detours in the future!

So Ye Chen thought for a moment and agreed.

Erfeiyan is also a local brand in Tianhai City.

After getting the news that Ye Chen agreed to meet and discuss in detail.

At four o'clock that afternoon, Boss Er Feiyan rushed to Xingchen Academy.

Seems a little impatient.

And when Ye Chen came to the reception room.

There are already many people in the reception room.

Ye Chen glanced around, and his eyes couldn't help but be attracted to a woman.

The other party is surprisingly beautiful, with delicate facial features forming a flawless cheek.

Her long hair is tied into a ponytail, looking capable and mature.

And she was wearing a black OL outfit, which showed her perfect figure to the fullest, like a ripe pear.

Under the black OL uniform, you can see the other party's calves wearing black stockings.

The black stockings are like the other person's second layer of skin, making the other person's already slender legs even more perfect.

"Hello, Principal Ye, I am Ji Xiaozhu, the chairman of Erfeiyan..."

The beautiful woman took the initiative to come over and extended her hand to say hello.

Ye Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the boss of an established manufacturer like Er Feiyan was actually a woman in her twenties.

Has Erfeiyan been acquired and annexed?

But surprise is surprise.

Ye Chen shook hands with the other party and invited him to sit down.

Ji Xiaozhu was obviously of a direct nature and told his purpose.

She hopes that Er Feiyan can become a sponsor of the Star Team.

Not just the regular season.

But a sponsor for the entire season.

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

People in the e-sports circle are not very optimistic about Star Team, they just want to gain some popularity.

So we only sponsor the regular season.

Er Feiyan is quite heroic here.

It's the whole season right from the start.

Ye Chen naturally would not refuse and nodded directly in agreement.

But soon, Ji Xiaozhu in front of him said: "Er Feiyan's current financial situation is not very good, so we can only spend three million yuan as sponsorship fee for this season!"

three million?

Hearing this, it’s not just the teachers on site.

Even Ye Chen frowned.

Now Star Academy has entered the e-sports industry.

Naturally, he knows the standards of sponsorship fees very well.

To put it simply, a team like LGD that can only play in the regular season will definitely not make it to the playoffs.

They only sign for the regular season, and the sponsorship fee is basically 300,000 to 800,000.

After all, the own brand logo can only be displayed during the regular season.

Thirty to eight hundred thousand is very reasonable.

Star Team can get millions because of the attention brought by Star Academy, so the price is at a premium!

…

If the team is strong enough, there is a great hope of entering the playoffs.

Then the sponsorship fee is basically around three million.

If there are star players in the team and the attention is high enough.

Then the sponsorship fee can be higher.

And if the team has the strength to enter the world game, the sponsorship fee will naturally be higher.

After all, once you enter the world game.

The scope of publicity can spread to the world.

The League of Legends World Game is the event with the highest number of online viewers in the world.

So for a team of this level.

The sponsorship fee starts at five million, and ten million is not impossible.

And now, the boss of Er Feiyan wants to sign a sponsorship for the entire season, but is only willing to pay three million.

To be honest, it's too low!

When the team enters the playoffs, any sponsorship will not be lower than this price.

Not to mention entering the world game.

Although the other party is beautiful, beauty cannot be eaten.

Sponsors of peripheral products can be said to be the main source of income for e-sports teams.

It is impossible to give Er Feiyan a mere three million.

So Ye Chen immediately refused.

However, Ji Xiaozhu should have expected the reaction after the quotation, so without waiting for Ye Chen to speak, he continued: "Our Er Feiyan will launch a series of the latest e-sports keyboard, mouse and headset this month!"

"This set of keyboard, mouse and headset will be our Er Feiyan's most popular product this year, sold in online stores and offline!"

"During the period of our sponsorship contract, for every single item or set sold, we will share 10% of the profit of the product with Xingchen Academy..."

"Mechanical keyboards, minus various costs, marketing costs, channel fees, etc., each profit is about 40 yuan."

"The profit of the mouse is 30 yuan."

"The profit of the headset is 50 yuan..."

"If it is a set, because the total price is more favorable, the profit is about 80 yuan."

Ye Chen smiled immediately after hearing this.

It's not that this profit-sharing agreement brought any surprise to Ye Chen.

Er Feiyan is now completely cold.

You can't even see it on weekdays, let alone buy it.

With Er Feiyan's sales, it is unexpected that these keyboards and mice can sell 1,000 sets.

Unless it can be popular, there is no money at all.

But at this moment, Ye Chen has understood the other party's plan.

The other party obviously wants to take a gamble.

Take 3 million sponsorship fees and 10% profit share.

To bet that the Star Team can enter the World Championship this year.

After all, once the Star Team enters the World Championship, Er Feiyan, as a sponsor, will definitely receive a huge amount of attention.

Thereby driving the sales of Er Feiyan's products.

But to be honest, Er Feiyan actually has a better choice.

The other party can be more cautious and choose a team that can stably enter the playoffs and may enter the World Championship, and offer this condition.

The other party will most likely agree.

If you stably enter the playoffs, there will be a lot of attention.

If you are lucky, the other party enters the World Championship, it will undoubtedly make more money.

Choosing such a team is more reliable than choosing the Star Team.

This is the most in line with Er Feiyan's interests.

And now, Er Feiyan has found his own team.

What does this mean?

It means that the other party is really optimistic about his own team.

Why would the other party be willing to place such a big bet when no one in the e-sports circle is optimistic about the Star Team?

Ji Xiaozhu was straightforward, and Ye Chen was not the type to beat around the bush.

Looking directly at Ji Xiaozhu's clear eyes, Ye Chen asked directly, "Why is Miss Ji so optimistic about the Star Team?"
