The Saint Seiya series of toys were put into production in late December and there was no holiday on New Year's Day.

The workers didn't care. They almost all came from the mainland and had experienced the painful days of having no money. Now they have money to earn, so they don't care whether they are on vacation or not. They are not that pretentious.

What's more, Yin Jun strictly followed the rules of later generations. He would pay at least 50% of his overtime salary during holidays, and the night shift would increase by 100% of his salary.

If it weren't for the fact that Xiangjiang had no habit of weekends, or if it weren't for the limit of Sister Le's patience, Yin Jun would have planned to either have a holiday on Saturday or calculate a 30% overtime pay on Saturday.

In fact, the boy always felt that the work efficiency of a factory never lies in how many hours it starts every week.

Just look at the state-owned factories in the 1990s, you will know that if they start construction for one month, they are not as efficient and output as small private factories that are ten times smaller than themselves.

Why?

Because workers are not motivated, they will take so much or not, and they will take so much or bad things.

If it were you, would you rather be so stupid and exhausted, and be called a fool?

Private enterprises are different. The bosses are responsible for their own profits and losses. If you want to make money, you must run the factory seriously and go to business.

The same goes for the workers below. If they do more, they will be more paid. If they don’t do well, they will be lazy and they will get out of here.

Compared with these two things, how could they not work hard?

Therefore, Dongguan and Nanwan, a generation of family factories in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai completely defeated the state-owned factory model and became the most important force supporting China's light industry and living electronics industries.

In Xiangjiang, this model has always existed because they have no state-owned factories and only private enterprises.

Therefore, in the 1970s, various products in Xiangjiang began to be sold all over the world. If it weren’t for the British and later deliberately causing trouble and leading Xiangjiang into a dead end, they would be backed up by the vigorous development of the mainland in the future. Singapore did not even count in front of Xiangjiang.

With decades of experience, Yin Jun believes that the work efficiency of the factory lies in people.

To be precise, on the workers.

If you want them to feel that this factory has a great potential, behave fairly, be able to see the fruits of your labor, and give them generously, then they will work hard.

It’s not that it’s not like the Red Sea factory, which desperately squeezes the spirit of workers, can produce good products.

Yin Jun is disgusted with Baodao’s OEM model.

The Chinese are hardworking enough, and they don’t need such high-pressure management, and they can do well.

Therefore, the factory managed by Yin Jun has always been very efficient.

This has been the case since the original Kirin Printing Factory.

Although most of the Qilin Printing Factory uses recycled paper, the quality of the printing is particularly good. Whether it is "Qilin Daily", "Qilin Weekly", or single-line books, tailoring, typesetting, and printing, this rigorous and serious attitude not only satisfies the people of Xiangjiang, but also is deeply loved by European, American, Japanese and Korean comic fans.

Especially the Qilin Daily, it is completely free, but compared to Ming Pao, Oriental Daily and other newspapers, it is completely different.

In other words, there are no plans to operate externally now, otherwise there will be more than 20 newspapers who want to print their own newspapers and magazines at the Kirin Printing Factory.

They are also very powerful and know that the printing technology and management of Qilin Printing Factory can already ignore the printing costs to the greatest extent and make profits through advertising.

Zhou Yuping mentioned this matter to Yin Jun that if this part of the newspapers and magazines were printed, the profit point of the Kirin Printing Factory could be more than 5%.

But Yin Jun refused without thinking.

Now the employment pressure in Xiangjiang is already very high. By the beginning of 1983, it will be like avalanches in all walks of life. If the Kirin Printing Factory makes dozens of printing factories go bankrupt, it will lead to thousands of people being unemployed, which is not great.

In addition to Qilin Printing Factory, Qilin Toy Factory is even more powerful.

The stable income of 40 million US dollars can represent how good and best-selling the toys they make.

Although a large part of it is because of the popularity of "Transformers", if you make toys, they will break after playing for a while. The workmanship is not fine, how can others keep buying them?

Now we start making toys from the Saint Seiya series, and the same is true.

After recruiting 4,300 people, the Kirin Toy Factory had a total of 9,500 people.

The scale of such a close to 10,000 people is not completely clear, but the method of the elderly leading new people.

Cheng Sheng, the general manager who has been working hard at the grassroots level, asked the old employees to intern in the process of how to do the Saint Seiya series toys.

When the newly recruited employees joined the company, he transferred half of them to the Transformers Toy Department, and the other half was led by the elderly to do various processes of toy making.

Because they are all industrial processes and use newcomers' assembly line operations, newcomers don't need to learn too much at the beginning. They just need to learn two or three work steps. One month is enough for them to master.

A newcomer like this will start to learn more process steps after about a year and then transfer to another job position.

This is because if you are in the same assembly line for a long time, then the mental pressure will be very great. If you change it from time to time, you will not only cultivate more all-round talents in the process, but also make them mentally healthy.

The cartoon of "Saint Seiya" was produced by Toei Animation of Japan.

Japanese. My workmanship is as outstanding as ever, especially when Yin Jun specifically requested it.

"Saint Seiya" in his previous life was not very good in animation effects, especially fighting effects. However, more than 20 years later, the workmanship of "Celestial Chapter" and so on was too delicate.

Of course, this is also related to the progress of the times and the progress of computer special effects, and Yin Jun cannot expect it to be the same as it will be in 30 years.

But at least in terms of the dazzling effect of fighting, Yin Jun has basic needs.

It’s not that I can’t do it, but I’m used to having an animation photography station on weekdays and simplifying the process.

Since Yin Jun had the requirements, they naturally did more finely.

When the broadcast officially started in early January, they had already produced 40 episodes of "Galaxy War".

According to the playback speed of two episodes a week, the inventory on Qilin TV is enough.

When contacting a global cooperative TV station in December to negotiate the playback of "Saint Seiya" cartoon, Yin Jun understood why in the Internet era, data analysis and worship of big IPs are so important.

Even if Si Niang's movie is ruined, there will be suckers who value his powerful attractiveness in his works, thus investing hundreds of millions of capital to adapt his new novel into a movie to release it.

"Saint Seiya" is such a big ip.

After more than two years of hard work, as a representative work of the Youthful School, "Saint Seiya" has countless fans around the world.

The comic by Masami Hata has a great entry point. It starts with Greek mythology and incorporates Eastern elements, which is simply all-in-one.

No wonder he can live a comfortable life with "Saint Seiya".

When people heard that this time it was broadcasting "Saint Seiya" and many TV stations did not even watch the movie, they decided to buy it.

After such a round of negotiations, the global broadcasting rights price reached 3 million US dollars in one episode, which was just like robbing money.

The production cost of "Saint Seiya" plus the dubbing of various versions is only 200,000 US dollars per episode, and it is included in the project of cooperation with Toei Animation. The price given by Asahi TV broadcasting offsets the production cost.

The price of Japanese and American broadcasting copyright is indeed the most expensive in the world, more expensive than the Disney TV channel in the United States.

There is no way, who is the Japanese? There are at least 10 million crazy fans of "Saint Seiya"?

And Japanese anime fans are famously generous and generous. After the TV broadcast became popular, the next step is to come out of Kirin culture toys. Toei animation has the exclusive sales rights in Japanese. They still won’t make a lot of money?

Yin Jun naturally made more money.

He never expected that he could earn $3 million in one episode.

If the Galactic War chapter has good effect, then the following "Twelve Golden Palaces", "Big Dipper Chapter", "Sea King Chapter", "Pluto Chapter"... wouldn't these animations with at least 200 episodes bring 600 million US dollars to Qilin Culture?

This is still the case where Kirin culture is moral. If Yin Jun asked them to continue to use their imagination, in addition to these orthodox chapters, plus the length of the subsequent sequels of Masami Cheda, it would be easy to achieve three to five hundred episodes.

If you count so carefully, you can earn more than 1 billion US dollars by cartoons alone!

Don’t think that 1 billion US dollars is more than 3 million US dollars in a single episode, but the copyright fee for playing the episode is sold to 138 countries and regions. On average, a country only costs more than 20,000 US dollars per episode, which is not expensive at all.

With the popularity of "Saint Seiya" in their countries, Yin Jun's price doubled is basically acceptable.

However, what the boy was thinking about was not the mere playback fee, but the idea of ​​selling his doll toys after he re-attracted the fans by relying on the animation version!

You can only play for one or two years at most. The second and third rounds will definitely be the bargain price.

But if you sell toys, it will take at least ten or twenty years. Transformers toys have been sold for almost 40 years, and they can still be very happy!

As long as cartoons are constantly replayed, a single-line book can be placed on the bookshelf, and then you can adapt it into a live-action movie, then fans will always come to buy it!
Chapter completed!
