It's not that Deep Space America hasn't hired people. The company now has more than thirty people, but these people can only do some of the work he assigned them, and they can't do it alone.

It is impossible to cultivate slowly like Deep Space China. He needs to find some experienced and well-connected experts to help him.

The first thing that came to his mind was Dante, who had just become the vice president of Bantam Books. From all aspects, Dante was a very suitable candidate.

Dante is very experienced in book distribution, sales, and marketing. He has been immersed in the book industry for so long and has a wide network of contacts.

Jimmy's idea is that the company will divide the books and movies and TV series into two major parts, and then set up two teams to help him take charge. If Dante can be recruited, at least he will not have to worry about the books.

But now there are two problems.

First, Dante occupies a high position in Bantam Company, with good salary and status, so the possibility of poaching him is zero.

Second, after poaching Dante, their company's cooperation with Bantam may be affected.

So after thinking for a long time, Jimmy focused on Dante's assistant Cambot.

Canbote has been with Dante for seven or eight years. There will be no problems in business. His connections may be worse than Dante's, but they won't be too different. In addition, if Canbote is recruited, at least he will be able to follow Banji in the future.

The chicken's cooperation can all be given to him.

But you must talk to Dante about this matter first and see what his opinion is. If Dante resists, Jimmy will not forcefully dig it.

To this end, Jimmy called Dante.

Dante on the other end of the phone seemed to have just woken up. As soon as the call was connected, he complained, "Jimmy, is it too late to give me New Year greetings now? I'm on vacation. If you don't have anything particularly important, I'll do it next time."

You want to treat me to dinner."

Jimmy laughed: "You can eat as many meals as you like. I won't talk nonsense to you anymore. I called you because I wanted to ask you to borrow someone."

"Who to borrow?"

"Cambot."

"I thought you were borrowing someone. If you need Cambot to do something, just tell him. You are already familiar with him." Dante said with a smile.

"The time I borrowed may be a bit long."

"How..." Dante suddenly reacted, "You want to poach people from me?"

"That's right, it's just poaching people."

"You are thinking too much. Canbot has been with me for so many years. Soon I will put him under me to manage a department. Even if I am willing to let him go, do you think he is willing to go?"

"You don't have to worry about whether he wants it or not. I'll just ask you if you agree."

Dante was silent for a while and asked, "Jimmy, tell me the truth, have you already told Cambot about this?"

"No, you know what I do, I always follow the rules. If you don't nod, I won't go to him to talk about this matter. If you don't agree, just treat it as if it never happened." Jimmy said.

"I believe you." Dante thought for a moment and continued, "But, Jimmy, let me tell you the truth, I don't want to let Canbot go. He is a good helper. Even if he is not by my side later, he will always be there for me."

The support within the company.”

"You have more than one assistant, and there are many people you can train."

"But Cambot works best."

Jimmy knew that this negotiation would not be easy, so he thought about it and said, "Do you remember the last time I brought the manuscript of "Fatal Identity" to you?"

"Remember, of course I remember, I wasn't very optimistic about YU's transformation at that time. Later, after reading the manuscript, I realized that I was wrong. Because of this, you won't let me give you Cambot as compensation, right?"

"Of course not." Jimmy smiled, "What I want to tell you is that I actually had two manuscripts in my bag at that time, namely "Resident Evil 2" and "Deep Space"."

As soon as Jimmy said this, Dante knew what he meant.

"What is Deep Space?"

"A full-length science fiction novel."

Jimmy didn't say much, but it was enough. With YU's current reputation, as long as his science fiction novels were published, it would be impossible for them to sell poorly.

After a while, Dante spoke again, "I'm going to end my vacation early tomorrow, so you can come to the company. As for Cambot, go talk to him yourself. If he doesn't want to leave, don't blame me."

Jimmy knew that the matter was done, and said with a hearty smile: "Don't worry."

After hanging up the phone, Dante shook his head. He didn't know what Jimmy meant by "don't worry" at the end. Did he mean that he wouldn't be blamed, or that he would definitely be able to poach Cambot?

However, if Cambot can really develop well in Deep Space Company, Dante will also be very happy. Yu Zi, they have been good friends for many years, and of course he will be happy if his friend can develop well. Yu Gong, Kan

Porter is with Deep Space Company, and the cooperation between the two companies will be closer in the future.

…

Jimmy finally poached Cambot. He was such a big liar, and the Deep Space Company was developing rapidly during this period. It was really difficult for ordinary people to stand up to it.

As soon as Cambot arrived, he took over the negotiations for the two novels "Deep Space" and "Resident Evil 2".

Jimmy suddenly felt much more relaxed, and began to gradually focus on film and television dramas and peripheral development.

In the end, "The Second World" only received 331 million U.S. dollars at the North American box office, which was 20 million U.S. dollars behind "Jurassic Park." Universal Pictures couldn't bear to make it, so it stopped making any more efforts.

There's no point in trying hard, after all, "Jurassic Park" was also produced by them.

Rushing to the end, even if they can rush through, it will not affect the result. Anyway, first and second place belong to their family.

However, although it did not win the box office championship in North American film history, it is very likely to win the global box office championship. At present, the box office performance of several subsequent places where it was released is good, and most of them have surpassed "Jurassic Park".

Moreover, there is a box office like China. Although the box office is not large, it still has more than 10 million US dollars.

If this momentum continues, "The Second World" is likely to surpass "Jurassic Park" and become the world's first movie with a box office of over one billion US dollars.

Since the release of the "Second World" movie, more and more people have come to Jimmy to inquire about the copyrights, but Jimmy has put them on hold because he is in no hurry to throw away these copyrights.

In addition, he is still collecting copyrights.

Previously, he asked people in the company to collect new comics published in the past few years, hoping to find gold from them and completely build the industry chain.

The staff also worked hard to collect comic information in the past five years, whether it is well-known or unknown.

Jimmy planned to first screen out some works that were not very good at all, then screen out some works that were unavailable, and finally show the remaining works to Yu Dong.

Unknowingly, Jimmy has become somewhat dependent on Dong in the selection of works. It seems that as long as the works that Yu Dong thinks are good, they can always sell well. People who Yu Dong thinks are good can always give him some surprises.

The writers signed before have proven this time and time again.

So even if Yu Dong doesn't draw comics, Jimmy still wants to show these comics to Yu Dong so that he can have confidence in his heart.

…

Jimmy arrived in Shanghai the day before New Year's Eve. The reason he came at this time was because he wanted to celebrate the Chinese New Year. He has always liked the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.

After arriving in Shanghai, Jimmy quickly contacted Yu Dong.

Yu Dongye had just returned to Shanghai with Cheng Yanqiu, and before he even put down his luggage, he received a call from Jimmy.

If Jimmy hadn't said that he had already arrived in Shanghai, it would have been impossible for Yu Dong to see him. It's almost the Chinese New Year. Are you talking to me about work?

But Jimmy didn't stay long and threw a laptop to him. "The comics are all in it. You should take some time to read it."

After putting down the computer, Jimmy was about to leave. Yu Dong wanted to stay with him for dinner, but he smiled and said, "It's too boring for you to go to Shanghai to celebrate the New Year. I'm going to find a lively place to play. I'm leaving today. I'm in a hurry."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After Jimmy left, Yu Dong put the computer aside. He planned to spend the next two days with his family to celebrate the New Year, and other things would be discussed later.

And this year is also his first year after getting married, so it will definitely be different.

The new daughter-in-law celebrated the New Year at home for the first time, which made Yu Dong's parents extremely excited. After so many years, the family finally had a new member.

The new house has been decorated a long time ago, and there are all kinds of red inside.

The bed is red, the quilt is red, the curtains are red, and even the slippers are red.

There is also a large 29-inch color TV. As soon as Yu Dong saw this color TV, he laughed: "The two of you really spent a lot of money on it."

Cheng Yanqiu also laughed, "It's a pity that we are not here often, so the TV is wasted here. I will tell my parents later to move the TV to the living room downstairs and use it on a regular basis."

"Okay, tell them later."

It’s not just a TV that I spent a lot of money on. There is also an air conditioner installed in the room. Just these two appliances cost more than 10,000 yuan.

The original cement floor was replaced with a wooden floor, which was polished to a high shine. There was also an exquisite dressing table placed next to the bed, which looked expensive.

Yu Dong knew that these were his wife's books that his parents had saved for him. He probably thought that they would not be able to spend their money later, so he spent all the money in advance.

…

The next morning, Qin Fang stuffed a stack of red envelopes into her daughter-in-law's hands.

Cheng Yanqiu looked at the pile of red envelopes in his hand and wondered, "Mom, what does this mean?"

"Keep it, you'll need it tonight." Qin Fang said with a smile, "There will definitely be a lot of children coming to visit in the evening. If you come to one, you will give a red envelope. There are about thirty here."

"Will there be so many children here?" Cheng Yanqiu asked in surprise.

"Thirty is not necessarily enough. You will know that tonight."

Not long after the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, people began to come to the house, including adults and children. Cheng Yanqiu remembered what her mother-in-law had told her in the morning, and quickly took out the red envelopes and gave one to each child.

Gradually, more and more people came, and seeing that the red envelopes were not enough, Qin Fang was prepared and gave dozens more to Cheng Yanqiu.

It wasn't until eleven o'clock that the people who came to visit gradually dispersed.

Cheng Yanqiu probably counted and gave out more than forty red envelopes.
