Cartoonist Cai Jie recently (20th) appeared at the book fair to promote the comic books created by her and self-financed 6-figure investment, and a large group of friends such as friends Zhuang Siming and "Duck King" Ho Ho-man attended the event to support.
She said that the story of the comic book was a novel work from 6 years ago, and now she and the cartoonist have spent 6 figures each to optimize the comic book and republish it, hoping that there will be more opportunities to develop into a movie in the future.
Although I know that the current market is poor and the investment risk is higher, I feel that self-financing has more freedom, and I am confident that my investment can return on its investment.
When asked if the comic story would be performed if it was made into a film and television work, she said no: "I came from a film background, and I have never given up, but I am currently mainly acting, if I am a screenwriter or director, I will focus on these two aspects, and the performance will be handled by better professionals, but I may consider a cameo role."
Asked if she would ask her rumored boyfriend Huang Zongze (Bosco) to help sell the book, she smiled and said: "He's too busy, let him contact me, if it is remade into a film and television work, I hope he will invest a little."
