Big Manga

"No way, someone is so interested in my new manga?"

At the dinner table, Meng Huo was surprised when he heard Xu Jing's intentions. He just revealed an idea to the readers yesterday. He hadn't considered the specific details of the new comics yet. He didn't expect such a big reaction outside.

"And why no one came to me directly..."

Meng Huo looked at the secretary who was sitting at the dining table, and the secretary shook his head at him, indicating that he had not received a similar invitation.

Xu Jing laughed: "It should be that they haven't come so soon, if they want to find you, they have to be fully prepared."

It has not been a day since the news of the new comic was revealed, and most interested people are considering it, and He Xi, as the number one cartoonist in China, no one wants to contact him for this matter without preparation. Xu Jing's testing is a good way.

Of course, there are inevitably some people who want to see the situation first.

"That's it..."

Meng Huo reluctantly accepted Xu Jing's statement, he frowned slightly, and had a premonition that the next period of time would be more sad.

"President, I want to ask." At this time, Ye Xiong suddenly opened his mouth and asked Xu Jing: "They want Teacher He Xi's new comics, right? Have you made any bids for it?"

This question made other people look at Xu Jing.

"Yes, and the price is not low..." Xu Jing took a sip of tea calmly, and quoted a number: "The lowest bid is 100 million Huaxia coins!"

In an instant, the others took a breath, Ye Xiong was dumbfounded, 100 million Huaxia coins. This figure could have been equivalent to the annual income of Phoenix Company a few years ago. And now that He Xi's new comics haven't come out yet, the choice of themes alone is worth such a high price...

As soon as this news spread, I don't know how many people will be crazy about it!

However, think about it from the actual effect. Buying He Xi's new comics with 100 million Huaxia coins is actually not a disadvantage. The annual advertising investment of those large companies and sports companies exceeds this figure. large-scale advertising for several years.

"Teacher He Xi, if you don't take this money, it will be for nothing!"

Zhou Qian excitedly told Meng Huo that many people at the dinner table had the same idea as her, and He Xi's new comics were worth hundreds of millions. But this is only the subject matter, and has nothing to do with the content of the manga: "Teacher, you can choose the subject you like to write.

Then hit the money in that industry, it's the best of both worlds. "

They knew that Meng Huo absolutely didn't like being interfered in the selection of new comics, but in this matter, he could make a windfall while making his own choice - even Xu Jing thought it was a good idea. But he didn't say anything.

Alice nodded in agreement: "This money can be used for charity."

Since money can be taken, it is natural not to waste it. Meng Huo wanted to draw cartoons of this kind of skill, no matter what, it would have a positive impact on the industry. It was only natural for others to pay a little money. If he didn't pay anything, he would be too lucky.

Unfortunately, Meng Huo didn't think so.

"I'm not going to charge money for this subject."

He replied that he was free to paint whatever he wanted, and if he made his own choice and charged money from others, although no one would criticize this kind of thing, it was still not in line with his philosophy.

Xu Jing nodded secretly. He guessed Meng Huo's choice. In fact, Meng Huo is not a qualified entrepreneur. He adheres to many principles in his work. He will fall behind in the fierce market competition...but he has the ability to overcome this defect, so there will be no problem.

"Okay, that's all for now, let's eat!"

Xu Jing clapped his hands and called everyone to stop talking and enjoy lunch.

Alice sat with her mother, though the atmosphere at the dinner table was warm. But the blond woman didn't seem to like to talk, she kept observing the interaction of everyone with a smile on her face—especially the interaction between Meng Huo and Alice.

at this table. Meng Huo and Alice sat far away, and there were very few conversations and interactions. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with it even by observation, but the caring woman still found something tricky.

After lunch, several cars departed from the hotel to Manga Island.

"Has your relationship with that child improved again?" Alice sat with her mother. She drank a lot of wine, her face was a little red, and she was about to squint in the car, but was suddenly caught by her mother. The words startled me.

"What did you say?"

Alice's drinking capacity was good, but after her mother's words, the drunkenness disappeared in an instant.

"I saw that you were turning vegetables for him." The woman laughed as she brushed her daughter's hair. If she knew her daughter, Mo Ruomu, if she had only guessed before, now she knew Alice's reaction now.

Just now at the dining table, Alice turned the turntable a few times, on the surface it was convenient for her to choose dishes, but the woman noticed that the dishes were not Alice’s favorite dishes. On the contrary, there were always a few popular dishes that were accidentally transferred to Meng Huo before.

Maybe even Meng Huo didn't notice this, but the woman did.

"Alice also has such a side..."

The woman felt a little relieved, she never thought her daughter would have such a feminine side before. Although Alice has always been good at taking care of others, she has never shown this kind of care for a man in such detail.

She can be a good wife, the woman thought so, but felt sad at the same time, the possibility of the two children being together was too small.

In front of them, Xu Jing and Meng Huo were sitting in another car, and they started talking about what happened before lunch again.

"Many people will come to you in the future. Of course, how to reject them is up to you, but I have to remind you that you must not reject all these people." Xu Jing reminded Meng Huo: "Some people should You must see what you see."

Meng Huo nodded: "I understand."

Xu Jing's meaning is very simple, there must be some important figures who come here for the new comics, and these important figures cannot be turned away at all, even if they cannot agree to their request, they still have to be politely received when others come to visit.

"I believe you can handle this matter..." Xu Jing looked at Meng Huo nodding, and his expression relaxed: "Speaking of which, are you interested in tea?"

Meng Huo was stunned, why did he suddenly mention tea?

"I mean that...cough..." Seeing that Meng Huo didn't understand, Xu Jing coughed in embarrassment: "The tea ceremony can also be included as an alternative theme for the new comics!"

Meng Huo couldn't help but smile bitterly. After talking about his feelings for a long time, Xu Jing was also interested in his new comics.

"Can I draw this to help tea plantation?"

He thinks it is because other people are too mythical about himself, his new comics are not so great.

"Why not? Even if you can't help tea planting, at least it's okay to advertise for those tea merchants?" Xu Jing thought carefully. He also suddenly thought of it when he was eating just now. Since others want Meng Huo's new Manga, why can't it be used in the tea ceremony?

If He Xi were to draw a tea ceremony cartoon, no matter what, those tea merchants would inevitably provide them with tea, right? In order for He Xi to draw comics and promote her products, there will definitely be tea merchants who will take the initiative to send top-quality tea...

At that time, won't Xu Jing also be blessed?

"No, no, this is too ridiculous."

Meng Huo said with a smile, Xu Jing's idea is too whimsical, in fact, he can draw tea ceremony, but what he said before did not include this kind of thing, and it is hard to change it now.

He expressed such an opinion to Xu Jing, Xu Jing was a little disappointed, but in the end he didn't continue to press.

"How is the preparation for the carnival?" Xu Jing focused on another matter. The carnival in Manga Island will be held in one month. This carnival is bigger than last year's carnival, but The readiness has not been reported yet.

"It's almost there." Meng Huo nodded and said, "The most critical manpower problem has also been solved. We have recruited a lot of summer workers in the university town, and they will start preparing for us after the holiday this month."

For this carnival, the Phoenix Company has been preparing for several months. Together with the left-behind college students, the preliminary work is seamless.

"That's good, I'm looking forward to the arrival of the carnival..."

Xu Jing smiled expectantly.

After arriving at Manga Island, Meng Huo sent someone to send Xu Jing and his wife to have a rest. Their purpose of coming this time has been achieved, but it is impossible to return to Ninghai immediately, so they just stayed in Manga Island for a day.

Alice also left, and Meng Huo checked his phone. Although it was not yet working hours, he still walked to the office with his secretary.

"teacher!"

"Teacher He Xi!"

When they first walked into the elevator, Ye Xiong and the editor-in-chief of the girl's editorial department got out of the car behind and hurried over.

"What's wrong?"

Meng Huo found it strange to see the agitated expressions of the two of them.

"Teacher He Xi, is this new work a girl manga or a boy manga!?"

Ye Xiong asked straightforwardly. After learning that Meng Huo's new manga was so popular at noon, the chief editors of the two editorial departments couldn't sit still. They both wanted this new manga, so they quarreled all the way on the road. But the scope given by Meng Huo couldn't tell whether it was a boy or a girl, which whetted their appetite.

"The scope is some ball games and board games... No matter how you look at it, this should be a boy's direction, right?" Ye Xiong thought so, hoping that Meng Huo would give a positive answer, and completely shut down all the girls' manga department. heart.

"Well... this... I didn't think about it..." However, unexpectedly, Meng Huo seemed to be very entangled in this question: "I have ideas for boy comics, and I have ideas for girl comics... sorry , I can’t give you an answer right now.”

The scope of the new comics this time is actually not large. Meng Huo refused to answer the orientation of the readers, which would give him more choices. The editor-in-chiefs of the two editorial departments were a little disappointed when they heard the answer, but at the same time they were relieved. They both still had hope. (to be continued)
