Big Manga

"He's just crazy!"

"It's just nonsense, what is he thinking in his head!"

On the street, the heads of several chain stores left Phoenix Company angrily. Many of them watched the fun with a superior mentality, but they didn't expect Phoenix Company to say "Welcome to leave" mercilessly to them. The cartoonist named He Xi didn't think much of them.

"I'm furious!"

"It's just a cartoonist. Has He Xi's IQ been eaten by dogs? Without our participation, this island still wants to develop? What a joke!"

"I want to apply to the headquarters for transfer from here. The cartoonist's attitude is too bad, and there is no possibility of cooperation."

"Me too, let them play alone in this ghost place!"

Many shops had the idea of ​​leaving. Zhang De of Universal Cinemas looked a little better when he heard the conversation of these people. Although he achieved his goal this time, he was really angry at Meng Huo's words.

"When we go back, we must spread the word about this, so that everyone should leave here. I'll see how the Phoenix Company plays!"

Zhang De glanced back at the building of Phoenix Company, thinking in his heart that he deserved it. As soon as today's news spread, the businesses in the entire Manga Island would know the attitude of Phoenix Company, which would trigger a wave of departures. Without their well-known chain stores, Manga Island would lose even its last attraction. It would be a question of whether or not Phoenix would not be able to develop the island, let alone develop the island.

In the building, after sending away the heads of several chain stores, Alice returned to Meng Huo's office.

"Meng Huo, how can you say that they are welcome to leave?" She said with a worried face, "This is good. Those who were still watching have to leave. What if they all leave?"

"There are few merchants coming this time. It is impossible to affect everyone." Meng Huo disagreed: "The companies that will come to Manga Island to buy properties are all big companies. Since they have established branches here, they have not observed for a year or so Time, it is impossible to leave easily."

These merchants in Manga Island are all well-known companies in China. Since these companies have started their business in one place, it is unlikely that they will leave after only seeing the benefits for a few months. The reason why Meng Huo spoke so excessively was also for this reason, it was impossible for all the chain stores in Manga Island to leave, no matter how harsh his words were. No more than two-thirds of the stores will be the last to leave.

"Meng Huo...you don't want them to leave on purpose, do you?"

Alice seemed to hear the meaning of Meng Huo's words.

"Well, if there is no way to cooperate with each other, then of course it would be better to drive away some people." Meng Huo replied with a smile: "Kick out some people and take over their facilities. If Manga Island develops smoothly, then regardless of culture We can still occupy an absolute advantage in business, and the remaining batch of businesses will no longer be able to resist us."

This is somewhat different from Meng Huo's original plan. When he first imagined the comic island, he imagined that Phoenix Company would dominate the source of comic products, and then other businesses would cooperate to create a small island where everyone could benefit. In this scenario Phoenix is ​​not directly involved in commercial activities. They are guides and providers of comics industry merchandise, but not directly to consumers.

Meng Huo felt that this was a win-win model. Phoenix can maintain its core business without too much financial pressure. But he didn't expect that these merchants in Manga Island would not cooperate at all. According to the current situation, even if the flow of people in Manga Island came up, other businesses would not allow comics to enter their corporate culture, and eventually Manga Island would become a Ordinary commercial island.

That's not what he wants to see. What Meng Huo wants is a place full of culture, and if there is no cooperation from the company, he can only grasp this culture by himself. This time, a group of people were driven away. If they took over their things, plus the fans who came to start their own businesses, 70% to 80% of Manga Island would be under the jurisdiction of Phoenix Company.

The Phoenix Company can commercially expand the comics according to its own ideas, and the remaining 20 to 30 percent cannot resist this wave, and will eventually compromise and seek cooperation with them.

But there's a big problem here...

"Where do we get so much money and people!!"

Alice saw through Meng Huo's thoughts and said bitterly. The main problem faced by Phoenix Company is money. As long as there is money, it is not difficult to find manpower in the commercial street. money. Now we have to acquire an animation company and prepare animation, and the money is running out.

In the current state, how can they rent out the site of Manga Island, and how can they keep it open?

"If you don't have any money, just earn it." Meng Huo said, "I will first pay the rent in arrears for one year, and if I can't, I will go for loans and financing."

Manga Island is the property of Meng's family. Meng Huo felt that he should be able to apply for a one-year postponement of rent payment. They were responsible for all these troubles, so they should take some responsibility! If they refused to default, Meng Huo could think of other ways to pay, but in this way, his relationship with the Meng family would become cold.

"It's not a problem that the rent is not expensive, but we need a lot of money to control so many stores!" Alice said, clutching her head, "This is a lot of money. The stores on Manga Island are obviously losing money now. If we take it down, we will lose hundreds of thousands of dollars every month just to maintain it."

Manga Island enjoys tax incentives, but even so, the manpower and material resources required to maintain so many stores are not easy. The hundreds of thousands are roughly estimated, and it is difficult for Alice to know the specific figure. But she is very clear about one thing, as long as the flow of people in Manga Island does not increase, the Phoenix Company that takes over here is equivalent to a black hole that absorbs wealth on its back.

"How are we going to get the money?"

she said distressedly.

"Earn if you don't have money, just let go of your hands and feet." Meng Huo's eyes flashed, and he said: "As long as you use your brains, games, movies, animations, comics, plus the advantages of Manga Island itself... put all Thinking about all the possibilities, it shouldn’t be difficult to earn this amount of money in a short period of time.”

Alice was taken aback: "Meng Huo, do you...do you want to release other works?"

She had a thought, if Meng Huo releases other works in a short period of time, there is indeed a possibility of a large amount of money, but in this case, the subject matter of the works is limited, the comics are drawn quickly but the earning cycle takes a long time, the fastest to get money It's supposed to be a game and an animated movie, but both of those take time to make...

"Wait... isn't there Pokemon?".

Alice suddenly remembered this game. This game has been remade, but "clannad" has been released for two months, and during this time, the game production department began to remake "Pokemon". Meng Huo is very concerned about this remake. No matter where he is, he always checks it every few days. The remake of the game is carried out step by step according to his guidance. She doesn't know how far it has progressed.

Is "Pokemon" coming out soon?

"Speaking of which, rebuilding isn't that difficult..."

The more Alice thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. The monster setting of "Pokemon" was completed a long time ago, and remaking does not mean that every detail must be remade. Many of the previous achievements can be directly used in the new version, and it seems that it is not surprising that it is released now.

if it is like this……

"Sister Xi, please call He Xi and Zhou Qian for me!"

While Alice was thinking, Meng Huo called his secretary and called He Xi and Zhou Qian. Alice was even more convinced when he heard that, Meng Huo called He Xi, it was indeed about "Pokemon"!

But unexpectedly, after Hexi and Zhou Qian arrived, Meng Huo gave them other tasks.

"Joseph, we are going to take over some stores soon, and we don't have enough manpower. You will be in charge of this first...Zhou Qian, in the future you will be in charge of the company's comic product development and..."

Meng Huo talked to these two people for half an hour. Alice was stunned by what he said. A large-scale reader gathering was held in Manga Island to make money, and the details of this event were beyond the imagination of her and the other two women.

Meng Huo wants to carry out a large-scale transformation of Manga Island, incorporating many things that Alice and others have never heard of, and then there are many important activities-such as announcing the animation of "Detective Conan" on the spot. The game "Pokemon" seems to have not been completed yet, but Meng Huo said that he does not rule out the possibility of providing a trial version during the event...

There are various other interesting things, and the possibility of more new works is not ruled out.

Meng Huo put forward a lot of ideas for this event, but he is very conservative about the new work. Except for "Detective Conan", which is confirmed to be animated, other new works are uncertain. Alice figured out his plan. He wanted to use Manga Island's activities to increase the island's popularity and traffic, and make money to relieve financial pressure.

Such a plan completely overturned Alice's inherent point of view. She always felt that Manga Island must first have money to develop slowly, but Meng Huo thought in the opposite direction. He intends to kill two birds with one stone, first use a party to attract people, so as to quickly spread the popularity and reputation of Manga Island.

"Can this work?".

Alice was a little worried, but thinking of the lively He Xi celebration in Ninghai, she felt that with Meng Huo's appeal, there might be a chance of success. And using He Xi's name to attract the first group of people, if they can grasp the psychology of this group of people, Manga Island will be able to move forward on the right track.

And Meng Huo's idea is very good. The activities he proposed are for the purpose of attracting people and making money, but there are many details of interaction with readers. New works are the core element of this plan. However, if the expected number of tourists is found to be up to standard during the planning stage of the event, Meng Huo will not propose new works. If the number of tourists is not enough, he will use more new works activities to attract readers. (to be continued...) ()
