"He is crazy!"

"It's a nonsense, what is his head thinking!"

On the street, the heads of several chain stores left Phoenix Company angrily. Many of them watched the excitement with a lofty mentality. Unexpectedly, Phoenix Company would say "welcome away" to them without mercy. The cartoonist named He Xi didn't take them seriously.

"I'm furious!"

"It's just a cartoonist. Has his IQ been eaten by dogs? Without our participation, this island would like to develop? What a joke!"

"I want to apply to the headquarters to be transferred here, the cartoonist's attitude is too bad, there is no possibility of cooperation."

"Me too, leave this ghost place to them alone!"

Many stores have thoughts of leaving. Zhang De of Global Cinemas heard these people's conversations and his face was a little better. Although his goal was achieved this time, he was really angry with Meng Huo's words.

"After you go back, you must spread this matter out so that everyone will leave here. I see how Phoenix Company will play it!"

Zhang De looked back at the Phoenix Company's building, and said to himself that he deserved it. As soon as today's news spreads, the merchants on the entire comic island will know the Phoenix Company's attitude, and then a wave of departure will be triggered. Without these well-known chain stores on Manga Island, even the final attraction has disappeared. Not to mention the development of the island by Phoenix, it is a question of whether it can not lose money.

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 you welcome them to leave?" She said with a worried look: "This is good. Those who were still on the sidelines have to leave. What if they are all gone?"

"There are few merchants here. It is impossible to affect everyone." Meng Huo disapproved: "And those companies that will come to Manga Island to buy properties are big companies. Since they have established branches here, they have not observed for a year or a half. Time, it is impossible to leave easily."

These merchants on Comic Island are all well-known companies in China. Since these companies have started a business in one place, it is unlikely that they will leave after only a few months of benefits. The reason why Meng Huo said so excessively is precisely because of this, it is impossible for all the chain stores in Manga Island to leave, and his words are harsher. No more than two-thirds of the store left.

"Meng Huo...you didn't mean to let them leave, did you?"

Alice seemed to hear what Meng Huo meant.

"Well, if there is no way to cooperate with each other, of course it is better to drive away some people." Meng Huo replied with a smile: "To drive away some people and take over their facilities. If the comic island develops smoothly, regardless of culture We can still have an absolute advantage in business, and the remaining batch of businesses can no longer resist us."

This is somewhat inconsistent with Meng Huo's initial plan. When he first imagined the comic island, he imagined it as the Phoenix Company dominating the source of comic products, and then other businesses cooperated to create a small island where everyone can benefit. In this scenario, Phoenix does not directly participate in commercial activities. They are leaders and providers of comics industry products, but they will not directly face consumers.

Meng Huo thinks this is a win-win model. Phoenix is ​​able to maintain its core business without too much financial pressure. However, he did not expect that these merchants on Manga Island would not cooperate at all. According to the current situation, even if the people on Manga Island are on the rise, other businesses will not allow comics to enter their corporate culture. Eventually, Manga Island will become one. Ordinary commercial island.

That is not what he wants to see. What Meng Huo wants is a place full of culture, and if this kind of culture does not have the cooperation of enterprises, then he can only grasp it by himself. This time, a group of people have been driven away. If they take over their things and the fans who come to start their own businesses, 70% or 80% of the area of ​​Manga Island will be under the jurisdiction of Phoenix Company.

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

But there is a big problem...

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

Alice saw through Meng Huo's thoughts and said bitterly. The main problem faced by Phoenix is ​​money. As long as there is money, it’s not hard to find people in the commercial street. However, they are still in a painful transition period. Recruitment and new business redevelopment in three places are spending every aspect money. Now I have to acquire an animation company and prepare for animation, and the money is no longer squeezed out.

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

"If you don't have any money to make money," Meng Huo said, "I will default the rent for one year first. If I can't default, I will go for loans and financing.

Manga Island is the property of the Meng family. Meng Huo felt that he should be able to apply to postpone the payment of rent for one year. Originally, these troubles were caused by them, so they should take some responsibility! If they refuse to default, Meng Huo can also find other ways to pay, but in this way, the relationship between him and the Meng family will be cold.

"It's not a problem that the rent is not expensive, but to control so many shops, we also need a lot of money!" Alice said, covering her head, "This is a lot of money. Now the shops on Manga Island are obviously losing money. If we take it down, we will have to lose hundreds of thousands 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 simple. A hundred thousand is a rough estimate, and it is difficult for Alice to know the specific number. But one thing she knows very well is that as long as the flow of people on Comic Island does not increase, the Phoenix company that takes over here is equivalent to a black hole that absorbs wealth.

"How do we get the money?"

She said distressedly.

"If you don't have any money, you just need to let go of your hands and feet." Meng Huo's eyes flashed and said, "As long as you use your brain, games, movies, animations, comics, plus the advantages of the comic island itself... Think about the possibilities again, it shouldn't be difficult to make this money in a short time."

Alice was taken aback for a moment: "Meng Huo, you...could it be possible that you want to release other works?"

She thought, if Meng Huo launches other works in a short time, there is indeed a possibility of a large sum of money. But in this case, the subject matter of the works is limited. The comics are drawn quickly but the money-making cycle is long, and the fastest to get the money. It should be games and animated movies, but both of them need time to make...

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

Alice suddenly thought of this game. This game was rebuilt, but "clannad" was also on sale for two months, and during this time, the game production department began to remake "Pokemon". Meng Huo is very concerned about this rebuild. No matter where it is, he will always check it every few days. The rebuild of the game is carried out step by step according to his instructions. She does not know how far it is now.

Is "Pokemon" coming out soon?

"Speaking of which, it's not that difficult to rebuild..."

The more Alice thinks about it, the more it feels possible. The monster setting of "Pokemon" was completed a long time ago. Re-engineering does not mean that every detail has to be re-made. Many of the previous results can be directly used in the new version, even if it is released now, it doesn't seem to be a weird thing.

if it is like this……

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

While Alice was thinking about it, Meng Huo called the secretary and called Hexi and Zhou Qian. Alice was more convinced after hearing that, Meng Huo called Hexi, it really was a matter of "Pokemon"!

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

"Josie, we are going to take over some shops soon. There is not enough manpower. You will be responsible for this one... Zhou Qian, you will be responsible for the company's comic product research and development in the future and..."

Meng Huo talked to these two people for half an hour. What he said left Alice on one side dumbfounded. At first she was a little confused, but later she found that what Meng Huo was talking about was not just a new work. He wanted to go straight. A large-scale reader gathering was held on Manga Island to make money. 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 the comic island, incorporating many things that Alice and others have never heard of, and then there are many important activities-such as the live announcement of "Detective Conan" animation. The game "Pokemon" seems to have not been completed yet, but Meng Huo said he did not rule out the provision of a trial version at the event...

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

Meng Huo put forward a lot of ideas about this event~www.NovelMTL.com~, but he is very conservative about the new work. Except for the animation of "Detective Conan", 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 flow of people, and by the way make money to reduce financial pressure.

Such a plan completely subverted Alice's inherent views. She always felt that Manga Island had to be rich before it could develop slowly, but Meng Huo thought in the opposite direction. He intends to kill two birds with one stone, first using a party to attract the flow of people, so as to quickly beat the popularity and reputation of Manga Island.

"Can this succeed?".

Alice was a little worried, but thinking of Ning Hai's lively He Shi celebration, she felt that with Meng Huo's appeal, she might have a chance of success. And using He Xi's name to attract the first group of people over, if you can grasp the psychology of these people, the comic island will be able to move 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 the interaction with readers is very detailed. New works are the core element of this plan, but if the expected number of tourists is found to reach the target during the planning stage of the event, Meng Huo will not propose new works. If the number is not enough, he will use more new works activities to attract readers. (To be continued...) ()
