Rebirth of the God of Comics

Chapter 364: Lando House

After two or three days of adjustment, Chen Ze's time difference was almost adjusted. So far, he has basically adapted to the US schedule.

The publishing house that invited Chen Ze and Lin Lan over to the United States seemed to know the situation. Early this morning, they sent someone to the door to bring Chen Ze and Lin Lan to their publishing house's headquarters in New York.

This time, the publishing house that Chen Ze and the others are cooperating with is Lando Bookstore, one of the three largest publishing houses in the United States. This publishing group has eight publishing houses, focusing on popular fiction, social sciences, business non-fiction, and high-end Literary works, etc., are not only one of the largest publishing houses in the United States, but also a prestigious publishing group in the whole world.

In recent years, due to the great development of the local comics industry in the United States, Lando House has expanded his business scope to include comic booklets. He not only publishes and distributes comics in the United States, but also pays attention to the introduction of overseas comic copyrights.

However, in the past, their cartoons were mainly based on American cartoonists and Western European cartoons. In Asia, they also introduced cartoons like Chinese Li Ming. Unfortunately, the response in the United States and the entire West has been average.

For this reason, Lando Bookstore for a time gave up the introduction of the copyright of Huaxia and the entire Eastern world. They believed that the gap between Huaxia and the United States in terms of thinking mode and behavior is too large. The excellent comics of Huaxia are not treated by Americans. see.

In this situation, until recent years, comics in the United States and the West as a whole appear to be quite sluggish. New excellent comics and cartoonists have broken down, and the entire Western world comics industry is eating its past.

In this situation, they turned their eyes to the East again, hoping to find comics and cartoonists in the East who could break this predicament. At this time, they noticed Chen Ze.

Chen Ze has shown his talent in comic creation over the years. Let them think that maybe Chen Ze will be a cartoonist who can become popular in the West. Therefore, after evaluating all of Chen Ze's cartoons and the value of his entire person, they took the initiative to contact Lin Lan's new animation magazine, hoping to cooperate.

then. This is why Chen Ze and Lin Lan made a trip to the United States.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Smith from our group is already waiting for you and Miss Lin Lan in his office. He asked me to take you and Lin Lan there as soon as possible."

Inside a black Mercedes-Benz car sprinting on New York Avenue, a blond, blue-eyed, thirty-year-old man said to Chen Ze and Lin Lan next to him.

However, unlike his typical Westerner, he now speaks pure Chinese. Yes it is. Quite pure, if they cover the eyes of Chen Ze and Lin Lan, they might not have imagined that the person speaking would be a pure American.

This person's name is George Johnson, and he is the person in charge of hosting Chen Ze and Lin Lan at Lando's Bookstore this time. Because he had studied abroad in China for ten years, and he spoke Chinese quite well, so he was sent.

"Really. We also want to see Mr. Smith soon and want to talk to him about this cooperation." Chen Ze nodded after hearing George's words.

This Mr. Smith is the person in charge of the comics copyright publishing business in Lando Bookstore. He came to meet Chen Ze in person. It can be seen that Lando Bookstore attaches great importance to Chen Ze.

After all, although Chen Ze is not well-known in the United States, he is currently the most popular cartoonist in China and the entire Eastern world.

Chen Ze also knows Smith's position in Lando's Bookstore. Knowing that his manga wants to open the door to the Western world, then his character can be said to be quite the key.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, we will be able to reach the Lando Bookstore Headquarters in about ten minutes." George looked at Chen Ze, and he seemed to have something to say, but he swallowed after the words came to his lips several times. Went back.

"What's wrong, Mr. George, you can tell me if you have any questions." Chen Ze smiled.

He discovered this behavior of George. In his impression, the United States and the entire Westerners would say whatever they wanted. And George in front of him showed this kind of expression peculiar to the Oriental, plus his proficiency in Chinese.

It really made Chen Ze feel that this guy is a Chinese with a Western appearance, or how could he be like this.

"Since Mr. Chen asked, then I will say. Actually I have a small request." George looked at Chen Ze and said, "I especially like your comics "Naruto" and "Slam Dunk". Can’t sign me."

With that, George actually took out two books from the other side of the car. One is a booklet of "Slam Dunk" and the other is a booklet of "Naruto".

And these two books are actually in Chinese.

After listening to George's words, Chen Zexian was a little surprised. He couldn't think that the person in the Rando Bookstore in front of him would be a fan of his own, and he was a little stunned here for a while.

Lin Lan was actually a little dazed, but she who had studied in the United States knew that with the continuous upsurge of China's economy, a group of Westerners who liked Chinese and Eastern culture also appeared in the United States and the entire Western world.

This George, who speaks Chinese and likes to read Chen Ze's cartoons, is obviously one of them.

Seeing that Chen Ze was still there, Lin Lan hurriedly poked at him, which made Chen Ze react.

Chen Ze smiled embarrassedly at George, and then said: "No problem, I am also very happy to be liked by Mr. George."

After speaking, Chen Ze took the pen and two books handed over by George and signed his name. At the first time he debuted, when he was engaged in the "Slam Dunk" signing event, Chen Ze had practiced his autograph very nervously before, so as not to let his fans feel that his handwriting was too bad.

But now it's different. So far, Chen Ze has done several signing meetings, both large and small, and he has already practiced his signature fast and well.

Two or three strokes, Chen Ze's name appeared in two of George's comic books.

George obviously didn't want to please Chen Ze, but really liked Chen Ze's cartoons. After Chen Ze signed him, he looked at the signature on the book with a happy expression on his face.

"Mr. Chen, I absolutely believe that your cartoons must be popular in the United States." George looked at Chen Ze and said firmly.

More than ten minutes later, the Mercedes Benz carrying Chen Ze and Lin Lan finally reached the destination-Landu Bookstore Headquarters Building!

This Lando Bookstore is worthy of being one of the most prestigious publishing houses in the West, and the entire building is quite magnificent. Chen Ze sat in the car and looked through the window. This mansion was built in the center of New York City, which is very rich in land, with dozens of stories high.

The exterior is inlaid with floor-to-ceiling glass, which looks very magnificent under the sunlight.

"Mr. Chen, Miss Lin, let me take you up. Mr. Smith is waiting for you two on the sixty-seventh floor." George got out of the car first, and while speaking, he took Chen Ze and Lin Lan into the building. , Walked towards the elevator entrance.

After entering the door, Chen Ze looked at the decoration of the lower building. There are many books and paintings on the walls. Compared with the appearance, there is a bit more cultural atmosphere, showing the connotation of its cultural publishing house.

"It's a business that has been established for almost a hundred years. It is a perfect combination of style and cultural heritage." Looking at the decoration inside, Chen Ze couldn't help whispering to Lin Lan beside him.

"The companies in the United States and the West have this tradition. Our country's market economy started relatively late. I believe that in another 50 years, companies with deep cultural background will surely emerge." Lin Lan is obviously a comparison. Learn about American companies.

"That is, I also believe that by then, our magazine will definitely become a magazine that does not lose to the Lando Group~www.NovelMTL.com~ Chen Ze smiled.

After getting on the elevator, soon he reached the 67th floor. George took Chen Ze and Lin Lan out of the elevator and brought them to a door. He knocked on the door, and there was a sound of pure English from inside.

After the sound of English was over, George also started to speak, and he also spoke English.

Although Chen Ze didn't understand the conversation between the two, he could guess it. The person who spoke inside should be Mr. Smith.

With a creak, the door was opened. Chen Ze quickly looked inside, he wanted to see what Mr. Smith looked like.

As a result, Chen Ze was stunned, because it was a woman in her twenties who opened the door. This woman has the same blond hair and blue eyes, and is quite beautiful.

"This, this is Mr. Smith? No way!" Chen Ze said in his heart. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote recommended votes, monthly tickets, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please go to read.)
