Chapter 41

"Make your own animation?"

Alice took Meng Huo to the company to ask about animation, but the chairman Xu Jing refused: "Mr. He Xi, what you said is very simple, but we don't have an animation department."

He was making tea. He poured out the tea by himself and then poured hot water into the teapot. After several procedures, he finished.

"Dongting Biluochun, teacher He Xi, try it..." Xu Jing put the fragrant tea in front of Meng Huo and said with a smile: "as for animation production, let's forget it. The company will not enter the animation industry in five years."

Phoenix company is a publishing enterprise, and is a single publishing enterprise with comics as the core. They don't have enough capital and technology to get involved in animation. It's very dangerous to get involved in an industry easily.

Meng Huo took a sip from the cup. He could see that the tea was the same as Alice's, but it tasted much better. Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy. After all, his daughter can't compare with her father. Meng Huo takes a look at Alice standing beside him, who frowns slightly, as if he knows what he is thinking.

"Well, chairman."

Meng Huo wants to seek the initiative to make animation, but he doesn't have to do it himself: "do you have an animation company that you are familiar with?"

"No

Xu Jing shook his head. He held the teacup and a glimmer flashed in his eyes: "but Mr. He Xi, if you really want to make animation, I have a proposal."

"What proposal?"

Meng Huo's eyes brightened.

"The development of the company is decided by the shareholders. As long as you persuade the shareholders, you can enter the animation industry, but..." Xu Jing said with a smile: "80% of the shares of the company belong to me. As long as I don't agree, you can't help it."

That's bullshit!

Meng Huo almost spewed out his heart. Xu Jing seemed to understand his idea and said calmly, "so I want to make a bet with you. As long as you win, the company will add an animation department. But if you lose, you have to promise to do something for me

"What's the matter?"

"I haven't thought about it yet." Xu Jing said with a smile, "but it won't embarrass you or force you, and it's not a matter of injuring nature."

Meng Huo was moved: "what is the content of the bet?"

"In half a year, your royalty will exceed 100 million Chinese dollars." Xu Jing stretched out a finger: "you can also use royalties to buy shares of the company, plus the previous 5%, a total of 25% of the shares, but it can not be calculated together with money, you can only choose one standard."

Either the royalty of 100 million Huaxia dollars or the 25% shares of Phoenix company, this requirement is very strict in anyone's eyes. Meng Huo's "Detective Conan" the first single book market has become saturated, the royalty is more than 20 million, six months can be up to three, in order to reach 100 million Chinese currency standard is beyond now, each single book average royalty is more than 33 million!

"Can I draw two comics?"

Meng Huo asked. Xu Jing began to think about it. In fact, his goal is to dig into Meng Huo's talents. If the authors can get 100 million Chinese dollars in royalties, the Phoenix company will make amazing money.

"Yes, but the second cartoon has to be serialized in weekly girls."

Xu Jing nodded and agreed. In fact, it's almost the same where he can make money, but Xu Jing hopes that the development of the company's departments can be more balanced. Meng Huo's painting style is very suitable for girls' comics, and it will certainly promote the sales of weekly girls.

However, this sentence makes Meng Huo a little nervous, girl comic? He didn't see any girl comics in his last life. Even if he never forgot them, he couldn't come up with them.

"... all right."

But after thinking for a long time, he agreed. Although there are no girl comics, there are many neutral juvenile comics. For example, "Detective Conan" is a typical juvenile cartoon, and there are a large number of female readers reading it?

As a result, the establishment of gambling, "pet elf" animation had to be delayed. Meng Huo has some regrets, but he is confident that he will win the gambling contract, and then he will be able to make this animation by himself. The copyright does not need to be handed over to others. You should know that any copyright of this animation has amazing profits.

After perfecting some details, Meng Huo is ready to leave. Xu Jing's face looks very satisfied, but just as he is about to send Meng Huo away, suddenly, Alice coughs heavily.

"What's the matter?"

Meng Huo looked around strangely, and Alice looked away awkwardly.

"She's fine." Xu Jing said with a bitter smile, "can I have another request for this gambling contract?"

Meng Huo understood that these two people were talking to each other just now!"Mr. He Xi, I hope you can follow Alice's instructions during the half year of gambling." Xu Jing did not stop, he said: "she prepared for you to study courses, but will not constrain your normal life."

Alice and Meng Huo have been together for some time. Meng Huo has a strong initiative in doing things, and Alice is always unable to get involved. Even her usual study, as long as Meng Huo didn't want to learn, Alice couldn't control it at all.

This made Alice feel like a failure. She hoped to guide Meng Huo better, so she asked Xu Jing to help her talk.

"I have absolutely no intention of forcing you." After Xu Jing finished, Alice added, "if you don't want to learn something, you can leave it alone. But you should listen to sister Qin and me more often and don't just focus on comics all day long."

Meng Huo was surprised. Did he give Alice such a feeling? He looked back and thought, as if he was a bit headstrong indeed, and the days ahead were still very long. It would be a bit too much to refuse Alice's kindness if it wasn't for forced study.

"No problem."

So Meng Huo agreed to this condition.

After returning home, Meng Huo released the news of "pet elf" on the official website. He did not give up the animation. Since CCTV thought it was worthless, He Xi would make the animation himself six months later.

The news is to appease the excited fans. Meng Huo is very confident in the bet.

Of course, this passage has been ridiculed by many media, saying that He Xi retreats and is really at the end of his talent. Meng Huo didn't want to quarrel with them, but he found that Xi Feng, the cartoonist, was so proud that he anonymously reminded him to keep his image as a cartoonist.

But I don't know if the cartoonists adapted from the novel have a problem or something. Instead of being frugal, Xifeng boasts Haikou that if pet elf succeeds in animation six months later and exceeds the ratings of cat and mouse couple, he will eat Shi live.

Many people don't have intelligence quotient as soon as they speak on the Internet. Of course, it's just the casual talk of Xifeng. Most people forget it when they look at it. As a kind man, Meng Huo just kept the screenshot of this passage.

He doesn't mind giving back to Longteng for taking care of him. But this return cycle is too long, which is a bit impolite. Didn't Longteng say that he was at his wit's end? The company's girl comic sales are also very good, which can be compared.

But before that, it's time for him to meet his fans
