Chapter 61 : Unexpected visitor

Meng Huo expects “The Story of Wukong” to find an influential company to publish, but he didn’t expect that the first person to find himself was Li Ming, the editor-in-chief of Longteng’s novels.

“How does he know that my home is here?”

Hearing Alice said that the other party had arrived downstairs, Meng Huo was a little strange: “You have leaked my address?”

“No, we can’t do this kind of thing.” Alice shook her head quickly, and she explained: “Your address must have been investigated by themselves.”

In fact, it is more convenient to find people in the same industry than the media. The comics circle said that it is not too big. As long as Longteng Company has worked hard, it is not surprising to know the true identity of Meng Huo. However, Li Ming didn’t visit the house directly, but sent the letter through Alice, which was considered polite.

“Tell him I am missing.”

It’s a pity that Meng Huo doesn’t like others to investigate him.

“it is good.”

Alice nodded, and quickly rejected Li Ming. Strangely, the editor-in-chief of the novel simply left.

“Teacher He Xi is inconvenient, then I will come again next time.”

He said this, and he appeared again within two days. This time Li Ming didn’t pass Alice, but Li Qin, who came back from buying vegetables from ‘encountered’ early in the morning, gave a lot of gifts.

“No.” Meng Huo refused again. He didn’t like Long Teng, so it would be good if he could not see.

But within two days, Li Ming came again. He asked Teacher Huameng to send a letter in which he expressed his apologies and hoped to see Meng Huo once.

Meng Huo read this letter, it turned out to be handwritten, and the words are very sincere.

“Let him come up.” He didn’t refuse this time. He came and went endlessly. If he didn’t meet, Li Ming would not give up.

Li Ming is a handsome man, his actual age is unknown, but he feels very young.

This man is well-founded and has a witty conversation. He praised Meng Huo by three points as soon as he entered the door. Before long, Meng Huo had little influence, but Li Qin was said to be happy.

“Okay, okay, don’t talk about it, you have praised my family’s small gains…” Li Qin still likes someone to praise her son, and he is happy to have tea and snacks: “You talk slowly, I Don’t bother.”

After she left, Li Ming stopped complimenting her.

“Teacher He Xi, can you hand over “The Story of Wukong” to us for publication?” His face became straight, only a brief observation, and Li Ming found that Meng Huo was mature. He flattered for so long that even Li Qin couldn’t stand it, but Meng Huo’s expression remained unchanged.

At the age of sixteen, he had this calmness and calmness, which was somewhat beyond Li Ming’s expectations.

Li Ming wants to win Meng Huo more and more: “We will provide the greatest publicity for “Wukong Biography”. How about 15% royalties, the highest in the industry.”

15% of royalties, which made Meng Huo slightly moved. This Longteng company can really spend money. This amount of royalties is difficult even for first-class novelists.

After showing his sincerity, Li Ming waited for Meng Huo’s answer. Maybe it was a bit toss in the past, but Li Ming felt that Meng Huo was not a narrow-minded person and would not hate Longteng.

“……”

Meng Huo is also thinking fast, but he has thought about it and made Long Teng publish “The Story of Wukong”, which has more advantages than disadvantages. It is the leader in the publishing of Huaxia novels.

“We can talk.” He nodded, “Is there any time for Editor Li? I have a lot to talk about.”

Meng Huo intends to take this opportunity to sort out his relationship with Long Teng.

Li Mingzheng wants to pull Meng Huo into the novel industry. This boy is too talented to draw comics, so he readily agrees: “I have plenty of time.”

The two talked for several hours. Meng Huo handed over the publication of “The Legend of Wukong” to Longteng Company, and the incidental request was to promote the “Legend of Wukong” and him the most, and then not to interfere with his comics by any informal means. development of.

Meng Huo welcomes all open competition.

Li Ming got the desired result and left the building with excitement on his face.

“How are things going, Editor Li?”

The man who greeted him downstairs was the comic editor Wang Zhe. Wang Zhe and others were very anxious and couldn’t wait to know the result.

“If it succeeds, teacher He Xi will also give priority to us in future novels.” Li Ming replied with a smile. Wang Zhe’s face turned pale and then ruddy again: “So, why does he stop drawing comics? ”

“This one……”

Li Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head: “He still focuses on comics, and he rarely writes novels.”

“We both underestimated Teacher He Xi. He has a very broad mind.” Li Ming looked at Wang Zhe and reminded: “Teacher He Xi has never been malicious to you. In the future, let others pay attention and don’t cause him trouble. , He is not opposed to your normal competition.”

Wang Zhe was confused: “What do you mean?”

“It means that you don’t have to use shameful means to be able to compete boldly with Teacher He Xi.”

“His vision is great.” Li Ming said with emotion: “Teacher He Xi is not easy. He has expectations for the future of comics, and competition is also good for him.”

After talking for several hours, Li Ming did not persuade Meng Huo to write a novel, but was persuaded by Meng Huo.

Meng Huo said that he didn’t write novels because the novel market was already prosperous enough, and there was not much difference between him and him. He draws comics because he believes that comics can become as brilliant as novels, and he wants to witness and lead this process This idea subverts all the views of Li Ming, and Meng Huo is a young man with dreams. He was talking about animation, music, games, various peripheral industries, etc. Li Ming never thought that so many things could be created with comics as the core. Comics definitely have the potential to go side by side with novels.

Longteng Company focuses on novels, and its comics department exists for novels, and it can never turn the cart before the horse. So relying on them, the development of comics will be very slow.

Phoenix does not want to get involved in novels, and it cannot pose a threat to Longteng. It would be better if it can open up the comics market.

The prosperity of comics is also a good thing for Longteng. Novels and comics are highly interdependent. With a larger market and more readers, the two companies are fully able to cooperate and make money together.

Of course, these are the future described by Meng Huo. Whether it can be realized or not is still unknown.

Li Ming is very satisfied with the “Wukong Biography”. If the comics industry cannot move forward with Meng Huo’s expectations, he believes that Meng Huo will change his mind sooner or later.

“Let’s go, let’s go back.”

Li Ming glanced at Wang Zhe. If Wang Zhe is smart enough, he will know what to do in the future.

A huge market has been opened up, which is good for everyone in it. Longteng Company dominates the novel industry, but other companies also live a good life.

Culture is not afraid of competition, it is afraid that there is no market.

just…

Li Ming thought that Meng Huo was just a cartoonist. He wanted to open up the market. This status was definitely not enough.
