"Painting?"

In a villa in Ninghai, Xu Jing's vacation was interrupted by his daughter.

"Do you mean the same as the previous paintings?"

He poured a cup of tea, sat down and asked.

"...... right"

Alice nodded.

“……”

The old man frowned slightly, this is indeed a difficult thing to do.

"Alice, when Ye Xiong asked you to inform Meng Shu and say that you should not draw that kind of cartoon again, do you know what the reason is?" He asked suddenly.

"Why?" Alice was a little strange: "Isn't it because you want to keep your strength?" ”

"No ......"

Xu Jing shook his head and said, "Let me be honest, at that time, the Huaxia Chinese Painting Association found our company, and they wanted to take Meng Shu away. It was not easy for us to refuse him, so we also let Meng gain his strength and prevent him from continuing to paint. ”

Alice's eyes widened.

"Why is this happening? You didn't say that! ”

"Because it can't be said." Xu Jing said with a smile: "Do you know the true value of Meng Dao's simple paintings?" Even in the Chinese Painting Association, there are no more than three people who can paint to that level......"

There are billions of people in China, and there are countless people who have painting talents, but Meng Xu's talents can be included in the top three.

"But Meng Huo has never studied Chinese painting at all."

Alice looked surprised.

"That's right, he didn't study." Xu Jing does not deny this: "That's why it's terrifying, painters are all seeking to show the most beautiful scenes in their hearts, and their learning, hard work, and skills are born for this...... But Meng Huo's child, he was born with this ability. ”

"Those of his figures. You can even draw with a brush to create the feeling of a brush. Never seen before. unimaginable. He said: "The existence of Meng Shu is a denial of many people, especially the existing painting techniques...... He didn't seem to need any skills, he could draw it as long as he could think of it. ”

Xu Jing took a sip of tea.

"The person in charge of the Chinese Painting Association said that Meng Shu should not exist...... he said, "He is a monster who can realize his fantasies...... It's funny to say that a group of old scholars in that association, they are afraid, so they will be rejected by us - otherwise, with Meng Xu's talent, he is now a treasure in the Chinese painting world. ”

"So, if Meng Shu can do all the comics to that point. That's not just a comic book thing. ”

When people in China discovered Meng Huo's painting strength, the Chinese painting world would also intervene. If they don't pull Meng into the organization, the authority of the painting world that has been formed over a long period of time will disappear.

Xu Jing looked at Alice, who looked surprised, and asked, "Do you know the new humans in science fiction movies?" ”

Alice nodded, the new human is a common term in science fiction movies, and even in reality, it can be occasionally heard, it is said that the Chinese government has begun to secretly implement the study of human evolution - that is, the study of new human beings in order to plan for the cosmic migration in hundreds of years.

The new human, which is the genetically optimized form of the human being. They are more adapted to the existence of the universe, compared to the current humans. Some experts have compared it to the huge gap between humans and orangutans.

Every new human being is a handsome man and a beautiful woman, and their intelligence and physical fitness are several times higher than that of the current humans. In today's society, there will be top talents.

At the age of ten or so, new humans will have the wisdom of today's adults, they will have to absorb more knowledge than modern times in their formative years, they will be successful in whatever they do, they will only take a few days to learn an art, and they will have talents that ordinary humans cannot match.

"Meng Shu is like a new human ......"

Alice was startled by Xu Jing's words, but after thinking about it carefully, the child did meet this standard. He learns everything very quickly, and he is very good at everything, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a new human.

"You're right, he's grown to this point."

Xu Jing put down the teacup and smiled bitterly: "I'll help him again,

That kid really makes the people around him hard, and I've been working hard for the channel these days. ”

"I'd like to get in touch with Huami......"

Xu Jing stood up.

"Huamei, didn't you contact it before?"

Alice was a little happy with Xu Jing's actions, but she began to worry that Huamei, as the second largest bookstore chain in China, Phoenix Company had already persuaded her, but the other party did not agree.

"Recently, there have been rumors that Huamei has been acquired...... The opportunity is rare, I took the initiative to greet them, although they are not large, but after all, there is a foundation. ”

Xu Jing smiled, Alice frowned slightly, she had a question for a long time.

"Dad, there is one thing I don't understand, how did Zhongxia Company get to this scale now, aren't they a monopoly?"

"Zhongxia didn't blatantly target others, just like our comics, they answered that they couldn't get a review, and we have no evidence to say that they have a monopoly ...... And this is a legacy of history. ”

Xu Jing said while ordering someone to clean up the documents: "In the past, when the novel industry was just developing, there were scattered bookstores everywhere, and it was a mess. The country needs a strong capital joint bookstore to appear, which can open up the market and penetrate the bookstore deep into the mountainous areas of the interior. The current prosperity of the novel industry can be said to have nothing to do with the deepening and development of Zhongxia Bookstore. ”

When Zhongxia Company was first established, the capitalists behind it were all losing money to open up the market for the novel industry, and today's status was earned with hard work.

"But they've been comfortable for years......"

Xu Jing paused and continued: "Now and unlike before, offline channels no longer need to be developed, and the continued existence of Zhongxia is not conducive to multi-faceted development...... In fact, their business is also shrinking, the most typical example is that bookstores in big cities are booming, and Zhongxia bookstores have no authority. ”

"Over time, their advantage in lower-middle-tier cities will gradually diminish, and they will be eaten up by other small or local bookstores......

In the past, Zhongxia Bookstore dominated the market in China, but now the proportion of sales in big cities is declining year by year, and it can only maintain its hegemony in small and medium-sized cities and remote places. However, even so, it is still the leader with the channel of the entire continent, and it will be difficult to change it in the next few years.

"I'll go first." Xu Jing took the document bag from the servant, and Alice followed to pack the package: "I'll go too." ”

She couldn't get out of the house when a blonde woman stopped her: "Alice, have you forgotten something?" Don't use work as an excuse, what are you going to do today. ”

Alice's cold sweat fell.

"Then don't go."

Xu Jing glanced at her, and then left alone.

Alice looked at his back and sighed helplessly, and in the evening, when she found Xu Jing again.

"Huamei Bookstore actually agreed." Xu Jing said a good news, but in addition to excitement on his face, there were doubts: "There is nothing wrong with the procedures, but why do I think they are more positive than me?" (To be continued......)
