Over the next two days, Alice and Meng bought the furniture they needed, including a table and brushes, and set aside a room to use as a studio.

Meng Huo planned to buy a computer, but was stopped by Li Qin: "You can't spend all the money, you have to keep the tuition and the cost of hiring a tutor!" ”

Meng Huo currently only collects one month's manuscript fee, although the manuscript fee for the next month will arrive soon, but the rent money will be deducted from it, and Li Qin is not down-to-earth in his heart.

The tuition fee of Ninghai No. 1 Middle School is 7,000 per year, but Meng Huo's situation is special, he has to focus on comics, and he can only ask a tutor to tutor him for guidance. Although Meng Shu felt that it was unnecessary, Li Qin's attitude was very tough.

"Good ......"

Meng Shu listened to his mother very much, but Alice next to him was surprised.

"Tutors? No need to please, I'm Meng Huo's tutor! She touched her head, her face flushed slightly: "Look at my memory, I seem to have forgotten to say it, and tutoring Meng Huo to study is also part of my job." ”

She is a top student who graduated from Yenching University, and she is more than a tutor. Only then did Meng Shu understand Alice's role, and he had long wondered why there would be an exclusive editor for Lu. Cartoonists are not babies and do not need 1:1 editing assistance, and this arrangement of Phoenix is very unreasonable.

But with the addition of tutoring, it is different, Meng Huo is in a special situation, he needs to balance his studies and comics at the same time, and Alice can allocate his time reasonably.

However, Alice's previous experience as an agent is very useful.

"Sister, are you a tutor?" Li Qin was both surprised and delighted, she believed in Alice's ability, but it was not too troublesome for her: "In this way, we will add some money to you, you see how much ...... you need"

"No, no!" Alice hurriedly refused: "This is my job, and the company has paid me well." ”

In fact, she was very envious of the company's care for Meng Shu, she was also outstanding when she was young, but no one except her parents spent money for her. In the final analysis, it is a matter of strength, Meng Shu creates benefits for Phoenix Company, and naturally enjoys preferential treatment.

The next day, Meng Shu, who had finished handling chores, went to the Phoenix Mansion accompanied by Alice.

It was still time to go to work, and he caused a sensation as soon as he entered the editorial office.

"What a pity for the teacher, isn't this a pity for the teacher!"

"Go pour water!"

"What a pity, teacher, I am Zhou Shang, the editor of the third group, this is a business card, if you need anything in the future, you can call me for help......"

"What a pity, teacher, when do you have time to meet other cartoonists, they all want to meet you!"

The editors were enthusiastic, pouring tea and handing out business cards, Alice felt uncomfortable, and stood beside Meng Shu lightly, stretching out her hands to stop the enthusiasm of these editors.

"Can you please stop poaching in front of me, I'm the editor he is in charge of!"

Alice was tall, she was so angry that the editors didn't move.

In fact, many editors have different thoughts about this new editor. The editors of the weekly teenagers saw the popularity of "Detective Conan" and launched a fierce competition, and as a result, no one became the responsible editor of Meng Shu - but was snatched away by a woman.

But the result is fair, Alice is beautiful and attractive, and it is better to be snatched away by her than other colleagues. And there is an extra girl in the office, and many editors feel comfortable.

"Alright, Alice, don't be angry, let's disperse."

One editor came out, and the other editors nodded and dispersed.

Alice took Meng Shu to find Ye Xiong, and the editor-in-chief witnessed what had just happened, and smiled happily: "It seems that you guys are getting along well." ”

The most important thing for the responsible editor and the cartoonist is to get along, Ye Xiong was relieved on this point, he began to talk about the topic, and the main reason for calling Meng Shu was that "Detective Conan" was going to release a single comic book.

A single comic book refers to a book with a comic book based on a single comic book after it has been serialized and the content is reprinted from the serialized publication.

"I also looked at the poster."

Meng Huo saw the poster promotion on the subway and thought it was strange: "Is the number of words in "Detective Conan" enough? ”

For a long time, "Detective Conan" has been serialized in magazines at the speed of a week, and Meng Shu doesn't know how many words Lu Dao needs to publish a book alone.

"That's enough."

Ye Xiong nodded without hesitation: "Now that the comics are on fire, the company has decided to strike while the iron is hot, and launch a single book of the first eight chapters when the ninth chapter is serialized, with an estimated retail price of 20." ”

The single line of ordinary comics in China is ten to fourteen words, and there are fewer eight words, but the price is also cheap.

Meng Shu and Ye Xiong discussed it, and he didn't find anything wrong, so he agreed. The release time of the manga single book is very close, just after the start of school, in early September.

In addition to this incident, Ye Xiong also asked Meng Huo about his assistant. Many professional cartoonists will rely on assistants to help, although Meng Huo is efficient, Ye Xiong considered that he still had to juggle his studies, so he suggested that he hire two comic assistants to help.

However, hiring an assistant requires the contribution of a cartoonist, and Meng Xu refused without hesitation. He knows his state, and it is not difficult for him to study at all, and he is comfortable with a weekly update.

"I'll talk about it when I serialize two comics, and then I'll ask for an assistant."

Meng Huo said that even if he had an idea in his head, the two comics required great physical strength, and he had to ask his assistant for help at that time.

However, this sentence shocked both Alice and Ye Xiong.

"Two comics? Meng Huo, you have this plan! Ye Xiong was especially nervous: "Don't be reckless, just draw a comic." ”

He was very worried that Meng would get carried away, it would be difficult for ordinary people to serialize two comics at the same time, and even if they supported it, it would lead to a decline in the quality of the comics, and Ye Xiong didn't want to see this situation.

Meng Shu understood his worries, and he didn't say anything.

"I know, it's not just an example!"

Ye Xiong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, that's all I came to you today, and you can paint with peace of mind in the future." He said to Meng Xu, and then looked at Alice: "Alice, in the future, all these tasks will be handed over to you to be responsible, and if you have any problems, you will discuss with me." ”

These jobs were originally Alice's, but Ye Xiong thought that she had only been with Meng Shu for two days, and he was not at ease before he stepped in.

"I know it."

Alice didn't mind, she had a lot of things she wasn't familiar with when she first joined the company, and she also needed to learn from Ye Xiong.

After the discussion, Alice had to stay in the editorial office to work on the documents, and Meng Shu went home alone, thinking that he didn't have to pay for tutoring, so he stopped by and bought a computer, and the broadband was also done.

Things seem to be going well, but a shadow is looming.
