Chapter 61: An Unexpected Visitor

Meng Huo was expecting "The Legend of Wukong" to find an influential company to publish, but he didn't expect that the first person to find himself would be Li Ming, the editor-in-chief of Longteng Novels.

"How did he know that my home was here?"

Hearing Alice say that the other party had arrived downstairs, Meng Shu was a little strange: "You leaked my address?" ”

"No, we can't do that." Alice shook her head quickly, and she explained, "Your address must have been investigated by themselves. ”

In fact, it is more convenient for peers to find people than the media, and the comic circle says that it is not a big deal, as long as Longteng Company puts a lot of effort into it, it is not strange to learn the true identity of Meng Xu. However, Li Ming did not visit directly, but sent a message through Alice, which was quite polite.

"Tell him I'm gone."

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

"Okay."

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

"It's a pity that the teacher is inconvenient, then I'll come back next time."

He said this, and sure enough, it didn't take two days to reappear, this time Li Ming did not pass Alice, but 'met' Li Qin, who came back from grocery shopping early in the morning, and sent a lot of gifts.

"Nope." Meng Shu refused again, he didn't have a good impression of Long Teng, and of course he couldn't see it.

But two days later, Li Ming came again, and he asked Teacher Huameng to send a letter, in which he sincerely apologized, hoping to meet Meng once.

When Meng Shu read the letter, it turned out to be handwritten, and the words were very sincere.

"Let him come up." This time he didn't refuse, he came and went endlessly, and if he didn't meet, Li Ming wouldn't give up.

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

This man is reasonable, funny, and praised Meng Huo for three points as soon as he entered the door, and it didn't take long for Meng Huo to have no impact, but Li Qin was said to be excited.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it, my little win has been praised by you......" Li Qin still likes someone to praise her son in her heart, and she is happy to serve tea and snacks: "You talk slowly, I won't bother." ”

After she left, Li Ming stopped complimenting.

"What a pity, teacher, can you hand over "The Legend of Wukong" to us for publication?" His face became straight, and after only a brief observation, Li Ming noticed that Meng was showing maturity. He flattered him for so long that even Li Qin couldn't stand it, but Meng Xu's face didn't change.

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

Li Ming wants to win over Meng Huo more and more: "We will provide the greatest publicity for "The Legend of Wukong", how about the 15% royalty, which is the highest in the industry." ”

15% royalty, which made Meng Shu slightly moved, this Longteng company can really spend money, and this amount of royalties is difficult for even first-class novelists to enjoy.

After showing his sincerity, Li Ming waited for Meng to answer. Maybe there was some tossing in the past, but Li Ming felt that Meng Shu was not a narrow-minded person and would not hate Long Teng.

“……”

Meng Shu is also thinking quickly, but he thinks about it, and letting Long Teng publish "The Legend of Wukong" has more advantages than disadvantages, and it is the leader of Chinese novel publishing.

"We can talk." He nodded: "Editor-in-Chief Li has no time, I have a lot to talk about." ”

Meng Shu planned to take this opportunity to sort out his relationship with Long Teng.

Li Mingzheng wanted to pull Meng Huo into the fiction industry, and this teenager was too condescending to draw comics, so he readily agreed: "I have plenty of time." ”

The two talked for a few hours, and Meng Shu handed over the publication of "The Legend of Wukong" to the Longteng Company, and the side requirement was to give "The Legend of Wukong" and him the greatest publicity, and then not to hinder the development of his comics by any informal means.

Any fair and honest competition, Meng Huo will welcome.

Li Ming got the result he wanted, and left the building with excitement on his face.

"How's it going, Editor-in-Chief Li?"

Downstairs he was greeted by comic editor-in-chief Wang Zhe, Wang Zhe and others were so anxious that they couldn't wait to know the results.

"If we succeed, why don't we be given priority to the teacher's future novels." Li Ming replied with a smile, Wang Zhe's face turned pale all of a sudden, and then turned rosy again: "So, why don't you stop drawing comics?" ”

"This ......"

Li Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head: "He still mainly focuses on comics, and novels are rarely written." ”

"We both underestimated Mr. Hexi, he is very broad-minded." Li Ming looked at Wang Zhe and reminded: "It's a pity that the teacher has never harbored ill will towards you, let others pay attention in the future, don't trouble him, he will not object to your normal competition." ”

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

"It means that you don't need to use unscrupulous means, you can rest assured and boldly compete with the teacher."

"He's big-sighted." Li Ming sighed: "It's a pity that the teacher is not simple, 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 to write a novel, but was persuaded by Meng Huo.

Meng said that he does not write novels because the novel market is already prosperous enough, and there is not much difference between him and him. He drew comics because he believed that comics could become as brilliant as novels, and he wanted to witness and lead the process.

This idea subverted all the perceptions of Li Ming, Meng Huo is a young man with dreams. He said about animation, music, games, various peripheral industries, etc., Li Ming never thought that he could create so many things with comics as the core, and comics definitely have the potential to go side by side with novels.

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

And Phoenix doesn't want to get involved in novels, it can't pose a threat to Longteng, and it would be better if it could open up the comic market.

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

Of course, these are the futures depicted by Meng Huo, and it is still unknown whether they can be realized.

Li Ming was very satisfied with "The Legend of Wukong" when he got it, and if the comic book industry could not move forward with Meng Huo's expectations, he believed that Meng Huo would change his mind sooner or later.

"Let's go, let's go back."

Li Ming glanced at Wang Zhe, if Wang Zhe was smart enough, he would know what to do in the future.

A huge market has been opened, which is a good thing for everyone in it, Longteng dominates the fiction world, but other companies are also enjoying their lives.

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

It's just that......

Li Ming thought that Meng Huo was just a cartoonist, and he wanted to open up the market, and this identity was definitely not enough.
