On Saturday, Shen Jie wanted to pull Meng Hou out, but Meng Huo was unwilling, but it was a pity that he ......

"You don't want to stay at home all day long!"

He was driven out by Li Qin with a broom, Meng Shu was a little helpless, when he was busy with work before, Li Qin said that he worked too hard, but now he is not busy, but she thinks she is too homely.

"Here, hat." Shen Jie stood beside Meng Shu and stretched out his hand to hand him a hat: "Let's go on a date!" ”

She said that this time she went out to play with Meng Huo as a date, which was the reason why Meng Huo was reluctant. However, the rush was driven out, so Meng Shu had to sigh and take the hat, and then walked outside the community.

"Auntie, thank you!"

Behind him, Shen Jie bent down to thank Li Qin for peeking out through the crack in the door, and then ran towards Meng Huo excitedly.

"How about we go to the playground today?"

Shen Jie ran to Meng Shu's side, looking at his face slightly glowing in the rising sun, his heartbeat accelerated a little.

"Today is the day of the release of "Weekly Boutique", so I'm going to buy this magazine first." Meng Shu typed with his mobile phone in his hand and replied absent-mindedly. He didn't object, but what he said made Shen Jie cry and laugh: "You really won't forget the comics all the time." ”

However, she likes men with goals, and compared to other boys of the same age, Meng Shu is full of charm. Although he was a little unkind to the relationship, after getting used to it, Shen Jie found that this was also a cute point, and Meng Huo's occasional indifference made her feel a little addicted.

In the eyes of the lover, Shen Jie has sunk, and she herself understands, but this feeling of sinking. She couldn't and didn't want to resist.

"That's right. What are you doing with your phone? ”

Shen Jie asked curiously.

"I texted two of your roommates out."

Meng put down his phone. The corners of the mouth are slightly upturned. At this moment, Shen Jie didn't know whether Lu Dao should hate him or like him.

"You haven't been with them on vacation lately, isn't that too much?" On the way, Meng Shu continued to laugh and said: "I remember that you used to be tired of being together all day, and now that you have abandoned them, aren't you worried about hurting their feelings?" ”

Alice said that it is more difficult for women to get friendship with each other than between men, and Shen Jie has two roommates who share common values, and Meng Huo doesn't want to tear them apart because of himself.

"What are you worried about?" But Shen Jie was dissatisfied. She pouted: "I'm with them five days a week, and I've only been with you for less than two days, why aren't you worried about the relationship between the two of us getting worse?" ”

“……”

Meng Shu was silent, he couldn't say that he hoped that the relationship between the two would be worse, right?

Leaving the Jiayuan community, the nearest bookstore is less than 500 meters, and there are already many people buying books in the bookstore. The most lively place is really the comic area, and Meng Shu and the two of them queued for more than ten minutes and bought the "Weekly Boutique".

"Do you want to see it now?"

After walking out of the bookstore, Shen Jie asked.

"No, your roommates are out. Now ask me where to meet. Meng Shu took out his mobile phone and saw the text message, and then dialed out again: "Uncle Lin." I'm going out to play today...... Well, I'll be waiting for you at the gate of the complex. ”

Hanging up the phone, Shen Jie tilted her head: "Driver? ”

"Hmm."

"Eh, the bus is for private use, I want to squeeze the bus with you!"

Meng Xu smiled, he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask Shen Jie why he wanted to squeeze the bus, because it would definitely not be a good answer.

And he was not a private car, nor was he a government department, that car was originally his private car. The driver has been idle in the past few months, but he can receive the high salary given by the Phoenix company, which is much more comfortable than drawing comics.

The only inconvenient part is that he needs to be on call, but Meng Huo rarely shouts, and he is very lucky to be his driver.

Five minutes later, the car arrived, Meng Shu went to pick up the two girls first, and then the group set off for the playground. There were more people, and Meng Shu felt that the atmosphere had also changed, it was originally a date for two people, but now it seems to have become a gathering of young people, with a youthful atmosphere.

He loves the breath.

The playground on Saturday was very lively, and it was crowded everywhere, but the four of them had a great time. After they were tired of playing, they sat down at a drink stand to rest, and Meng Shu took out the "Weekly Boutique Classic" and prepared to read it.

"Meng was ......"

Before he could tear the package, a timid voice rang out.

Meng Shu raised his head, Shen Jie's roommate Li Yu avoided his eyes a little shyly, although he had known his identity for a long time, but these two roommates still couldn't completely let go of their hands and feet, and sometimes they would be nervous to call Meng Huo's name.

"What's the matter?"

Meng Shu's smile softened, and Shen Jie, who saw this scene, took a sip of milk tea, scolding cunning in her heart, Meng Shu would never talk to her so gently.

"Yes, that...... It says you're going to use two comics to deal with Duke Anthony's Sherlock. Li Yu pointed to "Weekly Boutique" and asked curiously: "How is the competition?" Why does it have to do with magazines? ”

Shen Jie and Han Xuan's ears also pricked up suddenly, yes, they still don't know the specific content of this competition.

"This is more complicated to say, we are comparing sales, but not individual sales." Meng Shu pondered for a moment, organized the language, and slowly explained: "First of all, time, this competition starts with the serialization of the sequel to Sherlock, and ends two weeks after the release of the comic book, hmm...... That is to say, the single book of "Son of the Detective" was released for two weeks, and the competition ended.

"And then the specific content is the comparison of sales ......"

Anthony and Meng's sales competition is not only a single book competition, but an all-round competition, including the sales of the magazines where the two are located. This condition was formulated by Zhongxia Company, and Meng Huo did not know the specific reference standard when it was formulated.

But he can roughly understand Zhongxia's concerns, because if it is only a single book, Meng Huo will have a great advantage. The sales of single books have always been far better than comic magazines, and Meng Huo is the first cartoonist in China to break through 10 million in a single book, and Zhongxia has no confidence to fight against him.

In terms of magazines, Zhongxia has a very big advantage. Joining the standard of magazines, Zhongxia can expand the sales gap between the two in the early stage, and even if the single book loses to Meng Shu's two comics, the winner is still Zhongxia.

The current situation is also developing from this, although "Weekly Boy" is pressing step by step, but "Weekly Boutique" will win a part of the sales every week, and the gap so far has added up to nearly 10 million copies.

This figure, except for "Five Centimeters per Second", the sales of Meng Huo's other works have not yet been reached. That is to say, Zhongxia Company has used the magazine to make up for the disadvantage of the most single book two-to-one, and if Meng Shu does not make changes in time, the gap will become bigger and bigger.

"That's not fair!" After Meng Shu finished speaking carefully, Han Xuan said angrily: "There is still such a long time for the magazine competition, so you are not sure to lose?" ”

"No, not necessarily ......"

Meng Shu shook his head, in fact he was indeed at a disadvantage, the new magazine was monthly, but he had a lot of confidence in One Piece. There is a decisive difference between this manga and his previous works, and this difference makes him look forward to it.

One Piece will definitely be his most popular title, and it will be able to release twice before Detective Son releases a single book, and those two will make up for the magazine's two-month sales gap.

"What nonsense are you talking about, Meng Shu won't lose." Shen Jie patted Han Xuan's head: "Don't crow's mouth, he still has a new work that hasn't come out!" ”

She had watched One Piece and was confident in it.

"But if you lose, Meng Shu, you have to go to the UK......"

Li Yu asked.

"Well, there's nothing wrong with going to England once." Meng Shu nodded, and his words startled Shen Jie: "You don't want to go to the UK, do you?" ”

"I've never been abroad, and I'd love to see what Europe has to offer." Meng Huo frowned slightly: "But...... I think travel is more appropriate, and I don't want to lose this competition. ”

Shen Jie's face lit up: "Then Meng Shu, we will ...... together in the future"

"What a pity brother, let's go to England together in the future!" An immature voice preemptively said Shen Jie's words, Meng Xu's body suddenly stiffened, and he looked down and looked at a girl pulling the corner of his clothes.

"I accompanied my mom to the playground!"

The little princess of the dessert shop, Ling Shuang, appeared again. (To be continued......)
