Chapter 19 :discuss

In the next two days, Alice and Meng Huo bought the missing furniture together, including tools needed by cartoonists such as desks and brushes, and then set aside a room for use as a studio.

Meng Huo intends to buy a computer, but Li Qin reaches out and stops him: “You can’t spend all the money, you have to keep the tuition and the cost of asking a tutor!”

Meng Huo currently only charges one month’s manuscript fee. Although the manuscript fee will arrive next month soon, the rent for the house will be deducted from it, so Li Qin’s heart is not at ease.

Ninghai No. 1 high school fees are 7,000 per year, but Meng Huo is in a special situation. He has to focus on comics, and he can only study with a tutor. Although Meng Huo felt it was unnecessary, Li Qin had a tough attitude.

“it is good…”

Meng Huo listened very much to what his mother said, but Alice next to her was surprised.

“Tutor? No need to ask, I am Meng Huo’s tutor!” She touched her head, her face turned reddish: “Looking at my memory, I seem to have forgotten to say, tutoring Meng Huo to study is also my job content.”

She is a top student who graduated from Yenching University. She is more than a tutor. Only then did Meng Huo understand the role of Alice, he had long wondered why there was an exclusive editor. The cartoonist is not a baby and does not need 1:1 editing assistance. Phoenix’s arrangement is very unreasonable.

But with tutoring, it’s different. Meng Huo is in a special situation. He needs to take care of both study and comics at the same time. Alice can take the lead to allocate time reasonably.

But to put it this way, Alice’s previous agent experience is very useful.

“Sister, are you a tutor?” Li Qin was both surprised and delighted. She believed in Alice’s ability, but would it be too troublesome for her: “In this way, let’s add some money to you. How much do you need…”

“No, no!” Alice quickly refused: “This is my job, and the company has given me ample payment.”

In fact, she really envied the company’s care for Meng Huo. She was also outstanding when she was young, but no one except her parents had spent money for her. In the final analysis, it is still a matter of strength. Meng Huo creates benefits for Phoenix, so he can naturally enjoy preferential treatment.

The next day, Meng Huo, who had dealt with chores, was accompanied by Alice to the Phoenix Building.

It was still working time, and he caused a sensation as soon as he entered the editorial department.

“Teacher He Xi, isn’t this a pity teacher!”

“Go and pour water!”

“Teacher He Xi, I’m Zhou Shang, the editor of the three groups. This is a business card. You can ask me to help if you need it in the future…”

“Teacher He Xi, when do you have time to meet other cartoonists, they all want to see you!”

The editors were enthusiastic, pouring tea and handing out business cards. Alice felt uncomfortable, so she stood beside Meng Huo and stretched out her hands to stop these editors’ enthusiasm.

“Can you guys stop poaching in front of me, he is now the editor!”

Alice is tall, and when she gets angry, the editors don’t move.

In fact, many editors have different thoughts about this new editor. The editors of Weekly Boys started a fierce competition after seeing “Detective Conan” become popular. As a result, no one became the editor in charge of Meng Huo—instead, he was snatched away by a woman.

But this result is fair. Alice is beautiful and attractive, and it is better to be snatched away by her than other colleagues. And there are more girls in the office, and many editors feel at ease.

“Well, Alice, don’t be angry, everyone, let’s go.”

There is an editor who is in the lead, and the other editors nodded and dispersed.

Alice led Meng Huo to find Ye Xiong. The editor-in-chief witnessed what happened just now and smiled happily: “It seems that you are getting along well.”

The most important thing for the editor in charge and the cartoonist is to get along. Ye Xiong was relieved on this point. He started to talk about the topic. The main reason for calling Meng Huo was that “Detective Conan” was going to release the comic booklet.

manga single-line book refers to the same comic work after serialization, the content of which is reprinted from the serial publication, and it becomes an independent book with a comic as the theme.

“I also saw the poster.”

Meng Huo had seen posters on the subway and found it strange: “Is there enough words in “Detective Conan”?”

For a long time, “Detective Conan” has been serialized in magazines at the speed of one Monday. Meng Huo doesn’t know how many words are needed to publish the book alone.

“enough.”

Ye Xiong nodded without hesitation: “Now that the comics are on fire, the company decides to strike while the iron is hot. When the ninth episode is serialized, it will release the first eight episodes. The estimated retail price is 20.”

Huaxia’s ordinary comic book has ten to fourteen chapters, and there are relatively few eight chapters, but the price is also cheap.

Meng Huo discussed with Ye Xiong, he didn’t find anything wrong, so he agreed. The release date of the comic booklet is very close, just after the beginning of school, in early September.

In addition to this incident, Ye Xiong also asked Meng Huo about his assistant. Many professional cartoonists rely on assistants for help. Although Meng Huo is efficient, Ye Xiong considered that he still has to take care of his studies, so he suggested that he hire two cartoon assistants to help.

However, hiring an assistant requires a cartoonist’s funding, and Meng Huo refused without hesitation. He knows his state, learning is not a difficult task for him at all, and it is easy to update a few words a week.

“Let’s talk about it when I serialize two comics, UU reading www.uukanshu.com then I will ask an assistant.”

Meng Huo said that even if there is an idea in his mind, the two comics require a lot of physical strength, and at that time he had to ask his assistant for help.

However, these words shocked both Alice and Ye Xiong.

“Two comics? Meng Huo, you have this plan!” Ye Xiong is especially nervous: “Don’t be aggressive, just draw a comic.”

He was very worried that Meng would get lost in his mind. It is difficult for ordinary people to serialize two comics at the same time. Even if they support it, the quality of the comics will decrease. Ye Xiong does not want to see this situation.

Meng Huo understood his worries, and didn’t say anything to death.

“I know, this is not just an example!”

Ye Xiong was relieved.

“Well, these are the things that I came to you today, and you can paint with peace of mind in the future.” He said to Meng Huo, and then looked at Alice: “Alice, you will be responsible for all these tasks in the future. , Discuss with me if you have any questions.”

These jobs were originally Alice’s, but Ye Xiong thought that she had only been with Meng Huo for two days, so he couldn’t help but feel relieved.

“I know.”

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

After the discussion, Alice wanted to stay in the editorial office to process the files. Meng Huo went home alone. Thinking of not having to pay for tutoring, he stopped by and bought a computer and broadband.

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