At about seven o'clock in the evening, Meng Fan left Kodansha, and there was a preliminary contract in his backpack, and the form of the contract was naturally the cooperation agreement with Kodansha that Meng Fan requested.

Of course, not all the contracts are as Meng Fan wishes, there must be some requirements and conditions that Kodansha cannot compromise, and these requirements and conditions are originally Meng Fan's room for bargaining, in short, above the bottom line of his own acceptance.

Kodansha must have put forward some of its own demands, but the demands were all within the scope of the cooperation agreement, and most of them were accepted by Meng Fan.

For example, some treaties that sound unequal, including Kodansha's ability to terminate manga serialization and transfer serialization at any time, and so on.

In addition, in addition to the animation copyright of "Strange Man in the Mountains and Seas" operated by Kodansha, the film and television copyright of the neon area is also authorized to Kodansha to operate.

If "Stranger in the Mountains and Seas" shoots a neon version of a movie or TV series, Kodansha will do it.

Meng Fan wants comics to be serialized in Neon, in addition to wanting to take Guoman to land on Neon from the bottom of his heart, this is the same as acting, wanting to go to Hollywood, playing basketball, wanting to go to the NBA, playing football, wanting to go to the top five European leagues, playing table tennis wanting to go to China, and also wanting to get distribution channels through signing.

If a comic wants to be popular, it must need a serial platform, whether it is a comic magazine or a website, and then you can release a single book, otherwise, no one knows and has no popularity.

Neon comic serialization and comic publishing and even book publishing are basically in these three publishing houses, and it is difficult for Meng Fan's comics to land on Neon to bypass these comic three.

Even if the contract fails this time, even if Meng Fan's comics become popular in China, even if they come directly to Neon to sell single books, they still have to find one of them as a distribution channel.

Unlike in China, Meng Fan can find a random platform to serialize comics, and then find a publishing house to print and publish them, and then he can sell them on his own.

Of course, even in China, if Meng Fan is not confident, whether it is a platform or a publishing house, Meng Fan can eat in various ways like an ordinary cartoonist who has signed an exclusive or exclusive contract.

It is precisely because of this confidence that Meng Fan was able to sign a cooperation contract with Kodansha without any scruples.

If, because the cooperation agreement with Kodansha has already authorized part of the copyright, the website or publishing house is unwilling to sign a contract with Meng Fan, then pull it down, and Meng Fan can come by himself.

Otherwise, when signing a contract with Kodansha, Meng Fan will have to take into account the next domestic market.

This time, the signing of the contract with Kodansha was only an agreement and a contract was drawn up, but it was not signed and sealed. The first is that Meng Fan needs time to find a professional to come over and check the content of the contract, and the second is to leave an opening to go back and talk to Penguin Animation.

At that time, regardless of whether the negotiation with Penguin Animation Network is completed or not, Goro Takahashi will fly to Huaxia to find Meng Fan to officially sign a contract.

If there is a negotiation with Penguin Animation Network, then some of the requirements and conditions of Penguin must also be considered, and then go back to Kodansha to discuss it, and while keeping the red line with each other, it is of course best if it can promote a win-win situation.

declined the dinner invitation of Goro Takahashi and others, saying that he had an appointment in the evening, but in fact Meng Fan really had an appointment, the second sister Meng Cailian helped him make an appointment for a Michelin dinner, and the third sister Meng Caiwei made an appointment with her friend for ten yuan to eat with Meng Fan.

However, Meng Fan did not refuse Goro Takahashi to send a car to him, and after saying goodbye to getting in the car, Meng Fan said an address, and then took out his mobile phone to make a call to Yixin.

"Strange Man of Mountains and Seas" must be serialized in China, and the first choice of the serialized website must be Penguin Animation Network, first of all, Penguin Animation Network is the largest comic serialization platform in China, and second, it is familiar and too lazy to change places.

Yesterday, Meng Fan shamelessly rewarded himself with 100 million penguin coins, and then those iron fans with the same high commotion value smashed out a hundred leagues, not only smashed "Strange Man of Mountains and Seas", which can even be said to have no introduction, to the top of the best-selling list, but also created a sales record since the establishment of Penguin Animation Network.

Not to mention that the website was shocked, even the entire industry was boiling.

The comic "Strange Man in the Mountains and Seas" can be said to be "popular before it is broadcast", and there is no content, and its popularity has reached the peak of the entire serial career of many well-known comics.

A lot of high-level officials of Penguin Animation Network came to ask Yixin what was going on, and Yixin was about to cry, how do I know what it means, I also want to know!

Seeing that the phone rang from Meng Fan, Yixin immediately picked it up, and after listening to a few words, Yixin's expression changed, and then, the voice of surprise resounded throughout the office.

"What? You're signed with Kodansha?"

"And it's a contract of cooperation?"

"You're really neon!"

"Just giving Kodansha the rights to "Stranger of Mountains and Seas" in the neon area?"

"The rest of the rights are still in your own hands?"

"Ready to sign with Penguin Animation?"

"Zhongni synchronous update?"

"Oh, heh, it's okay to talk?

"Oh my God, how did you do that!"

"Okay, I'll go talk about it right away!"

"Master Meng, please keep your phone unblocked!"

After hanging up the phone, Yixin rushed to the editor-in-chief's office, leaving the editors in the public office area on this floor all confused.

What's the situation?

If you heard it right, it seems that "Strange Man of the Mountains and Seas" got the opportunity to be serialized at Kodansha, and moreover, it is still a cooperation contract, and most of the copyright is still in hand, and now I am ready to sign a contract on Penguin Anime Network!

The editors know all too well what Kodansha is, what a partnership is, and what copyright is, and they know what it means.

It's just that I can't figure out how Meng Fan did it?

This operation is much more sassy than rewarding yourself with 100 million penguin coins!

Meng Fan smiled after hanging up the phone, this new senior is not calm.

Well, to be honest, Meng Fan is no better.

Anyway, Meng Fan is still very excited about the opportunity to take Guoman's landing neon and neon comics to wrestle his wrists.

Playing with his mobile phone back and forth with both hands, he suddenly remembered, and immediately sent another message to Wu Tong, Wu Tong knew what Meng Fan was doing here, since there was good news, of course he had to tell her.

Wu Tong's reply came quickly, "So, you ran out alone, right?"

“……”

Meng Fan patted his head and forgot about this stubble.

Soon Wu Tong replied again: "(smiley) Although I am a little angry, I still congratulate you." Come back early, and before you come back, it's best to stay at Seventh Brother's. ”

"Yes!"

After chatting a few words, the car entered the Chuo Ward Ginza to the Tsukamoto Main Industry Building, Meng Fan got off the car and entered the basement floor, and finally saw a basement shop with a narrow foyer, this is a sushi restaurant called "Sukiya Hashijiro", this is the restaurant that Meng Fan's second sister finally made an appointment, and it is also the place where Meng Fan and Ten Yuan will eat next.

When he arrived at the door, Meng Fan thought about it, and honestly explained to Wu Tong, "That, I have already scheduled a trip to Lion City and Neon, my sister asked me to give one thing to Satomi Ishihara, and by the way, I am at the door of the restaurant now." ”

To be honest, Meng Fan is not too stupid, he always has to find an excuse, and the pot still has to be thrown to Meng Caiwei.

Wu Tong replied, "Ten yuan, go, I won't eat this kind of flying vinegar thousands of kilometers away." ”

Meng Fan looked at it and immediately replied, "I promise that after eating, I will go to find Brother Qi immediately!"

didn't mention idols and fans, only said that he wouldn't eat flying vinegar thousands of kilometers away, Meng Fan heard that he had something to say.

I didn't care if I wasn't together before, but now that we're together, it's definitely different, don't say anything about idol fans, with the charm that Meng Fan exudes all over his body now, maybe who is an idol and who is a fan, Wu Tong is not blind.

This has nothing to do with whether you trust Meng Fan or not, and it has nothing to do with whether you are confident in yourself.

A man can give him space, but a proper beating is necessary.

Wu Tong won't be a Buddhist girl at this point.

After chatting, Meng Fan walked into this sushi restaurant that looked very small but was actually really small, and there were only 10 seats in the entire restaurant.

Despite its small size, it is a three-Michelin-starred restaurant where chef Jiro Ono is known as the "God of Sushi".

At this restaurant, you need to reserve a seat at least a month in advance, a meal lasts for 15 minutes, and the average person consumes 30,000 neon coins, and the average customer can't eat the craftsmanship of the "sushi god" when they go to the store.

Meng Fan had just been brought to his seat, and was thinking that ten yuan should also arrive, when a chef in work clothes stepped in small steps with a surprised face and walked to Meng Fan.

"San!"
