After a long speech at Xingchen Entertainment in the morning, after lunch and an hour's rest, Wu Ming came to the Order of the Phoenix again.

The news that Wu Ming was coming to the meeting had already been notified to the various management, and all the senior executives sat in the conference room early and waited for Wu Ming's arrival.

Wu Ming stepped forward and sat down on the main seat, glanced down, and saw that no one was absent, so he officially started the meeting.

"I'm here today for three things. ”

Everyone looked at Wu Ming intently, wondering what three things he would say.

"The first thing I would say was a raise. As you are well-informed, you may already know, I went to your brother company, Star Entertainment & Game Company, in the morning, and all of their staff made me double my salary. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Ming looked at everyone and saw that everyone was already smiling.

Wu Ming did not disappoint everyone.

So, in the future, all employees of the Order of the Phoenix will also double their salaries. ”

"Oh!"

"Great!"

Although they all knew that they might have to raise their salaries, they heard Wu Ming say that they would double their salaries, and everyone couldn't help cheering.

Zhang Dexin is relatively calm, after all, he has the dry shares of the Order of the Phoenix, coupled with the original salary, there are hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars that can be credited to the account every month, and I believe that he can earn more in the future, and it is not a dream to earn one million a month.

Wu Ming pressed his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"This second thing is about the comics after the end of "Hulu Little King Kong". I'm sure some of you have already seen my new manga "Speeding YOYO". If you haven't seen it, take a look at it and give your opinion. ”

While talking, Wu Ming asked his assistant to circulate "Speeding YOYO" to everyone.

After a while, everyone finished watching "Overdrive YOYO".

Wu Ming squinted his eyes and asked, "How is it, what do you think?"

Editor-in-chief Jin Tianxing first replied: "Boss, "Speeding YOYO" is very good-looking, and it is not like your previous comics, which are all children's comics. There is no specific bias in this manga, and children and teenagers will love this manga. ”

Editor-in-chief Hu Junguo was a little skeptical and said: "Boss, there is no yo-yo like the one in the comic on the market now, and there will be no one to read this comic when the time comes." ”

Wu Ming smiled and replied, "Don't worry, my dad's Tole Toy Company has produced the same new yo-yo as in the comics." It was just released in the past two days, and I drew this manga to match the sales plan of Dole Toys. “

"When the time comes, people who buy a new yo-yo are likely to come to see "Speeding YOYO". And most of the people who read the manga "Speeding YOYO" will also buy a yoyo to have a good time. Moreover, the yo-yos that are sold by Tole Toys can be found in the comics, which can also enhance the reader's sense of substitution. It's a win-win situation. ”

At this time, everyone realized that the boss had already prepared.

"Now comes the last thing, which is the topic of today. I'm going to buy the Flame Press. ”

As soon as Wu Ming's words came out, there was an uproar below. Also, the Holy Flame Publishing House is one of the only two overlords in the industry. Although the Phoenix Society is now developing rapidly with the help of Wu Ming's big tree, it is supported by Wu Ming alone, and the ability of other cartoonists under it is not good, and the combined sales are not as much as Wu Ming.

Although talented cartoonists are also being recruited everywhere these days, the foundation is still a little weak, and there is still a big gap with the Holy Flame Publishing House. And now that Wu Ming said that he was going to buy the Holy Flame Publishing House, it was no wonder that everyone was so surprised.

Zhang Dexin couldn't help it at first, and said: "Boss, the Holy Flame Publishing House is an old publishing house, where did we get so much money to buy it." ”

Editor-in-chief Hu Junguo took over the conversation casually: "Yes, boss." The Holy Flame Publishing House is now in full swing, how can Shangguan Xiaobao sell it to us. ”

The others also said a lot of reasons, the purpose was to make Wu Ming dispel the idea of acquiring the Holy Flame Publishing House.

"Alright, stop for me. ”

When everyone heard Wu Ming's shouting, they all quieted down.

Wu Ming sorted out his language, and his face was full of confident smiles.

"I know all of what you're talking about, but it's not a big deal. Now that Xingchen Entertainment's arcade machine is a big hit, it can already pay back all the debts, which is more than 4 million Hong Kong dollars. In addition, our Phoenix Society has not lent any more funds to Star Entertainment for a while, and we should have saved almost more than 5 million Hong Kong dollars. It adds up to nearly 10 million, and if it's not enough, you can borrow from the bank. So that the problem of funding is solved. ”

"As for the fact that the Flame Press will not sell it, this problem can be solved. Don't look at the Holy Flame Publishing House, which looks powerful now, but in fact, it has long been overwhelmed by Huang Yulang's Yulang International, and Shangguan Xiaobao is now also divorced from other shareholders. As long as we are willing to pay a lot of money, they will definitely sell to us. ”

When everyone heard Wu Ming's explanation, they also suddenly realized.

"In that case, it is really possible for us to buy the Holy Flame Publishing House. ”

When Zhang Dexin heard that it was possible to acquire the Holy Flame Publishing House, he also looked impatient. He has the shares of the Order of the Phoenix, and if the Order of the Phoenix can successfully acquire the Flame Publishing House, his shares will be even more valuable.

Before Wu Ming left, he finally said: "Then this meeting is over, tomorrow Uncle Zhang, you will take someone to negotiate with the Holy Flame Publishing House, as long as the price is within 15 million Hong Kong dollars, I can accept it." ”

After speaking, Wu Ming left the conference room humming a song.

After Zhang Dexin saw Wu Ming leaving, he was not idle, but discussed with everyone how to acquire the Holy Flame Publishing House in the shortest time and at the lowest cost.

……

The next day, Zhang Dexin led people to the Holy Flame Publishing House early in the morning. At that time, the employees of the Holy Flame Publishing House were a little confused, and they didn't know why the president of the Phoenix Society came to their company, but they didn't snub Zhang Dexin, and hurriedly invited Zhang Dexin and others into the reception room.

As soon as Shangguan Xiaobao entered the reception room, he said politely.

"President Zhang finally came to our holy fire, why don't you give us a notice, so that we can prepare and welcome you well. ”

"Whereever, how can we bother Mr. Kwong to bother with us. ”

Mr. Kuang in Zhang Dexin's mouth is Shangguan Xiaobao, and Shangguan Xiaobao's original name is Kuang Dongyuan.

In this way, Zhang Dexin and Shangguan Xiaobao, you complimented each other every word. The two of them chatted happily, making the people next to them star.

"Your society has been developing very fiercely recently!"

"How can it compare to your company's current position in the comics market?"

Finally, Zhang Dexin did not forget his mission to come to the Holy Flame Publishing House today, and finally got to the topic.

"Mr. Kuang, I came to your company today mainly because I have a major matter to discuss with you. ”

"What is it that wants President Zhang to come to our company to discuss?"

"Our boss wants to buy your company. ”

"What?"

Shangguan Xiaobao was taken aback, he had been guessing what Zhang Dexin was doing from his own publishing house, but he didn't expect that he actually wanted to buy his own publishing house.

"President Zhang, you're not joking. Now that our flame is much stronger than your society, how can it be merged into your society. ”

Zhang Dexin smiled and said his reasons.

"Your company, although it is much stronger than my society now. But a discerning person can know at a glance that the future of our Phoenix Society is much brighter than the future of your Holy Flame Publishing House, and if your society does not sell it to us, will it not be possible to sell it to Huang Yulang's Yulang International? ”

When Shangguan Xiaobao heard this, he couldn't help but be silent. He knew in his heart that the flames were not having a good time now, so he relied on his own "Bruce Lee" to support it, but he sold less than 100,000 copies per issue, and if this continued, it would be eaten up by other publishing houses sooner or later. The difference is only in which publishing house to surrender to.

Zhang Dexin saw Shangguan Xiaobao's hesitation, knew that there was a drama in this matter, and continued to make a big announcement.

"Mr. Kwong, our boss said that as long as the Order of the Phoenix buys the Holy Flame Publishing House. We will keep the original crew of the flame. Moreover, our boss and Mr. Kwong have the same heroic views, and they also want to run a comic weekly that can serialize multiple comics like those comic publishers in RB. ”

"After the merger, Mr. Kwong, you will be the editor-in-chief of the Order of the Phoenix, and you will still have a great say. I wonder what you think, Mr. Kwong?"

Shangguan Xiaobao's eyes lit up when he heard this, obviously attracted by this information. You must know that over the years, Shangguan Xiaobao has spent most of his savings in order to be able to build a serialization platform like "Weekly Shonen Jump".

Shangguan Xiaobao tried in various newspapers and magazines, but they all failed. Otherwise, in the future, he would not have fallen into the arms of Huang Yulang, an old rival.

Shangguan Xiaobao thought that since Wu Ming, the owner of the Order of the Phoenix, also wanted to do what he had always wanted to do. It is better to temporarily invest in Wu Ming's command, after all, it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and I heard that Wu Ming's game company is also very profitable, and there are enough funds for his own use. I'm not afraid that the comic weekly will not be able to survive because of lack of funds like before.

Shangguan Xiaobao's eyes gradually became firm, and he finally made a decision.

"Okay, I agree to this acquisition. However, I am not the only shareholder of the Holy Flame Publishing House, and President Zhang has to convince the other shareholders. ”

"No problem, I will definitely get the other shareholders of the Holy Flame Press to agree to this acquisition. Mr. Kwong is waiting to be my colleague!"

"President Zhang, please rest assured, I will do my best to help you convince others. ”

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Xiaobao couldn't wait to leave the conference room and go to the other shareholders of the Holy Flame Publishing House to explain the matter.
