Chapter 150: Awards
In the two-dimensional world, not being able to cook may be a cute point. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ But it's not a wonderful thing to really live with this kind of person.
Apricot once had a glorious record of setting the kitchen on fire, but it was just a lack of common sense. As long as you fill in the basics, you won't have to do anything stupid about mixing sugar, water, and hot oil together.
Fortunately, Li Shanhe is a chef, and training a new chef is a matter of handy.
Knife work is the basic skill of Chinese cuisine. Apricot tied up her hair, put on an apron, knelt on the kitchen stool and practiced hard, and the sound of dangdang was endless.
Li Shanhe walked out of the studio, the corners of his mouth twitched, "Hey, it's okay, you have cut the ten catties of potatoes you bought by yourself, enough to eat for a week." β
"Not yet! That's not enough! Apricot rubbed her somewhat sore wrist and encouraged herself, "I'm going to be a good boy!" Start by working your cooking skills! I want to be a bride that makes mountains and rivers proud! β
"What a stupid thing to say, cooking is to fill your stomach, but it's not a bride's practice! And what the hell I'm proud of! Li Shanhe complained, walked over and patted her head with a book, "Besides, don't go to the other extreme." Apricot is originally a child, so it's normal to have a little vitality. Don't turn yourself into an old-fashioned one. β
"Huh? YouβDon't you always say that apricots are too naughty? β
"Naughty and energetic are not contradictory." Li Shanhe shrugged, "It's good not to be pranky in the future, but it's the aura on the apricot, I don't hate it." This is the specialty of apricots. β
Stupid, stupid, what to say at this time!
Apricot Tea's face is hot, and you don't need to look in the mirror to know that it must be red. Is this a confession? Yes, this must be a confession!
Oh no, no...... What should we call our third child?
Just then, the doorbell rang.
"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Apricot put down the kitchen knife and ran to open the door.
Seeing the visitor, she couldn't help but "tsk", turned her head and shouted: "Shanhe, it's Miss Thief next door!" β
"What a thief! I've got a name! β
Saotome Maiko was carrying a bag of books, and when she saw Li Shanhe, she couldn't help but complain, "Hey, didn't you say that you wanted to train her to be a sensible and polite beautiful girl?" Or is it just for me? β
Apricot grinned: "I'm very polite, didn't I add the word 'Miss'?" β
Maiko covered her forehead helplessly and put the bag on the coffee table: "Shanhe, this is this issue of the magazine, and there are letters from readers." β
"What magazine?" Apricot looked at it curiously, her surprised little mouth couldn't close, and she held the magazine high: "Is it the next issue of "Shonen Jump"?!" Isn't it going to be released in two days! Why do you have the next issue of the magazine? β
Maiko said proudly: "You know how good I am!" β
"Uh-huh! Maiko-san is really amazing! β
The child is really good at coaxing, especially the admiration light from his eyes, which makes Maiko feel that her image is much taller all of a sudden.
"Actually, it's a sample issue. Every serialized teacher will receive it. β
"Sample? Teacher? Apricot blinked, "Isn't Shanhe a small boss who runs a company?" Why do you call him Sensei? β
"Don't you know?" Maiko was surprised, "The mountains and rivers are Ai Luo Wuyong." β
Nani!
Apricot looked at Li Shanhe in shock.
Li Shanhe patted her head: "Don't pretend." A few days ago, you ran to the studio to play, and the color page of "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes" was also missing, and the Kanban Niang pear sand was moved by you. I don't believe you didn't guess. β
Apricot who was seen through her careful thinking stuck out her tongue: "Hehe, people want to make Shanhe feel the admiration of others, but I've been practicing in front of the mirror for a long time." β
Now it's Maiko's turn to be hit, and the light of admiration just now turned out to be pretended? I'm even triumphant...... This little kid is so hateful!
Li Shanhe coughed: "Don't talk about this, didn't you say that you have something to talk about?" β
"Ah, yes, the teacher is like this, the head office held a mid-year banquet, I hope you can attend, it seems to be going to give you an award."
"Awards? Forget it, I'm not interested. β
"I can't say that, teacher, this is a banquet held by the Ichinobashi head office, and I can see a lot of big people." Maiko said mysteriously, "You remember, we made a bet with the Shogakukan that if we win, it will make us financially independent. I've heard that at this banquet, the reorganization of Shueisha will be announced. β
Reshuffle?
Li Shanhe's heart moved, it is estimated that this is the handwriting of Mitarai Gang, and the Jiying society has been split up......
"Okay, I see. I'll be there. Ah, by the way, I'm definitely going to want to give a speech or something when I win the award, and that's going to get rid of you. β
---
Li Shanhe has never been interested in banquets, and since he became famous, various awards have come one after another. Most of them are scammers, like "pay xxxx yen and you can be on the xxxx celebrity list in Japan" and the like.
However, the level of this banquet is extraordinary. Shueisha is certainly the hottest shonen manga king right now, but Shogakukan doesn't just have "Shonen Sunday". After years of intensive cultivation, the Shogakukan is a real powerhouse in the field of educational publishing.
The banquet was attended by a large number of people, including publishing houses, magazines, printing houses, paper mills, ink factories, bookstore chains, ...... The one-stop industrial chain from top to bottom has allowed Li Shanhe to see the strength of Yizhiqiao Publishing Group.
"It's really powerful, it deserves to be a consortium. From top to bottom, they have their own business. β
The banquet was in the form of Western cold dishes, Li Shanhe took a glass of juice, found a corner to sit silently, and then waited until the host on the stage shouted his name, and came to the stage to receive the trophy of "Best Newcomer of the Year", everyone applauded, delivered a speech, and took a curtain call......
Originally, everything went well, but when he was about to go home after the curtain call, a lot of reporters came around, and under the flash, Li Shanhe hurriedly covered his face with his hands.
"Mr. Takeshi Airo, some people say that you are the second Osamu Tezuka, what do you think of this award? Could it be the starting point of your career? β
"Mr. Takeyong Aira, you have single-handedly carried Shueisha, do you have any tricks in this? Do you have any grievances about the distribution of benefits? β
"Mr. Ai Luo Wuyong, no one has ever been able to serialize so many comics at the same time, may I ask the rumors of ghostwriting circulating outside, what is your response......"
Finally getting rid of these reporters, Li Shanhe hurriedly ran outside the corridor of the hotel.
Maiko walked over with a smile and said, "Teacher, how does it feel to win the award?" β
"I'm bored to death. Whoever put the reporter in, next time it's like this, I won't come. β
"This is the first time you've appeared in a newspaper, and you've always kept yourself in hiding." Maiko smiled and took a sip of champagne, "After today, your position as a first-line manga artist will be very secure." β
"Cartoonists rely on the support of readers, not journalists to save face. I'd rather keep a low profile. Li Shanhe shrugged, he didn't forget that he was still a singer, and he didn't want any media to mix these two identities together.
got a cheap deal, and Maiko gave him a blank look: "Okay, I'm going to enjoy the food, teacher, stay alone, don't leave too quickly, there will be a lottery in a while." β
Wuzi left temporarily, Li Shanhe didn't plan to stay here to participate in the lottery, and just wanted to leave the venue, when the golden wire glasses came over and said, "Mr. Li, it turns out that you are here." β
"Ah, Mr. Kodo? What are you doing here? β
Gold-rimmed glasses lifted their frames, "Rushing for your acquisition of Shueisha." There are a few people who would like you to meet. β
"What?"
The gold wire glasses introduced Li Shanhe to a hotel room, and there were already three people in suits and leather shoes in it.
These three people are shareholders of the headquarters of the Ichinobashi Group, and after touting each other, they came up with a contract of intent to transfer shares.
"The contract will not take effect until Shueisha is spun off. You purchase a 21.6% stake for 320 million yen, which can be deferred and guaranteed by Mr. Mitarai's credit. β
Intent contracts are not binding, they just communicate with each other. After Li Shanhe read it, he signed his name on it.
"Mr. Xiaodong, you are more actionable than I thought."
"No, no, in a few days, Shueisha's restructuring plan will be announced. Either way, you now have at least 37% of the shares and can compete for the chairmanship, and it just so happens that you have experience running a publishing house, so I'll take care of the rest. β
"Then please."
When the two walked out of the room, Li Shanhe accidentally glanced at it and found that there was a familiar figure in the venue below.
"Wait, Mr. Kodo," he said, pointing to the man who was eating and drinking, "do you know this man?" β
"Kai Kui? It seems to be from Saitama Prefecture," the gold wire glasses glanced at it curiously, and quickly recalled the corresponding information in his mind, "He is also one of the shareholders of the company, but he is very stingy, like this kind of banquet with food, drink and gifts, he will definitely attend it all at once." β
"Shareholders? How many shares does he have? β
"About 1%, just enough to participate in the shareholders' meeting." The golden glasses said curiously, "What, do you know him?" If you want to buy his shares, and the gains outweigh the losses, he will definitely open his mouth. β
The landlord of the bun from Saitama Prefecture is shrewd and cunning, this is the label that the gold wire glasses put on the Kai Kai Kuidou.
"Ah, I just heard about it by chance." Li Shanhe smiled.
I didn't expect to meet him here...... Kai Kai is the owner of Bone Island.
This guy is very greedy, so even though Li Shanhe has saved enough 100 million yen, he did not rashly contact him. The value of Gudao lies in the certificate stamped and issued by the king of Joseon, if he knew that this certificate could be sold for billions, there would be nothing to do with Li Shanhe.
Only a few months later, because this guy is too fat, has a heart attack, and walks in front of death, will he desperately sell his family to raise money for a heart transplant, and then it will be the time for him to make a move.
But well...... It's not like he can't do anything now, but at least try to make his heart a little more taxing.
He and the gold wire glasses confessed, walked over, and patted Kai Fei on the shoulder: "Is it Mr. Kai?" β
Jia Fei Kuidou turned his head with difficulty, he was like a mountain of meat, and on his fat face, a pair of small eyes flashed with shrewd light: "If there is no money to be made, don't come and disturb me to eat!" β
"There is one thing to make money, I don't know if you have heard of Shueisha's spin-off plan?"
"Do you know the details?"
"Of course." Li Shanhe said with a smile, "I am also a shareholder here, maybe we can support each other on the board of directors?" This is not the place to talk, I wonder if you are interested in Chinese cuisine? β
As soon as he heard that there was food, Kai Kuidou's small eyes lit up: "You have a treat?" β
"I'm in for a treat, feel free to eat!"
Jia Fei Kuidou hurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth: "Then what are you waiting for!" Let's go! β
----
Li Shanhe is carrying out his sugar-coated cannonball plan, preparing to fatten up the Jiafei Kuidou.
On the other side, the primary school hall is gloomy.
The president of the elementary school hall put down the newspaper, which was published at the banquet last night, and the photo of Mr. Ai Luo Wuyong appeared in the media for the first time, although Li Shanhe covered his face with his hand, but he couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the reporters, and he was extremely sought after.
The marathon race between the two is coming to an end, and the Shogakukan has exhausted its hole cards, and there is no longer the ability to stop Shueisha's spin-off and independence.
Now, the president has seen it. Although the performance of the Shogakukan was dismal under his own leadership, there was no strong accusation from the headquarters, because on the whole, the income of the group company was growing.
But some people don't think so.
Beidalu's face was as heavy as water, and his temples, which were originally white, had completely turned white at this time. These days, he has been frightened, watching Li Shanhe rise step by step, and his own invitations are getting fewer and fewer, and his status has been completely reversed.
"Bastard! Aren't we comrades in a trench? Did you just give up? He's not a person, and you should know how much it means to be behind him! β
The president said helplessly: "Mr. Beidalu, didn't you see yesterday's banquet?" Many shareholders arrived, and Shueisha's financial independence was imperative. He sighed, "After this battle, he has fame, allies, and enough status, and he is no longer a role that you and I can shake." β
"Don't forget what you promised me!" Beidalu's face turned red with excitement, "I'm here, I'm joining you, and then I'm driving him away...... But you are powerless to hold him down! It's your responsibility! Now you have to find a way to get rid of him! β
The president's face sank: "I've done my best!" If you are dissatisfied with my work, please hire someone else! β
"Good, good!" Beida Road trembled angrily, "Don't forget that this is not my business alone, it is the responsibility of all the members of our Japanese Shield!" Your son is also a member and has enjoyed the benefits, and we are now fighting for the honor of Japan! β
A big hat was buttoned down, and the president was also annoyed:
"What the glory of Japan is, it's not your selfishness! You've already enjoyed the benefits, you copied other people's drafts, and I gave you so many contracts, what else are you dissatisfied with? If you have the ability, you can directly talk to Mr. Mishima in person! Let's see if he will defend you! ββEven Osamu Tezuka can't suppress that Chinese, what can I do! β
Beida Road was poked in the sore spot, and he jumped straight to his feet in anger.
In the shield of Japan, his position is very embarrassing, everyone is a young and vigorous young hawk, and an old man like him is a minority.
He was able to join the organization because of his literary influence; And in this wave of offensives, Beida Road is the vanguard again. The purpose of this offensive was to protect the honor of Japan and expel Li Shanhe.
The failures again and again have already made the Japanese shield discuss whether to deprive Beidaji of his identity, so he can't help but be in a hurry.
Just then, the security guard knocked on the door and came in: "President, we heard a quarrel here." Are you okay? β
The president didn't reply, and glanced at the north road. The security guard got the hint and walked over to him from left to right, clasping his arm.
"Let go of me, I'll go myself!"
Beidalu snorted coldly and tidied up his clothes.
To leave is to break up. Seeing that the other party was about to push the door away, the president suddenly said:
"Mr. Beidalu, it's not completely impossible. You should know, what is the last resort. β
The back of the north road suddenly froze.
The president sneered: "I can't hold it down, that's really my incompetence." But now, it's time to consider whether you're selfish or not. So what are you waiting for? Let me see how loyal you are to the 'Glory of Japan'." β
Bei Daolu's hand holding the cane was trembling, gritting his teeth fiercely, and slamming the door.
