The next day, many newspapers reported on Phoenix's pre-sale.

"It was unexpectedly hot, only two minutes after the pre-sale began, all the hotels on Manga Island were sold out and tickets for the event were sold out!" -- The headline of the "Suhua Daily" is this, and although it is not a front-page headline, it is also quite conspicuous.

And other newspapers do not want to show weakness, Yanjing Daily to "what a pity for the dealer's nightmare" to describe last night's incident, on the night of the pre-sale, the sales heat did not surprise the reporters, but the Phoenix company's suppression of the trafficker made many people's eyes shine.

Ninghai's best-selling newspaper of the day was one that described the crackdown on the night through personal experience, and the newspaper sold even more than Ninghai's most popular newspaper in the past.

"Ninghai Daily" chose the wrong subject today, it actually aimed at Phoenix's temporary change of rules and change of captcha, saying that Phoenix was overbearing and disrespectful to consumers -- and then caused a bad feeling in Ninghai's comic fan base.

"What is disrespect! I think Phoenix is right to do that! ”

"That's right, as long as anyone who likes He Xi Teacher knows, this is obviously taking care of us readers...... If it weren't for the temporary change of the rules, how could ordinary people buy those few tickets! ”

"But anyway, it was originally said that it was like this, but suddenly it changed, it's too messy!"

"It's a pre-sale! Hotels all over the country can refund tickets before check-in, why can't you refund tickets if you buy Manga Island? Phoenix's approach is disgusting! ”

The report of the "Ninghai Daily" also set off a small quarrel in Ninghai, but this quarrel did not expand, and it was not right to quarrel with the Phoenix Company. Comic book readers seem to prefer to see the peddlers deflated.

Most of the people who managed to buy tickets this time were ordinary tourists. So the positive effects far outweigh the negatives. On the morning of the next day, the animation department also received a call from the Ninghai headquarters praising them for doing a good job.

The intelligence at the headquarters seems to be different, and not many people know that this matter is related to Meng Huo, and many people think that it is the credit of the animation department. However, Meng Huo didn't mind, he was very satisfied with the room reservation during the carnival, but he was more concerned about the situation later.

Last night's pre-sale was the rooms and tickets for those days of the carnival, however after that wave, this morning began. It's a pity that there will also be room reservations after the carnival at the House Forum - this is also a key matter.

The carnival is over in a few days, and the traffic in those days is not a problem, the question is how much traffic can be guaranteed after the carnival? To know this, you can see the trend in hotel bookings in the later stages of the carnival.

Manga Island employs thousands of college students, but you can't keep them busy for just a few days.

At noon, before getting off work, Meng Shu came to the animation department again.

"We opened the room reservation from the end of the carnival to the university town before the start of the semester, and it was 80% booked in one morning." He Qian opened the webpage and reported to Meng Shu with a happy face: "I can definitely book all of them today!" ”

After the carnival is over, Phoenix will maintain some activities. Including voice actors, they will also actively participate, which can make readers who are not available during the carnival or who can't buy tickets come and play later.

It can be sold out in one day. This means that the enthusiasm of the readers is still high. The carnival has a month to start in the university town, and even if each person books a room for two days, a room can accommodate more than a dozen people. It's actually amazingly enthusiastic, and it's just online, if you change to a real guest, Manga Island is absolutely not quiet during this summer vacation.

If the carnival is successful, it will attract more people one after another.

"We can celebrate in advance."

He Qian even said with a smile that it can be seen from the current number of reservations that the disadvantage of the carnival being arranged in the summer vacation has completely disappeared, and this year's carnival will be a great success in terms of the number of tourists.

"It's not the end yet, don't worry too soon." Meng Shu breathed a sigh of relief, but still reminded He Qian not to relax too much, the carnival has not yet been held, and the Phoenix Company should maintain a cautious attitude.

The two chatted about the carnival, and it was time to get off work.

"It's rare to be together, and the teachers eat together?" He Qian looked at her watch and said with a smile: "You have to go to Tokyo in the afternoon, there should be no one to make an appointment at noon, right?" ”

Although the carnival is approaching, Meng Huo's other work cannot be delayed, and he still has to fly to Tokyo every once in a while to make "Mobile Suit Gundam 00", and today is the day of his departure. According to the usual practice, he should not have any work to socialize at noon.

"No, it just so happens that I really have someone to ...... today"

However, unexpectedly, Meng Shu really had something to do this time.

"Then I'll go first." He said goodbye to He Qian, and then turned around to leave the animation department, but when he went out, he saw Han Xuan guarding the door a little stiffly, as if waiting for him to come out.

And seeing Meng Shu come out, Han Xuan's eyes lit up.

"Meng ......" She just wanted to call Meng Shu's name, and then she felt that so many people in the animation department were watching, so she quickly changed her tone: "What a pity, teacher, we have a few people who want to meet you, do you have time?" ”

Meng was stunned for a moment, and then quickly understood who she meant by 'we'.

"I'm sorry, I've been very busy lately......" Meng Shu smiled bitterly, he found that he was indeed a little busy, he came to the animation department twice in two days, and every time he saw Han Xuan, he didn't say more than three sentences, which is not a good phenomenon.

If this continues, his rare few young friends will become strangers sooner or later.

"I'm about to leave Su Hua, apologize to Li Yu and Liu Yi for me......" But Meng Shu had no choice now, he sighed slightly, and then said: "Let's talk about it when I come back, I'll take you to have fun!" ”

He apologized, said a few more words, and then left in Han Xuan's regretful gaze. Han Xuan wanted to stop him, but she was a little confused - "Why should I stop him?" The identities of the two are not equal, she does not have the confidence to stop Meng Shu, and it seems that the relationship between the two is vague whether they are friends or not.

"Will Shen Jie become like this in the future?"

Han Xuan thought so, and at the same time, Meng Shu, who was taking the elevator downstairs, was also thinking about a similar question.

"I've been getting more and more estranged from them lately...... he found that he seemed to have a bigger separation from his peers, who he used to think were friends, and still feels like that, but what about them?

Meng Shu had never been in contact with them, and even if he wanted to treat them as friends, as time went on, those people would feel more and more strange to him. The sense of familiarity disappears, and the sense of awe increases—and one day, they will look at him in the same way as ordinary employees of Phoenix.

"I really don't want to see that day come."

Meng Shu sighed slightly, he actually liked them very much, if they became like everyone else, it would not be a good thing for him. Especially Liu Yi, a friend in his previous life, Meng Shu didn't want him to treat him as a stranger.

No matter what the future holds, Meng Huo wants to keep this simple friendship, maybe it won't bring any benefits, but if it is lost, it will be difficult to find. Not only him and them, but also Shen Jie and them. And to do this, in addition to Liu Yi's actions, Meng Shu and the others can't be too alienated from them.

Han Xuan's invitation to Meng Huo just now was actually very surprising to him, those four people had his mobile phone number, but they never had the courage to invite him, and no one even dared to send him a message, no matter what their personality was, the four of them were more introverted when they treated him, only Liu Yun and Shen Jie seemed to be chatting happily...... And this time, Han Xuan seems to have taken the initiative a lot, which is very good.

Meng decided to come back and play with them, and he felt like he wanted to take a break.

But before that, it was better for him to deal with the matter in front of him first - after walking out of the building, Meng Shu got into a black car, but this was not a car from the Phoenix Company, but a car sent by the Meng family to pick him up.

The lunch on this day was also the day when Meng Huo and the old lady got together.

During the dinner of the "...... of the carnival held in those days", the old lady suddenly said: "I will also go to the manga island to have a look, I haven't seen such a lively event for several years." ”

Meng Shu immediately straightened up: "I will arrange appropriate people to protect you." ”

"You ......" the old lady was amused: "Forget it, do I still need your protection?" Don't worry, even if the sky falls, I won't be able to do anything. ”

The Meng family's ability is naturally higher than that of Meng Shu, Meng Shu thought about it, since the old lady wanted to go, then the Meng family was naturally completely prepared, so he didn't continue to argue about security: "Then my mother's side ......"

"I'll pick her up." The old lady smiled: "Isn't it boring to be alone? I will let this daughter-in-law accompany me. ”

Meng Shu was completely relieved, he was originally thinking about how to accompany Li Qin at the carnival, but now that the old lady is out of the horse, it is estimated that Li Qin will have to accompany her throughout the carnival.

"And ...... The question of your new comic ......" The old lady paused, and suddenly said, "If you don't decide on the theme, do you want to listen to me?" There's a stubborn old guy here who keeps clamoring for you to draw! ”

Meng Yu was stunned for a moment, and then frowned slightly: "What is Jianyì?" ”

The old lady stopped her chopsticks, thought for a moment, and then shook her head again: "Forget it, forget it...... You haven't come back yet, and I don't want you to do anything, so it's up to you what you want to draw, but it's best if you decide the comics at the carnival......"

She knew that Meng Huo's new comic was very passive, and with the government's idea, it was difficult to announce the new comic now, but it was okay when the carnival was held, and the early announcement of this matter would be less troublesome for Meng Shu. (To be continued......)
