On the other hand, when the clerk of the game store returned to the game store, a man was already staring at the sign in a daze at the entrance of the store.

He walked over with joy: "Master, you are back!"

"Yeah." The man turned around and looked at the clerk, then proudly looked at the signboard, and said, "Lüshi Chunqiu, what a good name. I didn't expect that I could still take out such a poetic and picturesque store name when I graduated from junior high school. I have to admire myself!"

He is the manager of this game store, the one Lu Fei who got rich in Ninghai by selling text adventure games. The successful reselling of "Clannad" a while ago allowed Lu Fei to accumulate enough wealth. After learning through an acquaintance that the Phoenix Company in Suhua City was opening up, he didn't think much about it and sent his family to start a business.

Although the two apprentices and wives did not agree with his idea at the beginning, when they came to the scene, they unanimously believed that the development prospects here were good. Moreover, these dealers were originally rural people who went to Ninghai to survive. They did not have a strong sense of belonging to Ninghai, and they went anywhere for life. This time they moved to Su Hua to settle down.

"Master, how did you discuss with the people from Phoenix Company just now?"

The clerk’s apprentice Liu Qiang was not interested in Lu Fei’s showing off, and what he wanted to know more was the business problems of the game store.

They were the first entrepreneurs to come to Suhua. In addition to the discount on store rent, Phoenix Company is also willing to provide them with the best products, including various categories of rare goods, collector's editions and other things, etc. Comic Island will be built into the core area of ​​Phoenix Company's future comic industry, with the rarest and complete comic peripheral products in China, and entrepreneurs like Lu Fei and others are the first lucky ones to be authorized.

Lu Fei and other merchants have been discussing with Phoenix for several days in a row. Now they have basically completed the negotiations.

"It's roughly no problem." He answered his apprentice in a relaxed tone: "But Phoenix has strict review of product types. We may only have priority for some game products in the future..."

"Game?" Liu Qiang was disappointed: "Master. I said not to open a game store anymore. There are not many of these things!"

Phoenix Company is a comic company, and it would be fortunate that one game can be launched every year. Liu Qiang feels that the game products have no prospects, so he would have known how good it would be to open a comic shop if he had known.

"Games are the only ones that make money, and game products are not only games, but also some peripherals and figures are also considered in this category, just like Gundam models and so on. In the future, our store will get more supply than other stores." Lu Fei said disapprovingly: "The competition in comic stores is fierce, and that kind of store has no future."

He took the lead in walking into the store and said, "You took the customers to He Xizhi's house just now?"

"Yeah." Liu Qiang nodded and followed behind: "That dessert shop is much more lively than ours. The mother and daughter are not afraid of starting a business here. It's so amazing. Their courage is no smaller than that of us men."

"It would be strange if they were afraid if they had group support behind them!"

Lu Fei greeted another apprentice in the store and said.

Liu Qiang stopped and was a little surprised: "Group? What group?"

"Teacher He Xi's fan group... Many of the stores that are investing here now have group support behind them. The mother and daughter belong to the Big Sister Alliance, which has the largest number of fans. The Big Sister Alliance now has five or six stores open here. And their boss also works in Phoenix Company. If anyone messes with the mother and daughter, there will be a group of people coming out to preside over justice."

Lu Fei found a chair and sat down, saying, "Compared to them, we, those of us who are powerless, are the hardest."

Liu Qiang was dumbfounded: "Why did the fan group open a store, and it has such great ability?"

The fan group actually plays economics, and they don’t look like fans no matter how they look like they are!

"I told you that Teacher He Xi should not speculate on common sense. Some of his fans have long developed into interest groups." Lu Fei replied: "Just like this big sister alliance, this group has a stable management, and most of the core members are white-collar workers and rich girls, so there will naturally be some business exploration."

"It is said that their development opportunity was a few years ago, and it was also the mother and daughter. Their store encountered financial difficulties, and then the big sister alliance needed a gathering place. So some members took out money to support them and changed the store name to Hexizhi Home... Unexpectedly, Hexizhi Home is developing better and better, and gradually became Hexi's fan gathering place, and even opened branches in several big cities in Yanjing."

"The core members of the Big Sisters Alliance have also discovered business opportunities. They have made many attempts in the past few years. The rich women formed a small organization called Big Sisters Economic Alliance. The economic alliance has taken charge of all the resources and financial resources of the fan club, and has actually developed into a capital consortium."

Lu Fei continued: "The success of the Big Sister Alliance will certainly make other groups rush to imitate. At the last celebration of He Xi, Teacher He Xi demonstrated the possibility of getting rich for his readers. At the celebration at that time, almost every group participating in the sale made money... Now the opening of Manga Island naturally attracted some people."

However, the comic island attracts not many people. After all, this time it is a real-life business. There are at least tens of thousands of capital in the early stage, and there are not many groups that can provide these capital. What’s more important is that this kind of thing tests the cohesion of the fan club and the leadership of the leaders. Even if there are local tyrants, most groups will end up in vain due to the distribution of interests and other reasons.

There are only a handful of groups that can achieve the level of Big Sister Alliance.

Of course, Liu Qiang didn't know these things, he was already scared by the word group: "Then master, if this continues, won't this island be divided into many economic alliances in the future?"

Lu Fei nodded: "Of course."

This is an obvious thing. Fans seized this opportunity. If comic island can develop, these groups will make a lot of money. At that time, several confrontational fan alliances will definitely be born. Even the future fan group cannot be said to be a fan group, but a real businessman united.

"We are not very passive in this way?" Liu Qiang was startled: "Master, let's find a group to join!"

"No need." Lu Fei shook his head and smiled: "It's too late now. They don't accept newcomers so easily. And now there are some businesses like us. Everyone is like Mingjing. If there are risks, we will unite sooner or later... But there are no conflicts now. With such a few customers, it is the key to find a way to support the development of Manga Island."

"You just said that He Xizhi's house has many guests?"

He asked.

"Yes, it's almost full." Liu Qiang nodded.

"Okay, we have attracted a lot of customers for it. It's almost time to give us kickbacks." Lu Fei nodded, then took out his cell phone to dial the phone.

The female shop owner who was resting in He Xizhi's house received the call.

"Ah? I know the kickback, would it be better to be a little late?" She replied unhappily: "If you have a folding roll of two yuan, you will have to give you one yuan to rebate. Our business pressure here is also very high."

"Come on, your daughter is smart and capable, and no matter how stressed she is, she is better than us." Lu Fei said: "We can only rent comics here now, and we can only get some water and electricity bills every day. Your rebate is equivalent to one-fifth of our income, so you can understand it!"

"Okay OK, then you come and check out tomorrow..."

The female shop owner frowned and hung up the phone.

"Mom, are you here to urge money again?" Ling Shuang walked up to her and asked.

"Well...there are too few customers here." The female shop owner smiled and said, "But Teacher He Xi has arrived today. It will probably not take long before people will gradually hide."

"I think there are quite a lot of people now." Ling Shuang said with a pout, "If those chain stores don't open the door and give us all the people, we will be full all day."

The number of college students attracted by Manga Island is quite large, with thousands of people coming every day, but once diluted by several streets and many chain stores, it looks empty.

"But have you ever thought that if those chain stores are not open, no one will come." The female store owner reached out and pinched her daughter's face and smiled. The current abortion on Manga Island is attracted by well-known merchants and stores. If these merchants are gone, few people are willing to come and play.

"But I don't like them." Ling Shuang escaped from her mother's clutches and rubbed her face and said, "I feel that those stores look down on us and brother He Xi. The owner of the shoe store next door is not allowed to read comics inside, saying that it is hindering the operation, but there are only a few customers at all, so how can it hinder the operation!"

The female shop owner's smile was fragile, and Ling Shuang was right, which was also a strange thing to her. Although there were many well-known merchants on the Manga Island, these merchants clearly showed their dissatisfaction with this place. Manga Island is a pilot area for comic industrialization designated by the Suhua government. The core here is Phoenix Company, but the merchants seem to be unhappy to live under it.

Why do these merchants come here to set up branches, and why do they still feel dissatisfied after setting them up?

"Teacher He Xi will be very difficult..."

The female shop owner couldn't help thinking that she felt that Phoenix would definitely have conflicts with these merchants, and she really didn't know what kind of problems would arise. However, it was not her turn to worry about these things. Moreover, if those merchants evacuate, the flow of people may be reduced in a short time, but in the long run, their competitors will be reduced.
