Meng Huo soon noticed the abnormality in the commercial street.

A few days before he came to Suhua City, he was busy meeting with all kinds of "big people". Of course, he should not miss the merchants on these streets of Manga Island. Meng Huo originally wanted to get along well with them, but he found that the auras of these merchants were even better than those of the Suhua City Government officials. After being invited several times, he ignored him.

"Although I never thought I could instruct them, isn't this a little too cold?"

Meng Huo was a little unhappy. He invited those merchants kindly and rudely to respond. These people were too arrogant, right? Not to mention helping to develop this island, they were simply time bombs, and it would be nice not to drag Phoenix Company down.

He also asked someone to investigate the situation. It turned out that although these chain stores opened new stores on Manga Island, their reasons were all requested by the headquarters. Although the headquarters of these companies required to establish new stores on Manga Island, the reasons did not fully communicate with the employees, which led to the dissatisfaction of the shop managers coming to the island.

In fact, the logic is very simple. If you work hard to get to the manager level and finally get the qualification to open a new store, just when you are happy, you will be very upset as the headquarters commands and arrive at the address. It turns out to be a small island with no crowds, then you will definitely be very upset.

"This is intentional..."

Meng Huo thought distressedly that he was sure that it was intentional by the Meng family. They could not notice such a big loophole. No matter whether it was to test him or something, Meng Huo felt that the Meng family was really useless. He didn't ask them to do this. It would be better to not do it from the beginning when he created a conflict like now. The charm of these chain stores is so great? Look at the current traffic has not increased much!

Moreover, it is easy to ask God to send him to God. Now these shops have been settled. Even if you want them to leave, it is not easy.

"I'm so troublesome!"

Meng Huo rubbed his eyebrows and had some headaches. At this time, Alice knocked on the door and walked in.

"My negotiations with Haiou Animation Company are almost in place. Their offer is 4 million. Except for a few founders, other employees will be included in our company."

Alice put a report on Meng Huo's table. Haiou Animation was the animation company she had mentioned before that she wanted to acquire. The company was on the verge of bankruptcy, and it would be good if someone was willing to accept it. But several founders still wanted to sell it for a good price. Four million was the result of the two parties' negotiations for several days.

“Didn’t their debt be liquidated?”

Meng Huo asked as he flipped through the report.

"Yes, the total debt is one million and a half million. We have to repay the debts after we buy them, which is equivalent to the purchase price of five million and a half million." Alice nodded and replied, "But I have seen their animation works, and the artists' abilities are pretty good, and the price is not expensive."

The report clearly stated the situation of the Seagull animation. Meng Huo looked through a few pages and felt that there was no problem.

"Okay. We want to pursue speed, so we will follow this purchase price." He put down the report. He was about to continue speaking when he suddenly heard another knock at the door. A secretary came in and said, "The general manager, Universal Cinema and Sogo Restaurant, and several persons in charge of Corning Clothing want to see you."

Meng Huo's position here is the general manager. Although the core management of Phoenix Company has come to Manhua Island, which has already developed towards its actual headquarters, until Manhua Island truly develops and grows, Phoenix Company will not announce personnel adaptations to the outside world. The chairman is still in Ninghai, and Su Hua's here is just a branch.

“Universal Cinema and Sogo Restaurant?”

When Meng Huo heard the secretary's words, he was stunned and then was a little happy. The guys finally accepted the invitation. He took Alice to the conference room, where five or six men and six men and women sat in the conference room, but when Meng Huo greeted them, he sensitively found that these people disagreed with him.

"I am Zhang De, the head of Universal Cinema, and Teacher He Xi. I will tell you bluntly. I hope you can take over our cinema."

Shortly after sitting down, a middle-aged man said in a surprising way.

Meng Huo was stunned. What was going on: "What did you say to take over?"

"Take over is to accept the facilities and territory of the theater after we left..." The man said coldly: "We can't continue here, but the theater rental contract has been agreed to have ten years. I hope Phoenix Company can agree to take over these contracts so that our company can escape unscathed."

"Are you leaving Manga Island?" Meng Huo frowned slightly.

"Yes, how can I not leave? There are too few customers here and there is no potential for development at all." The man nodded and said, "Especially our theater, where the attendance rate has been less than one-twentieth in the few months of opening. Movies and consumer goods are different. In the similar environment, the audience pursues low ticket prices. There are several low-priced cinemas in the university town, and we have no hope at all."

He paused and added: "So we're ready to give up here."

"Wait!" Alice interrupted coldly, "What does giving up here have to do with our company? Why do we need to take over?"

"There are no one else except you." The man said coldly, "We are all doing business at a loss, and only you really want to develop here. Don't say you don't know, you must have some means to pull us over. Of course you have to bear this responsibility. The current situation is that we can't see the hope of the development of Manga Island. The headquarters has agreed to let us leave. I hope you can help me reduce my losses."

"Are you?"

Meng Huo looked at the other people.

"this……"

"Let's wait and see for the time being."

Several other persons in charge answered, but judging from their expressions, these people seemed to have the idea of ​​leaving.

———

Su Hua, in an office, a middle-aged woman was watering a pot of flowers.

"Universal Cinema wants to leave Manga Island, and the land belongs to us. My request is to ask them to find another company to take over." She said while watering the flowers: "Other companies on Manga Island will not expand anymore, so Universal Cinema can only go to Phoenix Company. Guess how the young master stops them?"

After watering the flowers, she turned around and smiled at the two young men and women sitting on the sofa and said, "He cannot agree. As long as Universal Cinema leaves, other companies will set off a wave of departure when they see this situation... The resources we pulled over may disappear in an instant. As the person in charge of Phoenix Company, the young master definitely does not want to lose these chain stores."

On the sofa, the young man suddenly sneered: "Auntie, did you do it on purpose? If you say to the manager of Universal Cinema, how could this happen, right?"

"Actually, there is no such trouble." The young woman said, "As long as you tell the story about the young master, those companies will not be left alone... Aunt Liu, you took those companies over. You told the old lady that it was for the young master's good, but now you tempted them to leave. Why do I feel like you are deliberately targeting the young master?"

The middle-aged woman put down the sprinkler kettle and said with a smile.

"It was said by the old lady that he did not reveal his news, and... I didn't target the young master, I was just a little... a little curious."

"Curious?" the young man frowned: "If the old lady knew about this, wouldn't you be afraid that she would get angry?"

"Scared, of course!"

The woman nodded, then shook her head and said, "But you underestimate the old lady too much. Can I hide what I did? She didn't come out to stop her, but she agreed to this approach... The young master is very important to us, but it is not particularly critical to those in the outer circle. People in the outer circle cannot make any big waves, but it is best if they can calm down as soon as possible."

Any capital group in China has core groups within and outside the circle, and the same is true for the Meng family. In the sub-core group outside the core group, many people are ambitious to separate from the Meng family. But is the separation really appropriate? Only the most core people know that in today's China, several major capital groups represent the government, and they monopolize all walks of life and take all the distribution of wealth into their hands.

Once a powerful group splits, it will be immediately sniped and divided by other groups and will never reappear. If the Meng family splits, the forces of the Meng family will have to fight each other, join other groups or live in vain. Although power becomes more free from a personal perspective, its status plummets.

If the Meng family's coat is covered with it and the group has not dispersed, then these people are all the masters of the Chinese economy.

"The old lady believes in the young master's talent. Of course, we are here. It doesn't matter whether he has talent or not..." The woman paused and said, "But if he has the ability to show it a little, assuming he can control the chain stores on Comic Island, or develop Comic Island, this achievement can at least eliminate some people's ambitions."

"The economy is the battlefield. Our Meng family has developed to this day because they will strangle them to death when the risks are still small." The woman's eyes flashed and she said, "If the young master had no strength, we just wanted to clean the group as soon as possible, but in this way, he would have to turn into a vase..."

Before she could finish speaking, suddenly, a knock on the door sounded.

"Come in." The woman turned her head and looked at the secretary who was walking in from outside: "What's wrong?"

"Chairman..." the secretary said with respect, "Just just now, news came from Comic Island that Phoenix Company agreed to accept the venues and facilities of Universal Cinema. Not only that..." He paused and said, "Teacher He Xi also told others that they were welcome to leave Comic Island."

The woman was stunned.
