Chapter 554: Don't Want to Lose
On February 20, on the fifth day of the lunar month, Meng Huo and Li Qin returned to Ninghai.
After Su Hua had a very peaceful Spring Festival, the old lady could not rest anymore. After nearly two weeks of avoiding guests, many rumors of her health arose from the outside world. Those who were unaware of the Meng family also became uneasy, which forced the old lady to come out to refute the rumors. Li Qin had always missed the neighbors of Jiayuan Community, so Meng Huo came back with her.
After walking out of the ticket gate, the driver had been waiting for a long time. He took the initiative to help pick up his luggage. However, when the three of them walked out of the high-speed rail station, Meng Huo saw a familiar car. He was stunned, then turned around and said, "Mom, you go back first... I think there is something wrong..."
Li Qin looked up and saw that there was a red Porsche not far away, which seemed to be because the parking space was full, and the Porsche driver did not get off the car and drove slowly there - Li Qin was also familiar with the car, and the license plate was the same as in her memory. This was Alice's car.
"Okay." Li Qin nodded: "I'll go home first. Teacher Hua Meng said that she had dinner at her house at noon, and everyone was there. If there was no important business, you should come back early."
"I know." Meng Huo put his luggage on his car, then waved his hand and walked towards Porsche: "If anything happens, I will call you in advance."
He walked to the side of the slowly moving Porsche. A traffic policeman was staring at him from a distance, as if he was considering whether to come and warn him. Seeing that he was about to take steps, Meng Huo decisively opened the door of the secondary seat and sat down.
"Drive. If you don't drive, someone will cause trouble for you." Meng Huo said. Alice immediately increased the accelerator and drove outside the parking lot.
"I came late today. I didn't expect there would be so many cars... Is she angry if she didn't say hello to Sister Qin?"
"No, she will understand when she sees this situation." Meng Huo turned to look at Alice. The blonde woman had a clear sigh of relief on her face. He frowned slightly: "What's the matter with me? It's not time to go to work. It shouldn't be the company's business, right?"
Phoenix Company will start officially for five days, so there should be nothing wrong now.
"It's not the company's business." Alice said while driving: "But we can't say it has nothing to do with the company. Today I have two things I want to talk to you about. The first one is relatively simple. I will accompany you to Qingcheng to participate in the ribbon cutting in two days. This is your first time participating in such an event. I want to tell you about the process and what needs to be paid attention to."
"This is simple." Meng Huo nodded. Qingcheng's ribbon cutting was just a formality and there were not many things to pay attention to. He just found a place to say that he would rub it for an hour: "Where is the second one?"
"The second thing is related to the company. I'll take you to see my dad now. He will tell you." Alice suddenly remembered another thing: "By the way, the release of "air" has been very lively these days. I heard that it has exceeded the sales volume of "clannad" during the same period."
"Yes." Meng Huo nodded. "Air" was released for one week, and its sales exceeded the sales of "Clannad" for one week. Datang and Longquan have called him to announce the good news many times.
This is not surprising. Although Meng Huo personally thinks that the quality of "Clannad" is better, the evaluation criteria vary from person to person. Moreover, the influence of the two when they are released is different. As Meng Huo is recognized by more and more people, more fans will be added, and his works will be better than the other.
"The song "Blue Sky" has also become popular." Alice giggled and said, "The real lady is not willing to admit defeat. She has authorized her to publish it online for free, right?"
"Yeah." Meng Huo nodded again. After "The Poem of Birds", players who have played the game also gave very high comments on "The Sky". On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xia Chuan called him specially and asked him to release "The Sky" online for free, just like "The Poem of Birds".
Meng Huo didn't care, so "Blue Sky" became popular online. In less than half a day, Long Xue called again and asked "Summer Shadow" to be released for free... So now, these three songs have been the top three of the free new songs on the Internet, and have also made the popularity of the "air" game and the three female voice actors soar.
This is also a matter of being unintentional. Originally, the three female voice actors had a name, "Gundam Singer" has been a topic that fans are talking about until now. Now, because of the three new songs, their popularity has increased even better than that of the artists who appeared on the Spring Festival Gala. Shen Jie complained several times. In such a remote county in Qingcheng County, there are foreign journalists interviewing her all day long.
“The situation for the firm this year is very good…”
Alice smiled. Before she could go to work, the three female voice actors brought up a whirlwind. She believed that Phoenix's voice actors will create several more trends this year.
"I hope so." Meng Huo is not that optimistic. Shen Jie and the others are popular, but the practice of publishing new songs for free online has also brought hostility from many people, especially other artist companies and their stars. They cannot care about the economic value of the songs like Meng Huo.
Releasing new songs for free is a vicious competition in the eyes of these people. It is hard to say whether they will create some obstacles for Shen Jie and the others.
"Don't worry." Alice immediately knew what he was thinking, so she smiled and said, "The development of our firm is relatively high. As long as you don't stop making animations and games, others will not be able to stop us from developing."
"You are so confident." Meng Huo smiled, then leaned his head against the car window and said, "You are the one who is in charge of the office. You are an expert. Since you are not worried, I don't care." He narrowed his eyes with some nostalgia. He hadn't been sitting in this Porsche for a long time. Looking at the strange scenery flashing on the street, for some reason, Meng Huo remembered something that happened a few years ago.
"When I first took your car, I was actually a little worried..." Meng Huo laughed and said, "Will there really be something wrong with a woman driving such an expensive car? I thought so at the time, but your driving skills are very good... Looking back now, you may be able to see a person who, no matter how fast your car is, the acceleration and steering are very gentle..."
Alice was stunned, and then found that her face was slightly hot.
"If you like it, I can help you drive a car for the rest of your life..."
She thought so in her heart, of course, she didn't say it - now is not the time, and this sentence can only be shouted loudly after she and Shen Jie decide the outcome.
