On Sunday, Alice just woke up and saw a text message appearing on her phone.

The text message was sent by Xu Jing's secretary. The content was very simple, which means that it would notify all the senior managers who attended the video conference yesterday, so that they could enjoy the holidays without considering the matter of "Detective Sherlock" - all the business of Phoenix Company will be the same.

"What does this mean!"

Alice was stunned for a moment. Of course she understood the meaning of the text message, but what she didn't understand was what the company sent the text message. She quickly called her home and asked what Xu Jing was doing. Could it be that Phoenix Company ignored the matter of "Detective Sherlock"?

"It's literal." Xu Jing calmly replied on the phone: "Yesterday, Dong Ding and Meng Huo had a video conversation, and then Meng Huo decided not to hinder the animation of "Detective Sherlock".

"Impossible! How could he make such a ridiculous decision!" Alice didn't believe it and hurriedly set off to walk towards the Phoenix Building. On the way, she still kept talking to Xu Jing: "Isn't Dong Ding the president of Zhongxia Company? How could he contact Meng Huo? Do you know what they talked about?"

Xu Jing smiled and said, "Of course I know that the video address Dong Ding got from me has a wide range of conversations, including the entire comics industry - of course, the most important thing is the new competition model of the two companies, which is the main reason why Meng Huo changed his mind."

"New competition model?"

"Yes, since Dong Ding took office, they have had this tacit understanding... Phoenix Company and Zhongxia Company have maintained a competitive relationship for many years, but in the past period of time, we have had a very unhappy competition model that pulls each other back." Xu Jing said with some emotion: "After their conversation yesterday, this model is gone forever. Our future competition will be based on the concept cornerstone of 'not hindering the rise of the comics industry'."

It is very abstract. But the meaning is very simple. Nowadays, China Comics is booming, but only the two companies, Phoenix and Zhongxia, are the leaders. Their actions guide the entire comics industry. In the past, the two companies fought openly and secretly, pulling each other back. This competition method seriously wastes resources, which has slowed down the speed of the comics industry, which could have developed better.

Dong Ding hopes to establish a new type of competitive relationship, and competition will inevitably lead to conflicts. However, the two companies will try their best to avoid the practice of "pulling their legs" and "damaging others for self-interest" to reduce the losses of both parties to the low point, and seek common development with an open and upright model, even helping each other.

"I think this is a good thing. If we compete in ways of pulling our back legs and conspiracy, it will be difficult for us to win Zhongxia." Xu Jing smiled and said, "And if we use legitimate means, I believe it will be of great benefit to our long-term and stable development... I think it is worth it to exchange "Sherlock" for this benefit."

Phoenix Company has been at a disadvantage in "Detective Sherlock". Even if it goes to block it, it will be difficult to change the overall situation. Since this is the case, it is better to let it go in exchange for a long-term fair and stable situation.

Alice was a little unhappy. After hearing this, she understood in her heart: Xu Jing said that long-term fairness is more important than short-term interests, and this concept should be in line with the psychology of most people in Phoenix Company. There is a fanatical belief within Phoenix Company. Everyone thinks that as long as they don’t use small tricks, they will win every battle if they have no secrets.

This is not wrong, but Alice also agrees. But she understands Meng Huo better. She understands that he will never be afraid of any small means. This fairness can lure other people, but it is not something that can change Meng Huo's ideas.

"Stop making excuses, tell me the real reason!" Alice said impatiently: "Meng Huo is not afraid of challenges. There are other reasons why he changes his mind."

“…”

There was a silence across the microphone. After a long time, Xu Jing's sigh came: "Others believe it, but you don't believe it. Why do you have to treat that boy..."

"dad!"

Alice screamed coldly.

Xu Jing stopped immediately, and he said dimly: "Just as you have done, fairness is not the reason, and Meng Huo has also questioned the appearance of "Detective Sherlock" that there is no trace of fairness... If you change your mind for a false word, that boy Meng Huo is too naive."

"Sherock Detective" seems to have snatched the popularity of "Detective Conan", but on the other hand, this can be said to be helping... With the popularity of "Detective Conan", "Sherock Detective" will develop better, and more popular animations are a good thing for the entire Chinese animation industry... And Dong Ding means that they rely on this approach to accelerate development, not to snatch it - if "Detective Conan" is completed and there is no replacement work, then its popularity will be wasted in half a year."

"And he also made a promise that if we don't hinder Detective Sherlock, then half a year later, as long as we want - Detective Sherlock can also be suspended and make way for Detective Conan."

Alice was shocked, and Dong Ding actually made such a promise! Then he is not a bad guy! If it was "Detective Sherlock" now, it would steal the popularity of "Detective Conan". Then half a year later, the animation of "Detective Sherlock" will also cultivate a group of new animation audiences. If it is suspended and "Detective Conan" is released again, the matter will turn around.

"In half a year, we will have greater benefits?" Alice was shocked. Isn't this a dowry for "Detective Conan"?

"No wonder Meng Huo agreed..."

Alice was relieved. Dong Ding and Meng Huo were having a video conference, and there would definitely be videos. As long as he said this, he would not regret it. This temptation is indeed very strong. For the sake of "Detective Conan" half a year later, it doesn't matter if it's a little rampant.

“The right decision…”

Just as Alice was relaxing, Xu Jing raised her heart with another sentence.

"But Meng Huo refused."

Xu Jing said this, Alice almost hit the wall.

"Rejected!? He actually refused!"

She was so dizzy that she refused that she would not have to stop broadcasting in half a year, and Phoenix Company did not interfere with it - what happened? No matter how, no one would be foolish, right?

"Why!"

"What is he thinking!"

However, Xu Jing did not answer this question immediately, but laughed happily: "Meng Huo and Dong Ding talked for a whole four hours. Actually, I don't know how to talk, but they seemed to have a close eye - and they reached a verbal agreement. If you want to know what this agreement is, go to Meng Huo to ask yourself."

Alice frowned: "Can't you tell me?"

Xu Jing refused: "This matter is very important. Now I only know about it, Meng Huo and Dong Ding, and I have no right to tell you."

After he said that, he hung up the phone. Alice stayed at the phone for a long time, but then couldn't help but feel confused and continued to walk towards Meng Huo's apartment. She rang the doorbell without thinking too much. After waiting for a while, she saw Meng Huo opening the door in her pajamas-"Oh no, I forgot again."

Alice regretted it a little. She woke Meng Huo up to her dream the day before yesterday, but she didn't pay attention today: Meng Huo talked with Dong Ding for four hours yesterday, obviously postponed the work of contacting her assistants to draw comics. Today, he naturally had to go to bed and get up late.

But when she got up, Meng Huo still let her come in like last time. He went to wash first, while Alice found a few bread and milk in the refrigerator and heated them. When Meng Huo finished washing and came out without any fatigue, she had already placed her breakfast.

"What's wrong with me again today?"

Meng Huo asked while eating bread.

"Did you and Dong Ding meet yesterday?"

Alice opens up the topic.

"Well, that person is pretty good, not bad." Meng Huo smiled: "I thought this kind of businessman was profit-oriented, but I didn't expect that he was quite human... and he was not arrogant. You must not imagine that he put down his figure at me when he first talked to him."

Put down your figure? - Alice really can't imagine that scene.

"Why did Dong Ding put down his figure and talk to you?"

"Because he feels confident in my work." Thinking of this, Meng Huo felt a little complicated. During his conversation with Dong Ding yesterday, he found that Dong Ding showed no sign of underestimating him. He even suggested that even if "Detective Sherlock" completely snatched away the audience of "Detective Conan", Phoenix Company would not fall into a desperate situation, and it only takes time to make up for it.

This is true. If "Sherlock Detective" is really that powerful, Meng Huo could consider taking out the awesome works of "One Piece" and "Death" and "Dragon" to hang them out. These are all great killing weapons. Meng Huo doesn't believe that anyone in this world can resist it.

However, he really didn't expect that an enemy would believe him so much - it was strange that the president of Zhongxia Company had higher confidence in He Xi than anyone else. This made Meng Huo feel wary of: he was not afraid of others underestimating him, but afraid that others would always regard you as a ss too high, and then he deliberately tried to find a way to deal with it.

However, this sense of vigilance is gone now. After a long time of conversation, Meng has gained great benefits that he had never imagined.

"My dad said you discussed an agreement with Dong Ding, what agreement?" Alice asked.

Meng Huo was stunned, then shook his head: "Your father's mouth is really not firm. Dong Ding and I have found a consensus, but it is more like a possibility than an agreement."

"Possibility? What possibilities"

"..." Meng Huo smiled lightly: "You will know in three years."

He didn't want to reveal this matter, even Alice would not do it - Phoenix and Zhongxia Company will have a three-year secret contract competition. In three years, if a company can gain an absolute advantage in all major businesses such as comics, animations, voice actors, movies, and peripherals, there is no need for another company to exist.

Zhongxia Company can use this secret agreement to annex Phoenix and vice versa.

In fact, if Zhongxia cannot defeat Phoenix Company within three years, the existing shareholders will retreat - it is possible that it will be swallowed up by Phoenix Company. (To be continued, please search Piaotiansi, the novel is better, updated and faster!
