Chapter 682: The Eve of the Carnival

Meng Huo decided on the new comic, but he did not make any statement.

He once again proposed to Director Muto in Tokyo's idea of ​​returning the chessboard. Of course, the answer he received was the same as last time. Meng Huo couldn't find time, so he found someone he could trust and asked them to take the chessboard to Tokyo.

Meng Huo did not tell the Go world that he would draw Go comics, but he had decided to announce it at Carnival. Since he was going to announce it at Carnival, the chessboard could not be returned after the carnival - in the eyes of others, he would be really bribed by the chessboard, and there might be people who would never forget his new comics in the future.

Meng Huo felt at ease by returning the chessboard first and then announcing the new comic. Besides, he didn't pay so much attention to Go boards, and there was no difference between history and history. Even if he wanted a good chessboard, he could buy good things that would make him unable to find flaws even if he wanted a good chessboard.

The workmanship of modern chess boards is exquisite than that of ancient times and the shape is more beautiful. Meng Huo read some chess boards in magazines, which are no worse than what the Go world gives him. The sense of history in his hands makes him feel hot.

The chessboard was successfully sent back to Tokyo. It is said that Director Muto was very disappointed, but Meng Huo did not care about his ideas. He did not rush to buy a new chessboard because there was no need for the carnival to open, and Shen Jie was too busy to have no time to play chess with Meng Huo due to the final stage of rehearsal.

August 6th, this is the day before the carnival opens.

Manga Island is ready. Starting from the fifth, there are a lot of pedestrians on Manga Island streets. On the sixth, a larger number of tourists arrive. Looking down from the Phoenix Building, several main streets are covered with crowds.

"So many people. The order tomorrow is OK, right?"

Xu Jing also arrived today. He stood in Meng Huo's office and looked at the lively scene outside, a little worried about tomorrow's situation. There were so many people before the carnival began. Although they were just gathered on a few streets, more people arrived tomorrow, and the entire comic island might be filled with people.

"No problem, I've got people from the entire company out."

Meng Huo nodded. During the Carnival, in addition to the necessary jobs, all the employees of Phoenix Company were assigned! They had several departments, professional security companies, and even waved to many college students, which were already minimizing the risks.

"And the police will come here to help during the carnival."

There is a police station on Manga Island, and during the Carnival, the Suhua Municipal Government arranged a lot of people to come here to maintain order.

"That's good..." Xu Jing breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the crowd below with a little joy: "But I really didn't expect that the number of these tourists exceeded our expectations. It was more than twice as high as last year."

Meng Huo nodded, and he had received information before. Near Manga Island: The occupancy rate today, including some hotels on both sides and some hotels in the University Town, is close to 100%. Most tourists will arrive today, but many people are out to play and will only come to Manga Island tomorrow.

There is no special event today in Manga Island, and tourists who are coming here obviously want to experience the feeling of being a small number of people first.

"Then I'll go and see what the cartoonists are doing first. Do you want to go with me?"

Meng Huo turned around and asked, and some cartoonists from Phoenix Company had also arrived. They were one of the key points of the carnival. Whether it was the leader here or the number one cartoonist of Phoenix Company, Meng Huo had to go over and see them.

"I have seen them, so I won't go, you go!" Xu Jing shook his head. He had already met many cartoonists from Ninghai when he came, so he didn't want to see him at this time: "I just happened to see the situation of the carnival."

Xu Jing wanted to check the various situations of the carnival in Meng Huo's office. He was a little worried about an accident in such a grand event.

The cartoonists are currently staying in the reception room of the editorial department of Phoenix Building. These people are the core cartoonists of Phoenix Company. Unlike the Ninghai family in the past, the cartoonists who come here now live in many places.

Phoenix Company has developed rapidly in recent years, the number of cartoonists has increased significantly, and its management methods have also changed. Although most cartoonists have moved to Ninghai, Tokyo and Su Hua, a few people still live in other cities.

Nowadays, the comics who gather on Comic Island are excellent professional comics, and they are going to hold a signing party during the carnival.

The Carnival on Manga Island was a great success last year. After discussion, Phoenix Company turned the "Sales Signing" into a standard project for carnivals every year in the future. The Carnival brings a large number of comic fans, which is also the best time for cartoonists to hold a signing.

Similarly, during the carnival that lasted for several days, the signing event was also a very eye-catching event. Meng Huo met these cartoonists in the editorial department, and several of his assistants were also present.

"Will Teacher He Xi participate in the signing meeting?"

After greetings, a cartoonist asked.

"No." Meng Huo shook his head and replied: "This is your opportunity."

After he finished speaking, Qin Ya, who was chatting with several female cartoonists, followed and said with a smile: "The teacher does not participate in any fixed projects. He wants to participate, but he is pulled by people in the company and said he doesn't want it."

Tomato was curious: "Don't participate in a fixed project? Why?"

“To make the carnival more successful…”

Meng Huo explained with a wry smile that, logically speaking, he was the biggest selling point of the Carnival, and the outside world has always wanted to know what activities he participated in this year. However, because he noticed the increase in the number of tourists in advance, Phoenix Company decided not to allow him to participate in any fixed projects after full discussion.

No matter what project you participate in, He Xi's appearance will bring a risk of the number of people. If the entry personnel are restricted, it will lead to ticket hype and competition. Some tourists who worked hard to come to Manga Island will be very disappointed if they failed to see him.

For this reason, Phoenix Company came up with a cunning idea...

"Random cameo?"

Many cartoonists are confused when they hear this idea.

"Yes, it's just a random guest appearance..." Meng Huo nodded. He had to hold two meetings with readers every day during the carnival, but the stage was not fixed, which means that where he appeared depends entirely on the luck of the tourists.

In this way, it can not only arouse the fun of readers participating in the event, but also use the mechanism of "He Xi" to adjust the abortion of comics island.

During the carnival, there were many projects on Comic Island, including official signing parties, voice actor performances, handshake meetings, live dialogues, etc.... There are also cosplay competitions organized by merchants, peripheral sales, tasting competitions, amusement park activities, etc....

There are dozens of activities held every day, and you can play anywhere, and it is impossible for a person to play them all.

"So, the teacher is not responsible for the announcement of the new game?"

Tomato asked in surprise that there were many curiosities about He Xi in this carnival, such as new comics, new animations, and new games, which attracted countless media attention. Among these three things, the new comics caught their appetite, but He Xi has never been sure, so no one knows whether the answer will be given at the carnival.

The new animation is the successor after the completion of "The Girl of Light". However, many media speculated that this animation should have to wait for another month to announce, so it is also very unstable. The only exception is the new game. The news about this game has been confirmed, and many people are staring at its news in a mute manner.

"The new game will be announced tomorrow, but not me."

Meng Huo laughed and said that the game was announced by He Qian, and he might not necessarily appear. In fact, whether this thing is announced or not is the same. Meng Huo appeared much more times in the carnival than last year, and it is inevitable that he would also talk about the game.

"The official carnival flow chart will be released later, and you will understand it after reading it."

Meng Huo didn't want to talk about his work at Carnival anymore. The reason why cartoonists are so strange is that Manga Island only disclosed some of the activities that attracted attention, most of which were commercial street activities and some voice actors' performances.

The specific process will be announced today, including Meng Huo's random guest appearance.

Seeing that the cartoonists were in normal condition, he said goodbye and left. Shortly after he left, Phoenix Company indeed released the specific flow charts of the carnival on its official website, forum and on various places in the Manga Island.

There are two highlights in this flow chart. One is that the celebration of the carnival will not be interrupted. The official Phoenix Pavilion and the Cartoonist Signing Conference almost lasted the entire carnival. The second highlight is that He Xi had seven meetings during the carnival, but the seven meetings were all secrets.

"Damn!"

When many media saw this news, they swear words on the spot. There were so many meetings, but no one was leaked. How did the reporters find He Xi? There are more than a dozen occasions held at the same time every day. Could it be that if you want to interview He Xi, you have to rely on luck!?

Moreover, Phoenix Company has obviously increased the attractiveness of He Xi's meeting to the extreme. Each event has different themes to attract fans and will also give gifts from tourists present. Even the reporters are itchy when they see it.

What’s even more scammed is that “If you are present in all seven activities by Teacher He Xi, you will get a free four-person play for next year’s Comic Island Carnival!”

The free tour of next year's carnival, from round trip fees to various tickets, accommodation and food, Phoenix Company reimburses everything. This is not very attractive to the rich, but it is simply a super gift to most tourists.

Four people are enough for the whole family to come and play.

"What a generous Phoenix Company, oh, no... What a cunning Phoenix Company!"
