Chapter 79: Agree

No reborn person is willing to hand over his destiny to others, and the same is true for Meng Huo.

But he understood that building a company is a huge project involving various factors such as connections, capital, market, and competition. It is not a simple thing that can be successful with comics.

Taking a stake in Phoenix gave him an opportunity. This is a mature and stable company. It gradually gains ownership through the way of investing. What else is more cost-effective than this?

But this matter was very difficult. Meng Huo did not think about reaching the sky in one fell swoop. He knew that Xu Jing would not agree, so he didn't say anything before, and planned to take a step by step and look for opportunities. Unexpectedly, Xu Jing was so scheming and saw through it from the beginning.

"I'm very pleased that you can answer me honestly." Xu Jing nodded with a serious expression: "Teacher He Xi, have I treated you badly?"

"No."

Meng Huo shook his head, Phoenix Company did take good care of him.

"Since that's the case," Xu Jing's eyes turned cold and he said, "The phoenix is ​​built by me. If you are in the spot, will you put down what you have in your hands?"

"Won't."

Meng Huo still shook his head.

"Then why do you still do this?"

Xu Jing's voice became colder, and Alice on the side was also silent. In the eyes of the two, Meng Huo's thoughts could be considered as a kindness and revenge, which was too much.

“…”

Meng Huo thought about how to explain in the best words, but he still didn't expect it and could only answer bluntly.

“I’m very grateful to Phoenix, but its business is too small,” he said. “Comics is something that can be developed in a diverse way. I hope the company can inspire more vitality and dig out more with it as the center.”

"And no one can help me achieve this unless I become Phoenix's largest shareholder."

Meng Huo has great expectations for future comics. His strategies with Phoenix Company are contradictory, Xu Jing is cautious, and "Pokemon" proves that he does not like to expand his business.

Therefore, Meng Huo can only be free and do what he wants according to his own ideas.

"Young people always have ambitions."

Xu Jing shook his head and sighed. He understood the dreams of young people because he had thought so before. As an elder, he admired Meng Huo very much, but could not recognize his approach.

"Teacher He Xi, if I hand over Phoenix Company to you for management, you will not be able to control it."

Xu Jing did not believe in Meng Huo. He had seen too many examples of failure and did not know how many heirs carefully cultivated by family companies had ruined their property. However, Meng Huo was not guided, so it was even more dangerous to allow him to gain power.

"I know..." Meng Huo understood this and nodded: "So, I don't mean to kick you off."

This sentence moved Xu Jing slightly.

“How to say it.”

The old man asked.

"What I want is strategic speech and dominance." Meng Huo looked up and looked at Xu Jing and said, "Even if I become the major shareholder, you are still the chairman of the company."

"Tell me more specifically."

Xu Jing frowned slightly, as if he had caught the point and was a little interested.

Meng Huo explained in depth that he is not able to control the company now, and he wants shares to dominate the development direction of Phoenix. For example, he wants to start animation, as long as he has enough plans and preparations, others cannot stop him.

He wants to expand Phoenix's business, and as long as it is feasible, everyone else has to listen. However, he can ignore the company's management, and he has no time to care about these. This model draws on companies with separate ownership and management rights, but Meng Huo retains strategic initiative.

After listening to it, Xu Jing looked at Meng Huo with admiration. This child is very rational, but as long as Meng Huo's shares exceed Xu Jing, he is equivalent to the boss of the company. He said this now, it is not certain what he will become in the future.

“…”

Xu Jing began to think for a long time, but he didn't want to agree, but he didn't want to make a fuss. Phoenix Company cannot do without Meng Huo. Xu Jing could not reach the conclusion, so he looked at Alice.

However, Alice just lowered her head to eat, not knowing what she was thinking, she should have helped him in the past.

"That's how..."

Xu Jing seemed to understand in his heart.

He narrowed his eyes and made a decision: "The half-year appointment has not changed."

Meng Huo nodded: "Okay."

"On the basis of the half-year agreement, I will add two more conditions. If you can meet them..." Xu Jing paused and said slowly: "Then I agree to retain the bottom line of 30% of the shares, as long as you have money, you can invest."

“What conditions?”

Meng Huo was surprised, but unexpectedly Xu Jing agreed.

"First, you promised me something in the future, just like a half-year bet." Xu Jing said that even if you don't launch a new comic, Meng Huo can still win the bet now, so Xu Jing transferred the conditions here.

"no problem."

Meng Huo agreed before, but of course he would not refuse this time.

"Second, don't draw any new comics. If you have such great ambitions, at least you have to prove that you can guide the Phoenix." Xu Jing frowned: "The development of Phoenix depends on other cartoonists. You can't rely on you alone. You have to let them draw better-selling comics," said Xu Jing.

"This is the second condition. I will ask someone to arrange specific matters. If you can ask them to launch popular comics, I will promise you what you said today."

Xu Jing's conditions are extremely strict, but this is the biggest problem facing Phoenix Company. According to the feedback from readers of "Weekly Boys" and "Weekly Girl", nearly 80% of readers are very dissatisfied with the works of other cartoonists.

Some people even asked to serialize He Xi's works separately.

If Meng Huo can improve the level of other cartoonists, Xu Jing will be willing to give it a try and hand over the future of Phoenix Company to Meng Huo.

“…”

But Meng Huo did not answer immediately.

Xu Jing looked at his thinking face and nodded in his heart. Children who can think are better than children who are impulsive.

"I don't have a son." He felt relieved and said, "If you complete this condition, even if you don't get the largest shares in the end, I can still train you as your heir."

No one is omnipotent. Xu Jing will retire sooner or later. Alice is not interested in the company. Xu Jing believes that after training, Meng Huo will be a good heir.

However, this condition is a very difficult challenge for Meng Huo. He cannot give the comics to others to draw, and there is no way to guide him when it comes to guidance.

but……

Meng Huo's inspiration flashed by, why did he need guidance? He gave those cartoonists some themes directly, which could easily attract attention in this blank world. Moreover, they could also help Meng Huo open up some special markets, allowing readers to get used to it in advance, and facilitate him to launch popular comics on this theme in the future, which can be said to be a killing of both.

"no problem."

He agreed.

"But I need to share the manuscript fee."

Meng Huo did not forget to treat He Qian.
