Meng Huo had been concerned about the copyright of novels in comics, animations, games, and even animated movies. In fact, publishing houses and novel companies have always been looking for him to cooperate, but Meng Huo was unmoved because he knew Longteng was also interested.

The novel copyright collaborators are no better than Longteng Company. With its channels, author resources and marketing capabilities, the novel adaptations of all Meng Huo's works can be maximized, and can attract a large number of readers to read comics.

"If the adaptation of Mr. He Xi's works can be as popular as "The Legend of Wukong", perhaps people will change their views on the new thing of comics through novels."

At the end of the negotiation, Li Ming said this. He is indeed qualified to say this. Chinese people like to read novels, and Longteng novels are also a benchmark. If Meng Huo's novelization works can be successful, it will indeed allow people to re-examine comics.

However, Meng Huo did not expect so much. "The Legend of Wukong" is a very special case, and all he wanted was to expand the copyright, and he did not expect that those works could reproduce the glory of "The Legend of Wukong" after adapting novels.

It is difficult to adapt the status of comics with the help of novels, but Meng Huo is not worried at all in this regard. Compared to a few years ago, the image of comics has changed drastically in the hearts of the world.

Huaxia is rapidly accepting comics and attaching importance to comics, and can do it without the help of novels.

"Then it's decided." Meng Huo signed his name in the agreement, put down his pen, and said: "In the future, the copyright of all my works' novels will be given priority to Longteng under the same conditions, as the condition is that you must use the best resources to package it."

Li Ming nodded: "This is OK, but Teacher He Xi, do you really want us to send a novelist to help?"

Before tonight's negotiations, Longteng Company was mentally prepared to send first-line novelists. However, what surprised Li Ming was that Meng Huo actually gave up this generous condition in exchange for greater marketing support from Longteng Company.

Li Ming was happy about this. Novelists have their own independent works. It is not easy to convince first-line novelists to adapt. It is naturally best for Phoenix Company to provide original novels. Longteng only has the right to publish and sell, so he is actually not interested in adaptation.

"No need to go through so much trouble, I will set up an adaptation studio myself."

Meng Huo replied that in his opinion, it is more at ease to put the adaptation rights in his hands. Moreover, adaptation is not a creation, and his works basically have complete drafts. Borrowing novels to tell stories does not require the help of front-line novelists.

He decided to set up a small studio himself and recruit some excellent text genius adapted novel versions. He did not ask those novels to sell well, but just hoped that they could show the original style of the original work in its original style.

Li Ming had no problem with this. After the agreement was signed, the atmosphere in the private room was very festive. Meng Hu and his group shook hands with Long Teng and his group and prepared to say goodbye.

"I'll ask Teacher He Xi to act quickly after that." Li Ming said with a smile: "I can't wait to see those novels. No matter which work it is, it's good. I hope two copies can be released this year."

Meng Huo nodded: "It's okay to have two books."

He also felt that it was a little less. The novels published by Longteng Company are generally between 100,000 and 200,000. In addition to short stories like "Five Centimeters in Seconds", most comics, animations, games and other works may require several books to be published.

Meng Huo plans to launch more than three books in the second half of the year.

And while he was talking to Li Ming, on the other side, several editors surrounded Qin Ya and were persuading her to continue writing romance novels.

"Forget it..." But Qin Ya shook her head and said, "The competition is too fierce. There is no shortage of me as an author. I think comics are more suitable for me than novels."

She usually seems frivolous, but she is very calm in her heart and can see her own path clearly. Qin Ya no longer cares about money, but she cares a lot about her own value. Her value in the comics industry is obviously much higher than that.

After staying in the comic circle for a long time, Qin Ya found that comics were developing too fast, so fast that it was breathless. The new author springs up like mushrooms after a rain. If she leaves now, she will not have the chance to come back as the number one cartoonist in the future.

In fact, if Qin Ya had transformed now, instead of transforming into a cartoonist in the past few years, she might have to compete fiercely with the top five young cartoonists in Phoenix and Zhongxia Company, and the strength and popularity of these cartoonists have gradually become rich.

Qin Ya does not have such talent that transcends the times. He may lead the talent of the comic era in the next decade or decades, but Qin Ya only has five or six years. A girl cartoonist in five or six years will appear who are not inferior to Qin Ya at all.

However, Qin Ya is a pioneer and her popularity is increasing day by day. No matter how outstanding the future cartoonist is, she believes that within ten years, she will still be the king of girl comics. And twenty years later, until she put down her pen, she will still be a popular cartoonist, and her existence will have a huge impact on the entire industry.

"I want to stay at Phoenix Company." She said, "I don't want to hand over the popularity of Girl Comics to others, of course..." She glanced at Meng Huo and muttered, "Teacher He Xi was exception."

Meng Huo is a freak. He is more popular in girl comics than Qin Ya, but strictly speaking, when others talk about He Xi, they will say that he is a myth. Not many people will place him and ordinary cartoonists together to evaluate him.

Qin Ya is now recognized as the number one girl cartoonist. And compared to the novelist who lives in a quiet and independent manner, Qin Ya found that the cartoonists sitting in the studio are more in line with her preferences. Her friends at Phoenix Company are much more than Longteng Company.

Her attitude was so firm that naturally, Longteng's editors had to give up and no longer persuade them.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Qin Ya, Meng Huo and Shen Jie returned to Comic Island with Alice's Porsche. Qin Ya was already a little drowsy, but a question from Shen Jie in the car made her feel energetic.

"Meng Huo, why don't you publish your own novel?"

Shen Jie asked this: With the current financial resources and scale of Phoenix Company, it is too easy to publish novels by herself. Even if there is no physical bookstore in China like Longteng Company, as long as you rely on the channels of comics and magazines, Phoenix Company can easily publish novels.

This is not a small business. With so many works and the original works are very popular, it can be seen how big a market cake it is for Meng Huo's works to be adapted into novels. Phoenix Company can even use this to set up a new department!

Qin Ya was also very curious and looked at Meng Huo: "Yes, Teacher He Xi, why did you give them money for free?"

Meng Huo laughed: "I just want to give it to them."

"Teacher, you must be so funny." Qin Ya complained without hesitation.

"Meng Huo's brain is so good, Qin Ya..."

At this time, Alice, who was driving, spoke: "Our company has passed the most difficult stage. Now we are becoming increasingly large, but not strong, and there are more and more hostile eyes. If Phoenix wants to become a company recognized by everyone, it must now let go of some resources and make more friends.

This is the only way for the company to develop. When you are weak, you can seize all resources and climb up. However, when it is strong, this method will cause danger. Being strong but not strong, Phoenix is ​​in this stage. It is facing pressure and sight from all sides.

Compared to a few years ago, Phoenix's every move is in the spotlight. The rapid growth scale has attracted many people to be jealous and jealous, as well as many ambitions. Too many people want to cause trouble for them. If Phoenix wants to turn into a feather and become a cultural giant, it must now show iognomity and kindness.

"Don't you think our company has developed smoothly in the past two years, but in private, the company's senior management is also frightened and cautious about anything." Alice said that Phoenix has achieved today's results, and it is precisely because they realize the risks that they have taken a lot of goodwill actions in the past two years.

In fact, the situation of Phoenix Company in the past two years is very dangerous because it has developed too fast and its foundation is not stable. Once any key mistakes occur, it may no longer exist now.

Phoenix Company came over safely and smoothly, and the main reason was that it had a good image and did not create too many enemies because it developed too fast. The reason for this was that Phoenix Company made many compromises and shared its own interests with others.

The most distinctive example is that they share their comics with other animation companies. Phoenix focuses on He Xi's works, and does not restrict the copyright of other cartoonists. At the same time, it provides voice actors to other animation companies. This has made Phoenix company more friends.

In the past two years, Phoenix's comic sales have been able to compete with Zhongxia. This is because their comics are not only related to Phoenix, but also to the interests of the original animations in the entire industry. Other animation companies are tied to Phoenix, and they will actively promote Phoenix's comic magazine sales.

This is because the stronger and more popular the comic magazines of Phoenix Company, the more popular the animations produced by these companies will be.

This situation is also very distinct from Zhongxia Company. Zhongxia Company produces and sells itself, and uses the model of celebrity voice actors to deviate from the expectations of other peers. This is the essential reason why Zhongxia Company cannot get rid of Phoenix Company in any case. There are countless people behind Phoenix.

"The power of goodwill is great."

Meng Huo laughed: "Although some small companies seem insignificant, the combined strength they have is enough to compete with any big company... We are gradually standing firm now, and few people can eliminate us now."

Once Phoenix Company is destroyed, it is not just Phoenix, but the entire animation circle and many companies. This is also a very troublesome thing in the government's opinion.

But if Phoenix Company had taken the same actions as Zhongxia, it would have been a betrayal of relatives now. The malice of other people would have become more and more powerful as Phoenix becomes stronger. From media news to individuals in society, many people would not like Phoenix as they are now.

Even if the phoenix is ​​not destroyed, it will definitely be difficult now, and every step is stared at.

After hearing Meng Huo and Alice's words, Qin Ya and Shen Jie were both scared. Chen Jie frowned slightly and pondered, but Qin Ya felt a little bit of a big deal: "Isn't it so sad? Isn't Zhongxia Company living well now?"

"That's because Zhongxia is different from us." Alice replied: "Zhongxia is not a new company, it has too strong foundations."

Why is Zhongxia so righteous? Strictly speaking, it is not a new company. Zhongxia was born from Longteng, has a strong capital, a wide network of contacts, and has extremely large power. Such a company has been a overlord since its birth.

Now the media and entertainment industry are all holding positive effects on Zhongxia, mainly relying on the network of people behind Zhongxia. Those connections are destined to be authoritative, while Phoenix takes time and friends to truly stand firm.

"But their foundation is so strong that we are still caught up with us..." Meng Huo continued: "They acted for the maximum benefit. They are not worried about public opinion and social perception, but their actions still deviate from the current development status of the industry... so they are doomed to fail."

The comics are not handed over to other companies to produce, and hiring celebrities who can't afford to dub them has put a huge pressure on other animations. Many new voice actors have ruined such actions, making the current Chinese comic circle have obviously better feelings for Phoenix Company than Zhongxia.

This trend has become more and more obvious in recent years. When He Xi launched a new work, many animation companies will help. However, Zhongxia's resources are still the same, and its influence in public opinion is increasingly unable to suppress Phoenix.

“It’s really complicated to do business…”

Qin Ya scratched her head a little troubledly.

"It's not that complicated. It's actually just like a human being. The principle is very simple." Alice smiled and said, "No matter how strong a person is, it's impossible to survive alone, especially when he is still standing on the head of other people. The stronger the stronger the person, the more jealous it is. Only those with spaciousness will be respected and recognized."

It is precisely because of this that Meng Huo handed over the copyright to Long Teng. This was a good intention, indicating that they would not reach out to any place.

"Maybe we hand over the novel to Long Teng, and there will be some good variables in the future." Alice looked at Meng Huo in the rearview mirror, and Meng Huo closed her eyes slightly: "I just need them not to make trouble."

He sold his favor to Longteng, and now Longteng's interests are tied to him. If the copyright of the novels of those works can indeed bring Longteng's interests, they will not become enemies of Phoenix Company in the future, at least they cannot blatantly stand aside with Zhongxia.
