Chapter 105 The Burning Shana
Since October, the advertisement of "Kong Meng Huazhang" that has been broadcasted on CCTV during non-primary time has forced Meng Zhe to interrupt the work of painting "Fairy Sword" many times to meet those who are polite and try to obtain clothing distribution agency rights in various regions because they have seen TV commercials.
It is also for this reason that on the afternoon when Guan Yuluo said that he would have a free meal at Meng Zhe's house in the future, Meng Zhe met a little guest who was half-cooked.
To be precise, the real guest should be the middle-aged man in the northeast who was in his forties who tried to sign the general agency of Kong Menghuazhang's clothing in the whole northeast. Meng Zhe felt that the only one who had known him was just a nine-year-old girl who came with this middle-aged man in Northeast China.
When she saw Meng Zhe, the little girl who had just turned nine widened her eyes in surprise: "Huh? Brother Meng Zhe, why are you here?
Meng Zhe thought about it very carefully, and then remembered that the Loli girl named Meng Zhe's brother was the younger sister of the little sisters he met on the plane when he returned to China last time - Ye Qi.
So, Meng Zhe replied with a smile, "Ha ha, is it Xiao Qiqi? This is my home, so I'm here."
After listening to Meng Zhe's words, Ye Qi immediately became excited. She ran to Meng Zhe's side and took Meng Zhe's hand and raised her head and said, "Ah... Brother Meng Zhe, do you know Meng Jiji? Dad is coming to talk about business with Mengji guitar. Qiqi begged his father for a long time, and then his father promised to bring Qiqi here... I really like the comics drawn by Mengji guitar. It turns out that they still want to contribute, but the pictures drawn are so ugly..."
Ye Qi's question made Meng Zhe pinch the tip of his nose with some tears and laughter - child, the Meng Jiji you are looking for is in front of you. You also asked me if you know Meng Jiji. Isn't this riding a donkey to find a horse?
So, Meng Zhe teased Ye Qi who looked up at him in a joking tone and said, "Is Xiao Qiqi looking for Meng Jiji? Ha ha, you asked me this question as the right person, because I grew up watching Meng Jiji.
"Wow--Brother Meng Zhe, you are so happy!" Meng Zhe's seemingly serious expression made Ye Qi take what he said as the truth, so the little girl showed an expression of envy: "You must be very happy to see Meng Ji's guitar comics and be taken care of by Meng Ji's guitar since you were a child! By the way, your surname is Meng, so Mengji's guitar must be your uncle, right?
Shrimp?!
Meng Jiji is my uncle?!
Meng Zhe suddenly felt that the teasing words just now seemed to have circled him in, so he could only explain in a slightly depressed tone: "Xiao Qiqi, in fact, my brother and I... are Meng Jiji."
In order to prove that he was Meng Jiji, Meng Zhe picked up Ye Qi's right hand and turned over the palm of his hand and neatly wrote the word "Zhe" in the palm of the little girl's hand.
"If the two words Jiji are combined, just read Zhe." Meng Zhe said so.
"Lay... It's very itchy, Brother Meng Zhe." Little girl Ye Qi giggled with her fingers. She didn't seem to listen to Meng Zhe's words.
So Meng Zhe helplessly let go of the little girl's hand and turned around to try to find a pen and paper to continue to explain the problem. The little girl Ye Qi, who giggled happily, said again at this time, "Brother Meng Zhe, you are lying again. Sister, she said that Meng Jiji should be worse than our father. Not too old."
Meng Zhe looked sideways at Ye Qi's father, who looked sideways, although his suit was straight, his temples had been slightly stained with frost white, and his waist was slightly bowed... Tears streaming down his face.
Even before rebirth, we are just a strange uncle in our thirties. How can we be so old?
At this time, Ye Qi's father finally opened his mouth. After showing an apologetic smile to Meng Zhe, he said, "That time on the plane, my two daughters were taken care of!"
After saying that, Ye Qi's father took out another gift box and handed the gift box to Meng Zhe and said, "I read Zhiyin magazine that Jiji often stay up late until very late, so when I came, I went to buy two catties of our Northeast specialty Korean ginseng."
What the hell?
Two or two kilograms of Korean ginseng?!
Isn't this gift... a little too expensive?
It's just that Meng Zhe just wanted to refuse, but Ye Qi's father had already explained before him: "Jiji, don't refuse anything. This thing is always cheap for us. It's all artificially planted ginseng! It doesn't have a big effect, but it's good for your health to make porridge, soup or simply stir-fry meat.
After saying that, Ye Qi's father, who was afraid that Meng Zhe would refuse, simply stuffed the gift box in his hand directly into Meng Zhe's arms, and then showed a simple smile.
"Dad, aren't you going to give these ginseng to Meng Jiji?" Ye Qi looked up at Meng Zhe first, and then her father, but her eyes finally fell on Meng Zhe's face. She said to Meng Zhe in a probing tone, "Brother Meng Zhe, are you really... really Meng Jiji?"
Meng Zhe, holding two catties of Korean ginseng, nodded solemnly, and Ye Qi made a new voice with a high decibel after blinking continuously: "Wow-!!!"
Then, it was the little Loli of the star-chasing family who was so excited that she was about to faint. She looked up at Meng Zhe, a talented young cartoonist of the idol school, and asked where the interesting scene. If it hadn't been for Ye Qi's father, she would have been afraid that her daughter would be too pestering Meng Zhe to annoy Meng Zhe, and then lead to the failure of coming to negotiate agency or something, so she called Ye Qi back to him with a tiger's face. I'm afraid Meng Zhe couldn't get away for a while.
After that, it was time to enter the business negotiation. Meng Zhe was not very interested in and was not good at the business negotiation of paying back the money on the spot, so he just had a meal with the father and daughter of the Ye family and went back to his studio to continue to draw his Fairy Sword.
After Meng Zhe finished drawing two drawings that satisfied him, Kong Lan, who was briskly, pushed open the door of the studio door of the studio and came in. Kong Lan's face smiled triumphantly: "Xiao Zhe, the business has been settled. I gave Mr. Ye the first-level agency of our Kong Menghua Zhang's clothing in Liaoning Province. This is the contract to be signed tomorrow. Xiao Zhe, please take a look and see if there is anything you think is wrong.
So Meng Zhe roughly browsed the contract. Most of the contract terms have already been drafted, and only two or three additional terms are additional new terms. Those clauses drawn up in advance do not need to be read more, because they have been repeatedly scrutinized before finalized, so Meng Zhe just glanced at the last added clauses.
After reading it, Meng Zhe found that the central idea of the terms in the last few days was that if Ye Qi's father could operate the market of Liaoning Province to the best performance in the three provinces of Northeast China, then he would get the general agency of the Northeast Region. In other words, if you don't manage well, you won't get the agency of this region... Meng Zhe naturally has no problem with this. Although there must be a moral bottom line for doing business, business is not charity after all, and you can't let unsuitable people make a mess of business, right?
"Sister Lan, Ye Qi's father is quite nice. I thought you would directly hand over the general agency of the whole Northeast Region to him." After indicating that there was nothing wrong with the contract, Meng Zhe said with a smile.
"Mr. Ye is really good. He happens to run a clothing factory. He can work as an OEM for our Confucius and Menghua Zhang nearby, but now it is enough to give him the first-level agency of Liaoning Province. Can you let him be the general agent of the Northeast Region? Let's talk about it later - there is now a saying in the business that it is called the three northerners. The princes and those who get Beijing and Shanghai get the world, so it's not so easy for me to let go of such an important market.
Kong Lan first affirmed Ye Qi's father's character, but then he said the reason why he did not agree to hand over the general agency to Ye Qi's father.
The so-called those who get the three norths get the princes, Meng Zhe also knows a little bit about it. In fact, this refers to the relatively low price and the competition of daily necessities for the general public - collectively referred to as the northeast, northwest and north China of the three norths. In the nearly 20 years of the late 1990s, almost all of them succeeded in the Chinese market. None of the domestic brands started from the "Sanbei" market.
As for the reason, it is probably the three markets with a vast territory and a large population, while the people's income is not high, the surname is straight, and the consumption mentality is not mature. It is suitable for those who have low prices, average quality and large demand to make a reputation with consumer goods!
So, relatively speaking, the domestic products in the original accumulation and entrepreneurial stage are just suitable for the consumer demand of these regions. More importantly, if you rush to the 'three norths', you will not encounter the coverage and impact of multinational brands, because multinational brands focus more on coastal open cities. In fact, until today, those who get the three norths become princes, and those who get Beijing and Shanghai get the world. It is still a tried and tested law of competition in the Chinese market... Although Kong Menghuazhang's clothing is designed with an avant-garde route, the price is a low-price strategy that is close to the people. Therefore, it is a laborious and thankless thing to compete in developed coastal cities and those multinational clothing brands that are taking advantage of the east wind of reform and opening up to penetrate the domestic market. In the 1990s, the Chinese people's attitude of worshiping foreign countries was strong, and the "Yanjing People in New York" can be attracted by Chinese people. In the era of the upsurge of going abroad, it is better to gain a foothold in the Sanbei market first, and then counterattack the coastal market after building up the brand.
Perhaps it was because the biggest goal was not achieved. The next day, after signing the contract, Ye Qi's father and daughter stepped on the bus back home. Meng Zhe and Kong Lan unexpectedly returned to Ye Qi's father in the northeast and invested 300,000 yuan to buy out the advertisement of Liaoning TV. Duan, and then used indiscriminate intensive advertisements comparable to the brain platinum of later generations, so that Kong Menghuazhang's advertising film was quickly known to Liaoning people.
Then, Ye Qi's father, in the name of Kong Meng Huazhang's first-class agent in Liaoning Province, went to all major cities in Liaoning Province, signed a total of more than 200 clothing stores, and transformed these clothing stores into the style of Confucius Menghua Zhang at the fastest speed!
In December, not only all the clothing produced by Yejia Clothing Factory were sold out, but also Zhiwei Clothing Factory, which was the first to manufacture Kong Menghuazhang Clothing, had to work overtime in three shifts to sell various styles of clothing in the hot Liaoning market!
For a while, Ye Qi's father, Ye Haoyong, became a well-known entrepreneur in Liaoning Province, and Kong Menghuazhang Clothing also overwhelmed all other brands and became the most well-known brand among Liaoning young people!
Advertising in this era can be as powerful as it is!
At the same time, it is also known by young people in Liaoning, as well as Meng Jiji, the 'chief designer' of Kong Menghuazhang. When promoting the Kong Menghuazhang brand, Ye Haoyong printed 5 million copies of leaflets and 500,000 copies of pamphlets.
In these leaflets and brochures, there is not only the introduction of Kong Menghuazhang's clothing brand, but also some exaggerated introductions of Meng Zhe's surname. For example, Meng Zhe's clothing is crazily sought after by young people in Japan and Taiwan, and is popular throughout Southeast Asia, etc. In order to prove that what is said is indeed true... Ye Haoyong Pictures are on the leaflets and brochures.
These pictures are just used as evidence. One is a photo of Meng Zhe wearing COS clothes and the two big Loli and Guan Yuluo of the Jiang family when Meng Zhe was signed by a Japanese animation information magazine. The two are the two photos given by Meng Zhe to Ye Qi and Ye Lin... They appeared on these brochures at the same time. There are also some celebrities in the local clothing industry in Liaoning who comment on Kong Menghuazhang's clothing - there is no doubt that the comments that can appear on the publicity are all praised by the surname.
The most important thing is the comments of several foreign "famous designers" - exclamations, geniuses and so on... In short, at least within the scope of Liaoning Province, in addition to the talented young cartoonist, Meng Zhe also has a big hat of an internationally renowned talented fashion designer.
Well, well, after Meng Zhe, who had just finished drawing Fairy Sword, knew about this, he was a little crying and laughing. He didn't know what to say. After more than ten years of the great development of the Internet, it will probably be taken up by the master of netizens, right?
Ha ha, Tang Jun, the former president of Microsoft China, was because he took a Western Pheasant University in the United States... Oh, no, the doctoral degree of the Western Pacific University in the United States, which was priced at $2,595, was exposed by the first person [***] of online academic fraud, and he was about to die.
Speaking of [***], Meng Zhe actually has a relatively neutral attitude towards this person, although [***] in 1994, that is, this year, he founded the world's first magazine "[***]", although [***]'s exaggerated academic fraud makes ordinary The public understands a lot of truth, but [***] he will never be sure of the good side of his criticism.
Using the experimental medicine of Western medicine to deny the experience of traditional Chinese medicine, [***] He affirmed the safe surname of genetically modified food, and he was pointed out by others that his article was also seriously suspected of plagiarism. These two are already a matter of character.
Of course, Meng Zhe feels that even in his life, he probably won't have any intersection with [***]. After all, drawing comics and so on are not popular in the mainstream consciousness of Chinese society.
Since he is not in the stream, how can someone pay attention to it and then step on his Meng Zhe's shoulder to get on the top?
This is the same as the fact that in martial arts novels, the world-famous masters and masters will always be challenged by countless people. Who will be full of the Jianghu shrimps who are ranked lower than their own in martial arts? If you don't say anything, if you lose, you will lose the boss's face... So, Meng Zhe was at ease again. He also acquiesced to Ye Haoyong's exaggerating him into an internationally renowned talented designer or something. Speaking of which, if Meng Zhe really says that he is a genius designer, some people will believe it, because looking at the animation teenager or even the comics on the Japanese side, almost no one can surpass Meng Zhe in the design of future space-time scenes and costume design.
As a reborn Meng Zhe, the clothes he draws are always full of visual impact and ultra-modernity. Even these clothing styles have been quietly changing the clothing trend of the whole China with the emergence of the Kong Meng Huazhang brand.
Meng Zhe just didn't pay much attention to these problems. After all, in his eyes, the clothing styles of the current era are very limited compared with the future.
The only thing that makes Meng Zhe more gratified is that it is popular for women to wear leggings, that is, the trend of bodybuilding pants has finally passed. Although the female surname with slender legs is quite attractive when wearing bodybuilding pants, there are not many women with slender legs... So looking at those who wear bodybuilding pants with thick legs and circled legs everywhere, it is clearly a great destruction of the visual system!
Since the legs are not beautiful, we should find a way to cover it up and shift the public's attention to a beautiful place! What's wrong with this kind of self-exposure?!
Every time Meng Zhe sees such a situation, he will be full of tears.
However, a few years later, the bodybuilding trousers, which are now quietly at the end of the curtain, will come again in the name of leggings. From trousers that can be worn directly to underwear with long and short skirts, they have become a good thing that attracts men's attention.
Well, do you want to design leggings or something in advance and then promote them?
Meng Zhe thought so, and he quickly made a decision - just do it! Let the light tone girl put on leggings, **** those otaku who read comic books!
Meng Zhe, who basically had a belly manuscript, showed a smile that only a man would understand. Then he handed over the short story "Fairy Sword" to the editor of "Anime Time" magazine, and then whistled back home.
Meng Zhe, who returned home, opened his old antique thinkpad laptop leisurely. After dialing and logging in or something, Meng Zhe's version of the hao123 website navigation page was displayed by the opened web browser, and then Meng Zhe did not There is a domain name that directly clicks the "Qidian Chinese Network" in the reading option below, but the domain name in the URL bar on it.
After pressing the Enter key again, the indicator light of the 56K kitten flashed and flashed. After flashing for more than ten seconds, it finally opened Meng Zhe's familiar reading website - Qidian Chinese Network.
Although in later generations, in order to facilitate new readers to remember the domain name from the old one to the new one, for an old bookworm like Meng Zhe, he still feels that the domain name CMFU is more intimate, so after the Qidian Chinese website was made, he asked Bian Xiaochun to use both domain names. The application was made, and then he, the big boss, can freely use the domain name of cmfu.
After logging in to the account of the super administrator, Meng Zhe first entered the background of the website to check the data of the current day - the reading power access IP: 3843; the new registered member of the day: 243; the average page stay time... "It's not bad, at least it's much better than the data a few days ago!"
Meng Zhe happily exited the background of the website, and then typed the URL. After another flash of 56K kitten, the page was jumped to a book page that had just been updated with more than 5,000 words.
The name of this book is: Burning Shana.
It's just the author's name, but it's not the name of a mud bombard, but: Kong Menghua Zhang.
The page shows that the first chapter of Volume 0 has been updated, but the title of the chapter has changed from the original 'Dashang Zhunzi' to 'Guan Yingying'. Although I haven't opened the chapter page yet, I have seen a little bit of what I can see on the front page of the book - every Thursday, from a nearby cake shop. It has always been a habit of Guan Yingying to buy strawberries and cakes in Lucas. Because Thursday is a discount day, each piece will be 50 yuan cheaper than the ordinary day.
--'I'm already a sophomore in high school, but I'm still like a child'--"
Her mother often jokes at her like this.
(If I do something "adult-like", she will obviously be angry, really.) The cherry duck usually smiles back with a hint of resistance.
Unlike the gentle slope that I usually walk when I go home, I pass by "pull. On the way home, Lucas must climb a long stone step in one go. Although it's a little tiring to climb up, it's a great pleasure for her to look at the distance from the top of the stone steps, just like buying a cake to go home... Well, well, how can there be anyone other than Meng Zhe who can write "The Burning Shana" in this era?
As for changing Dashang Junzi to Guan Yingyang, there is no doubt that it is the bad taste of Meng Zhe, a belly black man, because Guan Yingyang is clearly the feminine version of Guan Yingyang!
Who let Guan Yingyang not only say harsh words to Meng Zhe on the streets of Wufeng County, but also let Meng Zhe drink hot spring water when he soaked in the hot spring last time!
Ah, Meng Zhe has always been very generous... Looking at the name Guan Yingyan in the title, Meng Zhe smiled with bad taste.
Then, Meng Zhe noticed that although the article was only published last night, there were already several messages under the article.
So, Meng Zhe casually clicked on a nickname "Tu Fei" and read the message: "Wow! The illustrations related to the work are so beautiful! It must be Mr. Jiji who drew the illustration, right?! Isn't that right?! Isn't that right?!"
Meng Zhe closed the message casually, and then he was stunned when he saw the reader's nickname in the second message, because the reader's nickname was... Ma Boyong.
