Chapter 253: Mo Ming's Surging

After Tomato and Huameng got married, they moved to Jiayuan Community, and they were very close to Meng Huo's home.

This made Li Qin and Meng Huo a little happy. Li Qin no longer has to worry about being without company, and Meng Huo's work has become more convenient. He can justifiably let Tomato and Hua Meng work late.

"This is not the result I expected..."

Teacher Tomato moved to a new house full of joy. He didn't expect to wait for a nightmare job. In addition to the regular updates of "Detective Conan", he also helped Meng Huo take charge of some of the background and outlet work of "One Piece".

Meng Huo paid him a little more, but Tomato wanted more time and Hua Meng to enjoy their married life. His dream was cruelly wiped out by Meng Huo, and even the editors of the editorial department forced him to help.

"Tomato, you have to work harder, otherwise there are too few words in "One Piece" next month, which will easily affect the sales of "Xi"."

The editors said that, no matter how reluctant, Tomato still clenched his teeth and persisted. He stayed at Meng Huo’s house almost every day to help, reducing unnecessary work. Meng Huo’s progress was very fast. Intensive drawing, you can draw ten words before the release next month.

"You can just be the official assistant of One Piece."

While resting, Meng Huo suggested to the thin-faced tomato.

"No, I don't want it!" Tomato refused without hesitation and stayed in the study all day to paint. This kind of hardship is more than ever before. Moreover, Tomato thinks that he is not capable of being an assistant to "One Piece".

It's okay to let him do some auxiliary work, if you want to really draw stories. The style of "One Piece" was so different from "Detective Conan" that he couldn't do it. Only Meng Huo is the one who can change flexibly in various painting styles.

For this, the editorial department is also full of amazement.

Young cartoonists are the most malleable, and their style tends to be fixed when they are older, making it difficult to make radical changes. Meng Huo’s age is in a period where his style has not yet been fixed, but he can perfectly switch between a variety of styles. This has to be said to be a miracle. No one can compare with him in China.

Tomato is very sad, he works to death during the day. I have to ‘work’ when I go home at night. Newlyweds, no matter how hard they work, he can't leave Huameng in the cold—this kind of hard and sweet day makes Tomato lose much weight.

Meng Huo sympathizes with him, but he is not sloppy in his work. He has decided to launch the 10-character "One Piece" in "Xi" next month, because Zhongxia Company has surpassed his sales again.

This matter should start from the end of the wedding banquet, the week the wedding banquet ends. The price of "Weekly Boutique" has been reduced by one-fifth, and now it only costs 20 yuan to buy a "Weekly Boutique", while before that, it was 25 yuan.

The sudden price drop caused the sales of "Weekly Boutique" to soar, quickly surpassing Meng Huo. And the speed of opening the gap is faster than before. This made Meng Huo feel a pressure. He didn't know if Zhongxia would fiddle with other things in the future, so he wanted to guarantee the sales of "Xi" next month.

The best way to ensure sales is to increase the number of words in "One Piece".

"They are too shameless! They cut the price when they find that they are about to lose. This is not fair!" Meng Huo never had time to play with Shen Jie after the holiday. The little girl was a little angry: "Isn't this kind of price war illegal?"

Meng Huo also thought about her ideas. But Alice told him that there was no evidence that Zhongxia Company was engaged in vicious competition.

The original price of "Weekly Boutique" was too high, and the current price is half that of "Xi", but the number of words is also half. Zhongxia's adjustment of prices to this level cannot be said to be vicious competition.

Moreover, Zhongxia still has room for downward adjustments. They have unified sales channels, and the intermediate links and logistics costs are lower than those of Phoenix. If it really provokes a price war, most of the unlucky ones will be Phoenix.

In response to this wave of price cuts by Zhongxia, Phoenix had also discussed whether to lower the price of "Weekly Boy", but this proposal was first rejected by Meng Huo.

Lowering prices can increase sales, but he doesn't like this approach, and the price of "Weekly Boys" has a special curve. When there are few words, there are few words and when there are many words, it is not a good thing to break the balance.

Magazines are originally spread at small profits, even if one book is reduced by one piece, there will be great losses. Meng Huo felt that since he was able to draw "One Piece", there was no need to resort to the last resort.

But what he didn't expect was that the price cut was just a prelude to Zhongxia's fight against itself.

On May 27th, Ninghai First Airport.

Outside the ticket gate, a little boy running on the ground bumped into the foot of the man who had just come out.

"Be careful." The man helped him up and handed him to the boy's mother who rushed over: "Madam, there are many people at the airport, please take your own children."

His voice is very elegant, and his speech is as beautiful as singing, which makes the cheeks of the woman holding the child hot. She looked at the man enthusiastically. The man was wearing a hat, his face was mostly covered by sunglasses, only his mouth and nose could be seen.

But even so, her heart jumped involuntarily, and from the curve of her face, she felt that this man would be very handsome.

"That...you are..." The woman wanted to ask, but a blonde woman appeared in front of her.

"The people from Zhongxia Company are here..." After she finished speaking to the man, a few black-clothed bodyguards stepped in and separated the man from the mother and son, and then escorted him to the outside.

The woman watched them, and the man's back made her reluctant to leave. The man exudes a special temperament, he hasn't even seen the appearance, but a word of his, a contact, can easily capture the heart of the opposite sex.

Outside the airport, Wang Zhe and Qin Ya greeted these people: "Welcome to Ninghai~lightnovelpub.net~Mr. Mo Ming..."

"Hello." The man stretched out his hand and shook Wang Zhe, then took off his glasses, turned to look at Qin Ya next to him, and smiled: "Little princess, it's been a long time."

"Yes……"

Qin Ya lowered her head and her face was hot. Only in front of this man would this proud and romantic princess show such a shy expression.

Her heart is beating wildly, Mo Ming, the idol superstar in the entertainment industry, is hailed as the most handsome man in China by the media. If He Xi's appearance is a moon, then this man, his face is as bright and dazzling as the sun.

"Ninghai..."

Mo Ming looked up at the strange city, with a smile on his face.

"This is Alice's hometown?"

The former agent had been reluctant to let him over, but in the end, he came to her anyway.
