Jiahu Building, inside Chu Huan’s office!

Yasuo Kamikura and Zhong Zhichen sat opposite Chu Huan, with angry expressions on their faces.

"President, those distributors have gone too far. They want to increase their sales share, otherwise they will decide to stop cooperating with us!"

Kamikura Yasuo was in a very bad mood at this time. Just this morning, Kamikura Yasuo received a call from someone from the Xiangjiang Distribution Association.

In Xiangjiang, every industry has its own association or chamber of commerce, such as the Textile Association, the Film Association, the Real Estate Association, etc.

Even newspaper and magazine distributors in Hong Kong have their own distribution associations.

Chu Huan raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not expect that when the sales volume of "Fantasy Comics" became the first in the Xiangjiang comics industry, Xiangjiang's distribution association would dare to jump out and cause trouble for him at this time.

"Is it the Xiangjiang Distribution Association, not a certain distributor?"

Chu Huan was worried that she didn't understand what Kamikura Yasuo said in Cantonese, so she confirmed it with Zhong Zhichen again.

Zhong Zhichen said with the same angry look: "It's the distribution association, not a certain distributor. They seem to have specially negotiated it."

The distributors in Xiangjiang are just like the associations in Xiangjiang. There are different distributors according to different regions.

"So, these people suddenly united without us knowing?"

When it was determined that the Distribution Association was causing trouble with him, Chu Huan directly discovered the most critical issue. There were more than a dozen distributors under the Distribution Association. These people were not as united as they seemed, and they often fought with each other.

.

Now they suddenly united to fight against "Fantasy Comics". If no one united them, Chu Huan would not believe anything he said.

Zhong Zhichen was indeed someone that both Chu Huan and Kamikura Yasuo were optimistic about. After hearing what Chu Huan said, he immediately had an idea.

"President, you mean there are people behind these people?"

Chu Huan nodded and said: "Besides this reason, I can't think of any other reasons!"

Zhong Zhichen said suspiciously: "But in the publishing industry in Hong Kong, who has such great energy? Even if they are envious because they saw the sales of "Fantasy Comics", if no one connects with them, it is impossible.

This is the result now.”

After a pause, Zhong Zhichen suddenly said: "Could it be Huang Yulang?"

The biggest enemy of "Fantasy Comics" in Xiangjiang is Huang Yulang, and now it is only the distributors in Xiangjiang who have made a request to increase the sales share. It can be said that the only people who can do this are Xiangjiang people!

Chu Huan did not agree with Zhong Zhichen's idea and said: "Huang Yulang does not have that much energy. Now the sales of a single issue of "Fantasy Comics" combined with the sales of individual comics have exceeded Huang Yulang's comics. Do you think the distribution association

Will people offend us because of Huang Yulang?"

Zhong Zhichen also had his own opinion, saying: "Huang Yulang doesn't need to pay anything. He only needs to have a way to bring these people together and then make this suggestion. Money and silk can move people's hearts. I think those people will be tempted."

Hearing Zhong Zhichen's analysis, Chu Huan also nodded slightly. It was indeed possible, but Chu Huan still thought that Huang Yulang's level was not enough to facilitate this matter.

Kamikura Yasuo said anxiously: "President, we can find out who is the mastermind behind the scenes later, but now there are only two days until the next issue of the magazine is released. If we cannot reach an agreement with these distributors,

If the conditions are met, there will be no way for the next issue of "Fantasy Comics" to be launched in Hong Kong!"

For "Fantasy Comics", this is the top priority that needs to be solved now.

"If we can't know who the person behind it is, then we will always have to guard against that person hiding in the dark. This feels very bad!"

Chu Huan was not as anxious as Kamikura Yasuo and Zhong Zhichen.

"By the way, how much share do they ask for?"

Kamikura Yasuo said angrily: "Those are a group of greedy people, they actually want 40% of the sales share!"

"Haha, what a lion!"

By this time, both Kamikura Yasuo and Zhong Zhichen knew that they could only wait for Chu Huan to make a decision on this matter.

40% sales share, just as Chu Huan said, those people are really open-minded!

"I will handle this matter personally. You go to your normal work first. I will give you news the day after tomorrow!"

The next issue of "Fantasy Comics" goes on sale on the third day in two days!

Seeing what Chu Huan said, Kamikura Yasuo and Zhong Zhichen could only express their understanding, and then they stood up and left.

After they left, Chu Huan called Bao Tianming's phone number.

"What are Yu Toubiao and She Zaiming doing?" Chu Huan asked directly.

"You eat here with me every day and wait to die." Bao Tianming said lazily.

Chu Huan felt that he should find something to do for Bao Tianming. In his current state, he probably would be useless before Nazha could solve it.

However, this matter can only be arranged later. Chu Huan has more important things to do now.

"The two of them have not degraded their ability to interact with people, have they?" Chu Huan asked.

"Don't worry!" Bao Tianming said firmly: "The two of them are now very good at tracking people."

Chu Huan said with a smile: "That's good. I have a new job for them. Let them follow the people from the Distribution Association these days. I want to see who they have met, especially at parties!"

Bao Tianming suddenly became energetic and said directly: "Are those people from the Distribution Association causing trouble for you? There is no need to let Yu Toubiao and She Zaiming follow them on this matter. I will take people to find them now and promise to let them go."

They are honest."

The Distribution Association in Xiangjiang is different from the chambers of commerce in other industries, because the work interest of the Distribution Association determines that these people cannot be serious businessmen at all, and are more similar to the interests of the community.

But to say that they are a club is not enough.

It is somewhat similar to the Hong Kong coolies of the 1950s and 1960s.

When I was so bold, I even dared to ask the big guys at Oriental Daily to increase the sales share.

It was precisely because of their business model that Bao Tianming said he would take people to find them directly.

Regarding Bao Tianming's suggestion, Chu Huan refused: "No, this matter is a bit weird, but in any case, their behavior is still within the scope of business. If the power of the association is used, it will damage the business world."

The rules will be very troublesome!"

Any circle has its own unspoken rules. Before you become the person qualified to customize the rules, it is best not to easily try to break the unspoken rules of this circle, otherwise you are likely to be injured.

When Bao Tianming heard that he didn't have to take action himself, he immediately turned back to a decadent voice: "Okay, I'll let the two of them pass now."

Chu Huan hung up the phone, but just when Chu Huan was thinking about who might be behind this incident, Xu Yi walked in.

"Chairman, Mr. Li Xiaolong is here, he seems very anxious!"

Chu Huan frowned slightly. Li Xiaolong should be filming at Qingshan Temple at this time. Why did he suddenly come over at this time? A bad premonition rose in his heart.

"what happened?"

After Li Xiaolong came in, Chu Huan saw that the expression on Li Xiaolong's face was not very good, and knew that his hunch must have come true.

Sure enough, Li Xiaolong also brought him some bad news.

"Those people in Hollywood don't follow the rules!" Li Xiaolong said directly.

Chu Huan did not answer, waiting for what Li Xiaolong would say next.

"Today Andrew Morgan found me and said that if I want to continue to cooperate with Warner for my movies in the future, then I can't have black-and-white funding to get involved!"

Fantasy comics, black and white images appear simultaneously?

Is this a coincidence, or did someone do it on purpose?

Chu Huan suddenly felt that at this time, there was an inexplicable palm somewhere, slowly covering him.

"Is this why you came here?" Although Chu Huan had a guess in his mind, there was no expression on his face, and there was even a smile.

Seeing Chu Huan's expression, Li Xiaolong said incomprehensively: "Why are you so calm? I had an angry quarrel with Andrew Morgan just now, and I have clearly told him that if there is no financial intervention from Black and White Video

, I will not sign a contract with Warner, they are not the only company in Hollywood!"

Chu Huan smiled and said, "I think the other party must have not promised you, right?"

Li Xiaolong said angrily: "I don't care whether he agrees or not, anyway, I have already decided. If they really don't allow black and white images to be included in the next movie, then I will find another company!"

Chu Huan got up, went to the wine cabinet, and poured a glass of Coke for Li Xiaolong. Li Xiaolong usually didn't drink. The last time he drank with Chu Huan and Gu Long was a rare event.

"Look, hasn't the matter been solved for you? Brother Long, don't worry. Hollywood has always pursued the principle of money first. As long as your movie sells money in North America, then they will definitely do it.

Do things according to your ideas. Now Andrew Morgan, the reason why I dare to tell you this is because you have not really proven yourself in Hollywood."

Li Xiaolong took the Coke from Chu Huan's hand and said, "I understand what you mean, but there shouldn't be any conflict between you and Andrew Morgan. Didn't we have a happy chat at the power-on ceremony before? Why did he suddenly turn his back on you now?

Woolen cloth?"

Chu Huan said with deep eyes: "Maybe someone told him something? After all, no matter what, my joining still shared the profits that should belong to them!"

Li Xiaolong stood up suddenly and looked at Chu Huan with a complicated expression: "You mean, Mr. Zou is in the middle?"

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, but I'm sure someone must have done something here."

After a pause, Chu Huan said: "But I think it is unlikely that it is Zou Wenhuai. After all, if something like this happens now, both you and I will think that the other party did it."

When Li Xiaolong heard Chu Huan's analysis, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It would be best if it's not Mr. Zou!"

Chu Huan chuckled and said: "I didn't say it was definitely not Zou Wenhuai, I just said that it is unlikely that he would do this, but it does not mean that it is impossible. After all, he was not very happy with my cooperation some time ago!"

Li Xiaolong knew that Chu Huan was talking about Chu Huan's strong cooperation with Zou Wenhuai.

Regarding this matter, it is a commercial behavior of the two companies, and Li Xiaolong does not want to participate in it.
