247, turning your hand over the clouds and turning your hand into rain
The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit!
A truth that has endured for thousands of years!
When Mediterranean and others united, Ma Shixing was completely defeated.
No, he should have lost from the moment he was ready to agree to Huang Yulang's temptation and take action on "Fantasy Comics"!
For ordinary people in Hong Kong, the only change brought about by the change of power of the distribution association is that "Fantasy Comics" can be bought on newsstands again!
Some people are happy, and naturally some people are sad!
This was the case for Huang Yulang. After receiving the three million from Zhang Chengzhong, Huang Yulang immediately contacted major newspapers, radio stations, TV stations in Hong Kong and some publicity channels in Southeast Asia. He was bound to bring the "Little Rascals" series to its peak again.
It feels so good to spend money like water!
Seeing that most of the three million in cash had been spent by himself in the past few days, Huang Yulang suddenly felt generous and generous in spending a lot of money!
But this generous feeling was instantly thrown into the abyss with the news I got today!
Looking at the Mediterranean Sea in front of him, Huang Yulang felt angry because just now the other party actually told him that he would increase the sales share of the "Little Rascals" series.
Familiar recipe, familiar taste, but this meal was originally prepared by him for "Fantasy Comics", and now it is used on him.
"Mediterranean, are you out of your mind? If you dare to talk to me like this, let Ma Shixing, the president of your distribution association, come to me. I want to ask him what he thinks!"
Huang Yulang preached angrily.
At this time, he was preparing to run hard, but he found that there were several lumps of cake under his feet. This feeling made Huang Yulang very unhappy.
Mediterranean smiled relaxedly and said: "Boss Huang, there is something you may not know. Ma Shixing is no longer the president of our distribution association. In addition, he has also left the industry. Now I am the president of the Xiangjiang Distribution Association.
President!"
"How is this possible?" Huang Yulang couldn't help but asked loudly, why did Ma Shixing suddenly leave the Distribution Association?
Mediterranean waved his hand, as if he was holding the beautiful mountains and rivers in his hand, and said: "Nothing is impossible in this world. Ma Shixing's matter is a foregone conclusion. Boss Huang, don't ask any more questions. Let's talk about what I said before."
Something!”
"Dream!" How could Huang Yulang accept the other party's request? He directly refused: "It is impossible for me to agree to your request!"
Mediterranean looked at Huang Yulang pretending to be surprised: "Boss Huang, have you already negotiated cooperation with Yunhai Chain?"
"I..." Huang Yulang's tone was stagnant. He was useless at contacting me.
Mediterranean said proudly: "Boss Huang has been notified of the matter. If you don't agree, boss Huang, then I'm sorry, we will not be able to cooperate with Boss Huang in the latest issue of the "Little Rascals" series."
After saying that, Mediterranean got up and left!
"Wait, wait a minute!" Huang Yulang called out to the Mediterranean in a depressed voice.
At this time, it was no longer something he disagreed with. He had just signed a betting agreement with Zhang Chengzhong on the sales of "Little Rascals". If he fell out with these people from the Distribution Association now, he wouldn't have to wait until three months.
In the future, you can give up Yulang Books to Zhang Chengzhong now.
So at this time, Huang Yulang had to agree even if he didn't agree.
"Let's discuss it further..."
...
Negotiation is always everywhere.
When Huang Yulang was negotiating with the distribution association, Chu Huan also welcomed someone who wanted to negotiate with him.
Hu Xian from Sing Tao Daily.
"Ms. Hu, what brings you here?"
In his office in Jiahu Building, Chu Huan personally received Hu Xian, and then asked him knowingly.
Hu Xian sat opposite Chu Huan and looked at the young man in front of her. She couldn't help but marvel in her heart. When she was his age, she had not yet taken over "Sing Tao Daily".
Although many people have said that at that time, she was young and promising and could save the "Sing Tao Daily" which was on the verge of collapse, but only Hu Xian herself understood how uneasy she felt at that time.
But now the young man in front of him has already done something earth-shattering in Xiangjiang.
There are really big differences between people!
"Mr. Chu, in fact, in my impression, the cooperation between Mr. Chu and our "Sing Tao Daily" was very good at the beginning, especially regarding the Huang Yulang incident. Our "Sing Tao Daily" gave Mr. Chu
It’s very convenient!”
Hu Xian first played an emotional card for Chu Huan.
Chu Huan saw the trick and said with a smile: "Ms. Hu, what you said is a bit biased. Not to mention the scolding war between me and Huang Yulang, "Sing Tao Daily" collected my advertising fees.
It also increased sales.
In fact, at that time, I thought I was already friends with "Sing Tao Daily", but I didn't expect that when I turned around, I was stabbed by the newspaper. Is this how Ms. Hu treats her friends?"
Hu Xian's expression did not change at all, and she still smiled and said: "This matter is indeed something that our "Sing Tao Daily" did something wrong. In this matter, our "Sing Tao Daily" is also willing to apologize to Mr. Chu.
Therefore, we at Sing Tao Daily are willing to pay Mr. Chu 15 million Hong Kong dollars for mental damages!"
Chu Huan asked for 10 million in mental damages, but now Hu Xian proposed 15 million in mental damages.
It's obvious that the other party has other motives.
"What do you mean, Miss Hu, don't want to publish an apology in the newspaper?" Chu Huan guessed what Hu Xian was thinking.
Hu Xian nodded and said: "I hope Mr. Chu can forgive me. We at Sing Tao Daily also have our own difficulties in this matter. If Mr. Chu is still dissatisfied with the price compensation, we can continue to discuss it!"
Chu Huan waved his hand and said: "It is true that the compensation can be discussed, but there is no possibility of bargaining on the matter of publishing an apology in the newspaper!"
Hu Xian raised her eyebrows slightly, and then said calmly: "When you go to court, anything can happen. Isn't Mr. Chu worried that he will lose this lawsuit?"
Chu Huan chuckled and said: "If you lose, then appeal. It doesn't matter to me even if it goes to the House of Commons. I think everyone already knows the details of this matter. It was nothing more than your newspaper and the other two newspapers.
Seeing the sensational nature of this news, I forgot to investigate and collect evidence, and made a wrong decision. I believe that justice will prevail in the hearts of the people!"
Chu Huan's resolute attitude gave Hu Xian a headache. In this negotiation, since she had taken the initiative to come to the door, she was destined to be at a disadvantage. Fortunately, Hu Xian still had a trump card!
"I heard that Mr. Chu has a very good relationship with Gu Chengxi, the editor-in-chief of "Zhen Bao". Especially recently, "Zhen Bao" has obtained a lot of news about Mr. Chu, and even conducted exclusive interviews with the actors in the black and white video. It seems that
Mr. Chu takes great care of Gu Chengxi!"
Sure enough, there are no fools in this world. After listening to Hu Xian's words, Chu Huan already understood that the other party must have guessed something.
He smiled and said, "Everyone in Xiangjiang knows that Gu Chengxi and I know each other. Naturally, I have to help my friend start his own business!"
Hu Xian asked with a smile: "So, Mr. Chu is not the boss behind "True News" anymore?"
"Haha!" Chu Huan laughed loudly, and then said: "So that's what Miss Hu thinks. Originally, I didn't need to say anything to Miss Hu about this matter, but in order to prevent Miss Hu from being misled by wrong news again.
, I can tell you responsibly that I personally do not hold any shares in "True News"!"
I personally don’t hold it, but that doesn’t mean the investment company under my name doesn’t hold it!
Hu Xian's heart moved slightly. Could it be that she had thought wrong?
Chu Huan looked at the time and said: "Okay, it's almost time. I have other things to do. If Miss Hu can't change her mind, then there will be nothing left to talk about between us. Or
See you in court!"
Can Hu Xian leave?
She can't leave!
Although she didn't know what Chu Huan's trump card was, the outcome of this matter was destined to be unfavorable to her. Now Chu Huan's image had changed among the citizens. If she continued like this, she would first
Regardless of whether the lawsuit can be won or not, at least the reputation of Sing Tao Daily in this matter is definitely not that good.
Thinking of this, Hu Xian understood that she had lost the negotiation this time.
"If our Sing Tao Daily publishes an apology, I wonder what kind of concessions Mr. Chu can make in terms of compensation?"
"Five million!" Chu Huan named a number and said: "This price is already very suitable. To be honest, Miss Hu is here in person today. Otherwise, I personally don't want to accept the so-called
Reconciliation outside the court is not a good solution for me personally."
Seeing Chu Huan who was still acting nice after taking advantage, Hu Xian took a deep breath and said: "Okay, tomorrow Mr. Chu will be able to read our apology in "Sing Tao Daily"!"
Chu Huan showed a satisfied expression, "I have to say that this was a wise move by Miss Hu. Not only did she save a lot of legal fees, but she also received 5 million less in compensation!"
Hu Xian laughed, and then said: "Mr. Chu is the biggest winner!"
Chu Huan smiled easily: "I have always been the winner!"
How irritating... Hu Xian said: "By the way, Mr. Chu, the entertainment section of our newspaper has always wanted to interview the two ladies Lin Qingxia and Zhao Yazhi. Now that you and I have reached an agreement
Reconciliation, I wonder if Mr. Chu can make it easier?"
This is the real reason why Hu Xian came to Chu Huan. Of course, this real reason does not simply refer to the interview with Lin Qingxia and Zhao Yazhi, but to establish a relationship with Chu Huan again.
cooperative relationship.
There is really too much news here about Chu Huan, whether it is the black and white videos in his name, fantasy comics, or the current Jiahu Textile, it seems to be a news production machine, one or two will break out every once in a while
A piece of news that shocked Hong Kong.
Hu Xian wanted to hold on to this news line tightly, but she didn't see "True News" because she clung to Chu Huan's thigh, and then successfully doubled her sales several times!
Chu Huan understood what Hu Xian meant, but Chu Huan did not reject Hu Xian's conditions, even though Chu Huan was the boss behind "True News"!
In Xiangjiang, even if a newspaper achieves the number one sales volume, its actual influence is still limited. Only by having more cooperative relationships with more media can Chu Huan have greater influence in Xiangjiang!
"Of course there is no problem. I will give Fang Jianhui a call soon. The specific interview time will be decided by Miss Hu's "Sing Tao Daily"!"
Hu Xian finally showed a real smile: "If that's the case, then I'd like to thank Mr. Chu first!"
Chu Huan laughed: "Miss Hu is too polite!"
...
Not long after Hu Xian left Jiahu Building, Mediterranean came to Jiahu Building again and met Chu Huan.
This is the second time Chu Huan has seen the Mediterranean Sea.
But now when Chu Huan watches Mediterranean, she can still think of Xie Guangkun in "Country Love". The two people's images are really close.
At this time, Xie Guangkun...er, no, it was Mediterranean, with a flattering smile on his face, nodding and bowing his head while preaching to Chu Huan.
"Master Huan, although Huang Yulang has lowered the price a little, he still agreed to our share request. I really want to thank you, Master Huan, for this matter!"
Chu Huan waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's not a difficult thing in the first place. There's nothing to be grateful for."
Seeing Chu Huan's demeanor, the more he looked at her, the more he admired her. What does it mean to turn one's hands into rain, and this is the Chu Huan in front of her?
I was thinking at the beginning that Huang Yulang would have to resist, but I didn't expect that Huang Yulang would give in so easily. Although the sales of the "Little Rascals" comic series are no longer as good as at the peak, there is still a profit.
Not a small income.
I didn't expect that what I didn't get from "Fantasy Comics" at the beginning, I could get it from Huang Yulang now.
This has to be admired by Mediterranean Sea, and when Chu Huan told him about this matter at that time, he also said with great certainty: "Huang Yulang will definitely agree to my request!"
Now everything is as expected by Chu Huan.
"Today I finally know what it means to win from thousands of miles away. Master Huan, you have already decided the outcome of this matter without doing anything. I really admire you!"
Regarding Mediterranean's flattery, Chu Huan happily accepted it and said: "If this is the case, then what is the split requirement between us?"
Mediterranean immediately said: "Everything will be calculated according to your requirements, Master Huan. 5% will be divided into 5%!"
Increasing Huang Yulang's sales share is to create obstacles for Huang Yulang, while lowering the sales share of "Fantasy Comics" is to create more benefits for himself.
"Very good, I have already made an agreement with Yunhai Convenience Store. From now on, people from your distribution association will be responsible for distributing "Fantasy Comics" in their store. As for the distribution of interests between you, that is your business!
"
Previously, Bao Tianming's younger brother was responsible for the distribution of "Fantasy Comics" in Yunhai convenience stores, but after all, they were not professional in this, and various mistakes would inevitably occur during the whole process.
Now handing it over to the Distribution Association is something Chu Huan has been in love with for a long time.
Leave professional matters to professionals!
This has always been something Chu Huan believed in.
As for the distribution of profits, although "Fantasy Comics" and Yunhai Chain are both companies of their own, they are now working openly and secretly, so it is better to keep their public affairs clearly separate.
After listening to the news, Mediterranean suddenly showed an expression of joy and said: "Thank you, Mr. Huan, thank you, Mr. Huan. I guarantee that from now on, no matter the newsstand in Xiangjiang, Mr. Huan's "Fantasy Comics" will definitely be on the
The most conspicuous place!”
Chu Huan nodded with satisfaction and said, "You can have this!"
...
Huang Yulang found Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick in despair!
Zhang Chengzhong has returned to Malaysia.
"Since Chu Huan has conquered those people from the Distribution Association, it seems that Chu Huan should already know about us people!"
Ma Shixing knew what happened between Huang Yulang and Michael Keswick.
Now that Ma Shixing has been taken down, Chu Huan naturally knows about the entire incident involving "Fantasy Comics".
Huang Yulang must tell Michael Keswick and Chen Qizong this news.
Of course, the most important thing is that Huang Yulang now wants to get some help from the two of them!
After hearing this, Mark Keswick and Chen Qizong also looked at Huang Yulang with great disappointment, and at the same time, they also felt a strong sense of helplessness in their hearts.
How did a great situation end up like this?
Luo Wei has been banned, and now Huang Yulang has also been killed. Even when they broke the news that Chu Huan triggered the Hong Kong stock market crash, now with Chu Huan's series of operations, the mentality of the people in Hong Kong has slowly begun to change.
.
So, what exactly did they do during this time?
Michael Keswick and Chen Qizong are both very conceited. Conceited people have a common problem, that is, they will not admit their mistakes.
"Trash, I thought you were different from Luo Wei, but I didn't expect that you are just like Luo Wei. You are also a trash. You can't even handle a mere Chu Huan. What's the use of keeping you?"
Michael Keswick didn't think he had done anything wrong. He had set up such a good stage for them, and they actually messed up the matter. It wasn't their problem, but whose problem it was!
Hearing Michael Keswick's words, Huang Yulang was suddenly shocked. This scene was so familiar. It had happened to Luo Wei before.
Now that I think about it, the scene at that time is still vivid in my mind!
Whatever happened to Luo Wei must never happen to me again. This is unacceptable.
So Huang Yulang hurriedly said: "Mr. Keswick, Chu Huan is really too cunning in this matter. If he hadn't secretly contacted Yunhai Chain, there would never have been any problems with our plan.
But Mr. Keswick, you don’t have to worry. Now that my Yulang Books has received ample funds, it will definitely usher in a period of rapid development. I believe it won’t be long before even those who don’t have a distribution association
Help, my "Little Rascals" series will definitely surpass "Fantasy Comics" in sales, and by then, we can also suppress Chu Huan's business!"
Michael Keswick and Chen Qizong looked at each other and understood that no one between them could be left behind. Although the Huang Yulang in front of them was a bit stupid, he still had some use.
"What do you want?" Chen Qizong asked aloud.
Both Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick knew that Huang Yulang would not simply come to them to tell them about this matter.
There must be other things going on.
Sure enough, after hearing what Chen Qizong said, Huang Yulang immediately showed an expression of joy and said: "The thing is like this, although I am very confident that I can make the "Little Rascals" series of comics surpass "Fantasy Comics" in sales,
But the current reality is that ordinary people in Hong Kong still believe in "Fantasy Comics" more.
If I want to change their thinking, then my Yulang Books must make big moves. Think about it, if the next issue of the "Little Rascals" series of comics suddenly has a sales explosion, and then it will be promoted by the media.
, will definitely attract the attention of Xiangjiang comics fans.
This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! By that time, I think there will definitely be more people who want to buy the "Little Rascals" series of comics. I believe that as long as these people buy it, they will definitely
You will be attracted by my story and won’t be able to put it down.
In that case, the sales of the "Little Rascals" comic series will naturally increase!
And the corresponding readers of "Fantasy Comics" were snatched away by us!"
This is the real reason why Huang Yulang came to find Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick.
He wants to create a sales miracle in the history of Xiangjiang comics, so that his comics can reach the pinnacle of the Xiangjiang comics industry.
This completed the gambling agreement with Zhang Chengzhong and also increased the influence of the "Little Rascals" comic series.
Best of both worlds!
The 'Avengers' formed by Michael Keswick was originally a temporary group, and each of these people had their own agenda.
Both Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick understood that the method Huang Yulang said was feasible, but at the same time they also understood that Huang Yulang wanted to make them pay!
Although the money will not be too much, after all, the price of a copy of "Little Rascals" is only 60 Hong Kong dollars. Even if the sales volume is increased by 100,000 copies, it will only cost an extra 60,000 Hong Kong dollars.
Neither Michael Keswick nor Chen Qizong would take this amount of money seriously.
If you just want to complete Huang Yulang's plan, a single phase is definitely not enough. There must be four or five phases to create influence.
If this is the case, it will be 300,000 Hong Kong dollars.
This amount of money is not a small amount.
In addition, according to Huang Yulang, one hundred thousand copies should not be enough.
Chen Qizong asked tentatively: "Huang Yulang, how much sales are you planning to increase?"
Huang Yulang hurriedly said: "At least 350,000 volumes!"
Now the sales volume of Huang Yulang's "Little Rascals" series has dropped to 150,000 copies in a single issue, and what he wants to do is to create a sales miracle of 500,000 copies in a single issue of Xiangjiang Comics.
Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick were a little shocked by Huang Yulang's ambition, 350,000 copies, which means that each issue will cost 210,000 Hong Kong dollars, and five issues will cost 1.05 million Hong Kong dollars!
If this amount had been placed before the stock market crash, it would have been nothing to them, but now... it is enough to scare away Michael Keswick and Chen Qizong!
Huang Yulang saw the worries in the two people's hearts and hurriedly explained: "This money will definitely not be spent by both of you. When the sales funds come back, I will return it to you immediately!"
Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick nodded slightly, and then Chen Qizong asked aloud: "What is your sales profit from "Little Rascals"?"
Huang Yulang replied: "40%!"
Originally, the cost of Huang Yulang's "Little Rascals" comics and Chu Huan's "Fantasy Comics" were the same. The distributor took 8% and the production cost took 20%. The profit in Hong Kong could reach 72%.
But now the market has changed. Distributors represented by Mediterranean Sea will take 30% of the sales share from Huang Yulang this time. After this calculation, Huang Yulang's profit is only 50%.
As for why he told Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick that the two were 40%, it was naturally Xiao Jiujiu in his heart who was at fault!
Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick did not doubt Huang Yulang. Chen Qizong even calculated: "If it is 40%, then we have to pay 105,000 Hong Kong dollars each for your plan!"
Now, in their Avengers Alliance, except for Luo Wei who was kicked out of the team, only Chen Qizong, Michael Keswick, Zhang Chengzhong, and Huang Yulang are left.
Chen Qizong calculated it on average based on four people.
But, can Huang Yulang let Zhang Chengzhong know about his plan?
To be honest, Zhang Chengzhong can actually know that in Huang Yulang's view, this is a business plan and is not a deliberate fraud on his part.
But Huang Yulang still didn't want Zhang Chengzhong to know, so he said: "Master Zhang already knows about my plan and has agreed to it, and the money has been transferred to my account!"
At this time, in Huang Yulang's opinion, he could hide it for a while!
It was only 100,000. Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick thought about it for a while and then agreed.
"Well, since we can deal with Chu Huan, then this money is well spent."
Seeing that Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick agreed, Huang Yulang immediately smiled and said: "Since you two have no objections, I can start this matter in the next issue, and when the sales of the comics increase, I can also
Let’s discuss the sharing of profits with the people from the Distribution Association again. By then, your losses will definitely be less.”
Chen Qizong nodded with satisfaction.
Just when Huang Yulang thought the matter had been settled, Michael Keswick suddenly spoke.
"Even if we loaned this money to you, Boss Huang, when your comic sales increase later, you still have to pay back the money!"
Huang Yulang's expression suddenly changed. He had a falling out with Chu Huan because of them... At least that's what Huang Yulang thought.
Now let each of them receive 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and you have to pay it back in the future?
Chen Qizong immediately echoed: "That's right, Huang Yulang, don't blame us for being careless. Everyone knows the current market situation in Xiangjiang, and it's not easy for anyone!"
It's not easy for your grandma to have such a bad leg... Huang Yulang couldn't help cursing in his heart.
But what could he say?
In the end, I had no choice but to agree to their request!
