Chapter 534 Pei Yue receives a critical blow
Tian Shao never thought about letting Pei Yue learn English, since he wouldn't use it in his profession, so there was no need to waste time and energy on learning it. She took out a newspaper and handed it to Pei Yue, and then read another comic called "Dragon Tiger Gate" by herself.
Tian Shao doesn't like the portraits or the content. However, she needs to understand the current market situation in Hong Kong City, so she still reads patiently. Also because I didn't like it, I watched it quickly.
After reading all the newspapers, Tian Shao fell into deep thought.
Seeing him like this, Pei Yue didn't dare to disturb him, and even if Xing Shaohui came, he signaled the other party not to speak. The two had talked to each other before, so they were considered acquaintances. He whispered: "She was thinking about the storyline of the comics, and I was afraid that I would interrupt her train of thought if I called her."
Xing Shaohui saw Tian Shao and was very surprised: "You mean, she is K?"
Because it was in the lobby, Pei Yue nodded and didn't say much.
Tian Shao was awakened by the two people talking. She looked at a thin middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses standing next to Pei Yue, and guessed that this person should be Xing Shaohui: "Uncle, long time no see."
Xing Shaohui also reacted quickly, and said with a smile on his face: "I haven't seen a grown-up girl in a few years. Come on, go to my office first."
Because he is a business executive, he has a separate office, but it is not as big as more than ten square meters. Xing Shaohui closed the door, then poured a glass of water for the two of them: "Brother Pei, K, it's been a long journey, thank you for your hard work."
Pei Yue took the water, shook his head and said it was not hard, and then asked: "Brother Xing, the purpose of our coming to Hong Kong this time, will the higher-ups tell you?"
Xing Shaohui nodded and said: "I told you, you are going to come to Hong Kong City to buy a comic company. Brother Pei, K, it takes a lot of money to buy a comic company."
Tian Shao said with a smile: "Brother Xing, K is just my pen name, my name is Tian Shao, you can call me Xiaotian."
Xing Shaohui was also polite, nodded and said: "Xiaotian, people in the inland say that Hong Kong is full of gold. The living standard here is indeed better than that in the inland. As long as you work hard to stay warm, it is fine, but it is difficult to make a lot of money."
Tian Shao knows that no one is optimistic about her, even Pei Yue is concerned, so it is useless to say too much before making achievements: "The superiors are willing to let me try, so they believe in my strength. Brother Xing, tell me The situation of the comics business here in Lower Harbor City."
Xing Shaohui just reminded her to prepare her mentally. Since the superiors asked her to come, they naturally believed her.
Xing Shaohui took out a document from the drawer: "This is the information I collected during this period, take a look."
Tian Shao took it out and looked at the two largest comic newspapers in Hong Kong City. One is the newspaper she contributed to "Gu Chuan". Before she submitted the manuscript, "Bruce Lee" was the main issue; The latter is the most powerful and is also the largest newspaper in Hong Kong City. This newspaper is ambitious. According to the information, this company has acquired a lot of small newspapers, and it looks like it wants to monopolize the comics industry.
After she finished reading, Xing Shaohui said: "The sales volume of the newspaper you contributed to is not high. Before your submission, each sales volume was only more than 30,000, and it was declining every month. Without your comics, it may be at most If it lasts for a while, it will be acquired.”
Tian Shao said: "I've read both of the two comics you just mentioned. They are both about gangs and martial arts. Moreover, most of the comics published in the supplement are of the same type, which are not interesting."
Tian Shao said: "I watched it in the lobby just now. To be honest, I don't like this style. And I believe that parents don't want their children to watch it, because they are afraid that their children will learn badly. In addition, little girls will not like this style of playing. Killed."
She herself came from that stage. Her female classmates basically don’t like this kind of comics about fighting, killing, and dominating. They basically like cute and cute comics. She is quite special, especially like comics and books of suspense and reasoning, and this is why she wrote "Detective Furukawa". It's just that suspense and reasoning novels are very exhausting, and the cases she wrote were written after repeated polishing.
Xing Shaohui nodded and said: "You are right, but it is just like this now."
"This is the reason why I want to acquire a comic newspaper. What I want is not a single cartoon of fighting and killing. I hope that there are many styles. There are loyalty, suspenseful reasoning, adventure and excitement, and cuteness. comics."
Xing Shaohui was puzzled. The first three are clear, but the fourth is cute and cute.
Tian Shao did not explain, and said: "It is impossible for all the small comic newspapers in Hong Kong City to be acquired?"
Just starting a comic book would have to start from scratch, and she didn't have the time. There is less than half a month before the school starts, and she has to rush back to school before the school starts!
Xing Shaohui said with a smile: "There is a comic newspaper called "Mars" that has not been acquired. This newspaper was originally founded by a son who loves comics. I don't care. It's just that this young man made some mistakes and was sent abroad by his family, and this newspaper was listed as for sale by his family, and the employees also left."
Tian Shao asked: "This comic newspaper is losing money, how could someone buy it?"
Xing Shaohui said: "The newspapers are losing money, but the floor is valuable. It's just that many people believe in Fengshui, and the six companies opened on this floor all lost money. The same is true, and no one bought it for more than three months."
This Tian Shao knows, not to mention now, even forty years later, those rich men in Hong Kong City will ask Fengshui masters for anything. It is not enough to say superstition, after all, there are some things in the world that cannot be explained by science.
Tian Shao asked: "How much is the other party asking for?"
"One million Hong Kong dollars, the area of the floor is about 240 square meters. The office building is in Causeway Bay, and the location is very good."
Pei Yue said in disbelief: "Why is it so expensive? The place I lived in was only one or two hundred square meters."
It's just a difference of four years. How could the price difference be so big? At this moment, he really felt that Hong Kong City was magical.
Tian Shao glanced at Pei Yue, but didn't speak. The domestic prices are the same, and the prices of houses in different places are different, but the difference is not big. Unlike Hong Kong City, prices vary widely depending on the location. It's just a house price of one or two hundred in Hong Kong City, and I don't know in which corner to perform the task.
Xing Shaohui explained: "You are talking about the price of more than four years, and the location is different. Tonglong Bay is close to the center, and the house price is very expensive, and the office building is even more expensive."
Pei Yue calculated in his mind that more than two hundred and forty would cost one million Hong Kong dollars, which is more than four thousand and one level. With his 12,000 savings, he felt rich, but when he arrived in Hong Kong, he couldn't even afford a toilet.
At this moment, Pei Yue was hit violently.
