Rebirth: The Era of Hong Kong Tycoon

Chapter 158 [Slave with three surnames]

Huang Yulang came to the market to investigate the sales of "Little Hooligans". He stopped at a large bookstore and finally found the comic strip he drew.

"Is your boss there?" Huang Yulang asked a clerk.

"Over there, the older one!" The clerk pointed to an old man who was arranging books.

Huang Yulang came to the old man with "Little Rascal" and asked, "Boss, how is this comic book selling?"

Seeing that Huang Yulang didn't look like a book buyer, the old man asked, "Are you?"

Huang Yulang replied: "I am Huang Yulang, the owner of Yulang Book Company, and the chief writer of "Little Rascals"!"

The old man asked, "Isn't Yulang Book Company a subsidiary of Modern Publishing House? Everyone in the industry knows about it!"

Suddenly Huang Yulang's heart was full of waves, was he being played by someone?
"How is it possible? My name is Huang Yulang, I must be the boss of Yulang Book Company!"

The old man also became interested and invited Huang Yulang to the office for a chat.

In the office, after hearing about Huang Yulang's life, the old man's eyes lit up.

"Obviously, the reason why Modern Publishing House supports you is to defeat Baoguang Publishing House; and then the company suppresses you everywhere, just to continue to squeeze you! Although you earn half, they earn Half, but Modern Publishing House has its own weekly manga magazine after all, and they must take care of their own products first."

Huang Yulang said helplessly: "I think the same way, but I have to continue to cooperate now. After I have funds, I will make plans!"

The old man was overjoyed, and pretended to say casually: "A publishing house doesn't need much investment, and it doesn't need to invest in a printing factory. The cost is only 4 to [-] Hong Kong dollars. It has been [-] months since Yulang Books released "Little Rascal" , why can't you come up with the money?"

Huang Yulang was speechless for a moment. It turned out that Huang Yulang gambled and drank, and his life was rotten. Although the monthly dividend was more than 1 yuan, the money he saved was less than 3 Hong Kong dollars.

The old man took the initiative to say again: "I like your dedication to the comics business and your perseverance! If you want to take control of it, you can cooperate with me. I can invest you 10 Hong Kong dollars, only [-]% of the shares, and Do not participate in any affairs of the company, only enjoy the share."

Huang Yulang was shocked when he heard the words, and asked without hesitation: "Really?"

The old man nodded fiercely, Huang Yulang was overjoyed immediately!

Yulang Book Company, Zhang Cheng and Huang Yulang are having a fierce quarrel.

Zhang Cheng resolutely said: "Since it is a cooperative company between the two parties, it is not so easy for us to withdraw the shares. According to the turnover of Yulang Books, the monthly profit can be 3 Hong Kong dollars. If Huang Sheng wants us to withdraw the shares, he has to pay us 30. Hong Kong dollars, otherwise no negotiation!"

After all, Huang Yulang is only a 21-year-old young man. Although he is young and vigorous, he lacks momentum!

"How could there be so many? Yulang Books only has one publication, "Little Rascal", and "Little Rascal" is produced by me and my team. You only invested [-] to [-] Hong Kong dollars in the initial stage!"

"You can't say that! Our Modern Publishing House is the manager, so logically speaking, it should be the owner of the company; the reason why "Little Rascal" is so high is due to the typesetting, distribution, and printing of Modern Publishing House. Retire In [-] steps, if the main writer is gone, can't this manga be drawn anymore?"

Huang Yulang's face turned blue and red, and it took him a while to realize that he had been fooled.

"I can't afford 30 Hong Kong dollars!"

"Then there is no other way. See if this works. Let's cooperate for another one and a half years. At that time, we will withdraw from Yulang Book Company unconditionally."

"This is the only way!"

Huang Yulang didn't quarrel, nor did he propose to sign a contract, which let Zhang Cheng know that Huang Yulang must have found a collaborator again, or that he had saved enough money and planned to publish it himself.

Zhang Cheng returned to Modern Publishing House and assembled several creative teams for "Dragon Tiger Gate".

"I plan to release "Dragon Tiger Gate" on November 11st, do you have any questions?"

There was a smile on everyone's face, and the chief writer named Ma Yuanrong said: "President, our manuscript has been stored for a month, and there is no problem at all!"

Zhang Cheng nodded and said, "Okay! After half a month, our "Dragon and Tiger Gate" will be released as a separate publication. Of course, some joke comics and satirical cartoons will also be added appropriately."

However, after Huang Yulang left, he immediately planned to set up a new publishing house and no longer cooperate with Modern Publishing House. The only thing that made him regret was that 'Yulang Book Company' was registered.

However, when he invited several members of the creative team, Huang Yulang was inspired by everyone's bragging: "How about calling our new company Jade Emperor Publishing House?"

Everyone clapped their hands and made friends, and someone said: "This name is very domineering when you hear it. Huang Sheng's comics will be the overlord of Xiangjiang in the future, so Huang Sheng will naturally be the Jade Emperor in the comics world!"

"Ha ha!"

Huang Yulang said proudly: "This is the sixth time I have started a business. After each failed venture, I have become more and more courageous! At present, the comics industry in Xiangjiang is gradually recovering, and the local comics have a tendency to surpass Riman, so this venture , will definitely be a success. At present, the sales volume of "Little Rascal" has reached 3 copies, as long as we quietly set up another publishing house, we can completely undertake this sales volume."

"That's right! We are the creative team. Once we set up another company, those people from Modern Publishing House will have to go back to their own places! At that time, we will be competitors of Modern Publishing House. As long as we maintain quality in the later stage, we may not Just can't compare to their weekly magazine sales."

"That's right! All the publicity, distribution and other channels that Modern Publishing House has done before have been transferred to our new publishing house in disguise!"

The more the group discusses, the more they feel that new hope is beckoning!
People in these creative teams always think that Modern Publishing House enjoys business of hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, or even millions of Hong Kong dollars, just with an investment of tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, which is a huge profit!
And the creative team worked hard, and finally had to hand over the general profits. What's even worse is that Modern Publishing House occupies various departments of the company and does not leave, which makes Huang Yulang, the president, sometimes helpless.

The soul of the comic "Little Rascal" is Huang Yulang. As long as Huang Yulang goes to that publishing house, readers will buy the books of that publishing house. This is the reason why Huang Yulang rebelled frequently.

Of course, Huang Yulang's personality will bring him all kinds of troubles in the future, even jail time.

It can be said that he is indomitable, and it can also be said that he is arrogant!
