Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 262 Long time no see
The Two-dimensional Animation Town located in Akihabara, Tokyo, is crowded with people every day. The dense passenger flow and booming business make the surrounding businesses very envious.

However, even so, the animation city's revenue still fell short of expectations.

"Manager Zhong, this is the store's sales in the first three quarters of this year, an increase of 21% compared to last year..."

“Why has growth slowed down this year?”

Compared to the bustle of people downstairs, the store manager's office upstairs seemed a bit empty, with only a few people there.

Zhong Chuhong's voice echoed in the office, causing waves of reverberations that made everyone present afraid to breathe.

"Firstly, because three comic shops and game stores opened on this street this year, the number of competitors has increased, and secondly, because the opening of Tokyo Disneyland has dispersed the customer flow!"

"Don't look for external reasons, look for your own problems. Since I came here today, I can clearly feel that your service is perfunctory, the clerk is sloppy, and the lack of activities is enough to show that you, the store manager, are not attentive enough!"

Zhong Chuhong was wearing a gray uniform and black-rimmed glasses today. She looked very OL. At this time, she was seriously criticizing a store manager who was nodding and bowing.

The store manager who knows how to bow like this is a neon person at first glance.

In order to allow the animation city to develop better in Neon, Ye Rongyi, the former general manager of the Neon branch, hired a Neon person as the store manager.

However, although this kind of selection can help Two-dimensional Animation City quickly localize, the people selected by Ye Rongyi themselves have limited abilities.

Originally, after Ye Rongyi left, Zhong Chuhong was unwilling to touch the people promoted by Ye Rongyi, but now it seems that she has to do so.

That's right, now Ye Rongyi has resigned from Two-dimensional's Neon Branch, and now it is Zhong Chuhong who serves as the general manager of the branch.

When Zhong Chuhong first arrived here, Ye Rongyi seemed to regard the branch as his own territory.

Originally, Zhong Chuhong was not willing to argue with him, but later she discovered that Ye Rongyi's hands and feet in the branch were not clean, but he had always hidden it well so that no one could catch him.

Therefore, Zhong Chuhong spent two years starting from the grassroots level in his spare time, constantly wooing middle and lower-level managers, and learning various businesses of Neon Branch.

Finally, after getting familiar with it this year, I successfully asked the head office to transfer him.

Before that, the company was not unable to transfer him, but there was no suitable successor. If Ye Rongyi was transferred rashly, Neon Branch would probably fall into chaos.

This is also the result that Ye Rongyi wants. Since he came to Neon, anyone who has the ability will be suppressed by Ye Rongyi and not given the opportunity to access the core business.

And this is also the reason why Zhong Chuhong was targeted by Ye Rongyi as soon as he came to Neon.

Unfortunately, Ye Rongyi underestimated Zhong Chuhong's learning ability. In just two years, Zhong Chuhong completely mastered Neon's core business under Ye Rongyi's blockade.

"Smimasai (sorry)!"

Faced with Zhong Chuhong's aggressiveness, the store manager made no excuses. He had nothing but a bow and apology.

Maybe for neon people like them, I have already bowed and apologized. Isn’t it rare enough?

"General Manager, it's time!"

Just when Zhong Chuhong wanted to continue training, the secretary on the side came to her ear and whispered in her ear.

Hearing this, Zhong Chuhong glanced at the diamond watch on his wrist, his face changed slightly, and then he closed the report.

"Let's get here first today. It's never easy to be a store manager! Just wish yourself well!"

"Hey, I will definitely work harder in the future!"

Not long after, the store manager let out a sigh of relief as he watched Zhong Chuhong drive away. Although he didn't know what happened to Zhong Chuhong, he was content to avoid being scolded.

"Store manager? What's next?"

"You guys go to work and I'll go back to the office and take care of things!"

Just like that, the store manager who returned to the office took out a comic book from the hidden corner of the drawer and continued to read happily.On the other side, Zhong Chuhong, who was riding in the car, was sitting in the back seat and took out her makeup mirror to touch up her makeup.

Miyuki Kobayashi, the secretary sitting in the co-pilot, is a neon girl who has just graduated from college. She admires Zhong Chuhong very much.

In Neon, especially in the 80s, due to the rapid economic development, more and more Neon women walked out of their homes, entered the society, and entered the workplace. However, workplace discrimination was not uncommon.

Therefore, they admire women who can make a name for themselves in the workplace.

However, Zhong Chuhong, who is usually bare-faced, pays great attention to dressing up today, obviously going to see her lover.

This made her very curious, who was the boss whom her manager fell in love with?

"Wannian, this way!"

At the crowded exit of the airport, Zhong Chuhong saw Li Wannian coming out from a distance and waved to him.

Although she just went back to Hong Kong Island this summer, it has been more than two months since then.

Therefore, when Li Wannian came to her, Zhong Chuhong seemed to ignore the eyes of the people around her and threw herself into Li Wannian's arms.

"Chu Hong, what are you..."

"Okay, let's get in the car first!"

After realizing that he had lost his composure, Zhong Chuhong quickly let go of Li Wannian and straightened the messy hair on his forehead.

"Well, let's go!"

So Zhong Chuhong hugged Li Wannian's arm and walked out.

Miyuki Kobayashi saw Zhong Chuhong as happy as a little girl in love. That bright smile from the heart made her feel for the first time Zhong Chuhong's true heart.

After getting into the car, Li Wannian and Zhong Chuhong sat side by side in the back seat.

"Are you a senior this year?"

"Yes, Neon has been here for almost four years in the blink of an eye!"

Looking at the familiar scenery outside the window, Zhong Chuhong lamented how quickly time passed.

"Now you have to go to school and manage the company. Are you busy?"

"Fortunately, there are not many classes in school for my senior year. My main focus now is on the company."

“As a general manager, don’t do everything yourself!”

"I will. Wait, why do I always think you mean something else?"

Zhong Chuhong suddenly came back to her senses. Li Wannian's words obviously meant that she wanted her to train an heir so that he could go back.

"Hahaha, what bad thoughts can I have?" Facing Zhong Chuhong's suspicious gaze, Li Wannian laughed.

"Do you really want me to go back?"

"That's natural. I can't live without you!"

Li Wannian's emotional words plucked the string in Zhong Chuhong's heart.

However, Zhong Chuhong adjusted quickly and recovered quickly: "Who knows if you say this to every girl?"

"This...how is this possible?" Li Wannian felt embarrassed and felt a drop of sweat on his forehead, which stayed down his cheeks.
