When Chen Ming arrived, the sadness on Su Rou's face dissipated a lot.
Huang Xia responded with a smile: "Mr. Chen Ming, long time no see."
The smile was somewhat forced.
Chen Ming was even more confused as to what happened to make both of them look worried.
After Chen Ming sat down in the room, Su Rou naturally took Chen Ming's hand. The warmth in her palm made Su Rou's face soften a lot again.
Huang Xia still looked listless.
Chen Ming frowned slightly: "What's wrong?"
Huang Xia poured a cup of hot water for Chen Ming, glanced at Su Rou, Su Rou nodded, and then Huang Xia said: "There is a small problem with the comic website."
Comic website?
Chen Ming's eyes flashed with confusion.
see the situation,
Huang Xia sighed: "After terminating the contract with Yidiandian Comics, I found the second largest comic website in China, and after talking with the director of their website, I signed a new contract."
"To save trouble, I also gave up the physical printing rights of comics to this website, which is Haoyinmanke."
"However, a love comic serialized by Qingrou Comics on Yidiandian.com was accused of plagiarism and infringement. All our previous comics have been removed from the shelves."
Speaking of which,
Chen Ming interrupted: ""My Hero Father" has also been removed from the shelves?"
Huang Xia hummed softly.
Chen Ming didn't react much and motioned for her to continue.
Then,
The look of self-blame on Huang Xia's face became even stronger: "Yidiandian Comics Network fined us a lot of money, and also issued notices to the entire industry."
"Plagiarism itself is a shameful act, so we signed a contract with the new website, but they wanted to forcefully terminate the contract."
"Haoyin Comic also said that they will not physically print our comics."
Huang Xia paused slightly.
This was a mistake on her part!
Chen Ming held Su Rou's hand and thought for a moment: "Really plagiarized?"
obtained,
Still Huang Xia’s friend.
actually,
Plagiarism is easy to detect, but Huang Xia has been busy terminating the contract with the old website and signing the contract with the new website, so she has relaxed her supervision of the comics in the company.
"I have fired all the people who plagiarised, but the impact of this incident is very bad. It is impossible to maintain the contract for the new website in the future."
Not only that,
Physical printing also came to nothing.
Chen Ming fell silent. Plagiarism is a very bad thing in China.
If it were on earth,
If you plagiarize something, you may be sued and compensated at most.
But in China,
Plagiarism is equivalent to putting a bad label on your whole person. It is basically impossible to engage in related industries in the future.
originally,
Qingrou Comics gained a lot of fame with "My Hero Father", and many comic fans began to pay attention to this new comic company, but after this incident, no one cared.
after all,
No one can guarantee whether your next comic will still be plagiarized...
This is a hassle!
Su Rou said softly: "Sister Huang Xia and I have been discussing for a long time, but we still haven't come up with any good ideas, so I want to ask you if you have any ideas."
Chen Ming rubbed his chin, thinking in his mind.
Huang Xia on the side blamed herself and said: "This is my problem. After this incident, I will take the initiative to resign."
Hearing the words,
Chen Ming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Sister Huang Xia, you can't leave. Who will manage Qingrou Comics if you leave?"
Su Rou likes to draw, but doesn't know much about management.
so,
Gentle and gentle childbirth is inseparable from Huang Xia.
Su Rou also helped: "Sister Huang Xia, this is just a small mistake, there is no need to blame yourself so much."
Small mistake?
Huang Xia smiled bitterly and shook her head.
This is no small mistake!
If it is not handled properly, Qingrou Comics will be ruined in the industry, which is equivalent to the bankruptcy of a huge company in a short period of time.
Although Su Rou may not lack this company, for Huang Xia, this is a major blow to her.
Thought for a moment.
Chen Ming hesitated to speak, but he still said: "There is a way you can try."
Huang Xia became excited instantly.
"What can I do?"
“Celebrity guarantee!”
Chen Ming spoke slowly.
These four simple words stunned Su Rou and Huang Xia.
Chen Ming explained: "To put it simply, it means asking some well-known people to vouch for each of our next comics."
"We guarantee that our future comics will be original and there will be no more plagiarism!"
This is actually the same as advertising and asking celebrities to endorse you.
The more famous a person is, the more credible his words will be.
Give a simple example.
When it comes to endorsing milk, do you think it is more credible for ordinary people to be the spokesperson, or for athletes to be the spokesperson?
Must be an athlete!
Because people with high reputations know that every word they say will have an impact on their fans.
so,
From a positive perspective, celebrities prefer to say positive words.
Chen Ming currently only thinks of this method.
Although he had experienced plagiarism controversy before, it was false after all. Chen Ming felt confident that he had not plagiarized, but that someone was slandering him.
But it's different now, the comics are really plagiarized.
This nature is completely different!
The next second,
Huang Xia's expression cooled down again: "Is there any celebrity who is willing to vouch for us now..."
Plagiarism is a black mark.
Everyone wants to stay away from each other when they meet, so who wouldn’t be afraid of death and come up to vouch for it?!
Especially,
Now the barrier between Middle Continent and Western Continent has been removed.
These resources from Central Continent are beginning to flow to Western Continent, which means that everything from Central Continent will flow into Western Continent, including comics.
Once you guarantee it, you will not be responsible to the people of Central Continent, but to the people of two continents.
The combined population of the two continents is nearly five billion.
If something happens to Qingrou Comic after its production, its reputation will be ruined on two continents.
The risk is too great!
There is no way anyone would be willing to take this risk.
Thinking of this, Huang Xia looked particularly depressed. In her opinion, Qingrou Comics might really be destroyed in her hands.
Su Rou looked straight at Chen Ming.
The smile on Chen Ming's face was warm, and his eyes showed no aversion at all.
"no!"
Su Rou said softly, as if she guessed what Chen Ming wanted to say.
Chen Ming rubbed Su Rou's little head and teased: "What? Do you think I can't be a guarantee because I'm not a famous person?"
Huang Xia was stunned for a moment.
Su Rou still shook her head firmly: "No."
In Su Rou's eyes, it was just a comic company. It would be gone if it was gone. It was not as important as Chen Ming's reputation.
Huang Xia came back to her senses and looked at Chen Ming with complicated eyes.
Chen Ming patted the back of Su Rou's hand: "I'll take care of this matter. You go help me plan the concert. Time is running out. It's almost the end of the month."
Su Rou said nothing, Chen Ming sighed: "Be obedient."
Immediately afterwards, Chen Ming looked at Huang Xia: "I will guarantee Qingrou Comics."
