Hong Kong Comic Master

Chapter 223: Secret Entry

"Mayong City?"

The small building of the association was very lively, with all kinds of people drinking and drinking, and the cups and plates were in a mess. It was really lively.

Outside the association, it was extremely quiet, and you could even hear the chirping of insects, which was in sharp contrast to the inside.

Ma Rongcheng, who was breathing alone outside the house, heard someone calling him from behind.

"Commissioner Shangguan?"

Ma Rongcheng turned around and was slightly surprised to find that the person who came was Shangguan Xiaobao.

After all, I have never spoken to him, so why would he want to find me?

"Hahaha, you don't have to be so polite. I'm a few years older than you. Call me brother and you won't suffer any loss!"

Shangguan Xiaobao came to Ma Rongcheng with a smile.

"How can that be done? I don't dare to do this!"

"What are you afraid of? Rongcheng, I have always been very optimistic about you!"

"Thank...thank you!"

Hearing this, Ma Rongcheng's alarm bells rang wildly in his heart. He felt that Shangguan Xiaobao had an ulterior motive for looking for him.

In fact, Mayongcheng’s feeling is right!

Less than two years after joining Yulang Company, Shangguan Xiaobao chose to part ways with Huang Yulang.

Later, Shangguan Xiaobao took the copyright of "Bruce Lee" to start a new business. With the support of the publisher Tongde Books and Newspapers and the printer Yousheng Printing Company, he founded the "Baer Painting Society".

Nowadays, the re-established "82 Weekly" can maintain sales of 50,000 copies by relying on the comics of "Bruce Lee", but it is not even ranked among the top five comic magazines in Hong Kong Island.

Although they will not die of hunger, they will not be able to achieve rapid development.

Therefore, recruiting troops and horses became Shangguan Xiaobao's top priority.

Unlike others, Shangguan Xiaobao is coming to the annual meeting this time to poach people.

At present, in addition to Li Wannian, there are four mainstays of the Second Dimension Magazine, namely Ma Rongcheng, He Zhiwen, Ao Youxiang and Feng Zhiming.

Among them, Shangguan Xiaobao is most optimistic about Mayongcheng.

What's more, Ma Rongcheng is also the senior brother in Li Wannian's imperial guard. If he can be taken away, he might also be able to take away a large number of Li Wannian's disciples and grandchildren.

"Why are you being polite? By the way, Rongcheng, are you satisfied with your current job?"

"Satisfied, of course satisfied!"

At this time, Ma Rongcheng had already guessed what the other party wanted to do, so he did not give the other party a chance to recruit him.

After all, since he became famous, he has never stopped recruiting him.

"Really? No matter how much money you make now, in the end you are just a part-time worker. How can you earn more if you are your own boss?"

"Be your own boss?"

"That's right! How about Rongcheng, think about it? If you come to our Bayer Painting Club, I will give you 20% of the shares!"

To be honest, this share is really quite a lot. After all, not all the shares of the Bayer Painting Society belong to Shangguan Xiaobao!

"Mr. Shangguan, you think highly of me!"

Ma Rongcheng grinned, but didn't see the slightest hint of heartbeat.

In fact, let alone Ma Rongcheng, he was not moved at all!

Don’t think that all capable people want to go out and work alone. After all, there are only a few people with an adventurous spirit.

The vast majority of people have the mentality of being content with being rich.

Now that I don’t have to worry about food or clothing, wouldn’t it be nice to just hang out like this?

Although Mayongcheng has also thought about going it alone, in an environment like Hong Kong Island, how much money can he make by going it alone?

Today, there is only one ACG magazine in Hong Kong, and no one is confident that they can survive the pressure of ACG.

By then, let alone making money, it will be considered good to be alive!

Look at Shangguan Xiaobao in front of you. He has worked hard for a whole year, but in the end he may not earn much more than himself?

In this case, why should I take a detour?

Seeing Ma Rongcheng's appearance, Shangguan Xiaobao knew that the other party was not tempted.

But Shangguan Xiaobao also knew that he didn't expect his words to persuade Ma Rongcheng easily. How could it be that easy?

He just planted a seed in Ma Rongcheng's heart. If Ma Rongcheng is tempted in the future, he will be the first choice!

Although the conversation broke down, neither of them had any emotional changes. After a while, the two of them returned to the hall one after another.

At this time, the hall was still very lively, especially at Li Wannian's place, where there were always a lot of people around.

Ma Rongcheng returned to his seat and sat down. Before he could pick up the chopsticks, He Zhiwen quietly touched them.

"What are you doing?"

"I should ask you this, what do you want to do?"

"What's the meaning?"

Seeing He Zhiwen's serious look, Ma Rongcheng was a little confused.

"What did you and Shangguan Xiaobao talk about just now?"

"Did you see it?"

"Yes, I just went to the toilet and saw you talking. Is he trying to win over you?"

He Zhiwen's expression was extremely serious at this time, staring directly at Ma Rongcheng, as if if Ma Rongcheng said something wrong, he would immediately execute him on the spot.

"Hey, that's right, he did try to woo me, but I rejected him!"

Until Ma Rongcheng finished speaking, He Zhiwen still observed Ma Rongcheng's expression for a long time, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "What you said is the truth, you didn't lie to me!"

"Nonsense, of course I didn't lie to you!"

"Ma Rongcheng, I'm warning you. I can't lock up others for betraying the teacher, but you absolutely can't! You are the head of the Imperial Guard. If you betray the teacher, the impact will be too great!"

The second-in-command of an organization has left. This is a devastating blow to the organization.

"Don't worry, Awen. I, Ma Rongcheng, am not an ungrateful person. I have no reason to leave the Imperial Guards!"

"Do you mean you have a reason to leave?" He Zhiwen caught the loophole in Ma Rongcheng's words.

"Get lost!"

On the other side, after an unknown amount of time, Li Wannian's place finally became deserted. Li Wannian didn't know how much he drank, and he felt dizzy.

After leaving the table, Li Wannian went to the balcony to get some fresh air, and He Zhiwen came over at this time.

"Teacher, Shangguan Xiaobao tried to win over Ma Rongcheng, but Ma Rongcheng refused!"

"Okay, I know!"

Li Wannian leaned back in his chair, his eyes blurred.

"Teacher, don't you have anything... to say?"

"What? Rongcheng is a smart man, how could he leave? What's more, why do you think you saw the conversation between the two so easily? It was obviously Shangguan Xiaobao's deliberate act, just to make me suspicious of Rongcheng!"

"I understand, teacher!"

"No, you don't understand. You said Shangguan Xiaobao deliberately let you see this scene, for what?"

"Why?"

"Of course it was a sneak attack!"

"Sneak attack?"

At this point, Li Wannian suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the sky full of stars and said faintly: "Yes, so that he can get closer to the real target!"

"Who is the real target?"
