    After two or three days of adjustments, Chen Ze's time difference was finally almost adjusted.  By now, he has basically adapted to the American schedule.  The publishing house that invited Chen Ze and Lin Lan to the United States seemed to be aware of this situation. Early this morning, they sent someone to visit and brought Chen Ze and Lin Lan to their publishing house's headquarters in New York.  The publishing house that Chen Ze and others are cooperating with this time is Lando Book House, one of the three major publishing houses in the United States. This publishing group has eight publishing houses, targeting popular novels, social sciences, business non-fiction, and high-end books.  Literary works, etc., it is not only one of the largest publishing houses in the United States, but also a well-known publishing group in the entire world.  In recent years, due to the rapid development of the domestic comics industry in the United States, Lando Book House has expanded its business scope to include comic books. It not only publishes and distributes local comics in the United States, but also pays attention to the introduction of overseas comic copyrights.  But in the past, their comics were mainly based on American cartoonists and Western European comics. In Asia, they also introduced comics like Li Ming from China. Unfortunately, the response in the United States and the West was average.  For this reason, Lando Bookstore temporarily gave up the introduction of comic copyrights from China and even the entire Eastern world. They believed that the gap between China and the United States in terms of thinking patterns and behavioral habits was too great, and China's excellent comics were not treated well by Americans.  See.  Until recent years, comics in the United States and the West have been in a sluggish state. There has been a shortage of new excellent comics and cartoonists, and the entire Western comics industry has been eating away at its past achievements.  Under this circumstance, they turned their attention to the East again, hoping to find comics and cartoonists in the East to break this dilemma.  At this time, they noticed Chen Ze.  Chen Ze’s talent has been demonstrated in comic creation over the years.  It made them think that maybe Chen Ze would be a cartoonist who could become popular in the West.  Therefore, after evaluating the value of all Chen Ze's comics and his entire person, they took the initiative to contact Lin Lan's new animation magazine, hoping to cooperate.  So.  Then there was this trip to the United States for Chen Ze and Lin Lan.  "Mr. Chen, Mr. Smith from our group is already waiting for you and Miss Lin Lan in his office. He asked me to take you and Lin Lan there as soon as possible." In a black Mercedes-Benz car speeding on New York Avenue, a man  The blond, blue-eyed man in his thirties said to Chen Ze and Lin Lan beside him.  But what is different from his typical Western appearance is that he actually speaks pure Chinese now.  Yes.  Quite pure. If Chen Ze and Lin Lan had covered their eyes, they would never have imagined that the person speaking would be a pure American.  This person’s name is George Johnson, and he is the person responsible for entertaining Chen Ze and Lin Lan at Lando Bookstore this time.  Because he had studied abroad in China for ten years and spoke Chinese quite well, he was sent here.  "Really? We also want to see Mr. Smith soon and talk to him about this cooperation." Chen Ze nodded after hearing what George said.  This Mr. Smith is the person in charge of the comic copyright publishing business of Lando Book House. For him to personally meet Chen Ze, it can be seen that Lando Book House attaches great importance to Chen Ze.  After all, although Chen Ze is not well-known in the United States, he is currently the most popular cartoonist in China and even the entire Eastern world.  Chen Ze is also aware of Smith’s status in Random House.  I know that if my comics want to open the door to the Western world, then his character can be said to be quite key.  "Mr. Chen, don't worry. We will arrive at the Lando Bookstore headquarters in about ten minutes." George looked at Chen Ze. He seemed to have something else to say, but when the words came to his lips several times, he swallowed again.  Went back.  "What's wrong, Mr. George, if you have any questions, you can just ask." Chen Ze said with a smile.  He discovered George’s behavior. In his impression, the United States and Westerners as a whole can say whatever they want.  And the George in front of him actually showed this unique Eastern expression, coupled with his proficient Chinese.  It really made Chen Ze wonder if this guy was a Chinese with a Western appearance, otherwise how could he be like this?  "Since Mr. Chen asked, I will say it. Actually, I have a small request." George looked at Chen Ze and said, "I particularly like your comics "Naruto" and "Slam Dunk". Can you  You can’t sign it for me.” As he said that, George actually took out two books from the other side of the car.  One is a stand-alone book of "Slam Dunk", and the other is a stand-alone book of "Naruto".  And these two books are actually in Chinese.    After hearing what George said, Chen Zexian was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the person in Lando Bookstore in front of him would be a comic fan of his, and he was a little stunned here for a moment.  Lin Lan was actually a little dazed, but as someone who had studied in the United States, she knew that with the continuous growth of China's economy, a group of Westerners who like Chinese and Eastern culture have appeared in the United States and the entire Western world.  This George, who can speak Chinese and also likes to read Chen Ze’s comics, is obviously one of the representatives.  Seeing that Chen Ze was still stunned, Lin Lan quickly poked him, which made Chen Ze react.  Chen Ze smiled sheepishly at George, and then said: "No problem, I am very happy to be liked by Mr. George." After saying that, Chen Ze took the pen and two books handed over by George and signed them.  Put down his name.  When he first debuted and held a signing event for "Slam Dunk", Chen Ze had been extremely nervous to practice his signature, so as not to make his comic fans think that his handwriting was too bad.  But things are different now. So far, Chen Ze has held several autograph sessions, large and small, and he has already practiced signing autographs well and quickly.  In two or three strokes, Chen Ze’s name appeared on two of George’s comic books.  George is obviously not trying to please Chen Ze, but he really likes Chen Ze’s comics.  After Chen Ze signed his name, he looked at the signature on the book with a happy expression on his face.  "Mr. Chen, I absolutely believe that your comics will become popular in the United States." George looked at Chen Ze and said firmly.  More than ten minutes later, the Mercedes-Benz carrying Chen Ze and Lin Lan finally arrived at its destination - Lando Bookstore Headquarters Building!  This Landau Bookstore is indeed one of the most prestigious publishing houses in the West, and the entire building is quite impressive.  Chen Ze sat in the car and looked through the window. This building was built in the center of New York, where land is at a premium, and was dozens of stories high.  The exterior is inlaid with floor-to-ceiling glass, which looks very majestic under the sunlight.  "Mr. Chen, Miss Lin, let me take you up. Mr. Smith is waiting for you two on the 67th floor." George got out of the car first, and while talking, he led Chen Ze and Lin Lan into the building.  , walking towards the elevator entrance.  After entering the building, Chen Ze looked at the decoration inside the building. There were many books and paintings on the walls. Compared with the appearance, it had a bit more cultural flavor, showing the connotation of it being a cultural publishing house.  "As expected of a company that has been established for almost a hundred years, it is a perfect combination of style and cultural heritage." Looking at the decorations inside, Chen Ze couldn't help but whisper to Lin Lan beside him.  "Enterprises in the United States and the West have this tradition. Our country's market economy started relatively late. I believe that in another fifty years, there will definitely be enterprises with such profound cultural heritage." Lin Lan was obviously more interested.  Learn about American companies.  “That’s right, I also believe that by then, our magazine will definitely become a magazine that will not lose to the Lando Group.” Chen Ze said with a smile.  After getting on the elevator, we reached the sixty-seventh floor very quickly.  George took Chen Ze and Lin Lan out of the elevator and brought them to a large door. He knocked on the door, and a burst of pure English came from inside.  After the sound of English ended, George also started to speak, and he also spoke in English.  Although Chen Ze didn't understand the conversation between the two, he could guess that the person speaking inside should be Mr. Smith.  With a creak, the door was opened.  Chen Ze quickly looked inside, wanting to see what Mr. Smith looked like.  In the end, Chen Ze was stunned because the person who opened the door was actually a woman in her twenties.  This woman also has blond hair and blue eyes, and is quite beautiful.  "This, this is Mr. Smith? No way!" Chen Ze said in his heart.  PS: Three updates today
