Chapter 556: Dragon Ball Slash?
After receiving Ayano Iida's answer, Shuichi Miyamoto's face immediately began to turn pale, even if he had expected Ayano Iida's answer.
In addition to the opinions of readers, the opinions of the editors are also very important in determining whether the work will continue to be serialized or cut in half, because whether the work has potential is still worth debating, so it is basically decided by voting, and the minority obeys the majority.
In the past, it was decided by 20 votes, but today's meeting is a little more special, and Shueisha's manga "Big Three" also have one vote each, adding up to a total of 23 votes, as long as more than half of them voted in favor, then it can be said that it is almost cold......
Shuichi Miyamoto also knew that his work was more auspicious this time, but deep down he still couldn't help but have a hint of luck in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Give me another chance! I will definitely be able to create a big surprise in next week's draft!"
Hearing this, the editors only frowned slightly, and the deputy editor-in-chief of Kitahara also spoke at this time: "Indeed, as the editor-in-chief of Iida said, the plot of "Black Wind Warrior" has not had the slightest interest and a little breakthrough in several consecutive episodes, and Mr. Shuichi Miyamoto, your editor-in-charge Kobayashi, has also used such an answer in previous meetings. ”
Hearing this, Miyamoto Shuichi's face turned completely pale, and the whole person became depressed, sitting on the chair weakly on all fours, Miyamoto Shuichi knew that after the deputy editor-in-chief of Kitahara expressed his opinion, the flame of hope in his heart had been completely extinguished.
After all, among the editors of Shueisha, except for Shuji Matsumoto, the influence of the deputy editor-in-chief of Kitahara is the strongest.
Naoto Kobayashi, the editor in charge of Miyamoto Shuichi's side, was also silent, apparently losing confidence in him.
"If there is no doubt, let's go ahead and start voting!
The deputy editor-in-chief of Kitahara spoke again, and the rest of the editors looked at each other, and through the exchange of sight, they quickly came to the same conclusion, and they all spoke: "We also have the same view as the deputy editor-in-chief of Kitahara, and we voted in favor." ”
There were no superfluous twists and turns, and conclusions were quickly drawn.
All the editors made the choice to cut it in half, including Naoto Kobayashi, the manga editor in charge of Shuichi Miyamoto, who also voted in favor.
"According to the results, the "Black Wind Warrior" manga is decided, and Miyamoto-sensei please give the manga ending next week. ”
Shuji Matsumoto spoke lightly, and Miyamoto Shuichi, who was the party concerned, looked a little dazed, and he didn't know if he had listened or not.
When all the cartoonists present saw this scene, they did not have any sense of ridicule for Miyamoto Shui, but deeply sympathized with each other, and felt a strong sense of desolation, because maybe the next person would be their turn.
There are very few manga artists who can finish their manga naturally on Weekly Jump as they wish, and it is not easy for manga artists to do this, after all, reality is not the world of manga, and there is competition everywhere. In addition to the hard work of the manga artist, it also requires luck.
Even the "Grim Reaper", who is a phenomenal comic, still did not avoid being cut in half in the end, who dares to say that it will not be their turn next?
Reality is often cruel, and no one can say what will happen in the next second.
Even Wang Hao began to get nervous, after all, the recent situation of "Dragon Ball" can be said to be very bad, and it is really not optimistic.
Although he has infinite confidence in the future of this comic, there is still no way to change the current bad situation, which is very helpless.
You must know that in his previous life, before Akira Toriyama created "Dragon Ball", he had already created the famous super popular manga "Aralei", which gained countless fans in one leap, and it can be said that Akira Toriyama became a manga master-level character.
It stands to reason that Akira Toriyama, who has gained such a huge popularity, will definitely have smooth sailing in his next work, but in this case, Dragon Ball's early results are still not optimistic, and they are all ranked last in the voting, and even almost suffered a manga halving crisis.
Even Akira Toriyama, who has climbed to the pinnacle of the comic industry, is like this, not to mention Wang Hao, who is now a rookie cartoonist through and through.
Compared with Akira Toriyama's situation, Wang Hao's side is several times worse, after all, Akira Toriyama still has many fans who have accumulated a long time ago at that time, and the situation is completely incomparable.
However, the only consolation is that Dragon Ball's ranking this week is a little better than before, although the ranking is not much higher, but at least it is a little better, which also gives Wang Hao some psychological comfort.
It's a pity that there is still a strong sense of tension in his heart, and the serial meeting continues as usual and quickly, and time is slowly passing, and three more comic works have been announced to be cut in half.
After a while, as "Night Knight" announced the continuation of serialization, Shota Yamada, who is a manga artist, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, wiped a cold sweat with his hands, and sat down on the chair with a sense of relief.
However, Wang Hao's face was bloodless at this time, because the ranking of "Dragon Ball" happened to be in front of "Night Knight", which meant that it was his turn now!
Judging from the current situation, "Dragon Ball" is likely to face a halving!
"Okay, I'm sure everyone is familiar with the next work we are going to discuss, and it also caused a big sensation at the beginning, that is, "Dragon Ball" by the god master, everyone is welcome to give all kinds of opinions. ”
The first to speak was Shuji Matsumoto, and as soon as he spoke, it immediately began to be a little noisy below.
For everyone present, Dragon Ball is quite controversial, both from the perspective of manga and manga artists.
For a while, the editors began to whisper among themselves, but no one stood up to speak.
The surrounding discussions clearly fell into Wang Hao's ears, like a sharp sword in his heart, he had never felt that time would be so tormented, and he was a little chilled all over his body, as if seconds were like years.
His whole person seemed to have suddenly entered an endless black space, walking and walking, but he never saw a little light. But he didn't give up, because if he fell here, all his previous efforts would be a joke.
Although that being said, it is really tiring to persevere, and there is always a voice full of temptation whispering in my ears, as if to say give up, give up this senseless struggle, and move on is just a waste of time......
At this moment, the warm touch came from the back of his hand for some time, Wang Hao suddenly came back to his senses, looked up and saw Iida Ayano's trusting gaze, and suddenly felt a burst of shame.
Anyone can lose confidence in this "child", but only as a creator, he can't, because it is his own willfulness that will make "Dragon Ball" come to this strange world! Even if the whole world is doubting it, he should unswervingly trust this "child"!!
