In the festive atmosphere of the New Year, the "Sailor Moon" manga quietly ended. His finish doesn't give the reader the same amazing feeling as its gorgeous painting style and the setting at the beginning.

Because after each tear-jerking sacrifice, the protagonist's companion is eventually saved. The happy ending is good, but it also lowers the tears of the story.

He Chen remembered that when he watched it for the first time, he shed tears for the sacrifices of Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Mars, and was healed by the Moon Hare, who finally summoned everyone's power to save the world;

He Chen suddenly felt that his tears were flowing in vain. A bridge, no matter how bloody it is, is still fascinating if it is used well, but no matter how good a bridge is, it will make people feel aesthetic fatigue if it appears repeatedly in a story.

And, not to mention, by the end of the day, the little fox of "Kanon" had just left, and countless readers were still immersed in the endless sadness, unable to extricate themselves.

The contrast between the two is so strong, and I am even more indifferent to this happy ending that I have seen countless times - no matter how many people the protagonist sacrifices at the beginning, he will always be resurrected in the end.

However, how they hope that Makoto can also be resurrected like the group of local tyrant players in "Sailor Moon" who brought their own resurrection coins!

It's a pity that even this little wish is not fulfilled by the porters.

The wicked porters would rather be whipped and corpses for 100,000 floors than swear to death than give them a good hope.

However, "Sailor Moon" is not a plot to win, its selling point is the gorgeous style. and a magical girl full of fantasies.

From this point of view. Sailor Moon was an extreme success.

Whether it's Tsukino Hare, Ami Mizuno, Rei Hino, Makoto Kino, Minako Aino. or Tianwang Yao, Sea King Man, Hades Xue Nai, and Tu Meng Hotaru, all of which left a very deep impression on readers, and their surrounding sales were a hot mess.

Although I can't remember what the story is about, the heroic posture of several magical girls is deeply imprinted in the reader's mind.

Especially Tu Meng Hotaru, as if abandoned by the god of happiness, the extremely tragic life experience is in stark contrast to the extremely happy Moon Hare, who is pampered by countless people.

Countless fans can hardly see a glimmer of light in the darkness of this one. But the girl who is still strong is deeply fascinated.

Under He Chen's deliberate guidance, Meng was given a new meaning, which is a heartfelt love for certain people or things.

"Sailor Moon" is over, but the magical girl will be passed on forever.

……

After the New Year, in the climax triggered by Makoto, "Kanon" was in the limelight for a while.

If you want to say how popular this is, it is obvious from the supermarket - the sales of paper towels in the supermarket have skyrocketed since the launch of "Kanon". That's nearly double the price over the same period!

Originally, He Chen launched a theme. can bring fire to a theme.

As this year's emotional drama, according to He Chen's practice in the past, it should trigger a round of romance dramas to follow the trend.

It's a pity that the reality is like a tsundere little girl, you let her go this way, but she wants to stride forward in the opposite direction.

The ratings of romance dramas have plummeted, and romance novels and comics, especially those related to campus love, have achieved dismal results.

Even some god-level authors and cartoonists who used to be known for writing about campus romance have also been affected by the extreme strictness, compared to before, it is simply a heaven and an earth.

A qiē romance work that follows the trend has almost been wiped out, and even Zhuo Ning'er, who He Chen is most optimistic about, wants to try this theme and express his hidden feelings with the help of comics. But the proud, affectionate work was devastated by reality, and she even doubted herself, can she still create a beautiful story?

In the face of this abnormal phenomenon, some fans have said a word.

"After watching "Kanon", I am not interested in any other campus love and romance themes. I'd rather watch Kanon a hundred times than look at those sour, greasy and crooked stuff that I love to come and go all day long!"

"The real deep love is not the three words 'I love you'! But, even if you have forgotten me, I will still use my actions to make you feel that warm love!"

Although fans persevered every day, they scolded the porters in the comment section for being cold-blooded and ruthless.

But every time the "Kanon" manga is updated, I will rush in to watch it, and every time the animation is updated, I will always rush up and make a lot of spoilers in the barrage - and then be banned.

This is a group of arrogant readers, the harder they scold, the deeper they love.

In their eyes, Kanon is not just a story, it is a world, a world of existence.

They believe in this world, and they believe that Makoto really exists, so they can't breathe after seeing Makoto leave.

Chihiro acquired the three companies of Yuexia, Renxin, and Aiman, and after the reorganization of Qianman Entertainment, its first work was aimed at He Chen's "Kanon".

Their ambitions are obvious, although the overall strength of Qianxun Group far exceeds that of Tianman, and it can rank among the top three in the entire IT industry in China.

But the Qianman Entertainment they established is just a newcomer in this industry - Yuexia, Renxin, and Aiman have basically been left with an empty shell since that accident.

Chihiro bought them out to take advantage of what little name they had left, no matter how small they were, and to gain access to their resources in the industry.

For enterprises, the fastest development is acquisition. Whether it is Tianman, Shengshi or Tianyu, it is the target that Chihiro has chosen.

However, He Chen expressed his attitude that Tianman was his Tianman, and he would not let anyone interfere.

And Shengshi and Tianyu are now developing well, and the asking price is extremely high, so Chihiro has not negotiated for a long time. It just so happened that the three of them had an accident, and the three of them together had a position in the industry that was not weaker than that of Tianyu, as well as enough skilled employees in the industry, and after the accident, the value fell again and again.

So after talking to the three for a few months, Chihiro got a complete piece of the animation industry at an almost free price a few years ago - which is equivalent to the admission qualification certificate for the animation industry.

Qianman relies on the powerful Chihiro, and with enough capital, his development can go out of the ordinary.

As a newcomer in the industry, the best way to quickly gain fame and status is to challenge the industry leader, and on the side of the animation industry, it is natural to be Tianman.

Only by defeating Tianman from the front and above board can they replace Tianman and complete their plan to ascend to the sky from a newcomer to a hegemon.

Therefore, they chose to compete with He Chen with comics from the front.

Although they are ambitious, they are not brain-dead.

First, comics are a creative product, no more than others, as long as the story is good, anyone has the possibility of beating He Chen.

Second, this competition itself is a gimmick, at the beginning of their establishment, what they needed most was a very eye-catching gimmick to increase their popularity for Qianman, and He Chen was of course the best choice.

Regardless of whether they win or lose, readers will always go to see what they want to challenge He Chen's works, and as long as they have this idea, Qianman's goal has been achieved.

Third, He Chen's new work "Kanon" is on fire recently, which is a romance theme, and even makes people say "Under "Kanon", there is no more campus love!".

And the three companies they acquired are mostly women's frequency works, and women's frequency works are precisely famous for their romance themes.

To sum up, no matter how you think about it, this is an extremely beneficial thing for Qianman, so they will contribute to this behind the scenes.

Although there has been a large loss of comic book authors, the editors are still there.

They still have an eye for romance themes, so Chihiro spends a lot of money to dig up the extremely iconic romance manga authors that have been lost from Tianyu and Shengshi - all they hate is the style of those three companies, and now that they have a new boss and offer themselves such a high price, of course they won't mind.

Then I asked several people to draw romance themes, and finally chose a work from which the editors thought it seemed to be able to compete with "Kanon", so it was launched as the signature work of Chihiro Creation Station.

As Chihiro, who started with search, their advertising capabilities have exploded for hundreds of streets.

Any search for "kanon", "porter", "He Chen", "Tianman", "comics", etc., and a small extra line of "special recommendation" above the first entry is their Qianman website.

He Chen has no way to do this, after all, their own channels can be said to be channel sharing within the enterprise, and they can't be considered cheating.

He Chen himself often uses the DM number to promote Tianman's comics, animations, games, peripherals, etc.

To blame, he can only blame the user usage difference of his DM, and Chihiro search is too far.

At least Chihiro is very authentic and does not directly block Tianman from the search list.

He Chen's work uses an English name, and Qianman's work also uses an English name.

He Chen's is related to memory, and Qianman's is also related to memory—their work is called "Lethe", one of the five rivers of Hades in Greek mythology, the River of Oblivion. Legend has it that the souls of the dead must drink this water to forget about the mundane things, which sounds like Meng Po soup.

When He Chen first looked at it, he wondered if the Chinese talisman was connected to the Greek underworld, and Meng Po used the water in this forgotten river to boil Meng Po soup.

It looks like a work that follows the trend, but after He Chen watched it, he found that this work is completely different from what is expressed in "Kanon".

"kanon" focuses on several girls, while in "Lethe" the focus is on the male protagonist.

This is a very interesting story, the painting style is fresh, and He Chen liked this work as soon as he saw it. (To be continued......)
