It was three o'clock in the morning, and Lear was wearing a turtleneck, and with a flick of his fingers, he landed on the keyboard of his notebook with a slight sound.

The coffee next to him was already cold, but he didn't dislike it, he took a sip of it, the cold and bitterness made his tired brain suddenly sober. He looked at the text on the screen, which was the revenue statement of a webtoon company.

Of course, Lear did not use any legal means to obtain these materials. He didn't bother to spend money on investigative companies, and he trusted his own abilities more than those companies.

When a person is not involved in a certain industry, his understanding of an industry is always one-sided. What the webtoon industry is like at the moment is still to be concluded after some investigation.

Lear's method of investigation was also straightforward - directly hacked into all webtoon companies.

The results of the investigation were much more confusing than he had thought. Many of these companies have only 10,000 yuan to register on the website of the industrial and commercial department, and many of them have single-digit employees. The financial statements are also messed up, and at first glance, they are a leather bag company that is trying to deceive angel venture capital funds, and there is no need to continue the investigation at all.

The only one that's slightly better is the "Become a Manga Artist" site. However, there are various problems with "becoming a manga artist". First of all, his headquarters is located in the third ring road of Shangjing, and the monthly rent and utility bills are not small. Coupled with the expenditure of employees' salaries, the total expenditure is more than 500,000 yuan a month.

And compared to the high expenses, it is a pitiful income. The million-selling "Ghost Palm Lamp" brought only a few hundred thousand yuan to the website. In addition, there are all kinds of advertising expenses of several thousand or 10,000 yuan, so that when you calculate it, you will lose more than 400,000 yuan a month to "become a cartoonist".

And judging by the balance in the company's accounts, the cash flow of the entire company is already in jeopardy. And Wu Zheng's credit card consumption records also show that he is running around the country for investment.

However, Li Er knew that Wu Zheng could not attract angel investment.

The reason why he was able to make such a judgment so quickly is because when Lear contracted "Pirates of Kings", he not only obtained Kazuki Kakureeda's hacking ability, but also obtained the ability of the second protagonist Sakai as an angel venture capitalist.

So he could see at a glance that this website has no core profit point.

The publishing house is already in a period of decline, and an Internet company is undoubtedly self-defeating if it wants to rely on the publishing house to make profits.

If it is placed in 13 years, no matter whether you can find a profit point or not, investors who are stupid and have a lot of money will be like a second-year teenager who can't suppress the power of the wilderness in his body, and he will get the company. Now the investors who have been deceived can learn to be smart, and if they can't see the possibility of making a profit, they can't do it at all.

Therefore, Wu Zheng can be said to be dead.

But why would he care if a stranger lived or died? If the site didn't go down, he would be in trouble. After all, the worse the situation of this website, the more he can keep the price as low as possible when he buys it.

In any case, a team that can be used after buying it is much more comfortable than starting a business from scratch.

……

The next day, Li Er came to the headquarters of "Weekly Shangjing Boy" with the resignation letter he had written. As soon as I stepped into the office floor, I saw a bunch of people gathered in front of the bulletin board, whispering something.

He walked over and patted his good friend Zhang Huaishan on the shoulder: "What happened?"

Zhang Huaishan looked worried: "Editor-in-chief Zhao is leaving, and Bian Wenqing will take his place." ”

"Bian Wenqing, why is he?" Li Er's surprise was not a lie, he was really surprised that Bian Wenqing would be elected to the position of editor-in-chief, are all the people on the board of directors stupid?

"Shhhhh......h

The crowd was divided into two distinct roads like Moses dividing the sea, and under Zhang Huaishan's pull, Li Er reluctantly took a few steps back. I saw Bian Wenqing, who was dressed like a peacock, walking slowly from the staircase.

Today, his gorgeous Cheng dù is two hundred percent higher than in the past, and he still wears like this at work, this guy won't rely on PY trading to get to the top, right?

"Good~Morning~Everyone~" Bian Wenqing took off his sunglasses and smiled with eight teeth, "Today is my first day as editor-in-chief, and it just so happens that everyone is here, so I will have a morning meeting for everyone." ”

"Ha, I'm going to have a meeting without notice......"

"I don't know how long it will take, I haven't eaten breakfast yet. ”

Everyone expressed their dissatisfaction.

Zhang Huaishan and Li Er glanced at each other, and muttered in their hearts at the same time: "The new official will take office with three fires." ”

"Everyone knows that the recent public opinion on the magazine's sexuality, sexuality, violence, and feudal content on the television station is right? In response to the call of the General Administration, it is also to calm down the dissatisfaction of parents. Our company has decided to conduct a self-censorship campaign on the comics that are now serialized, and from today onwards, each editor will actively find out the bad plots of his comics and order the authors to rectify them. The original tone of the work is dark and instigating crime, and it must be revised again until it can be reviewed. ”

"But what about the works that have already been submitted......?"

"That's a good question. Bian Wenqing nodded appreciatively to the editor who asked the question, "Isn't it very simple to redraw part of the change if the change is not large, and tear down and redraw if the change is large?"

"But it's too much work, and I'm afraid the author has complaints...... another editor said.

"Appeasement of public opinion is the top priority now, I hope you will carry forward the style, work hard to overcome difficulties, after all, it is also good for you to purify the reading environment, in all fairness, are you willing to let your nephew or daughter see the past "Weekly Shangjing Boys"?"

The editor immediately shut up, and he didn't know if he was really persuaded by Bian Wenqing, or if he knew that complaining would be useless.

Li Er, who was standing in the back, said to Zhang Huaishan: "After this holiday, Bian Wenqing's clichés have been learned so much?"

"You don't tell him to always be careful that he pulls your pigtails. ”

"Pull it. "Li Er doesn't care, he's going to resign anyway.

Zhang Huaishan glanced at him in surprise, and he didn't know that it was obvious that they were going to fall into overtime hell, why was he so calm?

Bian Wenqing spoke again: "Now I will talk about the names of a few works that need to be overturned as a whole and restarted, as well as the corresponding editors." I read the name to stay. ”

"Unlucky, it won't be me. Zhang Huaishan said.

...... "Wanyou King", Zhang Huaishan. ”

Zhang Huaishan slapped himself in the mouth: "Tell you to set up a flag." ”

"The Ghoul of Shangjing", Li Er. ”

"Looks like we've been placed on probation together again. ”

Li Er is not surprised at all that he is also on this list, because the setting of "Shangjing Ghoul" means that he will inevitably be included in the blacklist for rectification.

Zhang Huaishan looked at him with some schadenfreude: "I don't know why I feel much more comfortable to see that you are also unlucky." ”

“…… Be careful, I'm looking for Uncle Black to explode your chrysanthemum. ”

"Li Er, listen carefully! Originally, the comic you were responsible for was the most prominent problem comic this time, and it didn't listen to it well, you don't want to stay in this company!"

"I think it's the rectification action itself that went wrong. ”

Lear's voice was not loud, but at this time it was tantamount to a thunderclap.

Bian Wenqing's face flushed: "What did you say?"

"Comic magazines are inherently content-oriented. Sadly, this can't be written, that can't be written, but good creation has to be artificially shackled with thought. It's like castrating a normal person alive and then showing it up, does that really make sense?"

"Say it again!"

"Of course, QJ offenders should be punished, but because one QJ commits a crime, all normal men must be castrated, I don't think there is such a reason in the world. Besides, there are fewer plots like ancient Chinese masterpieces, Journey to the West and Zhu Bajie peeked at the female goblin taking a bath, and the Water Margin also said that the officials were killed and rebelled, so just ban them all!"

"Shut up, it's the other way around, you don't want to do it, do you!"

Bian Wenqing's breathing began to shorten.

"As for "Shangjing Ghoul"...... I'm sorry, but I won't change a word!"

snapped, I saw a white thing flying through the crowd and hitting Bian Wenqing in the face fiercely. Bian Wenqing was beaten to the ground, and was finally helped up by his colleagues, and saw an envelope lying in his arms with "resignation letter" written on it.

Lear's voice floated from afar: "Besides, I really don't want to do it." Because I don't want to work under someone who has been offered the position of editor-in-chief through guò PY trading!"

Bian Wenqing's face turned green, then green turned purple, purple and red, as beautiful as opening an art exhibition.

"Look at it, look at it! Why don't you give me a job, damn it, it hurts me to death." ”
