"Li Er, Li Er, wake up, the editor-in-chief is here. Li Er opened his eyes suddenly, and when the focus became clear, the first thing he saw was a row of comic magazines with "Weekly Shangjing Boy" written on it.

He's ...... Why did you fall asleep at work?

Finally, the editor-in-chief left. Li Er said to Zhang Huaishan: "Thank you, I will invite you to dinner next time." ”

"Do you pay attention, did you play a game yesterday?" asked Zhang Huaishan, who took the lead in the sea, asked with concern, he was Lear's roommate in college, and the relationship between the two was quite good. When I was about to graduate from my senior year, I applied for the magazine "Weekly Shangjing Boy" together, and then we were selected together.

Li Er shook his head with strong tiredness and said, "I don't know, I've been confused lately in the daytime. ”

"It can't be any disease, you have to be careful, modern people live under pressure, and they are all sub-healthy. Don't think you're young and unbridled. ”

Li Er thought about it, and then understood what Zhang Huaishan meant, and said loudly: "Get out, it's not what you think!"

Li Er turned around, opened the software, and continued to typeset the comics in his hand. But his gaze couldn't help but move to the right, stopping at the peculiar player.

In the air, which no one could see, there was a transparent window suspended, and after the small shaky square TV stayed on the screen for about two or three seconds, an animation that had never been seen before began to play.

If you touch it with your hands, you will find that there is nothing where the player is, as if it were only left on his retina.

A year ago, inexplicable hallucinations began to affect his life. No matter how you take the medicine, there is no trend of improvement. And wherever he goes, this player follows, and others can't see this thing at all.

Although the animations in it are all good-looking, it is always like this, and he can't help but wonder if he is suffering from some kind of mental illness. He was afraid that this disease would affect his job search, so he concealed it during the interview. I just went to a psychiatrist privately to prescribe some antipsychotic drugs.

By the way, the bottle of medicine! Li Er took out the instructions of the medicine, and sure enough, it said [Side effects: drowsiness, don't drive after taking the medicine].

Li Er stroked his forehead helplessly, why didn't he take a good look at the instructions before taking the medicine. Forgot to introduce yourself.

As mentioned earlier, his name is Li Er, and he is a comic editor who works for the "Weekly Shangjing Boy". The race is single Wang, because he is too homely and has no girlfriend, because he is too homely and has no girlfriend, because he is too homely and has no girlfriend, important things have to be said three times.

He said he was a comic editor, but he had only just turned regular. It's all unsystematic chores, helping with typesetting, writing some event plans, copywriting, etc., but it is generally not used.

If he could, he would really like to do something that would allow him to work directly with the manga authors!

"The typesetting of P39-P139 and P240-P340 is complete, is there anything else to do?" said Lear to the process editor in charge of co-ordination.

"Thank you for your hard work, ah, the editor-in-chief just looked for you, come over quickly. ”

"Looking for me, was the editor-in-chief seen sleeping just now?" Coming to the editor-in-chief's office, Li Er knocked on the door. After hearing the inside say please enter, he cautiously pushed the door open.

See the Great White ...... No, Bai An, the editor-in-chief of the fourth group to which he belongs, is sitting at his desk, smiling and saying something to Zou Gu, the editor-in-charge of the same group. Bai An is in his forties, wears a pair of round glasses, and looks a bit like the big white he saw in "Super Marines".

Hearing someone coming in, Zou Gu looked over with a slick head.

"Ah, Xiao Li is here, sit down. Bai An smiled and pointed to another empty bench.

Zou Gu tapped his four fingers on the table, not at all wanting to talk to Li Er, who was less senior than him.

"Editor-in-Chief Bai, is there anything wrong with calling me here this time?" Li Er said politely.

"In this way, we have recently added a serializer to our four groups, you know. Then, I decided to put Zou Gu in charge of being the editor-in-charge of the author. But Zou Gu himself is still Gao Qiao's editor-in-charge, so I decided to make you Gao Qiao's editor-in-charge. ”

"I, really, but I've never had any experience as a responsible editor?" said Lear, a little flattered.

"It's okay, Zou Gu will teach you, right, Zou is in charge. Bai An said to Zou Gu with a smile.

"Ah, no problem, wrap it up on me. Zou Gu said flatteringly to Bai An.

"Alright, let's both go back to work. Editor Zou, be kind to your juniors!" Bai An made an OK gesture.

Leaving Bai An's office, Zou Gu immediately straightened his bent waist. The expression on his face was completely like a different person.

He said to Li Er arrogantly: "I have put all the information about Gao Qiao's serialized "Wanyou King" on your table. I'm going to have to talk to the new author about the next thing these days, and I don't have time to waste with you. You must know that this author is something I finally won for the four groups, and the result of its first word is the first in the quick report, and you know what the concept of the first in the quick report is!"

"Is it the one that selects a hundred from the reader's questionnaire and counts the rankings?" asked Lear.

Zou Gu pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "It looks like you're not stupid yet." This means that our four groups can finally produce an author with good results, and in the past six months, every time we have achieved comprehensive results, our four groups have been at the bottom. Not even a single comic made it into the top 10! Now that's about to change, and at this critical juncture, I hope you don't bother me with your stupid questions, got it!"

"But that's not what you said from the editor-in-chief just now......"

"Are you senior or am I highly qualified, will you speak by looking at your face. I'm so busy, I don't have time to teach you. Learn to do it yourself, who doesn't come here like this!" Zou Gu walked away with a stinky face.

All right...... This man is really fickle.

When he returned to his seat, he saw a large cardboard box on his desk, squeezing his laptop aside. Inside the cardboard box were many file boxes and twenty or thirty letters from readers.

Lear took the cardboard box off, put it at his feet, and straightened the laptop.

"I heard that you have become the editor-in-charge, congratulations. However, the comic "Wanyou King" has been at the bottom for two consecutive weeks, and it is very likely that it will be cut in half!" said Zhang Huaishan, who was sitting next to him.

"Wanyou King" is a clever comic about a cowardly boy who gets the crystal skeleton of the ancient Maya from his own warehouse and awakens the soul of the ancient Mayan king. Then through the dark power of the Mayan kings, they use the dark game to punish the bad guys and claim the story of justice.

"Ah, "The King of Ten Thousand Travels" is about to be cut in half? I think his story is quite interesting. ”

"Readers don't like it, and there have been a lot of protest letters sent in before. There are also parents who have come to make trouble, and the editor-in-chief also feels a headache!"

“…… And I haven't heard of it. Li Er said in surprise.

"No, haven't you heard of the super-famous Russian Roulette protest letter? Oh, I remember. You were going back to school that day to get your diploma. No wonder you don't know!"

"Is 'Russian Roulette' the same as using the revolver candy pistol that is very popular in junior high school to play a game of death? I remember that the plot was indeed that the mysterious enemy used the protagonist Wan You's friend to blackmail Wan You into playing a gambling game with him, by stuffing a candy bullet into a toy pistol, and then shoved the barrel deep into his mouth and shot at the throat. ”

"If you don't win, you can get 10,000 yuan at a time. Whoever is going to give up halfway through will have to pay all the money. If there is a bullet in the chamber when the gun is fired, the person who pressed the switch will suffocate due to the sugar stuck in the throat. ”

Wan You stole the family's money to participate in this gambling contract. Discovering that the opponent actually used the transmitter to know the location of the bullet in advance, the protagonist will calculate and smash the transmitter. The other party loses due to great psychological pressure and is locked up in a forever Russian roulette game by the protagonist in a dark game...... That's the story, indeed. ”

Zhang Huaishan nodded: "Yes." Anyway, it's really too dead.,It's a problem for the protagonist to steal money from the family.,The props used to play the game are also popular toys that can be bought anywhere.。 It's so easy for people to imitate, I heard that even the publishing house was so noisy that I deleted this sentence in the single book!"

"That's right...... Is this the letter of protest from the time?" Lear looked at the contents of the box.

He found Gao Qiao's contact number from the file box and called it, but he didn't get through. He had no choice but to leave a message in a text message, accusing Gao Qiao of changing the matter. Then he took out the file box and looked through Zou Gu's previous work records.

The previous records are very complete, not only including copies of the original comics of "Wanyou King", the submitted storyboards, but also neatly written the project plan and the copy of the side comment column.

In addition, the results of this newspaper are also neatly listed at the end. But when the results of this newspaper declined, the records became more and more sloppy, and Li Er even found that there were typos in the copy. And when the results of "Wanyou King" are at the bottom of this newspaper, the record is only a few sentences.

He pulled out the letters in the box and saw what they were about. He opened a letter and read it word for word.

"This cartoon doesn't promote positive energy, and it doesn't have the right values. Killing all those who make mistakes is a kind of pseudo-value of stopping evil deeds with evil deeds. In this society governed by the rule of law, we should hand over the bad guys to the law, instead of blindly countering violence with violence. So I don't think this book should be in the children's field of vision. ”

Lear picked up another letter, this time in much more intense language. "I can't believe that a magazine could publish a cartoon like this! This cartoon is vulgar, dark, and oppressive. There are also direct depictions of corpses, which are really disgusting! Our child has nightmares at night, so we have to take him to a psychiatrist. If you let my child have a psychological shadow, can you afford to pay the responsibility?"

Third, fourth......

"I found this cartoon in a kid's drawer. I've just read a few pages and I'm angry.,The games here are too easy to imitate.。 What if my kids learn comics and put a toy gun in their mouths? I don't know why this kind of comic can be published!"

"I am a member of the Parent Council and a teacher. The main audience of "Shangjing Boys" is some minors who don't know how to score and distinguish between good and evil. In particular, the phrase "Russian Roulette" makes children imitate the behavior of adults and make dangerous bets. It's just too dangerous. In particular, this kind of toy can be found everywhere in the streets, and children can easily buy it and imitate the plot of the comics......"

…… Lear looked a little depressed. He put down the letter and pinched the tip of his nose. There are more bloody and depressing comics than "Wanyou King", and if you want to talk about crimes, aren't those reasoning comics even more excessive?

He picked up the last letter, but unexpectedly, it was sent by a fan.

"Dear Mr. Gao Qiao, I am a die-hard fan of yours. Because I was frail and sickly since childhood, I spent most of my time in the hospital. When the pain is so bad that I can't sleep, I can only sit and lean my waist on the pillow, and I can't sleep well if I want to. It's a comic, and it's my analgesic. ”

"When I was in school, I was bullied by my senior classmates because of my weak health. Every morning I feel that at school, either the chair is missing or someone has stepped on the table several times. ”

"No one understands me, and the teachers don't help me. I often skipped class and went to a rented bookstore to escape reality. There, I can forget for a moment who I am. However, most of the time, I still have to live in reality. I used to want to get superpowers, kill all the guys who bullied me, and even thought about suicide at one point......"

"Seeing Wan You, the protagonist of this comic, is like seeing me as a child. But I didn't have a Mayan king to help me defeat the villains. And the irony is that most of the students who bullied me now are not as good as me, I really don't know why I was so sad in those years......"

"Now I'm a comic coffee owner. When business is good, the store is full. Every time a guest comes, I recommend "Wanyou King" to them. Of all the games that have appeared in Wanyou, my favorite is DAD Dragon Dice because I'm also a Dungeons & Dragons player. Especially when the character dies, I always want to be able to directly get a dragon dice, how good it would be to automatically generate the character, and it would be too troublesome to design the character or something (laughs). ”

"I heard that you live in Shangjing, and my manga is also in Shangjing. There are quite a few board games in it, as well as a fixed group of Dungeons & Dragons. If you have time, you are welcome to come and play. Summer rain, 20 April 2015. ”
