Koji Tamagawa is a producer at TBS, and not only has two high-rated variety shows on hand, but also has a wealth of experience in TV drama production.

When "Dragon Sakura" first started serialized, his eyes lit up and he was very optimistic about this comic.

The TV drama industry is highly competitive, and in order to increase ratings, major TV stations have spared no expense and hollowed out their minds to find excellent scripts. An excellent manga like "Dragon Sakura", which has a strong potential for change, is of course the object of competition for TV stations.

After Tamagawa Yasuji knew that the author of "Dragon Sakura" was Qin Han, who had sold him "New Treasure Island", he immediately decided to contact the other party as soon as possible to negotiate. Compared with other TV stations, he and Qin Han also have some friendship and can take the lead.

"Teacher Qin Han, I think "Dragon Sakura" is a very good work, and if it is adapted into a TV series by live-action, it can also be very popular. Are you interested in doing so?"

"I am happy to make more money and make my work known to more people. It's just that it's too early to talk about live-action adaptation? "Dragon Sakura" hasn't even come out yet. ”

"Not early at all, not early at all. Yasuji Tamagawa hurriedly said, "This kind of thing, the sooner it is determined, the better." We at TBS are very sincere, and if you wish, we can make an appointment to call President Hojo and discuss with us. ”

Hojo is the vice president of the White Springs Club in charge of copyright development, and he is indeed in charge of the adaptation of the TV series.

Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

The two were chatting, and Vice President Hojo, who had a shiny bald head, appeared out of nowhere and joined the conversation between the two.

"Vice President Hojo, we're talking about the TV adaptation of "Dragon Sakura". ”

"yes, that's a good thing. If TBS is interested, we are certainly willing to cooperate. ”

Although the two chatted very warmly, and the adaptation of the TV series from "Dragon Sakura" is also in line with the common interests of the publishing house and the TV station, when it comes to specific things, there are disagreements.

Yasuji Tamagawa hopes that "Dragon Sakura" can be dramatized as soon as possible, so that it can be one step ahead in the ratings battle of the five major private TV stations. As for the specific time point, it is best to broadcast it in the spring of next year.

However, this is obviously not good for the publishing house.

If the TV series "Dragon Sakura" is broadcast in the spring of next year, at that time, the comic book version of "Dragon Sakura" will be published in 2 to 3 volumes at most, and the progress will obviously not be able to keep up with the TV series.

Then, the solution is either the original plot of the TV series, or the original author spoils in advance and uses the follow-up plot of the comic for the TV series.

If it is original, then the quality of the TV series may be difficult to guarantee, and if the quality is poor, it is likely to affect the reputation of the original work.

If you spoil in advance and let the plot of the TV series progress more than the original, it will have a great impact on the sales of the original work, whether it is a single book or a magazine.

"If the plot of the TV series is original, I will never agree to it. Qin Han also expressed his attitude.

His main purpose in painting "Dragon Sakura" is to give the two girls a chance to help them go further in their acting careers. If the TV series causes bad reviews because of nonsense, but it drags down the evaluation of the leading actors, wouldn't it be self-defeating?

Whether it is in the past life or in this world, adaptation and destruction of the original work abound. Although "Dragon Sakura" is not a completely original comic of the Qin and Han dynasties, it "borrows" from the works of the previous life, but it is not okay for people to change it casually.

Seeing that Qin Han was opposed, Tamagawa Yasuji took a step back: "Since Mr. Qin Han is against it, then the plan of the original plot will not be considered." However, I hope that your company can fully consider the mood of our TV station and be able to make "Dragon Sakura" a live-action as soon as possible. ”

"I also know that TBS has its own difficulties, but the key to this kind of thing is to look at the progress of the comics, right, Mr. Qin Han? Now "Dragon Sakura" is serialized in four words a month, eighty pages. On average, a single volume can be published in two and a half months, which is already a very fast speed, comparable to the weekly serialization of those juvenile comics. No matter how fast it accelerates, Teacher Qin Han may not be able to bear it. Vice President Kitajima said.

Vice President Kitajima's words are half true.

Eighty pages a month is a very fast creative speed. However, for Qin and Han, it is far from the level of "unbearable".

With a level 9 "Creation Speed" skill and an automatic working elf pen, even if it is a single book a month, Qin Han is completely fine.

But if you really explode the liver painting like this, the magazine may not be happy.

Baiquan Society spent a lot of money to invite Qin Han here, and finally had a comic with signs of popularity, of course, I hope that "Dragon Sakura" will be serialized in "young_animal" for as long as possible. In this way, it is possible to maximize the sales of the magazine and bring benefits to the publisher.

Besides, magazines have a limited number of pages, and if your comics alone take up tens or hundreds of pages, what about other cartoonists? Readers who want to see as much content as possible won't be happy.

Originally, it was just a matter of probing the wind and preliminary consultations, but as a result, the vice president of a publishing house, an original author, and a TV producer, chatted more and more deeply, and finally really discussed the details of the real-life "Dragon Sakura".

Yasuji Tamagawa asked, "Teacher Qin Han, in your plan, how long is "Dragon Sakura"?"

"Dragon Sakura" in the previous life, a total of 21 volumes, was serialized from 2003 to 2007, and it can be regarded as a long comic.

Qin Han modified the plot for the adaptation of the TV series and deleted redundant characters and plots, but to finish the whole story from beginning to end, it would take at least 10 to 12 volumes.

After listening to Qin Han's answer, Tamagawa Yasuji pondered for a moment and said: "Teacher Qin Han, if the length of the comic is about 10 volumes, then the TV series will start preparations next summer, how about the autumn broadcast? In this way, by the time the TV series ends, the manga will almost reach the finale." When the time comes, I believe that the sales of comics and the ratings of TV series will be greatly improved!"

"Producer Tamagawa, your idea is really good. But according to this time plan, unless Mr. Qin Han can serialize 200 pages a month and issue a single volume...... I'm afraid this kind of work intensity ......"

Vice President Hojo did not agree with Tamagawa Koji's suggestion. In addition to worrying that Qin Han's creative speed will not be able to keep up, the most important reason is that I hope that Qin Han's time in "young_animal" will be as long as possible.

spared no expense, and even the editor-in-chief of Watian used the trick of sitting under the soil, and the cartoonist he invited to finish the cartoon in less than a year after drawing it, patted his ass and left, and no one would be reconciled.
