044 Meeting with Kazuhiko Torishima

Kazuhiko Torishima waited for a long time, and finally seized the opportunity to let Qin Han lift the ban and return to the commercial comic world, how could someone be allowed to make extraneous branches.

He argued: "The matter about Qin Han's violation of the exclusive cartoonist system has been proven to be just a ...... 'misunderstanding'. ”

Kazuhiko Torishima considered the words and finally chose "misunderstanding" rather than "framing".

After all, by now, it no longer matters what the truth is. No matter how much he despises Toshima Ryuzo as a person, he can only whitewash it for the sake of Shueisha's overall interests.

"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, the so-called liquidated damages do not exist at all."

"You can't say that, Editor-in-Chief Bird Island." The Minister of Justice did not back down. For people who take money to do things, he can be regarded as dedicated.

"What you say is just a rumor, and it can't be verified at all. However, the matter of Qin and Han's breach of contract was written in black and white, and it was already decided. His contract with Weekly Shonen Magazine, stamped with a private seal, has full legal effect. As evidence of our breach of contract, the contract attachment is stored on my computer. ”

He looked confidently at the directors of Shueisha sitting at the top: "For Shueisha, a leader in the Toei publishing industry, and even a company with considerable influence in the world, you must have your own considerations about whether it is important to maintain the foundation of the company's system or the importance of short-term interests. ”

Kazuhiko Torishima felt a sense of powerlessness come over him.

The other party's words are indeed very convincing.

This world is sometimes so cold, and systems and rules must override human feelings and reason.

Especially for the capitalists.

The directors exchanged words and discussions, and some supported the head of the legal department, advocating that the system of Shueisha should be maintained first, and that no exception should be made, and that Qin Han must be allowed to pay off the liquidated damages before lifting the ban order. Some directors feel that they can choose to be accommodating for the sake of their interests. For example, first lift the ban of Qin Han and let him come to Shueisha to draw comics, and then every time he pays the remuneration, a certain fee will be deducted proportionally to pay liquidated damages.

If there is a difference of opinion, it means that the matter will drag on for a long time before it can be resolved.

So after the meeting, the head of the legal department left the conference room with a spring breeze on his face and went to the stairwell where no one was there to make a phone call to Ryuzo Toshima.

After knowing the results of the meeting, Toshima Ryuzo laughed proudly and swept away the gloom in his heart.

"It's worth the 30 million! In this way, even if the argument comes to a result, Shueisha finally lifts the ban on Qin and Han, I am afraid it will be half a year or even a year later.

Now Qin Han has just won the championship of the painting competition, and will participate in the filming of NHK documentaries in the future, which can be described as the limelight. If he makes a comeback at this time and starts serializing in business magazines, there is a great possibility that he will take advantage of the trend and soar to the sky.

At that time, if Qin Han's comic results surpass his own, the last pride in Toshima Ryuzo's heart will also be shattered.

But now, with 20 million liquidated damages stuck, Qin Han will miss his best development opportunity, and he, with the popularity brought by animation, "Thunderbolt Swordsman" will go one step further, and even ascend to the throne of the Four Heavenly Kings of JUMP!

Just when Ryuzo Toshima was triumphant, Kazuhiko Torishima returned to his desk.

The purpose was not achieved, which made his face a little ugly.

But it's not all bad. At least the attitude of the top management of Shueisha has been loosened, and in time, the matter will definitely be resolved.

"Let's give Qin Han a call first, at least give him some hope, and let him be ready during this time. When I really return to commercial serialization in the future, I can come up with good works as soon as possible. ”

So, Qin Han and Bole, who had discovered him, met in a café.

Kazuhiko Torishima has an explosive head, just like Dr. Marsilit in "Arraet". The T-shirt on his body is painted with a piece of poop.

This thing is also Aralei's favorite "toy".

The man next door to Mrs. Nagasawa who "always wears strange T-shirts" is him.

An uncle in his forties, but he likes to wear this kind of strange anime T-shirt, and he doesn't care about other people's eyes, which shows how deep his love for "Alalei", Akira Toriyama's famous work.

And it is precisely because of such a group of editors who have advanced and retreated together with the author and put a lot of effort into the work that JUMP has been able to create a golden age.

After the two met, they chatted for a while, and Kazuhiko Torishima told Qin Han what happened to Shueisha.

"I see." Qin Han responded lightly, then sipped the latte lightly and did not speak.

Kazuhiko Torishima carefully observed Qin Han's expression, secretly surprised in his heart.

More than a year ago, Kazuhiko Torishima first met Qin Han in a cubicle in the hall on the first floor of Shueisha. This young man who came to submit the article had a mixture of youth and confidence in his eyes.

As the contact deepened, Kazuhiko Torishima became more and more familiar with Qin and Han. He knew that this young man had the talent to become a cartoonist, but his personality was somewhat paranoid.

Some people say that if you don't go crazy, you can't live. Those famous art creators are more or less paranoid. Because only in this way can we devote ourselves to creation with infinite enthusiasm and perseverance and achieve success.

But in life, this kind of personality is very likely to go wrong.

Sure enough, at the most critical moment of qualifying for JUMP serialization, something went wrong.

It was precisely because he was too focused on the creation of comics and ignored the things around him that Qin Han inadvertently offended his assistant and led to the betrayal of the other party.

And the neglect of the details of life even made Qin Han not keep his private seal and was easily stolen.

You must know that such a thing as a private seal is very important to the people of Dongying. It will be used to open an account at a bank, or to go to a government department to go through any license procedures.

And after the incident, Qin Han, who was deeply hit, directly closed himself off, did not choose to call the police, let alone try to save the situation, so that in the end he ended up being completely blocked.

But now, the young man has changed.

Not only has the painting technique been comprehensively improved, but also become more mature in dealing with the world.

It's like a rough stone that has been polished for a long time and begins to shine brightly.

Kazuhiko Torishima's mind is full of thoughts, and all kinds of past things come to mind like a marquee. He sighed and said, "Qin Han, now you don't have to worry, just create your own fandom with peace of mind." I will continue to convince Shueisha executives. Wait another half a year, or a year, and your ban will definitely be lifted. ”

Qin Han smiled slightly: "Torishima-san, don't be so troublesome. I can still get 20 million liquidated damages. ”

"Ahem......" Kazuhiko Torishima was shocked by Qin Han's words and choked on a sip of coffee. He finally came to his senses and looked at Qin Han in surprise, "What? Have you already scraped together the liquidated damages? That's 20 million! ”
