Feiyang Publishing House, President's Office.
President and editor-in-chief Yang Linfei sat at his desk and looked at his wife Yang Qiuling.
Yang Linfei once worked in a large domestic publishing company, and was appreciated and promoted by the editor-in-chief for his excellent work ability and conscientious work attitude, and was promoted from an ordinary editor to the editor-in-chief step by step.
A few years ago, the company's internal high-level fighting, the editor-in-chief failed to distribute the frontier, and the winner launched a purge within the company. He was promoted by the editor-in-chief's appreciation, and he was labeled as the editor-in-chief, and his situation can be imagined.
Rabbits bite people when they are in a hurry, let alone people.
was bullied too hard, Yang Lin resigned in anger, and pulled a group of friends to start a new stove and founded Feiyang Publishing House.
In the early days of their establishment, they were also enthusiastic and ambitious, just like the name of the publishing house - flying and domineering.
However, as the years passed, the publishing house was in an increasingly difficult situation. The blood of the past is slowly cold, the ambition of the past is slowly wearing, the former partners are gradually leaving, and now in addition to their husband and wife, the once like-minded partners have left the company one after another.
"Qiu Ling, am I wrong?" Yang Linfei asked, his voice low.
Two years ago, Kodansha and Aiman Culture teamed up to create "Manman Love", and he keenly grasped the business opportunities in the comic market and decided to enter the comic market, which was unanimously opposed by several partners.
With the support of his wife, he overcame public opinion and founded the comic magazine "Flying Youth", but he also planted the seeds of conflict within the company.
If "Flappy Youth" succeeds, the contradiction will naturally be stillborn, but unfortunately "Flappy Youth" has been published for two years, and the average sales volume is only 180,000 copies, and it is only 230,000 copies at its peak.
The small profitable book publishing business was also affected by the company's resources biased towards comics, and profits shrank sharply, but he still insisted on the cake of the comic market, and finally the contradiction broke out.
The partners left one after another, the old people resigned one after another, and the company suffered another turmoil, and now it has become the tail of a crane in the publishing industry in Beijing, and it may close down one day.
Not long ago, Jian Fei, the platinum author of "Flying Youth", hurriedly finished his work, jumped to another comic magazine, and dealt a heavy blow to "Flying Youth", and the latest sales have plummeted to less than 150,000 copies.
"You can never be wrong." Yang Qiuling walked behind her husband and gently massaged his head, "I think the just-published "Boundless Love" and "Time Shuttle" are good, and the sales should be able to exceed 300,000 copies. Although Jian Fei has jumped ship, the new serialized "Walking Songs" and "Dead and Alive" also have a lot of potential, why don't you train a few more platinum authors? ”
"Thank you, wife."
Yang Linfei shook his head and sighed lightly, he didn't know that this was his wife's kind comfort.
China is a vast land with a large number of people, and it is a big country in the copyright economy, and it has cracked down on piracy, lacking the soil to breed piracy, and the sales performance of genuine copies is gratifying.
Take books as an example, sales of more than 500,000 are barely qualified, more than one million are considered bestsellers, and 300,000 ......
As for the comics, the platinum author of "Flying Youth" is not as good as the second-tier author of "Long Love", as for cultivating new talents, it takes a lot of time, can the publishing house survive?
Jingle bells!
The phone on the desk rang, Yang Linfei picked up the phone, and fed weakly.
"Dad, have you seen the latest announcement of "Long Love"!" Her daughter's voice came over the phone, excited and mixed with a hint of anger.
"Mi Mi, you have something to say slowly, what's wrong?"
"Take a look at the announcement on the official website of the rookie competition, they said that Maizi impersonated and disqualified him!"
"Wheat? You mean the author of Naruto and Boys Over Flowers? ”
"That's right! They went too far, such a good-looking comic actually wronged people for impostors, and my classmates and I were in contact, ready to blow up the official website of the rookie competition. Dad, can you sign Maizi so I can see his comics for the first time! ”
"No problem, who's your dad!" Yang Linfei was excited.
"Really? I heard that the information of the participating authors is strictly confidential, can you get the contact information of Maizi? ”
"Girl, you underestimate your father too much. Not only can my dad get his phone number, but he also has no problem with the drafts! ”
Hanging up the phone, Yang Qiuling has logged on to the official website of "Long Love" and opened the latest announcement.
The couple smiled tacitly and read the announcement when they met their heads.
Yang Linfei said with a smile: "It seems that Li Gang's idiot has hit a hard bone, and the author of Maizi is quite tough." ”
……
Backbone, like ideals, will always bend in the face of reality because of various factors.
Mai Xiaoyu was not as tough as Yang Linfei imagined, and he tried to compromise for Song's mother's high medical expenses.
As long as Li Gang promised him 1.5 million, he was willing to give up the copyright of the two works and be the gunman for the other party.
But eighty thousand......
There's a kind of you trying to plagiarize my work, I can't kill you!
The USB drive in his hand is Mai Xiaoyu's biggest guarantee, he only needs to wait until the right time to get the much-needed surgery fee from Li Gang, and he believes that the time will come soon.
But after waiting for two days, the results of this year's "Long Love" Newcomer Competition have been released, and he is ready to carry out a tour of award-winning works, and Mai Xiaoyu did not wait for the opportunity he was looking forward to.
On the contrary, because of the list of winners, the Japanese Gold Award, the Chinese Silver Award, and the winning award, the award distribution is exactly the same as the previous two sessions, which has caused heated discussions on the Internet. Many people insist that the newcomer competition of "Long Love" is shady, and the nationality distribution of the winners of the three consecutive years is the best evidence.
Then, I don't know who pulled out the wheat first, and he and his two entries "Boys Over Flowers" and "Naruto" immediately became the focus of public opinion.
Netizens who insist that the newcomer Saicun zài is shady believe that Maizi's experience proves the shady existence of zài.
"Big love for "Boys Over Flowers", the award is set, Maizi is shot!"
""Naruto" is the best, it's better than Japanese comics, the traitors help Japanese invaders to suppress the new stars of Guoman!"
"I also think that Naruto is a hundred times better than the Gold Award work. By the way, I'm Japanese, so who is the Japanese scolding upstairs! ”
"What style is different, people can't be geniuses!"
"Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, the wheat will not die, will the person who is determined dare to accept the award?"
……
Netizens who think that there is no shady competition believe that it should be Maizi who was disqualified, which shows that the competition is open, fair and just.
"I like "Boys Over Flowers" and I like VATS, but Maizi's impostor, shameful!"
"Sasuke is the most handsome, Maiko is shameless, it makes sense to cancel, there is no shady!"
"Maizi's two comics are excellent, but the painting style is obviously different, and the organizing committee's decision is not wrong!"
""Boys Over Flowers" and "Naruto" will definitely be big hits, if there is a shady scene, why does the organizing committee disqualify him?"
……
"What is Boys Over Flowers?"
"Naruto is a national manga?"
"Where?"
"Am I missing something?"
"Ask for popular science."
The passerby party continues to enter the pit......
