123 tempts the innocent

readx;? In mid-August 2008, the curtain seemed to be coming to an end on this all-out crackdown on superhero comics. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Meng Qi and AC Comics seem to have been pushed to the edge of the cliff, but those who are hidden in the shadows don't know that this is just his strategy.

To retreat as an advance and show the enemy to be weak is just to give yourself space to stop the deadly charge.

For more than two months, Meng Qi has not been idle, in addition to persuading the Huala brothers and the NBO to fully cooperate with him, in addition to reaching some kind of agreement with "Comic Frontier" magazine, he has also collected a lot of strong evidence that is very favorable to him.

Now, Meng Qi was waiting, waiting for the moment when those enemies in the darkness showed their flaws.

And according to a certain "hunch", he felt that this moment was about to come.

…………

On August 17, a book called "Seducing the Innocent" hit the shelves of major bookstores across the United States.

This academic book was co-authored by three renowned psychologists and recommended by many scholars.

The whole book starts with juvenile delinquency, pointing out that from November 2007 to June 2008, juvenile delinquency in the United States has been on the rise, and the three authors of this book have studied many cases and found that these juvenile criminals are very keen on superhero comics, so they came to the conclusion that "superhero comics lead to crime".

The subjects of this book are all juvenile delinquents, and many of them are orphans, single-parent families, and people with psychological abnormalities, so it is obviously very uncommon and one-sided to use "superhero comics" as the only reason for these juveniles to commit crimes.

However, the author of this book is a very famous psychologist, and one of them even has a professor who specializes in juvenile criminal psychology, so although the book is mainly based on interviews, supplemented by speculation, and does not have any convincing data, they mislead readers into ignoring the scope of the sample, the method of sampling, and the actual proportions, and deliberately use all kinds of terrible examples, such as juvenile delinquents who have committed serious crimes, to intimidate the readers, so that the readers do not have time to examine and doubt them rationally.

As a direct consequence of this practice, those living extreme cases perfectly attract the reader's attention, and almost intimidate the slightly more responsible parents to the maximum.

Under the "bombardment" propaganda of various media and channels such as newspapers, magazines, television, and the Internet, "Seducing the Innocent" soon became known.

For those who resist superhero comics, this book offers a certain standard and to follow, and that is, superhero comics are guilty!

The boycotters finally had a common goal, and the "Eight Deadly Sins" summarized in the book quickly became the unifying rhetoric for their attacks on superhero comics.

In a sense, the "battle text" concocted by Mr. Sergeant Major is like the rope that firmly binds all kinds of forces together, and finally converges into a huge wave.

In the eyes of Mr. Sergeant Major, this was a precursor to the blowing of the horn of victory.

On August 20th, major media gathered in New York, because here today, there is a big event in the animation industry that is about to happen.

Twenty years ago, when the United States Federal Comics was about to collapse, three comic book associations broke out of the sky to turn the tide and revitalize the United States.

And today, 20 years ago, the events of 20 years ago are about to repeat themselves, and an organization called the "New Comics Association of the United States", which includes more than 50 comic companies and publishing houses in the United States, will be established in New York.

At a time when superhero comics have been boycotted by the whole people and have gradually declined, for American comics, the establishment of such an association is undoubtedly a shot in the arm.

Especially for those who have a passionate love for the Federacy comics, they don't care what the final outcome of the superhero comics is, they care more about where the Federacy comics will go after the superhero comics boycott......

The establishment of the New Comics Association of the United States Commonwealth gave them a little hope, because the events of 20 years ago left a deep enough impression on people that when they heard the word "association", people subconsciously thought that what had happened in history would happen again.

And the American Federal New Comics Association also makes good use of people's psychology, and at the press conference, it repeatedly mentioned words such as "twenty years ago" and "revitalization of American comics", of course, at the same time, "boycott superhero comics" and "superhero comics guilt theory" and other statements have also appeared more times.

"I'm a staunch opponent of superhero comics...... It is undeniable that superhero comics have indeed swept the United States in the past period of time, but I can assure you here that my Blade comics have never drawn a single superhero-related thing......"

At this time, standing on the stage as a press spokesman was none other than David Stern, one of Mr. Sergeant's "Iron Triangle".

He is the owner of Blade Comics, but at the same time, he has a more important identity, that is, the founder of the New Comics Association of the United States.

"What I need to explain here is that the project for the book "Tempting the Innocent" actually came from the Blade comics...... The purpose of inviting those three psychologists to write this book...... Sorry, can I say it's because of my aversion to superhero comics?"

David Stern's words caused a small burst of laughter from the audience.

"Seriously, this book started out as a personal idea of mine, and I just wanted to prove that superhero comics are really not as good as everyone thinks, or that these guys in tights can't even put garbage on the table...... But the results really blew me away, and I thought, I have to let everyone know that superhero comics are sinful and really shouldn't exist in this world......" David Stern's facial expression is very rich, and at this point, he shows his deep disgust at the right time.

"Let's go back to what we just said, my friends...... Not only me and my company are against superhero comics, but today, all the members of our New Comics Association are companies and publishers that have never set foot in superhero comics......" David Stern's expression was a little heavy, "In the past month, I have almost contacted comic companies and publishers that I can contact, but unfortunately, the people who really focus on the traditional comics of the American Federation have become rare animals, and for the sake of profit, most companies have given up what they once insisted on and thrown themselves into the arms of superheroes." ā€¦ā€¦ā€

"However, it turns out that they are wrong, and they are very wrong!" David Stern waved his fist excitedly, "Only the real American Cartoon can save American Cartoon! Only all of us here can unite to save American Cartoon!"

"That's right, now our strength is still very weak, and most of our resources have been swallowed up by superhero comics, but it doesn't matter, my dear friends, the door of hope has been opened, the faint fire has been lit, let us turn the love in our hearts into a sword in our hands, cut all thorns, break through all obstacles......" David Stern smiled and drew a cross on his chest, "God bless the American Federal Comics......"

On the stage, there was a long-lasting applause.

"Brilliant demagogue and speaker ......"

Meng Qi sat in his office, watching the press conference broadcast live on TV, and was still in the mood to judge David Stern's speech.

"Still, you guys jumped out impatiently......" Meng Qi muttered to himself, "I'm waiting for now......

David Stern took the initiative to claim "Tempting the Innocent", and in Meng Qi's view, they wanted to use the book to connect the huge power and increase the recognition of the New Comics Association, so as to better gain a foothold and divide more of the benefits left after the defeat of superhero comics.

Meng Qi is now very sure that his repeated weakness has made his enemies relax their vigilance to a certain extent, and even thinks that superhero comics are already in a losing position, so he will let David Stern come out to clean up the mess.

However, it is precisely in this way that Meng Qi finally has the first point that can be attacked.

"Knock knock!"

There was a knock on the office door, and then the door was opened, and Su Nan's voice came: "They have all arrived, waiting for you in the conference room......"

Meng Qi stood up, and a murderous aura flashed in his eyes: "Let's go!"
