Chapter 263: "The Land of Martial Arts" changes the editor-in-chief
At the end of August, Mr. Yi'an's new work "Smiling Proud Jianghu" was finally published in the magazine, but it didn't even have the treatment of the frontispiece's color page.
The main reason is that not long ago, Qiu Hongbo, a high-ranking figure of the Chinese Culture Media Group to which "Martial Country" magazine belongs, completely rejected his excessive copyright claim, and the huge team of lawyers on the other side simply made him unable to start.
Qiu Hongbo, who was embarrassed and angry, made up his mind to transfer the current editor-in-chief Ji Hongfei, and then promote his cronies Lei Ruili, even if it was at the cost of some strictness.
After all, the editor-in-chief Ji Hongfei has done a very good job for more than a year, and it is obviously not an easy thing to transfer this editor-in-chief with great credit for no reason, if it weren't for Qiu Hongbo's deep background, don't even think about this kind of thing.
Moreover, the transfer of Ji Hongfei will also use the term "promotion", and this kind of thing is not only in officialdom, but also in large groups.
Qiu Hongbo is so consuming and aggressive, because he is very optimistic about the development of martial arts comics, the sales of "Martial Country" have further increased before, and the income of Chuangzào is even more amazing, as if it is the arrival of the golden age of martial arts, which makes him determined to do a big job in this field!
However, Ji Hongfei, the editor-in-chief of "The Land of Martial Arts", did not cooperate at all, and asked the editor-in-chief to put pressure on Yi An, but he was always very reluctant, but said that Yi An was the most important author of "The Country of Martial Arts", and he must not be too persecutive on Yi An, and he must encircle Yi An......
This made Qiu Hongbo too angry, what kind of thing is Yi An?
He thinks that it is enough for "The Land of Martial Arts" to have such a Dinghai Shenshen Needle as Ke Yongqun, although last year's newcomer Wang Yi'an has created a number of popular works, but he does not even have a truly super popular feature-length work, but this author still enjoys various privileges. And the most crucial thing is that the author has made no concessions in terms of copyright!
Qiu Hongbo is very jealous of the copyright income of those martial arts works, because they are very suitable for adaptation, people in high positions like him, of course, know how much benefit the copyright around the comics contains, but unfortunately he can only look at the ▽dǐng▽diǎn▽小▽ said, .2≮3.◎os_();!
This qiē made him make up his mind - he wanted to take full control of "The Land of Martial Arts", and use some seemingly generous but harsh contracts to tie up talented authors, and take the income from the copyright into his pocket, in the magazine serialization manuscript fee, single book sharing. It is possible to make a concession.
After he paid a great exchange of benefits, Ji Hongfei, the editor-in-chief who discovered the genius cartoonist Yi An and made great contributions, finally "promoted" not long ago and entered the headquarters of the Chinese Culture Media Group, with a higher position and a triple salary, but the position is very idle......
Ji Hongfei is also open-minded, and at the celebration of his promotion, he admitted that he has struggled in the field of martial arts comics for so long. I already feel tired, and it is better to be an editor than to be an ordinary reader, so that I can enjoy the pure joy of reading comics.
Ding Hebei can also be regarded as Ji Hongfei's hardcore descendant. Ji Hongfei's ascension and Lei Ruili's replacement made her heart very gloomy.
She didn't doubt Lei Ruili's ability, she just felt that the other party's personality was too strong and domineering, and she was even more resolute in doing things. She was very skeptical that Lei Ruili could coordinate everyone, after all, there was no room for sand in this person's eyes.
And Ji Hongfei is a very atmospheric person, even if he knows the reason for his "promotion". But he still blessed Lei Ruili, who succeeded him, with a wine glass, this kind of open-mindedness really makes people have to convince him.
However, after Lei Ruili took over as the editor-in-chief, he did not immediately make any big moves, but first invited the editors to gather people's hearts, and then went to meet several popular authors, including Ke Yongqun, alone......
His attitude is also very approachable, and he has won the favor of many editors and authors at once, and everyone thinks that he succeeds Ji Hongfei, which does not seem to be bad.
But Lei Ruili ignored Yi An, obviously he was fed up with the wayward author, coupled with the will of the big man behind him, the first decision he made was to suppress Yi An's new serial "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
This kind of behavior, even if some editors have a lot of words in their hearts, they don't dare to say it clearly, after all, they are the new editor-in-chief, and this new official always has to burn three fires when he takes office.
Lei Ruili's comic artist, it is this year's "rising star" newcomer gold award winner Nie Shenjian, last year he met Yi An, who was born out of thin air, only won the silver award, and he has always been obsessed with the gold award, so he participated again this year, and finally won the gold award as he wished, he is only twenty-four years old this year, which can be described as unlimited potential.
Lei Ruili thought that as long as he picked up Nie Shenjian, he could completely replace Yi An, so he deliberately arranged for Nie Shenjian's new serial to collide with Yi An's "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
On the one hand, he promoted Nie Shenjian's works overwhelmingly, and on the other hand, he spared no effort to suppress "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and finally the first issue of the popularity survey ranking of the two, Nie Shenjian ranked third, while Yi'an was only fifth......
Then Lei Ruili proudly announced at the editorial meeting that "The Land of Martial Arts" has produced another real comic genius, and he is Mr. Nie Shenjian, because his new serialization popularity ranking surpassed Yi An.
Lei Ruili's statement made some editors slandered, Nie Shenjian and Yi An's publicity treatment is so different, if Nie Shenjian can't surpass Yi An in the popularity ranking of the first word, then he himself will probably be ashamed.
"I actually really appreciate Mr. Yi'an's work, but his new serialization "Smiling Proud Jianghu", the quality is really not good, the number of popularity questionnaires is already very revealing, after I serve as the editor-in-chief, whether it is a rookie cartoonist or a senior cartoonist, a qiē speaks according to the results, if the popularity survey of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" continues to decline, then I will also cut this work mercilessly!" Lei said sharply.
Ding Hebei looked at Lei Ruili with a domineering face, and suddenly thought of a word, called "Tu Poor Dagger".
"The quality of Mr. Yi'an's work has declined so strictly, because there is no senior editor in charge, so if "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is cut in half, I hope he can return to the right track and use the right way to create a super popular large-length work, preferably with "Shooting the Condor" with the same world view." Lei Ruili finally said what he wanted to achieve in the end.
It's a pity that the popularity of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" did not decline at all as he imagined...... (To be continued.) )
