Chapter 31: The Plan for Harming People (I)
In addition to the above, there is another one, who is not unhappy at the moment, but he will be especially unhappy next. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Well, quite, especially unhappy.
Miura Shosho.
Ryota Miura, this name belongs to the successor of Miura Shosha......
Of course, he is still a young man in his twenties, and now Miura Shosha can still call the shots of his father in the prime of the Spring and Autumn Period, and he can only interfere in his own publishing house, just doing chores and working as an assistant to learn how to manage this publishing house by the way, this is so that he can inherit this business smoothly in the future.
This role and work are similar to the previous Miyahara Shizu, and Miyahara Shizune at that time was also following Miyahara Yuichi - so no matter how much he had ideas at that time, it was difficult to change the Hibiscus Society, because it was Miyahara Yuichi who was in charge at that time, not him Miyahara Shizu.
When Miyahara Shizune really started to let go of his work, it was also when Yuichi Miyahara couldn't handle the work, although it was a bit inappropriate to compare a small business to a dynasty, but a family business like Hibiscus Society or Miura Shosha was essentially the same thing, with a thousand families and one person in charge, and there was an element of autocracy in management.
The president's son is completely different from the president himself.
Didn't anyone say, "What I give you is yours, and what you don't give you can't be robbed." ”
Okay, let's get down to business.
Because of last year's incident, there was a "commercial" battle between the Hibiscus Society and the Miura Shoshosho, and in the process of attacking and defending each other, neither side got any benefits, and the Hibiscus Club almost broke the gap, and the Miura Shosha lost its wife and broke its troops, and they were forced to cut off the shoujo manga magazine that had just been published for several issues, and then retreated back to their traditional field.
Some of the cartoonists and editors, who are props for the game between the two sides, have become the targets of the Hibiscus Society's anger, and they have borne the damage of the desired degree, which can be described as an unbearable weight of life.
The two companies, which were originally unrelated, have since become enemies of life and death because of the dispute between Miura Shosho and the dispute that they took the initiative to provoke.
Because in the process of litigation, Hibiscus Society moved out of Daisuke Nakahara, a strong support from the lawyer community, Miura was caught off guard, although it can't be said that they lost everything, but they did have a big dragon slaughtered, so it is impossible for them to underestimate Hibiscus Society from now on.
Miura Shosha began to pay attention to the news and trends related to the Hibiscus Society, because they felt that the other party would retaliate in the future.
It's not just that Miura Shosha has persecution paranoia, but it has a scientific theoretical basis.
Let's take a look at what Hibiscus did at the beginning, when the two sides were in a lawsuit, Hibiscus could have taken Miura Shosha to court, but they didn't do it, they just beat the weakest cartoonists one by one, with a resolute attitude of never giving up on any betrayer.
From this matter, the Miura Shosho has roughly guessed the attitude of the principal of the Hibiscus Society: to treat the enemy, either do not start, or ruthlessly, kill everything, clean and fast, and leave no sequelae.
Well, in fact, Miyahara Jing is not as ruthless as they think, but she has always adhered to the attitude of "people don't offend me, I don't offend people".
In short,Some time ago, although Miura Books attached importance to the actions of the Hibiscus Society,But in fact, I don't think the other party can pose any threat to myself.,The other party is busy expanding the sales and influence of its own shoujo comics.,After the failure of the Miura Books to try the girl's manga,Continue to focus on your own family's reasoning suspense comics.,Essentially, this is also a shonen comic.,So although the two sides belong to the same comic publishing house,But in terms of readers and audiences,It's not too conflict.。
But things suddenly changed, and at the beginning of this year, Hibiscus suddenly began to sell semi-monthly shonen manga.
If this is a normal expansion of the publishing house, then the next problem is for Miura Books to realize something.
On this juvenile comic called me,There are actually four reasoning and suspense works.,Although some of them are horror and thriller themes.,But there's no doubt that there are four such works out of 20.,It's a bit of a big violation in terms of proportion!
Miura Shosho consciously understood the intentions of Hibiscus Society, but they were only taking strict precautions, because in terms of sales, Hibiscus Society's new magazine was only a quarter of Miura's, and in terms of monthly sales, it was only half, so there was nothing to make a fuss about.
Then the earthquake happened, and when Miura Shosha's attention was focused on the earthquake, something magical happened.
Suddenly, the world was full of news from the Hibiscus Society, and their shonen manga had been changed to a weekly magazine for some time, and the sales of each issue skyrocketed to 400,000 copies.
Miura Shosha was shocked.
What's going on?
Isn't this scientific?
I haven't played like this before, have you?
President Miura immediately wanted to rush to the Hibiscus Society, rushed into Miyahara Shizu's office, and then grabbed him by the collar and said: Ball, it's not like this!! You guys have a foul.
However, now that it is a fait accompli, the rise of the Hibiscus Society seems to be unstoppable, and for a while Miura's side is also a little chaotic.
"Dad,I think you're taking this matter too seriously.,Although we've competed with them before.,Now the other party is in a big trend.,But that doesn't mean they can really take us.,What we focus on is reasoning comics.,The other party is obviously doing the traditional royal comics.,They can't do anything with me.,Besides,Look at each other's reasoning comics.,Tsk,The events are clearly at the level of elementary school students.,Even if they have the intention to hit us on the reasoning comics.,But what is the use of this level of reasoning.。
In the office of President Miura Books, Ryota Miura expressed his opinion somewhat nonchalantly, and he didn't understand why his father attached so much importance to Hibiscus Society.
What if their magazines sell well? No matter how good it is, can it be better than the boy jump? But even if it's a juvenile jump, can it have any more bad effects on their publishing house?
Because we have been engaged in unfair competition before, it is impossible for the other party to be indifferent when we encounter this kind of thing, and people are vindictive!
President Miura didn't say this, he just opened the drawer on the side of the desk, took out a pack of cigarettes, then took out one and stuffed it into his mouth, lit it and took a deep breath, and then exhaled another puff of smoke, and then said: "Let's not talk about the difference in the segmentation of the readership, last year's hibiscus society was weak, but at this time, the hibiscus society has comprehensively surpassed us in terms of circulation and profitability, as long as there is money, they want to do something to us without any problem, There's always something to think of, like we did last year. ”
This topic made President Miura a little irritable, and smoking could not calm his mood and thoughts, so he frowned and threw the cigarette into the ashtray on the table.
"And you haven't figured out the essence of the problem, reasoning comics reasoning comics, although literally reasoning is in the front and comics are in the back, but in fact, such works are comics first and then they have to talk about reasoning, and there are very few reasoning comics that really win purely by reasoning, and now the hottest reasoning comics Detective Conan can't be said to win by reasoning...... In short, these four works of the Hibiscus Society, whether it is the characters, the style of painting, or the atmosphere shaping and rendering, are of excellent quality, and we must be careful. ”
"But, let's not say if they have any intention of retaliating against us, and even if they do, I can't think of any feasible way for the other party to buy off cartoonists like we did. It doesn't work, the contract between us and the cartoonist is very strict, and there is no loophole to exploit. Ryota Miura retorted.
"I don't know what they're going to do, but if they can think of using the earthquake to spread the word, it means that the president of the Hibiscus Society, Miyahara, who is still a high school student, is a very thoughtful person, and maybe he really has some sinister tricks...... You have to learn this well, although I don't want to admit it, but the other party is just a high school student, and he can play against me, in fact, I haven't taken advantage of it so far, which is much stronger than what you demand. President Miura admonished.
"Understood, Dad."
President Miura nodded with satisfaction, he thought that his son was really taught, but he didn't realize the resentment that flashed in the other party's eyes.
In fact, Miyahara Jing has indeed planned to deal with Miura, and the other party actually guessed half right, his move is not insidious at all, but it is indeed a bit damaged.
………………
Let's talk about Miyahara Shizu's side.
“ucc……”
After reconfirming the name and address of the café, Miyahara pushed the door open and walked in.
He's here today.
"Guest, do you need to help you put your luggage?" The waiter asked Shizune Miyahara, who had just entered the door.
"Uh, thank you." Shizune Miyahara handed his luggage to the other party.
Yes, when I came to the coffee shop, Miyahara Jing was still carrying a big bag of things in his hand, and now it was early spring outside, although it was a little cold, but he didn't wear the same as a zongzi, but he just wore it like a zongzi.
It's very warm in the shop.
So after handing over the luggage to the adaptation student, Miyahara Jing immediately took off the layers of coats on her body.
After glancing around the store, he found the person he was looking for in a booth in the smoking area.
A lady who has had a relationship.
"Yakushiji Lady, I'm sorry, I'm late."
Miyahara said in an apologetic tone as she walked to the seat.
At this time, the other party was sitting there a little bored, flipping through a fashion magazine in one hand and a lady's cigarette in the other.
Hey, why are there so many smokers in the characters that appear today?
The temperature in the store was very high, and the lady was wearing only a shirt on her upper body, looking down from the perspective of Shizune Miyahara...... Then he could understand why the other party was harassed by the little hooligan at that time, even if it was not her face, but her figure......
In short, it was as if the other party had just run out of the set of "Tawawa of the Moon". (To be continued.) )
