"Ai Yazawa's editor has asked the editor-in-chief to be in charge for the time being, and I must appease her, in my opinion, her value is far higher than that of Koyama Takama, and she is an important pillar of our Hibiscus Society now and in the future. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"I know, but the financial thing ......"

"Don't think about that for now, what Vice President Kubo needs to do now is to stabilize the editors and manga artists, and if anyone leaves and triggers a chain reaction, then Hibiscus will really be over."

Yoshishi Kubo nodded and didn't say anything more, of course he understood the seriousness of the matter.

"Also, Midorikawa and Hakaino, who I signed as the master, didn't leave, right?"

Yoshishi Kubo thought about it, and then remembered that a few months ago, Shizu Miyahara took the lead in signing two young female manga artists, and now she is working as an assistant to manga artists.

"No ......"

He didn't understand why Shizune Miyahara cared about the two manga artist assistants now, even if they had a good future prospect, but the assistant who didn't even start a serialization now had nothing to do with solving the current problems of the Hibiscus Society.

Hearing that the two people didn't leave, Miyahara Jing exhaled slightly this time, "One last thing, about our next serialization issue, is the cartoonist called 'Warring States General Soul' still there?" ”

"Aida Seiichi-sensei? In. ”

This work called "Warring States General Soul" is obviously a follow-up work of the "Rogue Kenshin" that has just become popular, and the story is nondescript, but the manga artist's drawing skills are not bad, and the style is more in line with Miyahara Jing's requirements.

"What about the universe beyond space?"

"It's gone."

"Gone? The assistant in charge of this manga should be there, right? The editor-in-chief of Kubo informed the Aida Seiichi teacher and his assistants, as well as the assistants of the Universe Chrono Department, that Midorikawa and Hakaino should come over as soon as possible. ”

"As soon as possible? Now? ”

"Right now."

"I see."

The editor-in-chief of Kubo had a general idea of Miyahara's thoughts, and it seemed that he wanted to drum up a few new manga before the deadline for the next issue, and it was a feasible idea to try to make up as many manga as possible without caring about the quality. As for the reader's reaction at that time...... Let's take one step at a time. No

He didn't know that Miyahara's goal was more than just making up the numbers.

Yoshishi Kubo's movements were fast, and sure enough, before noon, he had already summoned the people that Miyahara Shizune was looking for.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Miyahara Shizu, the son of President Miyahara, because President Miyahara has no way to govern for the time being, and now the affairs of the Hibiscus Club are in charge of President Miyahara Shizusa." Yoshishi Kubo introduced himself to several manga artists and assistants.

Naturally, the cartoonists and assistants already knew what was going on at the Hibiscus Society, but they were still a little curious about why they were gathered together now.

"This is the author of the Sengoku Shogun Soul, Mr. Aida Seiichi, and his assistants Ryota Kato and Fushimi-kun Watanabe."

"The four here are rookie manga artists Nahoko Ueda, Katsura Ono, Chika Haumino, Yukikawa Midorikawa, before Ueda and Ono-kun were assistants to the universe time, and Hakaino and Midorikawa were assistants to Interhigh."

Miyahara nodded, Midorikawa Yuki and Hakai no Chika were signed by him after he happened to see the recruitment materials of the Hibiscus Society, and he signed them with the intention of not picking up the cheapness and not picking it up, and now he is also seeing the two for the first time.

Although the two of them will be god-level figures in the shoujo manga industry in the future, but now they are just small assistants, and Miyahara Shizun only glanced at him, and then shifted his gaze to the only cartoonist among them who has a work in serialization.

The few who are working as assistants are all young people in their twenties, and Aida Seiichi, the Sengoku general, looks to be nearly forty years old.

Miyahara Shizune looked at Aida Seiichi, and then said: "Everyone may know about the problems that happened to our Hibiscus Society, and frankly, we have reached the point where we have to suspend the publication, but in fact, we can't afford to suspend the publication at all, and we have gathered everyone together because I value everyone's talents, and I hope you can help me solve the current crisis." ”

Aida Nariichi saw that the young president had been looking at him, knowing that he might have said this mainly to himself, so he quickly nodded.

Miyahara Shizune didn't give time to refute or agree with his words, so she immediately said: "I've seen the soul of Mr. Aida, Mr. Aida's painting skills are good, and the overall style of the work is also very good, but I tell you the truth, in my opinion, it is difficult for this work to become popular, the theme is obscure, our magazine is a teenager and girl, and the theme of Mr. Aida's theme is difficult for them to understand, and they will not understand the deep meaning expressed in Mr. Aida's works." ”

Of course, Miyahara Shizune can't directly say to Aida Seiichi that your manga doesn't have a story at all, and the rhythm is messy, so it's strange that it can be sold.

But in fact, that's what he meant, and I believe this Aida-sensei also understands the meaning of his words.

"Of course I know, it's just ......" Aida Seiichi said with a wry smile, he has been drawing comics for more than ten years, and he thinks his drawings are good, but there is no way, his imagination and storytelling ability are not good, so he didn't have a representative work at all, he came to Hibiscus Society with the purpose of retirement, in fact, he has no confidence in his comics.

Cartoonists who dare to come up with their works for serialization will naturally have a certain degree of confidence in their paintings, but some cartoonists are like this, obviously their drawing skills are not bad, but they just can't conceive a good story, and they have nothing to do with becoming popular and selling out.

"Then I'll just say it, I don't have time to go around in circles with everyone now, does Mr. Aida mind working with others?"

"Cooperation?" Aida Seiichi didn't quite understand what kind of cooperation method Miyahara was talking about.

"So, Aita-sensei knows about clamp?"

"Heard ......"

Clamp is a manga group pen name, this all-female manga group was founded in the mid-eighties, and now they have achieved good results, it can be said that they have made a name for themselves, and because this form of manga group has rarely been successful before, and because they refuse to belong to a single publishing house, even industry giants such as Tokadogawa Shoten, Kodansha, Shueisha, etc., their work is not only to draw manga, but also involves work ranging from animation design to kimono design picture books, wedding dress design, jewelry design, writing novels, novel illustrations, game card design, etc., so few people who are a manga artist of the level of Aida Seiichi have never heard of clamp.

Hearing Miyahara Shizune say this, Aida Seiichi immediately reacted.

"Miyahara-kun means that we also set up such a manga group?"

"Yes, so I asked Aida-sensei, if someone was willing to be in charge of the storyboard, would you be willing to draw?"

"Then first of all, it depends on the quality of the storyboard...... "Aida Seiichi said with some embarrassment, if the story of the original work is too bad, he doesn't want to paint, if the quality of the story he conceived is about the same, then he would rather draw his own story, and if the storyboard is indeed a good story far beyond his level...... He'd love to paint, but would anyone give this kind of story to himself?

"The storyboard and character design are available now, and Mr. Aida can take a look at it before making a decision." As he spoke, Miyahara picked up a file bag, and then pulled out a stack of drawings from the file bag, which he split in two, the first half to Aida Seiichi and the other half to Kubo Editor-in-Chief.

Aida didn't pay much attention to the storyboard at first, but he was quickly fascinated by the story, and he quickly read the part in his hand, and then waited dryly to exchange it with the editor-in-chief Kubo.

After the two of them finished exchanging, Aida Seiichi looked a little anxious and said, "Young President, can you really give me this story to draw?" With the consent of the original author? ”

"So Aida-sensei is willing to draw? Don't worry about the original author. ”

"Please leave it to me!"

"That's great, with Aida-sensei joining, then we have the main writer." Miyahara said with a smile, "The detailed agreement will be discussed with you by the editor-in-chief of Kubo later, and if everything is negotiated, then this work will definitely be handed over to Aida-sensei, but one thing we must say in advance is that the author's rights and interests of the work represent only the original work and not Aida-sensei's paintings." ”

Jing Miyahara, who has been cheated by his cartoonist once, has definitely grown knowledge, and the so-called "agreement" will definitely be more restrictive than before.

Hearing Miyahara Shizune say this, Aida Seiichi entered a state of thinking again for a while.

Seeing that Aida Chengyi has some gains and losses, at this time Kubo Yoshishi raised the storyboard that he had finished reading in his hand, and then said: "Judging from the storyboard, the quality of this work is very high, if the quality of the painting is good, it already has the qualification to sell well, although I don't know the complete story, but only from the beginning of the part, the setting of the world view is concise and complete, and the rhythm of the story is also very good, it can be said that it is only one step away from success, what is there to hesitate about Mr. Aida?" ”

Although Yoshishi Kubo's statement is a bit exaggerated, he is indeed more optimistic about this manga, and he still has the vision of being the editor-in-chief for decades, and since the storyboard was taken out by Miyahara Shizune, this work will definitely be serialized in his own magazine in the end, and of course he will help persuade Aida Chengichi.

If it's a duo of original and drawn manga artists, the general income is fifty-fifty points, according to Miyahara Shizun will not harm the interests of painting, Aida Seiichi should be concerned about the original work to require the author's rights and interests of the work to represent this condition, which means that he will be kicked out at any time after the work is on fire.

Miyahara knew that this manga artist who had achieved nothing before was completely moved in the face of such a good opportunity, and it was not difficult to persuade such a person.
