Osamu Tezuka jumped ship, and the most nervous person was not Li Shanhe or Hiroshi Fukazawa, but the editor-in-chief of "Shonen Sunday" Sakamoto Tsushima. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a bang, and the door to the president's office was knocked open. With the anxious shout of the secretary, Sakamoto rushed in with red eyes and threw a freshly baked magazine in front of the wide desk:

"President, Osamu Tezuka moved to "Young HereWeGo! 》？ Why didn't I receive the message? I'm the editor-in-chief of Teen Sunday and Teen Black Feeding the Dogs, so I should have been the first to be informed! ”

The latest issue of the magazine is "Shonen Black Feeding the Dog", and the cover is in bold red letters, predicting that the next issue will have Osamu Tezuka's work on "Shonen Sunday", which will be transferred here for serialization.

The president frowned and said, "Editor-in-chief Sakamoto, calm down, otherwise I'm going to ask the security guard to ask you out." ”

Sakamoto bit his lip, took a step back and bowed, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper." I beg your pardon for the presumptuousness. ”

The president pushed away the boss's chair, picked up a cigarette and lit it, and snorted coldly: "The several plans you have made have all failed, and now "Shonen Jump" has never been stronger. What position do you have accusing me of doing so? ”

Sakamoto said anxiously: "I can't argue with the failure of the plan. But are you going to give up on Shonen Sunday? Osamu Tezuka is the author of "Young Sunday"! Without him, our sales would have plummeted! ”

The president didn't answer directly, but pulled out a report from a stack of documents next to the table, threw it over, and said, "Do you know how much the sales of this issue of "Shonen Black Feeding the Dog" are worse than "Shonen Jump"? ”

Sakamoto paused, looked at the numbers on the report, and said with difficulty: "...... Lakh. ”

"That's right, a hundred thousand. Do you know what a big gap this is? Ten martial arts stadiums can't hold so many people! If we don't want to come up with some countermeasures, we'll lose this time! The president snorted coldly, "It's absolutely impossible for me to let Shueisha go out independently!" Successive presidents have been pioneering and enterprising, but when they come to me, they are weakened? I can't accept such an ending! ”

"However, it is really ...... to let Tezuka relocate"

The president interrupted her: "I have already asked the marketing department to calculate, Osamu Tezuka has about 200,000 loyal readers, as long as they all come to buy "Young Black Feeding Dog", we can turn defeat into victory and gain the upper hand again!" ”

"You're bent on doing it! We can't guarantee that these readers will be loyal enough to buy "Young Black Feeding the Dog"! "And, have you ever wondered what will happen to Shonen Sunday?" Lose this trump card and we'll fall below a million! Nor does it have the throne of the number one seller! You're putting the cart before the horse! ”

The president said calmly: "Your news has fallen behind. According to the latest statistics, the sales of the last issue of "Shonen Sunday" were 980,000. ”

Sakamoto Tsushima's face turned pale, like a retail investor who heard the stock market crash, and took a step back in disbelief.

Why is this happening? Am I really making the wrong choice? After so many years of hard work, it collapsed all of a sudden?

The president's tone slowed down and reassured, "Don't worry, Tezuka-sensei's transfer of serialized magazines is nothing more than a change of left hand for right hand." They are all magazines owned by Shogakukan, so there won't be much loss. ”

Sakamoto closed his eyes in pain: "No, you forgot, according to our gambling agreement, if "Young Black Feeding the Dog" loses...... All manga serialized on it will be assigned to Shueisha. ”

The president's face sank suddenly, and Sakamoto Tsuima's words touched the pain in his heart.

But so what? Do you want me to watch the other person overtake?

"Nonsense! I'm not going to lose to that useless bunch of garbage! Editor-in-chief Sakamoto, if you have time to complain about me, why don't you visit Tezuka-sensei and discuss a wonderful serial! ”

The president unceremoniously ordered the eviction of customers.

Kicked out of the president's office, Sakamoto lost his soul, and the sound of high-heeled shoes echoing in the empty corridor, empty and dull.

The president is really crazy, and in order to prevent Shueisha from becoming independent, he will actually damage the company's pillar business. Couldn't he tell which was more important, the trunk or the branches?

Thoughts swirled and swirled in her mind, and gradually, her eyes began to identify again.

"No, I'm a horse, a horse who never gives up. My winning streak can't be terminated here......"

"I can't defeat the enemy, so let him be a part of me!"

There was infighting in the elementary school hall, and the troublemakers turned their backs.

On the Shueisha side, however, it was peaceful.

The news of Osamu Tezuka's job change has spread throughout the publishing house, but no one thinks they will lose.

Everything is in the way of the invincible teacher Ai Luo Wuyong! As long as Mr. Ai Luo Wuyong does not fall, what can Osamu Tezuka do? It's been so many times, and this time is no exception!

Li Shanhe is not so optimistic. He originally planned to cut the load of the series, but he didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing again.

Not to mention...... That's Osamu Tezuka, the creator god of the manga industry, and the fans are overwhelming! I'm just at the stage where the middle god is moving towards the great god, and Isamu Tezuka is just facing each other so early, and the odds of winning are not high.

At this time, everyone was in the conference room, discussing operations. Editor-in-chief Fukasawa analyzed on the whiteboard:

"According to the reliable information we have received, this transfer should be genuine. In the worst-case scenario, Tezuka's 200,000 readers are not many, and if a lot of them are transferred to "Shonen Black Feeding the Dog", the sales of "Shonen Sunday" will be 780,000. On the other hand, our current sales volume, if you remove the water, it is ......"

"660,000!" Maiko Saotome said, her eyes lit up, and the boring report had never been so dazzling!

This is not just a crisis, but a precious opportunity!

The other editors had similar expressions, full of blind optimism:

"It seems that we will not only surpass "Young Black Feeding Dog" this time, but even "Young Sunday" will be killed!"

"The number one throne in the comic book industry is so close to us?!"

"Haha, the editor-in-chief's birthday wish is about to come true so soon!"

Someone said, "Wait, isn't there still Kodansha's Shonen Magazine?" That's a magazine with 900,000 sales! ”

"Ha, Kodansha, it's undergoing reform, and its own positioning is chaotic, so there's nothing to be afraid of!"

Li Shanhe looked at the report and scratched his head: "Only dropped so much?" We have all risen to more than 600,000, but "Young Sunday" has only dropped by about 200,000? ”

Toda from the marketing department said, "Teacher, you may not know that magazine sales are not absolutely mutually exclusive, and readers who read one book do not prevent them from buying other magazines." ”

Li Shanhe nodded: "In other words, the 200,000 readers that Tezuka can drive may not all be converted into the numbers of "Young Black Feeding the Dog"?" ”

Fukasawa nodded: "Theoretically, that's true, but, teacher, you must not be careless. Do you know why "Shonen Magazine" has been pressed under the elementary school hall for so many years and cannot turn over? ”

Li Shanhe was curious: "Why?" ”

Fukasawa said with a serious face: "This involves a well-known public case in the circle——"

Many years ago, most of Osamu Tezuka's works were serialized in Kodansha's "Shonen Magazine", and they also surpassed "Shonen Sunday" with a leading sales of more than 100,000 yuan. However, just when they were proud, Osamu Tezuka's new work "Three Magics", the character design actually collided with Kodansha's other internally animated "Cosmic Boy".

Osamu Tezuka thinks that the other party has copied his own settings, but behind the other party is a giant animation company, and Kodansha is also very inactive in defending rights. Tezuka was angry and changed his court, and even the disciples of the Tokiwaso family also jumped ship, which directly led to the decline of "Shonen Magazine".

After Li Shanhe heard this, he couldn't help but smack his tongue, he deserved to be the God of Creation, and he alone decided the victory or defeat of high-end combat power.

"Therefore, the sales of Osamu Tezuka are absolutely guaranteed. Back then, his readership effect was 100,000, and now this number will only be more, not less! If we don't do anything, we will definitely be overtaken by "Young Black Feeding Dogs"! ”

Speaking of which, everyone looked at Li Shanhe with expectant eyes, hoping that he could come up with another powerful work and fight back Tezuka's attack.

What a hassle...... Li Shanhe scratched his head, it seems that the matter of cutting the serialization will have to wait for a while. (To be continued.) )
