On November 11, 1983, which was Singles' Day, and it was also a heavy day for comic fans, Light and Shadow Publishing House purchased the copyright of "Alalei" at a price of 5 billion yen, that is, 20 million US dollars, and at the same time, the author of "Alalei", Akira Toriyama, officially joined the Light and Shadow Publishing House.
In this way, it has caused a great sensation in Japan, and there is no way that Akira Toriyama is already very popular in the eyes of Japanese comic fans, and at this time, the Light and Shadow Publishing House is basically supported by Han Ziguang alone, and although "Transformers" at this time is also popular, it is also with Han Ziguang as the guide behind it, and there is no doubt that Aoyama Gomasa and Tomiyasu Yoshihiro are still young at this time and do not have the ability to take charge alone.
Akira Toriyama is different, once Akira Toriyama joins the Light and Shadow Publishing House, not to mention anything else, the comics of "Alalei" alone can make the sales of the Light and Shadow Publishing House go to a higher level, but unfortunately, it is just more exciting that "Alalei" is directly chosen to end, and the final ending will be published in a single book, not updated in the magazine, many comic fans can't understand why "Alalei" is so popular, and will choose to end.
In fact, Han Ziguang has no choice, I have to say that the people of Shueisha are also extremely cunning, knowing Akira Toriyama's intention to leave, they are already very resolute, and they also want to end "Aralei", and naturally they also want to sell it at a good price, not to mention that it is already very good for a cartoonist to have a masterpiece in his life, and everyone is not optimistic about Akira Toriyama's new work.
There's no way, Akira Toriyama insists on wanting to create animation with China as the background, it's completely adventure animation, there are no highlights at all, and although there is a little shadow of "Alalei" in the early stage, but in terms of funny Cheng dΓΉ, it can't be compared with "Aralei" at all, and it is likely that it will be reduced to ordinary, and because of this, the high-level unanimously agreed, by the way, you can make a lot of money, why not?
It's just that the only requirement is that "Aralei" can't continue to be serialized in manga magazines, and the top management of Shueisha doesn't want to end up shooting themselves in the foot, at this time, the magazines published by the Light and Shadow Publishing House are basically bloody comics, and in fact, the competition with major publishing houses is not strong, because the audience between the magazines is not the same, but everyone has also seen the potential of hot-blooded comics.
Because of this, major publishing houses also want to open up this part of the market, after all, there are so many elements of hot-blooded comics, it is easy to imitate, and even the senior management of Shueisha has seen the idea of completely snatching away the manga fans of Light and Shadow Publishing House.
Han Ziguang didn't pay attention to this little action of Shueisha's senior management at all, because he himself was an accessory to "Aralei", and what he really valued was "Dragon Ball", which was not favored by Shueisha, at the beginning, "Dragon Ball" was indeed opened in adventure mode, and its popularity was not very high, but after the start of the world's first martial arts conference, it would be the time when "Dragon Ball" completely exploded its potential.
However, this time may be a little long, it will take about one to two years to accumulate, and the cover of the Light and Shadow Publishing House is also given a big plate, Akira Toriyama returns with a new work "Dragon Ball", setting off a new whirlwind, and the "Dragon Ball" manga is officially serialized in the "Weekly Shonen Magic" of the Light and Shadow Publishing House, some of Akira Toriyama's original comic fans, the first time to see it, but unfortunately when I saw the new content, to be honest, I was a little disappointed.
Shueisha's senior management even felt that it was the most shrewd choice not to let Akira Toriyama open a new manga, and sure enough, many manga artists only relied on their own ideas to do it, and they didn't do some market research at all, so how do they know what readers really like? Isn't it necessary for them as editors to provide advice to the author? At this time, he forcibly transformed regardless of the editor's experience, and blindly learned because of the success of the hot-blooded comics, only to lose himself and make his only shining point disappear, and at this time, the beginning of "Dragon Ball" is adventurous, funny and bloody, which seems a bit nondescript.
"President! It seems that I disappointed you, it took so much time to get so many bad reviews, I guess I will be ridiculed by many people! β
Akira Toriyama's mood at this time is also heavy, he is also full of hope for the new comics, and resolutely finished "Alalei" to create a new miracle, but the current result is not satisfactory, he is not afraid of disappointing himself, he is afraid of disappointing Han Ziguang's high hopes.
"Birdama-sensei, you don't have to have any burden, just create yourself, although the ranking on the "Weekly Shonen Magic" is not high now, but I have seen the shining point, please rest assured, this is not a consolation, but as an author's vision, please believe in yourself!"
Han Ziguang shook his head, even a little excited, now that "Dragon Ball" is being serialized in his manga magazine, it is something he didn't dare to imagine before, and in the future, should he catch the authors of "One Piece" and "Naruto"? It's really embarrassing! Wow! Ha! Ha! Ha! β¦β¦
Kazuhiko Torishima watched Han Ziguang and Toriyama Akira talk happily, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, in his opinion, Han Ziguang and Toriyama Akira are the two pillars of the Light and Shadow Publishing House, especially Han Ziguang, at this time, the Light and Shadow Publishing House basically relies on Han Ziguang alone, and Toriyama Akira is not bad at this time, but if "Dragon Ball" wants to become a real pillar, it is estimated that it will take a long time, and Han Ziguang's business at this time is getting bigger and bigger, and it is estimated that it will not be possible to devote himself to comic creation in the future. And there is no doubt that Han Ziguang is definitely one of the epoch-making figures in the comic industry.
Han Ziguang came to Japan, basically everything was solved, and at present, he didn't have time to care about the affairs of the professional baseball team, so he should hand it over to He Chaoqiong to take care of it first, not to mention that there are supervisors and coaches and others, as long as they dig up a few celebrities first. As for Han Ziguang, he is also ready to return to Xiangjiang first, because at this time, the preparations for the new movie "Love Call Transfer" are almost over.
This time, Han Ziguang went back and brought Matsuda Seiko with him by the way, because this movie needs a bit more heroines, so he is ready to count Matsuda Seiko as one, and Matsuda Seiko does not have many scenes in it, and "Chess Soul" has produced several episodes, which is enough for her to make time to come to a movie to perform, as for "Baseball Heroes", it is ready to start officially broadcasting next year, because this year's schedule is already full.
Some of the things that Han Ziguang did in Japan naturally also passed back to Xiangjiang, and other things were nothing, after all, Akira Toriyama also had a very high reputation in Japan at this time, and not many people knew about it except for Japan, and the fact that he bought a Japanese professional baseball team made Xiangjiang people exclaim.
