Chapter 143 High liquidated damages and years
Although Kakunanji is the president of Shueisha and has a lot of power in his hands, it is undoubtedly difficult to find Zhao Chen's true purpose.
In Kakunan's mind, Masami Hayada has no status at Shueisha, and he thinks that Masami Hayada has been in Shueisha for seven years, but has not achieved any success, because he has no potential as an editor or as president.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the idea of Jiao Nan Attack, the time when cartoonists want to become famous is often in the first few years of entering the comic club, because these cartoonists who have just entered the industry may have little experience, but the ideas in their minds are vast, and it is therefore why those well-known cartoonists basically became famous in the first three years. Whether it is the current Akira Toriyama and Rumiko Takahashi, or later generations of manga masters such as Yoshihiro Tomiyasu and Eiichiro Oda, the same is basically the case, and there will definitely be a manga that will make him famous in the first three years.
This Cheda Masami can be regarded as really wronged, and Shengsheng was seen as having no potential by Kakunan's attack, and Shueisha did not pay attention to it at all. But I don't know that this product will become famous in history this year because of "Wind Demon Kojiro", and then "Saint Seiya" made it popular, I don't know how much credit it will make for Shueisha, it can be said that it is a rare late bloomer.
"President, I heard what Mr. Che Tian said, he is already preparing for the next work, and I heard that it was jointly created with Mr. Zhao Chen!"
A few days later, the person who came to see Kakunan's attack was a middle-aged man who seemed to be gentle and elegant, he was the editor in charge of Masami Cheda who was originally in Shueisha, and he had cooperated with Masami Cheda for so many years, even if Masami Sada left Shueisha, the friendship between the two sides would not disappear immediately. It was also because of this that he was asked to find out the news from Masami Cheda.
"What. Have you ever asked for the name and style of the new work? ”
"It seems to be called "Wind Demon Kojiro", Mr. Cheda is better at drawing battle comics, and if this new work is not mistaken, it should be in this category.。
Hearing what his subordinate editor in charge said, Jiao Nan's face suddenly became cloudy. Recently, Tianxiasha's "Shonen soRa" has been called the best quality comic magazine by many industry insiders, and there may not be many people in the industry who say this. But if Masami Cheda's new work shines, the quality of "Shonen soRa" will undoubtedly be even better, and I am afraid that this title will really be taken away by "Shonen soRa" at that time.
Originally, the manga magazine that has been evaluated as the best quality in the industry in recent years is Shueisha's "Shonen Jump", which is why the sales of "Shonen Jump" have increased a lot in recent years, and it has always occupied the first place in sales in recent years.
But if this title is replaced by "Young soRa". Not only will the growth of "Shonen Jump" sales be greatly affected, but the sales of "Shonen soRa" under Tianxia Club will continue to rise, and I am afraid that it will not be able to compete with "Shonen Jump" in two or three years.
"That's it, you try to dig Mr. Cheda back from the Tianxia Society, it doesn't matter if the price is big, the liquidated damages Shueisha will come out!"
"But. President, we don't know how Mr. Cheda's new work is, isn't it too hasty! ”
"It's okay to cooperate with other people, but if Mr. Che Tian and Zhao Chen co-create, it is likely to be a popular comic, as long as Mr. Che Tian can be dug back, it can make up for it!"
Jiao Nan Attack sighed. If it were other comic clubs, he would go directly to dig up the pillars of those comic clubs, but unfortunately the Tianxia Club is different, because the pillar is the president of the comic club, and there are a few cartoonists under its umbrella who are famous, but basically they are all co-created with Zhao Chen to become famous, and they can't see the potential they have, plus the high liquidated damages, so they don't want to dig people. But the problem is that now is a critical moment, if you can dig up Masami Cheda back. Then you will be able to know the specific outline of the new work from Masami Cheda, and when the time comes, with the deep connections that Shueisha has, as long as it is transformed, Zhao Chen will be helpless.
When that time comes, the quality of Shueisha's Shonen Jump will undoubtedly improve. And "Young soRa" will stagnate, and compared with the two, Jiaonan's attack is indeed a good calculation.
The editor-in-charge had to do this thankless task after receiving instructions from the president to attack the south. It's just that when he knew the amount of liquidated damages set by the Tianxia Society for Masami Cheda, he had to face the corner south with a bitter face!
"What, a billion yen, or a ten-year contract, this Chetian-sensei is too stupid, how could he sign this kind of contract, this is simply a deed of sale! Have you inquired clearly, what did Mr. Cheda say? ”
When Kakunan heard the amount of liquidated damages, his forehead couldn't help but burst with bruises, but he really didn't expect that the liquidated damages would be so high for Masami Cheda.
"I asked Mr. Cheda to have a drink last night, and Mr. Cheda only spoke up when he was drunk. Mr. Che Tian said that in addition to this new work, the next work will continue to cooperate with Zhao Chen, looking at his appearance, I am quite looking forward to Zhao Chen's storyboard! ”
"Two works! No wonder, if I were him, I would choose it this way! It's just that you asked him if we really paid the liquidated damages, would he agree? ”
Seeing Jiao Nan's attacking eyes staring at him tightly, the editor in charge couldn't help but feel a little flustered, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "He said that he signed a confidentiality agreement and would not agree." ”
"The confidentiality agreement, high liquidated damages, it's really a good idea, even if you really dig up Mr. Che Tian, I'm afraid it's useless."
In his opinion, there are many cartoonists of Masami Cheda's level in Shueisha, and as long as Zhao Chen digs up a cartoonist with a similar style, he can directly replace Masami Cheda, and the biggest loss at that time is undoubtedly Shueisha. Jiaonan's attack is naturally not stupid, how could he do such an irrational thing for the sake of a moment of anger, and in the end he has no choice but to do it.
After Zhao Chen dug up Masami Cheda, just a few days later, Masami Cheda completed the first issue of the manuscript, but did not immediately hand it over to the editor in charge of him, but took the manuscript and showed it to Zhao Chen first, after all, Zhao Chen was his partner.
After gaining Zhao Chen's approval, Che Tian Zhengmei subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, this was the first time he cooperated with other cartoonists, and his heart was naturally a little up, for fear that he would not be able to pass Zhao Chen's level.
Masami Cheda then handed over the original manuscript of the first issue of "Wind Demon Kojiro" to his editor-in-charge, who knew that "Wind Demon Kojiro" was the product of the cooperation between the president and the cartoonist in front of him, so he naturally attached great importance to it. Although I think that the work I work with Zhao Chen will not be bad, I still watch it carefully.
After all, Masami Cheda has been at Shueisha for seven years, and she is no longer a novice, so she didn't feel much nervousness when she watched it as the editor-in-charge, but drank coffee leisurely on the side.
"It's good.,It's up to you.,But it's up to you to choose.,Do you use this work to enter the serialization meeting first.,Or enter the world's comic book award as a work first? If you choose the latter, I think your manga will most likely be selected. This editor in charge is not an ignorant person, and after reading the original manuscript of the first issue, a smile appeared on his originally strict face.
"I choose the World Society Comic Awards!" In the face of two choices, Masami Cheda will naturally choose the place that is most beneficial to him, that is, to use the first Tianxia Society Manga Award to preliminarily start the ranking of "Wind Demon Kojiro", and then start serialization.
The main reason for this is that "Wind Demon Kojiro" is also Zhao Chen's work, I believe that Zhao Chen's fame will more or less bring some convenience in the selection of the Tianxia Society Comic Awards, which is the biggest advantage of this work, and it can be regarded as taking advantage of Zhao Chen's potential. What's more, with the quality of "Wind Demon Kojiro", the possibility of being selected is already good.
As for Zhao Chen's side, he naturally won't refuse, he naturally doesn't care about the increase in fame of the Tianxia Society's comic awards, the main thing is to throw stones and ask for directions, and start the fame of the Tianxia Society's comic awards, so as to attract more cartoonists to participate.
When Masami Cheda was preparing to participate in the Tianxia Society Manga Awards, Zhao Chen finally received a good news from the Studiodeen Animation Agency, which in his opinion was enough to speed up the exhibition process of the Tianxia Society.
