Chapter 328. If you beg me, I won't come back! (4100 words)

To be honest, Tsukasa Higashino was a little surprised when he received that the pillar of the New Iwatsuki Publishing House, "Research and Search Team", was urgently called to stop the serialization, and even the release of the single book was canceled.

In Japan, there are two main ethical communities, namely the Japan Society for Publication Ethics and the Publication Ethics Symposium.

The members of the former are the Japan Book Publishing Association, the Japan Magazine Association, the Japan Publishing Association, and the Japan Federation of Bookstore Business Associations.

The latter is composed of the Ethics Committee and the Manga Issue.

In other words, these two publishing ethics communities control the publication of books by Japanese publishers.

But these two ethical organizations are basically indifferent to each other.

Because in essence, they don't belong to government agencies, but to institutions in the publishing industry, which in a derogatory term is actually equivalent to self-theft.

So basically every publishing house publishes a journal, they will turn a blind eye and will not really scrutinize it at all.

Otherwise, some black-hearted publishing houses in Japan would still be able to allow the publication of autobiographies of some murderers? Could it be that the autobiography of a murderer is psychologically beneficial to teenagers?

The reason for this is that the two major ethical organizations are not government agencies.

As long as there is something that can make money and has a topic, it can be published.

That's why Tsukasa Higashino was surprised.

This Horikoshi Hanhei... Belch... How did this self-inflicted comic book author end up so miserably?

Even the single book sale has been canceled, which is a big problem.

As we all know, the main income of a comic book author comes from the sale of a single book of comics, and even if the work is animated, the money earned is not as much as one-tenth of the sales of a single book.

This is equivalent to cutting off the financial road of Horikoshi Hanpei.

Higashino Tsukasa thought about it and couldn't figure it out in the past, so he simply used the power of the Internet to scan the comments on the Internet that faced this matter.

Then he understood.

It turned out that Horikoshi Hanpei adapted this year's particularly controversial case into the plot of the manga and forcibly consumed the deceased once.

This behavior is a bit malicious, and because "Chiyo" by Shiniwazuki Publishing House belongs to the manga magazine sold nationwide, it is widely disseminated.

So the fact that Horikoshi Hanpei forcibly made fun of the deceased was known to the family of the deceased.

The families of the victims, who are still immersed in the death of their daughter, are naturally very angry at this filthy and filthy behavior.

They sent several lawyer's letters directly to the editorial department of Chiyo, and also expressed the hope that Horikoshi Hanpei would apologize in public to his dead daughter.

And the editorial department of "Chiyo" also handled it very quickly, forcibly stopping the serialization of Horikoshi Hanpei's "Research and Search Team", and also issued an announcement to apologize.

This should have been the end of the matter.

As long as Horikoshi Hanpei admits his mistake and says that he is actually an 'unintentional mistake', he didn't mean to joke about the victims... This is the end of the day.

As a result, I don't know who dug up the matter posted by Horikoshi Hanpei on social media two days ago against the three principles of Higashino Tsukasa's manga - this thing is still a habitual offender! It's not an unintentional mistake at all!

The new hatred and old hatred, coupled with the fact that Horikoshi Hanpei had no intention of apologizing in public at all, made many passers-by who were watching also angry.

After all, everyone has a conscience, and when I see someone joking about the tragedy of the girl being abused for 41 days, some people can't bear it.

The deceased is great.

This is a common phrase in every country.

And because of Horikoshi Hanpei's brainless words and deeds, this fire burned to the ethics associations of the two major publishing houses.

The two major publishing houses had no intention of stopping the serialization of Horikoshi's Hanhei monograph.

But when the media and the Internet exposed those remarks he blatantly posted on social media...

They were also a little speechless.

It's just a pig teammate! You can't protect it if you want to!

Something that could have been brought over with a sentence of 'unintentional mistake, not intentional', but you still left this kind of handle on social media?

If you look for death yourself, then you can't blame others.

The two major ethics associations immediately canceled the serialization of Horikoshi Hanpei's single book as a way to apologize to the angry public.

When he saw this, Tsukasa Higashino couldn't help but shake his head.

This Horikoshi Hanpei is inevitably too capable of death, right?

It is already unforgivable to joke about the victims.

As a result, you didn't get rid of the dirty traces before you did this... And no wonder you deserve to die.

Higashino Tsukasa was shaking his head, and there was actually something strange in his heart.

It stands to reason that the average adult male should not be as brainless as Horikoshi Hanpei...

After all, Horikoshi Hanpei's behavior is childish at best, and at worst it is a giant baby, and he doesn't think about the consequences of doing things and talking at all.

Sure enough, there are still a lot of strange things in this world, and they can't be measured by common sense.

But to be honest, aside from Horikoshi Hanpei, Tsukasa Higashino has actually become the biggest beneficiary of this matter in a sense.

The biggest difference is that many media reporters have published articles like this-

Also a manga author, Higashino-sensei contrasts with Horikoshi Hanpei. ’

The contrast at the beginning is the three principles proposed by Tsukasa Higashino, the attitude of respecting the victims, and the behavior of Horikoshi Hanpei who has no respect and takes the deceased for consumption.

Later, this comparison was changed by various media reporters and even netizens.

What's the comparison between Tsukasa Higashino and Horikoshi Hanpei manga who looks better. ''Comparison of the painting skills of Tsukasa Higashino and Hanpei Horikoshi'...

In the back, the magic change is even more excessive, and it directly compares the appearance of Higashino Tsukasa and Horikoshi Banping'...

Comparing these various magic versions, many readers have found out... There's no comparison at all.

Drawing comics can't compare to Tsukasa Higashino, his appearance is not as good as Tsukasa Higashino, and even his ability to make money is not as good as Tsukasa Higashino, what is the value of Horikoshi Hanpei's existence?

Under all kinds of voices, Tsukasa Higashino's status among manga authors seems to have been raised to a height that he himself could not imagine.

Even Hosokawa Koharu called, saying that it would be better for Tsukasa Higashino not to come to the publishing house in person to deliver the manuscript in person in the future, because the front of the publishing house has been occupied by Tsukasa Higashino's fans.

This made Tsukasa Higashino really unexpected.

The reason why he proposed the three principles of manga creation was simply to pass on the thoughts of the old man Osamu Tezuka in his previous life, and he didn't want to become famous through this incident at all.

It can only be said that Horikoshi Hanpei is still relatively powerful, and before he killed himself, he desperately lifted his hand to Tsukasa Higashino.

And for such a person, of course, Higashino Tsukasa also made up for him on social media with a smile and made him die faster.

Higashino Tsukasa was relaxed and happy, not only waiting for the release date of the single book, but also inexplicably picking up a large piece of pie that fell from the sky.

As the editor-in-chief of the comic department of Shiniwazuki Publishing House, Seo was tormented by the divine operation of his pig teammates this time, and his scalp was numb.

Originally, he also wanted to operate it through the sale of Horikoshi Hanpei's "Research and Search Team" single book, at least to make Horikoshi Hanpei's fame go to another level.

The result?

Horikoshi not only killed himself, but their editorial department also had to find a manga that could replace his work.

It's a personal killing.

After Horikoshi Hanpei's solo show, the morale of the Shin-Iwazuki Publishing House, which had been gradually rising, also suffered a heavy blow.

It's really a model of one person bringing down the entire editorial department.

But...

"Or are we editors not serious about reviewing the manuscript ourselves."

Editor-in-chief Seo sighed deeply.

Writers who feel that they are pillars of the bench let their guard down and do not take the review seriously, which is a common occurrence among editors.

In a sense, they also have to bear some of the responsibility themselves.

Moreover...

Recalling the scene when the victim's family questioned themselves and Shiniwazuki Publishing House with tears in their eyes, Editor-in-Chief Seo's chest also ached.

Although as the editor-in-chief, he has to think about the publishing house.

But Horikoshi Hanhei unscrupulously joked about the deceased, which undoubtedly touched the bottom line of Editor-in-Chief Seo.

He sat at his desk and thought about it for a long time, before finally calling the deputy editor-in-chief and the heads of the major editorial teams to announce what he was thinking.

"I decided to cut the "Investigation and Search Team" in half, what do you think?"

“... Are you kidding? Editor-in-chief of Seo? ”

One of the editorial team leaders below looked up in disbelief.

"It's true that the "Research and Search Team" has lost a lot of fans because of this incident, but even so, it is still the pillar work of our Shiniwatsuki Publishing House. As long as you take the time to operate, the public opinion storm will definitely calm down... This is still a work that can make money. ”

As the editorial team leader said, "Research and Search Team" is the pillar work of the New Iwazuki Publishing House, and if it is cut in half, it will definitely be a big loss for them New Iwazuki Publishing House.

But Editor-in-Chief Seo has clearly taken this into account.

He shook his head and continued: "I've already thought about it, I can find a replacement if the work is gone, even if the pillar work is gone, it's the same. ”

But... What if the people are gone?

Editor-in-chief Seo asked herself.

A young girl was abused, assaulted, and finally sealed in a cement pillar before her death...

What is the mood of her family?

"To be honest, I think Higashino-sensei's three principles of manga are very good, before you learn to draw comics, you must first learn the principles of being a human being."

Editor-in-chief Seo looked back at the head of the editorial team who had just spoken: "These three principles apply not only to manga, but also to publishing houses... At least that's what I thought. ”

Editor-in-chief Seo got to where he is now because of his love for manga, and he can't stand Horikoshi's half-flat behavior.

"But how can we find the next pillar comic?" Another head of the editorial team asked.

"Our new Iwazuki Publishing House is a giant publishing house, and it also has a lot of excellent comic book authors, so it's a big deal to dig out new pillar authors... Editors, don't underestimate the strength of our publishing house. ”

Editor-in-chief Seo said this, and at the end, he added a boost to the group of editors: "Don't worry, if the sales are affected because I can't find the author of the pillar, I will take all the responsibility, and I will take the initiative to resign." ”

Belch...

The editors below glanced left and right, and the opposition suddenly became smaller.

After all, Editor-in-Chief Seo has said everything about this.

"Then it's decided." Editor-in-chief Seo glanced around, and saw that no one continued to object, so he simply made a decision: "Cut the "Research and Search Team" in half, and at the same time, terminate all cooperation with the manga author Horikoshi Hanpei. ”

"Yes!"

Now that the decision has been made, the editors below did not hesitate and responded in unison.

If you should find the legal department, go to the legal department, and if you should notify Horikoshi Hanpei, you will notify the other party, and there will be a replacement work for next week's "Research and Search Team"... It's a lot of work to do.

They were busy in an instant.

Looking at the serious work of this group of editors, the editor-in-chief of Seo was also inexplicably pleased.

If he really can't find a work that can serve as a pillar of "Chiyo", he will abide by his speech at the meeting today and take the initiative to resign and take responsibility.

But until then...

"Let's make an apology call to the victim's family first."

Editor-in-chief Seo sighed.

He never persuaded Horikoshi Hanpei to apologize in public.

And this is the most important reason why he is determined to stop working with the other party.

After all, from the perspective of being a person, Horikoshi Hanpei still has too many shortcomings.

For this reason, he, as the editor-in-chief, can only clean up this mess himself.

At the same time, the other side.

Horikoshi Hanpei looked at the criticism of him on the Internet and in some magazines, and fired, and his aggrieved face turned red.

But soon, as if he had thought of something, he laughed again.

The Publication Ethics Committee just stopped his comic series this week and the release of a single book this week.

It's a big deal to revise the content of the comic next week and continue serialization.

The same is true for single books.

Horikoshi Hanpei didn't believe that Shiniwazuki Publishing House would let him go as a pillar author.

Probably said Cao Cao, Cao Cao's psychology of arrival.

As soon as he thought of the New Iwatsuki Publishing House, he immediately got a phone call from there.

"Is it to inform me of the resumption of serialization next week?"

Horikoshi muttered with a smile and then reached out to take the phone.

And then...

"Terminate all collaborations? Are you kidding? Water editing? I..."Research and Search Team" can continue to draw! ”

"I'm sorry, but this is the result of a meeting between the editor-in-chief and the head of the editorial team. Horikoshi-sensei. ”

What was the result of the meeting?

Horikoshi Hanpei showed an incredulous expression, and after a long while, he spoke, "Have you really thought about it?" According to the contract, I can even take "Research and Search Team" to Toshima Publishing House to be serialized! ”

"Feel free to do so."

The editor over there still said in a calm tone: "I still have work to do next, sorry, Horikoshi-sensei, hang up first." ”

With a blind tone, the phone hung up.

At the same time, Horikoshi Hanpei took a deep breath.

Subsequently...

He punched the table hard.

Bastard!

Cut my work in half! Then don't blame me for being ruthless! I'm going to find another publisher with my work! When the time comes, you will beg me, and I will not return.

He screamed in his heart.

That is, in all sorts of situations.

Tsukasa Higashino's "Naoki Hanzawa" Volume 1 Single Book is finally on sale...
