Chapter 182: Soaring Income

After Koji Yoshida watched the whole "Your Name", he instinctively wanted to put forward some opinions on the work, but when the words came to his lips, he found that he couldn't give any opinions!

No way, the completion of this work is too high, and the details are polished to perfection, so he can't find anything that needs to be modified.

Moreover, this is also a work that creates the theme of "body change", and it can be called a "pioneering work"!

The only thing that made Koji Yoshida feel tricky was that after watching the whole "Your Name", he just felt that its style didn't match "Shonen Jump" magazine very well.

But he is unwilling to give up such an excellent work, and such a genius cartoonist.

The works on "Shonen Jump" are hot-blooded, and even if there are love-oriented works on it, they are also the kind of male-oriented harem and funny youth comedy comics, similar to "Pseudo-Love" and "Strawberry 100%".

And "Your Name" is compared with these works, it is simply a complete explosion of those love comics that are serialized today.

This is probably like sending a high-quality, literary and artistic physical book to Xiaobai Shuangwen's popular network site, which is very likely to cause "pearl dust".

Of course, Koji Yoshida doesn't want such a very good manga to be buried, and he even thinks that such a manga can be directly animated into a movie, because he just watched the process of the manga, and it looks like watching an animated movie.

When he was struggling, he suddenly remembered the editor-in-chief of the magazine, Nao Sasaki, who had always held his opinion - manga, the most important thing is fun, and "Shonen Jump" will never refuse interesting comics!

So the question arises, is "Your Name" an interesting comic?

The answer is yes.

In particular, the male and female body swap part in the front of this work can be said to be full of creativity and fun.

Whether it is the male protagonist operating the female protagonist's body, or the female protagonist operating the male protagonist's body, they all make everything better for each other, which is simply an alternative "male and female complementary".

And "Your Name" is not only "interesting", the more its plot progresses to the later stage, the more it can mobilize the reader's emotions, and the male protagonist does his best to save the female protagonist from beginning to end, which is not very in line with the purpose of "hard work" in "friendship, hard work, and victory" in "Youth Jump"?

The behavior of the male protagonist also looks very hot-blooded!

The happy ending of the reunion of the male and female protagonists in the end is undoubtedly in line with the purpose of "victory"!

Koji Yoshida suddenly felt that he was too witty, and he had completely convinced himself in his heart that he must not let go of this work and this genius manga artist!

"This work,It has fully met the signing requirements of our magazine,In addition, your creative level is enough to be serialized in the main issue of our magazine.,If you draw the idea of a long-form serialization,I can help you put it forward at the serialization meeting!" Koji Yoshida said with great sincerity.

Enma Sakura nodded with satisfaction, she didn't expect it to go so smoothly herself, it seems that the lethality of "Your Name" is indeed too strong.

Koji Yoshida added: "In fact, ordinary manga authors, in order to get the qualification for serialization in the main issue of our magazine, first have to get some newcomer awards, such as monthly awards, Tezuka awards, Golden Future Cup, etc., and they have to prove themselves in the "Next" supplement to accumulate popularity, otherwise they will be serialized in the main magazine, and if the popularity of several consecutive issues of the reader survey is not good, then the serialization will be ......cut in half."

Of course, Enma Sakura understood, and Koji Yoshida used these words to prove to her how much he valued her talent and how sincere "Shonen Jump" was.

Although Yan Demon Sakura has created a lonely, conceited, and willful character for herself, she feels that she has to repay the editor who appreciates her like this.

So, she asked, "Which is the most important part of the newcomer award?" ”

Koji Yoshida replied: "Of course, it's the Tezuka Award, which can be said to be the most important newcomer award in the entire manga industry, and the Tezuka Award is divided into three levels: selection, access selection, and masterpiece, and being selected for this level, it has been a bye for many years." ”

Koji Yoshida then explained in detail the rewards and submission requirements for Tezuka Reward.

Bonus and prize (selected): Tezuka Cup of the main prize + certificate of merit + 1,000,000 yen of the secondary prize + commemorative shield.

(Admission Selection): Certificate of Merit + Vice-prize 500,000 yen + Commemorative Shield.

(Honorable work): Certificate of Merit + 200,000 yen for the second prize + commemorative shield.

AS FOR THE SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS OF THE TEZUKA AWARD, THE NUMBER OF ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPTS IS 31P, THE ORIGINAL PAPER IS 330~365MM VERTICAL, 230~260MM HORIZONTAL, AND THE STANDARD FRAME IS 270MM VERTICAL AND 180MM HORIZONTAL.

This means that nearly 200P of "Your Name" does not meet the submission requirements.

When Enma Sakura heard the rich reward of this Tezuka reward, she couldn't help but feel moved in her heart, as long as she drew a 31P ultra-short comic, she could get 1 million yen, which was really fragrant!

But I heard Koji Yoshida say: "Actually, I think it's very suitable for you to impact the selection of the Tezuka Award, because this newcomer award values the artistry of the manga, but often those creators who get the Tezuka Award will not be so smooth in the future, this is the curse of the so-called Tezuka Award......"

Enma Sakura was conceited: "Needless to say, I participated in this Tezuka reward, and it's just a 31P comic, and I'll be able to draw it soon." ”

Of course Koji Yoshida is very satisfied after listening to it, if the other party can get the award of the Tezuka Prize, and then there is the work "Your Name" by his side, then as long as the other party's long-form serialization is good enough, it will definitely be "included" at the serialization meeting!

"So, do you need to discuss your next creation with me, the editor-in-charge, maybe I can give you a lot of useful suggestions......" Koji Yoshida recommended himself.

As a result, the arrogant Enma Sakura unceremoniously refused, and she said, "You just need to be responsible for helping me deliver the manuscript." ”

Koji Yoshida said that I won't become an errand runner?

But running errands for such a genius cartoonist is clearly the basic operation of the responsible editor!

Doesn't Yujiro also run errands for his new wife Eiji, this is actually the daily routine between the Toei cartoonist and the editor in charge, of course, this is based on the fact that the manga artist's work is really popular.

Unknown cartoonists don't want to eat peaches, but want to please the editor in various ways.

Next, Yan Moying successfully signed a contract with the work "Your Name", and the price of her original manuscript directly reached the "10,000 yen 1P" capped by newcomers, that is to say, this "Your Name" directly brought her nearly 2 million yen in income!

This is only the "original manuscript", excluding the royalty share of future single editions, as well as the income from copyright development.

And 2 million yen, so much money, is equivalent to more than ten months of working in the maid café, and she has no need to work anymore......

It's really fun to draw comics!
