Shinjuku, one of Tokyo's 23 wards, is a bustling city that never sleeps. In Kawada Town, there is a building that stands out.

Whisper Library, Inc. Building.

As one of the emerging libraries in recent years, it is also the existence of the top five online and offline grossing in the whole island country, and its strength is very strong.

Not long ago, Whisper Library announced its new building plan, which is enough to see the strength of the building.

Three years later, there will be a luxury building with a sense of science fiction in Odaiba, Minato Ward.

Such a powerful family naturally has its own uniqueness.

Excellent, excellent quality, continuous essay contests, and the continuous input of capital forces behind it, now the income of Whisper Library is not only a single book, but also a variety of channels are blooming everywhere.

But the root cause of it still belongs to the light editorial department.

Edit Part 1!

The first is the department that Whisper Library is most proud of, and it is also the most largest.

The control of the current style, especially in the world's leading lightly accomplished country, the task of the editorial department is very heavy.

If you listen to the name, you can understand that the people in the editorial department are editors, but in fact, editors alone are divided into several types, such as review editors, responsible editors, contract editors, and so on.

There is a lot of talent here, there are a lot of people, and they are divided into five groups.

But on this day, in the office of the fifth group, someone slapped the table...

"Review rejection!"

"Hey!"

"Group 5! Listen to me! How can such a thing be shown to the people! Do you understand? ”

"Hey!"

"If there is no excellent quality, don't recommend it!"

"Hey!"

The one who slapped the table was named Sanada Jiya.

As her name suggests, she is a middle-aged man, who is not yet fifty years old, and although he is not an author, he has not much hair as the editor-in-chief of the fifth group.

At this moment, wearing an iron-gray suit, with a set of black suit pants, a pair of small metal-framed glasses on his face, and a cigarette in his mouth, he frowned, looking at the useless proposals on his desk.

His position is also very high, the editor-in-chief of the fifth group of the light editorial department, this position can be said to be a middle-level leader, but thinking about the special status of the editorial department, it can be said to be a middle-level leader.

Since Inoue Ichiro was promoted to the third group of deputy editors due to the light of Shingo Harano, the fifth group seems to have lost all their luck, and the quality of the manuscripts here is generally not very high.

I don't know if it's the result of other comparisons or other reasons, but there are really not many that can get into his eyes.

Obviously, Sanada's editor-in-chief had just finished the meeting and was angry.

An employee next to him was there bowing and apologetic, taking a bite of 'Hi! It is even more sincere.

But his hairstyle is a little bad, the hair in the middle has been exhausted, and now he bows so much that the hair on the back of his head covers the central depression, and when he looks up again, the hair can still be shaken, and the black-rimmed glasses on his face may fall off at any time.

Makes people laugh.

The other editors here are already covering their mouths.

"Laugh! Just know how to laugh! If there are no good quality manuscripts to recommend, you will all fuck me off! ”

"Hey!"

Before leaving, he threw down such a powerful sentence, which made everyone in the fifth group silent, and the employee couldn't bow for a long time, and his face was as suffocated as pig liver.

Sanada Futsuya ignored them, and was about to leave the fifth group, but as soon as he walked out of the door, a man suddenly appeared in front of him.

He was stunned for a moment, looked at the other party with some hesitation, looked at it carefully, and said, "Yuan Ye San? ”

"It's me, Sanada-san."

The person who came was Shingo Harano, who came to report on the first day of the company, and he said hello.

"How could Harano-san be here, did he come to find Inoue, he was on the fourth floor." Koji Sanada thought that Shingo Harano was here to find Ichiro Inoino, but he couldn't find the way, so he kindly reminded him.

……

The rooftop of the building, which is a great place to smoke.

Although Sanada Futsuya didn't have much hair, there were still more cigarettes in the cigarette case, so he handed one to Shingo Harano.

"Sanada-san, I don't smoke."

"How can a man not smoke, let's have one."

"Hehe, I know smoking can relieve stress, but I really don't have any pressure at the moment, so you should keep it."

Sanada Futsuya smiled and put the cigarette back, but then said a strange thank you.

"Thank you."

Why would Sanada Futsuya be grateful?

Surely it won't be because of the smoke.

Shingo Harano scratched his head and smiled, "Sanada-san seems to have something to worry about. ”

He's acting strangely, too.

But Sanada Jiya smiled, "Actually, it's just because of work." ”

Shingo Harano raised an eyebrow and made an inquiring expression.

"To be honest, the success of Yuan Yejun's transformation of the tradition is really amazing, because the pressure of light competition is too great now." Sanada Futsuya sighed, while still feeling a little about the success of Shingo Harano.

"Oh? Is the light form so severe now, can Sanada-san tell me more about it? He was a little curious, although he hadn't reported it yet, but his future work must be a headache for Sanada Erya, and it is necessary to understand it in advance now, at least he won't be blind.

Sanada Futsuya glanced at him, thinking that there was no important work today, and he muttered for a while, as if he was talking about it as if he was talking to an old friend, and Shingo Harano also nodded his head on the side.

Now the whole pace of life is starting to get faster.

In the overall recession of the publishing industry, the publisher adjusted the light operation strategy to further accelerate the product transformation, but ORICON could not grasp the changes in the market in time due to technical reasons, so the situation we see from the ORICON report today has been formed.

The migration of readers is a big problem, and the competition object of light benchmarking is never general, but manga, anime, and even games.

It is precisely because there is a big difference between light and traditional target groups and sales places that the two will not form direct competition. On the contrary, if the sales places coincide, the target groups overlap, and the sales prices are similar, light and comics will form a very direct competitive relationship.

In terms of writing, it is mainly composed of a large number of lines, and the description and portrayal of the characters are completed by illustrations, which is more like a "textual comic" than a "large number of illustrations", which is also to a large extent to cater to the reading habits of comic book readers.

This determines that once the comic and animation market is eroded by other media, then Light Nature will not be immune.
