Shen Xin casually asked the magazine for an issue of the headpiece color page, which attracted the attention of cartoonists in Huaxia and District 11, which he did not expect.

However, Shen Xin's focus is not on these people, but on "Slamdunk" itself.

These plots in the early stage are actually very difficult.

Ikebana is a basketball novice, and it takes a process to "go from beginner to master", and basketball is a competitive sport that needs to be compared with others.

Progress takes time, and "Slamdunk" can't just remove this plot directly, so it can only focus on the scene of Hanamichi practicing layups.

In fact, in the creation of the Internet, these pictures will also be used, especially in fantasy, when the protagonist is training hard, the author will often focus on describing one skill, and other aspects will be brushed aside, in order to speed up the pace.

Shen Xin knows this, so he doesn't particularly value the results of "Slamdunk" during this period, and surprisingly, on "ICfuture", "Slamdunk" has always been very stable, often ranking first, as for "Young Leap", although the ranking of the small book is not the top two, but the ranking is much better than his expectations, and there are even two issues ranked above "The Strongest Pitcher".

Wang Wenhong deliberately went to "icfuture", asked Yu Chen for a postcard, and found the reason.

At the beginning of the serialization of "Slamdunk", Liu Chuanfeng's appearance made many people very curious, with the development of the plot, Liu Chuanfeng's cold image has been recognized by some female readers, just like Zuo Wei in "Chess Soul", the moon in "DN", and Liu Chuanfeng is more real than Zuo Wei and Yue, most girls have the experience of standing on the side of the basketball court and cheering for the team or school team.

Because of this, Liu Chuanfeng's popularity has always been high in "Slamdunk".

At the same time, Mu Qingzi personally taught ikebana layups on the basketball court, which also made many male readers feel very gratified.

From the current point of view, Mu Qingzi is the heroine of "Slamdunk", and after teaching Hanamichi layup in person, the relationship between the two has taken a step further.

In hot-blooded comics, if the male protagonist has a favorite female character, most readers still hope that the two can come together.

It is precisely because of these two reasons that "Slamdunk" not only maintains its due ranking, but its popularity among readers has also risen a lot compared to the beginning of the serialization.

Before you know it, it's mid-October.

The foreshadowing plot in the early stage of "Slamdunk" is about to come to an end, and the first breaking point is about to come out.

For this reason, Shen Xin also made a lot of efforts.

Wang Wenhong turned off the computer, stretched his muscles, and then glanced at the assistant's work area, and noticed that the assistants were halfway gone.

Shen Xin doesn't manage much of his assistant, he only has one requirement, he must complete the work with quality and quantity.

At first, Wang Wenhong felt that Shen Xin's management would make the assistants too loose, and if they didn't put pressure on the assistants, they wouldn't work hard.

However, it turned out that although everyone had a higher degree of freedom, they were very active in their work, and the quality of their drawings did not deteriorate.

Wang Wenhong observed for a period of time and understood the reason.

The 7 assistants are divided into two groups, and each person's workload is actually quantitative, and if one person can't complete the work, it will inevitably delay the pace of others.

Once in a while, the other assistant may be able to endure it, but after too many times, there will definitely be complaints, and in this case, the assistant will not be embarrassed to delay for too long.

Another point is pressure.

"DN" is facing other color comics on the Internet, Liu Ruoxing and others definitely don't want to weaken the reputation of "DN", especially, "DN" has created a record of one million copies in a single week, if it is surpassed by other color comics, they can't afford to lose this person.

Not to mention "Slamdunk", although Shen Xin didn't pick it out, he doesn't care about the small book of "icfuture" now, and only asks about the ranking of the small book in "Young Leap" every time.

The sales of the two magazines seem to be not much different, only hundreds of thousands of copies, but the competitive pressure of "Shonen Leap" is more than twice as great as that of "ICFUTURE", especially when it has to face monsters like "The Gate of Eternal Life".

Now, Shen Xin almost said something like "pull down the Gate of Eternal Life" in front of them.

Under this pressure, they did not dare to easily deal with things on the grounds that they "couldn't do it".

What's more, the conditions given by Shen Xin are excellent, once he is fired, there will be no such conditions in China.

After Wang Wenhong came out of the office, he noticed that Shen Xin and Xi Muhan had also come out of their studio.

"Why is it so early today?" Wang Wenhong was a little surprised when he saw Shen Xin holding the pad and Xi Muhan locked the door.

"It's not early at 22 o'clock. Now I have to save some stamina and hit the little book of "Shonen Leap" in January next year. Shen Xin said with a smile.

"How hopeful?"

"Half and half." Shen Xin shook his head, "I can only say that there is a chance, but I am not sure." After all, the monsters on "Shonen Leap" are not only "The Gate of Eternal Life". If it were to be known that "Slamdunk" had plans to hit the first place, there would be no small resistance. ”

Wang Wenhong smiled bitterly in his heart.

I'm afraid that the group of authors in District 11 will not be difficult to guess your intentions.

However, the most difficult thing to face is "The Gate of Eternal Life"...... How so? If Mr. Uematsu had paid a little more attention, "Slamdunk" would not have been able to win "The Gate of Eternal Life" this time. Shen Xin sighed.

The training match between Xiangbei and Lingnan is just a small test for Shen Xin, even if "Slamdunk" is a "masterpiece", but "Land of the Gods" is not in this plot, otherwise the competition of "Youth Leap" will be too disappointing.

If such a plot can get the first place, the sense of achievement is too low.

This time, Shen Xin just told the cartoonists of "Shonen Leap" that "Slamdunk" is here and asked them to get ready.

Wang Wenhong pursed his mouth, "It's good that you are prepared like this." I'm afraid that your expectations are too high, in case you fold, you won't be ranked first, or even the top two, and your confidence will plummet, which will affect the subsequent plot arrangement. ”

"Not really. I'm not a newbie. ”

"But, Mr. Shen, since your debut, you have been too smooth." Wang Wenhong reminded.

"That's right." Shen Xin nodded.

Except for "Y's", the other three manga are really smooth sailing. As for "Y's", if it hadn't been an accident, it might have been going well, after all, it had already won the "Best Newcomer Award" at that time.

"Still, I'm measured. Especially......" Shen Xin raised the pad in his hand, "I want to take a look at the comics on "Shonen Leap", speculate on their plot arrangement, and make an estimate of the quality of these works in January. ”

Wang Wenhong saw the pad and nodded silently.

"Shonen Leap" cooperated with "icfuture" to license the electronic rights of some works to "icfuture", and these works were eventually serialized in light reading, among them, there are many masterpieces like "The Gate of Eternal Life".
