"Can you slow it down a bit?" Yu Chen said tangledly.

"I'm sorry." Shen Xin lowered his head slightly.

Yu Chen sighed and hesitated again before he spoke: "That...... TEACHER, WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS AFTER SLAM DUNK IS OVER? ”

"Probably two years off, right? "SLAM DUNK" has been serialized for five or six years, and I rarely take a break from publication, and I am very tired. Shen Xin said.

Yu Chen's mouth opened slightly, and he sighed helplessly, "Yes, the teacher has been serialized for so long...... I should take a break. ”

"However, at that time, Xiaohan and I may create a comic, which will be serialized in the form of a monthly magazine, as for which platform, we haven't considered it yet." Shen Xin said his next plan.

Since he has this plan, Shen Xin doesn't plan to hide it.

"Be sure to consider Comic Future." Yu Chen said seriously.

"Mr. Yu, I said that it was a monthly magazine...... Oh, is it Monthly Comic Future? No, you're not responsible for the monthly magazine. Wang Wenhong interjected.

"Shut up, who says you can't serialize? It's really not good, the 40-page manuscript is split into two sentences, and it is serialized once every half a month. Yu Chen knocked on the table and glared at Wang Wenhong.

Can you speak, kid? Although you don't work in the editorial office now, how can you say that this is also your old employer?

Wang Wenhong rolled his eyes.

The cartoons of the monthly update were serialized in the weekly magazine, and only Yu Chen could think of this kind of thing.

"......" Shen Xin coughed lightly, "Mr. Yu, we are discussing "No Demons in the World" and the next comics, and when "SLAM DUNK" is almost over, we will talk about it, okay?" ”

Yu Chen nodded, and his energy was focused on "No Demons in the World" again.

"SLAM DUNK" will end in the second half of the year, and "Comic Future" will inevitably dive at that time.

Not a single magazine, not even Shonen Leap, the top manga magazine in District 11, couldn't afford to end SLAM DUNK.

If "No Demons in the World" is cut in half again, the sales of "Comic Future" are estimated to collapse.

As for what he thought just now, Shen Xin was entrusted by Fan Yinmo, and it was unlikely that he would think about it carefully.

At present, Shen Xin is the only one in China, and Fan Yinmo may not be qualified to negotiate conditions with Shen Xin, not to mention that Shen Xin is indeed thinking about "Comic Future".

Although Shen Xin said just now that "SLAM DUNK" would end, Yu Chen had the feeling that Shen Xin was threatening him, but then, Yu Chen understood that this feeling was just an illusion.

HOW WELL DOES SLAM DUNK SELL AS A SINGLE BOOK? For other cartoonists, it is an astronomical amount, and the benefits in it are even more unimaginable to ordinary cartoonists.

GET SLAM DUNK TO END EARLY? I'm afraid that Fan Yinmo can't afford this price.

Thinking about this, Yu Chen's mentality also stabilized.

"I can understand Mr. Shen's words. But we still can't tolerate double contracts, and we also posted on Weibo, if we break our promise, it will be a slap in the face...... Even if I agree, Mr. Bao and Mr. Shang will not agree. Yu Chen was embarrassed.

"I know, on the way here, I kept thinking about it. In fact, there is nothing wrong with the manga "No Demons in the World", the only difficulty is that it signed a double contract. As long as the contract with Fan Yinmo is destroyed, and you sign the contract again, everything will fall into place. It's a matter for both of you, nothing more than your own interests. As for your tweets...... There should also be a solution. Shen Xin said.

"What's the solution?" Yu Chen hurriedly asked.

"The situation right now is that the two of you are at a stalemate. For the sake of face, you will not retreat, otherwise, the brand of the magazine will be smashed, and Fan Yinmo is angry, and he will definitely not give in. At this time, someone needs to mediate, and both of you can put an end to the current awkward situation. Shen Xin expressed his opinion.

Yu Chen took a breath, the method that Shen Xin said was indeed very good, but who would mediate was another difficult problem.

"That'...... How about Mr. Shen acting as this mediator? Yu Chen asked tentatively.

Among domestic cartoonists, Shen Xin must be the only one, and there may be an interval before it will be the turn of others, and Shen Xin is the mediator, which is very suitable.

"Me? I can't. I'm just a cartoonist, how can I get involved in your business? Shen Xin shook his head, "Moreover, there is someone more suitable than me." ”

"Who?" Yu Chen was stunned, in his memory, except for Shen Xin, there was no more suitable person.

"Mr. Shiping." Shen Xin said softly.

When Yu Chen heard the name of "Shi Ping", he immediately reacted, "That's right! He really can. ”

It was fitting that the president of the Manga Artists Association should be the mediator.

It is also their duty to ensure the interests of cartoonists and to take into account the needs of magazines and mediate the relationship between the two sides of the conflict.

It's just that the current Manga Artists Association is not as good as before, especially after the webtoon came out, the Manga Artists Association was hung out for a long time, and the "Manga Festival" became less important due to the absence of "SLAM DUNK" and the appearance of the Golden Brush Award.

Letting them come out to mediate can also increase the exposure of the association, which can be described as a win-win-win.

"But there is still a question, how can the association intervene? If the association wanted to mediate, it would have done it a long time ago, and it would not have waited until now. Yu Chen was embarrassed.

The people of the Cartoonists Association also know that they are not as confident as before, especially in the face of "Comic Future". If you come in rashly, you are likely to have a hot face and a cold fart. shares, self-deprecation is not interesting.

Yu Chen wanted Shi Ping to intervene, but Shi Ping didn't know that Yu Chen wanted him to intervene, "Comic Future" couldn't pull his face to invite Shi Ping, and Fan Yinmo was no longer ready to mix in the circle, so it was even more impossible to go to him.

Therefore, someone is needed to lead Shi Ping to this matter, and this person must also have a certain prestige, otherwise, Shi Ping is likely to ignore it - he also has to consider the risk of intervening in this matter.

"In that case...... Shen Xin tapped the table a few times, and his eyes were aimed at Wang Wenhong, "Brother Wang, please take a trip, please ask the old man, and ask him to mediate this matter." Mr. Yu, do you think it's okay? ”

"Feasible." Yu Chen was overjoyed.

Shen Xin is willing to help, that's really the best.

Xi Muhan's eyes stared at Shen Xin, she didn't expect that this matter would be solved in this way.

If it is really negotiated, although Shen Xin did not make a direct profit, "Comic Future" and the Cartoonists Association will give Shen Xin a favor.

Let the magazine and the cartoonists association owe favors, this is not something that can be done with a high level of comics, and it can even be said that without this opportunity, even if it is Shen Xin, he will not be able to do it.

It's not a win-win-win, it's a win-win-win.

Now, it's up to us to see if this can happen.

Yu Chen's expression eased a lot after hearing that Shen Xin was willing to help.

If "SLAM DUNK" is over, there must be enough high-quality comics to barely ensure that the sales of "Comic Future" will not be too ugly, if "No Demons in the World" can come back, it will definitely be a good addition, of course, the comics that can really make up for the vacancy of "SLAM DUNK" depends on what kind of works Shen Xin can come up with.

"Alright, that's the end of this matter, let's move on to the next question." Shen Xin rubbed his throat and said so many words, his mouth was a little dry.

Seeing this, Wang Wenhong immediately got up and walked out of the conference room.

"What else?" Yu Chen was a little confused.

"It's more important. After Fan Yinmo announced the dissolution of the studio, some cartoonists lost their jobs and had disputes with other cartoonists because of different ideas. I'm wondering if some big platforms should improve the environment of the domestic comic circle. Of course, I'm not just talking about Comic Future, including Comic and even the Cartoonists Association, which should also come up with something, right? Shen Xin asked rhetorically.
