Chapter 359: Difficulties

Shen Xin's proposal to Gao Hang is also quite hearty.

Many people are not willing to be assistants, so after a few years of work, they will leave their jobs and start drawing their own comics.

A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and this sentence applies equally to assistants.

This is a common phenomenon among cartoonists, and Shen Xin can't fix his assistant.

If there are one or two people who can be professional assistants like Gao Hang, the work behind them should be much easier.

When Wang Wenhong came back from the editorial department, Shen Xin told Wang Wenhong his thoughts.

"Career helper? I do know a few, and Yan Fei should know it too. Wang Wenhong explained.

"It's still mainly graduates, right? Coming to me, it's basically full-time, so I don't want those half-hearted assistants. ”

"If you really want to fix people, simply, recruit assistants, including Gao Hang, directly, draw up a contract, and then hand over insurance or something to them." Wang Wenhong reminded.

"You think I don't want to?" Shen Xin leaned back in the chair with a helpless expression, "However, if you do this, they are equivalent to employees." I have to go through a lot of formalities, and I also have to have an accountant...... No one helped me with this. originally wanted Sister Yan to help take care of it, but she was refused. ”

Shen Xin also wants to have his own studio, so that he will be much freer, and he doesn't have to worry about finding an assistant, and at the same time, like Gao Hang, their future treatment will also be guaranteed. It's just that someone will have to take care of the day-to-day business.

There is no such person around Shen Xin.

"Don't think about it, Mr. Shang has already made a request to Sister Yan, but he hasn't replied." Wang Wenhong explained.

"Why not?" Shen Xin was puzzled.

"I guess she thinks ComicFuture doesn't have too good potential for comics right now, right?" Wang Wenhong rubbed his chin and speculated.

"Hmm...... You'd better hurry up and find an assistant, right? ”

Shen Xin picked up the pen and did not forget to tell Wang Wenhong again before starting to paint.

"Got it, mostly young people, right?" Wang Wenhong repeated, opened the notebook, and fell into deep thought.

This time, it's going to take a lot of work.

……

"Comic Journal" is published, and "Killer Diary" is over.

The little book came out, and "Diary of a Killer" won the second place in the small book, which can be regarded as having a good ending.

After getting the little book, Shang Haozhi also sighed, and the pressure on his shoulders became heavier.

When he went out to eat at noon, Shang Haozhi met Bao Jiyi in the elevator.

When Shang Haozhi came in, Bao Jiyi was taking off his glasses, rubbing his eyelids, and when he put on his glasses again, he was startled when he saw that there was suddenly more Shang Haozhi in the elevator.

"When did you come in?"

"What do you say? Of course, when I stopped the elevator just now, I couldn't just show up out of thin air, right? Shang Haozhi said helplessly, "Dong Bao, you don't seem to be in a good mood?" ”

After saying this, Shang Haozhi couldn't help but smile.

Bao Jiyi's situation is slightly better than him, but it is only slightly better, after all, the weight of "ComicFuture" in the entire group is still quite heavy.

"You're still in the mood to laugh, the sales of ComicFuture have dropped to 5.68 million, if I hadn't carried it for you, would you think your position would still be so stable?"

"Three months...... Just give me another three months. After three months, the magazine's sales are sure to go up. Shang Haozhi assured.

"Three months? Why? Bao Jiyi didn't quite understand.

"In three months, there should be a pillar comic book." Shang Haozhi thought of Shen Xin, and his mood was a lot lighter.

Unconsciously, Shen Xin has become his trusted signature cartoonist.

"What comics?"

Shang Haozhi rarely has such confidence in a comic that has not yet been serialized.

Can we really stop ComicFuture's decline?

Bao Jiyi muttered in his heart, but he didn't know that Shang Haozhi was just cheering himself up, and the effect was somewhat similar to self-hypnosis.

"I don't know." Shang Haozhi is also not sure.

“……”

Bao Jiyi looked at Shang Haozhi coldly, "Old Shang, you have learned badly." ”

The elevator door opened, and Shang Haozhi was the first to get out of the elevator, "Dong Bao, I invite you to eat a hamburger, how about it, haven't you eaten this kind of civilian food?" ”

"Hey, don't look down on people, I just ate a hot dog some time ago." Bao Jiyi sneered, "Okay, you're in for a treat." ”

Two people went into a fast-food restaurant near the magazine, each with a glass of iced Coke and a hamburger.

"Now, I'm really waiting for Mr. Shen's work." Shang Haozhi said.

Shen ...... Teacher Shen Zheng? ”

"Who else but him?"

"Didn't he just finish?" Bao Jiyi was surprised, "Half a year later, you can open a new book?" Will there be a problem with the quality? ”

"Dong Bao, you don't know much about Teacher Shen. He serialized "Y's" in "Neorld". After "Y's" stopped changing, he spent another half a year serializing "Chess Soul" in our magazine. What is the current result of "Chess Soul", I don't need to say, right? Now it can still sell hundreds of thousands of copies a month. What about the new work.,I looked at the setting.,It's very interesting.。 I believe that it will be a pillar manga again. ”

Shang Haozhi took a bite of the burger and took another sip of Coke.

"Hearing you say that, I also have expectations for Teacher Shen." Bao Jiyi took a breath.

If Shen Xin can really draw another comic of the same level as "Chess Soul", the decline of "ComicFuture" should be stopped.

"Don't talk about it yet...... Mr. Shang, how is the application I submitted before? Shang Haozhi stared at Bao Jiyi.

"Your application...... Oh, you mean, you want to resurrect the classic comics of the past, right? Bao Jiyi thought for a while, and then remembered.

Shang Haozhi nodded.

Last time, Wang Wenhong said that Shen Xin wanted to read the best-selling comics of "ComicFuture", but many of them were out of print in the market, and only some were left in the warehouse.

For ComicFuture, these comics are also the wealth of the magazine, and Shang Haozhi can't watch these once smash hits disappear, so he submits a resurrection application to it.

"How so? All I can say is that I'm very supportive of you. Bao Jiyi sighed, "However, this is not my magazine. ”

Bao Jiyi understands Shang Haozhi's mind very well, and when the document submitted by Shang Haozhi was put to the meeting for discussion, it was stuck, and some people felt that it was really unwise to spend a large amount of money on comics from a dozen or even decades ago.

Shang Haozhi angrily put the cup on the table, "Dong Bao, if I mean to reprint those comics, and the management disagrees, forget it, after all, the cost of reprinting is too great." I just want the site to include those comics, why not? It doesn't cost much, does it? Moreover, the pay-per-call fee is an additional income for us and for cartoonists, and this application should be a win-win situation...... No, even a win-win. ”

"Our contract with the cartoonist does not include the webcomic. If you want to make an online version, you will definitely have to sign another contract with the author. Moreover, what the profit model is, you did not propose. The focus of the magazine is still on paper books. If you really want the management to agree, you should really think about the proposal you submitted. Bao Jiyi explained.
