"In recent years, the sales of "Shonen Leap" have declined to a certain extent compared with their peak, but this decline is a problem faced by the entire industry, not a single company, but the sales of "Eternal Gate" are indeed very high, and in District 11, both total sales and average volume sales are ranked first.

"SLAM DUNK HAS ALSO SOLD 13 VOLUMES, WITH A TOTAL OF 10 MILLION COPIES AND AN AVERAGE OF 960,000 COPIES. Driven by the two comics, the sales of "Shonen Leap" have finally increased in reverse. The editor-in-chief of Murakami worked hard during this period. ”

Murakami looked at the new president and bowed slightly, "This is what I should do." ”

"For this reason, Murakami's position as editor-in-chief will be changed from before...... "The president glanced down at the manuscript and said the personnel change.

"Murakami, next you will be the leader of the first group, managing all the weekly magazines under the company......"

When Murakami heard about this appointment, he had mixed feelings in his heart.

Sure enough, as he had guessed at the beginning, the editor-in-chief of "Shonen Leap" was no longer him.

After the meeting, many people congratulated him, and then his goal was to be the vice president, or even the president, rather than an ordinary editor.

Murakami was smiling, but he was a little empty and uncomfortable inside.

He had a change of position, and he needed to adapt – to the new environment, but also to adjust his heart.

Toru Murakami brought the new editor-in-chief to the editorial office of "Shonen Leap", and the time was already six o'clock in the evening, several team leaders were still working, and the editors were basically present.

When Kotani Senmei saw Murakami coming back, he quickly stood up, and before he could speak, he saw Murakami waving his hand and signaling him to sit down first.

"Let's put down what we're doing for the time being, and I'll say one thing."

The others looked up.

"Due to a job transfer, I am no longer the editor-in-chief of Shonen Leap from now on. The new editor-in-chief is Mr. Tachibana. Murakami pointed to the middle-aged man next to him and said, "Of course, in the past two days, I and the editor-in-chief of Tachibana will have a handover of work, and if there is anything, everyone will try to hand it over to the editor-in-chief of Tachibana." ”

The handover is a cumbersome process, especially since "Junior Leap" is the company's fist magazine, so you can't be careless.

This process takes about a week.

Tachibana bowed slightly to everyone, and after getting up, he straightened his tie again.

When the others heard this, their expressions were a little strange, and their eyes inadvertently swept over the deputy editor-in-chief, Ayumi Nishida.

He has been the deputy editor-in-chief of "Young Leap" for more than ten years, but he didn't expect that after Murakami's departure, the position of editor-in-chief was left to outsiders.

Shin Tachibana is the editor-in-chief of Young Leap, a brother publication of Shonen Leap. The gap between these two magazines is not ordinarily big - "Shonen Leap" sells a fraction of the sales of "YL".

Many people will be unconvinced that such a person is the editor-in-chief of "Young Leap", especially Ayumi Nishida, who has served as the deputy editor-in-chief for more than ten years.

Compared with Nishida Ayumi, Tachibana Sentry's only advantage may be his age.

No matter what Nishida Ayumi says, he is also over fifty years old, and his energy is far less than that of Tachibana Gentry in his thirties.

"The other editors make arrangements for their work according to their own situation. If you're done with your work, why don't you leave work first? The team leaders came over first to report back the work briefly, so that the editor-in-chief of Tachibana could have a general understanding of the work of the magazine. Murakami went to his workbench, grabbed a notepad, and entered the conference room separated by a glass wall with Tachibana Shin.

The other team leaders looked at each other and saw the helplessness on each other's faces.

Especially China Kotani and Ping Miyamoto, the two of them have been fighting for so long, and they still have no chance to take another step.

The three team leaders entered the conference room and each found a seat to sit down.

The other two team leaders briefly described the work, and when it was China Kotani's turn, China Kotani coughed lightly.

"Editor-in-Chief Tachibana, I have two main books in my hands, one is "SLAM DUNK" and the other is "Young Exorcist". After a year of adjustment, "Young Exorcist" has basically moved towards normality, and the ranking of small books in the last few issues is among the top five. Not to mention "SLAM DUNK", which has sold phenomenally by word of mouth, and is now another pillar of "Shonen Leap" comics. ”

"SLAM DUNK ......" Tachibana wrote the name of the manga on the paper, "I remember that this manga was found by the head of the Murakami team on a deliberate trip to Huaxia, right?" ”

"That's right, we have cooperated with Mr. Shen before, and the work has been tested by readers in District 11, and later, I saw him draw a short story on the Internet, I thought the quality was good, so I sighed with Mr. Shen and won the copyright of "SLAM DUNK" in District 11." Murakami gave a brief explanation.

"Team leader Murakami has a really good vision, and it took two years for "SLAM DUNK" to become the pillar of "Shonen Leap." Tachibana said with a smile.

"Luckily, more than one magazine was competing with us at that time, but fortunately, Mr. Shen chose us." Murakami rubbed his nose and was a little proud.

THE CURRENT RESULTS OF "SLAM DUNK" HAVE DEFINITELY EXCEEDED HIS EXPECTATIONS.

"IT'S A PITY THAT WE ONLY GOT THE AREA 11 RIGHTS TO SLAM DUNK." Tachibana sighed.

“……”

Murakami didn't know how to answer, so he pretended not to hear.

"TWO EDITORS-IN-CHIEF, THERE'S ONE MORE PIECE OF NEWS ABOUT SLAM DUNK...... It was given to me by Wang Wenhong. Kotani Chimei hesitated slightly, he really didn't want to mention this matter on this occasion. But thinking that he couldn't be the master, he was a little depressed in his heart, so he spoke up again.

"What's the matter?"

"I just received an email from Wang Wenhong, who said that the animation of "SLAM DUNK" can be launched. I deliberately asked him if he needed to include some original plots in the animation, and the reply he got was 'not needed for the time being'. ”

"What!?"

Hearing China Kotani's words, Murakami almost screamed.

AMONG THE TOP THREE COMICS, "ETERNAL GATE" AND "STRONGEST PITCHER" BOTH HAVE ANIMATIONS, AND THE ONLY ONE THAT DOES NOT HAVE ANIMATION IS "SLAM DUNK".

Toru Murakami has been waiting for Shen Xin to tell him when "SLAM DUNK" will be able to be animated, and as a result, as soon as he was transferred, Shen Xin submitted an application to make animation, which made him a little embarrassed.

The tree is in the middle of itself, but it seems to be ...... The fruit was plucked by others.

"THE ANIMATION FOR SLAM DUNK IS ONLY NOW IN PRODUCTION...... It's a bit long, isn't it? Tachibana asked.

"That's because the plot of "SLAM DUNK" is very tight, and I can't make it for half a year. Moreover, Shonen Leap, as a hallmark of the District 11 comics, requires more than one feature-length comic. Murakami explained.

"That'...... SO, IS "SLAM DUNK" AN ANNUAL OR ......"

"It's a long one, and it's probably all in one go." Murakami had to explain again.

Tachibana touched his chin, bowed slightly, and did not speak again.
