After the release of the 10th issue of "ComicFuture", Wang Wenhong and Shang Haozhi were both paying attention to the comments about "Chess Soul" on the Internet, but the focus of the two people was different.

Shang Haozhi is more concerned about what impact this words will have on the story after "Chess Soul" - although he has met Shen Xin before, and Shen Xin's words do make sense. But he still doesn't want "Chess Soul" to have too big problems in this regard.

Story Avalanche......

Even ComicFuture struggled to withstand the collapse of its signature comics.

In particular, this year's "Chess Soul" is still the main comic of the magazine.

The discussion about "Chess Soul" on the Internet, the comic and the animation are almost half each, and the quality of the animation is extremely high, attracting many new readers.

Long Yao and Orochi are satisfied with this cooperation, both in terms of TV station ratings and CD sales, they have achieved good results.

Although the animation has not yet been broadcast, the two animation companies are already discussing the production of the next season of animation with the magazine.

If there is a moth at this time, it is estimated that Bao Jiyi will have a headache, right?

Unlike Shang Haozhi, Wang Wenhong is more concerned about the development of the situation.

On the one hand, this sentence is related to the ranking of "Chess Soul" on "ComicFuture", and on the other hand, the prospect of "Chess Soul" can also be inferred from this sentence.

Therefore, I will also put more energy on the Internet and observe the reactions of readers.

I don't know if it's because "Hunting Abyss" is getting better, or "The Legend of the Dragon King" suddenly mentions the protagonist's father, which has attracted the attention of a large number of readers, in short, the popularity of "Chess Soul" is not as good as before.

Wang Wenhong saw the decline in the popularity of "Chess Soul", and he was relieved in his heart.

After lunch, Wang Wenhong's spirit was a little trance, so he lay down on his seat to rest.

When Jian Xiaomei saw Wang Wenhong, she walked lightly, knocked on the table twice, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

"What could I have asked for?" Wang Wenhong laughed dryly and sat up straight.

"This is said so directly, are you really not afraid that readers will throw away "Chess Soul"?"

"I'm afraid...... Jian Xiaomei, if Teacher Ye does the same, what will you do? ”

"He's still in heaven!?" Jian Xiaomei clasped her hands to her chest and snorted coldly, "It must be overhauled...... However, although Mr. Ye does not do things at the limit, he will still listen to the correct opinions. ”

"What if doing so would improve the quality of the entire comic?" Wang Wenhong asked rhetorically.

"Quality ......"

Jian Xiao's eyebrows opened slightly, and she looked at Wang Wenhong in surprise.

"That's right. If you can improve the quality of your work, will Mr. Ye still agree with your opinion? Wang Wenhong sighed, his brows still not relaxed, "Classic and best-selling works, which one should you choose?" ”

Jian Xiao's eyebrows opened slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he shook his head helplessly.

It's really hard to talk about this kind of thing.

The topic of "Sawei will disappear" was pointed out by readers on the second day of the magazine's release, but only a small number of readers were discussing.

For most readers, Zuo Wei's words in the last box—"The most important thing now is to quietly guard Xiaoguang and watch him grow"—is like a guarantee that he will not disappear.

Therefore, whether it is Manjia.com or a domestic platform, everyone has not had too many doubts about this comic.

However, readers in District 11 don't think so, and someone has written a relevant analysis post for this, which has been recognized by many readers of "Chess Soul".

"Sawei won't disappear, will he?"

"Probably not, why do you think so?"

"Sawei is already feeling uneasy."

"The word 'my name' also has such a compartment, and Zuo Wei doubts that he will disappear......"

The author seems to have brought it up intentionally or unintentionally...... It always feels like it's real. ”

"Don't—I don't want Sawei to disappear."

"I don't understand why the author did this? Obviously, the ratings of the anime and the sales of the disc are very good, and the sales of the single book are also very high. At this time, let Zuo Wei disappear...... Isn't the author dying? ”

"I don't know, anyway, if Zuo Wei disappears, I really won't watch "Chess Soul"!"

"It's uncomfortable, I want to cry."

……

Readers not only left comments on the website, but also clarified their thoughts on postcards or letterheads sent to Shonen Leap.

After reading most of the readers' letters, Murakami frowned, and after knocking on the table twice, he called Yokoi into his office and handed him the readers' letters.

"What do you think?" Murakami said.

"It's true." Yokoi's face was entangled, "Just now, ComicFuture gave me a reply. ”

Murakami rubbed his forehead, "It's a good thing that I'm not the author of "Shonen Leap", otherwise, I would be really in trouble." Did the editorial office over there do any measures? Didn't they stop or persuade Mr. Shen to change his mind? ”

"Persuaded, but ...... In the end, I agreed with Mr. Shen's statement that he wanted to create classics. Yokoi said seriously.

"Classic? If just dying can become a classic, then detective comics, aren't they all classics? Murakami said impatiently.

Yokoi frowned slightly, and did not agree with Murakami's words, but he did not directly refute Murakami, but explained from another aspect: "Editor-in-chief, I don't know what your attitude is towards "Chess Soul", I think that if Zuo Wei does not disappear, "Chess Soul" will also become a classic. But...... It's just a classic. Any cartoonist, once he has the opportunity to create a comic of the level of "Chess Soul", will definitely try to make it to the extreme, I think, this should also be the true thoughts of Mr. Shen's heart, right? ”

Murakami looked at Yokoi in surprise and didn't speak for a long time.

Yokoi also noticed that his words were a little too much, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I ...... just now I'm talking too much. ”

"Well, any popular comic is a fortune, whether it is a magazine, an animation manufacturer, or a game company, they have thrown a lot of money into comics." Murakami looked serious, "If Mr. Shen decides to do this, we must let Orochi know the cause and effect of the incident. If Zuo Wei disappears, it may lead to a collapse in the ratings of "Chess Soul" or DVD sales, and even the single book will not be spared. ”

Yokoi's mouth opened slightly, and sweat broke out on his forehead.

Suddenly, the outlook for Chess Soul in Area 11 turned very bad.

……

Recently, Bao Jiyi's mood has been quite good.

Although "Chess Soul" has won the first place for 9 consecutive weeks, it has also won the prize money without dispute.

To be honest, he was really surprised, after all, "Chess Soul" won the prize money in the hands of two royal comics, which shows that this year's Best Long-Form Comics Award is stable.

Sure...... No, it can only be "Chess Soul".

For excellent comics, you shouldn't be stingy with money, so Bao Jiyi happily took out this money.

At the same time, Long Yao and Orochi also submitted a proposal together to prepare for the second season of the manga.

The content of the two project books is exactly the same, and the next season of "Chess Soul" is the annual one.

It will be released at the beginning of next year and will continue until the end of next year.

For a Go comic, it's rare.

Looking at the two plans in front of him, the corners of Bao Jiyi's mouth curled slightly.

He was just about to ask the staff of the legal department to draft the contract when the phone rang suddenly.

Bao Jiyi picked up the phone, and the voice of the front desk lady came from the microphone.

"Hello Dong Bao, General Manager Long of Longyao Company wants to see you."

"Ah...... Ask him to come up. ”

Bao Jiyi's brows moved slightly, a little hesitant, unable to figure out why Long Tian came to him at this time.
