Just when Liang Yu helped Zhu Ying and Fang Qing prepare for the exam, and spent the rest of their time reading comics to recharge and sharpen their drawing foundations, Fantasy's editorial department ushered in a bombshell news.

"This ...... Is this true? After hearing the news from the mouth of Ye Chuan, the head of the editorial team, Guo Pinyuan also couldn't sit still.

Ye Chuan also nodded noncommittally.

"But that's unfair to other authors." Guo Pinyuan said anxiously that he knew very well how much repercussions would be if other authors heard the news, because even as an editor, he felt that it was too much nonsense.

――You plan to have two works serialized in a magazine at the same time, and the other author is a rookie who only debuted this year?

Ye Chuan's face also showed a complicated look, he has been a comic editor for nearly ten years, how could he not know this kind of thing, but the current editor-in-chief is a vigorous and resolute person, and it is also a fact that the sales of comic magazines have been unstable recently.

"The editor-in-chief wants Fantasy to have more new works full of vitality and fun." Ye Chuan said.

"But it's too strange and unkind.,The popularity voting system was only implemented a few years ago.,This kind of practice of putting cartoonists and works on the counter as commodities has long made those authors dissatisfied.,But now it's a matter of one person serializing two works.,It's too quick to achieve quick success."

"But that person is Gu Chengfeng." Ye Chuan's bland words made Guo Pinyuan suddenly feel speechless.

I remember that Ye Chuan once sighed to Guo Pinyuan, "The current middle school students are really amazing", but he didn't know the existence of Liang Yu at that time, and the one he referred to in his words was naturally Chen Nan, who Guo Pinyuan was optimistic about, and the rest was the protagonist of today's incident, this sophomore boy called Gu Chengfeng.

The events in which Gu Chengfeng and Chen Nan appeared in the eyes of the editors of the magazine are similar, and in general, Gu Chengfeng is a little earlier, but the two of them have completely different comic paths in Fatasy. Although both of them participated in the Golden Apple Cup in March with their excellent painting skills, the result was that Chen Nan was eliminated in the second round of the qualifiers because of the story, and did not even enter the semi-finals, while Gu Chengfeng's work was a triumphant song all the way, killing all the opponents in the same period, winning the crown of the Golden Apple Cup, and winning the opportunity to be serialized.

If that's all there is, then he's just a great newcomer, but mature cartoonists have to rely on long-form serialization to prove their strength, but such a newcomer has been in the top three for several months after starting serialization, and even has more than three times to reach the first place, which is unique in the history of Fantasy magazine, and it is no wonder that his work "Dragon Sword" is now called the savior of Fantasy.

"Putting these aside, if you open two serials at the same time, the author himself will be under a lot of pressure, after all, this is a weekly serial."

"Ah, this is no problem, Gu Chengfeng himself also said that he only submitted a serialized short story if he wanted to do it, and his painting workmanship, speed, and quality are impeccable, he is a genius that is rare in ten years."

"Genius...... said such words, but Guo Pinyuan thought of another person.

"Okay, this matter has been decided, don't continue to discuss it, let's think about how to tell those authors the news, after all, paper can't contain fire, hey, today there are 3 more works of old authors that have been chopped, I hope they don't make too much trouble."

Guo Pinyuan had cold sweat dripping on his forehead, there was one sentence he didn't say, what was decided at today's meeting might not be a good thing, but this may be a good opportunity for those two young middle school students.

At the moment, the home of a certain fantasy author.

"What are you kidding, letting that newcomer serialize my work but cutting it in half, is this the reward for my constant work for you?"

"Yes, the teacher was the pillar of Fantasy back then." The assistants chimed in.

On the walls of the studio, five bronze warriors with the zodiac signs of Greek mythology as the protagonists of the story, fighting to protect their common goddess, this is the eternal pride of a generation, but the popular manga artist who drew such a work is facing the result of cutting it in half before the new work has not been serialized for ten words.

"But Teacher, your new work is not interesting, and it has not received a good response from readers." The editor who was called to be the notice was also in a cold sweat, this kind of thing is really offensive!

"This is really deceptive!" Mr. Che Tian roared angrily and smashed the pen holder on the table: "Ahhhh ”

"Teacher, please wait, teacher......"

On the other side, at Toriyama-sensei's house, although the atmosphere is not as tense as that of Mr. Cheda, it is also a gloomy fog.

It can be said that the reason that directly led to such a drastic change in Fantasy today is the reason for Toriyama-sensei. I think that when Mr. Toriyama saw a manga on the train, he thought that he could also draw manga, and since then he has created an era, but when his last book "Dragon Pig" has no way to draw, and after it is over, Fantasy magazine has an avalanche, and sales have plummeted by 1 million, and the previous editor-in-chief was directly dismissed, which has also led to the current situation.

In a sense, the first two years were Fantasy's "Dragon Pig" competing against another giant on Saturday, Takahashi's "Garbished", but now Toriyama-sensei can't bear the pressure to finish, putting Fantasy in a very disadvantageous position, and the opponent is not only Saturday, but also the old rival weekly Amazing, as well as YoungGAGA and other new magazines that have sprung up to catch up, making the title of the first in the fantasy industry long undeserved.

"Hey, I'm still in a hurry, this will chill many old authors." Toriyama-sensei sighed when he heard the news.

Is this already the world of young people, he can't help but have such thoughts.

"So please make a new serialized work as soon as possible, with you in charge of the magazine, you will definitely be able to suppress these negative effects." The new editor said respectfully.

Toriyama sensei sighed when he saw this new editor, is this really the case, manga is a very stoic and decades-long work, it consumes not only the physical strength and health of the manga artist, but also the talent. When he was drawing the dragon pig, he originally wanted to finish the earth chapter, but the editorial office at the time didn't allow it, and the editor who used to take care of him very much said: "The earth is finished, so let the protagonist become the first in the universe." ”

That's it, he persevered for another two years, but the more he went to the back, the more he felt the pain of being the same and exhausted but not finishing, which made him now finish his work for more than half a year, and still haven't been able to come up with a work that satisfies himself, editors and readers.

Is his life as a manga artist over?,Toriyama-sensei sighed in the dim light.。
