My Cartoonist Guide

　　 Shang Haozhi took the notepad and came to the chairman's office.

　　 In the office, Bao Jiyi is drinking tea with two people.

Shang Haozhi knew the thin middle-aged man among them. His name was Toru Murakami. He was the editor-in-chief of "Juvenile Leap". It was the first time for Shang Haozhi to sit next to the slightly fattened young man. see.

　　 Toru Murakami and the fat young man saw Shang Haozhi coming in, immediately stood up, bowed slightly to Shang Haozhi, Shang Haozhi also nodded slightly out of courtesy.

　　 "Old Shang, you came just right, Mr. Murakami is going to introduce the comics of our magazine, you help recommend two." Bao Jiyi nudged the frame.

"Ok."

　　 Shang Haozhi can be regarded as familiar with these things. After sitting down, he opened the notepad, glanced at the young man, and smiled: "Are you Mr. Murakami's translator?"

　　 The young man waved his hands again and again, "No, my name is Makoto Yokoi, and I am the editor of "Shoun Leap"."

　　 Mandarin is not too standard, but Shang Haozhi can understand it.

　　 "You are an editor, I haven't seen you very much before." Shang Haozhi said in surprise.

　　 "That... wasn't in "Shoun Leap" before," Yokoi explained.

　　 "It turned out to be like this... Since you can understand Mandarin, can you understand Chinese characters?"

　　 Yokoi nodded. When he was studying Chinese myths and legends, he did a lot of hard work with Huaxia. Although he might be "missing arms and legs" when he was asked to write, he still had no problems with literacy and simple communication.

　　 Shang Hiroshi moved his gaze to his notebook, and he had a general understanding in his heart. It seemed that Murakami had come prepared.

　　 "Old Shang, can you start introducing?" Bao Jiyi urged.

"Well. Over the past year, "omifuture" has also produced many good works, such as "Heartbeat Pointer", which is a love comic. So far, 12 volumes have been sold. On average, the sales volume of each volume All of them are more than 600,000 volumes, and the number of "small books" every week is also stable at six to eight."

　　 Shang Haozhi’s notebook contains small books with recommended comics, and Shang Haozhi even made a graph of the ranking of the small books. As he said, the ranking curve of "Heartbeat Pointer" is very smooth.

　　 Yokoi took advantage of this time to translate Shang Haozhi's words to Murakami Toru, while Bao Jiyi squinted his eyes, paying attention to Murakami's look.

　　 Since Murakami Toru entered the building of Yishu Culture, Bao Jiyi did not intend to let Murakami go back empty-handed, and at least brought a few comics back to "leap".

　　 However, Bao Jiyi also noticed that Murakami seems to be dissatisfied with the works recommended by Shang Haozhi, and his expression has not been eased.

　　 After the two communicated, Yokoi sat up straight again, looking a little embarrassed. "Mr. Shang, this work is very common in District 11. We will not sell it when we introduce it to Japan."

　　 "That's it..." Shang Haozhi took the notepad back again, ready to look for the next comic.

　　 Murakami frowned, and whispered a few words to Yokoi's ear.

　　 Yokoi nodded, and said to Shang Haozhi: "Mr. Shang, our editor-in-chief does not want to go in circles. We are here this time because we want to introduce "Gossip"."

""Soul of the Game"?" Shang Haozhi was taken aback. "However, "Soul of the Game" has only published three pamphlets. If your company introduces it, would it be a bit early? According to your company's habit, it is not when you want to wait for six or seven volumes. Bring it together again?"

When Bao Jiyi heard Yokoi mentioning "Soul of Go", he also pushed the frame. He was concerned about another thing, "Mr. Yokoi, listening to what you said, I seem to look forward to "Soul of Go"? Is this manga popular in District 11? ?"

　　 "Uh...it's more popular in some forums." Yokoi explained quickly.

　　 Bao Jiyi's mouth turned up, with a smile on his face, his legs up, his fingers tapped his knees, his eyes lit up.

　　 Murakami and Yokoi discussed for a while, and then Yokoi said again, "Thinking can be changed. Mr. Shang, our editor-in-chief would like to see the next manuscript that has not been published. May I ask?"

what?

　　 Shang Haozhi was surprised. Few people would ask to see the manuscript of the next episode.

　　 "Of course there is no problem, please wait a moment." Bao Jiyi directly agreed, "However, the two can only look at the copy, not the original."

　　 "No problem. A copy will do." Yokoi nodded quickly.

　　 Bao Jiyi turned the color on Shang Haozhi, Shang Haozhi nodded slightly, picked up the landline on the desk, and dialed Wang Wenhong's phone.

　　Wang Wenhong was thinking about aori, when the landline in front of him suddenly sounded and he was taken aback.

　　 The eyes of other people in the editorial department immediately focused on Wang Wenhong.

They previously excluded "Hairki" not because the quality of "Hairki" was not enough, but "Hairki" only published three volumes, the uncertainty behind was too great, and 11 districts often imported well-known comics, these editors He habitually ignored "The Soul of Chess".

　　 When Wang Wenhong put down the phone, Hook on the other side immediately asked: "What's the matter?"

　　 "I don't know." Wang Wenhong shook his head, "Ms. Shang just asked me to send a copy of the original manuscript of the latest statement."

　　 "It turned out to be "Soul of Goss"!"

"No, if it is really introduced to Area 11, then the speed will be too fast..." Soul of Go" has only released three volumes so far. There are more than a dozen volumes of comics in the back, waiting in line? "

　　 "So envy!"

　　Wang Wenhong rubbed his nose, "Don't say that, it's still undecided!"

　　 At this time, you must calm down. If you behave too proudly, once you are not selected, you will be ashamed.

　　 "Regardless, if it is really "Gossip", please come back to dinner."

　　 "Let's talk about it later... Let's talk about it later."

　　Wang Wenhong didn't have the time to wrestle with these people. He made a copy of the manuscript of Chapter 5, then took the copy and went to the chairman's office.

　　 Adjust your mood outside the door~www.NovelMTL.com~Wang Wenhong tapped on the office door twice.

　　 Shang Haozhi said please come in, and then Wang Wenhong opened the door.

　　 The four people in the house turned their heads to look at Wang Wenhong, and he suddenly felt nervous.

　　 Through the gap of closing the door, Wang Wenhong once again had a steady breath, and then walked towards the four people present with confidence.

　　 "This is the editor in charge of "Soul of the Game", Wang Wenhong." Shang Haozhi took the copy from Wang Wenhong and briefly introduced him to Murakami and Yokoi.

　　 Murakami smiled and nodded, while Yokoi stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with Wang Wenhong, which was beyond Wang Wenhong's expectation.

　　 Shang Haozhi roughly checked the manuscript, and when there was no major disclosure, he handed it to Yokoi again.

After receiving the manuscript, Yokoi's line of sight never left. Just about to turn the page, he realized that Murakami was also approaching, so he coughed and said to Shang Haozhi, "Mr. Shang, can I write on it? ?"

　　 "Of course, these are just photocopies."

　　 "Then... can you borrow a pen?"

　　 Shang Hiroshi immediately handed Yokoi the signature pen in the notepad, and after seeing Yokoi and Murakami saying a few words, he lay down on the coffee table and translated the dialogue into Japanese.

　　 The other four people could only stare at Yokoi dryly, no one was talking in the room, and the atmosphere immediately became dull.

　　 About half an hour later, Yokoi sat up straight and handed the manuscript to Murakami. Murakami couldn't wait to fix his eyes on the manuscript.
