Chapter 635: Three SSRs
Boss, after announcing the upcoming Dengeki Cup Manga Awards, our magazine has already received submissions from hundreds of cartoonists! A few days later, Kazuki Takahashi, who had become the editor-in-chief and president of the manga magazine, reported to Boss Jia with an excited face.
"Isn't that a good result?" Boss Jia asked with a smile.
"It's not good, it's pretty good!" Takahashi and Xi Dao, and then gave Boss Jia the knowledge of the comic awards.
The Comics Awards are not like the Oscars or Nobel Prizes, which are awarded professionally at global or national intervals every few years.
The comic book awards of comic magazines, in fact, to put it bluntly, are rewards for selecting excellent comic works for their own magazines.
Generally speaking, the Manga Awards are held every quarter or even once a month, and they accept submissions from manga artists from all over the country, and then select the best works from these submissions, and a part of the manga submitted in the collection can be serialized in magazines and periodicals.
This is the main way a manga magazine picks out works that are suitable for serialization.
For a magazine, the number of submissions at a comic awards determines the status of the magazine in the hearts of cartoonists.
For example, Shonen Jump receives more than 500 submissions every time they hold a manga awards.
This may not sound like much, but you must know that comics are not comics, comics are an extremely energy-consuming and mental thing, and a comic that can participate in the submission requires at least a month of careful creation to complete.
And how many potential manga artists can Fuso have at this time who can devote a month to caring about drawing comics?
So the number of 500 works is definitely a lot, and it can even be said that it contains more than 80% of the comics submitted in the same period, which is the charm of Shonen Jump and the attraction of the platform.
Otherwise, Boss Jia has to go to great lengths to make the brand of Shonen JUMP stink, why is it not staring at the cartoonists under those platforms! These are the greatest treasures!
And this time Boss Jia's plan is undoubtedly very successful, the magazine has just announced that it has accepted submissions for only 5 days, and has already received hundreds of works, and at this rate, it is estimated that it will be able to receive more than 300 comic submissions.
Although this number can't be compared with Shonen Jump, it has been able to surpass 90% of the senior magazines in the circle, which is a newcomer magazine, and it is a super treatment that I can't even imagine.
However, Boss Jia didn't show much pleasure, because Boss Jia knew very well that although there were a lot of submissions to comic works, most of them were waste products that could not be used, and garbage that could not attract readers.
"Show me the list of these comics!" Boss Jia said calmly, and then the list compiled by Takahashi and Nozomi was handed over to Boss Jia.
The reason why Boss Jia wants to see the list is, of course, that he hopes to be able to see some familiar names that he has seen in his previous life, so that he can pick out the excellent works in it as quickly as possible.
It's a pity that most of the comics on the list, Boss Jia has basically never heard of them, and it is estimated that they were cannon fodder-level works in his previous life, and Boss Jia didn't care.
After looking at more than 60 names, Boss Jia's eyes finally lit up, and they were bright.
This name is called: "Detective Conan", and then look at the name of the manga artist: Aoyama Gosho.
Alright, this time it's all right!
Boss Jia excitedly nodded this name, and then continued to look at it, but it didn't take long for him to see a familiar name.
"Rogue Kenshin", the manga artist's name is Nobuhiro Kazuki.
And at the end of the list, Boss Jia actually gained again, and saw the four names of "Initial D", although the name of the cartoonist Boss Jia doesn't remember, but the comics that can be called such a remote name in the world can't be wrong.
This feeling is as pleasant as pulling out three SSRs in a row of 10 draws.
"You can find me the submissions for these three comics!" Boss Jia said with the names of these three comics.
"Good!" Although Takahashi and Nozomi don't know why Boss Jia attaches so much importance to these three comics just by looking at the name, the boss is the day, Takahashi and Nozomi asked their secretary to find the submission of these three comics as quickly as possible and handed it to Boss Jia.
Boss Jia took a cursory look at it, and then completely relieved himself, there is nothing wrong with these three comics being the three peak-level comics in his previous life.
Among them, the characters of "Detective Conan" and "Rogue Kenshin" are exactly the same as in their previous lives, while the characters of "Initial D" are slightly different, they look more youthful than in their previous lives, and their drawing skills are worse, and it seems that the manga artist's personal ability is still improving.
"What do you think of these three comics?" Boss Jia put these three comics in front of Takahashi and Nozomi again, and asked Takahashi and Nozomi to give an evaluation.
"Hey!" Kazuki Takahashi picked up these three comics, began to read them carefully, and finally took a deep breath and said, "The chairman really has a good eye, this detective Conan and Rogue Kenshin are both top comics that can make people refreshed, and it is definitely an honor for our magazine to be able to get such a cartoonist to join!" ”
"Oh, what about this Initial D?" Boss Jia asked again.
"This ...... The plot is okay.,But the painting style is too bad.,It still needs to be honed.,In addition, it seems that the heroine doesn't look cute at all.,That's important! Kazuki Takahashi said.
"It's not just cute, it's just a desire to make readers kill!" Thinking of the heroine of the initial D, Boss Jia muttered, and then put these three comics again, and then said, "I don't care how you rank the names of these three comics, but these three comics, I hope they can be selected for our first serial lineup!" ”
"Hey!" With the full power of construction capital, and after Boss Jia turned his hands into clouds and rain, and tossed the invincible boy jump enough, Takahashi and Nozomi became very smart, and they never refuted Boss Jia's words, and dealt with everything as the truth.
Kazuki Takahashi never thought that he was really the owner of this magazine, and he still knew this very clearly.
"Let's go, come with me, let's go visit these three cartoonists in person!" Boss Jia stood up and said.
"What! Chairman, there's no need for this......" Kazuki Takahashi was a little shocked, he thought that Boss Jia just took a fancy to the works of these three. I didn't expect that Boss Jia would attach so much importance to it.
"What was most important in the 20th century?" Boss Jia asked rhetorically.
"This ......," Kazuki Takahashi shook their heads.
"Talent!" Boss Jia said loudly, "You are a talent, so I helped you to the position of president." And these three are also talents, so I'm going to visit them personally, and I'm going to get them firmly into my hands. ”
"Hey!" Takahashi and Nozomi nodded suddenly in realization, the chairman is Gao!
