Chapter 374 - Signing a Contract

Contracts have always been very difficult to draft. In particular, in terms of core interests, the two magazines did not back down from each other, and in the end, the model of work exchange did not take shape.

However, considering that Haruka Tamagawa was going to create in Huaxia, and the editing was also provided by "Comic Future", therefore, the manga "game" was first published in two magazines at the same time, and "Comic Future" paid Haruka Tamagawa's manuscript fee and royalties to buy out the comic copyright of "game" in Huaxia.

Shonen Leap wanted to do the same, but Comic Future rejected it.

"Steel" is a work that will be at a premium in the future, and "Comic Future" will not consider selling "Steel" at all, which means that even if it is a loss in hand, "Comic Future" will admit it.

After the contract was signed, it was heralded that Huaxia and the two largest comic magazines in District 11 had started to cooperate.

"We also have a condition, since Mr. Shen and Mr. Yuchuan are both in District 11, we require that they must submit the original manuscript three weeks in advance, and we can arrange the layout." Murakami proposed.

Shang Haozhi agreed.

Both parties are satisfied with this cooperation.

Shonen Leap didn't suffer a loss, even though they sold the rights to game.

The price of "Game" refers to "Slam Dunk", and the income of a single episode is 10% more than that of "Slam Dunk".

This is Tamagawa Haruka's work across the genre, and the risk of failure is very high. Therefore, there is a high probability that the income of this comic in China will not be able to surpass "Slam Dunk", for them, this is a profitable business.

At the same time, Comic Future is also acceptable.

Through the setting and name, they can't judge that "Game" has the potential to become a big hit, but it needs to be carefully polished, so the choice of editors is particularly important, and Yan Fei, who understands Japanese and has strength, has become the first choice.

As for whether to make money, it has become secondary.

It's not that Comic Future has a lot of money, but a big magazine like Comic Future has to have a few popular titles, even if they lose money.

The magazine does not make money by referring to a manga, but to gain popularity and not lose the popularity of "Comic Future". A new work by a famous manga artist is more likely to attract popularity.

In addition, if the work is really good, they can also use "Game" to compete for the best foreign comic award, which will bring a lot of money.

This result is also the best choice for Yuchuan Haruka, although leaving his hometown will make him have a lot of inconvenience in life, but he can contact a better editor in charge and officially compete with Shen Xin, which makes his heart full of strength.

After the contract was signed, he immediately prepared the materials and handed them to Shang Haozhi to apply for a work visa. At the same time, he also told Yan Fei the news.

"Please, Sister Yan, please help me." Haruka Tamagawa made a request.

“…… But I'm already working. ”

Yan Fei's scalp is numb, she has just been working for a few days, she can't resign now, right?

Tamagawa was speechless, so he could only go to Shang Haozhi for help.

Soon after Shang Haozhi returned to China, he immediately visited Yan Fei in person.

People sometimes don't accept their fate, he thought that if Yan Fei didn't want to come, he wouldn't force it. As a result, after a big turn, he still had to invite Yan Fei.

Yan Fei was in a dilemma. To put it bluntly, she prefers to follow up on comics than to be the editor-in-chief and be in charge of daily affairs, especially the idea of "Game" was thought up by her and Haruka Tamagawa, and she is also very much looking forward to this comic being a book.

It's just that the contract has been signed, and she can't do much.

In the end, Shang Haozhi went to the boss of the magazine and had two meals before the boss let go.

The introduction of works from "Comic Future" and "Shonen Leap" caused an uproar in the industry.

Usually, Huaxia Magazine introduces comics from District 11, but this time, "Shonen Leap" imports comics from "Comic Future", which is really rare.

Although "Chess Soul" was also serialized simultaneously in "Shonen Leap", it was because "Chess Soul" had been proven by the market in advance, but this time it was different, and the comics had been sold before the serialization began, which is really rare.

The other two of the three major magazines were under pressure, especially "Manga Fly", and Haruka Tamagawa's new work was moved to "Comic Future", which meant that they could no longer introduce the manga and had to find a new replacement.

……

Shen Xin was surprised when he heard Wang Wenhong's introduction in the magazine.

It's also incredible.

is equivalent to turning a big circle, Yan Fei joined "Comic Future" again, only this time, she became the editor in charge of Haruka Tamagawa.

It seems that there is still no fate of cooperation between him and Yan Fei.

"By the way, Haruka Tamagawa's new work, have you seen it?"

"Hmm. It's new, but it feels like a combination of several types of comics. Wang Wenhong explained.

Shen Xin smiled and held his cheeks with one hand, "Now, the so-called novelty is a combination of existing knowledge or comics. ”

"Yes." Wang Wenhong tilted his head and thought for a moment, agreeing with Shen Xin's words, "Actually, his type has appeared in animation, but it is rare in comics." ”

Wang Wenhong briefly introduced the name of Haruka Tamagawa.

"Are you sure you're not wearing just one world?" Shen Xin said in surprise.

"Of course I'm sure, that's what Mr. Tamagawa said." Wang Wenhong nodded.

Shen Xin rubbed his chin, he didn't expect that Yuchuan Yao and Yan Fei actually thought of "infinite flow", but the term "infinite flow" originated from the largest "Infinite Horror", and this world does not have this, therefore, there is no such statement.

Z Big "Infinite Horror" is the earliest "infinite streaming" network, and the comic "Killing City" in District 11 is also this model.

Before "Killing City", around the nineties, District 11 also released an animation called "Zodiac Guardian Saint", in which the protagonists traveled through various fairy tales, which can be regarded as "infinite stream".

If you push it further, the earlier infinite stream is Teacher Zheng Yuanjie's "Rubik's Cube Mansion".

In short, this type of work is a kind of cross-comic, superimposing different worlds on top of each other, which can often be refreshing, plus the ontology of "game", there is a feeling of "As God Said", therefore, Shen Xin is full of expectations for this comic.

It's just that because he didn't see the name of "Game", Shen Xin couldn't evaluate the whole work, so he could only hope that Yan Fei could help Yuchuan Yao polish "Game".

Shen Xin stretched his waist, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled.

"What's wrong?" Wang Wenhong was puzzled.

"In the next few years, "Comic Future" may be very interesting...... "Steel", "Game", "Legend of the Dragon King", "Hunting Abyss", if Mr. Shi Yan can come up with a standard work after "Killer Diary". So, the competition for the "Comic Future" little book will be more intense, right? ”

After Shen Xin mentioned it, Wang Wenhong realized that after the trip to District 11, the works of "Comic Future" were enriched again.
