Chapter 336: Puzzle

"Little book...... The little book came out. ”

Hook shouted, and the editor of the magazine immediately opened the mailbox.

"How? Who is number one? Xu Jie asked curiously.

""Chess Soul", it has won several first places in a row before, and this sentence is over again, and it should be able to win the first place."

"I feel like 'Chess Soul' has broken ComicFuture's record in some ways." Wang Wenhong said with a smile.

Jian Xiaomei just wanted to refute, but felt that Wang Wenhong's words were also reasonable.

The length of the comic is set within 200 words, and "Chess Soul" is estimated to be the comic that has won the first place in the small book.

This shows that Mr. Shen's choice is not wrong. One "Y's", one "Chess Soul", all classics. Shang Haozhi said.

"Editor-in-chief, why don't the company buy the rights to Y's? Mr. Shen will definitely choose to serialize. Wang Wenhong said immediately.

"You think I don't want to?" Shang Haozhi sighed, "But people don't sell it - the most valuable comic of "Neorld" now is "Y's", and the movie copyright seems to have been sold, and it is estimated that it will be released this year, and it can't be bought at all." ”

Wang Wenhong pursed his mouth and didn't make a sound.

"By the way, "Chess Soul" is now over, we lack a competitive comic that carries the beam, you guys hurry up and think of a way to find a comic with a competitive theme above the level." Shang Haozhi tapped the table.

Different comic magazines have different emphasis.

Some manga magazines focus on shoujo manga, so they don't publish shonen manga. For example, some manga magazines focus on elementary or middle school students, while others focus on horror comics.

But as the first of the three major Chinese magazines, "ComicFuture" must cover popular comic genres, and at least one work above the standard, any comic book lover, can find their favorite comics.

The end of "Chess Soul" means that "ComicFuture" is missing a big hole in competitive comics, and it must find a way to find a replacement as soon as possible.

The editorial office looked at each other, but no one said anything.

Shang Haozhi tapped the table twice, slightly dissatisfied, turned his head to look at Zeng Yue, deputy editor-in-chief, and said in a low voice: "Zeng Yue, you look at the latest submissions more." ”

Zeng Yue nodded, "Got it." ”

"Also, Wang Wenhong, what is Teacher Shen doing now?" Shang Haozhi turned his head to look at Wang Wenhong.

"Sleeping, reading, running...... By the way, I recently got a library card. Wang Wenhong explained.

"Library card?" Shang Haozhi was surprised.

"I heard that I wanted to find ideas while reading a book. By the way, he said that he wanted to see more than 500,000 comics sold by our magazine. Wang Wenhong said.

"Then hurry up and find it...... Is there any stock in the warehouse? ”

"Some of them are gone." Wang Wenhong was a little worried.

After all, some comics are out of print, and even in the warehouse, it's not easy to find.

Shang Haozhi was slightly stunned, and then rubbed his forehead, "This is indeed a problem, after all, there are many comics that are too long and do not sell well, so they will not be reprinted." And even if it is reprinted, the cost will be relatively large, and it is likely that it will not be able to make ends meet. ”

Even if it was a smash hit manga at the time, if it was too long, sales would go downhill.

Wang Wenhong pouted, and there was not much he could do.

"In this way, in the first half of this year, your most important job is to follow Teacher Shen."

"I have other writers to ......," Wang reminded.

Shang Haozhi flipped through the report, "Anyway, that's it before the Spring Festival, everything has to be done after the Spring Festival, including the new competitive comics." ”

Zeng Yue nodded and did not make a sound.

At this moment, Shang Haozhi's landline rang.

Shang Haozhi picked up the microphone and said softly: "This is the editorial department." ”

"Lao Shang, come up for a moment."

Shang Haozhi was stunned, he could hear that it was Bao Jiyi's words, and listening to Bao Jiyi's tone, it shouldn't be like a good thing.

After hanging up the phone, Shang Haozhi felt a little surprised in his heart, and after thinking about it, he couldn't understand it.

Or ask Bao Jiyi in person, right?

When he came to Bao Jiyi's office, Bao Jiyi was leaning on the boss's chair and looking out of the window with a bored expression.

Hearing that the door was pushed open, Bao Jiyi turned his chair and looked at Shang Haozhi in front of him.

"What's the matter? Call me in such a hurry? Shang Haozhi pulled the chair in front of Bao Jiyi and made it.

"The production of the animation of the third season of "Chess Soul" may be difficult." Bao Jiyi sighed.

"Why?" Shang Haozhi frowned slightly.

"Han Guoqi Academy put pressure through official channels, saying that Gao Yongxia is in the picture. Shoot. Park Yong-tae. They feel it's insulting. Bao Jiyi sighed.

Originally, Park Yongtai and Gao Yongxia had little intersection, but the game in Hongchuan in December was too close to the time when the Beidou Cup was published, and it was easy for people to think about it.

"That's their business, what does it have to do with us?" Shang Haozhi was puzzled.

Through the government, Han Guo spread their attitude to Hongchuan City, and at the same time, the board of directors also put pressure on ...... Some game companies on the Han side also made representations. Under the pressure of the District Chess Academy, the production of the third season has been abandoned. Long Yao is also hesitating, after all, if they want to produce animation of the same quality alone, the cost will be doubled, and it is estimated that they will lose money, so they don't want to do it alone. ”

None of the animation companies are charities, and the project has to make money for them to be interested in keeping up.

"I remember you seem to have made a bet with Teacher Shen, right? Animation is a must. Shang Haozhi reminded.

"Yes! That's why I'm worried. Bao Jiyi took a breath.

I didn't know what was wrong at the time, so I suddenly made a bet with Shen Xin.

"And what do you want to do?" Shang Haozhi asked rhetorically.

"I'm wondering if I can discuss it with Shen Xin and let him give up. For the production of an animation, there is no need to fight with the Han National Chess Academy. It's a big deal, when he releases a new book, we will package his new book and tilt the resources a little bit. Bao Jiyi asked Shang Haozhi.

"How to tilt? Shen Xin hasn't signed a contract yet, and he is no longer our author. Shang Haozhi sneered.

"Not finalized yet?" Bao Jiyi was surprised.

Shang Haozhi pursed his lips and asked rhetorically: "What the chairman promised, he can not be trusted. How do you make him believe in us, and what do we rely on to finalize his contract? ”

When Bao Jiyi heard this, he folded his arms and looked depressed.

If you sign a contract, it doesn't matter, it's really not good, if you put Shen Xin cool for a year, it is estimated that you will be honest. But now that Shen Xin has not signed the contract, the matter is another story.

"What now? Contact Shen Xin first? Bao Jiyi asked.

Shang Haozhi pushed the landline to Bao Jiyi, "You contact him, I can't open my mouth." ”

Bao Jiyi has a black line, and he can't open his mouth.

Shen Xin did win the bet, he can't be a person who doesn't believe his word, right?

Give up Shen Xin...... Let him go to MangaFly? It is estimated that "MangaFly" will send him a pennant.

Shang Haozhi saw that Bao Jiyi didn't mean to pick up the phone, so he also fell into deep thought.

The two of them sat in the office, and the air was quiet for 10 minutes.

In the end, Shang Haozhi suddenly said: "I have a way, maybe I can solve this problem." ”

"What's the solution?" Bao Ji looked at Shang Haozhi puzzled.

"Public opinion." Shang Haozhi explained, "Our pressure mainly comes from two aspects, one is that if the official channels put pressure, and the other is the lack of animation production companies. Now, we need someone who can help us handle the pressure, and then we need to find a strong animation production company. ”

"Can you find it?"

"Try it first, even if it doesn't work, you won't lose anything." Shang Haozhi asked.

Bao Jiyi rubbed his chin, which seemed to make some sense.

"Let's try it then, shall we?"
