Chapter 229 Results of "Millennium Actress"
"You don't usually communicate with Tanaka-san." Higashino was helpless, he felt that Omori had also become depressed.

Tanaka was immersed in drawing manga. Hearing this sentence, he looked up in disbelief. He pointed at himself, feeling that he had been accidentally injured.

Omori was silent for a long time, and he said, "Yes, I understand."

The longer he stayed here with Bird Akino, the more he felt his own powerlessness.

The gap between him and Bird Akino's future is too big, and the gap cannot be seen.

For a while, he felt that hard work was useless, his life was shrouded in fog, and he was so confused that he couldn't find a way forward.

……

The noise of the Nakajima house stopped.

"Mom is too much." Rubbing her butt, Akane Nakajima wanted to cry but had no tears.

"Hmph," said Mrs. Nakajima proudly, "don't read manga in school anymore."

While she was talking, she was watching "The Prince of Tennis", the work of the cartoonist named Xu Feigang, and she was also very curious.

The plot of the first episode is the match between Echizen Ryoma and Sasakibe.

This kind of work is fiercely contradictory at the beginning, without explaining the background clearly, Mrs. Nakajima is a little confused.

Tennis was also played back and forth, and she was dazzled.

""Millennium Actress" is a special case."

She really doesn't understand juvenile manga.

Just as Mrs. Nakajima put down the jump, she heard Akane Nakajima say in surprise, "It's jump! Mom, you are reading manga, but you won't let me read it, you're stingy."

Mrs. Nakajima replied: "I am such a mother."

"Ah! It's too foul!" Akane Nakajima was very angry.

It seemed that she had provoked her daughter too much, Mrs. Nakajima changed the subject, "You said "Millennium Actress" is boring, why?"

"Because it's too plain." Akane Nakajima forgot what happened just now, she replied: "Interviewing a story about an actress, what's so interesting about it."

"The manga on "Weekly Shonen Jump" must have "friendship, hard work, and victory"! "

Mrs. Nakajima understood that "Millennium Actress" is an unconventional work.

No wonder she finds the comic funny.

She asked, "Did you understand the last part?"

Akane Nakajima showed a confused expression, "Army? It feels so inexplicable."

""The whole world is full of crises like gambling, and everything keeps turning to the right." This sentence is so strange, what I want to say, but I don't make it clear.Mr. Bird Akino has also become a riddler. "

This is also the reason why she doesn't like "Millennium Actress".

"Do your classmates think the same way?" asked Mrs. Nakajima.

"Yes." Akane Nakajima nodded, "Compared with Mr. Akino Tori's other works, "Millennium Actress" is a bit boring."

"However, Ah Gang likes this work very much." She said again.

Mrs. Nakajima: "Then he has great taste."

Akane Nakajima is not happy, doesn't this mean that she has no taste?
"Damn Akatsuki!"

……

The next day, Higashino was watching "Slam Dunk" at five o'clock in the afternoon.

This is the 83rd episode. With the help of the Sakuragi Legion, Sakuragi Hanamichi completed the feat of 2 hits in a week.

"I remember that in the last world, this place was not animated until around episode 95." Higashino thought with his head down.

No wonder Mr. Inoue Takehiko is angry. The practice of forcibly dragging the rhythm for the sake of ratings is not in line with Inoue Takehiko's wishes.

There is a reason why he took back the copyright of Toei Productions National Competition.

And it's not just the conflict over his finishing Slam Dunk.

But in this world, things are much better.

That Kaede Inoue supervisor was not sloppy.The competition was completed heartily, and the budget was full, which is a high-end production effect.

The single volume of "Slam Dunk" reached 390 million copies, and a large part of the credit belongs to the animation production team.

Higashino's luck is really good, and he walked quite smoothly on the road of manga.

The production teams of "Soul of Chess" and "Slam Dunk" have worked hard, and the results shown are also amazing.

Under the excellence of the original work, it has attracted many new readers.

Just when Higashino Hibiki was moved, he heard the ringing of the mobile phone, and the person who called was the supervisor Kaede Inoue.

"Tori Akino-sensei, do you have time? I want to discuss with you the follow-up production of the "Slam Dunk" animation."

"Of course there is time."

So they agreed to meet the next day, and it seemed that he was in a hurry.

At the same time, the editorial department of "Weekly Shonen Jump".

Quick report results came out.

In the questionnaire of 100 readers, the order of ranking is "Slam Dunk", "Prince of Tennis", "Millennium Actress"...

Sasaki's eyes widened, he couldn't believe it.

"Slam Dunk hasn't started yet, has it? You actually got No.1." Bottle Jijiu came over with the report, and he adjusted his glasses, also shocked.

"It's because of Mr. Bird Akino's subtle portrayal of the king of the mountain." Sasaki explained.

Sanno is the strongest basketball team in high school.

Especially this year, they easily defeated the seniors of the previous year.

Every player in Shanwang is a top star player.

When facing the king Hainan last time, they surpassed 30 points, which was an overwhelming victory.

So before the game actually started, readers felt the powerful pressure of the undefeated Sanno Industries.

Moreover, in the face of Xiangbei with a c-level evaluation.

Every player of Sanno has not let up, and has been persistently looking for the weakness of every player in Xiangbei.

Hisashi Mitsui has a two-year blank period and lacks physical strength; Ryota Miyagi has a low shooting percentage; Takenori Akagi has a single offensive method and a limited range;

As for Yingmu Huadao, this newcomer is full of loopholes.

Sanwang's analysis makes sense.

Countless readers have rethought the plot, which is indeed the case.

Everyone in Xiangbei has shortcomings.And the king of the mountain is flawless.

Coupled with this serious attitude, it is not at all the plot of the king's team letting go of water and being stolen by the protagonist team in sports comics.

There is no gap at all.

Facing Shanwang, Akagi and the others lost their mentality again.Except for Rukawa Kaede, the pressure on the others is very high.

No one is optimistic about Xiangbei, and all the audience are here for the king of the mountain.

They will cheer for Xiangbei at the beginning, but when the mountain king falls into a disadvantage, they will support the mountain king wholeheartedly.

This kind of unequal lineup is like hitting a stone with a pebble, it is a game of breaking the boat.

Dark clouds are overwhelming the city, and the aura has enveloped the readers of "Slam Dunk".

They are looking forward to the official game more and more.

I want to see the slight hope in Coach Anxi's mouth.

So now, even if it is a transitional chapter that paves the way, "Slam Dunk" still won the Quick Report No.1.

To Sasaki's surprise, "Millennium Actress" only ranked third.

From his professional point of view, this work is really good, and it is the most amazing manga by Tori Akino Mirai.

Although it is expected that teenagers will not catch "Millennium Actress", but it is not possible to only get No.3 in the first chapter when there is a front page.

"Tori Akino-kun's performance when he debuted is better than what he is now." Sasaki whispered to himself.

"I am also very strange." Bottle said.

……

The ranking this time is really strange. The editors are very optimistic about the works, but the readers are cold.

"This is the significance of Xiaozheng's ranking." Kazuhiko Torishima concluded.

As an editor, I can't recognize the laws of the market, so I need a positive ranking that best represents the interests of readers.

"Yes, chief editor." Sasaki and Bottle lowered their heads slightly.

There are some cartoonists who have a lot of opinions on the small positive ranking theory, but this time it proves the role of small positive rankings.

Even for a manga artist like Mirai Tori Akino, his philosophical manga will fail in the juvenile market.

Torishima Kazuhiko nodded, and said to Azijiu Yoshihisa: "You summarize the readers' evaluation of "Millennium Actress", and I will read it later."

"I see."

……

Half an hour later, Sasaki called.

Higashino was a little surprised. Today is only Tuesday, and Xiaozheng's grades will not be until Friday.

He didn't ask Sasaki to inform him about the quick report ranking, that would be too troublesome.

Even if it is Xiaozheng's ranking, unless his grades have dropped a lot, or Xiaozheng is No. 1, he only needs Sasaki to tell him.

Higashino Hibiki's heart skipped a beat, it seems that the performance of "Millennium Actress" is not satisfactory.

He answered the call quickly.

Sasaki said: "Slam Dunk is ranked number one."

"Ah."

Higashino can feel it, perhaps because it has been decided to end "Slam Dunk" after the battle of the king of the mountain. Before the battle of the king of the mountain, Takehiko Inoue has a taste of the mountain full of buildings.

And let go of everything, end the long-term pressure, and go into battle with ease, that kind of hearty energy.

The current content, even if there is no competition, is very exciting.

Inoue Takehiko's talent is fully displayed, and he is not stingy with his own ideas.

Has reached a pinnacle of this work.

Higashino himself was looking forward to the final game.

That kind of can't wait is almost like a volcanic eruption.

No wonder after 26 years of waiting, there are still countless readers' strong support for the big movie "Slam Dunk".

"What about "Millennium Actress"?" Higashino asked.

He already had psychological expectations.

"After "The Prince of Tennis", the No.3 of the quick report?" He asked speculatively.

After a while, Sasaki replied: "That's right."

Quick Report No.3...

Higashino guessed right, but he was still momentarily absent-minded.

Even if it is the first chapter of a novice cartoonist's work, it basically has a No.2 score, and No.3 is too bad.

What's more, it is the work of Akino Mirai?

Without this title, the grades will be even worse.

Higashino Hibiki was a little disappointed, he spent so much energy, but the results were not satisfactory.

Suddenly, he thought of Akira Toriyama.

"COWA!" by Akira Toriyama "The grades were worse, but he didn't care, because what he drew was what he wanted to draw.

Even "COWA! " was the worst in his manga, but Akira Toriyama still said that among his works, his favorite manga is "COWA! ".
