Chapter 248 Aren't there still rich and treacherous old thieves?

Horiuchi Marue's words hit everyone's hearts. If next week's weekly jump sales are reduced by 50%, then it will not only cause monetary losses, but also damage the reputation accumulated over the years. This is the most important point. of!

Weekly jump sales have declined, which means that the quality of manga is not as good as before. Maybe this is not a big problem for small and medium-sized publishing houses, but the golden signboard of weekly jump will not be as good as before, and Kodansha and Shogakukan will also take advantage of the opportunity .

Even if they are rivals, Shueisha has to admit that Kodansha and Shogakukan are indeed becoming more and more popular now. Although the two works "Fairy Tail" and "Inuyasha" are not phenomenon-level manga, they are still good works.

One of the main themes of the weekly jump is "friendship", "effort" and "victory". However, this week's comprehensive number one is the love harem-oriented "The Queen".

It’s not that Mr. Yabuki Kentaro’s work "Princess Outlet" is not good. If the work is not excellent, it will not be eligible to be serialized in the weekly jump.

Being able to be serialized in the weekly jump is a kind of affirmation in itself.It's just that the current weekly jump makes them feel complicated, and they seem to be hearing the silent ridicule from others.

"That...isn't there Teacher Fujin?"

Matsuzawa Kazuki said hesitantly, and they had expected this to happen in Dragon Ball, after all Shueisha still had Yoshihiro Togashi.

The manga of Hunter x Hunter is no worse than a phenomenon-level manga. If it wasn't for the update, it would have already become a phenomenon-level manga.

Encountered difficulties at the moment, Kazuki Matsuzawa immediately thought of Yoshihiro Togashi, the manga master who can now support Shueisha's golden signature.

"Yeah, Matsuzawa-kun, you are right, we still have Mr. Togashi Yoshihiro, and the full-time hunter who is being serialized, but this time Mr. Tokina will be able to last for a month or two months, who knows this question? "

There was a bitter smile on the corner of Ishimoto Junichi's mouth, there was no sarcasm in it, but a light explanation of a fact, Matsuzawa Kazuki blushed upon hearing this.

A small number of people in the meeting room also shook their heads secretly. Kazuki Matsuzawa was right. In this situation, Yoshihiro Togashi, who is playing mahjong, can be serialized. In view of so many years of affection, I believe the other party would also like to stand up.

But as Junichi Ishimoto said, even if Yoshihiro Togashi stood up, he would only pick up a pen and serialize for a month or two at most.

During this period of time, Shueisha's sales are indeed no problem, and there is a high possibility that the sales will be very good, but there are still seven months left in this year. Even if Yoshihiro Togashi has been serialized for two months, after two months, There are still five months left in the year...

The distant water cannot save the near fire, and it is impossible to force Yoshihiro Togashi to serialize, because the two parties have already signed the contract. Heed Shueisha's request.

"At this point, we can only ask Mr. Fu Jian to come out to help."

There was a trace of melancholy between Horiuchi Marue's brows, and her tone of voice was rather helpless when she spoke.

If possible, Horiuchi Marue didn't want to use this hole card, and things like favors should be used one less time, but this is also something that can't be helped.

If the weekly jump sales are reduced by 50%, I believe that all kinds of reports and news on TV will emerge the next day.

Thinking of this, Horiuchi Marue felt a headache again, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his temples, and after a while he recovered, and continued to say to everyone: "There are still one to two months left for us. During the buffer period, we have to prepare for the worst and treat the remaining time as a month.

During this period of time, I hope that you can vigorously tap newcomers with good potential. In addition, I will leave it to the editor-in-chief Iida from the teacher of the master, and I will trouble the editor-in-chief of Matsumoto to ask Mr. Fujin to come out for serialization. Please ask Fu as much as possible. Teacher Jian can make the serialization time longer. "

"Okay, President."

Everyone shouted in unison, and now only by using this plan can the immediate crisis be resolved.

During the serialization period of the full-time hunter, maybe a very good newcomer who can carry the big tripod will be discovered. Although this possibility is very small, we still have to try.

Editor-in-Chief Matsumoto, Iida Ayano and others know that Horiuchi Marue really puts all his hopes on the God Lord. As long as the plot of Dragon Ball can return to the level of the first three episodes, all the current problems will disappear.

In fact, there is another option, which is to ask Kubo to lead someone to continue drawing the manga of the Grim Reaper type during this period of time. This method is the safest.

It's a pity that Taketo Kubo has made it clear that he will no longer draw long-form comics of the bloody type like the Grim Reaper, and will only try to create short-story casual comics in the future.

Knowing Kubo Takeren's will, even Horiuchi Marue, the president of Shueisha, chose to respect him.

Taketo Kubo has now become one of the heroes of the manga world, and with the pen in his hand, the other party has supported Shueisha's glory for more than ten years. It can be said that he has made a huge contribution to Shueisha.

In fact, when Shinigami was serialized to the later stage, Shueisha replaced the contract of Kubo Dairen with the same contract as Togashi Yoshihiro, which is also Shueisha's respect for Kubo Dairen.

Horiuchi Marue glanced at everyone and said, "Well, do you have any questions you want to ask? If not, this meeting will be dissolved."

The meeting room was quiet, Horiuchi Marue nodded upon seeing this, got up from his seat and walked out slowly.

……

Shuji Matsumoto returned to his office immediately after the meeting, picked up his cell phone and dialed a number.

After a while of ringing, the phone was successfully dialed. Even though Shuji Matsumoto heard the sound of mahjong through the phone, his face became serious, and he sincerely asked to the other end of the phone: "Mr. On behalf of Shueisha, I have something important to ask of you, please!"

Straight to the point, without a trace of procrastination, Shuji Matsumoto is already begging the other party with a low profile at this time.

After a while, Shuji Matsumoto still didn't hear the other party's reply, but the phone still showed connected status, and at the same time, there was no sound related to mahjong on the other end of the phone, only the familiar sound of smoking.

He waited patiently for Yoshihiro Tomikin's reply. Even though the two parties were separated by phone and couldn't see each other's expressions, Shuji Matsumoto still had a very serious expression on his face.
