Chapter 30 Serial Meeting
"咚咚-"

A knock came from outside the door, interrupting what Iida Ayano was about to say. We all know that she has a habit of not being interrupted when reviewing works.

Knocking on the door at this time, there must be something important, Iida Ayano said to the door, "Please come in."

"Senior Iida, it's almost time for the meeting..."

It was the waiter that Wang Hao saw just now who came in outside the door. After hearing what she said, Iida Ayano woke up, picked up Wang Hao's manuscript, and quickly left the office, leaving only a lingering sound.

"Who, please wait for me here first?"

But don't be late, why almost forgot that today is Monday, and the president has to come to the meeting in person! !
Unexpectedly, this editor-in-chief, who looks like a strong woman, has such a bold side, and almost forgot the time of the meeting, which is really interesting.

……

In the Weekly Shonen Jump meeting office, when Ayano Iida entered, everyone else was already in their positions. Although it wasn't time for the meeting yet, she felt embarrassed for being late.

"Since everyone is here, let's start the serialization meeting of this issue."

Shueisha Co., Ltd. is one of the largest publishing houses in Neon. The current president, Horiuchi Marue, sat in the middle and said lightly.

There were only a dozen or so people in the entire conference room, and they all looked serious and knew the importance of this meeting.

Including the editor-in-chief, deputy editor-in-chief, and many senior editors, the president Horiuchi Marue personally presided over the meeting.

This meeting will decide which comics will be cut in half next, as well as the serialization of new works, which will be determined based on the ranking of reader surveys.

All they have to do is to look for new works, discover potential newcomer cartoonists, and inject new blood into Shueisha. This is very important, and one accident will affect the reputation of Weekly Shonen Jump.

Therefore, this meeting is related to everyone present, and there must be no mistakes. It must be taken seriously.

"Long time no see, gentlemen."

As the president of Horiuchi Marue, although his hair is a little gray, he undoubtedly has a high prestige in Shueisha, and when he spoke, everyone present stood up and bowed.

"President Horiuchi!"

"Everyone sit down, the meeting will officially start next."

As soon as he spoke, the other talents slowly took their seats. Horiuchi Marue turned on the computer, and the projector behind him released a set of data. He continued solemnly: "After reading these data, I believe everyone also understands Shueisha's current situation. If this continues, our position will change."

Horiuchi Marue stood up, pointed out a set of data with his finger, and said loudly, "Yes, the sales of Weekly Shonen Jump have been gradually declining recently, while the other two have steadily increased!"

The editor who was present felt wrong from the very beginning, because every Monday meeting was held by Horiuchi Marue who asked others to report, but this meeting actually asked the president to investigate personally, which shows the seriousness of the situation.

"Everyone knows that it's not easy for us at Shueisha today. When we became independent from Shogakukan, we received a lot of blows, but through the continuous efforts of many seniors, we got to where we are today."

His falcon-like eyes looked around at the people present, and everyone he watched straightened up immediately, and the prestige of Horiuchi Marue came into play at this time.

"So I don't want the crystallization of the seniors to be destroyed in my hands, and I believe that everyone does not want such a thing to happen."

This meeting was like Horiuchi Marue's personal speech. At the moment when Shueisha's life and death were concerned, no one came out to refute him, all of them were thinking solemnly.

"I said this just to let you all understand the current situation. Next, I hope everyone can take the meeting seriously and report on the situation last week."

The rest of the editors understood the meaning of what Horiuchi Marue just said, in order to put more pressure on them to find excellent newcomer manga artists.

The reason why they are so anxious is not unreasonable, because the slash of "Reaper" has had too much influence on Shueisha, so what they need now is not ordinary comics, but the same phenomenal comics as "Reaper". , even a comic that goes beyond "Grim Reaper"! !
According to the current level of cartoonists at Shueisha, it is difficult for such works to appear, so we can only divert our attention to dig out newcomers.

They did not complain that Kubo led people to cut "Death" in half, because the other party has made great contributions to Shueisha and established the status of the leader in the comics industry.

Moreover, Kubo Taito also made it clear that if there is a new work, it will be serialized in Shueisha, but it does not necessarily have the potential to become a phenomenal manga.

The Kubo era in the manga world has come to an end, so Shueisha has to face a difficult situation. Other editors, through the words of Horiuchi Marue just now, know that this issue will obviously cut a few more manga in half.

Because the other two serialized "Inuyasha" and "Fairy Tail" have gradually become popular, Shueisha, which does not have "Reaper", has obviously begun to decline. The sales of the last issue still depended on its reputation, but it is still better than "Reaper" serialization. time has dropped a lot.

Continue to eat jujube pills like this, occupying the position of the leader of the global comic industry, it will be handed over, this is undoubtedly a great shame! !
Editor-in-chief Matsumoto turned on his computer, replaced the content on the projector, and displayed six comics.

"These six comics are determined to be cut in half. After the supervision of various departments, the final decision was made."

Looking at the cartoons on the projector, the atmosphere in the conference room became a little heavier. The results of one or two books on it were not bad. Since it was determined to be cut in half, then it should be the will of the cartoonist himself.

"Who are the rookie cartoonists worthy of training?"

The most crucial question of this meeting finally came. All the editors looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, and then all turned to Iida Ayano, who was the least senior.

"There are indeed two rookie cartoonists worthy of training, but I'm not too sure about one of them."

Iida Ayano said daringly, at this time, only she could bear the pressure. She took out a manuscript from her body, handed it to Horiuchi Marue, and turned on her computer to transfer a manuscript to the projector. superior.

When all the editors saw the content on the projector, they were shocked by the exquisite style of painting. How could such a perfect thing be a comic? !

It's so perfect, there is no flaw in the details, the delicate characters are almost equal, and the style of painting is absolutely magnificent, and people can't pick out a single fault.

The editors who have worked in the comics industry for many years are completely shocked. They have never seen a comic with such a style! !

ps: ask for a ticket, ask for a click, ask for a collection~
