Global Tycoon: You Call This A Small Achievement?

Shueisha.

Editor-in-Chief Ichiro Sakata got the sales data of the past week and was furious: "Who can tell me why the sales of our comic magazine suddenly and gradually declined in the past week? What went wrong!"

Seeing the group of people sitting down with their heads bowed and kneeling, Ichiro Sakata became even more angry, "Creation Department, Market Research Department, don't you have anything to say?"

Facts have proved that, as a large comic book club in the island country, Shueisha discovered something fishy earlier than expected.

Kawashima Eiko is the editor-in-chief of the creative department. After being named, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "We have always paid attention to letters from readers, which often contain a considerable amount of feedback and suggestions, but I have personally reviewed them in the past few days. The letter contains no accusations about the plot, the decline in the quality of the work, etc..."

The pressure immediately came to the market research department. As the department manager, Inoue Haruki hesitated and said: "We did discover the decline in comic sales at the first time, but initially judged it to be a cyclical decline. In this matter, we It's not professional enough to admit that you made a mistake."

Seeing that he was about to be reprimanded again, Inoue Haruki hurriedly said: "However, through my personal connections, I have communicated with colleagues from several other large comic companies and found that their comic sales are also declining, and the magnitude of the decline is even greater. Better than us!"

"The sales of several other large comics companies are also declining?" Ichiro Sakata said in surprise, ignoring his anger.

Others were also very surprised. This abnormal phenomenon had never appeared before.

Just like the law of conservation of energy, since sales will not disappear for no reason, then there must have been a transfer.

"Is there another medium-sized comic publishing house on the market that has emerged and became an instant hit with a certain work?"

Ichiro Sakata subconsciously adjusted the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, and the sharp gaze in his eyes flashed away, "If this is the case, it would be easy to handle..."

The simplest, crudest, and most effective method is to throw money.

As one of the top comics companies in the island country, Shueisha has the capital and the confidence!

He's just a lucky guy. Put colorful bills in front of him, and he doesn't believe that the other party won't be interested. If it still doesn't work, then add more money!

A popular work will have limited commercial benefits in the hands of the other party. However, in the hands of Shueisha, with Shueisha's resources and channels, it can achieve dozens of times the effect and create a second-level hit.

If after adding money you still don’t understand, are not satisfied, and have unsatisfied desires, Shueisha will find many ways to make the other party suffer. There are hundreds of comics companies in the entire island country, and they all act based on the faces of a few top comics companies!

"No, it's a comic company from Hong Kong!"

Inoue Haruki interrupted the other party's soliloquy.

"Hong Kong comic?"

Ichiro Sakata was startled, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and blurted out: "Is it that "Kowloon Comics"?"

Almost immediately, he thought of this Hong Kong comic that was being advertised and promoted like crazy in recent days. He thought it was nothing to fear, but he didn’t expect that he was careless and didn’t dodge, and was sneak attacked by the opponent who didn’t follow martial arts! Sneak attack It’s Shueisha, one of the three top manga agencies in the island country!

"Yes, this is the comic!"

"Judging from the various news we have learned, this comic seems to be completely different from the Hong Kong comics we have known in the past. It has the shadow of orthodox island country comics, and readers rate it very highly!

"Since they have not released sales data, we don't know the specific situation..."

Hearing this, Ichiro Sakata frowned and said calmly: "Immediately ask someone to bring me a copy of "Qiu Long Comics".

After the meeting.

Ichiro Sakata locked himself in his office. The sunlight filtered through the glass windows and sky-blue curtains. Occasionally, a few spots of light fell on him, but the overall tone was still dominated by gloom.

*"Kowloon Comics"..." Ichiro Sakata murmured in a low voice. As the nominal head of Shueisha, how could he not see the amazing potential of these works of Kowloon Comics Company!

However, the deeper you look, the more shocking it becomes.

He placed "Kowloon Comics" next to the comic magazines produced by his own Shueisha, and couldn't help but feel a little downcast.

How can you be bright when you are born with beauty!

I'm afraid of comparison in everything. Compared with the several comics of "Kowloon Comics", several of Shueisha's works are just a piece of shit!

Forgive him for being so honest....

"How to do how to do?"

Ichiro Sakata brushed the few hairs left on his forehead. Hair loss has always been the biggest problem that troubled him, especially when he goes shopping with young and beautiful girls, he is always misunderstood as her grandparents [However, at this moment But he didn't have the heart to care about this.

...Please give me flowers...

Suddenly, an idea appeared in his mind and quickly took root!

"Maybe, you can try..."

His voice gradually weakened, but his sharp eyes were like two dancing flames, becoming hot and crazy.

Once exposed, Shueisha and Shueisha will be in a desperate situation.

But, what if it succeeds?

A poor boy from a "remote countryside" knows what intellectual property is?

When the time comes, Shueisha can take the lead, beat the enemy, and force the other party to leave the island country’s animation industry with a stain on it.

Just as "Kowloon Comics" was killing people in the island country and quickly becoming popular, Oriental Newspaper Company finally made a decision on the name of the new newspaper, and named it "Global Times".

There is no doubt that this is a benchmark against "Ming Pao", but it is a global newspaper that focuses on news and people's livelihood. Once successful, it will effectively supplement the shortcomings of Oriental Media Group and gain the second heavyweight newspaper.

"Are you sure you're ready?" He Zhou confirmed again and again.

Liu Yiyi concentrated and said: "We have initially gained some confidence. I believe that Global Times has such a solid foundation and it will not be difficult to get a good start.

He Zhou took off the cap of his pen, scrawled his signature on the document, and finally threw the document back and inquired about the specific progress of Oriental News Agency.

"We have set up offices in mainstream countries in the free world, and it is not difficult to obtain first-hand information resources. The problem now lies in the Gulf region, where information is relatively opaque. In addition, there are Soviet allies, and we can only obtain public information from them. The content is intercepted from the information and it is impossible to tell whether it is true or false.”

Liu Yiyi said calmly: "Our Eastern Communications Agency has been established for some time. Although it is far from perfect, it already has a framework and is decent. My idea is to try it first and feel the stones. river.

It doesn't matter if you make mistakes, it's better than standing still. "

He Zhou sat slightly, with a slight curve in the corner of his mouth, "This idea is right, try it first, and be bold in exploring it!"
