Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?

Why...didn't anyone ask me if I agreed? !

Oda Shingo's words vaguely echoed in the large conference room.

Everyone in the audience stared at him silently with their eyes widened.

[Writing this, I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network→𝒕𝒘𝒌𝒂𝒏.𝒄𝒐𝒎]

No, is there such a person?

In this day and age, are there still people who are so ignorant?

You are just a bad cartoonist, and you still let the middle and senior management of the comics agency ask you for your opinion?

"Ahem, Oda-kun, I'm sorry." The old president coughed lightly and said slowly, and actually gave Oda Shingo a step down, "I was just about to ask you what you think, but I was interrupted and got off topic. Quick. Come and have a listen, I’m interested in your opinion.”

Mikami Saburo breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe it was because he kept exaggerating about Oda Shingo in front of the old president these days, which made him feel pity for talents, so that he could give him a step forward, right?

If someone were to replace him, he would probably be kicked out.

Mikami Saburo knew that the average senior company executive would never give the people below him a chance to speak like this.

They have long been accustomed to staying in high positions. They always look at people from top to bottom and are too lazy to listen to what sounds you will make.

Those so-called comic writers just work with pens and paper. In their eyes, they are no different from oxen and horses pulling carts!

Mikami Saburo quickly winked at Oda Shingo, hoping that he would restrain himself.

But Oda Shingo didn't even look at him. He used the old president's words and loudly said: "As for the serialization of "Parasite Beast" in "Jump", as a manga author, I have a prerequisite that I cannot give in to!"

condition?

Does the comic author make conditions?

Isn’t that something that a great comic book writer would have to think over and over before saying something politely?

Everyone present was stunned.

Please, this is the Heroes Club! The conference room of the biggest giant in the comics market!

When did it become your turn as a newcomer to make demands?

Saburo Mikami's expression changed drastically, he looked at Oda Shingo anxiously, and gently moved his fingers left and right as a hint.

Oda Shingo turned a blind eye, keeping his chin slightly raised and his body straight without bending, and said loudly:

"How you reach an agreement is beyond my control. But no matter who is the editor or editor-in-chief, or the director of this magazine..."

His eyes were sharp and he stared at the top management of Qunying Society without giving in.

"My "Parasite Beast" comic manuscript will never be allowed to be changed at all!"

Changes not allowed?

Someone burst into laughter.

"hehe."

"Hehehehe."

"He said no changes are allowed? So what else do you need to do with editing and review?"

"Hahahahahaha!"

The laughter grew louder.

The old president, Fukada Sadzen, leaned back and said nothing.

"Oda-kun, what do you seem to be trying to imply?" Vice President Koyama's mouth curved and he looked at Oda Shingo sarcastically.

"No, I'm not hinting, I'm saying it clearly." Oda Shingo's chin was the same, and the corners of his mouth also curved, "Don't talk about the reinstatement of the former head of Hyakki Hayato, even if he is not reinstated, I believe that "Parasite Beast" will be in this magazine He will also be made things difficult for him in all kinds of ways!”

These words were loud and clear, and the words "former minister" were said very strongly, which directly made things clear in everyone's hearts.

Many of the middle and senior management are editors, so they naturally understand how many methods the official publication department, as Party A, can use to get authors to revise manuscripts.

You submit the manuscript? Hum hum, let you know what Party A’s father is!

Seven or eight changes are considered few, ten times or twenty times! Change it until you have a nervous breakdown!

No matter what finishing words you write, you have to change them! Change it until you are at a loss for words!

What wonderful close-ups did you draw? No, you have to change them! Change it until you run out of inspiration!

Almost everyone present knew that this was definitely a place where the main magazine department controlled by Hyakki Hayato would make things difficult for Oda Shingo.

Oda Shingo has a tough attitude: "So I am honored to be included in the official issue of "Jump"! But whatever I publish must be how it is published!"

What's up? I know you will make things difficult for my work! But I insist that you not change it! Let me publish it in the official publication, so don’t change it!

Vice President Xiaoshan chuckled: "Oh? Are you implying that our magazine will make things difficult for you?"

Oda Shingo snorted: "With Mr. Koyama's experience and understanding of the former Minister of Hyakki, do you still need me to answer?"

No one spoke, they just looked at Oda Shingo.

They know the answer.

But no one will speak for a newcomer.

Saburo Mikami clenched his fists tightly, wishing to pull out Oda Shingo.

He felt that Oda Shingo was cutting off his career as a writer!

Laoyoutiao Vice President Koyama did not respond to Oda Shingo and immediately changed the subject: "You mean, if the magazine department has objections to your submission, you will not publish it?"

Oda Shingo has also been around, so how could he not hear the verbal trap set by the other party: "Deputy Minister Koyama, please don't misunderstand me. I am willing to listen to friendly opinions, but I will not accept forced changes."

This also means the subtext: Must it be changed? I won't go!

Everyone can hear that Oda's token is resolute and he is not allowed to make things difficult for me when I publish it, otherwise, I will reprint it!

But these words are really forbidden words, and no one with any sense can say them clearly, as long as everyone knows what they mean.

The old president, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly leaned forward and said, "Oda-kun, your request may be met. But anyone who makes a request should have the confidence to do so."

What he meant was, what results can be achieved if your work is published in this magazine?

Vice President Koyama looked at the old president in surprise.

How long has it been since I saw this old man express his support so directly?

In the past, he always slickly adjusted various internal conflicts. This seemed to be the first time in a long time that he clearly supported him.

In response to the old president's question, Oda Shingo did not answer the question immediately. He looked at Mikami Saburo and saw that he looked anxious and scratched his head.

"Mr. Fukada, how many pages can you give me per issue at most?"

The old president's eyes were sharp: "30 pages!"

The people around him were stunned. 30 pages?

Most cartoonists can only draw a dozen or twenty pages per issue, right?

Oda Shingo waved his hand and said, "I want 40 pages! Within two months of publication, the reader popularity will be in the top three!"

40 pages? Are you crazy? Who can draw 40 pages a week!

Top three? Don't be ridiculous, how can the quality be guaranteed with so many updated pages?

"Let's not talk about the top three popularity, "Jump" needs weekly updates, can you draw 40 pages?" The old president couldn't believe it.

Although he had heard from Mikami Saburo that Oda Shingo was very fast, he didn't expect it to be so fast.

"Others can't, but I can!"

Many people at the scene grinned, this guy was too arrogant.

"Good! Young and promising! I think such young talents should be supported!" The vice president suddenly laughed, "I will support you for another 10 pages! Give you 50 pages per issue!"

Everyone present looked at the vice president, then at the old president, and finally focused their attention on Oda Shingo.

Although Oda Shingo seemed to be boasting, he actually had his own calculations in his mind and didn't answer for a while.

Vice President Koyama's face was full of fat, and he made a mocking sound: "Why, you can't take 10 more pages?"

"I'm afraid I've drawn too much and you can't afford it!" Oda Shingo glared, "50 pages! Get the top three popularity in two months!"

Crazy! This new guy is crazy! He doesn't know how high the sky is!

Almost everyone at the scene was covering their heads and exclaiming!

Update 50 pages of comics every week? !

Vice President Koyama's expression was ferocious: "What if you don't submit enough manuscripts, or the popularity ranking can't be achieved?"

"What if I can do it?" Oda Shingo's neck stiffened.

Vice President Koyama glanced at Oda Shingo's cheap leather shoes and casually said: "The loser will polish the other party's shoes in public!"

"It's a deal!" Oda Shingo's eyes were sharp.

Vice President Koyama snorted: "It's a deal!"

After speaking, Oda Shingo didn't bow, but just nodded slightly in the direction of the old president and Mikami Saburo.

Then, he turned around and walked out the door, leaving behind a sentence that seemed to have a powerful impact...

"I will give you a tip!"
