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

Chapter 206: Cartoonists Association Appreciation Conference

"Moshimoshi, ah, Shogakukan... Sorry, it's a great honor to meet you. But if you don't mind, please contact my editor, Saburo Mikami, because I'm too busy with my manuscripts. Yes, it's the director of the web department of Qun-Ei-Sha. I'm very sorry, please contact me more often, contact me more often."

This is the third call that Oda Shingo hung up.

The high pace of the new episodes of "Parasyte" has kept the previous public opinion heat steady.

Qun-Ei-Sha's performance is improving, Oda Shingo has become a hot celebrity, and many brother comics companies are beginning to be jealous.

Oda Shingo received some calls for this.

"Teacher Oda is too popular now." Fujido Kao said beside him.

"Focus on your work and learn from Namikaze Yukaku." Oda Shingo glared at her.

Fujido Kao pouted: "Huh, in your eyes, Yukaku is the most obedient, right?"

"Yes, I like obedient people." Oda Shingo ignored her.

Fujido Kao pouted. Namikaze Yuzuru, who was painting without looking back, quietly smiled.

Then, Oda Shingo operated his mobile phone.

He was really too busy, so he planned to change the mode to no reminder for non-contacts.

The update volume of 150 pages per issue means that more than 20 pages of manuscripts must be completed every day, which is simply terrifying for ordinary cartoonists.

Even if Oda Shingo has the system acceleration and the speed of copying the original work in his mind to support it, it is still a very hard workload.

But then another call came.

Since he hadn't put down the phone yet, he picked it up: "Moshimoshi, eh? Springfield Bookstore?"

Oda Shingo was stunned and looked at Mrs. Yukino who was reviewing the manuscript not far away.

Mrs. Yukino glanced at him, but didn't respond.

"Ah, editor of Springfield Bookstore, hello, hello, if you are free, please add my line. My line number is Sunday Demon King..."

After hanging up the phone quickly, Oda Shingo smiled at Mrs. Yukino: "How is it, I am very polite to your people, right? I returned the line."

"..." Mrs. Yukino rolled her eyes and said, "I didn't ask anyone to contact you."

"Ah?" Oda Shingo was stunned.

Mrs. Yukino said in a light tone: "You are not a freshly baked Waseda wagashi, why should I ask someone to contact you so early?"

She heard what Oda Shingo said just now that he likes obedient girls.

"Hey, hey..." Oda Shingo wanted to say, am I so worthless?

Mrs. Yukino looked at the manuscript, but asked softly: "If I don't ask someone to come and win you over in advance, will you really not go to Springfield Bookstore?"

"If I am really kicked out of Qun Yingshe, will you not send someone to win me over?"

It was quiet for a while.

Oda Shingo smirked in his heart. It seems that Mrs. Yukino doesn't know how to fight with magic.

But a few seconds later, Mrs. Yukino smiled at him: "I don't believe that after leaving Qunyingshe, you will choose another comics club."

Her smile was still so beautiful and full of confidence.

But at the same time, Mrs. Yukino rarely blinked at Oda Shingo.

Oda Shingo was stunned, and soon his mood improved.

I understand very well. Seeing such a beautiful woman smiling at me, anyone would want to follow her. Not to mention that the other party treats me really well.

Heroes are hard to resist beautiful women, and I am a hero.

"By the way, why is Mr. Oda's line number called the Sunday Demon King?" Fujido Kao suddenly asked during the meal.

According to Japanese customs, many traditional beauties do not talk when eating. Even if they speak, they have to put down their bowls and chopsticks, such as Mrs. Yukino.

Fujido Kao always chatters when eating because she follows her father's words.

This often makes the four people have topics at the dinner table.

Before Oda Shingo could answer, Namikaze Yukaku said, "Is it transformed from Oda Nobunaga's Sixth Heavenly Demon King?"

Namikaze Yukaku often stared at Oda Shingo's line number in a daze, but was too embarrassed to send a message.

Sunday is the seventh day of the week, so she thought about this question.

"Almost." Oda Shingo smiled.

In fact, this line number name already existed in the previous life.

It was just that he was quietly called the Sunday Demon King at that time, and Oda Shingo also found out by chance because he often had to work overtime on Sundays.

On the third day, the results of the popularity vote came out.

The popularity votes of "Parasyte" still ranked first, more than twice that of the third place "notouch".

The performance level of "notouch" is declining, perhaps the author Andachi Yutaka is trying to change to win over the fans and want to surpass Oda Shingo.

But new explorations often mean high risks, and instead lost the favor of some fans and fell to third place.

In the new week, the new issue of "jump" was released.

Early in the morning, people had already lined up in front of the bookstore.

The shop owner opened the door confidently: "Fortunately, I prepared "Jump" in advance, and there is a convenient purchase channel here! Ah, everyone is buying "Jump", right?"

The fans rushed in, each holding a copy and started to check out.

Then they bought drinks and sat on chairs.

There were not enough chairs, so they sat directly on the protruding edge of the French window and used it as a seat.

The shop owner was no longer surprised.

On that day, the sales of "Jump" reached a new level!

The subscription of the electronic version of the website exceeded 250,000 in 24 hours! The background shows that 92% of the fans read "Parasyte" first after subscribing!

And 28% of the fans read the page repeatedly!

Statistics show that the total online reading time of comic fans for "Parasyte" accounts for 64% of the total reading time of the whole book!

"Jump" generally has more than 470 pages.

Since "Parasyte" occupies a large serial of 150 pages, the recent issues of "Jump" have exceeded 500 pages.

Especially these two issues have reached 650 pages of special printing pages!

But Parasyte occupies more than half of the time with less than a quarter of the amount!

The influence of this comic can be said to have reached a terrifying level.

After receiving the statistical table, Vice President Xiaoshan took a few glances, crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the trash can.

The old president smiled, and shook his head with a little regret: "If "Parasyte" did not contain bloody elements, I am afraid it would have been a national-level comic."

Oda Shingo Studio.

Dinglingling, Oda Shingo's mobile phone rang.

It was a call from Mikami Saburo: [Shingo, did you receive a phone invitation from the Cartoonists Association's Appreciation Conference? ]

"Oh? I don't answer calls from strangers recently. I'm too busy recently. By the way, I won't go to this appreciation meeting. I'd rather draw comics in the studio with that half a day."

[Strange, I didn't receive a phone invitation either, but Okita received both your and my personal invitations. ]

"What?" Oda Shingo heard a hint of worry in his words.

[In previous years, they would call to invite and thank us first, but this year they just sent the invitation letter. ]

"..." Oda Shingo smacked his lips, "You mean, they don't value us? Or, don't want us to go?"

[Yes, the latter is more likely. After all, I'm still the web director of Qunyingsha. ]

"Vice President Koyama's hand has reached the Cartoonists Association?"

[In fact, everyone knows that there will be some problems in the selection. But the Cartoonists Association has frequently encountered objections to the selection in recent years, and many people in the industry also think there are big problems. ]

Oda Shingo snorted: "I didn't want to go, but if that's the case, I have to go and see!"
