God Descends the Second Dimension

Over the years, it is precisely because of the appearance of "Bleach" that Shueisha has broken the stalemate balance. From the tripartite confrontation to the current champion, it has leapfrogged Shogakukan and Kodansha, and the leading position has been firmly seated until now. It can be said that "Death" contributed a lot.

And besides "Reaper", Shueisha has another work that is not weaker than it at all, and that is "Hunter x Hunter" created by Yoshihiro Togashi!

In the beginning, the manga "Hunter x Hunter" was even more eye-catching than "Reaper". Unfortunately, Yoshihiro Togashi's updates are pitiful, and there are endless reasons for asking for leave, and sometimes I don't even bother to think of reasons Yes, it's typical to drag the manuscript for the sake of delaying the manuscript, or to say that it is delaying the manuscript for playing mahjong?

Although the latter is more likely at present, the majority of manga fans and editors at Shueisha have nothing to do with him.

Chapter 190 Hard work is useful, why do you need a genius?

If Yoshihiro Togashi had been willing to serialize "Hunter x Hunter" in the first place, Shueisha would now have two phenomenal comics serialized on the weekly jump, and there would not be the current fault state after the end of "Reaper".

Shueisha will not take a huge risk to carry out the Dragon Ball God-making project, and will devote all its resources to this amazing manga at the beginning.

But because of its authorship, "Hunter x Hunter" cannot be regarded as a phenomenon-level manga. If one day Fu Jianyi Boken comes back to serialize honestly, everything will be the same again, but...is it possible?

To put it bluntly, the importance of a phenomenon-level manga to a manga publishing house is self-evident, and it may even undergo a change that will reshuffle the industry, because after the end of Bleach, no phenomenon-level manga has been born yet!

If either Shogakukan or Kodansha produces phenomenal comics, it will undoubtedly take away Shueisha's leading position.

Maybe someone will ask at this time, is it a bit too exaggerated to be able to determine the leading position in the industry by relying on a so-called phenomenal manga?

In fact, this is not an exaggeration at all. People who know the current industry know it well, especially the editors of the three major comic book industry. They only need to make an easy analogy to make people understand. Take the current book that almost became a phenomenon-level comic book. For a full-time hunter.

When Bleach was still serializing in the past, whenever Yoshihiro Togashi picked up the pen and continued to serialize Hunter, the sales of the current weekly jump would increase by 30%, not to mention the weekly shonen jump with Bleach serialized. At that time, the sales volume opened up the other two. This shows how terrifying the influence of a phenomenon-level comic is.

"Well, if Dragon Ball can continue to maintain this kind of performance for two months, no, it only needs to continue for one month, then we can consider the number one position at that time."

Editor-in-Chief Matsumoto squinted his eyes and spoke lightly. What he said immediately surprised all the editors present. They looked at each other in disbelief, and finally turned their gazes to Editor-in-Chief Matsumoto who was sitting in the center.

At this time, everyone felt that this usually prudent editor-in-chief was acting too rashly now!

"Editor-in-chief Matsumoto, isn't it a bit too rash to let Dragon Ball take the first place? After all, it is a work that has just been serialized..."

Even Iida Ayano, who is in charge of Dragon Ball, couldn't help but be surprised when she heard what Matsumoto said. Although she also decided in her heart that if Dragon Ball continued like this, it was only a matter of time before she became the number one.

But now this time has actually been brought forward. It only needs to keep Dragon Ball at this level for a month, and it will be able to ascend to the first place in the draft.

You know, logically, this position should be handed over to the second-ranked work. Even the god of death only sat on the throne of the first-ranked work when it was serialized to about 30 episodes back then. Unshakable.

Although the Grim Reaper is now over and this position has been vacated, according to common sense, it should be for the second place to sit on it for a few months. After all, Dragon Ball has only serialized three episodes now. According to the normal serialization speed, there will be five episodes in a month. The words are good, and it will take at least two or three months to sit on it.

Moreover, at the beginning of the serialization of Dragon Ball, that is, not long after the end of Shinigami, after everyone considered many factors at that time, the editorial department decided to give Dragon Ball the right to be the first in the list, and the next issue should be regarded as the second in the list. Right, but it won't be done in the next issue.

Frontispieces are generally given to special occasions such as new serials, publicity, and anniversary festivals. Generally, the frontispiece color pages are the works that rank first. In fact, the first ranks start from the second, but the number of frontiers is also popular High proof.

In other words, Dragon Ball has already used the privilege of being the first in the ranking twice. It must be clear that this is a work that has just been serialized. Even Shinigami only enjoyed this benefit once when it was serialized before. .

"I won't mention this for now. If something happens to Dragon Ball midway, I will naturally not consider the matter of being number one."

Editor-in-Chief Matsumoto waved his hand. The number one position is not so easy to sit on. According to the normal process, although Dragon Ball won the overall first place, it is still hovering at the second and third positions at most.

However, since Shueisha has decided on the Dragon Ball god-making plan, it is natural to divert resources to Dragon Ball, but it will not be too much. After all, if the quality of Dragon Ball is not good enough, but still sits on the throne of the number one, then it can be said that Shueisha has already It's over.

Editor-in-Chief Matsumoto felt that his treatment of Dragon Ball was good enough, and all that remained was to see if the young teacher, the master, could continue the glory of Dragon Ball.

If it doesn't work, they will naturally consider cutting Dragon Ball in half, even the god of death can't avoid this ending.

"It is undeniable that the current results of Dragon Ball are indeed terrifying, but it may be difficult to maintain it for a month. After all, Teacher Shenzhu is only 16 years old. If he succeeds, another master will be born in the comics world..."

Junichi Ishimoto said with a little concern that he has worked at Shueisha for almost ten years, and now he is the editor-in-chief, and he is currently one of the most promising candidates to be the editor-in-chief.

I have also seen Shinigami's glorious moment, so I naturally know what the results of Dragon Ball represent. At this critical moment, I still chose the side of justice, even though Shenzhu is not the manga artist he is in charge of.

"A 16-year-old genius manga artist is already surprising. If Teacher Shenzhu can become a manga master at this age, it would be amazing to think about it..."

The deputy editor-in-chief of Beiyuan sighed lightly. What is the concept of a 16-year-old manga master?

It is absolutely unprecedented, and there will be no one in the future.

We must know that normal cartoonists may not be eligible to serialize their works on the weekly jump magazine until they are in their 30s. It can be said that the comics industry is a very cruel place.

A person without talent can never surpass a talented person no matter how hard he tries. The most typical example is Yoshihiro Togashi. Although he fished for three days and posted on the net for two days, his works are better than those of those who work hard. The sales of cartoonists are many times better.

The existence of Yoshihiro Togashi seems to be laughing at those foolish cartoonists who are desperately trying to climb up, telling them that what this industry needs is not hard work, if hard work is useful, then why do we need geniuses?

It is precisely because of this reason that the enthusiasm of many cartoonists in the industry has gradually cooled down, because no matter how hard I try, I can’t surpass talented people, so I can only use another method to create according to their routines Works, this is also the most fundamental reason for the routine in the comics industry!

Chapter 190 Three Resource Allocation

"However, don't expect too much, but if Dragon Ball rises, then the current manga industry is destined to have a manga master who is only 16 years old, but all of this is based on the condition that Dragon Ball can continue to be brilliant. Down."

Editor-in-chief Matsumoto calmly analyzed that this temporarily cooled the excitement in everyone's hearts, but he had higher expectations for this Dragon Ball in his heart, because the one who is most looking forward to Dragon Ball now is not the editor present, but the editor who has already received the book. Enough of all kinds of comic friends with the same routine.

"By the way, there is actually one more thing I want to discuss with you. The manga version of [-] Centimeters per Second has come out. Would you like to take a look?"

The matter of Dragon Ball is a done deal, and Wang Hao can only rely on Wang Hao himself. It is useless for Ayano Iida to worry more, so he has to change the topic.

"Oh? Shiina Mashiro-sensei drew it so soon?"

The deputy editor-in-chief of Beiyuan frowned slightly. Maybe Wang Hao himself didn't know that most of Shueisha's editors had followed his Twitter. Naturally, they knew the news about the [-] Centimeters per Second manga version, and there would be newcomers that Shueisha would focus on. , Shiina Mashiro came to write.

It's just that it didn't take long for the news on Wang Hao's Twitter to spread, and he actually took action so quickly.

This not only aroused everyone's interest, Shiina Mashiro is a world-class talented painter, and the style of her works surprised everyone present last time. Unfortunately, the level of storytelling is a bit too poor, but this time there is no such problem.

"That's right, Mr. Shiina also helped Mr. Shiina to create this manga, so I will upload the [-] Centimeters per Second manga."

Iida Ayano nodded with a smile. She could already predict the surprise of the crowd, sat down again and turned on her computer, and released the document of the second five manga in the form of a slideshow on the screen in the middle. .
