Although it seems that the sales volume should be related to the cartoonist and has nothing to do with the editor, it is actually not the case.

Manga sales also represent the performance of editors, especially in an industry-leading editorial department like Shueisha, there is never a shortage of excellent editors.

If an editor's performance is poor, he will undoubtedly be transferred to other branches of Shueisha, and may even face the crisis of being fired, because to a large extent, the editor and the cartoonist themselves are the two. Both of them have an inseparable relationship with comics.

Why does every cartoonist have a dedicated editor?It is to let the editor go to the cartoonist to work hard and discuss the next content with the cartoonist!

It can be said that both are prosperous and both are prosperous, and both are lost.

If the manga artist’s manga quality is not good, then what awaits the manga artist is that the work will be cut in half, and the editor in charge of his work will deduct points from the impression of the leader. was transferred to other divisions.

Relatively speaking, if the editors of other branches perform well, they will be transferred from the branch to Shueisha. Ayano Iida is a good example. He performed well in the original branch and was quickly transferred to Shueisha as an editor. Department, and achieved the position of editor-in-chief all the way.

Horiuchi Marue turned to look at Ibaraki Masahiko and Iida Ayano next to him, with a slight smile on his face, and said: "There is another piece of good news related to Iida editor-in-chief and Ibaraki editor-in-chief, I think everyone knows "Jump SQ", which was serialized on the 5.00th of this month, has sold [-]%! It is five times the usual "Jump SQ", let us give the two of you the warmest applause!!"

Clap clap clap——! ! !

As soon as the words were finished, Horiuchi Marue applauded first, and the rest of the editors present also applauded without hesitation. As the parties, Ayano Iida and Masahiko Ibaraki bowed to everyone with a smile.

Masahiko Ibaraki is really happy. Since he voluntarily left Shueisha’s weekly magazine jump and transferred the editor-in-chief of Shueisha, Masahiko Ibaraki has devoted himself to being the editor-in-chief of "Jump SQ", and "Jump SQ" is in his hands The popularity is also much better than before.

At least many comic fans know that the [-]th of every month is the day when "Jump SQ" is serialized.

There are many themes serialized in "Jump SQ", and there are also good-quality comics, but the sales volume has always been at the upper-middle level. The sales volume has increased by five times, and the results are not unreasonable. It almost caught up with the weekly jump. Hunter, and the weekly jump itself is the best-selling comic magazine in neon.

Being able to catch up with this sales volume, one can imagine how terrifying the sales volume of "Jump SQ" this week is.

In fact, the sales of "Jump SQ" on the [-]th of this month were so hot that it was completely beyond Ibaraki Masahiko's expectations, and even all the editors present did not expect that many Shueisha editors regretted it.

It is precisely because of this terrifying sales volume and the demand of the vast number of comic fans that Masahiko Ibaraki contacted the printing house to publish several batches of follow-up "Jump SQ" for sale.

The reason why "Jump SQ" was able to sell so well is what everyone guessed. It can be said that most of the people who bought this issue of "Jump SQ" went for the [-] Centimeters per Second manga version. exaggerate!

Moreover, the age distribution of readers who buy is also very exaggerated, ranging from elementary school students to seniors aged 70 to [-], all of whom want to read [-] Centimeters per Second manga.

As soon as this comic appeared, it attracted a lot of attention. Not only in Neon, but also in China and America, everyone knew about this comic adapted from a novel.

The magnificent, dreamlike and beautiful painting style, coupled with the suffocating and melancholy plot, the manga version of [-] Centimeters per Second is currently in the industry. Everyone has almost forgotten that this is a manga. Make it a work of art! !

It can be said that the storm of the second five manga version has spread to the world. These days, the sales volume of "Jump SQ" in China, the United States and other regions can be regarded as several times that of Neon. This is also the reason why Shueisha did not expand the foreign market well. It can also be doubled.

The foreign market is more than ten times or even dozens of times that of Neon, but it is difficult to break through. Even Shueisha can only develop a small part, but this small part of overseas sales is already several times that of Neon. doubled! !

However, there are two creators of this work, one is the original author of Second Five, Mr. Shenzhu, and the other is Mr. Shiina Mashiro who painted Second Five by himself. Why Second Five is regarded as a manga like a work of art has a lot to do with it. Both are related to the name Shiina Mashiro.

In fact, on the day when Second Five went on sale, Shiina Mashiro's name had already ranked first in the world in terms of searches!

People who knew Shiina Mashiro from the beginning naturally sighed, and some people who knew about Mashiro for the first time already regarded her as a goddess. The beauty of Sec. After reading the previous works, I realized that the beauty is not only the works, she is like an elf who came out of nature! !

Chapter 320 The editorial department full of discussions

"Editor-in-Chief Iida, please focus on cultivating the storytelling ability of Mr. Shiina Mashiro. I believe everyone has seen the potential of Mr. Shiina Mashiro."

Horiuchi Marue looked at Iida Ayano, and without waiting for the other party to answer, he continued to say indifferently: "To be honest, Shiina Mashiro's grades this time are completely beyond my imagination, and of course I will not ask Iida The editor-in-chief trained Shiina Mashiro to be like Kazu-sensei, because that is too difficult for others, after all, such a genius as Kazu-sensei is too rare.

And everyone knows the storytelling ability of Shiina Mashiro, so I just hope that editor-in-chief Iida can cultivate Shiina Mashiro's story-telling ability to an ordinary level. I hope that editor-in-chief Iida can do this! "

In fact, everyone present knows that the reason why the [-] Centimeters per Second manga version is as popular as it is now is because of Shiina Mashiro's paintings, but the most fundamental part is still inseparable from the divine master.

The most important thing in comics is the plot, followed by the style of painting.

They have all seen Shiina Mashiro's submissions before, and the style of painting is the same as the current [-] Centimeters per Second manga version, so people can't find anything to criticize, but the plot is so blank that people want to go crazy after reading it, it can be said that it is not at all There is no such thing as a plot!

No matter how good the painting style is, as long as there is no plot, it is still rubbish!

Because this is a comic, it is a common reading material for people to watch, and it is used to satirize or praise life or current events, etc. In layman's terms, it is to show the story that the creator wants to tell through painting, which is comics.

If there is no plot, it is just drawing some pictures, which is not considered a comic at all. Even if these pictures are beautifully drawn, they are still useless. At best, they are just good-looking pictures.

Editors will not agree, and readers will not buy it.

In fact, before this, everyone just had some expectations for Shiina Mashiro, because the other party's storytelling ability is so poor that people can't complain, and the expectations in their hearts are only for the name of a world-class talented painter.

Now that the sales of the second five manga version, they have to face up to this issue again. Even if they know that the popularity of the second five manga version is largely related to the plot, it still doesn't hinder the enthusiasm of the editors.

Hearing Horiuchi Maruei's request, how dare Iida Ayano refuse to agree?After all, it is still in the meeting, and the other party is the president of the entire Shueisha, so it can be said that he is the immediate boss of everyone present.

Besides, even without the reminder from Horiuchi Marue, Iida Ayano has been teaching Mashiro how to tell stories recently. After she came to the editorial department of Shueisha as the editor-in-chief, there were only two manga artists in charge of her.

One doesn't need her to worry about at all, and the other breaks her heart.

But now it seems that she doesn't need to worry about that one, but it breaks the heart of the entire editorial department.

Thinking of this, Iida Ayano secretly smiled in her heart, but on the surface she replied seriously to Horiuchi Marue, "Please rest assured, Mr. President, besides me, Mr. Kamito is also helping to cultivate Shiina Mashiro's storytelling ability. It might be a bit long, but overall it shouldn't be a big problem."

The deputy editor-in-chief of Beiyuan hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but said in a low voice: "I think how about letting Second Five be serialized in the weekly jump next time? This can alleviate the crisis of sales, and can further improve the reputation, and even It can buy more time for Weekly Jump to find better comics for serialization, it’s killing three birds with one stone!”

"It's true that this method is good. Mr. Tomihiro Yoshihiro can only delay it for a while. It will be no problem if it is topped by Second Five, and the time left for our editorial department will be longer. I agree with this plan!"

"That's right, as long as you have time, everything will be fine."

Hearing the naked discussion around him, Masahiko Ibaraki, who was smiling like a flower on his face and planned to be a spectator today, finally couldn't sit still, and quickly stared, reached out and slapped the table unreasonably , "No! Second Five's comic version has already been serialized on "Jump SQ", so it is impossible to suddenly switch to another comic magazine to serialize now? And even if Second Five is serialized on Weekly Jump, I think it will only let others Look at the joke, I believe the headquarters will not sit idly by!"

At the end, Masahiko Ibaraki finally couldn't bear to add a sentence at the end, mentioning the headquarters, the faces of the editors who were talking and talking just now became gloomy.

And indeed, as Ibaraki Masahiko said, when this kind of thing happens, the headquarters will definitely take care of it, and then it will lose face, and the most important thing is that Shueisha's reputation will also lose a large part.

Even if "Jump SQ" is also under the banner of Shueisha, but the second five manga version that is being serialized on "Jump SQ" is suddenly serialized on the weekly jump magazine, what's the matter?Isn't it for Kodansha, Shogakukan and the majority of comic fans to see jokes? !
