God Descends the Second Dimension

But since they were able to come to the editorial department of Weekly Jump, it meant that these two had already gone through the formalities at the front desk, and that they were newcomers that other editors were looking for.

Shueisha's editorial work is usually very busy. Even the editor-in-chief and editor-in-chief don't often sit in the office. They all work in a large room, just like other company employees, with work positions lined up side by side. .

Only a special workbench is placed in the middle here, which is similar to the platform where the teacher taught in the classroom when he was in school. That position can be used to observe the work of each editor, and there is also a workbench on the side. workbench.

Sitting in the middle of the office is a middle-aged man in his 40s, wearing a pair of white metal glasses, with a little gray in his hair, and a very serious face.

Shuji Matsumoto, who was working, seemed to notice Wang Hao's gaze, raised his head slightly to look over, and nodded towards him, and Wang Hao quickly responded with a polite smile.

"You two are here!"

Iida Ayano also noticed Wang Hao and Mashiro very quickly, waved at them, and immediately ran over with a happy smile, reached out and hugged Mashiro tightly, rubbing against Mashiro's fair and tender face, Said: "Zhenbai is here! It's been so long since I haven't seen Zhenbai, she has become cute again."

"Ayano, we just met yesterday afternoon..."

"Huh? Is that so?"

Iida Ayano said pretending to be surprised, but she didn't have the slightest thought of letting go of Mashiro from her arms. Seeing this, Wang Hao twitched his mouth, "Editor Iida, you came to see me just to see your face. Does she look like a slut? Also, this is the editorial department of Weekly Jump, as the editor-in-chief, you should pay more attention to the influence..."

"Sorry, sorry, I can't let go of such a cute real white charcoal. Now I am more and more envious that you, a nasty guy, can live with such a lovely elf like real white charcoal."

Iida Ayano scratched her head apologetically, only to realize the surprised gazes of many colleagues around her, her face blushed immediately, she quickly let go of Shiina Mashiro, looked at Wang Hao and asked suspiciously: "By the way, you didn't bully Zhenbaitan Bar?"

Wang Hao rolled his eyes, and said with a slight sneer at the corner of his mouth: "I'm not like some unscrupulous editor who turns into an idiot every time I meet Zhenbai, and you're not going to let us stand in this place next time?" Shall we talk?"

Hearing what he said, Iida Ayano also felt that it would not be good to continue talking here, nodded, and walked forward slowly, "Come with me and sit down there first, and then we can talk, staying here and delaying everyone really won't affect everyone. it is good."

You are only now realizing this!

Wang Hao rubbed his head helplessly. He remembered that the Iida Ayano he met at the beginning was obviously a very serious looking strong woman in the workplace!What did the other party go through these days to become like this?

It's true that one thing overcomes one thing, I didn't expect Zhenbai's lethality to be so great.

"The two people who came to find Editor-in-Chief Iida just now, couldn't they be... Teacher Kamito and Teacher Shiina Mashiro?"

A slightly obese editor with a beer belly who looked about 30 years old pushed his glasses and said, and put down the comic script in his hand.

"I think it should be Mr. Kamito and Shiina-sensei. After all, editor-in-chief Iida is only in charge of two cartoonists now, and those two just now cannot be newcomers, because editor-in-chief Iida has not found any newcomers with potential recently."

A female editor of Iida Ayano's group replied that their group has read the submitted manuscripts these days, but still no editor has found a potential newcomer, so she dares to conclude that the two people just now Not a rookie manga artist who has just been discovered.

"I didn't expect... Teacher Shenzhu and Teacher Shiina are really so young, high school students, this is really youth..."

"Well, after all, I'm still too young. If I develop steadily for a few years, maybe everything will be different, but in the final analysis, the times have changed now."

"By the way, this is the first time I've seen the appearance of Teacher Shenzhu and Teacher Shiina. If I take a picture and upload it on the Internet, it may cause big news!"

Hearing the discussions around, the editor-in-chief Matsumoto was still working with his head down, but the deputy editor-in-chief Beiyuan raised his eyebrows and scolded, "What are you guys doing? Why don't you hurry up and work hard for me?" !"

Hearing this, the editors who spoke just now shuddered and turned back to work.

Wang Hao and Mashiro followed Iida Ayano to a small room next to the editorial department. In fact, it is not quite right to call it a small room, but it is a bit like a certain seat in a coffee shop, in the direction of the wall. A table and two chairs are placed, and there are only a few blue wooden boards next to it. From here, you can look down through the glass and look down at the surrounding buildings.

Although Wang Hao has never been to this kind of small cubicle, he is not unfamiliar with it. This should be the place where comic editors and cartoonists usually discuss comics. The small cubicles of ordinary comic magazines do not have doors or the like. There is an entrance and exit, and editors generally sit at the exit.

Shueisha’s cubicles are installed with sliding doors, so you won’t be disturbed by other people when you close the door, and the cubicles here are all very particular, with numbers in Arabic numerals pasted on the doors outside the cubicles .

It means assigning cubicles by number, because the editors in the editorial department are all assigned according to the group, a group leader manages about two or three people, and a chief editor usually manages six or seven members of the editorial department. Above is the editor-in-chief.

Therefore, each group has its own cubicle, and when talking, you can only go to the cubicle to which your group belongs.

Of course, editors and cartoonists can also choose to discuss in places such as an outside coffee shop. This area is specially reserved by Shueisha for discussion between editors and cartoonists, so you have to follow the rules.

Unlike the editorial department just now, this place is very quiet, but occasionally a few loud discussions can be heard from the nearby cubicle, which is obviously a conflict of opinion between the editor and the cartoonist.

Iida Ayano brought a few drinks from the side, and Wang Hao quickly stood up and took them, saying, "Thank you."

Sitting on the seat, Zhenbai imitated Wang Hao's movements, and said in a dignified manner: "Yyano, thank you..."

Chapter 350 Four, Ayano Stops Crying

"It's okay, let's start discussing the comics next."

Iida Ayano smiled slightly, gradually restrained her smile, and finally showed a serious look on her face. She first looked at Wang Hao, and said with a slight headache: "Mr. Shenzhu, do you know the latest results of Dragon Ball?"

"Didn't you tell me on time every week recently? Xiaozheng's result is still hovering around the fourth or fifth place. This result is not bad, although I don't know what will happen next."

Wang Hao knew very well what Iida Ayano wanted to say, but he couldn't tell the other party his real plan at this time, so he shrugged helplessly and told the "known" information truthfully.

He didn't lie, but he didn't tell the truth either.

Iida Ayano naturally didn't know what Wang Hao was thinking. Hearing the other party's words, he sighed heavily, and said, "Yeah, Dragon Ball's current results are not bad, and Xiaozheng's ranking has not yet fallen below the top six. bit, but the successor is getting weaker and weaker, which you should know best as the original.

The ranking of Dragon Ball seems to be very good now. This is a new work that has not been serialized for a long time. So far, Xiaozheng's ranking has not fallen out of the top six, but this manga was initially won by an absolute advantage. I ranked first, although the ranking is still impressive, but the votes cast by readers are constantly decreasing. "

"I know."

Wang Hao nodded silently. After saying three short words, he stopped talking. He seemed to be fascinated by the scenery outside the window. His eyes flickered back and forth. He seemed very casual, making it hard to tell what was in his heart. think.

Seeing his listless () indifference, Iida Ayano was furious, and suddenly felt that the whole person was on fire from the bottom of her heart, she reached out and slapped the table hard, and there was a "pop" There was a sudden sound, and he shouted angrily: "Then do you know that if this continues, I think this manga will be cut in half in two or three months! It's not even an exaggeration to say that next week Dragon Ball will drop out of the top ten!

Then do you understand how much the plot of Dragon Ball has disappointed the readers?How many readers have delivered dissatisfied letters and a lot of blades in recent days?Do you think this is a joke?

Don't you think that Dragon Ball's current results look good and nothing will happen?Then you don't know that the editorial department is already planning to give up this manga and your famous master teacher!

You guy, don't underestimate me for serialization!Do you understand how many cartoonists have put in so much blood, sweat, youth, and effort to compete for a serialization qualification?Don't treat serialization as a child's play for me!From the moment Dragon Ball was serialized in the manga magazine, it was no longer your work alone. Do you know how many people are waiting for Dragon Ball every week?Don't underestimate me by reading manga, even if you don't have talent, keep going, bastard! ! ! "

As she spoke, two lines of tears slowly flowed down Iida Ayano's face. She has seen many, many heart-wrenching scenes as a manga editor over the years. She had just joined a manga magazine as an editor. When I was in charge, I was in charge of a cartoonist who was also a newcomer.
