This boring world without comics

In the serialization of Demon Slayer: Blade, the story has just progressed to the point where the protagonist Tanjiro passed the selection test of the Demon Slayer Team and officially became a member of the Demon Slayer Team.

The previous plots progress slowly, and there is no such fast narrative method as Spirited Away.

This work contains a lot of the inner activities and growth of the protagonist Tanjiro, a proper young jumping hot-blooded male protagonist.

Jiang Hao also noticed the feedback from netizens. Some people said that the progress of the plot was too slow, and after several weeks of chasing, it seemed that he still hadn't entered the exciting place.

There is no way, seeing such comments, Jiang Hao has no way at all.

Long-form serial comics are generally like this, and the pace of the early stage of Ghost Slayer: Blade is indeed slower. It is indeed normal for the audience to have such a reaction, but Jiang Hao believes that it will definitely get better later.

why?

because--

He finally made up his mind to animate it!It's the kind of animation that can be serialized on TV every week!

The comics industry is actually a complete set, from comics to animation to stage plays to concerts to peripherals to three creations... These links form a complete industrial chain.

No matter which part in the middle is missing, it is impossible to complete!

Among them, animation is the best way to drive the sales and popularity of comics!

However, there is one more problem to be solved now.

According to the current serialization speed of Demon Slayer: Blade, it may take a year or two to start animation, and no one can know what will happen in the middle.

You know, the comics industry in this world is incomplete. No one is really willing to spend a year or two waiting for a work that has not fully attracted everyone to be animated. By that time, I am afraid that the readers will have already run away.

What Jiang Hao needs is continuous exposure. This does not refer to the enthusiasm like marketing, but to actually present good content to stimulate discussions among readers.

He had an idea in his mind, something he'd been thinking about in training camp.

However, he is still a little uncertain about this matter, and he is still struggling with it.

...

.......

Jiang Hao went out, and before going where he wanted to go, he went around the port mafia for a while.

He would definitely not go empty-handed, he brought a few stuffed pies baked at noon today.

Since the relationship between the two got closer in the training camp, Jiang Hao often brought ready-made food to feed Mori Ogai.Sometimes the two subordinates who met Mori Ogai there would give them a little bit.

In Jiang Hao's eyes, Dazai Zhi and Central Plains are also the future flowers of the motherland, and it is not easy to come out to make a living at a young age.Every time I see them, I can't help but care about them as elders.

Every time before Jiang Hao came over, he would send a text message to Mori Ogai, asking him to notify him in advance.

He didn't dare not post it if he didn't do it!

Once, Jiang Hao didn't tell Mori Ogai that he was coming, but as soon as he stepped into the port mafia building, he was pointed at by countless men in black.

That scene is truly unforgettable...

Since that time, Jiang Hao would say hello in advance before coming, so that Mori Ogai would let the person who responded to Jiang Hao wait downstairs in advance.

The trouble is not too much trouble, but it feels like entering some high-level secret place every time I come here, it still feels a bit weird...

Upstairs, the chief's office.

Mori Ogai put away all the confidential documents on the table. Originally, he just wanted to put them in a drawer, but in the end he chose to put them directly in the safe below.

This can be regarded as a two-way protection... If some important information is really leaked, at least he doesn't have to doubt Jiang Hao.

After the man in black delivered Jiang Hao, he left immediately.

Just kidding... Whoever dares to disturb the boss now is a fool.

"Have you had lunch yet? I brought you something when I came over." Jiang Hao took out some stuffed pies wrapped in oil paper.

Mori Ogai actually just had lunch, but looking at the sweat on someone's forehead that has not been wiped off, and the eyes that are obviously looking forward to but pretending not to care... Who can say Have you already eaten it?

"I haven't eaten yet." Mori Ogai decisively chose to conceal the truth.

Jiang Hao was very happy after hearing this, and took out a few oil paper bags from the bag: "These are for Dazai-kun and Nakaya-kun, I will be leaving in a while, I guess I won't have a chance to see them today. "

"..." Mori Ogai was eating delicious stuffed pancakes and suddenly seemed a little uncomfortable, "You seem to bring something to them every time you come?"

"That's right, two underage children and no family to take care of them, they must be the type who don't know how to eat well. Anyway, I've come all the time, so it's not bad for them."

If possible, Jiang Hao really wanted to persuade Mori Ogai to enroll the two children in a class or something, after all, cultural classes and the like should not be completely missed.As the saying goes, if you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid to travel all over the world!

The more Jiang Hao thinks about it, the more he feels that his idea is very correct, and he must mention it to Mori Ogai when he has a chance.

Anyway, Mori Ogai is quite upset in his heart......

He discovered that Jiang Hao seemed to take special care of Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuya a few times ago, so when Mori Ogai just received the news that Jiang Hao was coming, he sent those two people out to do missions Oh... I didn't expect it, it turned out that I couldn't completely prevent it.

Mori Ogai silently accepted the stuffed pie that Jiang Hao originally wanted to give to Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuya, but he didn't promise to hand it over to them anyway.

"Are you tired all the way?" Mori Ogai poured a cup of tea for Jiang Hao, "When will you find a place to live in Yokohama City, so it's not too far to go back and forth."

More importantly, I can go back to live occasionally!

That kind of feeling that someone is waiting for you at home after get off work, anyway, it’s very sweet to think about!

Jiang Hao: "Actually, I'm thinking about this myself."

Mori Ogai originally thought that Jiang Hao would say something like living in the forest is good.

Jiang Hao knows that since he has let the Chicken Eagle Club into everyone's sight, he will definitely have a lot of things to do in the future. He likes the little house in the forest very much, but for the sake of career, he still has to move to the city It is more convenient to live.

In addition, Jiang Hao knew that once the industrial chain officially started to run, he would definitely be too busy alone, so he needed to recruit employees at this time.With employees, it is natural not to let them all go to and from get off work in the forest every day, right?

So thinking about it in the long run, it really is impossible to stay in the forest any longer.

Mori Ogai actually wanted to say directly that he has a high-end apartment next to the port mafia headquarters building, if not, he also has a villa a little farther away, if not, he can tell someone to build a house today , and then Jiang Hao can move in with his bags!

Of course... Needless to say, Mori Ogai knew that Jiang Hao would definitely not agree.....

"There's nothing wrong with the house, it's just that something else has happened recently..." Jiang Hao's tone was a little hesitant. In fact, the reason why he came to Mori Ogai today was to hope that he could give him some insights.

"What's wrong? Have you encountered any difficulties?"

Jiang Hao is still hesitating in his heart, but since he has already spoken, let's ask.

He deliberately rearranged the language so that he could explain things clearly without revealing too much information.

Jiang Hao has not confessed to Mori Ogai that he is the leader of the Chicken Eagle Club. He wants to wait until he has a little achievement in the future.

"That's the kind...how should I put it... just to better develop my career, maybe I will feel sorry for some people who have helped me before, is it too much?" hesitating, In the end, Jiang Hao still tried his best to say what he wanted to express.

Seeing Jiang Hao trying to hide it, Mori Ogai thought it was funny and cute.

Seeing how difficult it is for him, I still don't expose him for the time being.

What Mori Ogai himself can guess is that it has something to do with the serialization on the Asahi Shimbun, and it is estimated that Jiang Hao intends to expand to other platforms.

"Jiang Haojun, don't take other people's help to you as kindness. In fact, they also benefited from you. It's just that you just needed help from others and they showed up. That's all. So don't worry about it. These, just make what you think is the right decision, and you don’t owe anyone anything.”

Mori Ogai only shared some of his views on Jiang Hao's matter, and he actually followed Yi Li to get together and leave after Li was exhausted, but Jiang Hao should not know these things.

He just needs to be happy being himself.

Mori Ogai's words confirmed Jiang Hao's inner choice.

"I see! Thank you!" After saying that, Jiang Hao was about to walk to the door.

Mori Ogai felt uncomfortable again when he saw it: "Aren't you going to stay a little longer? You just came here?"

"No, no." Jiang Hao directly refused, the confusion in his heart was relieved, and now he was about to go to work on his business, "I was just passing by today, and I will come back next time when I am free."

"........."

Mori Ogai has "happy" written all over his face.

As if thinking of something, Jiang Hao was about to step out of the door, but suddenly turned back.

He ran to Mori Ogai's side and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

"Bye-Bye."

Mori Ogai looked at the people who had already run out, smiled and shook his head.

I didn't expect that I would still have this feeling of being in love even after I was quite old.

But...it's really good.

****

After Jiang Hao came out of the port mafia, he came directly to the printing factory.

Since the last time a large order of 100 million was placed here, everyone in the printing factory has known Jiang Hao.

"What is the boss going to print today?" The employees here like to call Boss Jiang Hao, because it is really comfortable to do his business, as long as it is completed according to the regulations, there will be no bargaining or anything.

"Of course I'm here to print books." Jiang Hao's demeanor was relaxed, and he didn't feel the panic when he came in for the first time. "This time I won't print many books, only two thousand copies."

"okay."

Jiang Hao is printing comic books this time!

It's not in color, it's really the most traditional black and white comic book.

He is going to make a physical comic of Demon Slayer: Blade!

The serial speed of Asahi Shimbun's newspapers is the same as that of Jump. At this speed, it will take several years to see the results. It is too slow and too unsafe.

Jiang Hao will release three volumes of Ghost Slayer: Blade comic books, and directly advance the progress of the plot manually.

The third volume of the manga happens to be the time when the protagonists get together, and it is here that the exciting things really begin. At the same time, the twelve ghosts and moon nights will appear one after another.

Every month after that, he will release the latest volume of the comic book.

He needs to let people in this world get used to this way of purchasing serials, because in the future he will definitely start publishing serialized comic books like Boy Jump in this world, and call for contributions nationwide in the name of Chicken Eagle Club, so as to completely run the comic industry stand up.

But before that, he needs the animation of Ghost Slayer to help him accomplish this series of goals.

This is why he first chose Ghost Slayer: Blade as the long-term serialization.Because it is a very typical work that relies on animation to drive sales.

Readers who don’t want to spend money can still choose to follow up on newspapers, and readers who spend money can see stories and content that are updated faster.

After all, this time the two sides are selling together, and the people who spent the money must feel that their money was not wasted.

Jiang Hao confirmed the details of typesetting and paper materials with the printing house, and finally signed the contract.

After finishing these things, Jiang Hao used the twitter account of Chicken Eagle Club and the twitter account of Mr. Wutoge Hu Shiqing to simultaneously post about Demon Slayer: Blade will sell physical comic books in the form of a monthly magazine.

[Oh hoo, is Chicken Eagle Club going to amplify its moves? ]

[The general content is that if you want to see the later plot, you can buy it. If you don’t want to buy it, you can wait for the normal serialization.It's okay, it's not blindfolded by money, it's a conscience]

[Grass, I really love this one, I am worried that there is no place for me to see the back. ]

[I'm going to see Sister Nezuko!Introduce to everyone this is my new wife! ]

[Woooooh, although I want to see the continuation of the story, but I want to see the moneyless cub go bushi on the street]

[As soon as the upstairs opened his mouth, he knew that he was really in love hhhhh]

****

Jiang Hao learned in his original world that there is a very, very useful method to drive the enthusiasm of a certain thing.

That is - star benefit!

If we talk about the circles and trends driven by manga and animation, cosplay is definitely a must!

Seeing the characters in the anime come to life in front of you, the feeling really couldn't be better!

What Jiang Hao has to do now is this.

But the question is who will play it?

Although it is said that the cosplay circle stipulates that cosplayers do not show face, but if you want to attract everyone's attention, you still have to be handsome and beautiful.

So this casting has become a difficult problem.

Originally, Jiang Hao was still looking for someone to be an important cosplayer in the cosplay promotion, until one day he saw a magazine in a convenience store, and the candidate was instantly decided.

Jiang Hao successfully found the phone number of that person's brokerage company and dialed it.

"Hello, this is the person in charge of Jiying Club. We intend to cooperate with your company's models. I don't know how to go through the next procedure?"

Although Jiang Hao's voice sounded very calm, in fact he was also very anxious.

Who would have thought that after coming to a different world, he would actually start a company, and would have to learn many things from scratch.

For the thousand and one time, Jiang Hao regretted why he didn't study business in college at that time...

The voice on the other end of the phone: "Which model do you want to work with? I can check the schedule."

"The person I want to cooperate with is Kise Ryota."

right!It's that Kise Ryota from Kuroko Basketball!

When Jiang Hao saw Kise Ryota's face in a magazine in a convenience store, he had already made up his mind.

This position belongs to him!

——Anyway, Jiang Hao will never admit that he is chasing stars at public expense!
