Zongman: Why are all your comics full of knives?

"Teacher Nangong, the fourth volume of "Three Questions on the End of the World", when do you plan to start writing?"

Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Nangong Mu said helplessly:

"Machida editor, didn't you say that if the speed of the release is too fast, it is easy to underexpose, and eventually the sales will not meet expectations?"

I've said such things,

But for people like you, it's not applicable at all~ ! !

Machida Enko couldn't help but roar in her heart.

Volume 1, volume 2, volume 3, the first month of a volume - sales are higher than a volume,

Such a weird curve chart, after so many years as the editor-in-chief,

She's never seen it before!!

Although I don't have to work overtime this New Year, I'm very happy.

But there is no sales of dragon explosions like "Three Questions of Doom",

I always feel that the small amount of money that should be in hand is a lot less.

Most importantly,

Recently, she can't see many readers under Nangong Mu's SNS account,

Ask for news from the fourth volume of the Three Doomsday Questions.

Even because the speed of this release is faster than the previous issue (one volume a month),

There are also rumors that after the teacher finished writing the third volume, Jiang Lang has already finished his career!

As the editor in charge of Nangong Mu, how could she turn a blind eye to this kind of thing!

Thinking of this, Machida Yuanzi said with words:

"Teacher Nangong, as a genius, how can you compare with those ordinary people!?"

"For those people, this is true, but for you, for a genius like you, the so-called sales are simply nothing!"

It's January 4.

The working dogs have returned to the company and started to work.

That's why Machida Enko called in the afternoon.

If it's on holiday, work on her as a dog!

Facing the praise of Machida Yuanzi, Nangong Mu smiled indifferently.

"Don't worry, editor-in-chief Machida. "

"I'm already working on the fourth volume of The Last Questions. "

Machida Enko's eyes lit up: "So when will I be able to finish the manuscript!?"

It's not that I'm not worried about Nangong Mu.

Although there are many authors in hand, they are the kind of:

Rest assured, it's already being written.

I'll take it after a while.

No problem, you can put a hundred hearts!

Verbally promised well, but his hands were still fishing.

If you don't take the initiative to ask, wait until the deadline is approaching.

The other person may bring a computer with a few words written in front of you.

But Machida Yuanzi has a hundred hearts for Nangong Mu.

As a good best friend of Jun Yetang, she knows that the other party does not have a record of dragging the manuscript in her hand!

Even every time, the new work has just begun to be serialized,

If you can sell a single book,

The other party can also come up with a whole set of works right away!

Coupled with the super high efficiency of the other party before,

Machida Enko is not worried that the other party will lie to herself at all!

The reason for confirming it is also to facilitate the relevant arrangements in advance!

"It's the middle of the month. Nangong Mu replied without thinking.

The smile on Machida Enko's face was even brighter:

"Looks like I've done it too much. "

I can take it out in the middle of the month,

It is clear that the other side has written quite a lot by now.

Even if she doesn't urge, she may receive a call from the other party in two days.

"I'm still a little anxious. "

After a little self-reflection, I exchanged two more pleasantries.

Machida Enko also hung up the phone.

Nangong Mu's eyes moved, looked at the half-painted "Four Lies" in front of him, and sighed helplessly.

"Forget it, let's finish "Four Lies" today. "

As for the fourth volume of "Three Questions on the Last Days", it is not too late to take a day to write it tomorrow.

The content of three volumes was enough for him to draw a lot.

Therefore, the fourth volume of Nangong Mu didn't want to come out so quickly at first.

The third episode of "Three Questions at Doomsday" is indeed the climax of the whole work.

But the content of the next two volumes is not bad.

After all, the protagonist of this work is William, and Kodori is just the most popular character after the animation.

And the last two volumes sublimate William's sadness to the extreme!

William, who lives aimlessly, meets Elmeria again,

In order to wait for him, even if he is not an adult, he has to call his "father" in her voice.

For more than 500 years, he has been here, like a broken music box that has been singing,

Just to listen to his "I'm back", and then bake the best cream cake for William to eat.

But this is already an impossible wish, and she can no longer be saved.

So, William used his sharp blade to pierce her chest and stop her singing.

I'm sorry.

He failed to save his most important people.

Even so, before she died, the girl still showed an angry smile.

Such an expression can only sting people's hearts even more.

And his story has come to an end here.

Retracting his thoughts, Nangong Mu couldn't help but sigh.

In fact, he didn't like such tragedies either.

But...

"Who makes the fans like it?"

Nangong Mu shook his head.

On the road of favoring fans, he has really paid too much.

"Well, since the editor of Machida asked, I'll spend a day tomorrow writing the fourth volume. "

In other words, the holiday should be used for rest,

Why is he working harder!?

Damn it!

Self-complaining, Nangong Mu still honestly chooses to work.

Hayasaka loved to speak and stopped, and finally couldn't help but persuade:

"Kaguya-sama, are you sure you don't plan to take a look?"

"Don't look!"

Shinomiya Kaguya said expressionlessly: "I was deceived by those guys last time. "

"Keep saying that this gift is great, this song is good, and the result is ......"

I recalled myself crying silently in my room at that time.

A flash of shame flashed in Kaguya's usually dull pupils.

But "Three Questions of Doom" didn't hurt her.

After all, the description full of sadness, just a few glances, the girl did not hesitate to seal it.

As for that video, I didn't even look at it.

"As long as I have this picture, I am already very satisfied!"

Looking at the one-meter-long color painting hanging in his room,

Kaguya Shinomiya's face showed a look of satisfaction.

Ai Hayasaka sighed helplessly: "But this time the gift from this teacher really has no pitfalls." "

As the other party's personal maid,

Ai Hayasaka knows how much bad things have happened to the other party this New Year.

If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have thought about making the other party happy.

Faced with Ai Hayasaka's persuasion, Kaguya Shinomiya hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Don't!"

Maybe there is no pitfall in the gift, but she definitely doesn't want to take any risks!

As long as she's not curious, there won't be any danger!

After all, that feeling of crying, she doesn't want to experience it again!!

Ai Hayasaka was silent for a moment, and out of nowhere she found a picture book.

"Kaguya-sama, do you want to see this?"

"What is this?"

""Magic Circle", "Flower Name" and "Doomsday Three Questions" fanworks. "

Without waiting for Kaguya to speak, Ai Hayasaka continued, "The ending is a very beautiful one. "

Shinomiya Kaguya's eyes lit up, and he instantly snatched the picture book from Ai Hayasaka's hand,

The tone of his voice was slow: "I'll see." "

A picture book of more than 10 pages is not very long.

Kaguya Shinomiya finished reading it quickly.

And halfway through it, there was already an uncontrollable aunt's smile on her face.

Successfully evolved from the previous "Icy Kaguyahime" to "Sand Sculpture Beauty".

Looked at.

Ai Hayasaka was also relieved.

I can't help but feel happy for Kaguya with a smile on her face.

It's just that......

After looking at the work, the smile on Kaguya's face only lasted a few minutes before disappearing.

The tone of his voice was even colder than before.

"Hayasaka, don't show me this kind of thing next time. "

"I'm a little tired, you can go and rest too. "

What's wrong with this guy again!?

Despite the question mark in her heart, Ai Hayasaka nodded:

"Yes, Kaguya-sama. "

When you are alone in the house,

The cold mask on Kaguya's face vanished.

Like a ruby, the bright pupils reveal loneliness and loneliness.

"This kind of love will not exist in reality. "

January 5th, the second day of work.

Shueisha. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Mr. Editor-in-Chief, are you going to attend this afternoon's regular meeting?"

Kazuko Torishima showed a helpless expression:

"If you're asking how you can avoid attending this afternoon's row meeting, I'll be able to answer you. "

"Now that it's all said and done, can I still disagree?"

Minno said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Editor-in-Chief, for your understanding." "

"Are you going to deal with the anime this afternoon?" Kazuko Torishima said curiously.

Minno corrected: "It's not about processing, it's about recommending a good work to them." "

Kazuko Torishima smiled: "Whatever you say, it's what you say." "

"Can I show this old man Mr. Nangong's script, I'm a fan of Mr. Nangong! I'm looking forward to his new work. "

"That kind of thing is not taken for granted..."

Minno put away his smile: "Can't you?"

“......"

Talking to me, an old man, and still panting so much!

I can't help but look forward to it!!

Kazuko Torishima glared at his beard and waved his hand to make a gesture of driving people: "Let's go." "

"I'm angry when I see you girl. "

Jun Ye nodded to the old man: "Then I'll go first, Mr. Editor-in-Chief." "

SHAFT。

It is part of the same group as Shueisha and Fujimi Publishing House.

TWO YEARS AGO, THEY EVEN ACQUIRED WHITEFOX (WHITE FOX), WHICH CAN BE SEEN TO BE FULL OF AMBITION.

But the fact is that they have not made any masterpieces in the past two years.

It's already on the verge of losing animation!

Now for them,

The most important thing is to make sure that this year we can come up with a work that can be evaluated in the top three at the end of the year!

Otherwise, they will lose their animation production qualifications......

Just thinking about how to let that happen, the faces of the high-level people couldn't help but darken.

There is a feeling of numbness in the scalp.

It's hard to say about ordinary employees, but they are definitely going to be unlucky!

17 o'clock sharp.

Marukawa Masato said with a little headache: "Hasn't that adult come yet?"

"Mr. President, it seems that we haven't arrived yet. "

Due to the current predicament of the company,

A commissioner was arranged at the group headquarters, saying that he was coming to help.

Of course, that's just a superficial rhetoric.

Isn't it actually distrustful of them!?

Although he knew this in his heart, Marukawa Masato did not feel angry.

If the other party can really solve the current dilemma, he will be grateful to the other party.

"I'm afraid that the other party won't understand anything. "

With such worries in his heart, Marukawa Masato sighed.

"Forget it, let's go to the conference room first. "

For every company, a regular Friday meeting is essential.

When he arrived at the conference room, Masato Marukawa had a surprised expression on his face, and then a kind smile appeared on his face.

"Little sister, are you lost?"

The other party was dressed in white and looked like a young girl.

This one is naturally entangled in the wilderness.

"Hello Mr. Marukawa. "

The expression on Mino's face is a little cold, which is a little different from the usual painting style.

"I'm a commissioner from headquarters. "

"I think you should have received the news in advance. "

Marukawa Masato was stunned for a moment, and then a warm smile appeared on his face:

"Welcome, welcome. "

"Miss, what do you call it?"

"It's all wild, just call me all wild. "

"It's meeting time, let's go in together?"

"Hmm. "

Why did the group arrange for such a little girl to come down?

Marukawa Masato muttered a little.

Although it is wrong to judge people by their appearance,

But the appearance of Minno is indeed easy to misunderstand.

Enter the meeting room.

There were already quite a few people sitting inside.

All of them are at the top of the company.

Without delay, the group sat down.

"This is Miss Minano. "

"At present, everyone knows the situation of the company, so the group specially arranged a commissioner to come down to help us. "

Minno stood up from his position and nodded to everyone present.

Then he said, "Hello everyone. "

"Before the meeting begins, I would like to say a few words. "

"All of you know more about animation than I do, so I'm not going to get involved in your day-to-day work. "

But please always remember what kind of crisis the company is facing right now. "

"If the worst happens, I think it's the worst that neither side wants to see. "

After a pause, Minno looked around at the expressions of the crowd.

I saw that many people had solemn expressions and frowns.

Then he spoke.

"I'm here today to provide you with a plan. "

As he spoke, Minno took out the script that was ready to be copied in advance.

The person in charge of the office immediately came over,

Take this copy of the script and distribute it.

"Let's read it first, and if you don't think the script works, we'll move on to the next meeting. "

"If I think the script is okay, I want to know how long it will take to make it. "

With that, Minno sat back in his place.

It can be seen that many people have some complaints about the practice of being wild and entangled.

A small expression on his face, a slight frown, a dissatisfied expression.

Subconsciously moved up and down the Adam's apple as if he wanted to complain, and then forcibly held back.

Minno looked at it, but he didn't plan to say anything.

Maybe it's a bit noisy, but as an outsider,

It's about showing your strong side at times like this.

Otherwise, you won't be able to stop these guys.

These high-level officials saw that Marukawa Masato, who was the president, did not speak,

I had to suppress the dissatisfaction in my heart and look at the script in my hand.

Marukawa Masato is very satisfied with Minano.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of a god-like opponent, you are afraid of a pig-like teammate.

A layman who is addicted to food has to command twice,

Just thinking about it knows what kind of disaster it would be.

As soon as the other party came, he said that he would not interfere, which was equivalent to giving him a reassurance.

Then, taking out the script made him even more pleasantly surprised.

A good work,

The script is an essential part!

The reason why I haven't come up with outstanding works over the years,

It's because I don't have a good script in my hand!

"If this script is good enough, then all the current crises will be solved!"

Come to think of it.

Marukawa Masato's gaze at the script was a little hot.

For these high-level executives who have a relationship, they may be able to find a way out in advance.

But as the president, he is so old now,

If there is such a big mistake before retirement,

Then don't think about spending the whole year!

So to talk about the desire to solve problems,

There was no one more urgent than he was!

Suppress all kinds of emotions surging in your heart,

Marukawa Masato opened the script in front of him.

The others saw that the president had already looked at it seriously,

I could only suppress the dissatisfaction in my heart and watch it together.

The meeting room was also incredibly quiet.

But....

In less than ten minutes, the silence was shattered.

"Miss Minano, are you sure you got this script right!?"

"Is this garbage?".
