Zongman: Why are all your comics full of knives?

Friday, after school.

A café located near Shueisha.

Nangong Mu Tongyin Sha saw Zhang and the two sitting opposite each other.

“...... This week, "Magic Circle" has been serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump".

According to the reader questionnaire received, it is currently the top three high scores~".

Questionnaires are an old tradition of Shueisha.

Through the questionnaire sent back by readers, it is clear which works are popular and which are not popular.

Of course, such a generalization is also somewhat one-sided.

The simplest example.

Many men like "Tolove" very much, but because it is too astringent, they don't want others to know that they have chosen it as the top three works.

Another example is Nishio Restoration's manga "The Strongest President Black God" with Akira Akatsuki on wj (short for "Weekly Shonen Jump").

Although the rating remains at the end all year round, it will sell well every time a single book is issued

The reason for this is simply because Nishio Restoration's works are very sticky, but his fans don't like to buy WJ.

Back to the point.

Nangong Mu thought about the plot of the first episode of the magic circle.

How to say it, although there is a foreshadowing of Xiao Meiyan returning to the present through the timeline,

But on the premise of not knowing the specific plot, it's not much different from an ordinary magical girl.

For a magazine dominated by juvenile comics, the magical girl theme is definitely not welcomed.

Reader feedback is also very good.

There is only one reason why this is the case.

These readers have bought a single book and know the plot behind!

"I didn't expect the sound sand editor to be someone who would care about this kind of thing. "

Yin Sha saw Zhang helplessly spread his hands: "What do you think adults work hard for!"

No matter how enthusiastic you are, if you don't have a corresponding return, it will be exhausted!

The only thing that can move a mature adult is the salary.

"If you get a bonus for the top three works in the total monthly rating, I'm counting on you. "

After speaking, Yin Sha saw Zhang looking at Nangong Mu pitifully.

"I think you should be counting on the reader more. "

"By the way, as a benefit, the author can also receive a bonus!".

"And it's much higher than what we editors can get!".

After speaking, Yin Sha saw Zhang Tou with envious eyes.

Nangong Mu nodded seriously: "I will call on fans to vote for "Magic Circle"!".

This guy!

Don't you be so fickle!

Otosha saw Zhang tugging at the corners of his mouth

Thinking that you can also reap the benefits, give up spitting....

"No!".

"Don't you have an official SNS certified account yet?".

Nangong Mu replied with a big roll of his eyes: "Are you an editor or am I an editor?"

"You shouldn't have thought of this in advance?"

It's angry, but this guy is not wrong.

I didn't expect this, it can be said that she is derelict as an editor!

"I'm sorry, I'll help you apply when I get back. "

Nangong Mu nodded and threw a teachable look at the other party.

Don't be angry!

Otosha saw Zhang clenching his fists and taking a deep breath.

“...... Sales of the "Magic Circle" single book are declining this week, but it shouldn't be difficult to break through 100,000 copies. "

"Isn't it normal for sales to drop in the second week, take it easy. "

"100,000 copies is already impressive. "

Yin Sha saw Zhang nodded subconsciously, and then reacted.

Wait a minute.

Isn't that what I should have said? How did it become this guy's line!?

And why does this picture look so much like a secretary reporting to his boss?

But if you think about it, ......

"This guy's works are excellent and sell well, and he can get more wages and bonuses. "

Solved the case!

So this guy is my boss, and Shueisha is just a third-party company that pays salaries!

The debriefing is a matter of course!

I found a reason to successfully convince myself.

It doesn't seem to be useful, but at least it feels good.

“......"

After talking about the recent situation, Yin Sha saw Zhang with a serious expression.

"Then Mr. Nangong, what is the purpose of meeting me today?"

"Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal. "

Nangong Mu waved his hand, signaling the other party to relax a little, and then said:

"I've finished painting "Magic Circle", and today I want to give you the rest of the draft. "

"I'm done. "

Yin Sha nodded when he saw Zhang, and said with emotion: "Actually, Teacher Nangong doesn't have to work so hard. "

"The manuscripts you handed me last time have been enough for a long time!".

Take the single book issued, for example, the amount of 12 words in total,

It's been enough for more than two months!

Even if you're a little lazy, it's perfectly fine.

"That's right, but I won't be painting "Magic Circle" again. "

Sure enough!

Yin Sha covered his head when he saw Zhang, how could this guy's performance not be a "problem child"?

But it's her job to correct such problematic children

That's where I have to show my dignity as an editor!

Seeing Zhang, Otosha clenched his fists and encouraged himself.

Then a bright smile appeared on his face, and he said humbly: "May I ask Mr. Nangong, has something happened at home?"

"If you have any questions, you can tell me, I'm sure the company is very willing to help!!".

"You don't have to hide anything from me!".

Nangong Mu looked at Yin Sha with a confused expression: "What are you talking about?"

"Then I'll get straight to the point. "

Yin Sha saw Zhang and said solemnly: "The results of "Magic Circle" are so good, why did you choose to suspend the publication?".

"When did I say that?".

Yin Sha saw Zhang's grievances: "Didn't you just say that you won't paint "Magic Circle" again?".

"I'm done drawing, why should I paint again?".

"I guess I'm done. "

Seeing Zhang, Yin Sha breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

Then his eyes widened and he exclaimed, "I'm done!?"

The sound is so loud that it directly attracts all the eyes around it.

Yin Sha saw that Zhang didn't have time to take care of this, and said urgently:

"You mean that the manuscript handed to me this time is not just for the next time, but for all the "Magic Circle" to the end!?".

"That's right. "

“？？"

The sound sand saw that Zhang couldn't accept it.

What kind of speed the hell is this guy?

Why is it so fast!?

Electric

motors shouldn't be so exaggerated!

No, it's not!

No matter how fast it is, a long-form comic can't be finished so quickly.

Unless ......

"Teacher Nangong, let me ask, how many single books can be published for the rest of the plot of "Magic Circle"?".

"One copy. "

Sure enough!!

This is not a long-form manga at all.,It's a short story that has been serialized for less than half a year!!

Yin Sha couldn't help but persuade when he saw Zhang crying and laughing: "Teacher Nangong, "Magic Circle" still has a lot of potential

I don't think it's necessary to finish it so quickly. "

"Now that the story I want to tell is over, it should be over. "

"Don't you think it's a pity?

Next time, I may not be able to draw such a hit again, and I may not be able to get a serialization opportunity so easily.

The most important thing is to come up with a new story, which is not easy. "

"If that's all you're worried about, I think it's okay to settle down. "

"Huh?".

"Actually, I've already drawn the beginning of the next piece. "

“？？"

Yin Sha saw Zhang stunned in his seat, his face full of confusion and helplessness.

It wasn't like my hearing was delusional, right?

If not...... When did it become so easy to draw manga!?
