"Editor, here I come."

Higashino Hibiki pushed open the door of the editorial office and saw Sasaki. He waved and said with a hearty smile.

The paper bag in Higashino Hibiki's hand suddenly caught Sasaki's attention.

"Teacher!" Yoshida Koji shouted, and quickly ran to Higashino Hibiki under the curious eyes of others, "What are you doing here? This is..."

He looked at the document in Higashino Hibiki's hand, "This is the storyboard of the new work...Teacher, you should let me go through the purpose first. How can I show it directly to the editor? This is a violation."

Higashino Hibiki looked at Yoshida and smiled apologetically: "This time it has nothing to do with Yoshida-kun."

He walked around Yoshida Koji and walked towards Sasaki.

Yoshida Koji stood there blankly. After he recovered, he turned his head and looked at Hibiki Hibiki's back in surprise, "It has nothing to do with me...why?"

Someone shouted: "Yoshida, your landline is ringing."

"Okay... just come here."

Hibiya Hibiki walked up to Sasaki, feeling a little guilty.

This emotion was inexplicable, but he was indeed a little embarrassed and couldn't say the words.

"Tori Akino-kun," Sasaki looked up at Hibiki Hibiki with a smile, "What can I do for you?"

"Editor, take a look at this."

Higashino Hibiki handed the document bag in his hand to Sasaki.

"Oh?" Sasaki was very curious and opened the document bag.

There are more than 80 pages of storyboards in the folder. The first page is the title of the work.

""Hansawa Naoki"..." He murmured softly.

Sasaki couldn't tell anything about the name, so he turned to the second page.

“It was my childhood dream to work at the Industrial Central Bank.”

"There are so many banks, haven't you considered other banks?"

"No, I only consider your company."

Sasaki flipped through the storyboards, and the protagonist named Naoki Hansawa told his story.

Due to the economic crisis, the family company was on the verge of bankruptcy, and his father also passed away because he was too busy.

The local bank with the most business contacts called back the loan, and the Industrial Central Bank was the one who saved the crisis, so he came here to repay the favor.

"I see..." Sasaki saw this and roughly understood the reason why Tori Akino came to the editorial office.

The audience for this comic is adults, the working-class people who have entered society.

There is no doubt that Jump’s readers are teenagers, even elementary school students.

If you can't understand "Naoki Hansawa", you won't like this comic.

His heart became heavy.

The mainstay of his family is about to run away.

"Naoki Hansawa" cannot be serialized in "Weekly Shōnen Jump". Tori Akino is notifying himself that he is going to submit to "Weekly Shōnen Jump".

Sasaki had mixed feelings in his heart and really wanted to say something loudly.

"no!"

In the end, he calmed down and carefully watched the follow-up plot of "Hanzawa Naoki".

Just looking at the storyboards, Sasaki was amazed.

Tori Akino's camera language is becoming more and more skillful.

In the first scene, it was just Naoki Hansawa, and the person applying for the job behind him was blurry, and even the back of the interviewer did not appear.

The image of the protagonist has become an absolute theme, and his every move, expression and language will leave a deep impression on the readers.

After the application was completed, the entire screen was enlarged, and looking down, one could see the entire recruitment site of the bank.

There are hundreds of interview rooms, and thousands of competitors who hope to enter the Industrial Central Bank will immediately grow from small to large. The contrast is amazing and brings a powerful shocking effect.

The subsequent story is also very good, starting from Naoki Hansawa's goal of entering the top management of the bank, and then to the crisis he will face.

Now that people are established, there are urgent matters that need to be solved.

It gives readers a sense of tension and anticipation.

Overall, the narrative logic is very good and it is a comic worth looking forward to.

It's better than the beginning of "Salaryman Kintaro".

If Akino Tori draws it, it will become a smash hit comic in the future. If nothing else, it will also be a classic work worth recalling.

It can bring huge benefits to Shueisha.

"Naoki Hansawa" is good everywhere, but it's a pity...

It cannot be serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump.

Sasaki sighed, Higashi Hibiki heard it, and he started chatting.

Sasaki's tolerance for him has gone beyond what an editor should do for cartoonists, and has reached a point of even more indulgence.

Obata Takeru and Oba Tashi were unable to finish "Death Note" with L's death, and Inoue Takehiko finished "Slam Dunk" and had conflicts with Jump.

He easily did what those few couldn't do.

Therefore, Higashino Hibiki still feels very guilty about Sasaki.

So much so that if he were a Japanese entrepreneur, it would be necessary to hold a press conference and bow deeply and say, "Sign up in Marseille."

"Tori Akino-sensei," Sasaki said, ""Hansawa Naoki" is a very interesting manga, and I am starting to look forward to its follow-up content."

"Thank you." Higashikata bowed slightly.

"I roughly understand what you are thinking." Sasaki did not beat around the bush, "This manga is not suitable for "Shōnen Jump", and it is a masterpiece that cannot be given up, so... you are going to serialize it in "Weekly Youth Jump", right?"

"Well...that's it."

Tuk...tuk...tuk...

Sasaki clicked on the table, feeling very bad.

He didn't want to let Higashikata leave, but it was ultimately Higashino's decision. He couldn't stop the other party, and he couldn't break up with him.

Can we just get together and part ways?

"Editor Yoshida, this is my submission."

Yoshida Koji was very curious about Tori Akino's future intentions, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

But the contributors who had agreed in advance were waiting for him in the living room, so he had to come down.

"Yeah." Yoshida looked at the other person and nodded.

He was a 16-year-old high school student with fuzz at the corners of his mouth and an unreliable look.

What kind of works would such a young man write?

Yoshida expressed doubts.

But editing is a position where you cast a wide net and seize every opportunity.

It would be frustrating to let a potential cartoonist go.

Yoshida looked down.

"It's incredible."

Yoshida was stunned.

Although this comic seems immature and has some problems, they are all minor problems and overall it is very good.

Painting is not a weakness. A 16-year-old boy already has excellent skills.

"Want some coffee?" he asked.

"Thank you." The other party nodded carelessly.

Koji Yoshida goes out to fist pump, and he gets another ace.

Entering the reception room with coffee in hand, Yoshida fell in love with middle school student Yashiro Cheng.

He asked: "Why did Yashiro-kun submit the article to me?"

"Because Yoshida-san is Tori Akino-sensei's editor," Yashiro sat swaying in his chair, "I admire Tori Akino-sensei very much. After seeing the teacher's cartoons in elementary school, I had the dream of becoming a cartoonist. , and then I have been working hard until today.”

"Submit Yoshida-san, but of course Mr. Sasaki no longer accepts submissions. I can only settle for the next best thing..."

Koji Yoshida’s face is full of black lines.

He is not the person who digs into Tori Akino's future, but is responsible for Tori Akino's editor. Because of this status, he is favored by people.

"that is it?"

"Yeah!" Yashiro said fascinated, "Yoshida-san will continue to be responsible for the teacher's next manga."

"Of course!" Yoshida nodded firmly.

"I will be satisfied if I can be closer to the teacher." He firmly believes that he can serialize.

Yashiro Nari looks forward to the future and becomes Tori Akino's future junior.

"It's amazing."

"Tori Akino is leaving Jump in the future."

Sasaki frowned.

He looked at Higashino Hibiki, unable to make a decision for a long time.

No matter which choice you make, Jump will take a huge hit.

But the person in front of him was waiting for his decision with a shy face.

No consideration was given to the difficulty of making the decision.

Suddenly, something occurred to him.

"Toriakino-kun," Sasaki said, "do you remember the manga I once talked about?"

"What?"

"The Cartoonist's Story."

"certainly."

"Then serialize both of them," Sasaki's tone left no room for doubt. "Naoki Hansawa will be serialized in "Shounen Jump" and the manga about the manga artist will be serialized in "Shounen Jump".

Dong Yexiang was surprised and uncertain, "How can this be possible!"

"Of course!" Sasaki said in a calm and forceful tone. Without waiting for Hibiki to think, he said, "As long as you cooperate with others!"

After hearing the story, he had some ideas.

The story line is about comic creation, which may have a narrow audience.

But correspondingly, it will inspire many people to work towards serialization.

"Weekly Shōnen Jump" plants seeds in these people's hearts, and they will reap the fruits in the future.

Jump's new blood will continue to flow, so it will not be broken.

It is of great help to the jump strategy.

More importantly, Tori Akino is still serializing on Jump, and the connection line has not broken.

The bond between them and Tori Akino still exists, and more stories can be created in the future.

"Please let me think about it."

"Well," Sasaki nodded and stood up, "I will take you to meet the editor-in-chief of "Weekly Youth Jump"."

The editorial office of "Weekly Youth Jump" is also in Shueisha's building.

When Higashino Hibiki serialized "The Garden of Words", he also interacted with "Weekly Youth Jump". At that time, Youth Jump's editor-in-chief was Hino Yoshinori.

Time is running fast now. Hideki Furuta, the successor of Hino Yoshinori, has been transferred. The current editor-in-chief of Youth Jump is named Jun Tanaka.

When Higashino Hibiki entered the office, he found that Hiroshi Motomiya was also there.

He and Tanaka Jun looked tired and were talking about "Country Burning".

Compared with the troubles caused by this manga, "Gintama" can only be said to be a breath of fresh air.

"Sasaki-san, what's the matter?" Tanaka Jun asked Sasaki.

Hibiki Higashikata stood next to Sasaki.

After seeing Hibiki Higashino, Motomiya Hiroshi changed his tiredness. He stood up excitedly and greeted him, "Have you finished the painting?"

"It's almost done." Higashikata nodded.

"This is?" Tanaka Jun was confused.

"That's good news."

Hongzhi Momiya held the document bag and was very curious, "Can I take a look?"

"Of course." Hibiki Higashikata said.

Looking at this scene and Sasaki with a straight face, Tanaka Jun was thoughtful.

He stood up in surprise and said incoherently, "Could it be...could it be said!"

Tori Akino will be serialized in "Weekly Youth Jump" in the future!

This is huge news in Shueisha.

Colleagues who also belong to Shueisha, whether it is "Jump Sp", "V Jump", whether it is "ULTRA JUMP", or the girl-oriented "COOKIE Magazine", the editors of these editorial departments are all envious and jealous.

On Jump, even ordinary cartoonists are worth exploring.

Now Jump's mainstay Tori Akino Mirai is serialized in Youth Jump, which is really a big thing.

"That guy in Tanaka was hit by a pie falling from the sky!" He gritted his teeth.

"Is Tori Akino-kun going to be serialized in "Seinen Jump"?"

Gui Zhenghe was very surprised when he heard the news.

This direction is somewhat similar to his.

After completing the pinnacle work of the love comic "I"s", he drew the comic he had always wanted to draw, which was "Superman" inspired by "Batman".

The popularity of this comic is naturally not as good as "I"s". The average volume sales volume is only about 200,000. Although it can be called excellent, it is still far behind the results when drawing love comics.

"I"s" has a circulation of 10 million in all 15 volumes.

But Gui Zhenghe was quite happy with his paintings. The serialization started in 2002, which is already 2005.

It is foreseeable that "Super Demon" can be painted for a long time.

His desire to create "Super Demon" cannot be compared to romance comics.

"Are Tori Akino-kun the same as me?"

There is more pursuit of yourself.

Maybe it’s also the original intention of drawing comics.

He couldn't tell.

"Maybe," Kazuhiko Toshima looked up and smiled. He had read "Naoki Hansawa", "but that manga is quite good, and it's not something you, an overestimating person, can compare to."

He said it quite rudely.

Gui Zhenghe smiled distressedly, "Mr. Torishima, what you said is really too much."

"However, talented people are so good. They can succeed in drawing any kind of comics."

He lacks this talent when he draws superhero comics.

Higashino Mirai's food was everywhere, and even the napkin he wore was stained on his sleeves.

Akimiya Akemi is dealing with it distressedly.

"Your son really is."

She pinched Orchid's fingers and showed Hibiki the dirty clothes in disgust.

"Already three years old, he still looks like a baby."

She will make dinner for adults later.

No mood at all.

"Then send him to kindergarten. It's time." Higashino suggested.

"Yeah." Akimiya Akemi nodded.

There is a kindergarten near the villa. It is very gorgeously decorated and the teachers are very competent. The neighbors nearby are praising it.

"So," Higashino Hibiki approached Akimiya Akemi with a serious expression, which made Akimiya Akemi startled.

"You..." Higashino Hibiki spoke slowly, but saw the dirty clothes lying between him and Akimiya Akemi.

He grabbed the clothes in disgust and threw them aside.

"Let's start over again," Hibiki Higashino said seriously, "Teacher Akimiya, after you no longer have to take care of children, do you want to start drawing comics again?"

"Ah?" Akimiya Akemi was stunned by this question.

As far as the family is concerned, she has decided to pay.

Now Higashikata Hibiki's words made her unable to recover for a moment.
