Tokyo life starting with painting

Chapter 318 One-vote veto (4000 words)

"Hanzawa Naoki" became popular, and it was inexplicably popular.

Even the statistics department of Tomishima Publishing House, our company, had no idea.

As expected, "Hansawa Naoki" will take at least a day or two to settle down before it becomes popular. After all, compared with those old comics that have been serialized for more than ten or more than 20 years, "Hansawa Naoki" is the first The words.

How is it possible that you can beat other comics so quickly?

They were caught off guard by the speed of "Naoki Hansawa" and showed unexpected expressions.

Even Editor-in-Chief Urashima and Deputy Editor-in-Chief Furuta Shinji urgently sent out new data sheets.

"Has Naoki Hansawa worked?"

"Teacher Higashino really did not disappoint me."

"Is this more than a level that doesn't disappoint?"

The editors below were talking a lot.

Although Higashinoji's own reputation is added, it cannot change that "Naoki Hansawa" is just a new manga.

It’s terrifying to see this brand-new comic take on the classic works of a group of veteran comics authors from New Iwazhu Publishing House and win.

This is equivalent to everyone hoping that Higashinoji could score 100 points at the start, but Higashinoji ended up with a score of 150 points.

This achievement is too exaggerated.

Perhaps the only person who didn't show any surprise was Hosokawa Koharu, who had been observing the form next to him.

She had noticed before that Higashino Tsukasa's "Naoki Hansawa" was not only loved by teenagers, but also by some working-class people in their thirties and forties.

It is precisely because of these extra working-class readers that "Naoki Hansawa" can accomplish things that even "Unnatural Death" cannot do in a short period of time.

"Workplace Comics."

Hosokawa Koharu muttered, remembering what Tonoji had said to her with a smile before: "The new manga is about workplace comics."

At that time, Hosokawa Koharu still vaguely felt that Higashinoji was taking a wrong approach.

But now.

"Is it possible that Teacher Higashino expected this scenario?"

Hosokawa Koharu muttered quietly and quickly shook his head.

Although Higashinoji is very confident in himself, how can he know that what he draws will be liked by the public? Could it be that he really came from the future and took the works from the future and painted them now?

This is impossible no matter how you think about it.

Regardless of whether Higashinoji expected it or not, now that the overall situation is good, he should pursue the victory.

Thinking of this, Hosokawa Koharu took the initiative to come to the editor-in-chief Urashima and deputy editor-in-chief Furuta.

She whispered: "Chief Editor Urashima and Deputy Editor Furuta, can you give me the form that counts readers' support you mentioned earlier?"

"Oh, you're talking about that form."

Editor-in-Chief Urashima nodded without thinking: "Okay, Editor Hosokawa, you go ahead and do it."

The table they are talking about is actually about the support rate of the protagonists of the two manga magazines "Heshi" and "Chiyo".

It is a joint activity of "Heshi" and "Chiyo" that a thousand readers choose the protagonists between the two magazines "Heshi" and "Chiyo" to support.

However, this joint activity was also proactively proposed by New Iwazuki Publishing House from Chiyo.

They were very confident in the comics in their own magazine, and felt that "Heshi" could not compete at all, so they came up with the idea of ​​having their two major publishing houses publish statistical tables to readers - mainly because New Iwazuki Publishing House wanted to borrow the charts. In this way, it is intuitively shown that "Heshi" is not comparable to "Chiyo" at all.

If he refused, it would appear that he was timid, so Editor-in-Chief Urashima hesitated for a while and finally agreed.

It's just that Xinyanzhu Publishing House, which took the initiative to make this request, probably didn't expect that Cheng Yaojin like Higashi Yesi would be killed halfway.

This was originally intended to suppress the form statistics of "He Shi", but it also became a fun thing to slap them in the face.

Hosokawa Koharu discussed in a low voice with Editor-in-Chief Urashima for a while, then turned and headed to the statistics department.

Watching Hosokawa Koharu leave.

Below, some editors from the old Fuji Publishing House asked curiously: "Who is this female editor who can talk to the editor-in-chief?" It had been less than a week since they merged, and they had not yet remembered the names of each other's colleagues.

"She is Hosokawa Koharu, Higashino-sensei's editor."

An editor immediately replied.

"Teacher Higashino is the editor...? Isn't this too happy? As long as "Naoki Hansawa" can be maintained this time, she feels that her salary will be improved a lot."

The editor of Fuji Publishing who asked just now is a little envious.

They are the ones who don't know the inside story at all. If they knew that Koharu Hosokawa gave up his position as the editor-in-chief of "Abominable Cold" just to be responsible for Higashino Tsukasa's works, they would probably not understand it.

After all, the work is the property of the author, and the editor does not receive much commission from it.

Giving up a promotion for the author's work is something only a fool would do.

Of course, Hosokawa Koharu didn't know what they were thinking. She just lowered her head to complete the work she was supposed to do.

Hosokawa Koharu is working here, while Higashinoji is being criticized by Higashino Chihaya on the other side.

Yes.

As soon as Chihaya Higashino came back, she slapped Higashinoji in the face with tens of thousands of words of complaints.

And the most unacceptable thing to her was——

"Asi, you actually lied to your sister! President Asano is obviously a bad person!"

Her brother actually lied to her, her sister, for his girlfriend, and she was fooled into being fooled. This was what made her the most angry.

After hearing this, Touyesi just laughed twice and said nothing more.

Seeing his expression that showed no intention to refute, Higashino Chihaya said angrily: "Aren't you going to say something? Don't you even want to argue? Aji."

As soon as she said this, Touyoshi just continued to laugh cheerfully, and at the same time couldn't help but curse a little.

As the saying goes, don't talk to an angry girl because whatever you say is wrong.

The best policy is to wait until she calms down a bit before speaking to comfort her.

As expected, even Higashinoji didn't say anything.

Higashino Chihaya also snorted angrily: "Even if you say something, Aji, I won't be fooled again. The same trick may work the first time, but the second or third time will completely fool my sister." Being a fool."

She groaned and sat down again.

silence.

Look at each other.

The wait was almost five minutes.

Chihaya Higashino put on a pretty face and pretended not to care and said, "I'm going to cook."

The underlying meaning of these words is very clear, it is probably 'Please take care of me, take care of me. ’

It seemed that Higashino Chihaya's anger came and went even faster.

In response, Higashinoji said without hesitation: "Sister Chihaya, can you make me one too."

"cannot!"

Higashino Chihaya's face fell, she stood up and said with a groan: "Asi lied to sister, and there is no food to eat today."

Regarding her words, Higashinoji still kept his mouth shut and did not give any feedback.

Higashino Chihaya didn't continue to speak, she just stood up and walked to the stove and started cooking.

About half an hour later——

Snapped!

Higashino Chihaya put Higashinoji's dinner plate in front of him and said angrily: "Here you go!"

She was still sulking: "If I said I wouldn't cook for you, wouldn't I stop cooking for you? Asi, you are usually so smart, why didn't you ask more questions just now?"

Regarding Higashino Chihaya's words, Higashinoji just coughed twice.

If Higashino Chihaya had spoken just now when she was still sulking, he probably wouldn't even be able to see his own rice bowl, let alone the dinner plate.

Chihaya Higashino is such a little girl.

If you leave her alone for a while, she will stop being angry.

But if you forcefully explain, you will probably be torn into pieces by the angry Higashino Chihaya.

The result was just as Higashinoji expected, Chihaya Higashino really didn't lose his temper much anymore.

But after she sat down, she kept staring at Higashinoji.

Seeing Higashino finally take the food she cooked into his mouth, he casually asked: "Is it delicious?"

"Of course Chihaya-san's food is delicious." Higashinoji replied with a smile.

"Really?" Chihaya Higashino subconsciously raised her eyebrows with joy, her big peach blossom eyes shining brightly.

But soon, she found that she was still at odds with Higashinoji, her expression dropped again, and she felt a little aggrieved: "It's delicious, but you still lied to your sister."

In fact, by this time, Higashino Chihaya's anger had almost dissipated.

She didn't speak as plausibly as before, and her tone softened a lot.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Higashinoji drank the miso soup and finally spoke: "I'm not lying to you, Sister Chihaya, President Asano will not be a bad person in the subsequent plot."

"Really?" Higashino Chihaya's big eyes sparkled, and she became interested again: "Then, Aji, please talk to your sister."

Of course, Higashinoji would not refuse this request. He smiled and began to explain the subsequent plot to the other party.

I have to say that language is indeed a good art. Higashinoji just went around in circles to explain how Asano branch president values ​​his family.

Higashino Chi has fully accepted it.

Yes, there was no doubt at all.

I am still looking forward to it, thinking that the next plot of "Hansawa Naoki" will definitely be interesting.

This made Tonoji feel a little pain in his conscience and at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that the same trick works well for Chihaya Higashino not only the first time, but also the second and third time.

Higashikata couldn't help but shake his head.

But he was actually right.

President Asano really cares about his family, which is also reflected in the Japanese drama "Hansawa Naoki". It can be regarded as a small whitewash for this man who also had a downgraded ending.

But compared to this, what Tonoji cares about more is actually the number of favorable votes from readers tomorrow.

His "Naoki Hansawa" has indeed aroused a wave of praise. If nothing unexpected happens, the number one position in readers' praise votes should be stable.

But even if you are number one, there is a difference.

For example, during the serialization period of "The Ring", although it was ranked first for a long time, its number of votes basically remained between 690 and 725 votes.

In the subsequent "Unnatural Death" period, the number of positive votes remained between 790 and 810.

There is definitely a gap.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the work "Unnatural Death" is more popular among readers.

And "Naoki Hansawa".

Since it is the first episode, Higashinoji has high expectations for it.

After all, the first chapter of the comic series generally received high praise votes from readers, because it has a full fifty or sixty pages to expand on.

For "Naoki Hansawa", Higashinoji required more than 810 votes.

That is, a favorable rating of over 81%.

As long as it can surpass 810 votes, Higashinoji will consider it a success and not disgrace this phenomenal Japanese drama.

And if it is less than 810 votes, then Higashinoji will have to think carefully about his future painting situation.

“Then it’s time to witness the results.”

Whether this knife, which has been sharpened for a long time, can achieve the desired effect and cut off the head of Xinyanzhu Publishing House depends on the number of positive votes from readers tomorrow.

At the same time, New Rock Building Publishing House.

When they saw the sales figures for the latest time period, all the editors of Xinyanzhu Publishing House were stunned.

Sales of "He Shi" have increased again!

In contrast, his side is still stagnant.

Although it seems that they still have some advantage, but with the opponent's increasing speed, this advantage is of no use at all.

All the editors looked at this form as if they were back in the era dominated by "Unnatural Death".

The only difference is that "Unnatural Death" was replaced by

""Hanzawa Naoki"."

I don’t know who muttered something, but the expressions of the editor below were a little hard to accept.

After their merger, their combat power suddenly exploded, so their self-confidence reached its peak, and they felt that they could handle the comic magazine field.

But when the actual results came out, they felt a little suffocated.

Something's wrong. Something's really wrong.

"It's impossible. How can a comic reach this level of popularity in the first episode? It needs at least two or three episodes to set the stage, right?"

"Did Tomishima Publishing House spend money to buy the popularity? It makes sense when you think about it."

"Not necessarily. I have watched "Naoki Hansawa", and the quality of this work is indeed terrifying. You want to say that it bought some popularity with money. That's possible."

The editors below discussed softly. Most of them felt that Tomishima Publishing House should have spent money to buy the popularity. It was really despicable and a villain’s approach.

As for whether "Naoki Hansawa" has gained popularity.

This is something they can't say.

But—as a giant publishing house, their New Rock Publishing House has professional ethics.

I wouldn’t do such a dirty thing of buying popularity!

If you want to win, you must win with fairness!

It just so happens that tomorrow is the vote for readers' positive reviews and the support rate of the most popular protagonist.

The two publishing houses will announce the specific results at that time.

Whether it's a mule or a horse, you can just pull it out and see.

How can your "Naoki Hansawa" veto all of my classic comics?

Isn't this okay?

It’s impossible no matter how you think about it!
