Tokyo life starting with painting

Chapter 395 I am not qualified.(4000 words)

Of course Osawa Akiyoshi has investigated Hosokawa Koharu’s family situation.

After all, as Hosokawa Koharu is the editor of Higashino Tsukasa, a manga master, Osawa Akiyoshi certainly cares about it very much.

Her family lives in the Nagoya area and she is an only child.

Strictly speaking, Hosokawa Koharu is actually a fellow student of Higashiyama Studio's Chinatsu.

However, unlike Yamayama Chinatsu, her family is relatively wealthy and provided her with tuition to complete her studies at the prestigious Kyoto University Faculty of Literature.

After graduation, Hosokawa Koharu worked at a small local publishing house in Nagoya, but due to the unsatisfactory stay at the workplace, Hosokawa Koharu had always had a dream of becoming a 'famous editor'.

So she came to Tokyo instead, successfully passed the interview with Urashima Publishing House at that time, and became an editor until now.

Judging from this innocent resume, Hosokawa Koharu is definitely not a big problem, and she can be assured of the task of going to Higashino Studio to bring back some secret information from the other party's web comic platform.

but

Osawa Aikichi is still a little uneasy.

Because from his own observation - Hosokawa Koharu and Higashinoji have a very good relationship.

Yes.

The relationship is great!

According to general logic, it is actually a good thing that the editor and the author have a good relationship.

but

After Higashinoji has made it clear that he will establish a studio and possibly compete with Tomishima Publishing House,

The good relationship between Hosokawa Koharu and Higashinoji will become an obstacle.

Because Osawa Akiyoshi could not figure out how far Hosokawa Koharu would go for the club.

If Hosokawa Koharu turns against Higashino Studio, it will not be optimistic.

So that's what happened today.

Osawa Aikichi looked at Hosokawa Koharu.

I feel that the other party should be able to make a correct choice.

You must know that this is the position of editor-in-chief of "Heshi" comic magazine.

For any editor, this is a rare treat.

In addition, he, the president of the publishing house, personally persuaded me.

It can be said that the face is enough.

If Hosokawa Koharu refused, Osawa Akiyoshi would be a little surprised.

As for why Hosokawa Koharu hasn’t answered yet.

This is actually understandable.

After all, we still have to go through a psychological struggle.

Osawa Aikichi can still afford to wait for this little time.

Just when he was about to pick up the tea cup on the table and take a sip of water.

Hosokawa Koharu finally spoke as if he wanted to understand something: "I understand, President Osawa."

"Really?" Osawa Aikichi put down the tea cup and smiled, gesturing for her to answer.

She raised her head, her eyes seemed to be shining, and she said word by word: "I can't complete the task assigned by you, President Osawa, so please ask President Osawa to delegate the task to others."

That's right.

Hosokawa Koharu has made a decision.

She was unable to complete the task assigned to her by Osawa Akiyoshi.

Because for her, this was undoubtedly a betrayal of Higashinoji's trust.

She didn't want to disappoint Touyesi, and she didn't want to make her companion who had been struggling with her feel uncomfortable.

Many people know that Hosokawa Koharu has been working hard to achieve the title of ‘Female Editor’.

Because most editors working at publishing houses are men, there are only a handful of female editors who can produce outstanding work.

Not to mention the "female editor" who is known throughout the industry.

From "The Ring" to "The Lonely Gourmet", from "The Winner Is Justice" to the national hit "Unnatural Death" and now to "Hansawa Naoki".

The works that Higashinoji produced have never disappointed her once.

With the help of Higashinoji, she truly felt that her goal of becoming a "female editor" was not far away.

The name "Hosokawa Koharu" who frequently appears in Higashinoji's works as editor has also made many people know her.

Some people really started to call her by the title of "famous editor" - famous editor Hosokawa Koharu.

To be honest, when hearing this title, Hosokawa Koharu's first reaction was not to roll around with joy, but inexplicable shame.

But after the shame, Hosokawa Koharu would happily look at the title of 'famous editor' and laugh.

His efforts and those of Tonoji were not in vain.

Higashinoji worked hard to draw comics, and he went to help him negotiate various matters.

Adaptation of Japanese drama, rejection of interview program, meeting with investors

These things can be said to have caused her to break her legs.

But as a result, Higashino devoted himself to painting, and the quality of his works became increasingly higher.

Higashinoji is no longer a friend.

He is now considered his companion.

Companions who strive to move forward together!

So she can't betray Higashinoji! You cannot betray your companions!

After thinking about this clearly, Hosokawa Koharu felt a sense of relief.

She spoke her answer.

On the other side, Osawa Aikichi heard Hosokawa Koharu's answer. He frowned at first, then raised his head in disbelief and looked at her carefully.

"Editor Hosokawa, this is a decision related to your future. It's better to make your decision more carefully."

He meant to persuade, and he hinted at the "prospect".

But Osawa Aikichi did not expect that the smart-looking Hosokawa Koharu smiled and shook his head: "President Osawa, I have already thought about it, and this is my decision. I am not qualified for this task, I hope you Choose someone else to go to Higashino Studio.”

Pick someone else to go to Higashino Studio?

Of course Osawa Aikichi has thought about this.

But Higashinoji is no fool.

It's impossible for the other party to trust anyone other than Hosokawa Koharu, that's for sure.

Osawa Aikichi estimates that he only needs to send people except Hosokawa Koharu.

There is a high probability that Higashinoji will assign him to a casual position and will not let him come into contact with matters related to Higashino Comics Platform.

Osawa Aikichi shook his head.

This is not good.

He didn't think much about it, and said very politely: "I still hope that Editor Hosokawa can think about it carefully. I will not change the personnel notice. Editor Hosokawa, you will still go to Higashino Studio as planned."

Yes.

Osawa Akiyoshi did not get angry, nor did his expression suddenly change.

He still kept smiling and didn't seem to care that Hosokawa Koharu, the small editorial team leader, had just rejected his proposal.

Even Hosokawa Koharu was a little confused by Osawa Aikichi's attitude.

I have to say that the other party is indeed an outstanding entrepreneur.

Speaking of which, I didn't even plan to quarrel with her as a little editor.

Even Hosokawa Koharu couldn't say any more words of rejection.

She nodded: "I understand, then I'll go back and pack my things now, and head to Dongye Studio to work tomorrow."

Hosokawa Koharu bowed to Osawa Aikichi, then turned and left.

After Hosokawa Koharu completely left the room, Osawa Aikichi breathed out and frowned.

He really couldn't accept it.

Hosokawa Koharu really rejected the request of him, the president of Tomishima Publishing House, just because of Tonoji.

You must know that you are her immediate boss!

Apart from anything else, Osawa Aikichi admired Hosokawa Koharu just for his courage.

But appreciation is appreciation.

Osawa Aikichi still has some regrets about Hosokawa Koharu's decision.

It's a pity indeed.

Hosokawa Koharu's behavior was obviously that his elbow was turned outward.

It is impossible for Osawa Akiyoshi to really allow her to continue to hold the position at Tomishima Publishing House.

In other words, it is very likely that from now on, Koharu Hosokawa will only be able to sit in the position of the editorial team leader until death, or even be more than just the editorial team leader.

Whether he can continue to stay in the editorial department of "He Shi" is another matter.

In any case, editors like Hosokawa Koharu and Tomishima Publishing House have a great business and are not lacking in them.

Osawa Aikichi secretly made a decision in his heart.

On the other side, Tonoji was a little happy to receive the news that Hosokawa Koharu came to work at Tono Studio.

Knew it.

On the surface, Osawa Aikichi still preferred to maintain a cooperative relationship with them and sent Hosokawa Koharu over.

As for secretly, Osawa Aikichi is still someone who cannot be trusted.

Higashikata still maintains an attitude of having to guard against it.

As for now?

Don't worry about that now.

Now that Koharu Hosokawa has come to work at Higashino Studio, Higashinoji can start operating the Higashino manga platform with peace of mind!

He made a decisive decision.

This made Hosokawa Koharu, who had just moved here and was looking here and there, a little confused.

no

Teacher Higashino, my ass is not yet warm, I am not familiar with the workplace, and I don’t even know who my subordinates are.

Why did you suddenly announce the trial operation?

Just when she was confused, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in!" Hosokawa Koharu quickly put her mood in order, raised her head and said hello.

After getting her permission, the door was pushed open and a middle-aged man walked into the office.

After seeing the other person's appearance clearly, Hosokawa Koharu was a little surprised and said: "Are you Seo, the editor-in-chief of Iwatsu Publishing House?"

As the editor of Tomishima Publishing House, of course she knew Seo Daigo before her.

Isn't this the editor-in-chief of Yanzhu Publishing House?

This is a real boss in the workplace. Even if she sees the other person, she will bow her head respectfully and call her the editor-in-chief.

But what surprised Hosokawa Koharu was that Seo Daigo just smiled kindly when he heard her address: "You don't have to be so polite, Editor-in-Chief Hosokawa. And I am now the executive planner of Higashino Studio's pixiv website. I am no longer the original one." Editor-in-Chief."

"Well"

Hearing Seo Daigo say "Hosokawa Chief Editor", Hosokawa Koharu really felt relaxed.

Is this what it feels like to be called editor-in-chief?

Hosokawa Koharu has always expressed doubts about the idea that changing one's title can change one's mood.

But today she discovered——

It really is!

The title of editor-in-chief made her feel very good.

However, Seo Daigo was still her senior. She didn't really take the other person's words of "Don't be so polite" to heart, but asked curiously: "What's the matter with Seo's plan?"

"It's about the work explanation."

Seo Daigo smiled and called five or six people at the same time: "These are the operating staff of station p. Teacher Higashino asked them to come over to assist editor-in-chief Hosokawa. At the same time, there are work matters."

This time Seo Daigo came here mainly to explain to Hosokawa Koharu about the operation and policies of the Higashino manga website.

In fact, there is no difference between the operation policies of the Higashino Comics website and the previous comics websites in Japan and China.

Probably the first three or four chapters of each comic are free, and after the fifth or sixth chapter, it enters the VIP charging stage——

When they heard Higashinoji proposed this kind of operation method, both Seo Daigo and Yano Ryuichi were shocked.

Because they never thought that there is such a way to divide a comic into several small paragraphs for sale.

Seo Daigo's knowledge increased and he felt that Higashinoji's genius idea was indeed different from ordinary people.

At least he would definitely not be able to come up with such a wicked but innovative method.

And Higashinoji just smiled when he heard Seo Daigo's words - what kind of wild idea is this?

Isn’t it just a VIP payment system?

In fact, this operating model was already a well-worn operating routine on the Internet in Japan or China in later generations.

You have never seen the ten consecutive draws in mobile games in the future, or the kind of krypton gold activities that give you XXX diamonds and XXX coins for the first time.

Only then will you know what it means to be immoral and what it means to attract money.

Compared with these bizarre tricks, Higashinoji's method is already considered a very conscientious method.

But compared to Higashinoji, a 'future man', Hosokawa Koharu was slightly shocked.

As a professional editor, of course she can understand the potential of Higashinoji's VIP payment system.

Not just comics.

Even some video websites and e-book websites can use this VIP payment system.

This really gave her a good start.

Hosokawa Koharu couldn't help but murmur.

She originally thought that she wouldn't be able to learn anything new when she came here, and all the 'stealing experiences' that Osawa Akiyoshi mentioned were all figments of his imagination.

The result was unexpected.

Is there really something new?

She nodded repeatedly, took notes, and showed that she understood, and then followed Daigo Seo to learn how to operate the backend of the Higashino manga website.

After going back and forth like this, I followed Seo Daigo to visit the internal facilities of Higashino Studio.

Hosokawa Koharu was finally relieved.

According to Seo Daigo's words, she actually doesn't have to do much at ordinary times. She mainly reviews the manga manuscripts uploaded from the original section of Higashino Comics - most of them are from the works of illustrators on the p station.

If there was a comic worth adopting, it was up to her to sign the contract with the author.

This happened to be her old job as an editor.

As long as there are not too many uploads every day, or the quality is particularly excellent

Then it is definitely not particularly difficult for Hosokawa Koharu to realize it.

"Don't underestimate me, an editor from Tomishima Publishing House!"

Hosokawa Koharu mustered up her energy and decided to devote herself to this job.

Then

She realized something was wrong.

this.

The quantity seems a bit high?

And why are these people still good at painting?

not bad?
