Tokyo life starting with painting

Chapter 402 Don’t you want me, Master? (4100 words)

Of course, Higashinoji never thought that he could really knock down Shifu Kawanishi through this method.

After all, freedom of speech in Japan is still very broad.

Although Kawanishi Shifu has made some personal attacks on himself in some newspapers and magazines, calling himself a fool, as long as Kawanishi Shifu is prepared, such a prosecution should not be successful.

Even though Higashinoji knew this, he still wanted to sue Shifu Kawanishi.

Even if the opponent cannot be knocked down directly, Higashino Studio's mere prosecution is enough to make the opponent busy and drink a pot.

This can be considered a settlement.

And what makes these critics, newspaper and magazine writers most uncomfortable is not the warning message from Higashino Studio.

Yes.

It's just a little reminder and warning, and the other party won't really cause harm to their interests by just talking about it.

As long as they don't touch the cake on top of their hands, this matter doesn't mean anything at all.

Therefore, what really makes them feel uncomfortable is that Higashino Comics miraculously climbed out of the mud pit.

You must know that they have been predicting that Tono Comics will decline all the way and eventually end in failure.

As a result, who would have thought that the situation at Higashino Comics would suddenly change.

Not only did he wipe out the previous decline, but he also slapped them in the face.

This was simply too much for them to accept.

Because as experts in this field, they are the ones who pay the most attention to credibility. Similarly, they are also the ones who cherish their feathers the most.

After all, this is how they make a living.

Even if Tono Manga has been languishing this time, they have been holding it in for a long time.

After waiting for more than a week, it was confirmed that Dongye Studio had no means of turning the situation around.

Only then did he take the initiative to scold Dongye Studio.

As a result, they had just said that Tono Comics was no longer viable and Tono Studio was going to close down. Before they even said it for a long time, these inferences were overturned by the outstanding performance of Tono Comics.

They really wanted to curse.

In particular, this guy Higashinoji has been holding back his bad feelings. He waited until the situation of Higashino Comics stabilized before he started to show off his sword.

If Higashinoji couldn't hold back the knife from the beginning.

They could still do something about it at that time, because they hadn't made those coffin-breaking remarks like "Higashino Manga will definitely die" at that time.

But Higashino wanted to wait until the situation was completely stable. At this time, they had said everything they needed to say and scolded them all.

Naturally, I can't withdraw my preface with just a few words like before.

These Internet keyboard warriors and newspaper and magazine critics are now in a dilemma. They are really scolding each other, thinking that Higashinoji is really a sinister villain.

They have obviously forgotten that they stabbed Higashino in the back just to gain popularity from Higashino Comics and Higashino Studio.

Now they are on fire everywhere, so to speak.

Faced with this situation, there was only one thing they could do.

We can only keep our tail between our legs for the time being, and wait until the storm above our heads passes, or until the current prosperity of Higashino Comics is just a short-lived flash in the pan.

This is also something that can't be helped.

After all, no one expected

Higashino Comics actually really got back on its feet and wiped out the decline

This ‘no one expected’ naturally included Osawa Akiyoshi, the president of Tomishima Publishing House.

When he got the news, Osawa Aikichi also raised his head in surprise.

He has always believed that Higashino comics can become one of the top large-scale websites in Japan with Higashino's unconstrained ideas like the pixiv website.

But due to the poor management of Dongye Comics.

Although Osawa Aikichi paid attention to it for more than a week, he lost interest after finding that the business situation did not improve.

After all, Tomshima Publishing House usually has to deal with more things than less.

As the president of Tomishima Publishing House, he naturally cannot always worry about Higashino Comics, which is in poor operating condition.

So long ago, he never asked about the situation of Dongye comics.

At this time, he would of course be surprised by the sudden news that Higashino Manga's popularity was soaring.

Especially when he saw that the number of user registrations of Dongye Comics was basically stable at 2,600 per day, he let out a heavy breath.

This is true

Osawa Aikichi felt that he had been deceived by Higashinoji.

During the first week before.

The average number of user registrations of 2,600 is not a small number, and it cannot be a sudden surge no matter how you think about it.

Tonoji must have concealed the number from him.

He must have been deceived by Higashinoji.

Higashikata Hidden is really deep.

Osawa Aikichi thought for a while and called Higashinoji.

Higashinoji on the other side just picked up the phone.

Here, Osawa Akiyoshi smiled and took the initiative to tease: "Teacher Higashino, you are hiding it too deeply, right? If the data hadn't been released today, I wouldn't have known the specific situation at Higashino Studio. .”

Osawa Akiyoshi's words were full of complaints, as if he was blaming Higashino for hiding something from him.

But Higashinoji could tell that the other party just wanted to come and pry into his words and get the specific operating conditions of Higashino Comics from him.

This made Tonoji sigh a little.

This guy is indeed an old fox.

Osawa Akiyoshi's purpose in calling him to inquire was nothing more than one.

Get the operating status of Tono Comics from Tono Tsukasa.

This will determine whether Tomishima Publishing House should also learn from Higashino Comics and build a "Tomishima Comics" website.

This is just a message I just received.

Osawa Akiyoshi already wanted to seize the opportunity.

Isn't this action too fast?

Thinking of this, Higashino also pinched his chin. After thinking about it for a while, he finally decided to confess honestly.

Osawa Akiyoshi is not the kind of fool who is easily fooled. He cannot hide it with lies, let alone

Higashinoji had no intention of hiding Osawa Aikichi from the beginning.

All the data he provided to Osawa Aikichi at the beginning were real data.

It's just that the other party's expectations for Higashino Comics were too high from the beginning, but Higashino Comics did not meet the other party's expectations.

To be honest, this surprised Tonoji.

Many people in the outside world think that Higashino Comics is about to end. The reason why Higashinoji has confidence in Higashino Comics is because he has the experience of later generations.

But Akiyoshi Osawa is completely different. As an entrepreneur in 2005.

I have to say that this forward-looking vision is indeed very powerful. No wonder the other party can become the president of Tomshima Publishing House.

With this in mind, Higashino simply told Osawa Akiyoshi about the data of Higashino Comics.

And why the data of Higashino Comics suddenly nearly doubled? Higashinoji also asked Yano Ryuichi and others to investigate this clearly.

In fact, it is just a period of word-of-mouth fermentation.

Higashino Comics has a very good reputation and evaluation on the Internet. The reason why it has not been popular is because this era is not like the era of information explosion in 2020, where anything that happens can be posted on WeChat, Twitter, LINE, etc. Get the message on the instant chat software.

After a period of word-of-mouth fermentation, Higashino Comics is finally on the right track.

After all, it is the same as the pixiv website.

Higashino Comics is also the only comics website with formal channels in Japan.

Tomishima Publishing House and Iwazuki Publishing House have not yet had time to come to an end.

It's a good time for Higashino Comics to expand.

But of course Higashinoji would not tell Osawa Aikichi these thoughts.

The most he could do was tell the other party about the recent development of Higashino Comics, and added with a smile: "Higashino Comics is finally on the right track now, but I don't have any plans to expand here yet, and I still have to wait until the situation stabilizes before considering it. "

And his words were also recognized by Osawa Aikichi.

The bigger the president of a company, the more difficult it is to open up other industries. After all, one move can affect the whole body.

Although Osawa Akiyoshi saw the potential of Higashino Comics, this was not enough for him to propose a plan to establish the "Tomshima Comics" website at Tomishima Publishing House.

So at this time, he must wait to see Dongye Comics truly stabilized before considering whether to make these risky decisions.

Here we have to mention the benefits of a small studio like Higashino Studio.

Although it is only a small organization, its publicity and network resources are much less than those of other large organizations outside.

But it excels in communication efficiency and decision-making efficiency - all handled by Higashinoji.

Unlike Akiyoshi Osawa, even if he has an idea, he still has to hold a board meeting, discuss it in categories, and then do market research and do other miscellaneous things.

"Then I'll wait and see what Higashino's comics will do next, Mr. Higashino."

Over there, Osawa Akiyoshi temporarily suppressed his thoughts about forming "Tomijima Comics", said with a smile, and hung up the phone.

And this also made Higashino breathe a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, Osawa Aikichi didn't fall out immediately."

Higashikata shook his head.

At present, Higashino Comics is still too dependent on the original comics provided by Tomishima Publishing House, and the other party has not turned away and gone it alone, which undoubtedly makes Higashinoji feel a lot more relaxed.

At least it bought a lot of time for the development of Dongye comics.

But to be honest, even if Osawa Akiyoshi turns his back, Higashinoji is confident that he can stabilize the development of Higashino Comics as a whole.

Just like many people only know Mount Everest because it is the world's highest peak and is representative, the nature of Higashino's comics is similar.

It is Japan's first cartoon website with a surname and a certain representativeness.

As long as comics websites are mentioned, people will naturally think of Tono Comics. Therefore, Tono Comics only needs to maintain a high level of service, and it will be very difficult for latecomers to surpass it.

Higashino thought about it, then picked up the data sheet next to him and took a sip of water with comfort.

If this momentum continues, Higashino Comics will not say that it will kill people all over the world, but it will definitely not be a big problem in the small circle of Japan.

Dongye Comics user registration is finally stable.

Then the next question is the original area of ​​​​Higashino Comics.

As mentioned before, Higashinoji wants to find an author who can serialize on the p station and serialize on the website.

If it is successful, we will then contact the printing house and start physical sales according to Japan's current comic book sales model.

According to Hosokawa Koharu, she has indeed found four good seedlings.

Now she is in negotiations with these four authors.

But she has only made an appointment to meet with one author so far.

It seems that because the other three people are not locals in Tokyo, it will take some time to rush over to sign the contract.

It seems that there is still a long way to go to achieve the goal of stimulating Tono comics through the original area.

As for Higashino Tsukasa’s personal end, it will be serialized in Higashino Comics

This is indeed a solution.

But he still has "Naoki Hansawa" serialized, and "The Lonely Gourmet" is also serialized in Tomishima Publishing's "Aoba" magazine

This double format is a bit difficult.

Next time come to Higashino Comics

This is too difficult.

Although the system gave Higashinoji a good physique, it was not an Iron Man physique.

In the third episode, he really looked like an alien.

Considering this, Higashinoji naturally thought of Nakano Arisaki.

It has been more than a month since this little girl joined Dongye Studio.

I have also been practicing for more than a month.

The last time I saw her, she was already able to draw the storyboards she wanted very skillfully, and she also corrected a lot of minor flaws.

His progress was so fast that even Higashinoji, who always treated his apprentices strictly, couldn't help but nod.

Nakano Arisa is indeed very talented in painting.

He just showed the other party how to draw comics several times, and the other party learned a lot of new things.

“It feels like it’s time for her to start submitting articles.”

Tonoji touched his chin and called in Nakano Arisa who was immersed in painting.

"Master!" As soon as he saw Higashinoji, Nakano Arisa trotted up to him happily.

Over the past month, her attitude towards Higashinoji has obviously improved a lot.

If I say that I still respect Higashinoji very much for the sake of kindness at the beginning.

So now she not only respects him, she even admires this boy who is only three years older than herself.

Because the master is really awesome!

Not only can he easily point out the mistakes in her paintings, he can even demonstrate the correct painting method on the spot without having to type a draft! Just start painting!

This ability made her very envious - it was so powerful! No wonder the master is so famous!

Although the master scolded her often, and he was very fierce when he scolded her.

But Nakano Arisa became happier the more he was scolded.

Because the harder the master scolds, the more it means that the master is paying attention to what she is practicing.

If one day the other party doesn't even bother to scold him, doesn't it mean that the other party is desperate for him?

So sometimes when Higashino scolded her, she still giggled.

This made Higashinoji baffled - he had scolded Chinatsu Yamayama to tears, so why did Arisa Nakano become more energetic the more he scolded her?

Do you have any tendency?

Don’t talk too much.

As soon as Tonoji saw Nakano Arisa, he simply spoke: "Arisa, it's almost time for you to submit your article."

But what Touyesi didn't expect was that he would speak like this.

Over there, Nakano Arisaki's cheerful expression suddenly changed.

Her face became aggrieved, and her originally cheerful voice was somewhat distorted: "Master, don't you want me to be your apprentice?"

ah?

Hearing her question, Higashikata was stunned.

What is this?

Thanks to Bo Gong, Feng Qi Yun Yong Yi Nian, and my family in the Northeast for the reward! Thank you so much!
