My Cartoonist Strategy

Murakami Toro came to the hotel where Shen Xin was at around 7:40 pm, but it was not until 7:50 that the front desk staff contacted Shen Xin.

After receiving the call, Wang Wenhong notified Yan Fei at the restaurant to let the chef prepare the dishes ordered in advance, and then went to the restaurant on the first floor with Shen Xin and Xi Muhan.

Along with Murakami Tou, there was also the name of the head of the editorial board of "Leo Leap", Qian Xiao, who was fanned by Shen Xin after "Soul of Chess", but he had never seen Shen Xin.

After learning that Murakami and Shen Xin met this time, Kotani took the initiative to come along without thinking.

Shen Xin is also a best-selling cartoonist in District 11. Although he rarely comes to District 11, Kotani has seen his promotional photos.

When I saw Shen Xin, Xiao Gu was also shocked. Shen Xin was younger than the one in the photo.

"Teacher Shen, I haven't seen you for a long time." Murakami saw Shen Xin coming in and bowed slightly.

When he was discussing the introduction of "Soul of Chess", he once came to the 11th district, and at that time, he had a close relationship with Shen Xin.

After Yan Fei translated, Shen Xin nodded his head deeply, "I haven't seen you for a long time, two teachers, sit first?"

The five people sat down first, and Wang Wenhong ordered the waiter to serve the meals.

Yan Fei ordered Western food. The overall dining time will be longer. You can also take advantage of this time to talk about things.

In fact, with the exception of Xi Muhan, the other three people had contact with Murakami, and after a short greeting, both parties quickly entered the subject.

"Half a year ago, I was not able to attend the teacher's wedding. I'm so sorry. At that time, when I was on a business trip and learned about this, the wedding was already over." Speaking of this, Murakami took out an envelope from his pocket , And passed it on to Yan Fei, "My personal heart, please don't refuse."

Wang Wenhong lowered his head and listened to Murakami's words.

He is also studying Japanese in private, but it is certainly not as skilled as Yan Fei, so the person who is the interpreter this time is still Yan Fei.

Shen Xin nodded slightly, and then Yan Fei took the envelope, and then handed it over to Xi Muhan.

Murakami saw Xi Muhan accept it and knew that it had been revealed. He asked, "Ms. Shen, how long have you been in District 11?"

"About three or four days? Right? I have been touring around Tokyo before. I have only come to Tokyo in the last two days." Shen Xin answered.

"It turns out this way." Murakami nodded. "Actually, Mr. Shen can tell us that everyone is a friend."

"Because I am a friend, I dare not trouble the editor in chief of Murakami. I also know how busy the editor's work is. Some editors even have to live in a cartoonist's studio for work. I can't mess up the editors anymore." Shen Xin quickly waved his hand.

"Then it depends on who, if it is Teacher Shen, we will definitely not have trouble." Murakami also smiled slightly.

Xiao Gu touched the scum on his chin and aimed at Shen Xin.

In fact, he had many words to ask Shen Xin, but because Murakami was around, he couldn't say much.

After briefly chatting with Murakami, Shen Xin picked up his glass. "The two teachers, the dishes are cold, let's take a sip first?"

Murakami Toya and Kotani also raised their glasses and touched the glass with the person sitting there.

Shen Xin drank it all, and Wang Wenhong filled the wine again.

"By the way, the editor in chief of Murakami, came to me this time. Is there anything wrong?" Shen Xin saw Murakami just put a snail in his mouth and asked.

Murakami said heartily that it was time to come.

"Mr. Shen's last book "DN", we actually have the opportunity to win, but the comic book movement is really too fast, let us miss a chance to cooperate, it is a big pity." Murakami through the napkin lightly After rubbing his lips, he continued, "I only heard about the news that Teacher Shen came to Tokyo today, and I immediately contacted the teacher, just for one thing, can the teacher's new work be serialized in "Leo Leap"?"

Open to the point, there is no muddy water.

Shen Xin watched Murakami through, and when he saw him looking at him, he laughed softly.

"Editor, you are too anxious." Shen Xin sat down, "I haven't returned to Hongchuan now, and even if there is a new series, I will have to prepare for a period of time, and the middle of next year as soon as possible. Now ask me this It is indeed too early."

Murakami heard Shen Xin's words, and his heart moved.

The gentleman of the mountain shore has already released the wind, and there will be no new work next year, at most one or two short stories.

For best-selling authors, whether they are Shanren Liangren or Shen Xin, they actually earn enough money to spend the rest of their lives. As long as the single book has been sold, they will always have a profit.

Therefore, after becoming famous, many cartoonists will choose a simple path, either, after four or five years, and then consider new works, or as the original painter of the game company.

Shen Xin said that new works will come out next year, and this speed is already very fast.

Last time, he missed "DN" because Shen Xin's new book was serialized too quickly. This time, no matter what, he couldn't make such a serious mistake.

"Mr. Shen, it's not too early. Last time I missed "DN", I knew exactly." Murakami clapped her hands on the table with a serious look. "This time, you must not let that happen again."

Otani was stunned. He hadn't seen Murakami so persistent in a long time, even with anxiety in his tone, but he could understand Murakami's thoughts when he thought that the current situation of "Young Leap" fell below 4 million copies.

The volumes of "Chess Soul" and "Steel Refining" serialized on "Young Leap" have both broken through millions of volumes. In the comic book series "DN", the single-line volume has also exceeded 900,000 volumes.

Even in "Leap", cartoonists who can have such achievements are counted as counted as closed or closed.

Shen Xin's appeal in the comics market in the 11th district is no longer lost to Shanan Liangren.

"This thing... Murakami's editor-in-chief is still better connected with "ComicFuture"." Shen Xin smiled.

"No." Murakami shook his head firmly, his eyes fixed. "I want the teacher's lower works to sign a contract with "Leap"."

If it is introduced, "Leopard Leap" will have to pay an additional amount of money to "ComicFuture", and also to publish the publication of Shen Xin's comics, which is not very cost-effective for "Leopard Leap".

"This..."

After hearing Yan Fei's translation, Shen Xin froze for a moment, then fell into long thinking.

Otani suddenly felt nervous.

For most cartoonists, it is absolutely rare to be able to serialize in "Leap".

Murakami personally invited to explain that as long as the quality of Shen Xin’s future works is acceptable, the resources invested by the magazine in Shen Xin’s new works will definitely far exceed that of other comics-Tamagawa Haruka’s "The Strongest Pitcher".

So... quickly agree?

Xiao Gu stared at Shen Xin, but saw Shen Xin say a few words to Yan Fei again.

After Yan Fei nodded, she translated Shen Xin's words into Japanese.

"It's great to be approved by the editor-in-chief, but I think, I...maybe refused."

Murakami, who was waiting for Shen Xin to answer, suddenly changed his face after hearing this sentence.

Kotani was also surprised, and said in a silent voice: "Why? Teacher, can you give a reason? Which point of "Junior Leap" doesn't work?"

"Junior Leap" is the best platform in the 11th district, so the treatment for cartoonists is also very good, but the conditions I put forward, "Junior Leap" may not agree. Instead of this, it is better to stop." Shen Xin made an explanation.

Murakami and Kotani have complicated looks, but they are curious about what conditions Shen Xin will have.
