Chapter 336. Not as good as Tonoji's signature! (8000 words)(1/2)
This is the editor-in-chief from the sky.
You should know that this is the editor-in-chief of "Chione".
The editor-in-chief of Seo must be outstanding if he can become the new editor-in-chief of Shinawakzu Publishing House.
Even if the editor-in-chief Seo finally resigns, it is the talent that Higashinoji needs at present.
Yes.
Although I want to create a reading platform on the Internet, the editor-in-chief and editor are all necessary.
It’s impossible for him to rely on the single assistance of Toshima Publishing House to maintain the entire comic reading platform, right?
By then, when the online platform emerges, this kind of comic reading platform will definitely be eaten by Toshima Publishing House or Xinyanzhu Publishing House.
Higashinoshi doesn't think capitalists will say anything.
Therefore, the online platform created by Higashinoji must require a certain ability to produce comics.
For this reason, whether it is an illustration exchange website similar to Pixiv or an online comic reading platform... this requires editor-in-chief, review or editor of these things.
But...
In Japan, talents like these in the editorial industry are basically monopolized by publishing houses... Most of the talents who have editing volunteers want to work in large publishing houses.
So this group of people is not easy to find... Even if Higashinoji asked Higashino Ryuichi from Higashino Studio to pay attention, it is still difficult to find talents in this area.
And now the editor-in-chief of Seo is like being delivered to the door... If Higashinoji doesn't take the initiative to take it down, that would be a bit stupid.
Moreover, people in the editorial industry like Seo, must know many editorial colleagues... He may be able to raise the first batch of editorial teams belonging to Higashinoji.
Only a fool will let go of this opportunity!
Thinking of this, Higashinoji walked directly to the editor Nozawa who was still chatting in a low voice just now, and greeted the two editors with a smile:
"Hello, editor Nozawa and editor Takasaka."
As a regular customer of Toshima Publishing House, he certainly knows most editors.
Editor Nozawa and Editor Takasaka who were still talking just now obviously have a lot of impression on Higashinoji.
Especially editor Nozawa, his lazy sitting posture just now became extremely straight - you should know that Higashinoji in front of him is a pillar of the comics department of Tomoji Publishing House.
If there were no Higashinoji, their group of editors from the comics department might have been scolded every day like editors from the literature department next door.
The literature department of Toshima Publishing House has not been able to compete for the literature department of Xinyanzuki Publishing House for a long time, so it has been scolded. It usually doesn’t even dare to straighten its back. The reason is that it lacks a pillar author like Higashinoji.
So both Nozawa and Takasaka editors respect Higashinoji: "Teacher Higashino, are you here to submit the manuscript? Do you need us to contact the team leader Hosokawa?"
"No need to be so troublesome. I just want to ask the two editors about something...it's the situation of editor-in-chief Seo..."
Higashinoji waved his hand and said his purpose with a smile.
It turns out that's the matter.
Although I don’t know what the purpose of Higashinoji’s editor-in-chief’s editor-in-chief, Nozawa and Takasaka did not hide what they knew and told Higashinoji everything they knew.
Of course, they both played a trick here.
The attitude of speaking is rather formulaic. He does not praise the editor-in-chief Seo as he did just now, but just seeks truth from facts.
They can't brag about other editors in front of their own pillar authors, right?
"So that's the case." Higashinoji quickly got a rough idea of the situation of the editor-in-chief of Seo, which was a bit funny.
I have to say that this editor-in-chief Seo is indeed very unlucky.
This is not only because he met Higashinoji and the invincible "Hanzawa Naoki", but also because he met authors like Horikoshi Hanhei.
In fact, his editor-in-chief position is very stable.
But it was because of the scandal of "cement corpse throwing case" that he had been promoting, and the editorial department came forward to apologize...
And because Horikoshi Hamanhei was reluctant to express his apology to the people, he had to stop the other party's serialization and terminate the cooperation...
This is equivalent to the author of the pillar that the editor-in-chief Seo has been training, which also greatly weakened the influence of the "Chione" comic magazine of Shinawakzu Publishing House.
After all, a comic magazine lost its pillar author, just like losing the flowers that attracted bees to pick... Although the rhizomes are still there, they still have a great impact on pollination.
Originally, Chiyo could not compete with Kazuo, and it was even worse after termination of its cooperative relationship with Horikoshi Hanhei.
As the main decision-maker at that time, Editor-in-Chief Seo must have taken the blame... Although most of the blame was a mess that Horikoshi Hanhei gave him.
In addition, after the merger of the two major publishing houses of Yakao and Mozhu, the upper-level directors also had faction disputes. His editor-in-chief was unstable, so naturally someone set his sights on him and wanted to put people from his faction in this position.
Therefore, Higashinoji lamented that he was extremely unlucky.
This is simply an internal and external trouble. The modern version of "Hanzawa Naoki"... No, his current situation may be more difficult than Hanzawa Naoki.
After all, there is also a comic author, "Tainoji", who cannot defeat it.
But from Higashinoji's personal perspective...
Higashinoji wishes that the bigger he will take the blame, the better. It would be better that the editor-in-chief Seo is forced to resign and leave the streets now.
This way he will be better off poaching.
But at most, this is just thinking about it.
The annual salary of Chief Seo is at least 18 million yen.
As the editor-in-chief of a giant publishing house, he couldn't have no deposits.
Higashinoji temporarily reconciled his thoughts, but he did not forget to send a text message to Yano Ryu from Higashino Studio, asking him to pay attention to the updates of the editor-in-chief of Shin Iwatsuki Publishing House.
If the other party really leaves, don't hesitate and just take action to poach the editor-in-chief Seo.
Thinking of this, Higashinoji greeted the two editors and looked for Koharu of Hosokawa.
This time he came here mainly to submit the original manuscript of "Hanzawa Naoki", and of course he did not forget this.
That is, when Higashinoji submitted the original manuscript, today's editor-in-chief Seo was also staring at the comic magazines under Shinawakzuki Publishing House, hoping to find a newcomer with outstanding data from it, and upgrade it to the "Chioni" comic magazine and promote it as a new pillar author.
but...
“It’s certainly not that easy to find.”
Editor-in-chief Seo retracted his gaze.
Even if he doesn't compare with Higashinoji's "Hanzawa Naoki", he can't find a manga that can hold on to the current scenes of "Chione".
and...
The editor-in-chief Seo seemed to have thought of something and sighed deeply again.
He has been frequently called to the meeting by the board of directors in recent days, and most of the issues he discussed are irrelevant minor issues.
At the same time, the editor-in-chief Seo also discovered that his deputy editor-in-chief, that is, the editor of the faction of Iwakatsu Publishing House, was familiar with the position of editor-in-chief while he was away - after all, the editor-in-chief was not present at the meeting, and the only one who was in charge of the overall situation was the deputy editor-in-chief.
This change also made Editor-in-Chief Seo notice.
He is afraid that he is the editor-in-chief and cannot be saved.
Similarly, the actions of Xinyanchi Press, who wanted to sharpen his knife quickly, also made Editor-in-Chief Seo a little disappointed.
Of course, he knew that the editor-in-chief who could not create benefits had no effect on Xinyanzhu Publishing House, and being forced to "resign from blame" was also a very normal thing in the workplace.
But you should still feel disappointed. After all, people are still emotional animals.
"It seems that I can't find the works of Taizhuzi before leaving office." Editor-in-chief Seo seemed a little helpless.
This feeling of being alone is really uncomfortable.
Even if the editors who had good personal relationships with him were going around the way when they saw him, they were afraid that the new editor-in-chief would settle the score.
Let's be honest.
What did he do wrong with Seo Dago?
If he hadn't always stabilized the morale of the Chiyo, the Chiyo would have long since become a mess.
Instead, he wanted to see how the newly appointed editor-in-chief would deal with such a mess.
Thinking of this, Seo Daigo was so angry that he hummed twice.
In this way, until after get off work, the editor-in-chief Seo still gained nothing.
There was nothing he could do, so he could only walk home.
After all, although he is frustrated in the workplace, he can still find some warmth at home.
His daughter Shizuru Seo is in the second grade of high school this year. She is very obedient and well-behaved. She usually goes home to cook for him after class and waits until he gets off work.
As for Seo Daigo's wife... she died of illness a few years ago... Now he and his daughter depend on each other for life.
As the saying goes, the daughter is the father's little cotton-padded jacket. Seo Shizuru is so worry-free, which makes Seo Daigo feel very relieved.
He took out the key, opened the door and walked directly to the living room, and then found that Seo Shizuru was reading a comic magazine in his arms.
When he saw his father coming back, Seo Shiruo, who had short hair, immediately turned his head and said hello: "Welcome back, dad."
"Yeah." Seo Daigo walked to the kitchen and poured himself a glass of water. While drinking water, he asked: "What comics and magazine are you reading? Is it "Chione" by our Iwatsuki Publishing House?"
"Ah? No." Seoshi lingered in her head and said with some disgust:
To be continued...
