Chapter 1204 Tachibana’s pressure

Tachibana Shen stayed up all night, but early the next morning, he found Toru Murakami and explained the situation to him.

“What are you going to do?” Murakami sat in the boss chair and looked at Tachibana on the sofa.

“What else can I do? The contract has already been signed, so I can’t break the contract?” Tachibana looked at Toru Murakami helplessly.

Murakami knew that he was complaining about himself and was not angry, and asked, “If you were me, what would you do?”

Gen Tachibana snorted without answering.

He thought about this problem all night.

If it were him, the choice would be the same as Toru Murakami. After all, the charm of “;DUNK” is too great.

“I chatted with Wang Wenhong yesterday, and he said that Mr. Shen’s Zhou Geng work will probably be delayed for two to three years, but in the next few months, there will be a monthly comic coming out… What do you think?”

“Monthly change?” Gentry Tachibana was stunned, and after a few minutes of silence, he raised his head again, “My attitude is not too important, the key is what do you think. What is the result of “;DUNK” is more than just one of our magazines. I’m watching, right? So, what the next work will look like is not our magazine. At present, there are not many comics that can exceed 1 million volumes in the domestic volume. But Mr. Shen is already in the paper market. When going downhill, drawing a comic with more than 1 million volumes is also very helpful to the magazine. Am I right?”

Tachibana sang his hands on his knees, sitting upright, his eyes closed.

It took about two or three minutes before Gentry Tachibana opened his eyes and said, “I want to go to Huaxia and meet again with Teacher Shen.”

“Yes, but you have to arrange the work of the editorial department.” Murakami warned.

Gen Tachibana looked solemn and nodded, “Leave it to me?”

Returning to the editorial department, he officially announced to all editors that “;DUNK” will end in 6 weeks.

There was silence in the editorial department, but the faces of every editor showed incredible.

The same is true for Miyamoto Hei.

When “;DUNK” was serialized, he somewhat hated “;DUNK” because it was a direct competitor to “The Gate of Eternal Life”, but even so, when he heard that “;DUNK” was about to end, he was still a bit disappointed.

“In short, that’s it. I’m going to Huaxia to discuss the follow-up matters with Teacher Shen, and the editorial department will ask everyone. Also, this news is really… hard to understand. After all, Xiangbei and Shangong The competition has entered the final stage. If you let the outside world know about the end of “;DUNK”, the sales of the magazine will definitely be affected. Therefore, this matter is kept secret for the time being and should not be spread. My China trip, I guess I have to go to “ComicFuture” again. Anyway, please everyone this time.”

After Sentence Tachibana bowed deeply, he walked out of the editorial office to prepare the items used for this trip, but the editorial office exploded.

“Really? “;DUNK” is about to end?”

“Oh, this is a manga with an average volume of 2.6 million volumes. Teacher Shen really can do it?”

“Depressed… If it were my cartoonist, I would not let it end even if I kneel at the door. After this time, “Shoun Leap” wants to have another comic with more than 2 million volumes, I don’t know. When will it be delayed?”

“…”

The office was messy, but Miyamoto was not in the mood to join in the discussion. After get off work, he left the editorial office as soon as possible, took the subway, and came to Uematsuno’s studio.

“Mr. Miyamoto, I remember it didn’t take long for the name to be given to you.” Uematsuno was a little surprised when he saw Miyamoto Hei.

Hei Miyamoto put his briefcase on the free chair and walked to Uematsuno.

“Teacher, there is one thing I want to tell you.”

Hei Miyamoto looked serious, and Uematsuno, who was sitting at the workbench, realized that the matter was very important, so he put down the G pen in his hand and said seriously, “What’s the matter?”

“”;DUNK” has 6 more chapters to end.”

Uematsuno’s eyes widened in an instant, and then slowly closed his eyes, the look on his face also appeared lonely.

“Really? What a pity.”

“All the editors were a little surprised by the sudden end of “;DUNK”…what do you say? “;DUNK” should have been serialized longer…”

“I know. But I can understand.” Uematsuno said suddenly, “If I were Teacher Shen, maybe I would do the same.”

Miyamoto looked at Uematsuno suspiciously, “You too?”

“Yes. You also know that after a work is serialized, many things will be out of control. For example, I always say that “The Gate of Eternal Life” is about to end soon, but there are always sudden thoughts. Come out of it…In this way, the length of the comic can only be extended. From the current point of view, the story of “;DUNK” is very complete. Even the injury of the flower path is also considered. This also shows that the “;DUNK” The end is already a certainty.”

“But, don’t the other strong teams also appear one by one?”

“But Huadao is injured and will not play in the next game. No matter how strong other teams are, if the Xiangbei team can’t play against them, then these strong teams are not important.”

“So, the Xiangbei team lost?” Miyamoto Hirai speculated.

“From the perspective of length, it is more reasonable for the Xiangbei team to lose the game, but if the Xiangbei team loses, what is the meaning of the ikebana playing with injuries? I don’t understand.” Uematsuno shook his head.

Miyamoto frowned and couldn’t guess the ending of “;DUNK”.

“Mr. Miyamoto…”

“Ok?”

“The “Gate of Eternal Life” may really be over.” Uematsuno sighed.

“end?”

“About five years, right? Give me another five years, “The Gate of Eternal Life” must be over, and I’m already collecting the plot now.” Uematsuno said.

Miyamoto looked at Uematsuno in surprise, and swallowed with difficulty. “;DUNK” is about to end. If the end of “Eternal Life’s Gate” is put on the agenda again, “Shoun Leap” is estimated to have a big shock.

Unless, in the meantime, “Young Leap” can have another big hit.

If so, who would it be? What will the editor-in-chief Tachibana gain from this trip to Hongchuan?

Hei Miyamoto did not have the answer Tachibana knew that this trip to China would certainly not be easy. In particular, the negotiation with Shen Xin might involve the interests of some magazines. Therefore, he did not He chose to let others follow, but boarded the plane to Hongchuan alone.

On the plane, Tachibana Gentry has been studying the contract they signed with “;DUNK” and memorized all the clauses and clauses in it.

This contract is certainly not used to draw up a contract for the next work, but it is possible to know the bottom line of both parties, which is particularly important for Tachibana Gentry.

As soon as he landed on the plane, Wang Wenhong called him and informed him that the car had been parked outside the airport. At the same time, Miyamoto Hei also sent a text message-“The Gate of Eternal Life” was about five years away.

Five years…

Gentle Tachibana’s heart sank, and the pressure of this trip suddenly increased.
