"It's going to be a big hit! Dragon Jump is definitely going to be a big hit."
"The status of Weekly Shonen Jump is in jeopardy."
"Kobayashi Keiko is definitely not a layman. On the contrary, she definitely knows a lot about comics."
"These four comics, which suddenly appeared, will definitely leave a strong mark in the entire history of Japanese comics..."
…
Sitting on the steps of the bookstore, Kento Tanaka finished reading the entire "Dragon Jump" in one breath as if no one was around.
There were endless emotions in his mind, and then he suddenly slapped his head and shouted: "Baga! I am such a fool. What am I still doing here? I have to go back... back to the magazine office."
Yes!
At this moment, Kento Tanaka felt extremely regretful.
If I hadn't resigned on impulse a few days ago, I would have had a share of all the achievements and honors that Dragon Jump had won by now!
Even if he did not participate in any part of the content of "Dragon JUMP", as long as he stayed in the magazine, his position was the editor-in-chief. To the outside world, "Dragon JUMP" was born from his hands!
The first edition sold 500,000 copies!
Moreover, today is not over yet, printing is still ongoing, and the result is far more than this.
Such an honor!
Such results!
It’s enough to go down in history!
Originally, all of this could form a strong correlation with him.
But now...
Everything has nothing to do with him anymore.
even……
When he resigned from "Weekly Tomorrow Manga", in order to make Keiko Kobayashi more embarrassed and regretful, he gave her more favorable treatment when she was reinstated. He also deliberately denigrated Keiko Kobayashi, an outsider, in the industry.
Almost all people working in the domestic comics industry know that all the old employees of "Tomorrow Comics Weekly" have resigned.
Originally, everyone was laughing at Keiko Kobayashi's joke.
But what about now?
Kento Tanaka knew with his toes that these employees who had resigned had become a real joke, a big joke.
"No! It can still be salvaged. It must be salvageable.
"Tomorrow's Comics Weekly" is the comics battlefield where I have fought for seven or eight years, and I want to return to my position.
Yes! There will definitely be a place for me, and I must have a share of this honor. "
The excited Kento Tanaka, who was usually too reluctant to take a taxi even when he was sick and went to the hospital, now anxiously hailed a taxi and quickly rushed to the office building of "Weekly Tomorrow Manga" magazine, oh no, it should be "Dragon Jump" magazine.
…
However……
When Kento Tanaka got off the car, he found that there were many more smart people than just him.
The entrance of the "Dragon JUMP" magazine was crowded with people.
He saw many familiar faces among them.
Almost all of the more than one hundred old employees who had resigned with him rushed back with eager looks on their faces.
There were also many faces that looked somewhat familiar to him, but he didn't quite recognize them.
He vaguely remembered that many of these people were reporters for cultural industry newspapers, while some were editors of other comic magazines.
"This is... these editors, are they trying to change jobs? Damn it! Our positions have just been vacated, and they are eyeing us already? Forget it!"
Upon seeing this situation, Kento Tanaka felt a strong sense of crisis and he immediately called out to his former subordinates.
"Editor-in-Chief Tian Jian, you are finally here. We have all been waiting for you to take charge!"
"That's right! Editor-in-Chief Tanaka, we listened to you and resigned on our own initiative. Now you must go and talk to President Kobayashi on our behalf."
"Yes, yes, yes! We don't need to ask for a 200% salary increase. We can just ask for the previous 50% salary increase. As long as she agrees, we will come back to work immediately."
"What are you thinking? A pay raise, didn't you see that? I've seen several editors and illustrators from Weekly Shonen Jump want to apply.
I just heard them say that if they can participate in the creation of Dragon Ball, they don’t even need to take a salary…”
"Hurry up! Editor-in-Chief Tanaka, can you go and discuss this with President Kobayashi on our behalf?
As long as we can return to work at the magazine and participate in the four comics of Dragon Jump, we will do anything."
…
No one is a fool. The potential and prospects shown by "Dragon JUMP" as soon as it was published made all the comics industry practitioners in Japan jealous.
These former employees who thought they could control Keiko Kobayashi are now really panicked.
Not only will he be unable to return to work, but he might also become the biggest joke in the entire Japanese comics industry.
"Don't worry! Everyone, please don't worry.
After all, we are old employees, and no one knows better than us how "Tomorrow Comics Weekly" was operated before.
What advantages do these new applicants have over us?
Besides, President Kobayashi had planned to keep us and was willing to give us a salary increase.
As long as we show our attitude this time and sincerely want to stay, I believe President Kobayashi will be eager for us to come back."
In front of his subordinates, Tian Jian would never lose face at all.
He confidently led everyone towards the gate of Dragon JUMP magazine.
However……
Now the door of "Dragon Jump" is closed from the inside because there are too many people coming to "harass" it.
