Chapter 1178: Shen Xin's Attitude

"Can you slow down a little?" Yu Chen struggled.

"Sorry." Shen Xin lowered her head slightly.

Yu Chen sighed, hesitated for a while, and then said, "That... Teacher, after "DUNK" is over, what are your plans?"

"Maybe I will take a break for two years? "DUNK" has been serialized for five or six years, and I rarely stop publication, so I am very tired." Shen Xin said.

Yu Chen opened his mouth slightly, and sighed helplessly, "It should be, the teacher has been serializing for so long...you should take a break."

"However, at that time, Xiaohan and I may create a comic, which will be serialized in the form of a monthly magazine. As for which platform, I have not yet considered it." Shen Xin said the next plan.

Since there is such a plan, Shen Xin does not intend to hide it.

"Please be sure to consider "Comic Future." Yu Chen said seriously.

"Mr. Yu, you have already said that it is a monthly magazine... oh, is it "Monthly Comic Future"? No, you are not in charge of the monthly magazine." Wang Wenhong interjected.

"Shut up, who said it can't be serialized? It's really not possible. The 40-page manuscript is divided into two chapters and serialized once every half month." Yu Chen knocked on the table and gave Wang Wenhong a hard look.

Can you talk, kid? Although you are not working in the editorial department now, how can this place be your old company?

Wang Wenhong rolled his eyes.

Yue Geng's comics are serialized in a weekly magazine, and only Yu Chen can think of such a thing.

"..." Shen Xin coughed lightly, "Mr. Yu, we are discussing "A World Without Monsters" and the next comic. When "DUNK" is about to end, let's talk about it, okay?"

Yu Chen nodded, focusing on "A World Without Demons" again.

"DUNK" will end in the second half of the year. By then, "Comic Future" is bound to dive.

No magazine, not even the top manga magazine "Shounen Leap" in District 11, can't accept the end of "DUNK".

If "A World Without Monster" is cut in half again, the sales of "Comic Future" are expected to collapse.

As for what he thought just now, Shen Xin was entrusted by Fan Yinmo, and thinking about it carefully, it is also unlikely.

Currently, Shen Xin is the only one in the country, Fan Yinmo may not be qualified to negotiate terms with Shen Xin, not to mention, Shen Xin is indeed considering "Comic Future".

Although Shen Xin just said that "DUNK" would end, Yu Chen felt that Shen Xin was threatening him, but immediately, Yu Chen realized that this feeling was just an illusion.

How high is the sales volume of a single book of "DUNK"? For other cartoonists, it is an astronomical figure, and the benefits are beyond the imagination of ordinary cartoonists.

Let "DUNK" end early? I'm afraid Fan Yinmo couldn't afford the price.

After thinking about this, Yu Chen's mentality also calmed down.

"I can understand what Mr. Shen said. But we still can't tolerate double contracts. Moreover, we also posted on Weibo. If we break our promise, it will be a slap in the face...Even if I agree, Chairman Bao and Mr. Shang will not agree. "Yu Chen wondered.

"I know, on the way here, I have been thinking about this. In fact, there is nothing wrong with the comic "A World Without Demons". The only difficulty is that it signed a double contract. Destroy it, and you sign the contract again, and everything will come naturally. This is a matter for both of you, and it is nothing more than your own interests. As for the Weibo you posted... there should be a way to solve it.

"Shen Xin said.

"What way?" Yu Chen asked hastily.

"The current situation is that the two of you are at a standstill. You will not retreat for the sake of face, otherwise, the magazine's brand will be smashed, and Fan Yinmo is out of anger, and he will definitely not give in. At this time, someone needs to mediate, you two Both sides can also end the current embarrassing situation." Shen Xin expressed her opinion.

Yu Chen took a breath, the method Shen Xin said was indeed very good, but who would mediate was another problem.

"Then... how about Teacher Shen acting as the mediator?" Yu Chen asked tentatively.

Among the cartoonists in China, Shen Xin must be the only one, and there may be a gap in the future before it will be the turn of others. It is perfect for Shen Xin to be the mediator.

"Me? I can't. I'm just a cartoonist, how can I get involved in your affairs?" Shen Xin shook her head, "Besides, someone is more suitable than me."

"Who?" Yu Chen was taken aback, in his memory, except for Shen Xin, there was no more suitable person.

"Mr. Shi Ping." Shen Xin said softly.

When Yu Chen heard the name "Shi Ping", he immediately reacted, "That's right! He can indeed."

It would be perfect for the president of the Cartoonist Association to be the mediator.

The cartoonist association should not only guarantee the interests of the cartoonists, but also take into account the needs of the magazine, and mediate the relationship between the two conflicting parties, which is exactly their duty.

It's just that the cartoonists' association is not as good as before, especially after the web comics came out, the cartoonists' association has been left out for a long time, and the "Comics Festival" has also become unsatisfactory due to the absence of "DUNK" and the appearance of the Golden Paintbrush Award. No matter how important it is.

Letting them mediate can also increase the exposure of the association, which can be described as a win-win situation.

"But there is still a problem, how does the association intervene? If the association wanted to mediate, it would have done it long ago, and it would not wait until now." Yu Chen wondered.

The members of the Cartoonist Association also know that they are no more confident than before, especially when facing "Comic Future". If you come in rashly, it is very likely that you will put a cold ass on your hot face, and you will be boring yourself.

Yu Chen wanted Shi Ping to intervene, but Shi Ping didn't know that Yu Chen wanted him to intervene. "Comic Future" couldn't bear to invite Shi Ping, and Fan Yinmo was no longer ready to hang out in the circle, so it was even more impossible to find him. he.

Therefore, a person is needed to bring Shi Ping to this matter, and this person must have a certain reputation, otherwise, Shi Ping is likely to ignore it—he must also consider the risk of getting involved in this matter.

"In that case..." Shen Xin tapped on the table a few times, and then fixed her gaze on Wang Wenhong, "Brother Wang, please run over and ask Mr. Master to ask him to mediate this matter. Mr. Yu, do you think it's okay?" ?”

"It's possible." Yu Chen was overjoyed.

Shen Xin is willing to help, that's really the best.

Xi Muhan stared at Shen Xin, she never thought that this matter would be resolved in this way.

If a deal is reached, although Shen Xin will not directly benefit, Shen Xin will be favored by "Comic Future" and the Cartoonist Association.

Making magazines and cartoonist associations owe favors is not something that can be done with a high level of comics. It can even be said that without this opportunity, even Shen Xin would not be able to do it.

This is not a triple win, but a quadruple win.

Now, let's see if this thing can be done.

After hearing that Shen Xin was willing to help, Yu Chen's expression eased a lot.

If "DUNK" ends, there must be enough high-quality comics to barely guarantee that the sales of "Comic Future" will not be too ugly. If "A World Without Demons" can come back, it will definitely be a good supplement. The manga that fills the gap in "DUNK" depends on what kind of works Shen Xin can come up with.

"Okay, this matter is over, let's talk about the next question." Shen Xin rubbed her throat, and after talking so much, her mouth felt dry.

Seeing this, Wang Wenhong immediately got up and left the conference room.

"What else?" Yu Chen was a little confused.

"This matter is more important. After Fan Yinmo announced the disbandment of the studio, some cartoonists lost their jobs. Because of different ideas, they had disputes with other cartoonists. I was wondering whether some big platforms should improve the domestic comic circle. environment. Of course, I’m not just talking about the platform “Comic Future”, including Duoman.com, and even the Cartoonists’ Association. They should also come up with something, right?” Shen Xin asked rhetorically.
