Chapter 860 Balance

Xifeng was overjoyed when he heard this.

If "Stones;Gate" signs a contract with "Qichuang Library", he should be the one who will be most affected.

After all, "Steins;Gate" currently ranks first on the hit list, and "Daily Life in a Small World" ranks second.

A magazine's resources are limited, of course he is confident of winning "Steins;Gate", but the editor and president of the magazine may not necessarily think so.

Therefore, when he heard that "Stones;Gate" did not sign a contract with the magazine, he was also relieved.

"Why didn't you sign the contract?" Xifeng asked casually.

"Why? Actually, there are not so many reasons... Others are not willing to sign a contract, so Editor-in-Chief Kong can't hold someone else's hand and sign the contract, right?" Xu Jie looked helpless.

"..."

Xifeng didn't expect this to be the reason.

Don't sign a contract... Isn't it a fool?

"However, although that one is good, it's not indispensable. Editor Kong tried several times, but the other party didn't reply, so I didn't contact the other party again." Xu Jie shrugged his shoulders.

"That's really a pity." Xifeng laughed awkwardly and rubbed his nose.

The magazine may think that "Steins' Gate" is dispensable, but for him, "Steins' Gate" may really become his stumbling block, but now, this stone is gone.

"By the way, there is one more thing...it may have a certain impact on "Magic Creation World"." Xu Jie hesitated again and again, but said another thing.

"Um?"

The smile on Xifeng's face gradually froze.

"Next year? At the earliest in the first half of the year, there should be a comic serialized in "ComicFuture". By then, it may affect the performance of "Magic World"." Xu Jie took a deep breath.

"Is it Teacher Shen's work?"

"Ah?" Xu Jie was stunned for a moment, then shook his head again and again, "What are you thinking? If it's Mr. Shen's new book, the word 'possible' doesn't exist. It's another book, and it's under negotiation now, and it's almost finished. Yes. Mr. Yu's expectations for this work are no less than "Magic World"... No, it should be said that the expectations for this work are even higher."

"so smart?"

"Yes. This cartoonist is from China and has a certain reputation in the 11th district. It is also an opportunity for us to come back from the 11th district. This time it may affect many people in "ComicFuture"?" Xu Xu Jay looked serious.

"Will it affect Teacher Shen Zheng?" Xifeng was very unconvinced.

"This...is hard to say." Xu Jie pondered for a long time, but finally did not give a definite answer.

"Impossible? Even Mr. Shen can't compare to him?" Xifeng's heart skipped a beat.

He is not a cartoonist, but it does not prevent him from knowing Shen Zheng—if you are in the Chinese comic circle, if you don’t know who Shen Zheng is, it would be a failure—in Han Ye’s words, the work "Steel Refining", no matter From the storyboard, or from the story frame, it can be called a textbook level.

Xifeng has been to Han Ye's studio, and he really saw a whole set of "Steel Refining", the cover of which was almost ripped apart, which also made him full of curiosity about Shen Xin, but he never had the chance to meet him.

Now hearing that Shen Xin might be influenced by another new book, I have some murmurs in my heart.

Is that new book really that good?

"From my personal point of view, Mr. Shen will not be affected. But... there are many things that cannot be said. Besides, Mr. Shen has not serialized new works in "ComicFuture" for almost two years now. The magazine must Train a newcomer."

way of balance.

Xifeng immediately understood that such an approach is definitely not advisable, but Yishu Culture is also very entangled now.

They want to seize the initiative, however, facing the strong Shen Xin, they don't want to let go.

"Now, the old editors in the magazine have all left, and a group of new editors have joined. I also want to know who will be the editor in charge of Mr. Shen."

Wang Wenhong, Yan Fei, Jian Xiaomei... The editorial department suddenly lost three people,

The workload of the old employees immediately increased.

The two chatted briefly for a while, and when Xu Jie was about to leave, Xifeng did not forget to tell him not to forget to contact Lu Ning.

After Xu Jie closed the door, Xifeng took out his mobile phone and opened the light reading network ranking list, "Stones;Gate" was still ranked first.

Now that he saw this movie, he felt sore, especially the comments in the comment area, which made him envious too much - except for the recommendation of this movie, it was the discussion of the plot.

It's great to have such readers.

Of course, there are also trolls, but which book has no trolls?

Xu Jie's finger stayed on the top of "Start Reading" for more than ten seconds, but he still chose to exit the interface.

It's not that there are no books to read? Do you have to read this book?

dont see!

Xifeng secretly swore in his heart that even if his grades in this book really surpassed him in the future, he would not read it.

...

Xifeng posed a moderate problem to Xu Jie.

Please Lu Ning? Hehe... For such a thing, just ask.

Xu Jie really didn't expect Lu Ning to agree, but the reality is that Lu Ning did not disappoint Xu Jie. On the phone, he rejected Xu Jie very cleanly.

"Sure enough." After Xu Jie hung up the phone, he lay powerlessly on the desk.

"What do you think?" Hook sitting across from him sneered, "If it was serialized in a magazine, I wouldn't say anything. Now you ask Mr. Lu to draw a web comic for a newcomer, and there is no other copyright income Please, that's Mrs. Lu, she and Mrs. Xi painted "Ding Shi", and they competed with "The Demonic Way" for the first place."

"Stop talking, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have listened to Teacher Xifeng." Xu Jie rubbed his forehead.

He was really embarrassed when the team leader said that.

"Speaking of which, the contract between Mr. Lu and Mr. Xi should expire, right?" Li Junwen leaned back in his chair.

"It seems so, but the editor in charge of the contracts of the two teachers is Yan Fei. She has resigned, and the two teachers are no longer in charge." Xu Jie spread his hands.

"Everyone, don't think too much about these things. Teacher Xi probably won't sign another contract. Besides, even if it is a contract, it is impossible to sign a long-term contract. After all, Teacher Shen is there." Hu Ke waved his hand.

The others looked at each other and sighed.

With Shen Xin's character, Xi Muhan can sign works, but if he wants to sign a contract like a contract exclusive, there is no way.

"By the way, how is that work going?" Xu Jie whispered.

"That matter was led by Chairman Bao, and Mr. Yu agreed, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

"I really can't figure out why the magazine signed a comic that has already been released publicly?" Zhou Xiaoming held his chin, his face full of doubts.

As a newcomer who has just joined the magazine for a few years, his qualifications have also become old after several old employees have left.

"You don't understand this, do you? First of all, this comic has been tested by readers in the 11th district. Its online hit rate should be relatively high among Chinese cartoonists. Secondly, although it has been recognized by readers, However, the picture of that comic is very bad, which affects the grades, indicating that there is still a chance to go further. Finally, although this comic is popular in District 11, in China, not many people know about it, so it is convenient for us to package it. If If we can win it, and hire high-level cartoonists, it may not be impossible to create a high-quality cartoon, like "Smelting Steel".

The editor Dong Zihao who was just transferred from "Youth Future" analyzed it carefully.

The others smiled awkwardly and did not speak.

Like "Forged Steel"? Who gave you the courage?
