Chapter 312: Is the Great Demon King Oda going to become a great priest? !
Oda Shingo's performance at the Agency for Cultural Affairs' annual manga award ceremony quickly went viral on the Internet.
"If you don't accept it, do it! Whoever gives in is a bastard! This is our Demon King's Palace!"
"As expected of Mr. Oda, he is clear about grievances and grievances. He is right in scolding and polite in just the right way."
"What I admire most about Mr. Oda's gentleness in the end is that he is a very gentle and humble person without any past grudges."
"I think Oda-sensei is very much like the Big Demon King in anime. He is usually a good Demon King who doesn't cause trouble. He behaves elegantly and politely. But if you dare to provoke him, he will go berserk in minutes!"
"Teacher Oda is also quite gentlemanly, and he behaved very well the second time he came on stage. And let everyone be sure that he can be humble and polite. The so-called irritability and aggression are only directed at enemies with grudges!"
"Qunying Club deserves to be scolded! Cartoonists Association deserves it too."
The vast majority of manga fans tend to favor Oda Shingo.
This is rare in Japan.
Many sociologists say that Japan is not so much an indifferent society as it is an inertial and atmospheric society.
People who break a certain inertia and influence a certain atmosphere will be severely ostracized by the entire society. At worst, you won't be able to play with it, at worst, you will be directly pointed out by thousands of people.
In particular, many Japanese people are very good at using their words and attitudes to beat up a drowned dog.
Whenever someone is isolated, they will jump up and kick them enthusiastically to show their justice, as if they can gain more social recognition and satisfy their personal sense of accomplishment.
But Oda Shingo, as the person who started the Kokuban fire this time, was not regarded as the person who broke the inertia and affected the atmosphere.
This is largely due to his rapid rise in the comics industry, and his performance was so strong that he became a recognized devil within half a year.
Japan worships the strong. As long as you reach a high enough level that people can look up to you, everyone will be very tolerant of you.
For example, the well-known artist Sawajiri Airuka committed a serious crime, but she made a grand comeback.
There was also shocking news about Hirosue Ryoko. Although it was not implemented, according to media surveys, 46% of the people chose to forgive it if it was assumed to be true.
Of course, there are also people who can't get up after being knocked down by scandals, such as the former goddess Noriko Sakai. This is something that countless fans lament.
At least for now, Oda Shingo maintains the body of King Kong, and comic fans are tolerant of him beyond the atmosphere.
And this time, with the endorsement of the Ministry of Culture, it can be regarded as a background for Oda Shingo, and even the navy sunspots do not dare to take action easily.
Comic fans have very unanimous opinions on this selection.
"It's such a shame that GANTZ didn't win."
"It's only natural that "Parasite" and "JoJo's Adventures" won the awards! The Agency for Cultural Affairs has rarely done justice!"
"That's right. After Mr. Oda's victory, he was able to come on stage to accept the award and deliver a speech. I think the organizer, the Agency for Cultural Affairs, impressed me."
Many manga fans have praised the Agency for Cultural Affairs.
The Cartoonists Association has also been biased in its selections in previous years, and it can be said that it has been a source of resentment for a long time. Many comic fans who like some comics have found an outlet to vent their emotions.
Anyway, if you criticize the Cartoonists Association, we are friends.
As a result, the official website of the Cartoonists Association was crippled again.
"Eight million gods! Why are we technicians always the unlucky ones!" The technical staff of the Cartoonists Association cried again.
Many big Vs and comics critics on the Internet expressed their opinions on the Agency’s attitude from a professional perspective.
[Oda Shingo denies the Cartoonists Association’s selection, fully supports the Agency for Cultural Affairs Manga Award, and is suspected of being included in the official list. ]
[The Agency for Cultural Affairs has maintained complete tolerance for Oda Shingo’s national collapse, and it can even be said to have tacitly supported it, which shows a sharp contradiction with the Cartoonists Association! ]
[On the surface, it is a feud between Oda Shingo and the Guneisha, but in reality it is a power struggle between the Agency for Cultural Affairs and the Cartoonists Association! ]
These analyzes have to be said to be on point.
Small second floor studio.
After reading such professional comments, Oda Shingo's eyes widened in admiration.
Japan is indeed a place that dares to speak out and show its cards right. It actually directly talks about the conflict of interests between the Agency for Cultural Affairs and non-governmental organizations.
"Xingo, this is the first time I see your surprised expression. Are you okay?" Yukaku Namikaze noticed the unusual behavior of him reading online reports. "Ah, it's okay, don't worry. We just need to concentrate on drawing comics and don't really need to worry about the rest."
"Yeah." Yukaku Namikaze concentrated on drawing "GANTZ" again.
At this time, Mrs. Yukino said: "Oda-kun, I have some bad news."
Everyone in the studio looked at her.
Oda Shingo said quickly: "Just tell me."
"Toho Pictures came to contact Springfield Bookstore, hoping to make a live-action version of "GANTZ"!"
"Huh? Is this bad news?" Oda Shingo didn't understand.
"Because I thought it was a good thing when I first heard it, but I soon realized that the peripheral rights are in your hands, and Springfield Bookstore and I are afraid that we won't make much money. So isn't it bad news?"
Mrs. Yukino said, shrugging her shoulders, which made Oda Shingo feel a little numb in his bones.
At the same time, Oda Shingo thought that Mrs. Yukino had a close relationship with Springfield Sadako, the head of Springfield Bookstore. Why would she even be informed of such a thing?
He understood quickly.
This is Haruta Sadako selling face.
Oda Shingo does not have an agent or company. According to industry management, peripheral negotiations start with the comic book club.
People outside don't know that these peripheral rights are actually held by Oda Shingo.
Could it be that Springfield Bookstore wants to get back the peripheral rights as much as possible?
No, my works are from another world and are high-quality products that have been tested by the market. This uniqueness determines the only one in the world. Even if they want to ask for it, they have to consider whether there is a risk of losing it.
Oda Shingo was not worried about this. Mrs. Yukino and Haruta Sadako are both smart people, and they are not stubborn. They will not make big mistakes in this regard.
It’s just that maybe I’ll use a honey trap...
Oda Shingo looked at Mrs. Yukino and felt that if the other party used this trick, would he give in? Or give in?
"Mrs. Yukino, if you are interested in being my agent, please help with the discussion. The final discussion is almost done, let me make a decision." Oda Shingo made a decision quickly.
Instead of them joining forces and taking the initiative to attack, it would be better to pull Mrs. Yukino over alone first.
She was the one who couldn't bear it, not the person at the helm of Springfield Bookstore.
"...You are quite lazy. I don't want to waste time arguing with others, leave it to my team." Mrs. Yukino half refused and half agreed, most likely seeing Oda Shingo's plan.
"Okay, I'll give you a commission based on the employment relationship." Oda Shingo and Mrs. Yukino discussed a brokerage agreement.
Negotiating adaptation licenses is very laborious and time-consuming. Almost no cartoonists have time to negotiate on their own. Most of them are entrusted editors or agents.
Soon, other good news came.
The female assistant to the old director of the Department of Culture called: [Mr. Oda, the director admires your work very much and praises "Working Cells" as a masterpiece of educational animation that has not been seen in many years. Hope to start serializing as soon as possible! ]
Soon, the official media of the Agency for Cultural Affairs, Springfield Bookstore, and Oda Shingo's personal YouTube account released trailers.
[Oda Shingo’s new educational manga will be released on the official media of the Agency for Cultural Affairs in three days! Serialization is delayed every other week on the Springfield Bookstore website! 】
More shocking than the collapse of the country, the comic industry was shocked!
The comic series published by the Ministry of Culture’s official media is just a probationary period for becoming a national teacher!
Is the Great Demon King Oda going to become a high priest? !
The first to stamp their feet was the Cartoonists Association.
Your sister! I was just about to counterattack, and you were recruited? ! How can I fight back?
At this time, in the eyes of the Cartoonists Association, Oda Shingo looked like a gangster, and he had just slapped himself in the face.
I have prepared a crowbar and a bench wrench here, and I will fight back when I am ready...
But they turned around and took the exam!
Oda Shingo, this stinky gangster!
