Chapter 329 You young man, you are so awesome...
If there is a magazine that carries the greatest expectations this year, it must be "chmpion".
Although "Goblin Slayer" has come to an end for the time being, many people are paying attention to "Spy House" and "Working Cells".
Now "Uncle from Another World" has become a new focus of attention, and even die-hard fans are a little bit embarrassed.
Isn’t such a protagonist a bit too weird? I have never seen anyone so ugly and slovenly.
Although I have confidence in Mr. Oda Shingo, this is considered a headwind situation.
Oda-sensei is so great, what went wrong?
Under the influence of the mentality of worshiping the strong, comic fans naturally want to find another reason.
[It’s all because of that black fan with a black glass heart, he must have messed up Mr. Oda’s thinking! ]
[Yes! Even though Mr. Oda didn't accept the bet about sleeping with him and putting on his underwear, he was definitely confused! ]
Black Glass Heart’s personal column was quickly filled with rebuke.
But this anti-fan didn’t seem to take it to heart at all, and just replied lightly:
[We are waiting for Oda Shingo’s tsundere painting method. If he can really draw it well, I will carry out my bet and sleep with him! 】
The comic fans who came to ridicule were immediately happy.
[Who wants you to sleep with me? You will definitely be scared to wake up! ]
[Wait a minute, I suddenly thought that maybe Mr. Oda was afraid of this, so he drew the weird "Uncle from Another World"? ]
[Yes, yes! I very much agree with this inference. There is a detective upstairs! ]
The comic fans were laughing and joking, no one took it seriously, they just thought it was a piece of fun and let it go.
Oda Shingo has also received concern from many people.
Chuntian Sadako, the president of Springfield Bookstore, came to visit in person.
Oda Shingo is the backbone of the company. If he is not able to visit the president at the headquarters, it would be very humane for the president to pay a return visit.
"President Spring, you can come to the humble house, Oda Shingo and I are so scared." Oda Shingo knew this favor and immediately came to the door to welcome him in.
As a female elder, Sadako Haruta patted Oda Shingo on the shoulder: "Teacher Oda, you are so polite. I heard that you made a special trip to our club last time, but unfortunately I missed it. But you sent I actually ate the snacks that came, and I really appreciate Teacher Oda’s thoughtfulness.”
She has the dignity of a president and the charm of being friendly to her subordinates. She is worthy of being the talkative person in charge.
Under normal circumstances, it is considered a great conscientiousness for the editor to visit the author in person.
If the editor-in-chief can come, it will be a great success.
If a ministerial figure from the publication comes, it will be a blessing.
If the president comes to visit in person, only comics at the national teacher level can get this kind of treatment.
Oda Shingo is actually not yet at the level of a national teacher, but "Working Cells" gave him a similar reputation, and it is still just a prototype. No one has yet connected him with a national teacher, let alone a higher-level national godfather.
After changing his shoes and entering the house, Oda Shingo introduced the situation of the studio to President Haruta and introduced the three female assistants one by one.
The three women bowed politely.
“I am really grateful for your favor, President Springfield, for giving me so many opportunities.”
“No, no, it was Mr. Oda who made Springfield Bookstore possible. I should be more grateful for your care in the development of comic magazines.”
After Sadako Haruta and Shingo Oda sat down on the sofa, they had a standard business talk.
The three women don’t like to hear such clichés.
Namikaze Yukaku behaved very naturally as a housewife, busying around with tea and water.
Todo Xiangcheng just stayed by the side in a more disciplined manner at first, but soon started painting again without taking it too seriously.
Mikami Yuko was more reserved and accompanied him quietly. After all, her brother was his direct subordinate.
Soon, the two began to negotiate some authorized cooperation matters.
Mikami Saburo has relayed to the president Oda Shingo’s application for increasing the page length. This is the first thing the president said today.
But she didn't mention it immediately, but first asked about future development intentions and agency issues around surrounding copyrights.
Oda Shingo is also a veteran in shopping malls, so why doesn’t he know that this is an insinuating move? Whoever reveals the truth first will suffer the consequences. It hasn't reached the melee stage yet. If it comes out first, it will definitely become soft later.
Although some people say that girls like boys who can make friends to the end, but boys are also afraid that they will not be the most powerful and will be taken over, right?
Well, it seems that it is not appropriate to describe the negotiation between the old president and Oda Shingo.
To put it simply, Oda Shingo’s performance of avoiding the truth and making mistakes made President Haruta, who is experienced in business wars, secretly unable to bear it.
"Teacher Oda, it's really nice to talk to you today. It's really easy to talk to smart people." President Haruta smiled.
I believe you, you old guy is very bad. Although Oda Shingo doesn't think she is a villain, she is currently in a state of business negotiation and is a temporary opponent rather than an ally, so he naturally has to be wary of the other party.
Are all young people today so awesome? Although I have learned this lesson a long time ago, but today I came purely for negotiation, I realized more deeply that Oda Shingo is worthy of being called the Great Demon King in the comics industry!
It doesn’t look like the mature behavior expected of a twenty-year-old at all.
But, do I really have to make more concessions? Although he is indeed running Springfield Bookstore on his own shoulders, he has taken advantage of the current independent copyright contract.
If we make concessions later, I am afraid that Springfield Bookstore will only be able to gain a share of the comics market, and will not be able to gain huge benefits from Oda Shingo's works.
Just as President Haruta was hesitating, the electronic door creaked softly.
The door opened and Mrs. Yukino walked in.
“Huh?” President Springfield’s eyes widened and he immediately stood up.
This is completely inconsistent with the way he was negotiating in an orderly manner as the president just now.
"Sadako?" Mrs. Yukino was also a little surprised.
"Sister Yukino..." President Haruta was obviously a little excited. He took a few steps forward, but did not dare to take more steps. He just explained as if he was panicking, "It's a coincidence, I didn't I thought of you living here.”
Others don’t know that Haruta Sadako was asked by Mrs. Yukino not to pester her.
This meeting was beyond Sadako Haruta’s expectations.
Oda Shingo was also surprised. He began to calculate how old Mrs. Yukino was.
He read the information and knew that Haruta Sadako was over 50 years old. But Mrs. Yukino doesn’t look like she’s over 50 years old.
Mrs. Yukino put on her shoes with a smile and said, "Long time no see, Sadako."
"Yes, Sister Yukino." Haruta Sadako's eyes turned red with excitement. . Although not to the point of crying, the mood swings were huge.
Mrs. Yukino lightly scolded: "Really, this is Tokyo. Don't always call me by my seniority in my hometown, as if I am very old."
"Ah! It's my habit. "Yes." Haruta Sadako quickly bowed, "Yukino... Madam, I'm rude."
Oda Shingo noticed that her bow angle was at 90 degrees, but seemed to think it was wrong, and quickly adjusted it. Returned to 45 degrees, hesitated and adjusted to 40 degrees.
This is hard to understand.
"Although it is rare for us to meet each other and we have a lot to say. But you must have something important to come here today, right?" Mrs. Yukino's smile was sweet, "I will wait for you to discuss it before I invite you. Let's talk slowly when we go out to eat."
"Ah, we have already discussed it!" Haruta Sadako nodded excitedly and turned to Oda Shingo as if he wanted to find a witness, "Teacher Oda. , Your suggestion just now was so good, I already felt in my heart that I should do what you said.”
Oda Shingo: "..."
"Then, if you have any trouble, I will leave first." Haruta Sadako bowed and said goodbye, and moved to Mrs. Yukino's side with small steps that were inconsistent with her age, "I am here It’s settled.”
Mrs. Yukino rubbed her broken hair on her forehead and took her out.
Before leaving the house, Haruta Sadako looked back at Oda Shingo.
There is an indescribable taste in his eyes.
It seems to be saying: You young man is so awesome...
