Chapter 248: Double open decision! New comic project!
Oda Shingo was browsing through the posts of manga fans, and it was obvious that everyone was very satisfied with the inclusion on the list.
[Oda-sensei really means slap in the face! ]
[No, it means that you are satisfied if you are satisfied! Perfectly responded to our expectations. ]
[I heard that many animal-related comics have been updated twice this week, and some have been published in double-color versions, but it still can’t stop Oda-sensei from being on the list. ]
[It was Mr. Oda who drew Ichi so well. ]
This is a good phenomenon. Oda Shingo’s eyes became crescents when he saw it.
This shows that "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of comic fans and has received very high support.
Just relying on the plot of a few episodes of Ichi, Oda Shingo asked himself, it still cannot be compared with high-quality animal comics.
But the comic fans are so enthusiastic that, based on their own opinions, they voted JOJO onto the list just for fun, ahem, and to fulfill their wish to be on the list.
However, President Haruta's instructions rang in Oda Shingo's mind.
"Oda-kun, Springfield Bookstore aspires to become the fourth largest comic book club, and "Champion" desperately needs to be on the best-seller list!" President Springfield stood up and bowed to Oda Shingo, "I think I have to leave this matter to you. "
Oda Shingo dug out the market data he asked Mikami Saburo for.
Last month, the market share of "Champion" was only 14.2%, while "JUMP" of Qunying Club had 29%, "Magazine" of Lecture Club had 23%, and "Sunday" of Xuezikan had 21%.
No wonder Yu Sanjia never takes "champion" seriously, which is worse than Liu Guanzhang's view of Zhao Yun.
At least the eldest brother called him the fourth brother, but the third family member never regarded Springfield Bookstore as the fourth brother.
Oda Shingo stood up, glanced at Mrs. Yukino on the sofa not far away, went up to the second floor, and stood on the small balcony at the end of the corridor.
The summer wind blew, and he looked at the Qunying Society building in the distance, which he could barely see clearly.
Faintly, you can still see a large comic poster on it, but it's just too far away to see the content clearly.
There were very light footsteps behind him.
As expected of Mrs. Yukino, you understand what I mean.
"What's wrong? Do you have something to say?" Mrs. Yukino also came over.
Today, my wife is wearing a gold-trimmed kimono, which makes her look graceful and luxurious.
Oda Shingo suddenly realized that her clothes seemed to have never been the same...
She is indeed a rich woman.
But such a rich man is still working here...
When Oda Shingo thought of this, he felt that he must be very lucky.
But he couldn't pin down this feeling, and he was very afraid that he was being sentimental.
Maybe it's just a boring trick played by rich people? Have you come to me to reminisce about the bitterness and sweetness?
"I've been walking on thin ice all my life. Do you think I can... double-open serials?" Oda Shingo planned to show off, but soon felt that it was not necessary in front of Mrs. Yukino, and quickly said bluntly: "Springfield Bookstore hopes to have a bigger Market share, I don’t know if I should help.”
"..." Mrs. Yukino pondered slightly and asked: "I want to ask you, are you ambitious?"
"Ambition?"
Mrs. Yukino smiled: "The ambition to become the king of comics."
"...I don't think I told you."
"This ambition is in your mind, but it's written on your face and also reflected in your actions."
Oda Shingo laughed and admitted generously: "Yes, I just want to be strong. Since I do something, I have to do it until I become the king!"
"Then the answer to your question is pretty obvious." Mrs. Yukino shrugged.
The wife's shoulders were obviously wrapped in a kimono, but in Oda Shingo's eyes, it felt very smooth for some reason.
Oda Shingo thought for a while and sighed: "But it must be very hard to open double comics. I'm worried that they will be too tired to follow me..."
He counted on his fingers.
"Namikaze Yukaku is in college and has missed a lot of classes. Now that the summer vacation is about to pass, the daily working hours will be reduced sharply."
"Toudo Xiangcheng graduated from high school. Although she said she doesn't want to go to college, her grades don't seem to be bad. Drawing comics with me may delay her."
"Yuko Mikami is also in college, and it's the University of Tokyo! If you delay your studies..."
But before she finished speaking, Mrs. Yukino suddenly waved her hand: "You shouldn't say these words to me, but ask them directly."
"Uh...I'm sorry." Oda Shingo touched the back of his head.
Mrs. Yukino smiled brightly: "They are here anyway."
"Ah?" Oda Shingo's eyes widened. Mrs. Yukino pointed to the side of the balcony with her white fingers: "There is a ninja here holding on to the wall."
Then he pointed to the side of the first floor: "There is a boxer ambushing here."
Then he pointed to the stairs on the other side of the corridor behind him: "There is someone lying on the stairs here."
Thump thump——
There was a falling sound from the other side of the stairs.
Then came Yuko Mikami's cry of pain: "Oh..."
Oda Shingo covered his forehead.
It turned out that they were all eavesdropping.
Namikaze Yukaku was used to Mrs. Yukino's induction, so he didn't feel too surprised.
She flipped over and rolled directly from the outer wall to the balcony, standing next to Oda Shingo.
"I've always wanted to draw comics, especially after I became your assistant. This is the day I've been looking forward to." Namikaze Yukaku looked at Oda Shingo firmly.
"And me!" Todo Xiangcheng's voice came to mind from the balcony.
She jumped up high, grabbed the fire escape, and rolled up quickly, standing on the other side of Oda Shingo.
"..." Oda Shingo was speechless. It seemed that he didn't have to worry about forgetting his keys at home. Of course, there is no such need for password locks.
Todo Kouchi patted Oda Shingo on the shoulder: "I'm lazy. I've already got my diploma. I don't want to study or work, so you have to support me, boss!"
"And me!" Yuko Mikami had already come up from the stairs.
She had noticed that Namikaze Yukaku and Todo Kojo had escaped, so she was eavesdropping on the stairs.
Yuko looked serious: "Teacher Oda, I can draw very quickly! You can also live here to increase your working hours, so don't worry about it!"
"..." Oda Shingo looked at them and didn't know how to speak for a moment.
"So, if you want to draw any comics, feel free to do it. If you have any requirements, they will work hard and satisfy you. Oh, including me." Mrs. Yukino comforted.
Oda Shingo looked at them one by one.
Yukaku Namikaze, Koucho Todo, Mrs. Yukino and Yuko Mikami.
"Really, you simple guys! I will be embarrassed to deduct your wages from now on!"
Todo Xiangcheng laughed loudly: "You have eaten them all, no, I'm used to cheating, it doesn't matter!"
"Well, gentlemen!" Oda Shingo took a deep breath, "Be prepared to work here for a long time! Maybe you will work for a lifetime!"
Japan has the habit of lifelong employment. Oda Shingo thought.
"Hey Yi——!"
That night, Oda Shingo carefully taught and inspected Todo Orange.
Then she was delighted to find that her painting skills had improved rapidly in the past month. After drawing up the storyboards myself, I can already serve as a lightweight main writer.
"Oda-kun, you, you mean... I can be the main writer?!" Toudou Kaori hugged Oda Shingo's head with a cry.
"Let go!" Oda Shingo spent a lot of effort to push her away and struggle out of the facial cleanser.
"So what can I draw?"
"Well... I have analyzed it before. If you want to suddenly emerge, it is not suitable to open a Western Fantasy Harem or a hot-blooded comic." Oda Shingo muttered.
"Then..." Todo Xiangcheng's eyes sparkled.
Oda Shingo wrote, constantly sketching lines on the drawing paper, and kept saying:
"Love and family affection are two of the many important themes of comics..."
"The strangest and most intimate relationship between a man and a woman, not to mention the illegal one, the legal one is a flash marriage!"
"Men and women mainly have sharp identity opposition, or unclear identities."
"The two of them are too rigid, so they need an emoticon package to make complaints and act cute."
"So, the next comic work..."
"'Spy's House'!"
