Rebirth of the God of Comics

Chapter 15 Countermeasure

“Editor-in-chief, most of our agencies refuse to publish this new issue. It is possible that our best estimate can only sell tens of thousands of copies of this issue.”

In the new animation magazine, in order to deal with this incident, Lin Lan called all the editors of the whole company together. The so-called three heads are better than Zhuge Liang. With so many people working together, Lin Lan hopes to find a way to come out.

Lin Lan nodded after hearing that, and said: “Okay, I already know. Now I gather everyone together, just hope you can come up with a way. Chen Ze’s “Slam Dunk” is our magazine. Where is the hope, never let it happen.”

As soon as her voice fell, the surrounding editors showed thoughtful and embarrassed expressions. This time the agents, industry leaders, and third-party review magazines also pointed the finger at “Slam Dunk”. This is the person present who is engaged in the comics industry. Things that have never been encountered, everyone is a little at a loss.

“Editor-in-chief, I am afraid that this time the matter will not be solved so easily. It is not only the problem of the agent, but even Lotte News has issued an article asking us to cut “Slam Dunk” in the middle. He is the industry leader, a magazine like ours. If you offend it, I’m afraid the consequences will be serious.”

A middle-aged man in his thirties said that he had a big opinion on Lin Lan’s signing of “Slam Dunk”, and felt that there was no need to sign a comic like “Slam Dunk”. This time “Slam Dunk” was targeted, and he was also one of the main calls within the company to give up “Slam Dunk”.

“Then what do you mean?” Lin Lan looked at the middle-aged man and said lightly. Her eyes were a little faint, and she didn’t know what she was thinking.

“Abandoning “Slam Dunk”, Lotte Club’s behemoth is not something we can provoke. Offending it for a “Slam Dunk” is not worth it.”

The middle-aged man thought that Lin Lan was finally willing to listen to him in the face of this almost incomprehensible situation. That’s right, a little girl in her twenties knows what a management company is, so you can just hand over the power of the magazine to me, and it’s guaranteed to be 10,000 times better than yours.

The man thought in his heart that he was not only dissatisfied with “Slam Dunk”, in fact, he was more dissatisfied with his boss. I think he is also a man who has been in the comics circle for more than ten years, how can he be under the control of a little girl.

At that time, he came to the new animation magazine when he heard that the magazine has the background of the top few wealthy businessmen in China. Who knows that when he came, it was a little girl who took care of herself, especially what Lin Lan’s little girl idealized. The three principles of **** are even more contemptuous of her.

“Very good!” Lin Lan nodded, “Wang Huan, you were fired.”

The middle-aged man was happy when he heard Lin Lan’s previous sentence, thinking that Lin Lan had followed his advice. Unexpectedly, she actually wanted to expel herself in the last sentence.

“Editor in chief, what did you say?” Wang Huan couldn’t believe his ears.

“I said you were fired.” Lin Lan said indifferently, “You think I don’t know what you did in private. These days I have been in series in the company and asked the editors of the entire company to put pressure on me. It’s you who asked me to give up “Slam Dunk”!”

Wang Huan thought that he had done it very concealed, but Lin Lan knew about it a long time ago: “Editor-in-chief, I am also good for the company. Lotte Club is not something we can deal with. And because of this, you will fire me. Are you not afraid of the cold to the heart of the company?”

Wang Huan defended loudly. After hearing these words, those who had been in contact with him in private, besides worrying about themselves, did feel some chills in their hearts.

“You are right. If it’s these things, of course I won’t account for you.” Lin Lan said this, paused, and then raised her voice: “But you contacted the people of Lotte Club privately and were bought by them to persuade you. I gave up “Slam Dunk”, based on this matter, do you think I can tolerate you?”

“Wow!”

The people present all exclaimed, none of them expected that there would be such a thing.

“Editor in chief, do you have any evidence. If you don’t have any, don’t slander people here. I can sue you.”

Wang Huan looked a little ugly. It is true that people from Lotte Club came to him a few days ago, hoping to use his hand to eradicate “Slam Dunk”, of course, the condition is that Lotte Club can hire him as the new team editor. He had long been dissatisfied with the new animation, and Lotte was the industry leader, so of course he immediately nodded and agreed.

“Sue me!” Lin Lan sneered. I don’t know where she took out a bunch of photos. “These are the best evidence. The person talking to you in it is from the Lotte Club.”

After 　　 said, she threw the pile of photos on the table. The editors around were in an uproar. They stretched out their hands and picked up the photos. The look at Wang Huan immediately changed after reading them.

was still fighting for him just now, thinking that he was also doing good for the company, but he was actually fired by Lin Lan. Unexpectedly, he actually used himself to achieve his goal. Thinking of this, people who had been in contact with him cursed in their hearts.

“Do you need me to say more, Wang Huan, you are no longer a member of our new animation magazine, please pack up and leave!” Lin Lan said coldly to Wang Huan.

Wang Huan’s face was pale. He packed up his things under the gaze of everyone, and walked to the door, but he seemed unwilling to say: “Lin Lan, I tell you all the suggestions I gave you are true. Lotte Club is not you. If you can deal with it, if you offend it, it’s simply seeking its own death.”

Although he is gone, his last words still have a lot of effect. The editors present thought of the behemoth like Lottesha, and their faces were filled with fear and confusion.

“Is Lotte Club inviolable? It is indeed the leader in the industry for 20 years, and so far there is no magazine that can wrestle with it. And our new animation is just a small magazine that has just started, and it is almost compared to it. It is the gap between ants and elephants, but do you really think it is inviolable?” Seeing this, Lin Lan said slowly.

“If it is really inviolable, then why does it have to ban our “Slam Dunk” in a hurry. You guys, don’t forget what magazine it was 20 years ago. At that time, it was just like ours. The ordinary small magazine, because of the appearance of Li Ming, it defeated the then overlord in one fell swoop and became the new leader.”

“Today, Li Mingyang from our new animation magazine was also found. Chen Ze’s “Slam Dunk” showed a momentum that was not inferior to Li Ming’s back then, and it is even better. I think this is also the case. Why are they eager to deal with “Slam Dunk”. As long as we get through this difficulty, I think the time of the change of times will not be far away.”

·······

At the meeting, Lin Lan encouraged all the staff of the magazine with words, but this did not help resolve this matter. Nowadays, the new animation is facing siege from all sides, and the sales of magazines have plummeted to tens of thousands or even thousands. If this problem is not resolved, the magazine will be in danger of bankruptcy.

But it is a pity that even though they worked together in the whole company, they did not come up with a good method. At this moment, she received a call from Chen Ze, in which Chen Ze came up with a solution.

“You mean serializing on the Internet?” Lin Lan asked uncertainly.

“Yes, since the magazine agent refuses to provide us with channels, it is better for us to provide the comics online. UU reading www.uukanshu.com may solve the problem temporarily.”

serialized on the Internet, this is the method that Chen Ze came up with. But in fact, he was also inspired by previous online literature. The emergence of online literature in previous lives has made countless people with literary dreams no longer have to suffer from nowhere to publish, which has brought revolutionary changes to the novel.

Although comics have their own particularities, they cannot be compared with novels. But it should be able to get through the difficulties of this period of time, and not be suffocated to death because of the agent’s problem.

Moreover, people are always profit-seeking animals. As long as their comics are well received on the Internet, there is no need to worry about agencies to distribute magazines. As for the quality of “Slam Dunk”, Chen Ze is still very confident.

“Different from the past, every time we lag behind the magazine by one issue, we can refer to the comics and the magazine one issue, or even advance one issue, watch the comics by subscription, and even make rewards, set monthly ticket lists, etc “Chen Ze said his thoughts.

“Is this really okay?” Lin Lan said uncertainly.

“Of course, I am willing to pack a ticket. If not, my manuscript fee is not required.” The fiction website of the previous life is very popular, although comics have their particularities, they cannot be simply compared with novels. But just using this method to spend the difficult time now, waiting for things to turn around, Chen Ze still has this confidence.

Somehow, after listening to Chen Ze’s confident words, Lin Lan became a little anxious and irritated, and inexplicably quieted down.

(Hurry up and hurry up, it’s still an hour late. Ask for collections and recommendations again. I called it in the morning and the effect is not bad, now I will call it again.)
