Chapter Three Five Four.
Seo Dago has been busy these days.
After all, the matter of moving from Yanzhu Publishing House to other publishing houses does not mean that you can change jobs by just changing jobs.
Although he agreed to Higashinoji not to apply for the job, this did not affect his future work environment.
He also troubled his friends at other publishing houses to help inquire.
At the same time, after Higashinoji, many people still want to take him to their publishing house.
However, the conditions given by these publishing houses made him not particularly satisfied.
Some publishing houses said they would promote him from being an editor to chief editor within one year.
Some publishing houses simply want him to be a middle-level manager and give him a position as deputy editor-in-chief, and the editor-in-chief doesn't have to think about it at all...
Some people also paint big cakes even more than Higashiji, saying that they would hand over a brand new department to him, and hoped that he could manage it with all his power and find someone...
This is simply a typical example of making money from nothing.
Therefore, after looking around Seo Daigo, I found that the conditions given by Toshima Publishing House were the most sincere.
Although Seo Daigo cannot get the position of editor-in-chief of Toshima Publishing House's current leader, "Waise" comic magazine, he chooses at any other position of editor-in-chief of "Qi" and "Trilling".
This is indeed full of sincerity.
Although "Aversion to Chill" and "Thugger" are not as good as "Harmony", as a popular comic magazine in the past, the power to mobilize resources will definitely not be small.
Should we say that it is a giant publishing house? It has a rich foundation and is so generous. If it were other comic publishing and magazines, it would be difficult to get these things out.
However, behind such a grand atmosphere, Toshima Publishing House also put forward conditions for Seo Daigo.
They hope that after Seo Daigo takes office, they can increase the sales of magazines.
If it cannot be done, Seo Dago may be demoted.
However, this method of handling is quite normal.
The competitive pressure of giant publishing houses is very high. If the position of editor-in-chief cannot create benefits, it is basically just a matter of changing.
Unless you are from some factions under a giant publishing house... Otherwise, if you can't achieve results, you will be demoted.
"If nothing unexpected happens, you should choose Toshima Publishing House." Seo Daigo made a decision in his heart and murmured to himself.
But while he muttered to himself, he couldn't help but think of what Higashinoji said.
The number of registered members of this P site exceeded 10,000 within 20 days, so he went to work in Dongye Studio.
But...
"No matter how you think about it, it's impossible..."
Seo Daigo shook his head.
He has been busy dealing with work social engagements these ten days, and he is so busy that he is dizzy. Not to mention turning on the computer to check the current situation of the P site, he doesn't even have time to turn on the TV.
Too busy.
"There is time now... I'll just look at the specific situation of the P site."
Seo Dago pondered.
After all, the other party came to invite him with sincerity. Seo Daigo felt that he had to pay a little attention to the specific situation of the P site.
He was about to turn on the computer and check out the P station, but before he could take action, Yano Ryuichi called.
This made Seo Dago a little puzzled.
You should know that after only ten days, why did the other party contact him on his own initiative?
Don’t have money to read novels? I’ll give you cash or coins, and I’ll receive them for a limited time of 1 day! Follow the public account [Book Friends Camp] and get them for free!
Of course, he didn't think it was Higashinoji and others who completed the task indicators in ten days, with the number of registered members reaching 10,000.
After all, that’s a total of 10,000 registered members. What can be operated in ten days?
Four hundred registered members or five hundred?
Anyway, it cannot exceed one thousand.
To be honest, even if I give Higashiji and the others a month... Seo Daigo feels that this is an unlikely task.
This is not to look down on Higashinoji and Higashino Studio's operating capabilities, but to make a very ordinary rational judgment.
So he excluded this option and answered the phone.
"Hey? YanoSang? Is there anything wrong?"
"Haha, this time I found Seo San for the main purpose of the pixiv registered membership mentioned earlier... I wonder if Seo San is available now? Teacher Higashino and I want to visit us."
ah?
Visiting home?
Seo Daigo listened to Yano Ryuichi's voice, and he became more and more confused about what the other party was trying to do.
It is unlikely to think about it in ten days if you register a member of 10,000 yuan... The other party also needs to visit...
Could it be that Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi wanted to come to the door and said that they could not do it, so they gave up?
That's right...
After last contact with Higashinoji, Seo Daigo felt that the other party respected others very much, and it was natural that he would come to the door for this matter.
The more I thought about Seo Daigo, the more I felt it was possible.
So he replied, "No problem, YanoSang, I'm free now."
"OK."
The other party greeted Seo Daigo for a while and hung up the phone, probably because he wanted to prepare for something.
Seo Daigo also breathed a sigh of relief and began to think about what to do.
After all, what they said before cannot be achieved, so I guess Higashinoji and his team came to the door this time with some apology.
So what attitude should I use to receive them?
Seo Daigo had made a decision after just thinking a little.
As the master, he must fulfill his host's obligations.
He definitely can't laugh at Higashinoji or Yano Ryuichi for wanting to register for members in 10,000 in 20 days, after all, there are many friends and many roads.
Even if he cannot join Higashino Studio and cooperate with Higashino Studio, Seo Daigo would not offend Higashino and the others because of this incident.
"Then you're just treating each other politely."
Seo Dago made up his mind.
And you have to give Higashinoji a sufficient face... Because Higashinoji must be quite depressed now, and there will be a sense of frustration if the goal you set is not completed.
So this must be taken into account.
Seo Dago had already thoughts in his mind and felt that everything was settled.
Since Higashinoji cannot reach 10,000 registered members in 20 days, he can feel at ease to go to Tokushima Publishing House to choose "Qi" or "Trilling" to be the editor-in-chief.
Thinking of this, Seo Daigo began to prepare tea and waited for Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi to come.
In fact, he didn't wait long.
Almost ten minutes later, Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi had already come to the door.
but...
As soon as the two sides met, Seo Daigo felt strange.
It's really weird.
Because the expressions of Yano Ryuichi and Higashinoji looked like spring breeze, they smiled three times when they saw people, as if they had encountered something good, and they didn't feel any depressed at all.
This made Seo Daigo couldn't help but look at it for a few more times, and he became more and more confused about what was going on.
Are all the people at Higashino Studio so optimistic?
Not to mention anything else, I feel that the mentality of Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi is worthy of his learning.
He greeted Yano Ryuichi and Higashinoji very enthusiastically and began to greet them.
Greetings actually require skills.
Like this time, Seo Daigo felt that he wanted to avoid topics about P stations, so as not to cause unhappiness between Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi.
He thought about it and asked simply: "How is Mr. Higashino's recent performance in "Hanzawa Naoki"? I have paid attention to it before. It seems that "Hanzawa Naoki" has basically locked in the top sales of new comics in Toshima Publishing House, right?"
This is considered to be considering the face of Higashinoji. Putting aside the topic of P site, we will discuss "Hanzawa Naoki".
In addition, after Seo Daigo, he also had to work at Toshima Publishing House, so it's okay to ask this question.
"The results of "Hanzawa Naoki" have always been quite stable." Higashinoji took a sip of tea and replied with a smile: "It hasn't reached the real ** point of the plot yet... Compared to "Hanzawa Naoki", I actually want to talk about the current P site more."
Well...
Higashinoji took the initiative to mention the "sad things" of the P station, which made Seo Dago unexpected.
He couldn't help but look at the other person again, and found that Higashinoji was still smiling happily... there was no sad expression at all.
And Yano Ryuichi next to him smiled when he heard Higashiji say this...
This...the people at Higashino Studio are really optimistic.
Seo Daigo can only think so.
Or is the operational performance of P site actually quite good?
Seo Daigo, who originally thought it would be impossible to register a member of 10,000 in 20 days, was a little shaken.
But it was just a little shaken.
He didn't think Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi came over now to discuss employment with him.
Seo Daigo picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and was about to speak something before he could say...
Then--
"Editor-in-chief Seo, this is the inauguration contract prepared by our Higashino Studio for you. Please take a look. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can discuss it."
"ah?"
Looking at the contract that was suddenly placed in front of him, Seo Daigo was really caught off guard.
His face was a little inexplicable with his teacup in hand, and he had not had time to speak.
Yano Ryuichi on the other side added: "This contract is summarized by us based on the current best treatment on the market... If Seo Daigo thinks it is good, then sign and stamp it directly."
no...?
Seo Daigo looked at the contract in his hand and couldn't help but touch his head.
Why did you suddenly let yourself sign and seal it?
After a long time, do you still want to pull me into the pirate ship?
He couldn't help but glance at the content on the contract, and then he found that there were many treatments on it that he was almost the same as when he was at Yanzhu Publishing House, and even some preferential treatments.
It can be said that he is full of sincerity.
but...
"Teacher Higashino, YanoSam... Didn't the first two say that? I will show me the results of the P site in twenty days..."
Seo Daigo put down the contract and looked up and puzzled.
He didn't quite understand what the actions of Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi meant.
Although the treatment is generous, Toshima Publishing House is also not bad.
The most important thing is that the website operation made him see no hope... He didn't expect that he would be forced to stage a drama "Hanzawa Naoki" in Higashino Studio.
His expression was strange, but what he didn't expect was that the expressions of Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi were even more surprising.
Yano Ryuichi couldn't help but speak, "Seo San...you probably didn't pay much attention to the current situation of P site, right?"
"...I really didn't pay much attention." Seo Daigo explained honestly: "There are many publishing magazines coming to me these days, and most of my energy is busy dealing with them."
He goes to three or four publishing magazines every day, and he really doesn’t have the energy to go online to watch P-sites.
"So that's it." Yano Ryu nodded, and then took out another document from the folder: "This is the increase in registered members of our P site since the trial operation in the past ten days. Please check it out together."
"..." Seo Dago.
Things are going too fast, it can be said to be fast.
Seo Daigo was a little confused about the current situation.
However, he is also the editor-in-chief of Yanzhu Publishing House, and he is still calm in this situation.
Seo Daigo reached out to take Yano Ryuichi's document and glanced roughly.
"Pixiv website...cumulatively 12,573 registered users?"
Seo Daigo looked at the printed chart and was stunned for a while. Then he counted again and confirmed that it was a five-digit number. Then he looked up at Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi in front of him.
To be honest, this data is really terrifying...
It was so scary that he even thought he had read it wrong, or that Higashinoji, Yano Ryuichi and his studio had printed the wrong file.
How could a trial operation website take only ten days to reach this point?
Looking at the rows and columns of chart data above, Seo Daigo calmed down again and pinched his chin.
After a while, he spoke, "Teacher Higashino, can I go to the room now to take a look at the situation of Pixiv?"
This is a very rude behavior.
After all, the customer is still in the living room, and he has to go to his room to check the data...
However, Higashinoji didn't care. He just stretched out his hand and signaled Seo Daigo to ask for help.
"Taiwano Teacher." Yano Ryu turned to look at Higashiji beside him.
"Everything that can be done has been done, it depends on the result now." Higashinoji replied, but he was relieved.
If Seo Daigoshima has no interest in P-site at all.
Then it would be useless even if he took out the data of more than 100,000 registered members in ten days.
The other party can still find an excuse to refuse and go wherever you want.
But now, the other party did not refuse, but instead entered the room to check the status of the P site...
This shows that... Seo Dago is not completely uninterested in P-sites.
If Higashinoji had not expected this time, the editor of the Skyfall System would have been steadily taken.
He and Yano Ryuichi were waiting in the living room for about five or six minutes before Seo Dago reappeared.
And this time, when the other party looked at Higashinoji and Yano Ryuichi, he changed his expression.
Because it is indeed like Yano Ryuichi's data.
The cumulative number of users on the p site has reached 10,000.
This data cannot be faked at all, as long as it can be seen from the number of submissions.
Similarly, he also saw a lot of articles reporting on P-sites outside.
As the former editor-in-chief, Seo Daigo could see at a glance that these articles were not the soft articles that Higashinoji asked someone to write...but the reputation that was genuine and won by relying on the strength of P station.
Originally, Seo Daigo thought they would not be able to do it in twenty days...
Unexpectedly, I had registered more than 10,000 members in ten days.
Higashinoji also proved it clearly.
P site is indeed a website with great potential development.
Since that's the case...
Seo Daigo didn't say much, but just read the contract and various terms that need attention.
Then he took out his own seal and signature pen, and signed his name without hesitation.
very good!
Chapter completed!
