Hosokawa Koharu discovered that there were many authors with very good painters in the original section of the Toshino manga website.

This surprised her a little.

A comic editor from a big publishing house like her received no more than thirty or twenty in one day.

The most common problem of some newcomers is that they are not good at painting!

Perhaps some people will make a defense when they see this sentence, saying that there is no need for any painter to draw comics.

Indeed, the most important thing in drawing comics is not the painter, but the plot.

but...

You have to let me understand what you are drawing, right?

I don’t even know what you are painting, so what other plot should I watch?

What Hosokawa Koharu is most afraid of is this kind of newcomer.

Even the things you draw require editor Hosokawa Koharu, to guess the riddles.

Some newcomers don’t know how to draw backgrounds, so they simply stop drawing.

This made Hosokawa Koharu very worried.

This is also why Hosokawa Koharu reviews the original manuscripts very quickly.

Because often you can sentence the newcomer's comics to death by just reading a dozen pages, so there is no need to look at Koharu Hosokawa at all.

but...

“It’s really different here.”

Koharu Hosokawa originally thought that the original section of the Tono manga website must be filled with many newcomers who have never painted comics, and they can't even use pens.

As a result, when she took a serious look...

Only then did she realize that all the newcomers...painters are OK.

Most of the Higashino comic websites are much better than the painters who contribute to the newcomers of Toshima Publishing House.

Hosokawa Koharu's face remained unchanged, but she was a little surprised in her heart.

You should know that after the joint venture, Toshima Publishing House is now one of the top three giant publishing houses in Japan.

It is definitely much more famous than Higashino Studio.

And being famous can naturally attract more contributors who pay attention to the comics...

Logically speaking, Toshima Publishing House's professionalism should be stronger than Higashino Studio.

Therefore, the painter should be the contributor to Tokushima Publishing House, who is better.

But reality is the opposite.

This made Hosokawa Koharu feel a little unscientific.

Not to mention that some painters in the original section of Higashino Studio are even better than some authors who are serialized in Tokushima Publishing House...

Hosokawa Koharu was a little unacceptable for a moment.

While it was unacceptable, Hosokawa Koharu was also a little curious.

Where did Higashinoji find such a group of high-level new authors?

This is a rare treasure in any publishing house.

Why do you look like some cabbage on Higashinoji's online comic platform? It's a lot of them?

She couldn't figure it out, and at the same time she thought of what Ozawa Hoki said to her before...

The other party believed that Higashinoji could strengthen Higashino comic platform, so she asked her to come over to "sneak" experience...

At that time, Hosokawa Koharu didn't believe it very much, and thought it was Osawa Hoshikichi who thought too much.

But now it seems different.

Higashino Studio may really be able to strengthen the Higashino comics online platform...

After all, for this kind of industry, the most important thing is not to edit these employees, but to talents such as comic authors.

"No, no! How could I make such a fuss?"

Hosokawa Koharu patted his face hard.

Higashinojira came over by himself just hoping that he could help.

As a result, before I could help, I was surprised here and there...

How can this be done?

"No! You must work hard!"

Hosokawa Koharu patted his face.

I am now half a person from Dongye Studio.

No matter how you think about it, you can't eat in vain!

She re-entered her energy to get started.

I reviewed the manuscript carefully and read the comics until the afternoon.

But the more she worked, the more surprised she became.

Because the quality of the works of these new authors is really good.

Out of curiosity, Hosokawa Koharu asked the specific situation of the senior Daigo Seo.

Then she understood why the author and painter in the original area of ​​Dongye Comics website were so high.

It turned out that most of these people were illustrators from P stations. Several of them saw the news of the trial operation of the Higashino Studio comic platform, so they came over and uploaded the original manuscripts.

In other words, these people already have a foundation in painting.

Now Hosokawa Koharu can finally accept it.

After all, if the original illustrator comes to contribute, it is certainly acceptable to be better at painting.

At the same time, Hosokawa Koharu also found that the workplace atmosphere of Higashino Studio is really good.

Basically, it can be done to the extent that orders are prohibited.

For example, as long as she asks, the staff below can give a detailed answer, unlike some employees in other companies who come to waste their lives, who don’t know what to do.

And as long as she ordered, the staff below could do it truthfully.

The atmosphere is really good.

Hosokawa Koharu nodded secretly.

It just passed by the whole day.

After finishing work, Koharu Hosokawa just wanted to get up and go home.

"Editor Hosokawa, are you free this afternoon? I want to invite you to a meal. Ask me some things by the way."

Higashinoji suddenly pushed open the office door and greeted Hosokawa Koharu with a smile.

"Ah, no problem, I don't have any reservations here."

Hosokawa Koharu nodded indifferently, responding while packing his things.

It was not the first time she and Higashinoji went out to eat together, both of them were familiar with each other.

Hosokawa Koharu was driving, Higashinoji took the co-pilot and soon arrived at a small restaurant.

In fact, neither of them likes high-end restaurants very much.

To put it in a down-to-earth sentence, if someone really wants to go to a meal, how can anyone go to a place where they hold a knife and fork, wear formal clothes, put on makeup on their faces, and feel uncomfortable all over their bodies?

The small restaurant that Higashinoji and Hosokawa Koharu are looking for is pretty good. There are light yellow wallpapers on the walls. It looks like they have been spent last year, and the corners have already been curled up.

A lucky cat is placed in the place where the shoe cabinet is placed next to the door, which looks small and cute.

This restaurant is probably old.

After ordering some meals, Higashinoji started talking to Hosokawa Koharu.

The question he wants to ask is actually very simple, it is nothing more than the operation status of Higashino Studio and the work attitude of the employees.

Of course, Higashinoji knew about these things, but he also knew that some people were for their leaders to see on one side of their work, and on the other side of their work.

As for these questions, Hosokawa Koharu can answer them as well.

Anyway, for Higashino Studio, she is just a newcomer. With Higashinoji, she doesn't have to be afraid of anything.

After Higashinoji asked all the questions, Koharu Hosokawa there picked up a chopstick of Prince Aki and mixed it into the white rice.

She asked while bibimbap: "Teacher Higashino, today should be the first day of trial operation of your Higashino comic platform, right?"

"Hehe, this should not be said to be the 'you' Dongye comic platform, but the 'we' Dongye comic platform."

Higashinoji smiled and pointed out the other party's grammatical problem, but replied: "Yes, today is the first day of trial operation, and the data should be counted tomorrow."

That's right.

Even if Higashinoji has confidence in the Higashino comic platform, everything must be based on actual statistics.

"Is Teacher Higashino very sure?" Hosokawa Koharu asked curiously again.

"Of course I'm sure." Higashinoji replied with a smile: "And since the editor Hosokawa has worked for a day, he should be able to discover the potential of the Internet, a new media."

This rhetorical question made Hosokawa Koharu couldn't help but nod.

It's indeed as Higashiji said.

The Internet is indeed a very promising media.

You can tell by just looking at the contributions for today’s day.

Mingming Tono Manga is just a website that has just been trial operation for one day, and thirty or forty authors have already started to contribute in the original area.

Although many people jumped from P site, the way of submission is convenient and simple can be seen at a glance.

The most important thing is that this kind of online submission is very free.

Some authors only draw more than ten pages in one sentence, while others draw twenty or thirty pages.

This freedom and without the strict page count regulations of traditional publishing industry gives authors more room to display their talents.

Hosokawa Koharu also rarely feels freshness because of this.

But this alone cannot be said that Higashino Manga can rise.

After all, potential is potential.

Everything still depends on the actual data to truly draw conclusions.

Obviously, Higashinoji also knew this. He did not deviate from the data and talked about potential. He just smiled and replied, "Let's wait and see tomorrow's data," and then began to bow his head and have a meal.

He also worked for a day, mainly about the continuous refinement of the original manuscript of "Hansawa Naoki".

Because Higashinoji felt it.

Hostility from Toshima Publishing House Ozawa Hokiki.

If he hadn't expected it, this should be the last comic he'd serialized at Toshima Publishing House.

Because...if Higashino comics can take off, then the next thing may be Higashino Studio and Toshima Publishing House will start to compete.

As the actual owner of Higashino Studio, he could not continue to stay in Toshima Publishing House, right?

So he must portray the following plot of "Hanzawa Naoki" to perfection.

Really make it the number one in Japan in this world!

Similarly, it is also to realize the ideal of Hosokawa Koharu becoming a "famous editor".

Thinking of this, Higashinoji also raised his head and asked Hosokawa Koharu: "By the way, Hosokawa editor, how is the current cumulative sales and average sales of "Hanzawa Naoki"?"

After hearing this, Hosokawa Koharu suddenly became energetic.

If you talk about the Internet, new media and other fields are Higashinoji's fields.

Then the cumulative sales and average sales volume are within her professional scope.

"As soon as you talk about this, I actually have good news to tell Teacher Higashino."

Hosokawa Koharu said happily: "Does Higashino know how many volumes are the first edition of "Hanzawa Naoki" now?"

As she said that, she gestured three fingers: "Three million scrolls."

The meaning of the first edition is actually very simple, it means the "first edition", which means that the single volume of "Hanzawa Naoki" directly reaches three million volumes.

"This is already the record in Japan's number one!"

Hosokawa Koharu said excitedly.

That's right, in this world, the highest sales record for the first edition of Japan is only 2.63 million volumes.

The sales of Higashinoji's "Hanzawa Naoki" have obviously broken this record and have come directly to the top.

Originally, Hosokawa Koharu had to notify Higashiji at the first time, but Higashiji was busy catching the insider at the time, so Hosokawa Koharu did not disturb Higashijiji.

Hosokawa Koharu's words surprised Higashinoji.

He has been busy with the matter of Higashino Studio these days, usually he will write "Hanzawa Naoki" and hand it over to Koharu Hosokawa.

As a result, I didn’t expect that "Hanzawa Naoki" has reached this level.

Three million volumes of first editions...

This is four or five times the works of the general comic magazine pillars.

If a black palace Akisa is used as the unit of measurement.

Then Higashinoji's "Hanzawa Naoki" sales are the sum of four or five Kuromiya Akisa.

"And it's not just that." Hosokawa Koharu laughed twice: "The cumulative sales of "Hanzawa Naoki" from the first volume to the present have reached more than 30 million volumes. It is expected to break the annual sales record."

The laughter sounds a bit rude, but it also reflects Hosokawa Koharu's current mood.

Really in a good mood.

You should know that "Hanzawa Naoki" has only been four or five months since it was serialized, and it has not even been half a year.

Hosokawa Koharu can really see the horror potential of "Hanzawa Naoki" at a glance. Similarly, she also feels that she is getting closer and closer to the "Title of Famous Editor".

"Teacher Higashino, what you said before seems to be really hopeful of realization."

Hosokawa Koharu felt a little moved.

When she discovered "Midnight Bell", she only felt that this author could be the pillar author of Urashima Publishing House.

At that time, she had never thought that Higashinoji could reach this point.

She still remembers what Higashinoji said when he opened "Midnight Bell" and "The Lonely Foodie".

The goal is to become the number one in Japan!

And now it seems... this goal seems to be really not far away.

Similarly, my own dream.

Becoming the first female editor in Japan...is not far away.

Thinking of this, Hosokawa Koharu put down his chopsticks and lowered his head: "Thank you, Teacher Higashino."

She is indeed very grateful to Higashinoji.

Thanks to Higashinoji, she can also raise her head in this publishing house that is full of prejudice against women.

As for Hosokawa Koharu, Higashinoji waved his hand: "I also want to thank Hosokawa editor."

He was also a little sighing.

Fortunately, I found out that the editor of his "Midnight Bell" was Hosokawa Koharu, who had a low status and did not even have the responsibility of the work.

Otherwise, his original wild ideas would probably be rejected by some editors within the industry.

Hosokawa Koharu gave him enough respect and enough creative freedom.

At this point, Higashinoji also thanks Hosokawa Koharu.

The two of them remember the bitterness and sweetness here, but they still understand what is the most important thing now.

On the one hand, it continues to maintain the serial quality of "Hanzawa Naoki".

On the other hand, we have to wait for the member registration and submission data counted by the Dongye Comics platform tomorrow.

At the same time, the data of Toshima Publishing House's comic works should be placed on the Higashino comic platform as soon as possible.

Higashino Studio's data...
Chapter completed!
