Chapter 70 Strengths and Weaknesses
"Yan Fei, your author has caused a lot of trouble."
The young man looked in the mirror, touching his oiled hair with a professional smile on his face.
Song Ren, Song Tai's only son. Since last year, Song Tai's health has been deteriorating, so Song Ren was exposed to some of the affairs of the magazine.
"Sorry, there have been a lot of things in the past two days, and there may be some things that I can't take care of. This is my fault." Yan Fei bowed slightly.
"I don't think Shen Xin can be blamed for this matter. After all, Chen Zijiao has gone too far." The editor-in-chief coughed lightly, defending his subordinates.
Sure enough, it has been investigated, but why didn't you tell her?
Yan Fei frowned slightly.
"It's just that the two assistants have changed jobs. It's not a big deal, as long as it doesn't affect Teacher Shen's creation." Song Ren spread his hands and said.
"How could it be unaffected?" Yan Fei suddenly felt angry, "Ms. Shen is the cartoonist of our magazine. Doesn't it make people feel chilling when you say that?"
"Do you know what he means by posting this Weibo? Our two magazines will be involved." Song Ren's eyes widened.
"So... Our author is wronged, so we just need to be silent like a turtle, and then let the cartoonist leave in the end?" Yan Fei said bravely.
"You... you're a turtle!" Song Ren pointed at Yan Fei, angrily, "Xia Chong is beyond words."
Yan Fei raised her head and stared straight at Song Ren. Now that she was in a confrontation with Song Ren, even if she subdued, the other party might not forgive her.
Furthermore, if this was what Shen Xin expected, as the responsible editor, she would also stand by Shen Xin's side.
"Okay, stop arguing." Song Tai waved his hand, interrupting the conversation between Yan Fei and Song Ren, "This matter has come out, and now we have to figure out how to solve this matter."
"Let Teacher Shen delete Weibo." Song Ren sneered.
"You can't do this. If you ask him to delete Weibo, it's equivalent to forcing him to leave." Song Tai shook his finger, "Whether it's for the magazine or for Teacher Shen, it's a lose-lose result."
"Then what should we do? Get used to him?" Song Ren asked back.
"Wait, look at the attitude of "Dreamer" magazine and Chen Zijiao. If they want to fight, we will fight... But we can't lose, and we can't afford to lose." Song Tai said.
"I hope Chen Zijiao can use his brain better, and don't do anything unexpected." Song Ren said helplessly.
"That's his personal wish, and no one else can force him." Song Tai closed his eyes, raised his head after a little thought, and looked at Yan Fei, "I asked you to come here to tell you not to irritate Teacher Shen. .This matter, just do as he wants. But I hope you can take care of him. After all, he is just a college student who has not graduated. "
Yan Fei nodded slightly, and glanced at the editor-in-chief again, noticing that the editor-in-chief signaled her to leave, so she bowed slightly and left the office.
Shen Xin has already played her cards, and it depends on how Chen Zijiao accepts the move.
The conservative approach is to ignore this Weibo, and to be a little more aggressive is to take over this duel.
How would he choose?
Yan Fei also wanted to know the answer.
...
"Snapped!"
Chen Zijiao closed the notebook angrily, thought for two or three minutes, opened the notebook again, and read Weibo again.
"Let's go to war—god tm's to go to war! Don't we just dig you two? Is it necessary?"
Chen Zijiao rubbed the stiff muscles on his face with both hands, feeling angry in his heart.
If it was just this Weibo, Chen Zijiao could choose to accept it or not, but that goddamn Su Han also reposted Weibo, and the number of followers increased accordingly. If he refuses now, doesn't it mean that he is afraid of Shen Xin?
This is absolutely impossible.
So, if he takes up the challenge directly,
Will Wang Wenhong be angry?
After all, he just poached two assistants in a row, which caused Wang Wenhong to criticize him. It was only because Wang Wenhong was the editor in charge of "Shaky" that he bit the bullet and did these two things.
Then facing Shen Xin's challenge, should he accept it or not?
It's hard to choose.
Chen Zijiao hesitated, and even wanted to discuss with Wang Wenhong, but Wang Wenhong came to his studio at this time.
After greeting Ruan Ying and others who were working, Wang Wenhong opened the door and came in.
When Chen Zijiao saw Wang Wenhong, he was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Brother Wang, that kid Shen Xin posted a Weibo in the early hours of this morning..."
"I know, that's why I came here." Wang Wenhong wiped the sweat from his forehead, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it in one gulp.
"Ah?" Chen Zijiao looked confused.
"Opportunity." Wang Wenhong waited for his breath to calm down, and then expressed his point of view.
"What's the meaning?"
Although Wang Wenhong's thoughts coincided with his, Chen Zijiao still wanted to know Wang Wenhong's thoughts.
"The opportunity for "Shaky" to be revived. Shen Xin's Weibo has attracted a certain amount of attention. The popularity brought by the victory can redirect readers' attention to "Shaky" and let it get out of the current predicament. There is a chance for you to wrestle with the newcomers of the three major publications. Accepting this challenge will have two advantages for us, and one disadvantage. The pros and cons are up to you to decide."
"explain."
Chen Zijiao knew that he was easy to get ahead sometimes, so it was best to leave it to Wang Wenhong to analyze the situation and think of ideas.
"The first advantage lies in "Shaky" itself. Because the big frame of the story was written by Su Han, but we have rewritten the whole story now, so no one can be sure about the direction of the story. As time goes by, This kind of uncertainty will be even greater. Even, it may be further and further away from "Y's". But if we can solve "Y's" before the popularity is lost on a large scale, we can have enough time to redesign the name , pulling the reader back."
Chen Zijiao nodded. He is really struggling now, and readers are losing interest in "Faltering". They don't know when they will abandon this comic.
"The second advantage is that "Shaky" was released four episodes earlier than "Y's", and the cover of the next booklet is already being designed. Shen Xin's winning condition is the sales volume of the booklet in the early morning of February 1st. At that time, the second volume of "Shaky" has been released for more than half a month, and it is still unknown whether the second volume of "Y's" will be released. Now the sales of "Y's" are only slightly ahead, but if we add the second volume of "Shaky" The sales volume of the second volume is hard to say, right?"
Chen Zijiao snapped his fingers, "That's right! From these perspectives, I do have an advantage. Then what are my disadvantages?"
"Don't forget, there will be a new serial in the first issue of the new year. Due to the continuous weakness of "Shaky" magazine, the magazine is going to use that comic as a new signboard. At that time, "Shaky" will naturally focus on it Go down. But Shen Xin has no such worries, so she can give it a go." Wang Wenhong sighed.
"Wait, isn't the new serialization you're talking about..."
"Teacher Gong Yan's new comic "National Football Coach"." Wang Wenhong said.
"That is to say, my advantage comes from the outside, but my disadvantage is caused by the inside of the magazine? That old bastard Gong Yan..." Chen Zijiao's eyes were bloodshot, and he turned to look at Wang Wenhong, "Brother Wang, you won't abandon me, Right?"
"How is it possible, I am your responsible editor, and I will definitely advance and retreat with you. However, I also remind you that this is the best chance for "Shaky" to win against "Y's". If there is no way to win it this time, Then you just finished this book? Besides, you just recruited two assistants, who are better than Gao Hang, and the quality of the manuscripts drawn will be greatly improved. Don’t you have confidence?"
Chen Zijiao looked at Wang Wenhong in surprise, but found that his expression was serious, so he knew that his attitude was serious, and he was at a loss for words for a while.
Indeed, now the single volume of "Shaky" has been surpassed by "Y's", if you don't fight, it will be difficult for "Shaky" to return to the top.
Give it a go, turn your bicycle into a motorcycle, in case... you will definitely win.
After thinking over and over again, Chen Zijiao nodded, "I see, let's fight to the death!"
