Chapter 119 "Death Note"
Shueisha, "Shounen Jump" editorial department.

A group of editors are meeting again to discuss Shin Seijuro's new work.

Yesterday, when Yuichi Nakayama went to Shinseijuro to get the original manuscript of "Naruto", Shinseijuro expressed his intention to serialize another work at the same time, and at the same time gave him the manuscript of the new work "Death Note".

Yuichi Zhongshan has already discussed this work with editor Tomoaki Nagato, and it does have selling points. The painting style and lines are also very mature, and it looks like a work that has been carefully crafted.

If this is a newcomer's contribution, they will definitely welcome it, and sign the contract immediately without further ado, but the problem is that it was brought up by Jin Qingjuro!
While the deal was in place when it was originally negotiated, the thinking was that he would soon walk away from the pressure of renewal.Who would have thought that he would want to double open so soon!

""Naruto" has just gained popularity, and I think he should focus all his energy on this work now!" Deputy editor-in-chief Isamu Nakano voted against it without hesitation.

"He can guarantee the update." Although Yuichi Nakayama did not suggest that Jin Qingjuro double open, and tried his best to persuade him, but at this moment he stood in the position of Jin Qingjuro.

"The ability to update now does not mean it will always be possible. He has not encountered the rookie wall yet! In addition, for a work, it is not only the update speed that needs to be guaranteed, but the quality is more important!" Nakano's reason is very good.

"The quality is above the standard!" Yuichi Zhongshan said immediately.

After all, he had promised him this condition during the negotiation, and he showed a very firm attitude, fearing that if he refused, it would trigger his resistance.

A genius is always arrogant, let alone a young manga artist with a full-fledged spirit.

"Where are the others?" Men Zhizhao didn't comment on the opinions of the two, but instead asked other editors.

"I think I can give it a try." Yu Konishi, Yuichi Nakayama's monitor.

"I think it's better to persuade him to concentrate on the work of "Naruto", so as not to waste the great advantage." Osamu Ikegani, monitor of the 2nd team.

The rest of the people expressed their opinions one after another, and most of them agreed with Nakano Isamu.

This kind of thing is still safe.

After all, the editorial department plans to place its future on Shin Seijuro.Although he is not the only candidate, he is the most promising one, and we don't want him to have too much trouble.

Nakayama Yuichi had no choice but to pin his hopes on Menchiaki, who had an unclear attitude.

As the editor-in-chief, he can forcibly suppress everyone's opinions!

However, for such a very risky choice, he should not exercise this power, otherwise he would not convene this meeting.

"Let me tell you my opinion." Just as Zhongshan Yuichi was thinking about how to appease Shin Seijuro, Men Zhizhao said slowly, "There is no doubt that Shin Seijuro is a truly talented manga artist. That kind!"

The sudden high praise made everyone startled.

However, considering that he has produced two such excellent works in a row, and he is still a complete newcomer, this praise does not seem to be too much.

Otherwise, I and others would not sit here and hold a separate meeting for him alone.

"So I decided to serialize this work in the monthly magazine!" Men Zhizhao actually exercised his discretionary power, but immediately comforted Nakano and others: "After all, this is the condition we promised him at the beginning. If you want to blame, you can only blame us. But we can't be dishonest people!"

In a word, Nakano immediately swallowed the words that had reached his lips.

indeed.

As the editorial department of Shueisha, they cannot lose their trust in manga artists!

"Editor Zhongshan is still in charge." Men Zhizhao said taking advantage of the situation.

"Yes, I will try my best to urge him to ensure the update and quality of "Naruto"!" Yuichi Zhongshan stood up excitedly and replied.

Distinguish between primary and secondary.

"The meeting is over!" Men Zhizhao got up and said.

This meeting was held just to see everyone's attitude.

As a result, as expected, everyone's thinking is still somewhat conservative.It's not that he trusts Shin Seijuro so much, but that if Shueisha wants to restore its past glory, it must break the mold and use talents in an eclectic way.

A genius must have a genius usage!
Generalizing with mediocrity can only destroy geniuses!
Jinqing Juro's treatment can also play the role of buying bones with a lot of money, attracting more talents to come.

The timing of his appearance was too good, it was the period when Shueisha was eager for change. If it was the previous editor-in-chief, no matter how talented he was, he would not be treated like this.

After walking out of the conference room, Yuichi Zhongshan sent him a message to announce the good news immediately.But more is to repeatedly tell him that "Naruto" is the root.

Men Zhizhao also called him personally, telling him the news, and at the same time telling him about Zhongshan Yuichi's efforts for him.

Interests are important, but as he described in "Naruto", the bonds between people are also very important.

All editors will pay attention to the works that can be serialized in the weekly magazine. The success of "Naruto" is the fundamental reason why he can get these treatments!
Although Jinqing Juro has a bit of a salty personality, he understands basic human relationships and sophistication. He expressed his gratitude to Mon Zhizhao, and after making some guarantees, he specially called Zhongshan Yuyi to thank him.

Men Zhizhao's pattern is in the whole "Youth Jump", the preferential treatment for him is based on performance considerations, and Nakayama Yuichi is more pure.If it was just for performance considerations, Yuichi Zhongshan would stop him from double opening instead of speaking for him in the conference room.

He understands all this.

Men Zhizhao also understood, so he called him to let him know.

This favor is owed.

……

a week later.

"Death Note" is officially serialized on "Jump SQ", which was formerly "Monthly Shonen Jump".

The reason why Men Zhizhao chose "Jump SQ" is not only because of the energy problem of Jin Seijuro, but also because "Jump SQ" has relatively loose editorial regulations, some of which have social problems, terrorism, violent descriptions, etc. have a strong impact All works are serialized here.

The original manuscript of "Death Note" handed over by Shinsei Juro to the editorial department is a full 45 pages, which is enough to show its core idea, and it is not too much to define it as "social problems".

Although "Weekly Shonen Jump" is more popular, there are quite a few people who like "Jump SQ", and there are even a group of loyal fans, just to read some works that are not in the weekly magazine.

Although the name "Death Note" is a bit clichéd, it has to be said that it is very eye-catching and successfully attracted their attention.

A boring Grim Reaper, a boring high school student, can actually have such a chemical reaction!
Mysticism, death, revenge and many other dark emotional factors captured the hearts of many readers in an instant.
