Chapter 461: Changes in the Darkness(2/2)

As the name suggests, the person who can sit in that position and be called the president is the actual person in charge of Hongshu Planning Co., Ltd. - Akane Benisaka.

The president is just an insignificant title. In essence, he is a super popular cartoonist and original author. He is also a producer, director and a dark creator in all positions.

In addition, she is also a famous fan club——

The founder and current representative of "rouge en rouge".

Logically speaking, a person with so many titles and resumes, who is regarded as the "ultimate form of a creator" in the industry, is absolutely respected by others.

Being admired by others also means being unattainable and full of majesty.

However, if it is placed in this messy room...

emmm…

It can only be said to be a bit majestic, but not much.

After all, the environment here is really damaging to the client's glamorous image. If it were exposed, it would definitely shock people and disillusion many fans who regard him as an idol.

Although if that kind of thing really happens, the person involved won't care...

"Yes, all the market research you want about "Chainsaw Man" is already here."

The graceful female secretary said respectfully, turning a blind eye to the mess around her, as if she had long been accustomed to it.

"Well, let's pick out the key parts and read them to me first. I'll look at the details later."

"yes!"

The female secretary who received the instruction nodded in agreement, opened the file in her hand, and then began to report.

"First of all, the current issue of "Young Undead" has a very rapid growth in sales. It has reached 900,000 copies and is still rising. The analysis is due to the influence of the five-serial series of "Chainsaw Man"."

Haha~ A deep chuckle sounded.

"This is to be expected. After all, the five-serial gimmick Immortal Sichuan has been hyped since last week. Growth is just an inevitable result. The manga editorial department will probably be laughing from ear to ear."

"Yes, the report also reached this conclusion. If "Chainsaw Man" can continue to run for five consecutive years while maintaining quality, it is expected that its popularity will continue to rise."

The female secretary first expressed her affirmation, and then continued:

"But it is still only the first phase, and the follow-up situation is not yet clear. After all, this kind of precedent is too rare. If it is unsustainable, the effect of the surge will probably fall back."

Akane Hongsaka nodded, not denying this, and it was also true.

After all, once you give readers too much expectation, if you fail to produce enough manuscripts by then, it will not only lead to a crisis of trust due to broken promises, but will also have an impact on the popularity and reputation of the work.

For Japanese companies, especially those with a certain size, nothing is more serious than the crisis of trust.

Even if it seems like a trivial matter to ordinary people, if it does happen, someone will be punished for it, which will lead to a chain reaction of the entire leadership collectively apologizing in front of the media.

It is precisely because of this worry that Fusukawa's attitude on this matter has always been ambiguous and secretive.

Even during the hype, some escape routes were reserved, and I did not dare to directly boast that it would always be a five-serial series in the future.

Otherwise, if something unexpected happens, no one will be able to take the responsibility.

"--so."

The female secretary spoke again:

"According to the conclusions obtained from the analysis and investigation, it will take at least one to two years for "Chainsaw Man" to be truly completed. This is also the normal serialization cycle of other medium-length comics, with basically no exceptions."

"It's hard to say this." Akane Kurisaka smiled intriguingly, "Doesn't it basically mean there won't be any in the future?"

"Eh--?"

"That little guy has a good personal relationship with me, and I know him somewhat. As long as he is not pestered by Yingyingyanyan, maybe he can really do it."

The so-called woman only affects the speed of drawing the sword, nothing more.

If you want to become stronger, you have to be focused.

It's best to shave off all your hair.

Although you will become bald, you will definitely become stronger!

Akane Hongsaka imagined that scene in her mind for a moment, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly unconsciously.

After thinking about it carefully, let it go. Although it would be interesting to shave that little bastard's head, it is more eye-catching like this.

While she was thinking about this, she took out her mobile phone and sent an email to someone:

【Would you consider shaving your head bald?】

Then she put down her phone and gave the secretary a continuing look, and then the female secretary continued knowingly.

"To sum up, the report believes that the five-serial series is unsustainable. Finally, you are concerned about the copyright transaction and future income."

"According to the price you proposed, although "Chainsaw Man" still has profit potential in the future, the payback period will be quite long. Under the same conditions, there are many other excellent works that can be invested at the same time, so the report concludes that it is not suitable to buy."

The female secretary said this, closed the document, and stood quietly, waiting for instructions.

Akane Hongsaka remained silent, just lit a cigarette silently and fell into thinking.

The office became quiet for a while.

Gray smoke climbed upward.

She took a puff of cigarette, leaned back against the soft backrest of the seat, and put her feet on the desk in an awkward manner.

The smoke swayed, and the sexy face was looming in it, and the face was a little uncertain.

Almost when a cigarette is almost finished...

Buzz——

The cell phone on the table suddenly rang, breaking the silence in the office.

I picked up my phone and looked at it, and the reply to the previous email came into my eyes.

[Full Score Cowherd: My little aunt’s brain is broken?]

With a "poof" sound, Akane Hongsaka burst into laughter, like a warmly blooming rose.

It was nothing for her to smile like this, but the female secretary who had been waiting quietly was shocked. Her eyes widened in shock, and then she quickly lowered her head, trying her best to control her expression, and at the same time secretly raised her ears to listen.

Unfortunately, her boss didn't say anything, which made her a little disappointed.

After laughing for a while, Akane Benisaka put down her phone, put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and said bitterly:

"Get ready and call the media for me."

"Huh? President, what do you mean..."

"I want the copyright of "Chainsaw Man". I will first choose a few familiar media to reveal it. When will it be released? I will tell you later."

The female secretary blinked her eyes first, and finally bowed respectfully.

"Okay, I understand, then I'll make arrangements, President."

She did not refute this. Although she still had the report in her hand, it was meaningless now.

After all, apart from Akane Benisaka, this company actually only has clerks and managers like her, and no one who understands R&D, so Akane Benisaka is basically in charge of the overall situation.

Her boss hated it when people raised objections in front of her, so she just put the report on her desk obediently, then turned and walked out.

As he was about to go out, a smiling murmur suddenly floated into his ears.

"Since you've been doing well recently, I'll give you some fire as a gift~"

The female secretary's footsteps paused briefly, but she immediately returned to normal and walked out quickly.
Chapter completed!
