Chapter 160. Strange, so strange (4000 words)(1/2)
"Editor Hosokawa! The number of positive votes for readers of "The Victor is Justice" has come out."
The female employee who was responsible for printing the cashier form called Hosokawa Koharu, and then submitted a printed form.
Hearing this, Hosokawa Koharu immediately threw down the work at hand and thanked him: "Okay, please trouble you." Then he hurriedly reached out to take it and looked over carefully.
The first thing that catches your eye is the familiar words.
"The Winner Is Justice" reads the first praise...
This is nothing good to look at.
Since Koharu Hosokawa took over "The Winner Is Justice", this manga has always been the best-rated readership among "The Cold", and the ranking has hardly changed.
The most important thing is the latter-
Hosokawa Koharu glanced at the string of words behind "The Victory Is Justice".
Then...
"It's really rising." Hosokawa Koharu rubbed his eyes, looked at the shaky 678 votes behind "The Victor is Justice", and muttered to himself.
Compared with the previous 671 votes, a total of 7 votes increased.
Perhaps many people think that just 7 votes does not mean anything at all, but you should know that in the already stable ranking, it is rare to increase the number of votes even if there are three or four votes.
"The Winner Is Justice" this time was a small increase, but this small increase made Koharu Hosokawa excited.
She immediately called Higashinoji and shouted excitedly: "Teacher Higashino! The number of positive votes for readers of "The Winner is Justice" has increased by 7 votes compared to last week!"
"Is that true?" Higashinoji raised his eyebrows when he received the call, and it was rare that he did not continue to answer.
Is the unit drama mode of "The Winner Is Justice" too fixed? Even if Higashinoji reveals the main plot, it will increase by 7 votes.
Could it be that the plot lacks that particularly exciting explosive point? Then you have to think of a way to make readers excited.
Higashinoji was thinking here, and Hosokawa Koharu was happy for a while. Hearing Higashinoji didn't speak here, he asked strangely: "Teacher Higashino, are you unhappy?"
You should know that the number of votes in "The Winner is Justice" has always been fixed. It is a huge joy to suddenly appear. Shouldn't you be happy?
At least Hosokawa Koharu felt that this should be happy.
"No, I'm actually quite happy." Hearing Hosokawa Koharu's question, Higashinoji reacted and replied with a smile.
Although he was really not excited to hear this result, he still had to take care of Koharu Hosokawa's emotions.
You can't report good news here, do you report bad news there?
Higashinoji's emotional intelligence is not that low.
But Koharu Hosokawa over there clearly noticed what Higashinoji was thinking. She pondered and asked, "Although I think this momentum is pretty good at the moment... Teacher Higashino, do you have any other solutions?"
She still agrees with Higashinoji's aggressive spirit of active creation.
"The next plot is about to enter the climax stage... No, I want this comic to start from now on, and climax all the way to the end."
Higashinoji thought about the answer.
"The Victor is Justice" has only been drawn in the tenth chapter of the current episode, and it has just entered the theme.
But if there are 10 votes and 7 votes each time, Higashinoshi will be a little unacceptable.
From now on, he will focus more on the creation of "The Winner is Justice", draw the momentum of each episode as the last episode, and climax all the way to the end.
But this will definitely increase the workload.
Hosokawa Koharu understood his voice-over, hesitated for a while and nodded: "I understand, Teacher Higashino, but be sure to pay attention to your health."
She was a little worried about Higashinoji's health, but she still respected the other party's choice.
"I understand." Higashinoji responded with a smile.
It’s not that he wants to fight, but now it’s in 2003.
It's the cold winter of Japanese comic scripts.
There are very few good comics on the market, and Higashinoji must take advantage of this period to cut a large piece of cake from the market.
Just like the later generations of the Celestial Empire, when I saw the useless man breaking the engagement, I remembered "Fighting Break the Sky". When Higashinoji also wanted others to see the lawyer-type professional comics, I thought of his "The Winner Is Justice".
As for "Midnight Bell", I won't talk about the most popular horror comics in Japan now, there is no such thing as it is.
He made up his mind here and began to carefully prepare for the painting of "The Victor is Justice".
In Higashinoji's opinion, there is no problem with the plot of the comic "The Winner Is Justice".
What is missing now is the simple improvement of details.
Including lines, characters, behavior and actions... Higashinoshi began to pay attention to these things, and used twelve points of effort to carefully craft them.
In this way, in the next few weeks... "The Winner Is Justice" attracted many young people who paid attention to "The Cold".
Another conversation between Kensuke Komime and Machiko Daima.
"Money and power are inseparable, and rich people have power." Kensuke Komime stretched out his waist soothingly, and then asked Daimachiko: "Do you know why?"
Kensuke Komime, who was restored with exquisite brushwork and extremely realistic style, was like a living person standing in front of readers.
Dai Zhenzhizi hesitated and couldn't say a word.
But soon, Kensuke Komime gave the answer: "Because people will squeeze into places where they are rich. In this country, rich people will be regarded as bad people."
"So, flattering politicians proclaimed honest politics to this foolish people, and the foolish people supported this politics. As a result, there were more politicians who were incapable and knew nothing, so the people began to sigh again that Japanese politicians were not good. But in fact? Are these people who claimed clean politics not making money? You must know that the income of an ordinary county councillor is enough to make him go to the Ginza Club to eat, drink and have fun every day."
Kensuke Komime crossed his hands and sat on the sofa.
His every move, the Japanese society he saw seemed to have come alive under Higashinoji's writing.
He sarcastically sarcastically and jokingly showed Daimachiko the bloody reality in Japanese society, then patted her head and told her with a smile, "You can still dream of justice, but that's the reality."
This is what Kensuke Komime does.
Moreover, under Higashinoji's deep-seated portrayal, the already spicy and sensitive topics are even more exciting!
Because for most people, these things are actually what they know, but they have never faced them... To be precise, they are unwilling to face them directly.
The methods of politicians are dirty, otherwise why would everyone be willing to climb up? Do you really think that the slim wages of MPs can afford them to eat, drink and have fun at the Ginza club every day? Do you really think that politicians are doing charity?
Higashinoji just took out all these social phenomena and put them in front of many people.
To be honest, when Hosokawa Koharu posted this episode, he was still worried about whether it would cause social problems... After all, this topic is still relatively sensitive.
But unexpectedly, what she was worried about did not happen, but "The Winner Is Justice" once again increased the popularity.
As the social dissemination of the topic became more and more widespread, some interested social critics also noticed this comic - this group of people are the kind of people who have nothing to do, scold the unlucky prime minister of Japan for nothing to criticize the social phenomenon, then lie down and get the money, and then spray the unlucky prime minister.
Seeing that "The Winner Is Justice" has become more socially popular.
Of course they also have to come and pick a few unlucky MPs to squirt: "I also read "The Winner is Justice". The kind of useless politicians mentioned in the comics do have them in reality, such as XXX and XXX, and that unlucky prime minister is the same."
This is not a joke. The Japanese social critics will curse politicians if they have any trivial matters, especially the Japanese Prime Minister, who have been targeting the fire in recent years - anyway, as long as the scolding has a high status, readers will buy it.
Originally, the topic of "The Winner Is Justice" ends in comics, animations and circles that like to watch TV series.
But it would be completely different for these social critics to come out as soon as they come out.
And the people who didn't know anything..., including those who didn't know the comic "The Winner is Justice", were all surprised.
Is Japan led by such a group of people?
Is our country's internal system corrupt?
You should know that Japan is a country where consumption has to be paid taxes. Many people follow the crowd and listen to the wind and rain. Many people really believe it.
The topic of "The Winner Is Justice" has been on the credibility list again...
"The Winner Is Justice" Chapter 11 695 votes!
700 votes in twelve chapters!
Chapter 13 713 votes!
Looking at this data, to be honest, Hosokawa Koharu was a little confused.
The initial increase was predictable. Although it was surprising, it did not fluctuate much. But later, she couldn't understand the increase at all...
She thought of what Higashinoji said in the previous three weeks-
We must do our best to continue to challenge the climax.
This is the answer given by Higashinoji...?
Even in the type of unit drama, he can draw unit dramas with fun.
And at the same time.
"This time "The Winner is Justice" is really good! I was not interested in it before, so you can take a look." A male Mi Mi college student whispered to the male college student next to him.
"Hey...? Are you sure? I remember you were a fan of Mr. Higashino before, right? The "Aversion to Cold" and Mr. Higashino's single-book are almost half a person taller than me when I was put down. Aren't you lying to me?"
"This is not the point, the point is that this time "The Winner is Justice" is really good."
"Okay, I'll buy a copy of "Aversion to Chill" later... What about Da Zhijun?"
"I said I'm going to buy beer and fried chicken, so I'll go to his house to celebrate tonight."
To be continued...
