Editor-in-chief Seo comes with scars and then regains his energy and leaves.

When I left, I was energetic and looked like I was reborn.

However, the editors and authors in Toshima Publishing House did not know that they invisibly inspired the enemy, Editor-in-Chief Seo.

Because before that

"Hmm? An exclusive interview with the author of "Hashi" comics?"

Higashinoji did not wait for the date of the release of the single-line book, but instead waited for such news that surprised him a little.

"Yes, Teacher Higashino is already December this year and is almost over, so I want to find some comic authors to conduct special interviews."

Hosokawa Koharu explained the reason there.

"Is that true? But it's okay if you don't look for me, right?"

Higashinoji spoke up and wanted to shirk.

He was not interested in conducting any exclusive interviews with comic authors, and felt that this thing was a simple waste of time.

After all, he went to a TV station to cooperate with "Midnight Bell" and "Lonely Foodie" to record an exclusive interview program last year.

Although it ended safely, he always felt that he was not very happy, so he basically spoke out and refused to do anything similar.

On the other side, Koharu Hosokawa heard Higashinoji's words and could only smile helplessly, and explained.

"Teacher Higashino, this time it was not the TV station outside to look for you, but the exclusive interview activity of our "Hashi" comic magazine."

"Oh, it's like this. Isn't it even more okay? Editor Hosokawa, please give me an excuse. Isn't it enough to just go through a little perfunctory?"

Higashinoji was even less concerned after hearing this.

After all, the so-called "Hashi" comic magazine's exclusive interview is actually equivalent to a publisher asking some readers' questions to the author, and the author answers it. Finally, the publisher summarizes these answers and puts them into the magazine as part of the comic magazine's content.

This is something that every comic writer will encounter. Basically, as long as the comic writer is serialized, he will show his face in our comic magazine (draw a cartoon character as his avatar), which is already a duty that a comic artist should fulfill.

only

In the era of Yuurajima Press, there was always an exception, and that exception was

"It's you, Teacher Higashino." Hosokawa Koharu sighed deeply.

Every time the above task comes down, I hope Higashinoji can accept an interview with the editorial department, and Koharu Hosokawa has worked hard.

Because Higashinoji basically refuses it every time.

And the reasons are too much more than the other.

At first, Higashinoji still seriously said that he was not feeling well and he had to draw comics and could not accept interviews.

Later, Higashinoji simply hurts his hands, feet, and shoulders. Anyway, there is no place in his body that doesn’t hurt, and it’s common to go to the hospital for examination.

It’s like the authors who couldn’t find an excuse to ask for leave, so they made it hard.

In the end, Higashinoji simply didn't even bother to look for excuses and asked Hosokawa Koharu to help him refuse.

Because it was Higashinoji's request, Hosokawa Koharu would certainly take it seriously.

She helped Higashinoji for about seven or eight times, but this kind of perfunctory is also limitless.

Because Higashinoji is a well-deserved author of the pillars, whether in the era of the Jiurajima Publishing House or in the current era of the Tomojima Publishing House.

Especially now that "Hanzawa Naoki" is very popular.

Readers have many questions to ask Higashinoji about Higashinoji's readers even put two large boxes in their letters.

This kind of cry cannot be suppressed, and the more you press, the more intense it becomes.

Now, it is difficult for Hosokawa Koharu to help with perfunctory things.

After all, there is no author who has been serialized for two or three years and is unwilling to answer readers' questions in his own magazine?

It is probably only Higashinoji in the world.

Listening to Koharu Hosokawa's explanation, even Higashinoji felt that it seemed a bit inappropriate to continue perfunctory.

Although he doesn't feel ashamed, after all, accepting questions from comic readers is an obligation that comic authors should fulfill.

He has been pushing it for two years, and it is indeed a bit inappropriate to push it again.

Thinking of this, Higashinoji finally let go: "Okay, I understand the specific situation, so editor Hosokawa, am I here now?"

"Hey? No, it's already great if you can accept an exclusive interview with Mr. Higashino. Next, you can stay at home and wait for me to come over."

Hosokawa Koharu opened his mouth and stopped Higashinoji's idea of ​​moving.

"No, I'll go there now. I'll handle this matter earlier and I can go home and continue to complete my work."

Higashinoji stood up and said.

He still has something to do, and it is not his style to waste time while sitting at home.

"Okay, if Teacher Higashino wants to come over, we can do it here too. Please rest assured, at most you just ask more than a dozen questions."

Hosokawa Koharu comforted him, then greeted Higashinoji for a while before hanging up the phone, turning around and preparing to ask questions about the paper and pen to use and the readers' questions prepared by each editor.

I'm really excited.

Hosokawa Koharu sighed in his heart.

After all, this is not only the first time Higashinoji has been interviewed by comic magazines, but also her first time interviewing Higashinoji. She actually has always wanted to ask Higashinoji many questions about comics.

Now that she finally got the chance, she is in a good mood.

She sorted out the problem card a little.

There is actually no difficulty in this problem.

Most of the time I want to ask Higashinoji whether there are any difficulties when drawing comics, or how Higashinoji thinks his work is like.

So Hosokawa Koharu didn't think this was a difficult errand.

After sorting out the problem cards, Hosokawa Koharu chatted with several editors from the Old Fuji Publishing House who cares more about Higashinoji.

They were also a little curious about what kind of answers Higashinoji would give as the leader in the comics industry today.

It was during this chat that Higashinoji, who was interviewed today, finally arrived at Toshima Publishing House.

"Editor Hosokawa."

Higashinoji smiled and greeted Hosokawa Koharu, but at the same time he couldn't help but look at the editors beside her.

He saw these editors once the last time he came to visit.

At that time, he always felt that these editors were staring at him, why is it them again this time?

Higashinoji frowned and wondered whether he was not a giant panda or a beautiful girl.

It makes no sense for these people to stare at him.

Fortunately, Hosokawa Koharu greeted Higashinoji in time and sat down, poured him a glass of water to moisten his throat, and laid the foundation for the next answer.

When Higashinoji nodded and indicated that there was no problem, Hosokawa Koharu then drew the first problem card and began to ask questions through the process:

"So this is the first question. Did Mr. Higashino encounter any difficult problems in drawing "Hanzawa Naoki"?"

This is a very formulaic question selected by the publisher.

It is also one of the best questions the author has to answer.

Generally speaking, the author will be a little modest at this time. Even if there is no problem in the painting process, he still needs to process a small amount of artistic problems and compile it.

After all, the more you blow the difficulties, the more you will be able to arouse the sympathy and resonance of readers, and feel that this work is hard-won.

Then

"There is no big deal to draw the whole chapter of "Hanzawa Naoki".

"Oh?" Hosokawa Koharu opened his mouth and looked at Higashinoji in a little surprised: "Teacher Higashino, you"

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Higashinoji turned his head and asked.

"You can be a little more modest here." Hosokawa Koharu reminded.

"Don't be humble, after all, I really didn't encounter any problems." Higashino waved his hand and replied simply.

Well

Hosokawa Koharu hesitated for a while, and wrote Higashinoji's answer in the recording book on the side.

Then, she drew the second question card.

"How many points can Mr. Higashino give his work?"

OK! This is also a formulaic problem, and it is one of the most formulaic problems.

It's definitely not difficult to answer.

Even if Higashinoji scored 100 points for his work, no one would say anything.

After all, "Hanzawa Naoki" is indeed the full-score answer to Japanese comics today.

This time, there will be no trouble, right?
