Chapter 334 Decision(1/2)
"Mr. Chu is indeed smart and deserves to be known as the most talented comic genius in the Long Kingdom in the past decade." Qin Bei said with a smile when he heard this.
"You guessed that's right, that's what I meant. But there is one thing Mr. Chu said wrong. You are not a formal employee of Xuangui Comics Club and have not signed any labor contracts with them. How can you come to our Tianji Comics Club to change jobs?"
Qin Bei looked at Chu Yu.
"The relationship between you and the Black Turtle Manga Club is at best in a cooperative relationship. After the serialization of your two comics, the init D and Natsume's friend account was completed, your cooperative relationship ended. You are now a free person. As the editor-in-chief of Tianji Manga Club, it is normal for me to come to recruit excellent cartoonists like you, right?"
When Chu Yu heard this, he wanted to say something, but after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be no refutation.
He and Xuan Turtle were indeed just signing a contract work, and there was no signing person. Although Xuan Turtle had this intention in the later period, after the unhappiness with Cuttlefish, Chu Yu became sensible. Things in the world were unpredictable. Who knew what it would be like in the future, and he also rejected Xuan Turtle's treaty that was generous but lasted for ten years.
"I've said that I have not had any new comics recently. I appreciate the kindness of Editor Qin, but"
"Who said there was no? Don't you have a wonderful adventure work called jojo?" Qin Bei said with a smile.
"Since Xuan Turtle does not agree to serializing this work, you can consider putting it on our platform to serialize it!"
"Ha?" Chu Yu looked at Huang Ming, then looked at Qin Bei.
"Are you interested in jojo?" Chu Yu looked at him in confusion.
"This work is now recognized as my failed work, and I have not even gained the opportunity to serialize it on the Black Turtle."
"Generally speaking, there shouldn't be any comic book club interested in it, right?" Qin Bei said what Chu Yu wanted to say.
Chu Yu nodded.
After all, even the Xuan Turtle, who had a deep relationship with him, showed that he was not interested in jojo, so Chu Yu naturally gave up the comic serialization of this work and prepared to make himself an animation.
But now Huang Ming is making Lelouch and Moyuan theatrical version, so he can't get enough timely, otherwise Chu Yu may have already taken action.
"But as far as I know, your initial evaluation of this work was that it was not inferior to that of the work with the initial text D. However, you must first serialize the jojo prequel before the main content will be published, right!" Qin Bei said.
Chu Yu nodded.
It is not surprising that Qin Bei knew about this kind of news. After all, there are so many people inside the Black Turtle, and there are always a few people who will be related to Qin Bei.
"Do you still believe this?" Chu Yu said in silence for a few seconds.
"Liu Ling, editor-in-chief of Xuangui, was not interested in understanding the main content after reading the prequel of jojo."
"I believe." Qin Bei stared at Chu Yu.
"I haven't read the previous or main articles of jojo, but I have been following you for the past few years. I think, if you are not sure, you will not say such words. Since you say jojo, it is definitely not lost in the initial text. This work has its highlights and has not been discovered. I believe that a genius cartoonist like Shui Xin will not be wrong in your judgment of the quality of your works!"
Qin Bei said something so hard that Chu Yu felt a little embarrassed.
In fact, he himself doesn't know the content of the third part of jojo now, but he guessed from the system's solemn attitude that this work is definitely not simple.
"I am willing to gamble on the quality of the main work of jojo. If Mr. Chu, you are willing to put this work on Tianji Comics Company. For jojo prequel, I can let it be serialized in the second-level comic journal under Tianji until the end. After the plot of jojo prequel, I will immediately let it be serialized in the ace journal "Xuanjing" under Tianji. As for what achievements can be achieved, it depends on your ability. "
"What do you think?" Qin Bei said slowly.
Chu Yu was really moved by what he said.
only
"Forget it," Chu Yu shook his head.
"What are you worried about?" Qin Bei stopped Chu Yu's next words.
"I don't want to be restrained." Chu Yu responded.
"Although there are bad things about the black turtle, it's very free here"
"You are talking about signing the contract, right?" Qin Bei smiled when he heard this.
"This kind of thing is absolutely fine. I can make the decision and let you sign only works with Tianji Comics Club, not long-term contracts about people."
Qin Beidi stopped at this point, and both of them were silent for a moment.
Huang Ming, who was standing beside him, was drinking tea alone, and the sound of sucking tea seemed a little loud.
"I don't understand at all." Chu Yu looked at Qin Bei.
"Why do you have to pull me over with your effort?"
"Tianji Comics Club is not short of comic artists of my level!"
"Two reasons!" Qin Bei spoke directly.
"First, you have great potential in the future, and what I value is your future development."
"Second Liu Ling poached Ye Chun, but I couldn't stand the operation of the black turtle putting you aside. She thought she was too stupid. It just so happened that he poached Ye Chun, and it was nothing wrong for me to use the same method to do it."
"You can try it out and put jojo on Tianji to serialize it. If you cooperate happily with our company after the serialization of this work, you can continue to cooperate in the future. If you think it doesn't work, it doesn't matter if you go back to the black turtle. This kind of thing is very common in the comics industry in Longguo."
"Anyway, think about it!" Qin Bei stood up and handed Chu Yu a business card.
"If you have any intention, call me! I won't bother Mr. Chu!"
After saying that, Qin Bei left.
Seeing that he and Chu Yu were the only ones, Huang Ming began to persuade him.
"Oh, Brother Chu, what are you thinking about?"
"Tianji Comics Company is not only larger than Xuan Turtle, but also has sincerity in the editor-in-chief Qin Bei and Liu Ling. What's there to hesitate about?"
"To be honest, when the news about your new work jojo being rejected by the Xuan Turtle in the past few days, I felt that Xuan Turtle's new editor-in-chief was funny. You have reached this point now, why bother with her?"
"It's not the reason that it's mainly because I'm used to staying here." Chu Yu moved his eyes away from Qin Bei's business card and shook his head.
"I'm used to being stupid." Huang Ming immediately understood what Chu Yu was thinking when he heard this.
"You feel sorry for Li Xi after leaving the Black Turtle, right?"
Chu Yu glanced at him and said nothing.
Huang Ming is right. Chu Yu's words do not have much affection for Xuan Turtle. Xuan Turtle benefits with his works. He uses Xuan Turtle's platform to serialize his works. The relationship between the two parties is just simple mutual benefit and mutual assistance. After clearing the benefits, he and Xuan Turtle do not owe each other.
But to say that, the process of this cooperation is mainly driven by people. Li Xi is not only his comic editor, but also his friend.
"This" Huang Ming touched his head and stopped talking.
Indeed, although Chu Yu's rise basically depends on his own strength, Li Xi also put in a lot of effort to help him, and it would be a bit bad if he ran away like this.
After all, this kind of thing depends on his own choice.
but
The next day, Li Xi's visit caught Chu Yu off guard.
"You have met Editor Qin of Tianji Comics Club, right?" Li Xi looked at Chu Yu.
Chu Yu blinked.
Why are these people so well-informed? F-sup?
"How do you know? Well, that's right, he invited me to Tianji, but I didn't agree." Chu Yu said.
"Editor Qin and I have known each other for a long time. He called me to tell me what he said." Li Xi asked.
When Chu Yu heard this, he suddenly felt that he was too focused on his works on weekdays. Why did these people know each other, but he didn't know anything about it.
Moreover, Qin Bei came over to poach people and called someone else's comic editor to talk about this. This is too arrogant.
"What did Qin Bei say?" Chu Yu asked.
"No, I just told me about your conversation and he also invited me to change jobs in Tianji Comics Club, saying that if that's the case, you will probably come with me!"
"Is it so direct?" Chu Yu felt a little confused about what Qin Bei was doing.
"This is normal. I often receive headhunting calls. The other six comic companies in the Seven Great Manga Company of the Magic City have basically sent me invitations. This is not the first time Qin Bei said this."
"Then your reply is," Chu Yu asked.
"Of course I didn't accept it." Li Xi said.
"Why?" Chu Yu asked.
"Then why don't you accept Qin Bei's invitation?" Li Xidao.
"My words are because Tang Xin has been with her for many years, and I don't feel relieved after leaving!"
"It is precisely because of this that I came to find you, Chu Yu. There are not many people in the Black Turtle, just me and Tang Xin."
"If you decide to reject Tianji and stay with the Black Turtle, I hope you think the Black Turtle is worthy of your stay, rather than being tied by some boring interpersonal relationships. Don't underestimate me and Tang Xin too much. He and I are not so stingy. If you leave the Black Turtle, you will break up with you. Everyone should be friends or friends. After all, even Tang Xin and I may not be able to stay with the Black Turtle for the rest of our lives." Li Xi said seriously.
"Also, you are not signing a contract with Tianji to sell your body. After that, you want to come back, I believe no one will refuse."
"Standing on the identity of a black turtle employee, my duty is to persuade you to stay in the black turtle, but as your friend, I hope you make a decision based on your true thoughts in your heart. After all, comics are your career, and what you need to do in your life is how to manage it well, and you don't need to consider anything else!"
Li Xi said it very clearly. Chu Yu took a deep breath when he heard this.
"I see!"
Li Xi looked at Chu Yu's expression and smiled on his face.
"Just understand!"
"To be honest, I'm a little annoyed that guy Liu Ling. I've told her many times that jojo's work is not that simple, but she can't listen to any opinions."
"Anyway, if Liu Ling does this, jojo will not be serialized in the Black Turtle. If you let this work shine in other places, I would be happy to see Liu Ling's expression at that time."
