"No, Xiangbei actually lost."

"The protagonist Halo has gone to get it. I thought Xiangbei would always win the end, but I didn't expect to lose."

"So too. Fortunately, you can get the tickets for the national competition in the top two, otherwise you will be abusing the master."

...

After the end of the Hunan Sea Battle, there were naturally many comic fans who were dissatisfied, but they were just a little dissatisfied. In addition to Hainan's strength, there were two teams qualifying for the county competition. And in some people's fantasies, they prayed in their hearts that Lingnan would defeat Hainan, and then Xiangbei would defeat Lingnan and Buri a big gap. At that time, the championship of the county competition would not be from Xiangbei, but they were destined to be disappointed.

Although Zhao Chen slightly changed "Slam Dunk", he did not change the plot. In his opinion, the plot of "Slam Dunk" was originally very outstanding and there was no need to change it at all. His main change was to increase the charm of his personal character.

At the end of the Hunan Battle, the sales of "Boys: Sora" began to be fixed at about 6 million, and this achievement has clearly surpassed other comic weekly magazines. You should know that the second "Boys Jump" currently has only more than three million sales per issue. The gap between the two is getting bigger and bigger, and the gap will double if this continues.

It was such an unstoppable situation that led to the acceleration of the alliance between the three major societies, using more connections and some government departments to lobby so that the three major societies can successfully integrate.

Maybe I feel that the integration of the three major societies is difficult to stop, and some comics societies have also begun to form alliances in order to protect themselves.

Compared with these comic clubs that want to protect themselves, Tokugawa Bookstore has not made any moves. Perhaps in their opinion, as long as the alliance with the World Club has not ended, it will be difficult to completely suppress them even if the three major clubs are really integrated. What's more, the two major alliances of the World Club are not all about comics. Kodanshe's main business is novels, while Tokugawa Book focuses on developing entertainment, which makes people laugh and cry. Perhaps for them, as long as it is stable, others are too lazy to care about.

However, compared with the two alliances, Tianxia Society is taking action. Nowadays, Tianxia Society wants to continue to accelerate its expansion. Although its own development is fast, the fastest way is to acquire other comics companies. Tianxia Society has recently made such a plan.

Small and medium-sized comic clubs naturally don’t like it. Even if they acquire it, they won’t be able to enhance the strength of the Tianxia Society, and they may be more likely to drag them down. Therefore, the Tianxia Society’s goal has always been to large comic clubs or comic giants.

Comic giants basically dare not think about it. After all, this kind of comic club not only has strong assets, but also does not sell it easily. Even if the Tianxia Club wants to acquire it, it will be a bit of trouble.

After some secret investigation, Zhao Chen finally set his sights on Akita Bookstore.

Akita Bookstore is one of the large publishing houses in the island country. It has a history of more than 30 years. With the publishing of comics as the pillar, Akita Bookstore has always been strong. It is also under the comic giant and is one of the largest comics clubs. The annual sales volume often accounts for several percentages of the total sales volume of the comic industry, which shows its strength.

However, this is a glorious history in the past. Since the development of the times has improved, Akita Bookstore has been unable to keep up with the pace of the times and has always been unable to grasp the main direction, which directly led to the decline of this large comic club. Especially Zhao Chen's arrival has pushed it further into the abyss.

In the past two years, the publications "TV Animation Magazine" and "Myanimation" of Akita Bookstore have entered the publication closure stage one after another. Not only has the strength of the entire comic club been greatly damaged, but people's hearts are even more fluctuating. Such a decline rate naturally leads to a large number of employees' hearts panic and thinking about the way out.

Similarly, with the rise of the World Society, the comic giants' envy of talents has further reached an unprecedented level. Zhao Chen did too well. He dug up comic artists who would have shined in recent years to the World Society, which led to changes in other comic giants. Instead, he used various methods to dig up various comic talents from these large comic clubs. Then, the large comic clubs that were poached put their ideas on small and medium-sized comic clubs, forming a situation where big fish eat small fish and small fish eat shrimps. But even so, these large comic clubs still couldn't stop declining. Although they dug up talents from small and medium-sized comic clubs, they could not make up for the damage they suffered before, and Akita Bookstore is one of them.

Like Tianxia Society, Akita Bookstore is also located in Chiyoda District. The two are not far apart, so the two clubs usually have some contacts. Therefore, Tianxia Society is still relatively well aware of the current Akita Bookstore, at least they will not be cheated when discussing the acquisition.

After all, Akita Bookstore is one of the large comics clubs, with total assets of around 100 million US dollars. The performance of this comics club was no longer as good as before. The total sales were only 10% of the world's club, and even 10 billion yen was not reached. This situation directly leads to the Akita Bookstore feeling like a sunset. You should know that the Akita Bookstore was almost comparable to the White Spring Club a few years ago.

Although Akita Bookstore is not as good as before, its overall framework is still there, and there are still a few famous cartoonists who still stay loyally at Akita Bookstore. For a comic club, these are the most important things. As for the total sales, as long as there are good cartoonists and comic series, it will not take much time to recover. Of course, this is just for Zhao Chen.

Nowadays, there are Yokoyama Ghost and Mizushima Shinji. Yokoyama Ghost is a cartoonist specializing in history series and is ultimately a comic master. This type of cartoonist Tianxiashe is the most lacking. As for Mizushima Shinji, he is a well-known cartoonist who specializes in baseball comics. His Kaziyuan paintings are indeed quite outstanding. Although there are many such cartoonists Tianxiashe, the only one who can compete with them is Anda Chong. Zhao Chen will naturally not let go of such professional talents, because baseball is the number one sport in the island country, and the audience is quite large. In addition, there are also many baseball fans in the United States. If you use the two according to the market development of Tianxiashe, the value of the two will undoubtedly increase across the board. This is an unquestionable fact.

Tianxia Society has long been able to create gods, and this ability has become more and more powerful with the development of Tianxia Society. In fact, other comic giants also have this ability. However, the premise for creating gods is that the comic artists themselves are excellent and need an excellent work to support them. Otherwise, if they don’t even have the foundation, how can they create gods through publicity offensives? Similarly, the main weekly magazines of each comic giant are most suitable for creating gods, because the circulation of the main weekly magazines is sold at a rate of one million. With such a high sales volume, as long as the quality of the works is good, it will naturally gain a good reputation from a large number of comic fans. Just like Zhao Chen, the reason why Zhao Chen has the current reputation is not only good enough, but also the fuel of "Young Sora".

In addition to wanting to acquire Akita Bookstore, Zhao Chen has another acquisition plan, which is also a comic club. However, the nature of this comic club is similar to that of Baiquan Club, and they are mainly girls' comics, and it is Fangwen Club.

Like Akita Bookstore, this comic club has a long history and has reached the level of a large comic club. It is also the few comic clubs that mainly include girl comics.

Perhaps many people don’t know this comic club, but as long as you have read or heard of the following works, you will know the strength of this comic club, namely "Qingyin Girl", "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan", "Achannel" and other classic girl comics. In the eyes of many comic fans who love girl comics, Fangwen Club is simply the conscience of Baihejie, specializing in Lily Comics for decades.

Of course, it is precisely because of this that the Fangwen Society in later generations was remembered. Although it was not at the level of a comic giant, it seemed that it was not much worse than the Baiquan Society in later generations.
