Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?.

Chapter 286: Elegant? What elegance?
"Is that what the officials from the Ministry of Culture mean? Occasionally, draw some short comics on their website?" Oda Shingo was quite surprised when he heard the call from Saburo Mikami.

Mikami Saburo was very sure on the phone: [Yes, it was the assistant of Director Yonekura Shunji who communicated with him. The other party was quite clear.]
"..."

If other companies invite him to produce special or short comics, the first thing Oda Shingo would ask about is definitely the remuneration. After all, money makes things easier, but who would have time to play with you if you don't have money?

But when it came to the Ministry of Culture, he did not ask about the royalties.

"Power" and "reward" are words that go hand in hand. Even though the Agency for Cultural Affairs is a very unpopular department in Japan's central provinces and even has a very bad reputation among the public, it is, after all, a department with real power.

A large number of matters involving publishing copyright are controlled by the Ministry of Culture.

In his previous life, Oda Nobuo suffered from lack of support, but later he learned to take advantage of the east wind, which enabled him to live a more comfortable life.

In fact, he did not have a bad impression of the Department of Culture. At least the department had never done anything bad to him and had even shown goodwill in many ways.

Moreover, the current director of the Agency for Cultural Affairs is Shunji Yonekura, who is a big shot in the music industry and has written many musical works. To some extent, he is also a member of the entertainment industry.

"What the other party said implies too much." Oda Shingo analyzed calmly.

[Yes, at least we understand the award.] Mikami Saburo spoke in a brisk voice, and it was obvious that he was in a very good mood.

The Cultural Affairs Agency will hold a manga award ceremony next month, and Oda Shingo's work has been nominated. Now they have taken the initiative to ask him to create a short manga, and the meaning of the expression is obvious.

We are full of good intentions and will share some pork with you. How about we celebrate the New Year together?
Of course! Oda Shingo really wanted to agree right away.

But he still maintained a cautious attitude: "Wait a moment for me to think about it, okay? I'll call you back."

[Of course, I’ll wait for your good news.] Mikami Saburo chatted a little more about the performance of “Spy Play”, and then they hung up the phone.

Oda Shingo put down his phone and immediately turned to ask the mature beauty leaning on a recliner not far away: "Mrs. Yukino, how is your relationship with the Ministry of Culture?"

Mrs. Yukino was lazily reviewing the manuscript. She put it down after hearing this: "Do you need to say hello? I should have a few juniors over there."

Oda Shingo thought that the Japanese society is indeed a complicated network of relationships. "As long as the relationship is good, I want to take advantage of it. Then I would like to ask, is it possible that the enemies of the Ministry of Culture will interfere with our comics business?"

He briefly repeated what Saburo Mikami had said.

Oda Shingo was very cautious and asked quite detailed questions.

If you post specially invited works on the website of the Ministry of Culture, it is definitely an act of taking sides, and it would be bad if you make a strong enemy.

Mrs. Yukino didn't answer for a moment, but tilted her head and thought seriously.

Oda Shingo did not interrupt her thoughts, knowing that she was trying hard to recall what she had remembered.

On the contrary, it was pleasing to watch Mrs. Yukino in deep thought.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her, giving her extremely white skin a layer of gold, adding a touch of elegant and luxurious beauty.

Especially because the body is slightly tilted, it seems that one corner of the kimono is slightly deformed, revealing a shocking plumpness.

Is it a coincidence of the wrinkles on the clothes? Oda Shingo found it hard to believe. If it is really this size, it must be H or above.

It must be an illusion, it can’t fool me!

"The Ministry of Culture has been busy reflecting on itself in recent years and trying to repair its image among the public, so there haven't been any serious external enemies." Mrs. Yukino said slowly, "The internal conflicts within the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology have affected the Ministry of Culture, but not you. If you want to take sides, it won't be a big problem."

It's amazing, she has mastered this much? Oda Shingo knew she must be concerned about the political situation as soon as he heard it: "Thank you very much! So how does Mrs. Yukino feel about the Cultural Affairs Bureau?"

"I don't care whether I like them or not, just go for it." Mrs. Yukino nodded and continued to read the manuscript, and reminded: "Wait for your opinion on the project plan, and whether the contract needs to be revised. After you reply to Saburo Mikami, you should reply to me."

"No problem!" Oda Shingo also knew that Mrs. Yukino had no disputes with him, so he could definitely return the favor to the Ministry of Culture.

But when it comes to whether to reply to Mikami Saburo first or deal with the plan and contract that Mrs. Yukino had given him before, Oda Shingo chose to deal with the latter without hesitation. Springfield Bookstore's peripheral products have always been well managed, and the plan for the release of "Spy Play House" peripheral products is also above average.

First, the enthusiasm of comic fans for the comic series was analyzed, and then based on Shingo Oda's previous stable performance, the market prospects were fully affirmed.

At the same time, market forecasts were also made based on the past performance of peripheral products of similar anime characters.

"You underestimated the area around Anya." Oda Shingo pointed to the market valuation figure above.

[It is expected that within one year of market launch, the sales of Ania stationery peripherals will reach 5 billion yen. 】

But Oda Shingo knew that the peripheral products of "Spy Play House" were very popular in Japan.

Not to mention the entire series of peripheral products, just a few of Anya's desk ornaments generated sales of 5 billion yen.

After reminding Mrs. Yukino to improve her market expectations, he picked up the authorization contract.

After carefully reading it from beginning to end, Oda Shingo had to admit that smart women know how to get things done.

Although they were very familiar with each other, there was nothing wrong with the contract. Instead, the conditions made Oda Shingo's heart move.

He immediately signed the contract, stood up and handed it back to Mrs. Yukino with both hands.

The lazy Mrs. Yukino moved in the recliner, and slowly stood up under the gaze of Oda Shingo.

The mature beauty stood up in an orderly manner, making Oda Shingo feel like she was a moving oil painting, with beauty in every gesture.

Moreover, Oda Shingo noticed that the fullness of the collar seemed to be bulging with fullness, and it was not a coincidence of wrinkles.

Mashaka, is that true...Oda Shingo swallowed his saliva.

He quickly corrected his composure, handed over the contract, and then called Saburo Mikami to reply.

"Sanlang, I've thought about it. Tell me the specific requirements for publishing the short film."
-
The latest issue of "Champion" is out.

In Shingo Oda's "Spy Play House", the plot has officially entered the school examination stage.

Huang Hun and Yue Er pretend to be parents and bring their child Anya to the interview.

The academy's higher-ups, especially the principal, watched the many family members taking the entrance exams.

There are more and more comic fans in bookstores everywhere, and the craze for reading comics continues.

On the Internet, Nobuhiro Arakawa continued to make sarcastic remarks on his personal YouTube column.

However, many comic fans gradually stopped arguing with him.

Instead, many people began to advise:
"Mr. Arakawa, please be graceful."

"Elegant, be elegant!"

"Mr. Arakawa, it is ungentlemanly for you to criticize your peers like this, especially other manga artists who are competing for your position."

Nobuhiro Arakawa's black question mark face.

what?
What elegance?
Why did this word pop up?
