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

Chapter 417: Koyama Noritaka's Defeat
The chaebol group that oversees Qun Ying Sha finally couldn't stand it anymore.

In the past six months, the reputation of the Qun Ying Society has been severely damaged.

According to market valuation conducted by relevant institutions, the total value of Qunyingshe decreased by 27% after Koyama Noritaka came to power.

Although it is less than one-third, it is definitely a very serious management mistake for a joint-stock company.

The key point is that the media's favorability rating has also reached an all-time low.

The name Oda Shingo is the hottest name in the current comics industry, but it has become the most painful point for Qun-Eisai.

"Ask me how I feel about the Qun Ying She? Oh, after Oda-sensei is gone, I don't have any feelings at all."

"Qun Ying She? Sorry, I'm not watching "Jump" right now, I'm watching "Champion"."

"As long as Mr. Oda doesn't come back to Qun Ying Sha, I won't buy Qun Ying Sha's publications anymore."

This is the report that the market research agency gave to the consortium, which contains the opinions of some comic fans.

Earlier, Noritaka Oyama invited Rumiko Kurokawa, but it did not achieve the best results. He was not able to overshadow Shingo Oda, but instead made both magazines of Springfield Bookstore very popular.

At least Noritaka Oyama was pinned to the ground and rubbed by Nobuo Oda, and Rumiko Kurokawa couldn't protect him, so the Qun Ying Sha paid a high fee to hire someone.

"It was Hayato Hyakki who harmed me! It was Shingo Oda who harmed me! I did nothing wrong!" Noritaka Koyama stood outside the headquarters of the Qun Ying Sha, gazing at the building where he once was the king of the mountain with gritted teeth.

In the decades of history of the company, no one at the helm has ever left the position due to incompetence.

But he left in a state of disgrace and embarrassment.

If it wasn't for Hayato Hyakki who was trying to sow discord between me and the newcomer Oda Shingo, how could things have gotten so tense? Maybe I would have been able to recruit him as my mentor!

It's not my fault! It's all because of Hayato Hyakki that I was influenced by him! Oda Shingo is also unruly and refuses to listen to the orders of his seniors!

Koyama Noritaka still isn't convinced.

He turned and left angrily. The standard president's car no longer served him.

His only choice was to take the tram.

But when walking in the city, you can occasionally hear the shouts of children.

"I'm a weirdo! You bald caped man, just prepare to die!"

"Continuous normal punches!"

This is a boy's voice.

Another little girl waved a stick and shouted, “My name is Megumin, the Supreme Almighty Ruler… Answer my request and show me your power! Explosion!”

Xiaoshan Zelong stopped and stared blankly at a few children under ten years old fighting.

Aren’t the lines they playfully use the same words from Oda Shingo’s comics?
How is it possible that it is just a comic, but it has already been popularized by children? Isn't that something that can only happen after it is animated? And it is not a special drama, but children also like it?
That's not right! "KonoSuba: God's Blessing to This Wonderful World" should not be watched by children! I want to report it! Yes, report it!
Just as he came to this point, Koyama Noritaka suddenly realized something: Oda Nobuo already had the attention of the Ministry of Culture...

He lowered his head and walked dejectedly towards the tram stop.

There is a roadside bookstore with a red family crest flag with a papaya pattern hanging prominently at the door, which is also a sign that Oda Shingo's comics are for sale.

The TV screen in the store PV happened to show the preview of the animation of "Cells at Work!"

[“Cells at Work!” is now on sale, and the animation project has started! Scheduled to be released in April next year! ]

[Arakawa Theater's "Cells at Work!" stage play is about to start! Advance ticket reservations are now open! ]

[Chinese dubbing is finalized! Copyright sales negotiations are completed! 】

What? Oda Shingo's "Cells at Work!" has not only been adapted into an animation, but the copyright has even been exported to China?

Xiaoshan Zelong was a little dazed.

"Oh, are you here to buy Oda Sensei's comics too? They're all over here, on the most popular bookshelf." The owner just came out to hang up a new store sign.

A blue-haired trash goddess Aqua’s sign was placed in front of the bookstore.

[The book of "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World" is scheduled to be released! ] Noritaka Koyama looked at the best-selling bookshelf and found that Oda Shingo's comics occupied most of the shelves.

"You can take a rest and read comics in the store!" the owner reminded.

He thought Xiaoshan Zelong was a little tired.

In Japan, it is also very common for adults to read comics. Although no one in the workplace is willing to admit it, it is not uncommon.

"Oda Shingo's comics..." Noritaka Koyama stood at the door of the bookstore, watching the comic fans inside the store drinking Coke and flipping through comic books in groups of three or four.

Why are comic fans nowadays willing to sit in bookstores?

"'Peacock King' is great! This issue of 'RED' has 2 more chapters updated. Oda Shingo's apprentice is indeed very reliable."

"Yes, yes, it inherits the fine tradition of Mr. Oda. Authors who update quickly are popular."

Xiaoshan Zelong felt weak all over.

"Take a look at "GANTZ", it's absolutely awesome!" The shop owner thought that Noritaka Oyama was embarrassed to buy it, so he specially recommended him a single volume.

The first volume of "GANTZ".

"No! I won't buy that guy's comics!" Noritaka Oyama pushed the owner away angrily.

The GANTZ volume fell to the ground with a thud.

This happened to be seen by several comic fans.

"What? What does this guy mean?"

“Ulla ulala ulala! Someone dared to go crazy about Mr. Oda’s work! Don’t blame us for being rude!”

As it happened, there were two arrogant anime fans today, who immediately came over and pushed Koyama Noritaka.

Fortunately, Xiaoshan Zelong didn't talk back and just left quickly, otherwise he would have been punished.

He staggered onto the tram stop.

I entered the tram and just stood up holding the metal railing when a few students came over and they were still discussing Oda Shingo's comics.

"Why hasn't the second part of "JOJO" been released yet?" A student posed as a JOJO stand.

Another student made a cool fist-pumping gesture: "I'm looking forward to it too. I really want to see Star Platinum again."

Xiaoshan Zelong let go of the railing and just wanted to cover his ears.

At this moment, the tram shook violently and his head hit the metal railing with a bang.

He was already somewhat dazed, and finally fell down...

Soon the news came out.

[The former president of Qunyingsha, Noritaka Koyama, fainted on the train. According to people familiar with the matter, the students around him were demonstrating the Platinum Star move at the time.]

Although nothing was said explicitly, everyone who saw it understood that this guy was just stimulated.

The legend that the comic devil Shingo Oda would send his enemies to the hospital has been added to!
When Oda Shingo saw the news, he spread his hands to the girls around him, feeling quite wronged: "Don't blame me, really don't blame me, I have an alibi."

"Yes, we can all testify for you." Yuko Mikami said seriously, "At that time, you and Rumiko Kurokawa were doing a business involving hundreds of millions of dollars."

“…Why does it sound wrong to me?” Oda Shingo touched the back of his head.

"Don't worry about Koyama Noritaka who left with his tail between his legs." Fujido Kaoru reminded, "The Cultural Affairs Bureau is contacting you again."

She handed him an email, which turned out to be a report from the Ministry of Culture.

Soon, the assistant director called.

"Teacher Oda, sorry to bother you, the Cultural Affairs Bureau has a new commission request, please!"
