Chapter 949: Natsume Friends Account
But Alice was not kidding, she really planned to let Chen Jie deal with the voice actor's affairs.︽,
However, strictly speaking, she did not want to hand over all the power of the firm to Chen Jie, but added another Chen Jie to the existing managers of the firm. The daily management remained unchanged, but she looked like a newcomer.
Meng Huo was quite suspicious about whether Chen Jie could play this role after less than half a year of employment. However, after Alice was confidently guaranteed, he still promised to let Chen Jie try it out. As long as the two of them nodded, Xu Jing would naturally not interfere.
The next day, Alice called Chen Jie in front of her and told her about the matter.
"Can I hold such an important position?" Chen Jie was also scared. When she suddenly heard the news, she intuitively believed that she would not be able to do the job well: "This is too sudden, I think it's better to be cautious..."
"It doesn't matter." However, her disconfidence was interrupted by Alice: "This position seems important, but I also consider that it is suitable for you. If it is another position of the same level, I will definitely not hand it over to you. Do you understand what I mean?"
Chen Jie shook her head in confusion.
"Because you are familiar with the people in the firm." Alice had no choice but to add that she was naturally not completely impulsive to make this choice. The key is that she felt that Chen Jie had a very big advantage in working in the firm, that is, she was familiar with all the senior executives.
As the most top voice actor in the firm, Chen Jie often has contacts with the senior executives of the firm, and everyone is familiar with it. In fact, it is not only her, but Xia Chuan Zhen. The senior executives of the firm attach great importance to important voice actors. No one doesn’t know them.
Alice had observed it a long time ago. She knew that Chen Jie had a good relationship with several current supervisors. Chen Jie's communication skills cannot be said to be very broad, and she has few connections in other departments. However, in the office, there are almost no senior executives whom she doesn't know, and Chen Jie's personality is also very recognized.
"I understand..." Chen Jie nodded. She knew that she had great advantages in going to the office to work, but she still frowned: "But... I still feel that I can't do such an important job."
"You don't need to do any complicated work." Alice smiled: "You don't want to steal their jobs after you go, but they are still responsible for the affairs of the firm. You don't need to worry about it for the time being. You just need to prevent the outside world from poaching the voice actors."
“This is an experience.”
Alice also said that this was a key assessment for Chen Jie. Alice hopes that Chen Jie can grasp and take the opportunity to prove herself. If Chen Jie wants to become an important helper of Meng Huo in the future, it is impossible for him to keep doing trivial things, and he must accept such difficult experience.
Moreover, this position will not be 100% handed over to Chen Jie. Alice wants to observe her performance this time. If she performs poorly, she will intervene in to help. After this, Chen Jie's position will also be revoked. Start with small things again.
But if Chen Jie proves herself, Alice can cultivate her even more with confidence. She can stand firm in the firm, start learning to handle the real affairs of the firm, and slowly cultivate herself into a powerful department head.
"...Okay..." After hearing Alice's explanation, Chen Jie nodded. This was a pie and opportunity falling from the sky. It would be too stupid to refuse.
Alice breathed a sigh of relief: "I will notify you later, and you can go there to report in the afternoon." She paused and said, "This time, you can act tougher... I think you can be willful and don't care too much about other people's opinions."
"..." Chen Jie looked at Alice in surprise: "Are you sure?"
"Of course." Alice nodded: "This situation requires tough measures, whether internally or externally, we need your willfulness now."
Chen Jie was stunned for a moment, then gently raised the corner of her mouth: "This is what you said, then I'm not polite!"
She said goodbye to Alice, then turned around and left in a happy mood. With Alice's promise, Chen Jie became more confident.
Looking at her leaving behind, Alice also smiled. She was looking forward to seeing Chen Jie's response. She wanted to see Chen Jie appear in front of the outside world in a different 'position' from herself and Meng Huo.
Phoenix Company has always been very "hiding its strength and maintaining a low profile". Although both Alice and Meng Huo are not at a disadvantage, they are not too tough on the outside world and their decisions are conservative. Not to mention Xu Jing, he is a complete defensive strategy.
But perhaps it is because of this that Phoenix Company seems passive at special moments, and it is impossible to avoid such a thing this time. Alice found that the company needs a tougher representative, especially after Phoenix grows up, they have enough confidence, so such people need it even more.
She pinned her hopes on Shen Jie. Chen Jie's personality is independent and is also welcomed by fans. Therefore, her toughness will not cause great conflicts, nor will it interfere with the actions of Alice and Meng Huo. Even after this black face, Alice and Meng Huo will have more bargaining rights to the outside world.
Although she is a little selfish, Alice does have the idea of using Chen Jie. I believe Chen Jie will soon notice this, but she will definitely not care. Compared to Alice's mild-mannered method of causing trouble, the obviously tough method will be more suitable for Chen Jie's taste.
“We can get each one of us…”
Alice thought so, but she still had to see if Chen Jie represented the company's strength.
At the same time she was dealing with this matter, Su Hua's Meng Huo had already thrown the voice actor aside. He noticed the problem and told Alice that the rest of the matter was not something he needed to worry about.
Meng Huo’s main job is creation.
In the morning, he came to the editorial department of "Weekly Girls" with a thick file bag. The female editors came up in surprise, but Meng Huo looked around and did not see the editor-in-chief: "Where are your editor-in-chief? I want to see her."
"The editor-in-chief is reviewing the manuscript in the office." A female editor smiled and said, "Today, there are a lot of adaptations of "Detective Conan", and everyone is helping."
Meng Huo opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Do you also want to help review the manuscript?"
"you do not say!"
"I'm so enthusiastic about submission, teacher. It's only a day after this!"
The female editors complained. The enthusiasm for novel adaptation was too high. Thousands of submissions were included in just one day. Now several editorial departments have to help review it. In fact, Phoenix Company attaches great importance to this novel adaptation, and selected writers must be unanimously recognized by the male and female editorial departments.
"After all, this is a big way to expand your original comics and animations, and no one dares to relax."
"The influence of novels is amazing. An excellent team can make your works more successful in the novel market, and can also add many new readers to our department's magazines."
While chatting with Meng Huo, the editors surrounded her to the door of the editor-in-chief's office. The editor had already gone in advance to inform him. Therefore, when Meng Huo arrived, the female editor-in-chief happened to come out in a hurry.
"Teacher He Xi, I'm really sorry..."
While apologizing, she took Meng Huo into her office and drove the other female editors away.
Meng Huo was a little stunned when he first met the editor-in-chief because his face was a little unfamiliar. But he soon remembered that this was the new editor-in-chief of "Weekly Girls". The original editor-in-chief returned to Ninghai a while ago and served as the manager of the two girls' comics departments.
During the Phoenix Company's transformation this year, the personnel changes in the comics department were quite big. However, although it was very strange, Meng Huo had a good memory, and he remembered the name of the new editor-in-chief.
"Miss Wang, didn't disturb you, right?" Meng Huo sat down and greeted her.
Wang Hui smiled: "How could that be? But if Teacher He Xi, you could tell me in advance. Look at me, I'm not ready now... Please, this is water, I have no other drinks here."
She poured Meng Huo a glass of water: "What's wrong with coming here this time?"
"Yes." Meng Huo picked up the file bag and put it on the table: "I have a comic that I want to read."
"Comics!?" Wang Hui was about to sit down, but after her butt touched the stool, she jumped up again: "New Comics!?"
"Yes, new comics."
Meng Huo smiled. Although he had not released a new comic for a long time, he did not expect Wang Hui's reaction to be so great.
Wang Hui couldn't wait to pick up the file bag, but opened it very carefully. He took out several stacks of originals inside. Each original was wrapped separately, with the manga name and number of words written on the paper cover.
"Natsume...Friends' account..." Wang Hui frowned slightly. The name of the comic was very strange. She asked: "Friends mean friends, right?"
"Yes, and Natsume is the protagonist's name."
"Natsume Friends' Account", Meng Huo painted the holiday after the carnival for two days, and it has been a month now. But to be precise, he may have been preparing this comic for a longer time, and it has been several years.
This is a comic about the stories of monsters and people, which is very healing, and Meng Huo has always considered bringing it. However, because the types of monsters in the original work are too narrow and should be said to be too limited to the extreme east, he has never drawn it.
In recent years, Meng Huo has read many Chinese monster legends and read some monster illustrations. Finally, he felt that it was almost done, so he decided to write it out. Compared with the original work, the comics he drew more types, and they are also monsters that many Chinese people are familiar with.
The story of the comic is also arranged in mainland China, and the comic has a larger perspective.
Wang Hui took out the first chapter and read it, but after reading two pages, she was stunned: "Teacher, have you taken the wrong editorial department? Isn't this a boy's comic?"
Natsume's male protagonist in "Natsume Friends' Account" is a beautiful boy, not a girl at all. Shouldn't this be a teenager comic?
Meng Huo drank tea and smiled, "It's not wrong, I feel it is more suitable for girls' comics... You can finish reading it first. If you think it's better to put it on the boy's comics, I'll bring it to "Weekly Boys"."
Wang Hui frowned, then slowly read it patiently. The original manuscript was very thick and seemed to be well prepared. It was as many as seven episodes. She became addicted to it and was attracted by the extremely fresh comic content.
Natsume, the male protagonist of "Natsume Friends' Account", was born with powerful spiritual power and could see monsters. Because his parents died, he was always among relatives who shirked responsibility for each other and was bullied by his peers. At the same time, he was influenced by his abilities. He never had a deep relationship with anyone until the beginning of the story, resulting in a withdrawn personality.
But Natsume is a kind boy, and he has never complained about his own misfortune. After being adopted by a new couple, Natsume broke the seal of a monster by being chased by a monster, and then involved his grandmother's "friend account".
This is a contract book that records the names of many monsters. Natsume decided to return the names of the monsters in his friend's account to the monsters. "Marama", who became interested in the friend's account, made an agreement with Natsume to protect his life to replace the ownership of the friend's account.
Accompanied by "Madara", Natsume began to experience stories related to monsters, or strange, sad, and sentimental...
Meng Huo watched Wang Hui’s eyes turn red as she read the comic. When she put down the last chapter of the comic, he asked: “How is it? Do you still think it is suitable for boy comics?”
Wang Hui wiped her eyes. Although there were only seven episodes, she was moved by the content of the comic: "No, I think you are right in teacher. It is suitable for girls' comics."
Although logically speaking, the gender of the protagonist in "Natsume Friends' Account" should be placed in the boy's comics, the comic classification is not that simple.
In addition to gender, the style and content of the comics are also very important. Young manga tends to tell stories about dreams, struggles and struggles. Girl manga is mainly female readers, and most of them tell stories about romantic and emotionality.
"Natsume Friends' Account" is not a comic that tells the feelings of men and women, but the touching and romance in the comics are no less than love comics. Natsume's sad past, kind heart, handsome appearance, and touching stories after touching are all things that will touch female readers' hearts.
This comic is indeed a girl comic, a unique girl comic. Of course, it can also be placed on "Weekly Boy", but Wang Hui feels that its performance in "Weekly Boy" will definitely not exceed its performance in "Weekly Boy".
"Leave it to us, Teacher He Xi!" Wang Hui was a little excited. He Xi finally released a new comic book again, and it was a girl comic. How could she not be excited!
She wants to take down "Natsume Friends Account", otherwise the editorial department of "Weekly Boy" will know, and it is very likely that they will snatch the boy's editorial department from the boy's editorial department's voice in Phoenix Company, which is much greater than that of the girl's editorial department.
