Shen Xin also knows that if we let the magazine know that "Soul of Goss" will end at the end of the year, it will definitely make waves.

Many people think that celebrity writers or cartoonists should have the right to decide on their works, but this is not the case.

In the face of capital, creators can't even determine the length of their own works.

Such things are not uncommon.

The most talked about by everyone is the story of Toriyama Akira and "Dragon Ball".

It is said that many people think that "Dragon Ball" ends after Namek, which is the most perfect. But the reality is that "Dragon Ball" was dragged to Majin Buu by the magazine.

Of course, there are exceptions. The most famous is "Slam Dunk". At that time, Inoue was determined to finish, and finally got his wish, but the price was to leave "JUMP" and switch to another company's magazine, "Weekly Morning".

Not everyone has the courage and determination of Inoue Takehiko. A cartoonist like Toriyama Akira must also consider the interests of magazines and other companies.

In fact, not only the hot works will be subject to this restriction. In the "Dream Eater", the manga "Run!" by Gao He Qiuren. "Dafa Dandou" was only ranked about 10th in "JUMP", but when they offered to end this comic, the magazine also disagreed with it. In the end, the highest sincerity was "If you can’t draw more than Eiji The comics, just leave "jump" as a bet, and then the editor-in-chief nodded and agreed to end the comics.

It is very difficult for a pillar like "The Soul of the Game" to end. Therefore, before the serialization, Shen Xin and Shang Haozhi agreed to have the right to end the comics.

During the three years of "Soul of the Game" serialization, Shen Xin made some small actions. For example, the reason why he bet with Bao Jiyi was on the one hand for the production of the follow-up comics of "Soul of the Game". On the other hand, he wanted to gain more rights .

The contract is really too restrictive for cartoonists and authors.

Of course, magazines or platforms have also paid a lot of resources for their works, such as the promotion of comics and the production of animations, but at the same time, they are also destroying cartoonists.

If a manga catches fire, the magazine will not let it end easily; and if a manga does not perform well, it will be cut in half.

In order to prevent cartoonists from hopping to other magazines, cartoonists are not allowed to contribute to other magazines during the contract period.

What happens to the life of a cartoonist if the comics are cut down during the contract period, and the serialization has never been passed?

Sorry, that is not something that the magazine has to consider.

Therefore, in "Dream Eater", Shinhiro Majo said that cartoonists are gamblers, and only one in 100,000 people in District 11 can live on cartoons for a lifetime.

In this comic, the author also cited an example, that is, the author of "DeathNote", if for some reason cannot work, he will be starved to death after five years.

"DeathNote" and "Dream Eater" are exactly the same, both Oba Thrush and Ohata Ken, so the credibility of these words is still there.

One step to heaven, one step to hell, this is the cartoonist.

Of course, some people say that since they are facing starvation, wouldn't the cartoonist choose to leave? Like Inoue Takehiko, he's doing well.

It's okay to have the strength of Inoue Takehiko, but 99.99% of manga artists do not have that level. What's more, even a well-known manga artist is not sure that the next one will be as popular as Inoue Takehiko.

When "Rurouni Kenshin" was serialized, it was the signature comic of "JUMP" and one of "JUMP". After it was over, the cartoonist and Tsuki Nobuhiro did not have a great work.

In addition, once the cartoonist leaves "JUMP", it is difficult to re-serialize in "JUMP".

It's cruel to say, but this is the situation of cartoonists in this industry. Every reader can see the superficial scenery of cartoonists, but in most cases, the lives of cartoonists are not satisfactory.

Compared with the earth, the only advantage of this world is that there are more options, but even so, industry giants like the three major magazines or "Young Leap" still control the right to speak and want to live in these magazines. Being comfortable is not an easy task.

After all, not everyone has the strength of an old thief.

Even if Shen Xin wants to negotiate with capital, he can't be too reckless.

Fortunately, due to the huge sales of "Hire", he also had a bottom in his heart.

Even if no magazine is willing to accept his work-of course, this situation does not exist-he will not be unable to eat, and he does not need to worry about whether the comics make money.

Negotiating terms with the magazine and fighting for his own rights is also the reason why Shen Xin did not want to sign a contract with ComicFuture too early.

After Wang Wenhong conveyed Shen Xin's meaning to Shang Haozhi, the next afternoon, he took Shen Xin to the editorial department of "ComicFuture".

When other editors saw Shen Xin and Shang Haozhi enter the conference room in the cubicle together, they immediately started discussing them.

"Xiao Wang, what did Teacher Shen say?" Hook asked.

Wang Wenhong spread his hands out, "Do you all the cartoonists talk to you about the contract?"

The others shook their heads.

They represent magazines, not cartoonists. Besides, few people are qualified to negotiate terms with the magazine.

"That's it." Wang Wenhong also shrugged, "Me too."

"I hope he doesn't think about stupid things." Hook was a little worried.

"Probably not. After Mr. Shen and "NewWorld" broke up, he rarely got angry. Moreover, Mr. Shang is also a sane person, and there should be no conflict between the two ~lightnovelpub.net~Wang Wenhong said.

The others thought for a moment and nodded. Neither of them is too impulsive, so they should be able to stay sensible.

In the meeting room, Shang Haozhi poured two cups of hot water, put one of them in front of Shen Xin, and then sat opposite Shen Xin.

"Let’s talk about the contract first. What conditions do you have? Copyright, or what?"

Shen Xin shook his head, holding the tea cup in both hands, and took a sip.

"There are no conditions. Copyrights are valuable if they can be sold, but if they can't be sold, it won't be of much use to me. There is nothing unacceptable in the hands of a magazine."

This sentence can be regarded as Shen Xin's heart.

If you want to operate copyright, you must have a network of people, otherwise, even if the copyright is in hand, it will not sell for a good price. What's more, some high-level production companies can't be hired by spending money.

Domestic companies are fine to talk, but foreign production companies, such as orochi, rely on Shen Xin alone, and it is difficult to get involved with them.

"ComicFuture" is the largest animation magazine in China, and Shen Xin can be operated by the magazine temporarily, but it will suffer a little loss.

However, what he signed with "ComicFuture" was not a lifetime copyright contract. After ten years, the copyright returned to him.

Now that he is just creating comics, Shen Xin is already very busy and has no energy to care about copyright operations.

In the future, if he has an agent, maybe he can leave these things to them, but recently, he hasn't made such plans.

"Then why don't you sign a contract with the magazine?" Shang Haozhi asked.

Shen Xin waved his hand, "President Shang, you are wrong. I didn't not sign, but temporarily."
