Chapter 63 Fair Competition
The editorial department basically has no secrets. Although Song Qiao and Wen Wen didn't publicly quarrel this time, the authors under their hands are indeed competitors.

Moreover, He Manni, the author of the Wenwen belt, was the first to stand up, so she must be considered a young bird, so it attracted everyone's attention.

However, Editor-in-Chief Zhu's words are interesting. Some things are fine to say off the stage, but now they're going straight to the point... What is he trying to do?

Everyone could faintly smell a storm coming.

Sure enough, everyone's intuition was very accurate, Zhu Yuanyuan suddenly smiled and continued.

"Everyone is smart, and I won't fool you for fools. There is a reason why I worked so hard to sign Ding Lingling to our website. I let "Teacher Gao Lengshuai Observation Diary" skip the online serialization and publish it directly. In the physical magazine, I also have my own considerations, because I think Ding Lingling has this strength and ability."

As expected, the editors were a little bit unconvinced.

Zhu Yuanyuan didn't care, but said suddenly: "However, I think my thoughts may be different from yours. There is a saying that the joys and sorrows of human beings are not interlinked. I'm afraid you don't agree with what I think. Since In this case, let’s just have some direct and fair competition.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were on Zhu Yuanyuan's face, including Song Qiao.

Although Zhu Yuanyuan was watched by everyone, she didn't flinch in the slightest. Instead, she raised her chin and said solemnly.

"In order to quell this undercurrent and give everyone an explanation, I decided to use the pre-sale to determine the cover. To be precise, it is the magazine's pre-sale competition. The rules of the competition are very simple. readers can vote online."

"If you buy one magazine, you can cast one vote. Similarly, if you buy ten magazines, you can cast ten votes. The time limit is three days. The number of votes will be counted at the end of the pre-sale. Readers cannot cancel the pre-sale. The final pre-sale results will be used. To decide the winner of the cover this time, which comic author has the best pre-sale results, then she will be on the cover of the next comic magazine."

After Zhu Yuanyuan finished speaking, the editors in the office looked at each other and were stunned. Obviously, they did not expect such an opportunity.

Someone caught a blind spot, though.

One of the editors couldn't help asking: "Editor Zhu, this competition...is the comic writers from the entire editorial department participating?"

Everyone is also very curious, after all, if the top comic book authors also participate, how can they bring these newcomers?Not even a mouthful of soup!
Zhu Yuanyuan seemed to have anticipated this question a long time ago. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, this competition is limited to our female-oriented manga newcomers. I have already persuaded Mr. Yang, and he agreed."

"The pre-sale results only count our newcomers, and the champion will only be born from the newcomers. There are no men to join the author, and no women to compete with you from the top authors. Only you newcomers can compete fairly."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was excited.

If there are really only newcomers competing with each other, then it's fair. Although there is still only one cover, without the competition from the big guys, they still have a chance.

As for Song Qiao, who was standing on the far side, she felt a little nervous when she saw the other editors so excited.

Presale contest?

She really didn't expect that the last solution Zhu Yuanyuan came up with was this. Is this... is the other party's so-called strategy?
After the meeting was over, the door of the office was opened.

The editors filed out excitedly, and each left to find the newcomer author they brought along to announce the good news.

Not far away, Cui Yang held a cup of coffee in his hand, looked at the joyful editors, raised his eyebrows, and a meaningful smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

"The pre-sale contest, it's just a small snack, are you so happy?"

"Editor Cui, don't you just like this little snack?"

Suddenly a deep voice came from beside his ear, Cui Yang turned his head fiercely, and when he saw the person coming, he immediately restrained himself from being a fool, and greeted him with a more respectful attitude with a smile.

"Mr. Yang, why are you here?"

Mr. Yang is dressed in a suit and leather shoes. Although he looks ordinary, he is very aura and has a shrewd face.

He directly put a hand on Cui Yang's shoulder, smiled and said, "Aren't I afraid that you will lose your mental balance? For this competition, Zhu Yuanyuan has begged me for a long time, insisting that I give them female-oriented cartoons." A chance for a rookie."

"I thought about it carefully. Only competition can produce high yields, so I agreed. This time, not only are you male-oriented authors not allowed to participate, but also their female-oriented seniors are not allowed to participate. It's just a little sweetness. Don't take it to heart."

"Don't worry, I won't forget you. After all, you are the main force of our website. Give them this small opportunity. I still have a few contracts with game developers here, all of which are your IP. Can you call the author later to sign the contract?"

Cui Yang smiled with a generous face.

"Mr. Yang, then you underestimate me. We men have never been short of these things. I'm really embarrassed to compete with others for such a small snack..."

Speaking of this, Cui Yang's eyes flickered, he touched the cup calmly, and when he raised his hand to drink coffee, he seemed to ask a question casually.

"By the way, Mr. Yang, I heard...you recently met with the boss of Fendai Literature. Do you have any new plans for women to go to comics?"

"Although I don't mind giving them this piece of snack, Fendai literature is not a piece of snack. If you have any new ideas about women's comics, you can't forget my side."

Mr. Yang did not expect that Cui Yang would suddenly mention Fendai literature, he had already done it very secretly... subconsciously, he put his hand off Cui Yang's shoulder, and said with a twitch of his mouth uncomfortably.

"You kid, you don't stare at me all day, do you? You even know that I went to meet the boss of Fendai Literature?"

Cui Yang just smiled, but did not answer the question. His eyes were still fixed on Mr. Yang's face, obviously asking for an answer.

Mr. Yang looked away uncomfortably, raised his hand, and scratched his nose with his index finger. Guilt flashed in his eyes, then he cleared his throat, put his hands behind his back, looked at Cui Yang and smiled.

"Cui Yang, don't worry, even if I have any thoughts on female-oriented cartoons, I will never shake the interests of male-oriented comics. After all, you are the backbone of the company."

"Besides, I just had a meal with the bosses of Fendai Literature. They are the big bosses who really eat the big cake of IP. I, who is engaged in comic IP development, just go to learn from them. Don't think too much .”
