The entire Japanese editorial circle is very small, and the circle about several giant publishing houses is even smaller than that.

Everyone has a relationship that looks up and sees each other, and has cooperation and competition, so it is difficult to hide some things even if you want to hide them.

It's like the resignation of the editor-in-chief Seo this time.

At first it was just gossip, but to the end it was basically all the editors of the giant publishing house knew about it.

He is indeed leaving the job.

After all, during the time of the editor-in-chief of Seo, the weekly comic magazine "Chione" never beat the weekly magazine "Kaise" of Toshima Publishing House.

The upper-level directors and officers of Yanzhu Publishing House attach great importance to this, and are also particularly dissatisfied with it—

Even if the other party has a killer weapon like "Hanzawa Naoki", you can't just show such unwanted results.

You should know that except Higashinoji, the comic authors in our comic magazines, basically beat the other party.

There is only one Higashinoji on the opposite side, so you can't beat it?

Why?

Is Higashinoji a god?

In addition, when Horikoshi Hanhei was in charge of the editor-in-chief Seo, he caused a "malicious creation of cruel cement murder case"... This made many upper-level directors judge that the editor-in-chief Seo is not able to manage the entire editorial department of Chiyo.

After all, the editor-in-chief Seo has a relatively awkward position in Iwatsuki Publishing House, and is a position of middle-in-chief that is neither high nor low.

Whenever there is any problem with comic magazines, the first person to look for a person in charge like him.

Therefore, his resignation has basically become a foregone conclusion.

As for why he resigned after the New Year holiday... This is Higashinoji's guess. He is not a god, so it is impossible to know the personnel changes of Iwatsuki Publishing House.

And I resigned during the New Year Festival, which felt a bit like killing a donkey. After all, even a stable New Year Festival is not something that makes people celebrate... It is indeed a bit unreasonable.

Yanzhu Publishing House shouldn't be so anxious.

But to be on the safe side, Higashinoji still asked Ryuichi Yano to pay special attention to the movements of Editor-in-Chief Seo so that no one else could take the lead.

......

"Editor-in-chief Seo, sorry, I'll ask you out during the New Year holidays..."

"No, it's okay, Ishimaru Job." Seo Daigo looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, but couldn't help sighing in his heart.

It seems that the board of directors and service members have already made up their minds to take themselves off.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have called myself during the New Year and asked me to come to Yanzhu Publishing House for a special trip - you should know that he was purchasing with his daughter just now... Now I have to let my daughter wait outside the editorial department.

The middle-aged man in front of him was Masao Ishimaru, who was the director who recommended Seo Daigo to become the editor-in-chief.

The appearance of the good man he recommended himself had changed, and now he looked a bit serious.

The other party will call him over, but it is actually just one thing...

"Editor-in-chief Seo, you should understand that you have to notify me of any matters when you call you here this time?" Ishimaru Masao said.

"You can probably guess." Seo Daigo raised his head and his expression was calm: "Is the Ishimaru Servant wants to talk about his resignation?"

Seo Dago doesn't make noise or make noise because he has passed the previous passionate era. In addition, it is basically a foregone conclusion that he has made a noise even if he makes trouble, so he still maintains a calm mind at this time.

"Editor-in-chief Seo, I know you are an excellent talent, and I also want to keep you in the position of editor-in-chief of Iwatsuki Publishing House... But the achievements you have achieved in your job are not satisfactory. This is your mistake, do you admit it?"

Is this my mistake?

As Seo Daigo heard this, his eyebrows raised and his mouth opened, trying to say something, but he quickly closed it slowly.

He thought of asking his trusted colleagues to help investigate the matter of editor-in-chief Horikoshi Hanhei.

Yes, Seo Daigo is very strange.

Why did Horikoshi Hanhei use a whole chapter to describe the "cement murder case", but Horikoshi Hanhei's editor-in-chief was indifferent and submitted the original manuscript directly.

You know that it was a whole story, a total of twenty-three pages. No matter how blind the editor of Horikoshi Banhei was, he would not be so blind.

There are many doubts about this matter and we must investigate it carefully.

After investigation, Seo Daigo discovered that the editor-in-chief of Horikoshi Hanhei was an editor from the Miyaokao Publishing House. The reason why he submitted the manuscript in question was actually because someone in the board meeting signaled him to do this.

After grasping this line, it is easy to peel off the thread and grasp the source.

It turns out that from the beginning, there were people in the board meeting who were very dissatisfied with his repeated failures in the battle between Chiyo and Kazuo...

In addition, as a standard neutral, he was not from Iwakao Publishing House or from Mozhu Publishing House... and many directors wanted to arrange their editors as editor-in-chief.

Therefore, the original manuscript of Horikoshi Hakuhira was directly concealed by the truth and was published in the anecdotal "Chione".

When she learned about this, Seo Daigo was of course very angry.

He did not defeat Toshima Publishing House head-on, which was his dereliction of duty. He could admit it or obey the arrangements for resigning.

But you insisted that I leave the job at the blame... This is a bit disgusting!

Seo Daigo was very angry at first, but later he felt like he was unable to do anything.

This is clearly forcing him to step down. If he made such a big mistake, no one would say anything even if he was fired.

So what's the use of him resisting personally?

Seo Daigo thought so and lowered his head helplessly.

Seeing that he had no intention of expressing his opinion, Masao Ishimaru was a little stunned, and then knocked on the table: "Editor General Seo, do you admit that everything is your fault?"

As a director and servant, he personally asked the other party, but the other party didn't say a word... What are you doing? Getting angry?

Seo Daigo raised his head again, glanced at Ishimaru at the moment, and finally sighed deeply.

Yes...what are you sticking to? It's not that everyone is "Hanzawa Naoki" in the comics of Mr. Higashino. How could someone really resist his boss? What's the use of being wronged and angry?

Office workers have a gentle Shiba Inu personality. Even if someone kicks it, they will run away with their tails stomped.

He thought so, and just looked up and was about to speak: "I'm sorry..."

Seo Dago, who had already raised his head, stopped his words and even stood a little stunned.

It turned out that everything had changed between lowering your head and raising your head.

At the same time, it was the young man's voice and harsh voice: "If you want to blame me for all the responsibilities, I will forgive you for not accepting it. I once submitted the financing report to Asano Branch President, and he also said that if there is a problem, he will be fully responsible."

Seo Daigo was stunned.

This is clearly a scene in Higashinoji's "Hanzawa Naoki". He is aggressive in the face of the head office investigation. They want to push all the mistakes to Hanzawa Naoki.

After experiencing countless psychological struggles, Hanzawa Naoki could no longer bear it and refused to take all the responsibilities.

Looking at Hanzawa Naoki, who still didn't give up on arguments, Seo Dago always felt that somewhere in his heart was moved.

He finally understood why "Hanzawa Naoki" is regarded as an excellent national work by so many office workers... The reason is... It truly describes the grievance and helplessness in the hearts of office workers when they are bullied, scolded, and unreasonably put on the blame.

This completely resonates with his current emotions...

After hearing the declaration of Hanzawa Naoki's words: "I will definitely recover those 500 million!", Seo Dago breathed out again.

On the website, Seo Daigo often sees some office workers posting posts that "resigned after reading "Hanzawa Naoki".

At that time, he thought it was just a simple rumor. After all, he had entered the work stage and was no longer a child. He felt a little aggrieved at work and endured it and passed...

But now it seems that Seo Daigo doesn't feel like a rumor.

because...

"I admit that I may have part of the responsibility, but the editor in charge of Horikoshi Hanhei should also have a considerable part of the responsibility, right?"

Seo Dago has made a fortune.

Anyway, he is going to leave the job at all times, at least he has to say everything he says before leaving.

This may be the mentality of giving up and not afraid of wearing shoes with barefoot.

At this moment, Seo Daigo felt that even if he was really like "Hanzawa Naoki", there was no problem to criticize his superiors head-on.

Thinking of this, he seemed confident and calm, and his fearful appearance just now completely disappeared.

"The editor in charge of Higashita did not correctly examine the original manuscript of Horikoshi Hakuhira, which led to the increase in the bad comments of Chiyo. Since the board of directors and officers have made a decision to let me leave, then of course, it should be that the editor in charge of Higashita should also leave, right? What can even be used by the editor who is responsible for the content of the comic author's work?"

Seo Daigo's words made Masao Ishimaru stunned.

He called Seo Daigo to come over and wanted him to be scolded, not to hear his rebellious words.

Moreover, the little thing that the editor in charge of Higashita did was instructed by members of their board of directors... Why was it Seo Daigo the turn to point fingers here?

Ishimaru Masao's expression quickly became cold and said, "Are you questioning the decision of the Board of Directors? Editor-in-chief Seo? We will naturally make arrangements for the handling of the editor-in-chief of Higashita."

"There will be arrangements naturally? I want to know what punishment can be? No... I probably can't hear any punishment, because I also heard from the Human Resources Department that the Japanese editor-in-chief not only did not punish, but would have to be upgraded to the editorial team leader. Is this also the decision of the board of directors?"

Anyway, I'm going to leave my job, so I'll make it clear!

At least you can't let yourself leave so unclearly! You're still taking the inexplicable blame!

Seo Daigo has decided to fight completely today! The lower one is defeated by the upper one and the lower one is defeated by the upper one! So what?

He argued with Masao Ishimaru... It was no, and it was already a quarrel later.
To be continued...
