"Mr. Jia, in fact, you didn't intend to acquire Youngermen Jump at all, right?" Kazuki Takahashi said with a wry smile when he met Boss Jia again.
"Oh, why do you ask?" Boss Jia said with a smile.
"Because you asked me to negotiate with Youngermen Jump!" Kazuki Takahashi said with a wry smile, "If you really wanted to negotiate this deal, then you would've asked a professional to negotiate, not someone like me who still has a grudge with Youngermen Jump. You also wouldn't have set a price of 30 billion for me in advance. If it didn't work out, then you would've just said your lines and left. How is this the way you want a successful negotiation?"
Kazuki Takahashi also thought about this on the way back. He was too excited last night, so he didn't think about the meaning of these arrangements carefully.
When the negotiation failed, Kazuki Takahashi was able to calm down and think about it, then he realized that something was wrong.
How could there be such a negotiation in the world? Didn't Boss Jia want me to fail in the negotiation?
He didn't want to acquire Youngermen Jump at all, I just went there to make a joke.
Thinking of this, Kazuki Takahashi couldn't help but have some resentment in his heart.
"Teacher Takahashi, don't be angry, take a look at this report first!" Boss Jia smiled, then put a draft in front of Kazuki Takahashi.
Kazuki Takahashi picked up the draft, and found that the title was "When will the tyrant of the comic world stop!" The words were written.
When Kazuki Takahashi saw this title, he was instantly interested, then he began to read it carefully, and in the end, his whole body began to tremble.
Because this report was written by Youngermen Jump magazine, and this report was obviously written by a reporter who knew Youngermen Jump very well.
The reporter first introduced the history of Youngermen Jump, how Youngermen Jump had developed, and described Youngermen Jump as a warrior who had grown up by constantly fighting monsters and leveling up.
Judging from the first few paragraphs, this was undoubtedly an article praising Youngermen Jump.
However, in the middle of the article, with the sentence "The young dragon slayer turned into an evil dragon", the real purpose of the article was revealed.
Then, the article began to describe the dark side of Youngermen Jump. For example, the mangaka was forced to cough up three liters of blood because of the editor's urging.
Another example would be Youngermen Jump's absolute implementation of the ranking system. Manga that did not meet the requirements of the ranking would be directly cut in half, not giving the mangaka or the readers a chance to salvage the situation, nor would they give the manga a chance to finish.
On the other hand, a manga that was supposed to be finished would end normally because it was ranked at the top of the list.
The article described this as an evil system, because editors often used this system to attack and humiliate mangaka, such as Saint Seiya's mangaka, Masami Kaeda.
Another example would be Inoue Yuhiko, the mangaka of Slam Dunk. Slam Dunk was supposed to be finished after the national competition.
However, due to the popularity of Slam Dunk, Shōnen Jump kept pressuring Inoue Takahiko to continue writing. He even threatened Inoue Takahiko with the copyright and royalties, as well as a ban. In the end, Inoue Takahiko completely lost it. He fought Shōnen Jump to the end and chose to leave Shueisha's manga magazine.
Because of the agreement he signed, Inoue Yuhiko, who left Youngermen Jump, had to remain silent for a year. During this year, he was not allowed to publish any manga on any platform.
Then, the article mentioned Dragon Ball, saying that Dragon Ball should have finished long ago, but because of the editor's persuasion, it was forced to write more and more chapters.
In short, in this article, all the dark and disgusting aspects of Youngermen Jump were magnified and then displayed in front of the audience.
At the end of the article, Yu-Gi-Oh was mentioned. It mentioned that because the mangaka of Yu-Gi-Oh, Kazuki Takahashi, was also banned by Youngermen Jump.
In his anger, Kazuki Takahashi made a shocking move. He tried to raise 30 billion yen to buy Youngermen Jump, creating a fair and harmonious manga environment for all mangaka.
However, Kazuki Takahashi's great dream failed. Youngermen Jump Magazine did not hesitate to ridicule Kazuki Takahashi, saying that Kazuki Takahashi did not understand the real manga. Naturally, the acquisition failed.
During the negotiation, Kazuki Takahashi changed his mind. He decided not to buy Youngermen Jump, the source of darkness. He wanted to create a manga magazine platform that belonged to all mangaka, harmonious and happy, where everyone had the opportunity to draw their own works with peace of mind.
Therefore, at the end of the negotiation, Kazuki Takahashi shouted loudly that Youngermen Jump should not be bullied because he was poor. He would make sure that Youngermen Jump would never produce a new manga in the future, because all excellent mangaka would choose a platform that could truly bring them happiness.
This new manga magazine was called Weekly Dengeki Shōnen.
"Mr. Jia!" After reading this article, Kazuki Takahashi could not help but swallow his saliva, and then said, "Mr. Jia, what do you mean by this?"
"Nothing. From tomorrow onwards, reports similar to this article will appear in almost all the media in Fusang at the same time … Of course, Shueisha's media will definitely not appear!"
"Then I will give you 30 billion … Well … I will give you 30 billion first … Then I will withdraw 28 billion. How can a new platform cost so much money? Two billion yen is enough for you to use as you wish! "
"You will create a brand new platform that belongs to all mangaka!" Boss Jia said with a smile, "Don't worry, as long as there is money, the entire magazine will be built quickly, and you will become the editor-in-chief and president of this new magazine. In the future, the person who will end Youngermen Jump's hegemony will be you!"
"But … I don't know anything about management … I …" Kazuki Takahashi was completely confused.
"Don't worry, it's okay if you don't know anything. I will send professionals to help you. You just need to stand on the stage and wave the flag for me!" Boss Jia laughed happily.

The next day, the editors of the Youngermen Jump magazine, who were just preparing for work, were shocked by the articles in the newspapers.
Almost all the media began to publish these articles that exposed the dark side of Youngermen Jump.
In particular, the sentence "The dragon slayer turned into an evil dragon in the end" became the golden sentence of the year, and swept all of Fusang.
Youngermen Jump dominated the world of Fusang's manga industry, and no one could beat it. However, in this way, there were many people who had been dissatisfied with Youngermen Jump for a long time.
Although they did not understand how so many scandals about Youngermen Jump appeared in an instant, they became very excited. They immediately joined in and spontaneously dug out a lot of dark material.
All the media and newspapers accepted it and published these dark materials one by one.
In a short time, Youngermen Jump was completely covered in dark material.
What made Youngermen Jump want to vomit blood was that these dark materials were basically true. Youngermen Jump did not have any room to refute, and they did not even dare to write a previous article, because they could not refute the facts.
If it was just the media, Youngermen Jump would not be afraid. After all, Youngermen Jump had been defamed many times.
However, the key was that this time, the opponent was not targeting Youngermen Jump, but the manga artists under Youngermen Jump. These reports began to describe how miserable the manga artists under Youngermen Jump were.
This caused the manga artists under Youngermen Jump to waver. After all, these things were true, and the manga artists had long had enough of Youngermen Jump's tyrannical style.
Therefore, a large number of manga artists began to become unstable. Then, Weekly Dengeki Shōnen manga magazine suddenly appeared in various media with the attitude and image of a dragon slayer. At the same time, it began to collect manga manuscripts and rewards. At the same time, it announced that any manga that could be serialized in Weekly Dengeki Shōnen would not be forced to be cut in half, nor would it be forced to be extended. Everything would be done according to the manga artist's wishes.
This was destroying the foundation of Youngermen Jump! Without the manga artists' support and yearning, Youngermen Jump was nothing!
