Chapter 742 - Future of Media Factory 2 (1/2)

There are various kinds of mangas such as Shounen, Shoujo, Seinen, Josei, Yaoi, and Yuri.

Each of them is aimed at different target audiences such as Shounen for boys between the ages of 12 and 18 and Shoujo for young teen females.

If the most profitable manga would be Shounen Manga, then the second profitable one would be Shoujo manga.

Why is it popular?

Because it can be read by everyone different from Seinen or Seinen which can only be read by males and females in their 20's and more.

Haru had promised that he would make a Shoujo manga magazine for Erina and of course, he was going to do it since he had promised and it was also profitable.

”Isn't it a bit too hasty?”

Even though the result of the ”Viking Shounen Weekly Manga” was good, it didn't mean that it was stabilized. They needed to wait at least a few months to see the response of the readers.

Their magazine's result was good on the first day sales, but part of it was also because of the promotion.

They wanted it to make it better and if possible they wanted to make a record for weekly sales.

”I don't mean now, but at least, I want to prepare since if the result of our weekly shonen manga is good then why not do a week shoujo manga too?” Haru said.

They nodded and understood Haru's ambition. Even though they wouldn't do it shortly, they would do it later.

The meeting was over, and they decided to start the party soon after the success of their weekly manga magazine on the Tootsuki Hotel.

Haru had often come here since the food was suitable for him and everyone also loved it.

Everyone was very excited inside the ballroom of the hotel drinking and eating while talking about the future of Media Factory.

Different from a normal manga publishing company where there was one author for each manga, Haru's company was different since he had his own team to both manage both story and ill.u.s.tration. In some sense, his company was similar to Marvel and DC in the US.

Haru was only a conductor giving them a direction where they should walk, and after that, he could let the team which managed each manga handle it.

If total sales of the manga were good then the publishing company would do their best to keep that work serialized for a long time while also giving the author a team which able to help him to continue his manga such as Detective Conan which had been always in first grade in elementary school for more than 20 years.

The author wanted it over, but the publishing company didn't let him since it was money.

If Detective Conan was over, then what would they eat in the future?

Haru knew to make a popular magazine the key was the content as long as he could get a good manga then everything would go well.

Walking to the stage, Haru attracted a lot of attention and they knew very well that Haru was their boss along with the writer of all of the hot stories within the ”Viking Shounen Weekly Manga”.

It was undeniable such a medium publishing company would turn into a big company was because of Haru, but besides that Haru's presence was simply dazzling in their eyes.

Haru took the microphone and made everyone silent waiting for him to get something.

”Bungeishunjou, Shinchosha, Kodansha, Kobunsha, Kadokawa, Shokugan, etc.”

”.....”

Everyone was silent listening to Haru's speech while wondering why Haru listed the names of famous publishing companies in Japan.

”Those companies are all the big fish in this country, and no one can truly be called the number one in this country.

”But soon....”

Haru raised his index finger and said, ”Our company will overtake those companies and become the number one.....”

”First in this country, then the world.

”Just watch.”

Haru's tone was calm when he uttered such nonsense, but no one laughed at him rather they were boiling in excitement when they thought that they had become part of this company.

*Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!*

”Boss, you're so handsome!”

”Yeah, we're to become the number one!”

”Boss, make me pregnant!”

”.......”

Haru who was still on the stage joked along with everyone causing the party to become very festive and happy.
