I'm drawing an action-packed anime within a depressing one!

[What kind of heartbreaking plot is this?! I'm going to throw a tantrum! Gojo Satoru is sealed away, what am I supposed to watch?!]

[The next part should be the unsealing and then the final battle, right? They can't possibly kill me off again, can they? Gojo Satoru is so popular right now, he's probably the most popular character in the manga, right?]

[Old He understands the concept of first suppressing then elevating; after suppressing it for so long, shouldn't it be time for the elevation?]

Readers were immediately reminded of Lady Yin's death in "Ne Zha," and many of them cried their eyes out back then. Now, their mood suddenly soured again.

I have a bad feeling about this!

Didn't we already renew Gojo Satoru's subscription?

Why is it sealed away?!

The comments section is full of people who were heartbroken and started analyzing the situation.

So this person stole Natsuyuu's corpse, became Natsuyuu, knew about the bond between Gojou and Natsuyuu, and orchestrated the sealing of Gojou?

[I have a feeling there will be a lot of heart-wrenching plot developments coming up; I almost can't bear to watch them.]

My only requirement for Lao He right now is that he stays alive.

[Old He, you're not going to draw a bad ending too, are you?! No way!!]

"Tian Xiaoxi!"

On the phone.

Song Yaoyao looked panicked: "Did you ask Lao He if Gotō Sō will die?!"

...

Tian Xiaoxi hadn't asked He Zhou yet.

But as she watched the plot unfold, she felt a perfect resonance with it.

"It's obvious he's going to die."

"It's art to see such a character die."

"Their lives..."

Before he could finish speaking, Song Yaoyao scolded him.

"You're not allowed to say that!!"

"You are you! Lao He is Lao He! Lao He would never draw like this! The next scene will definitely be the unsealing plot!"

Just thinking about it made Song Yaoyao feel terrible; the plot had completely captivated her and she couldn't calm down.

In the forum for action manga, the page was filled with posts from frustrated manga fans who couldn't find any relief.

[Can anyone with some serious knowledge explain what the future storyline would be like if Gojo Satoru were sealed away?]

[Did anyone understand this prison gate? How do you unseal this damn thing? Will Gojo Satoru get into trouble inside?]

[Aaaaaaaah! Old He actually managed to seal Gojo Satoru away! Holy crap! It must be Tian Xiaoxi who corrupted him!!]

While the comic readers were starting to panic, Song Yaoyao commented in utter despair: "Tian Xiaoxi said that according to the plot, Gojo Satoru will die, but that's what Tian Xiaoxi said. He Zhou hasn't said anything yet. I'm starting to panic!"

...

"So many posts about Wutiao Wu?"

When Operations Officer #2 saw that the entire Hot-Blooded Manga Plaza was filled with Gojo Satoru's name, he turned to Operations Officer #1 and asked, "Is this the manga you used to love?"

"Ah."

Operations Officer #1 frowned and sighed: "If this trend continues, it does seem a bit out of place for a shonen manga."

"With Gojo Satoru sealed away, things are likely to spiral out of control. The villains seem to be much stronger than the main characters."

"It looks like the drawing is going to go wrong."

Previously, it could be considered a unique shonen manga because Gojo Satoru was supporting it, but at that time, the operations manager No. 1 felt that there was a bit of danger.

As it turns out, He Zhou actually dared to draw the plot where Gojo Satoru was sealed away.

With Gojo Satoru sealed away, the high-level sorcery in reality is incredibly corrupt, and the consequences could be complete collapse. When Gojo Satoru is released, the situation may be beyond repair.

In this situation, the comic has already been drawn poorly.

"That shouldn't be the case."

"With He Zhou's exceptional storytelling abilities, how could he make such a mistake?"

Although Operations Officer No. 1 felt a bit of danger deep down, he still looked forward to what would happen next.

...

The operations manager next to him, number 2, looked at the rapidly increasing number of posts on the comic plaza with a look of admiration in his eyes.

"The entire Hot-Blooded Manga Plaza was set on fire by Gojo Satoru."

"Jujutsu Kaisen is indeed a hit."

Chapter 152: Someone plagiarized!

The spectacular sealing of Gojo Satoru, coupled with the previous scenes of everyone tipping Gojo Satoru, made this manga an instant hit.

The total number of collections for the "Monster City" comic has exceeded 100,000.

The collection of Light Spells during the war numbered 50,000.

The entire comic presented a dark horse trend, like a black hole siphoning the traffic of the entire essay contest list.

Both the new user acquisition rate and the growth rate are far ahead.

"never mind."

"I can't hold on any longer."

"Let's withdraw from the competition."

After several days of deliberation, Qingshan Lushui has finally decided to withdraw from the competition.

If we don't withdraw from the competition now, and wait a few days, it might be too late.

Comics are very curly.

The data stream push mechanism is also brutal; once traffic is siphoned off and you withdraw from the competition, it's very difficult to recover the lost data.

Qingshan Lushui immediately told his editor, Jiang Bai.

[Green Hills and Clear Waters: Bai Da, I'm planning to withdraw from the competition. I think Jujutsu Kaisen might start to siphon off viewership. Right now, he's only drawn up to Gojo Satoru being sealed away, and everyone's looking forward to him being unsealed. His viewership will only continue to rise.]

[Green hills and clear waters: Retreating now, before a siphon effect occurs, is probably the best course of action.]

...

Upon seeing this news, Jiang Bai did not stop the green hills and clear waters.

Jiang Bai: If you've made up your mind, I have no problem with that.

[Jiang Bai: But are you sure? The standards for attracting traffic are very high. The traffic on the current writing contest list is still quite good. If you quit, you won't be able to get on.]

It's like having a stock that's skyrocketing in front of you, and you don't know if it's reached its peak and will crash, or if it will continue to rise in small increments.

It all comes down to the potential of the person in front of you.

However, from the perspective of the beautiful mountains and clear waters, He Zhou's potential is top-notch.

[Green hills and clear waters: Retreat.]

[Green Hills and Clear Waters: This comic is the culmination of my hard work, and I don't want any problems to arise.]

After Qingshan Lishui withdrew from the competition.

Other shrewd figures on other lists also began to withdraw from the competition.

If they can't get into the top three and their traffic is being siphoned off, what's the point?

...

all of a sudden.

Of the top ten people on the essay contest list, three or four withdrew from the competition.

This situation stunned many readers.

This is withdrawal from the competition!

Although someone withdrew from the competition last time, that was a Chinese cat.

Only the book "Soul Contract" by Zhonghua Mao received such treatment, and that was several years ago.

The editorial office.

"The results of the first PK are about to be announced."

The operations team has started pulling up the data for all the comics and selecting 20 out of the 50 comics in this round to advance.

The attrition rate is more than 50%.

When others see the rankings of "Jujutsu Kaisen" displayed above, they can be almost certain that this manga will make it onto the app's homepage, but they don't know if it will meet the printing standards.

To make it into an animation, it must first be printed as a physical comic and sold.

Five books from each of the six channels are featured on the homepage.

Of the thirty books, only three can be applied for publication, and ultimately it depends on whether the physical comic book publishing house will select them.

However, most of the time it's a choice of one out of three, and there won't be a situation where you have to choose more than one.

This is a complete system.

...

"Jujutsu Kaisen is powerful, but this time the romance manga 'Winter Sonata' is a healing manga with a touch of suspense and a very unique style. I heard that a publishing house has already selected it in advance."

Operations Officer #2 handed over the materials: "Winter Sonata is by Jiang Ting. Although she is only a Level 5 manga artist, her level of skill in romance anime is quite good."

"Her previous comic book went very well in print, and this one is designed for an anime adaptation, and it's very suitable for an anime adaptation."

The assistant next to him also handed over some dark horse comics from other channels.

"There's also a very good horror/suspense book called 'Cycle Horror,' which tells the story of an endless cycle of terror."

"The overall effect is excellent. Although only six episodes have been released, it already has 80,000 favorites."

"Also a level 5 comic artist."

"There are also two books: 'Sword and Blade Sect', 'Hanging Up', and 'Evil God'."

"The competition is fierce."

There is no upper limit to the level of a comic book author.

Each level is difficult to advance to.

If your annual income doesn't reach the target, it will drop in the following year; it's not permanent.

Very few people can remain in a high-level position indefinitely.

...

When asked about anime adaptations, Operations Officer #1 said in a nonchalant tone: "Jujutsu Kaisen is more suitable for anime adaptations."

"but…"

He had no choice but to deny it.

The authors behind each of these comics are veteran comic artists who are not only popular but also talented. Some of them have powerful connections and are willing to spend money.

This industry is lucrative, so many people are entering it, and naturally, there are many different approaches.

He Zhou is clearly unwilling to spend money on himself, nor will he buy marketing or promotion, and he doesn't have any old fans.

It's really hard to win if you rely solely on the quality of the comics.

"Don't I still have some promotional resources?"

Operations Officer #1 directly used points to redeem a promotional event for He Zhou's "Jujutsu Kaisen": "Give him some resources."

Whether He Zhou can become a sensation and crush other equally popular comics on other channels at the same time, obtain printing qualifications, and take a crucial step, all depends on the quality of his upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen comic.

Even if Jujutsu Kaisen cannot be printed.
