The matter of Shadow has been settled.
From now on, the work required for the Alliance will be considerably easier.
Currently, the Alliance has both Dead Sea of Fire and The Kindaichi Case Files, which are steadily increasing the website's popularity.
Now, they have the extremely popular Dunk as well!
Of these five comics, barring The Kindaichi Case Files that falls slightly short, the remaining four are all phenomena-level!
As these comics release more content, their popularity will definitely continue to climb!
By that time, even Tribe Comics might not be able to keep up!
It is important to mention Han Jimei here...
Han Jimei is indeed very capable.
As Dunk was becoming popular, she has recently pushed out numerous benefits on the website to appeal to comic artists.
Previously, comic artists had no choice but to join Tribe since they monopolized the industry.
Now, however, the artists have a new choice and are starting to consider joining the Alliance.
Some people have already taken action, including some rather capable comic artists.
Needless to say,
The traffic of the Alliance has boomed thanks to the rapid popularity of Shadow's five comics!
With such a solid base of traffic, the Alliance is a good choice for the comic artists.
Of course,
Despite all this, Tribe Comics remains the industry leader due to their solid foundation. Regardless of how excellent Shadow's comics are, they can't instantly overthrow Tribe Comics' years of achievements.
It might be possible if these comics' popularity explodes completely.
But it would take time.
In the meanwhile, Tribe Comics remains everyone's first choice and the Alliance seems more like an alternative.
Han Jimei, through her actions, has been consistently closing that gap, because the Alliance can't solely depend on Shadow forever.
This resolves many of Lin Yuan's worries.
One day,
Upon arriving in the office of Starlight.
Lin Yuan began to consider Chu Kuang's situation.
Ever since he finished "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", he hadn't started a new serialization.
After the fuss between Xian Yu and Shadow, it's about time for Chu Kuang to make a move.
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
"Why not fill in the gaps in Fairytale?"
Lin Yuan hadn't forgotten about the unresolved sections in the lyrics of Fairytale Town.
At this moment,
Gu Dong knocked and came in: "Mr. Lin, someone wants to meet with you."
"Who?"
"The company's chief agent, Zhao Jue."
"Ms. Zhao?"
Lin Yuan got up and walked to the door, "Where is she?"
Zhao Jue was brought into Starlight by Lin Yuan, so in a way, she was his benefactor.
Furthermore, Zhao Jue had previously helped Lin Yuan a lot, she even let him stay in her spare house without charging rent.
Lin Yuan remembers all of these.
"She's here."
The voice came from behind Gu Dong, Zhao Jue was looking at Lin Yuan with a smile.
"Please take a seat."
Lin Yuan said with a smile.
A warm feeling flashed in Zhao Jue's heart, she could tell that Lin Yuan wanted to personally welcome her at the door.
A lot has changed over the years.
Once upon a time, Lin Yuan needed Zhao Jue's care.
But now, Lin Yuan held a high position in Starlight; even the chairman was courteous to him.
Zhao Jue was not even in the same league as Lin Yuan anymore.
To be frank,
Zhao Jue's position was dependent on Lin Yuan's good graces.
Under these circumstances, Lin Yuan choosing to welcome her personally touched her heart.
Although Lin Yuan might seem cold towards other people,
He is indeed a person who values emotional connections deeply.
Gu Dong, who was standing at the side, was somewhat surprised; the last time the chairman came over, Mr. Lin did not get up to welcome him...
It seems that Mr. Lin highly values Zhao Jue, the Chief Agent of the company.
She quickly moved to pour tea.
After taking a seat, Zhao Jue remarked with emotion: "Your office is quite luxurious, it's at least twice the size of mine."
"Alright."
Lin Yuan responded: "I'll ask the chairman to arrange a bigger one for you."
Zhao Jue: "..."
Is this the power of Crown Prince?
She shook her head repeatedly: "That's not what I meant, I came here today to ask for a favor."
"Sure."
Lin Yuan agreed immediately.
Zhao Jue chuckled bitterly: "I haven't even mentioned what the favor is."
"What is it?"
Lin Yuan took a sip of tea.
Zhao Jue's expression became slightly serious: "The company is planning to entrust me as the director of the television department."
Out of curiosity Lin Yuan asked, "Isn't Uncle Zhou in charge of the television department?"
Zhao Jue smiled again: "Ol' Zhou has too many things to handle, between the television and film departments, as well as situations arising in the music department that requires his attention. He voluntarily recommended me to the chairman to manage the television department, you could say it is also a promotion for me."
"Congratulations, Ms. Zhao."
"Let's not talk about congratulations yet,"
Ms. Zhao sighed: "Running the TV department is not easy. This department was only established because of Journey to the West, which you and Chu Kuang created. Aside from that, there's hardly any other work produced by the TV department."
It was true.
If it wasn't for the intent to produce Journey to the West, the company wouldn't have established the television department. However, since it was hastily set up for this particular show, many preparations were somewhat rushed, which led to the department being poorly developed.
The only saving grace was the second season of Journey to the West, which brought in some recognition.
Yes.
The second season of Journey to the West was now on air. It continued with the adventures of the teacher-student quartet traveling to the West, battling monsters, and was widely accepted. However, due to high costs, it was not easy to recover the investment.
Besides that, the response to other projects of the department were mediocre at best.
Being put in charge of the television department is good for Zhao Jue since it's a departmental position, but it is a challenge to ensure its proper development, a problem that has been troubling her recently.
