"The Winner is Justice" tells the story of Kensuke Kumimon, a gold medal lawyer with a 100% winning rate and a weird and paranoid personality, and Machiko Dai, a new lawyer with a frank and simple personality, who work together to solve difficult cases.
The subject matter is a cold one, but the characters and plot continue the interesting style of "Sherlock Holmes".
Which of the editors who are able to stay in Huaying after experiencing such ups and downs and participate in such daily meetings is not an industry elite
However, even though they believe that they have "seen a lot" in their years of reviewing, when they read "The Winner is Justice" again, they still feel a rare sense of amazement.
"It's really interesting," another editor took over the conversation and said with emotion: "To be honest, if I hadn't seen this comic, I really wouldn't have thought that the theme of lawyers could be played in this way. It's amazing."
"And have you noticed that this comic is actually quite realistic in many ways," someone added, "That is, at first glance, you might think it's a cool comic like Taking Over Las Vegas, but in fact, every case has a deeper meaning."
“Yes, I think this is the best part of this comic.”
After the initial excitement, the editor who had slammed the table at first gradually calmed down. He said seriously: "It is entertaining and profound. Readers who don't like to use their brains can see how the protagonist wins one victory after another and remains undefeated. Readers who prefer serious drama can also reflect on the plot of the comics and think of many realistic things. I think this is very well done!"
As an unprecedented lawyer-themed comic, can this comic titled "The Winner is Justice" really become another existence to support the sales of "Huaying Comics"
No one mentioned this issue, or rather, for today's "Huaying Comics", the popularity of the subject matter is no longer a factor in the editorial department's judgment.
This is the capital of "Huaying Comics", and it is also the foundation naturally accumulated from several popular previous works.
In fact, this is indeed the signal conveyed by the comic "The Winner is Justice" on the Internet.
Without any announcement or artificial promotion, this seemingly strange comic name was directly ranked as the "No. 1 Most Anticipated Comic" in a comic information poll on the first day of its announcement by Huaying Comics. For all readers who like to read comics, the name "Muxuxing" is the best promotion.
"'The Winner Is Justice'? This comic name is too weird. How could the editor allow such a comic name to exist? ... ... ... ... Oh! I was wondering why the name of this comic is so unconventional and unusual, completely different from the coquettish and bitchy comics out there. It turns out to be Xingxing's new work. No wonder."
"??? Is the above so real?"
"Hello everyone, this is my first time chasing a comic star and I don't really understand the process. Should I just blow it or spray it first and then come over to smell good?"
"I'm really happy to have comics to read again, but I think Xingxing has been working too hard lately! I'm a little panicked."
“The comic fans above please cherish it. The fans of Huaying who only want to watch the animation and don’t want to follow the comics are the ones who are really crying. Although the animations produced by Huaying are not that bad, but... I still want to watch the animation directed by Xingxing himself!”
…
In fact, those who are interested in Mu Suxing’s new serial works are no longer limited to readers.
Although Huaying Comics has only been developed for less than a year, the phenomenal Sherlock Holmes series alone is enough to make Huaying the focus of major companies.
It’s fine if I can’t get the rights to adapt the animation, but it shouldn’t be impossible to get the authorization for TV series, movies, games, peripherals, etc., right
What's more, the comic works currently serialized in "Huaying Comics" are different from the hot-blooded youth comics in "Yanling Comics". The latter can only be animated at most, and once they are adapted into film and television dramas, it is easy for the audience to be distracted. However, the works under "Huaying Comics" do not have this problem.
Be it the earliest popular "Taking Las Vegas", or the subsequent counterattack Sherlock Holmes series and "Sherlock Holmes", or even this new work that has not yet revealed any plot, on the day that Huaying Comics announced the start of serialization of the next issue, it received inquiries from several large Blue Star entertainment companies!
"I heard that the next issue of Huaying Comics will start serializing a new work? Let the copyright purchasing department ask for the price. It would be best if we can get the copyright in advance. The price is negotiable."
As similar conversations took place in countless film and television companies, more calls came directly to Qiu Fengmao.
Some people asked him to name a price directly, while others tried to establish a relationship with him by treating him to a meal, which was so insignificant in their past. Qiu Fengmao was so amused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
In fact, when he was the editor-in-chief of Baiyun Comics, he received almost the same treatment - even worse.
After a year, Qiu Fengmao once again enjoyed the exclusive treatment of a top comics editor and he had mixed feelings.
Of course, no matter how complicated the mood is, I still have to refuse as tactfully as possible. Now that the work has not yet been officially launched, it is not a good choice to price and sell the comics too early - especially when you know that this comic has unlimited potential and some film and television companies want it.
"Rejected?"
In the Donggang Film and Television Office Building, listening to the news conveyed by his assistant, even though he had already guessed that "Huaying Comics" would not let go too early, Lu Kangbo couldn't help but feel a moment of regret and frustration.
But think about it, since Mu Xuxing was able to choose the latter between "Taking Las Vegas" and the Sherlock Holmes series, then this work, which was also chosen by Mu Xuxing, is likely to be another hit. Faced with a work of this level, as long as the editor-in-chief of "Huaying Comics" is not a fool, he will know that now is not the best time to sell it.
"Any news from other companies?" Lu Kangbo asked a little worriedly, "Huaying shouldn't have rejected only us, right?"
"Yes," the assistant replied, "Huaying gave the same response to all film and television companies, and I haven't heard of any company obtaining the copyright of Huaying yet."
"That's fine."
After receiving the assistant's affirmative answer, Lu Kangbo immediately felt relieved. As long as the painting had not been sold to others, everything would be fine.
The worst option is to compete fairly with other film and television companies in the end. If "The Winner is Justice" is indeed good enough, then no matter how much money the company spends, it will be worth it.
"You're too hasty to buy the comics before you know the content of them, aren't you?" a colleague muttered, "And it's a lawyer-themed comic that's most likely to go against the rules. In my opinion, it's not as good as the lawyer script you killed this morning. At least it's the work of a famous screenwriter in the film and television industry."
Lu Kangbo chuckled and was too lazy to argue with the other party.
Lv Kangbo also knew the script his colleague was talking about. If he was just an ordinary copyright purchasing employee, he might agree with the other party's opinion. After all, the work called "The Barrister" was indeed a script of good quality.
But this is under the premise that the new works of "Huaying Manga" are not about lawyers.
"The Lawyer" is indeed very good, and there are no sensitive plots that cross the line. However, in the opinion of Lu Kangbo, a veteran whose daily job is to review scripts, being too smooth is precisely the shortcoming of "The Lawyer".
The story is a good one, and it conveys positive energy that is in line with mainstream social values. However, it is precisely because it is too safe that the script seems to be unoriginal - an upright, brave and principled protagonist, an inhumane and vicious villain, and cases and defenses that seem exciting but are actually full of routine.
Works that are too "glorious and great" will not move the audience with the greatness of the protagonist, but will only make people frequently lose interest in the show - especially in a profession like lawyer, which has a certain degree of complexity in reality.
What about "The Winner is Justice"
Lu Kangbo didn't know what kind of story this comic would tell, but this did not affect his judgment based on Muxuxing's past achievements.
He had a hunch that if he chose another subject it would be fine, but if he really purchased "The Lawyer" and "The Winner is Justice" fell into the hands of other film and television companies, Donggang Film and Television, which had the same subject matter, would definitely be beaten to pieces.
…
It was four days later when Lu Kangbo actually got the latest issue of "Huaying Comics".
Although Lu Kangbo has always been confident in Mu Suxing's works, the specific copyright value of this comic still needs to be investigated.
He opened the comic book.
Similar to most mystery works, the first thing presented is the clip related to the first case.
Needless to say, the plot of the case is impressive. Lu Kangbo has read quite a few mystery-themed scripts. In this regard, the case in "The Winner is Justice" can only be considered average, and there is nothing worth remembering.
After a brief introduction to the case, the story progresses to the first meeting of the two protagonists.
In the crowded tram, the heroine Dai Machiko was about to ask an old man on the side to sit in the vacant seat. Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, a man in a hat came over in three or two steps and sat down without any courtesy.
Lu Kangbo's heart moved slightly.
From the current perspective, the heroine is obviously a character with upright values and a strong sense of justice, which is common in this type of subject matter. This is nothing, but the problem is that Lu Kangbo, who has seen the cover, remembers that the man who directly occupied the empty seat that the heroine was going to give to the old man without any explanation is the male protagonist of this comic.
interesting.
Lu Kangbo has seen many protagonists who give way to the elderly, but this is the first time he has seen someone snatch a seat for an elderly person.
It must be said that such a seemingly routine opening actually aroused his desire to explore the male protagonist—
How will the plot develop next? From Muxuxing's perspective, it shouldn't be the kind of melodramatic romance plot where the heroine teaches the hero a lesson and leaves a deep impression on him, right
With such curiosity, Lu Kangbo continued to read on.
As expected, facing Kumemon who was sitting in the seat that should have been given to the old man with a clear conscience, the heroine Dai Machiko once again asked him to give up his seat. However, after hearing this request, Kumemon just looked up at her, glanced at the old man standing not far away, and soon lowered his head as if nothing had happened, and calmly turned his gaze to the book in his hand.
Dai Machiko was a little angry.
"Don't you think it is a moral etiquette for people with good physical strength to give up their seats to people with weak physical strength?"
"I agree," the man said casually before the other party spoke again, "But, young people have physical strength, and old people don't have physical strength. Is it appropriate to judge them like this?"
Dai Machiko was slightly stunned.
"For example, I am 38 years old, but have you considered the possibility that I have a serious heart disease?"
The girl was obviously stumped by this unexpected answer. She was stunned for a moment and subconsciously followed the other person's words and asked, "Do you have one?"
Gu Meimen: “No.”
Machiko Dai: "..."
"Although he looks to be in his 60s, he goes to the fitness club regularly, and judging by the state of his bag—" At this point, Gu Meimen casually touched the old man's backpack: "It can be inferred that he is a very good expert. His strong pectoralis major muscles, tight abdominal and back muscles, and the relaxation of his calf triceps can be strongly felt even from outside his pants."
"Compared to me, who is poor and weak, his health is much better."
Without giving the girl a chance to retort, Kumimon said calmly, "Besides, that fitness club is right in front of this station."
As if to prove his inference, the old man walked down without hesitation as soon as the train stopped. Gu Meimen retracted his gaze and said lazily, "It's only a two-minute stop. Not only is there no need to give up your seat, I think even standing up and sitting down is pointless, so I didn't take the initiative to give up my seat. That's it. Do you have any objections?"
Dai Machiko:
How can there be such disgusting people in this world
The heroine in the comic got off the tram angrily, but Lu Kangbo outside the comic was amused by the beginning of this routine and the completely unexpected ending.
The character of the heroine is a bit cliché, but based on Lu Kangbo's experience, this is most likely a combination effect that the original author finally chose after considering the character of the hero. The characters of the hero and heroine are not single and independent, but complement and influence each other.
Judging from the subsequent plot of the comics, this seems to be the case in fact.
The heroine, Dai Machiko, is a new lawyer with a strong sense of justice. In order to reduce the sentence of her client, a "murderer", she hopes that the other party can confess his crime and strive for a reduced sentence.
The male protagonist, Gu Meimen, is a different kind of person.
Machiko Dai was at a loss when faced with the case. Finally, with the recommendation of her colleagues, she found the home of Kensuke Kumimon, a well-known lawyer who has maintained an undefeated record in the industry. After accidentally discovering that this so-called famous lawyer was the annoying guy on the train that day, she further understood the true nature of this great lawyer -
"As for me, I have no interest in anyone who makes an unjust judgment or who flirts with the jailer in prison. If you want to hire me, bring me the money first."
"If I take over, I will definitely win. If you can pay, I will help him get rid of the crime."
Facing the money-obsessed Kumimon, Dai Machiko simply couldn't understand: "This is not a matter of money. If justice is not served, then isn't the justice system of this country over?"
"If there is one more incompetent lawyer like you, the justice system of this country will be over." Gu Meimen raised the index finger of his right hand and said bluntly: "I tell you, justice can be bought with money. Give me the money!"
—A very realistic protagonist.
But it's also very interesting.
The plot of the first chapter of the comic ends here, but Lu Kangbo has been completely aroused by this comic.
Indeed, from the perspective of the plot, nothing can be seen at present, but Lu Kangbo, who is experienced and has reviewed countless scripts, can see at a glance the infinite possibilities that can be developed between the two male and female protagonists with very different personalities due to their different personalities and concepts.
There is no doubt that the sequel to this comic is worth looking forward to.
While major film and television companies are paying attention to this comic, readers of the comics have also given this new work unanimous praise, and the official satisfaction survey for the new work has reached an astonishing 90%!
As the plot of "The Winner is Justice" slowly unfolds, the characters of the two protagonists are further revealed. The most impressive one is undoubtedly Kensuke Kumimon, who is greedy and vicious, and will do anything to win the lawsuit. He lives like a villain, but convinces all readers.
Is the person involved really the murderer
With such doubts, Machiko Dai and Kumimon began to work hard for the defendant. After finding out that the defendant admitted that he was the murderer due to torture by the police, the innocence of the person involved seemed to have been indirectly proved. At the same time, Kumimon used money as an inducement to induce the coffee shop owner to provide a time certificate.
Compared to the serious lawyer characters commonly seen in various works, Kumimon's actions seem to have no bottom line - at least the act of inducing the coffee shop owner seems to be suspected of inducing perjury.
Until this point, readers, including Lu Kangbo, had not thought too much about it.
As long as the ending is good, what does it matter if the protagonist uses any means necessary
However, at this time, the outcome of the first case, with the defendant being acquitted, declared the victory of Kumimon and Machiko Dai, but the story took a completely unexpected turn at this time -
The defendant, who had behaved cowardly and harmless from beginning to end, showed an unhappy smile in the face of the criminal police's disgusted eyes after being acquitted.
"What kind of look is that?" He said, his voice was light, but it seemed to be full of infinite malice: "I will kill you next."
Just for a moment.
The next second, the boy turned around and gave a bright smile to the stunned Dai Machiko: "I'm just kidding."
The comics do not describe in detail Dai Machiko's feelings, but Lu Kangbo outside the comics was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat at this moment.
Could it be that, in the end, this seemingly successful lawsuit turned out to be a case in which the hero and heroine allowed a murderer to escape justice
The defendant walked away briskly, leaving Machiko standing there blankly. Facing the doubts and confusion in her heart, Kumimon showed the exact opposite indifference.
"Whether he killed someone or not is none of my business. I am not interested." In the comic, Gu Meimen said indifferently, "The evidence from the prosecutor's office was insufficient, so he was acquitted. This is the law."
"Don't be so narcissistic. We are not gods. We are just lawyers. It is impossible for us to know the truth."
The first case ended here, but the reversal at the end shocked Lu Kangbo so much that he couldn't recover for a long time.
Is the defendant really the murderer
No one knows.
It is true that the police tortured the defendant to force him to confess, and it is also true that there is insufficient evidence to identify the defendant as the murderer. In detective novels, readers standing in the perspective of God can of course determine who the real murderer is, but in reality, when there is insufficient evidence, who can guarantee that this so-called murderer is the real murderer
Lu Kangbo closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again and turned his gaze to the comic in front of him, he had a completely different feeling.
If at the beginning, Lu Kangbo only thought that the plot of this comic was good and the characters were outstanding, then this reversal would undoubtedly bring the entire work to another level.
The experienced and vengeful old detective insisted that his intuition led him to torture the defendant into confessing. This was wrong, but what if the defendant was the real murderer? Was Kumimon's behavior just
On the other hand, the criminal police determined that the defendant was the murderer based on their intuition, and then made the defendant admit his crime. How can this behavior be called "justice"
What exactly is true justice
Perhaps, this is the origin of the name of this comic -
The winner is justice.
Only the law and evidence can judge others, and what lawyers can do is to fight for the interests of their clients without any personal feelings on this basis.
Lu Kangbo took a deep breath.
He put down the comic in his hand and dialed a number without hesitation: "Old Chen, I found a script that can definitely be made into a masterpiece... "The Lawyer"? No, no, no, in comparison, that script is so cliché that it can't be compared with it at all!"
At this point, he glanced at the comics on the table and said in an unprecedentedly serious tone: "Listen to me, Lao Chen, if you miss this script, both you and I will definitely regret it for the rest of our lives!"
—
Just as various film and television companies were undercurrents and taking action, the popularity of "The Winner is Justice" also reached a peak after the first case was completed:
"This is the best lawyer comic I've ever read, bar none! I broke out in a cold sweat when I saw the ending, but when I think about it carefully, what Kumimon said does make sense. After all, the absolute truth only exists in novels, movies and TV dramas. There is no God's perspective in reality, and absolute truth and absolute justice do not exist."
"So shocking! I like this kind of protagonist who doesn't follow the ordinary path!"
"At first I thought it was just an ordinary urban romance between lawyers, but I didn't expect it to have such a profound meaning. This comic is really amazing!"
"It's really interesting. I feel like there's no absolute villain in this comic. The detective's behavior is hard to describe, but considering his starting point and the defendant's suspicion, I think it's really hard to say."
"Don't talk about villains. To be honest, don't you think that if Kumimon were put in other normal lawyer-themed works, he would be a villain who is ready to be taught a lesson by the protagonist2333333"
“I always feel that according to the routine, in the later plot, Kumimoto might be taught a lesson by Dai Machiko... But, how should I put it, when I think of this possibility, I am actually very unhappy. I know that Kumimoto’s thoughts have many extreme mistakes and even deserve a beating, but I really, inexplicably don’t want him to lose, I want to see him keep winning!”
It seemed like overnight.
The name of "The Winner is Justice" began to be mentioned frequently in forums of all sizes, chat groups, gatherings of young people in real life, and even chat groups of related practitioners. With the development of this new and unconventional theme of lawyers, the weekly sales of "Huaying Comics" have once again skyrocketed!
At the same time, the plots of "Sherlock" and the Sherlock Holmes series also entered their respective eras!
The combined effect of the three comics has brought unprecedented impact to the industry.
This time, not only the comics industry, but also the related animation and film and television circles have turned their attention to the reasoning field that has been neglected by them. Countless suspense and reasoning animations, TV series, and movies have been launched one after another. It is conceivable that for a long time in the future, this theme that was once ignored will become a big hit on Blue Star.
Faced with this phenomenon, the people who are obviously the happiest are the mystery enthusiasts who have always been sticking to this unpopular genre and have been having nothing to eat for years.
"I still can't believe this fact. Really, if someone had told me a year ago that suspense and mystery would one day become a hot genre on Blue Star, I would definitely have slapped him in the face. But now! If anyone says that I like unpopular genres, I will throw the comic book in his face!"
"Fans of unpopular themes for thousands of years are crying. There is food everywhere. Is this the experience of fans of hot themes? Wow, this is too happy!!"
"Boss, do you think this is a good way to create a grand event for reasoning?" Turning his eyes away from the comments section, Shen Xing said excitedly, "It's quite a sense of accomplishment to think about it!"
"It's a golden age of reasoning..." Muxuxing whispered to himself, "It seems like it's time."
Shen Xing looked confused: "It's time? What's the time?"
Mu Suxing coughed lightly, then looked away calmly without answering the question.
Shen Xing: “?”
Shen Xing's confusion did not last long.
Because soon, he knew what Mu Xuxing meant by "it's time".
…
Huaying Comics Editorial Department.
Seeing that "Huaying Comics" has produced another popular comic and directly created the current heyday of reasoning, Qiu Fengmao's mood is simply the best in recent years!
Tsk tsk, what about "Baiyun Comics" and "Yanling Comics", they are so weak, none of them can beat them!
It was at this time—
"Stop!" His eyes fell on someone who was sneaking around and trying to slip away without anyone noticing. Qiu Fengmao felt his heart suddenly beat violently. The high-spirited editor-in-chief Qiu paused his smug mood and frowned for the first time today: "Have you submitted the manuscript for the next issue?"
There is no doubt that in the eyes of Editor-in-Chief Qiu, who has switched to the emotionless mode of urging manuscripts to be submitted, Mu Suxing is no longer his boss, but a lazy author who deserves special attention.
Mu Suxing was speechless: "Old Qiu, you are serious, right? I just mumbled once, do you have to guard me like that?"
Qiu Fengmao remained unmoved, with a grim expression on his face: "Where's the manuscript?"
Mu Suxing raised his chin towards the direction of his office and said naturally, "They are all in your office. I have already drawn the Sherlock Holmes series and "The Winner is Justice". If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself."
Until here, the alarm in Qiu Fengmao's heart was still not lifted. He firmly held Mu Suxing and said, "Gu, there is only one time and countless times. Your credit value with me has gone bankrupt. You must wait for my confirmation before you can leave."
The other party's attitude was so firm that Mu Suxing had no choice but to compromise: "Okay."
Time was running out, and the other party was his boss after all. Qiu Fengmao didn't feel comfortable watching it live. What if his boss was busy and had something urgent to do
With this mentality, the kind-hearted Qiu Fengmao roughly flipped through the drawings on his desk. After making sure that Mu Suxing had not used fakes to deceive him, he quickly waved his hand and let it go.
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
The work at hand had been basically completed, Qiu Fengmao breathed a sigh of relief and happily returned to his office.
As the editor-in-chief of a comics weekly, Qiu Fengmao is of course also a comics lover. His favorite work in "Huaying Comics" must naturally be the Sherlock Holmes series.
As the editor-in-chief of the comics, when given the opportunity to see updates in advance, Qiu Fengmao would naturally not be like ordinary readers who foolishly wait until the weekly magazine comes out before reading it.
With an unprecedented relaxed and happy mood, Qiu Fengmao smiled and opened the draft of the next issue of the Sherlock Holmes series.
At this time, the plot of the Sherlock Holmes series has also progressed to **—
Under the Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes and his mortal enemy, James Moriarty, had their final showdown in the form of a fistfight.
Both of them fell into the abyss.
Qiu Fengmao: … … …
Both fell into the abyss...
Who is Shuangshuang
