But for Seto Yuzhi, he couldn't do it.

In the previous Mantansha Literary Awards, because of doubts about the results of the awards, Seto Yuzhi took the initiative to stand up for herself.

So, whether it is kindness or favor, he must find a chance to repay it.

Seto Yuzhi took a sip of coffee and shook his head, "Mr. Akihara, I hope you don't think I'm meddling. But you should know why I'm here today."

Kento Furukawa asked her to come here this time. In addition, even the former editor-in-chief of "Tokyo Literature" also hoped that she could help.

Due to a series of turmoil, the sales of the two magazines "Tokyo Literature" and "New" have dropped by a full 1% compared to a month ago.

After all, she is still a signed writer serialized in "Tokyo Literature and Art", so the decline in sales will also have a certain impact on herself.

Seeing Yuuto Akihara nodding, Yuji Seto sighed again, and then said: "To be honest, Mandansha entrusted me this time, but I also have a certain selfishness. Therefore, it is up to Mr. Akihara to accept the settlement." Balance it yourself."

After a pause, she added: "The matter of banning has always been handled privately by Takei Kohei, so I haven't heard any news. But this matter is indeed too much, so even if Mr. Akihara, you don't I don't think there is anything wrong with accepting the conditions here."

Hiroto Akihara was silent for a while, and then replied: "Actually, I don't want to get to where I am today. I can only say that many things are very unpredictable."

He picked up the coffee and took a sip, then said: "Mr. Seto, if possible, I am willing to accept Mandansha's reconciliation because of your favor. But because of the current public opinion, if I agree to reconcile, I will be punished." Maybe I think it's a 'traitor'. So, I'm sorry..."

No matter which country or society it is in, things will get extra complicated when it comes to political groups.For example, the white left and white right in the United States in the previous life is a clear case.

The behavior and actions of any key person will be continuously expanded by the group that supports him.If these behaviors do not meet the wishes of supporters, they are often immediately abandoned or even spurned.

In other words, although he himself has obtained a lot of benefits under the banner of the tribal people, it is also difficult for him to ride a tiger, let alone issue a "statement of understanding".

Seto Yuzhi nodded in understanding, and then handed over a document, "Deputy Gu Chuan just entrusted me to hand over this document to you for your review. As for whether to accept it, it depends on your opinion."

Akihara Hiroto thought for a while, then took the file and read it.

After all, if you just look at it briefly, it won't take up much time.

But as he watched, he couldn't help being surprised...

This Gu Chuan executive is worthy of being a publicist for many years. According to his proposal, not only can he solve his current problem of riding a tiger, but he can also solve the current crisis of Mandanshe...

[Chapter 156.155 The end of the clown]

Akihara lowered his head, looked at the documents in his hand, and involuntarily weighed the pros and cons.

According to this document, I didn't need to issue any statement of understanding, but accepted some media interviews arranged by Mandansha, and put the main responsibility on Takei Kohei and Kihara Daigo.

After that, Mandansha will also take corresponding measures and hold a press conference to apologize, pointing out that due to the negligence of the management, Kihara Daigo, who has the political intention of Burakumin discrimination, made corresponding wrong measures.

They will be punished accordingly at the press conference.

At the same time, Mandansha will also arrange a large amount of media publicity, and put all the responsibilities on Kihara Daigo and Takei Kohei.

In this way, Mantanshe can successfully realize "abandoning the car to protect the handsome", and change the public's impression of this incident from "Mantanshe discriminates against Burakumin from all over the place" to "Mantanshe's lax management has caused some employees to Discriminate against Burakumin".

And through the punishment of these "responsible persons", Mantanshe can establish a "rehabilitation" image.

As for the political groups of Burakumin, there will be no objections.After all, Daigo Kihara, as the head of the department, can already be regarded as a high-level executive, and his punishment can represent the victory of the Burakumin in protecting their own rights and interests to a certain extent.

In addition, Mandanshe has even contacted the leaders of some political groups on its own initiative, promising to give a certain amount of political donations.

Under such an arrangement, Mandanshe, Burakumin, and Akihara Hiroto can all get the results they want.

Hiroto Akihara picked up the coffee, took a sip, and then nodded towards Tamae Seto who was sitting across from him, expressing that he accepted the proposal of this executive from Furukawa.

As a capital giant, Mandanshe's attack from public opinion has had a considerable impact on it, but it can't be called a traumatic degree.It is undoubtedly an irrational decision to continue to entangle with it.

No matter how you look at it, this farce has lasted for too long, and it is time for me to let it end.

As for myself, I should return to the normal process of writing and publishing books...

……

Two days later, at 10 o'clock in the morning, Chiyoda Ward, Akihara Yuu's house.

Hiroto Akihara and Aiko Asano knelt on the tatami in the living room, watching the lit TV screen together, with different thoughts.

On the TV screen, a press conference is being held.

Sitting on the rostrum of this press conference were the president, vice president and several other high-level executives of the Mantan Club.

After the press conference, the president first gave a speech on a series of recent incidents, and then stated that Mandanshe absolutely did not discriminate against any social groups.

Immediately afterwards, the arranged point of view was expounded: this series of incidents was caused by the private behavior and values ​​of individual employees, and Mantanshe absolutely did not agree with it.

As for these employees who made wrong actions, Mantanshe will definitely punish them severely and will not tolerate them.

After all this was said, with the continuous flashing lights, everyone on the rostrum, including the president, stood up, and then bowed deeply to the many journalists in the audience at a 90-degree posture, expressing their respect Apologies for everything that happened before.

Seeing all this, Hiroto Akihara couldn't help but feel a little bit embarrassed. To be honest, it's only been half a year since the series of entanglements between himself and Mandansha, but in this half year, he has spent a lot of mind and energy.

Even some of the original plans were delayed because of this.

Unexpectedly, everything came to an abrupt end now.

As for the rest, it is to plan well what to write next.

While he was thinking, the phone rang, Hiroto Akihara stood up, walked to the entrance and answered the phone.After listening for 10 minutes, he ended the call.

He walked back to the living room and said to Asano Aiko who was still watching the TV screen: "Asano, Sensei Seto called just now and informed me of Mandansha's handling of Daigo Kihara and Kohei Takei."

Hearing these words, Asano Aiko turned her head and looked at Akihara Yuto in surprise.

Hiroto Akihara continued: "Dago Kihara voluntarily resigned from the position of head of Mandansha, but taking into account the influence of internal employees, Mantansha still arranged a job for him, that is, to be in charge of warehousing and sending and receiving work in a printing factory in Hokkaido; as for Takei Kohei, Mandansha transferred him to the Shikoku area, and arranged him as Kikuchita's subordinate, responsible for the text proofreading work."

After a pause, he shook his head and said, "If there is no accident, they will never be able to return to Tokyo in this lifetime."

The result of this treatment surprised Akihara Hiroto, but it was also within his expectation.

After all, although Kihara Daigo and Takei Kohei are the root cause of everything, but in the matter of the Burakumin, the two of them really took the blame for Mantansha.

If they were directly expelled and dismissed, if the two of them ran outside and yelled loudly, there would be serious troubles.

If some of them even commit suicide because they have no source of income, Mandanshe will be in a lot of trouble.

But in Akihara Hiroto's point of view, this kind of processing result is enough.

For people with status and status, the cruelest thing is to deprive them of all their rights.

As for Kihara Daigo and Takei Kohei, they could all be considered as persons of certain status.

One is the head of Mandanshe, who has a certain status in the publishing industry; the other is the deputy editor-in-chief and is expected to become the editor-in-chief.

According to Mandanshe's handling results, both of them were sent to the remote corners of Neon, and even reduced to the point where they could only earn a little average salary by manual labor; They disconnected.
