893, Kaka Manga becomes the biggest winner? This is shameful plunder! (Seeking full subscription)
In the following days, Fang Yang and the others personally interviewed those manga artists who had been treated unfairly and organized their stories into text to be published on social media.
Once these reports were published, they immediately attracted wider attention.
More and more people joined their voices, posting comments and reposting information one after another, calling for the protection of the rights and interests of manga artists.
Some senior netizens contacted the media through their own channels, hoping to attract wider attention.
Manga artists realized that simple exposure could not solve the problem, so some victims decided to seek help from the law to seek to maintain their rights and interests.
They gathered together and formed a spontaneous rights protection team.
Fang Yang, Li Zhou, and Liu Yiyi immediately took action and actively supported the manga artists' decision.
They contacted a well-known lawyer who specialized in media-related legal affairs.
The lawyer studied the contracts signed by the manga artists and felt deeply angry.
"These yin-yang contracts are simply plunder of creators! This seriously violates the Contract Law and the Labor Law." The lawyer stated that he was willing to provide legal aid to the manga artists and worked with them to formulate countermeasures.
Subsequently, the rights protection team carried out close cooperation with the lawyer.
They collected evidence, organized case materials, and prepared to file a lawsuit in court.
At the same time, Fang Yang and the others also constantly updated the situation, telling more people on social media that the manga artists were taking action.
Meanwhile, the lawyer published a statement in the media, detailing the unfair contracts and the behavior of exploiting creators by Penguin Manga and other companies.
This statement immediately caused a sensation, and all remarks reporting that Penguin Manga and other companies were trampling on the rights and interests of creators were flooded.
The media condemned this practice of yin-yang contracts and called for strengthening the supervision of companies.
For a time, Penguin Manga became notorious, losing a large amount of traffic and a large number of manga artists.
Many readers expressed that they would no longer buy their works and turned to support Kaka Manga and Fang Yang and the others.
Hearing that the rights protection action had achieved initial victory, many manga artists expressed that they wanted to resign and join Kaka Manga.
They saw Kaka Manga's honest operation and good treatment and decided to invest their creative talent in this platform.
Driven by public opinion, some famous manga artists had decided to join Kaka Manga.
This included some manga artists who had been wronged at Penguin Manga, as well as other creators who hoped for better development space.
They contacted Liu Yiyi one after another and expressed their willingness to join the Kaka Manga family.
Liu Yiyi was overjoyed when she learned this news; she felt that she finally had the opportunity to rebuild a great and potential-filled team.
Not long after, many manga artists who were invited to join Kaka Manga signed contracts one after another.
They represented works of various styles and themes, giving readers more rich and diverse choices.
As new works were launched one after another, Kaka Manga's reputation became even louder, and it quickly became the hottest manga website.
Among them, the two high-quality manga, *Naruto* and *Bleach*, were particularly loved by readers.
Relying on brilliant plots, unique drawing styles, and delicate character portrayals, they quickly won the hearts of hundreds of millions of readers.
This made Kaka Manga the focus of attention for numerous fans.

The exciting situation made Liu Yiyi extremely excited.
She immediately came up with an event to attract popularity and increase exposure.
She invited every important manga artist who had newly joined the Kaka Manga team to hold an online autograph meeting and held a voting event on the website homepage, letting readers choose their favorite works.
This event caused a huge sensation in a short period of time.
Not only did readers who originally supported Kaka Manga actively participate in the voting, but more new readers who had switched from Penguin Manga and other platforms also came to the Kaka Manga website with expectations.
After completing today's manga with Li Zhou, Fang Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He sat quietly on the chair in the studio, savoring the work he had just completed.
Whether it was the visuals or the plot, he was very satisfied. Fang Yang looked up at Li Zhou.
"Li Zhou, our efforts today have paid off. This manga is really good; I believe readers will definitely like it."
Li Zhou smiled and nodded.
"Fang Yang, you are really amazing. Every time I see you drawing manga with focus, I can feel your passion."
Fang Yang smiled slightly and then stood up.
"Thank you for your praise. But I am a bit hungry now; let's go to a nearby restaurant to have a good meal and relax."
The two walked out of the studio and looked for a suitable restaurant on the street.
They found a restaurant hidden in a small alley and stepped into the shop.
The lighting in the shop was dim and warm, and the walls were covered with exquisite photographic works.
Delicious dishes and drinks were placed on the table.
"Fang Yang, what do you like to eat?" Li Zhou asked.
Fang Yang said with a smile: "I like to try different delicacies. You can order some dishes you think are good."
Li Zhou nodded and then began to pick dishes for the two of them.
He skillfully ordered a few specialty dishes and a bottle of red wine.
Soon, the dishes were served on the table.
Fang Yang picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth.
The delicious taste spread on the tip of his tongue, making him couldn't help but close his eyes, enjoying this deliciousness.
"This restaurant is really great," Fang Yang praised, "Every dish is full of creativity and exquisiteness."
Li Zhou said with a smile: "Yeah, I heard a friend's recommendation before I came. I didn't expect it to be so delicious."
The two chatted while eating, relaxing their bodies and minds in the food and wine.
Fang Yang finished the last bite of the dish, put down his chopsticks, and felt heavy all over.
His eyes were a bit red; staring at the computer screen to draw manga for a long time had made him feel exhausted.
Li Zhou noticed Fang Yang's state and said with concern: "Fang Yang, you look a bit tired. Why don't you take a rest? You have been going all out for Kaka Manga, but you also need to pay attention to adjusting your state."
Fang Yang smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, I'm fine. It's just that I occasionally feel a bit tired."
Li Zhou said firmly: "You cannot ignore your physical condition. If you continue like this, it will be unfavorable for your creation and health. You need to give yourself an opportunity to relax and rest."
Fang Yang looked at Li Zhou quietly; he knew that Li Zhou was genuinely concerned about him and expressed it in no uncertain terms.
"Thank you for your concern, Li Zhou," Fang Yang said softly, "Maybe you are right; I do need to take a rest."
After the two left the restaurant, Fang Yang did not return to the studio immediately but followed Li Zhou to a nearby coffee shop.

They found a corner to sit down and ordered two cups of coffee.
Fang Yang took a sip of coffee and felt a warm liquid flow into his body; the fatigue gradually faded away.
He looked up at the ceiling, his thoughts slowly drifting away.
"Fang Yang, do you know? You have been working continuously for several months," Li Zhou looked at Fang Yang and said seriously, "You have been pursuing perfection and constantly challenging yourself, but you must also remember to leave yourself room to breathe."
Fang Yang and Li Zhou sat in the corner of the coffee shop, drinking steaming coffee.
The noise of people not far away, the music, and the sound of laughter were intertwined, creating a relaxed and happy atmosphere.
Fang Yang took a sip of coffee, closed his eyes slightly, and enjoyed this rare moment of tranquility.
He felt his body gradually regain some strength, and the fatigue gradually receded.
However, in this tranquility, the phone rang.
Fang Yang took out his phone and found that it was a message from his manga fan group.
He clicked on it and found that the group was filled with various comments urging him to rest.
"Master Fang Yang, you are tired! Please be sure to take a rest!"
"Hope Fang Yang can take care of his health!"
"Fang Yang, you have worked hard! We are all worried about you!"
Fang Yang felt a bit moved looking at these messages; although he was just an online manga creator, so many people were concerned about him.
He smiled gently and replied: "Thank you all for your concern. I will pay attention to adjusting my state and recover as soon as possible."
Li Zhou looked at Fang Yang replying to the messages and asked with some confusion: "Why are you working so hard?"
Fang Yang gave a wry smile and explained: "You should still remember the promise I made when I first entered the industry, right? I once said that I would draw a manga that would resound throughout the world within a week. Although it was a joke at the time, many people are now looking forward to my works."
"I know it's already impossible to do, but I still hope to release my manga book early."
After hearing this, Li Zhou's brows furrowed slightly; he could see that Fang Yang was very serious about his promise, but this high-intensity way of working was not good for his body.
"Fang Yang, I understand that you want to fulfill your promise. But you also have to consider your physical condition," Li Zhou said with concern, "Now many people are paying attention to and supporting you; they hope that you can maintain a good state to complete your works, rather than forcing yourself to cope."
Fang Yang nodded silently; he knew that Li Zhou was right. ===== CHAPTER 744 =====
