Big Manga

Chapter 10: News

"The sales volume of "Weekly Boys" once again broke through, and an additional 100,000 copies were printed?"

"This is already the fifth week of overprinting!"

Zhou Qing is the editor-in-chief of comics on China's largest news website. He went to work this day, frowning and looking at the materials in his hand.

The Phoenix Company hadn't made any big moves recently, but the sales of "Weekly Boys" had increased for five consecutive weeks. He couldn't ignore this news topic. He had also heard good feedback on an original detective manga released by Weekly Boys, but Zhou Qing didn't pay attention at the time.

The author of that comic is a newcomer, Zhou Qing thought it was just a flash in the pan, but now it seems that he was wrong.

"Does any of you remember the name of the detective comics published by Weekly Boys?"

Zhou Qing raised his head and asked the editors who were writing the manuscript.

""Detective Conan"!"

All the editors looked up and answered almost in unison.

Zhou Qing was taken aback: "You all know?"

"Of course I know, this original comic is very popular recently."

"My girlfriend and I both like to read it, but it is very difficult to buy "Weekly Shonen", and every time it is released, it will be sold out early in the morning."

It's so hot! Zhou Qing was startled. The information he held in his hand showed that Phoenix Company had been reprinting. If even this would sell out early in the morning, then the charm of this original comic would be beyond imagination.

"Why didn't you tell me the news earlier!"

Zhou Qing was a little displeased that such a good news subject was left behind by him for several weeks.

"Editor-in-chief, didn't you say that news about original comics is worthless?"

The other editors are a little innocent. This editor-in-chief has never disdained original comics, and he didn't take it seriously when someone suggested it before.

Old Zhou Qing blushed, and patted the table angrily: "This doesn't count, how could there be such a powerful original comic before! Well, don't talk nonsense, write me a manuscript quickly, and everyone will hand in a copy of "Famous Detective" before noon today. Conan's press release, the content is eye-catching, I want to choose one to publish!"

"Ah, everyone!"

"The editor-in-chief doesn't want..."

"Salary will be deducted if you don't write, and 600 will be added if you choose!"

Zhou Qing snorted coldly, and no one objected immediately. A news plus 600 salary is very attractive.

Liu De is an executive of a company. That evening, he drove home.

"Sweetie, Dad is back!" He took off his coat, took out a thick magazine from his bag and shouted, "Dad bought you "Weekly Boys", and you can see who the criminal is in this issue! "

He had a smile on his face, as if he had seen his daughter running out of the room.

Liu De is usually too busy to communicate with his daughter, but this situation has changed a lot in the past few weeks.

His daughter likes comics, and his wife recommended "Detective Conan" to him. This comic is easy and interesting. Although it is a detective comic, it has no bloody scenes. Liu De and his daughter like it very much. He discusses the plot with his daughter every week. The relationship has been shortened a lot.

But today is very strange, the daughter has not come out.

"What's wrong with Tiantian?"

Liu De asked his wife who was cooking.

"She's playing with the computer in the study, you'll know when you go over and have a look." The wife smiled.

Liu De picked up "Weekly Youth" and walked into the study room. As soon as he opened the door, he saw his pink baby daughter wearing a headset, yelling at the computer: "Bad guys, bad guys, you are all bad guys!"

He was nervous, did someone bully his daughter?

Rushing to his daughter's side in a hurry, Liu De picked her up and unplugged the headset cord. Suddenly, the sound of a fierce quarrel came out.

"Did you hear that, you boys are making other children anxious!"

"You guys are unreasonable, facts are facts, how could the author of "Detective Conan" be alone!"

"Who is being unreasonable? You boys who talk like words are obviously jealous of He Xi's talent!"

"Hey, don't substitute all the boys, I still trust the author."

The voices of a group of people were noisy and chaotic, Liu De hastily pressed the mute button.

He took off the headset for his daughter: "What happened?"

"Father!" The little girl pouted, indignantly: "They said Brother He Xi is a liar, and "Detective Conan" is a cartoon drawn by three people!"

Liu De almost burst out laughing. The family has their own love for "Detective Conan". He and his wife both like the male and female protagonists, but the young daughter is fascinated by the author like a star chasing star: "Sweet, why do they say there are three an author?"

The girl raised her eyebrows and pointed to the computer: "Look."

Liu De looked at the computer, besides a yy voice chat room, there was also an open web page on the screen. The above is Huaxia News Network, a red headline is very eye-catching.

The Savior of Original Comics—Or a Fake Hoax? "

Liu De turned on the news and looked over curiously.

"A boy who has never won an award, never published short comics, and came out of nowhere has launched a new serial, and has achieved a sales miracle for five consecutive weeks, do you believe it?"

"The social content shown in this comic is very rich, and even experienced old scholars find it difficult to find the loopholes in it..."

"After expert review, the author of the boy's picture in the first chapter must be a Chinese painter..."

"...Is there anyone in the Huaxia Detective Association who can draw comics? As far as I know, there is none..."

"In the end, the editor believes that the authors of "Detective Conan" should be three people. This comic is actually a huge scam carefully prepared by the Phoenix Company..."

This is a piece of news that looks rigorous but is actually full of malicious speculation. The news editor intentionally misleads readers, writes his conjecture clearly and logically, and draws a conclusion that is easy to believe-the authors of "Detective Conan" are three people, a Chinese painter, a professional cartoonist, and a writer of detective stories. author!

Liu De shook his head, he did not believe that Phoenix Company would do such a thing.

But he was surprised at the same time, there were 100,000 replies to this news, and more than 5,000 reposts—this is unimaginable, you want to say that this news is good? Other news content is not bad at all, why does it have so many replies?

To explore the reason, we can only think from the comic itself.

"Detective Conan" is hot, and it's hotter than anyone imagined. The manga has cultivated a large readership in just a few weeks, and only then can a story like this cause a stir.

Liu De seems to smell the breath of a storm. This news is like an introduction. When the media people notice its astonishing amount of replies, more news will spring up like mushrooms after rain—and let the young author...

"Become famous in one fell swoop, the world knows!"

Liu De sighed, as the saying goes, you should be famous early, what an enviable thing it is to be famous at a young age!
