My Cartoonist Guide

Chapter 140: Phase 1, the end

   After the new books of "Crime" and "Y\'s" were released, the total sales of the two comics rose alternately, quickly climbing to the sixth and seventh places on the rookie list.

Just when everyone thought that these would be two comics, in the final ranking before July, "NewWorld" announced the holding of the "Y\'s" fan contest, and then pushed "Y\'s" to everyone's In view.

   Some readers who usually only watch 18X fans, saw their favorite big hands participate in the "Y\'s" contest, and then noticed "Y\'s". Some game enthusiasts also learned about the existence of "Y\'s" from the game website.

   But a series of operations did not significantly increase the sales of "Y\'s", and the weekly sales only increased between 50,000 and 100,000.

   Shen Xin was also a little anxious at first. The magazine agency spent so much money. If the results are not effective, then future publicity will surely be affected.

   Of course, if you think about it carefully, it’s not difficult to know the reason. After all, the single-issue sales of "Y\'s" have reached a bottleneck. Readers who want to buy "Y\'s" have already bought it, and readers who don't want to buy will not consider "Y\'s".

   This is like an online novel. If the website gives a few consecutive recommendations for a novel, the increase in the collection is likely to decrease, for the same reason.

   What's more, the fan contest has not officially started yet. The advertisements can only attract everyone's attention, but they can't make them willing to spend real money and buy a single book.

   At the same time, another news brought by Yan Fei made him a little relieved.

Although the sales of "Y\'s" did not increase on a large scale, but after a struggle, the sales surpassed "The Punishment" and ranked sixth. At the same time, the gap with the fifth place was also 50,000 copies. Within the top five, it is only a matter of time.

   The biggest role of the fan competition is to drive the sales of "NewWorld". The latest issue reached 900,000 copies, which is the peak of magazine sales in recent years.

   "Y\'s" has also attracted the attention of new readers. In the new questionnaire survey, "Y\'s" has 50 more votes than before, reaching an exaggerated 672. And the eight big players who are about to participate in the doujin contest have even more beautiful words about "Y\'s", which arouses everyone's curiosity about the comics.

   This report was not only published on "NewWorld", but also appeared on the homepage of Manjia.com.

   Some readers who are hesitant about "Y\'s", after reading this article, are once again entangled in whether they should also buy a few copies of "Y\'s".

So far, if there are no accidents, Shen Xin's minimum goal is achieved-to enter the top ten of the rookie list, and the sales volume of comics is only 300,000 copies short of the number one. This is not unattainable. digital.

   After Zhou Yang painted the doujin name of "Y\'s" again, he bid farewell to the others in the studio, and at the same time began the creation of "Ghost Power".

   The entire studio was immediately busy a lot, and Shen Xin had to spend more energy on drawing line drafts and backgrounds, while Gao Hang and Lu Ning also started their comrades creation after work.

   Winning the champion of the doujin contest, there is only a reward of 50,000 yuan, and evenly divided, it will be a little more than 10,000 per person, which is not even comparable to the reward of the "Y\'s" booklet.

   The goal of the three people is not just money, but more importantly, experience and proof.

   As the lead writer of the doujin, Lu Ning has the most workload, and the biggest difficulty she faces is the use of the G pen.

   In her previous creations, she used ball pens more often.

  The round pen and the G pen are both dip pens, but they are completely different in nature. The two sides of the ink storage hole of the G pen are hollowed out, so the nib is very flexible. If you don’t pay attention, the nib will diverge like two sides. Sometimes in order to draw the ideal effect, you often need to move the paper. .

   The tip of the round pen is relatively slender and the lines are very soft, but when it is necessary to show the emotional explosion of the character, the effect is often unsatisfactory.

   "Or, would you choose a round pen?" Shen Xin suggested.

   Compared to other dip pens, the G pen is indeed more difficult to use.

   "No. I want to be a young cartoonist, so I must know how to use the G pen." Lu Ning bit her lip with a stubborn expression.

   Shen Xin thought for a while, and felt that what Lu Ning said was not wrong. This opportunity was at best an attempt.

   If he encounters a little difficulty, he thinks of shrinking, Lu Ning will not be able to do much in the future.

   Shen Xin wanted to give Lu Ning some pointers when necessary, but the new show of "Hunting Abyss" instantly made the studio nervous.

   On June 22, the third volume of "Hunting Abyss" was released. The single-day sales exceeded 120,000 copies and the single-week sales exceeded 600,000 copies, which subsequently drove the sales of the first and second volumes.

In the middle of the night of June 30, the final sales volume of "Hunting Abyss" reached 1.8 million copies, only 200,000 copies less than "Y\'s" and 180,000 copies less than "Crime", ranking it in " After "Criminal Punishment", he ranked eighth.

   "Hoo... scared me to death."

   Jian Xiaomei finally took a sigh of relief when he saw that Manjia.com updated the latest rankings and pages.

   Ye Hexu’s mind was not on the rankings at all. He watched the animation once, and then returned his energy to the original manuscript.

   Jian Xiaomei came to Ye Hexu's anger, took off his earphones, and yelled at him: "Can't you just be nervous?"

   "Huh? Nervous? What are you nervous about?" Ye Hexu looked at Jian Xiaomei in confusion.

   "Ranking... You were almost eliminated, do you know?" Jian Xiao said angrily.

   "Oh, you said this." Ye Hexu put down the G pen~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and yawned, "Even if I get nervous, can I change the result?"

   "Huh?" Jian Xiao frowned, and then said hesitantly, "Should... can't it?"

"That's right, if I can't, why am I still nervous? Don't worry, I am the one who wants to win the'Newcomer Award', and it is impossible to fall in this place. Moreover, there will be a new blessing. In the next three months, "Hunting "The Abyss" will win the first place." Ye Hexu said with a smile.

"The Punishment" can't be underestimated. It will also be broadcast in July, August, and September. Although it is only the Q version of instant noodles, it can be broadcast two episodes a week, and the frequency is higher than that of "Hunting Abyss"." Jian Xiaomei Speculated.

   "I guess...before the fourth volume of "The Punishment" is released, the sales will not increase much." Ye Hexu speculated.

   "Why?"

   "The increase in the follow-up sales of "Crimination" has slowed down significantly, gradually being pulled away by "Y\'s"."

   "That's because "Y\'s" promoted the fan competition."

   "However, the "Punishment" was exceeded before the doujin match officially started." Ye Hexu reminded.

   "Yes. Then why does this happen?" Jian Xiaomei puzzled.

   "I guess...maybe the readers of Punishment have been diluted, and some readers have chosen novels."

   Jian Xiaomei immediately understood.

   Among the readers of "The Punishment", some of them originally came from Su Han's fans. After the publication of the novel of "The Punishment", this group of readers will choose the novel, which causes the diversion of readers.

   "Of course, these are just my guesses. But one thing is certain, starting from tomorrow, every list of the comic festival will become very interesting." Ye Hexu chuckled lightly, his eyes full of expectation.
