Rebirth of the God of Comics

Back to the day before, Chen Ze revealed on the Internet that he would start the web serial soon, and the news spread throughout the cartoonist industry.

"Slam Dunk" has recently become popular on the Internet, showing unrivaled popularity and the potential of national-level comics. This kind of masterpiece can only be compared with the old gods of Lotte Club, and can stabilize Chen Ze's head Yes, only Li Mingyang, the number one manga master in China.

Such a masterpiece naturally attracted the attention of the industry. The editors of many small comic magazines are looking forward to whether Chen Ze's "Slam Dunk" can create a miracle and break the hegemony of Lotte Club, which has dominated for 20 years.

And when news spread in the industry that the Lotte Club took the lead and wanted to block Chen Ze. The editors of many small magazines feel sorry for Chen Ze. Such a masterpiece is about to fall.

But even though they felt aggrieved for Chen Ze in their hearts, Lotte Club was a giant in the comics circle, and they were unable to fight against him, so at most they could only scold Lotte Club in their hearts and give Chen Ze spiritual support.

So when Chen Ze revealed that he was going to serialize "Slam Dunk" on the Internet, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

"Editor-in-Chief Yang Yicheng, New Animation Magazine is about to launch a new business model - online serialization. What do you think about this business model?"

Ye Ming is a reporter for G City Evening News, and he has heard about "Slam Dunk" in the same city. Although he is not a comic fan, he also knows the terrifying popularity of "Slam Dunk" on the Internet.

Similarly, he also knew a thing or two about the news that Lotte Club blocked "Slam Dunk".

Therefore, when Chen Ze suddenly revealed that he wanted to serialize "Slam Dunk" online, he immediately rushed to the G City branch of Lotte Club to interview the editor-in-chief of the branch to see if there was any topic.

"The online serialization launched by the New Anime Magazine is a new business model. In fact, Lotte Club has already had a business plan for this business model." Yang Yicheng said.

"Then do you think the new anime magazine will be successful this time? As far as I know, their magazine's ace manga "Slam Dunk" was boycotted by your Rakuten club. Your continued online serialization of "Slam Dunk" What do you think?" The reporter then asked.

"I have just emphasized that this kind of business model has actually been evaluated by our magazine. The conclusion is that it has no commercial value. What people like to read comics is the kind of leisure that they can hold a magazine and watch anywhere. Feel.

"Now the New Anime Magazine puts the manga on the screen, which restricts the freedom of the readers, causing them to stay in front of the computer for a long time. This approach is contrary to the habits of the readers, and it is actually not feasible. of."

"I don't know how the editor-in-chief of the new animation magazine would agree to this serialization method. In fact, as long as it is a normal person with many years of experience in the industry, it will not agree to this approach. As far as I know, now the new animation It’s no wonder that the editor-in-chief is a young girl. Young people are prone to making mistakes.”

"As for "Slam Dunk," it should be noted that it's not that we want to block it. It's that its content is not suitable for dissemination among young people. This point has been made very clear by the "Critical Anime" magazine."

"Now the New Anime Magazine insists on going its own way and refuses to listen to our advice. Even after the distributors refused to release "Slam Dunk", they still want to serialize it. This can only prove what I just said. The manager of the New Anime Magazine People are still too young."

As the editor-in-chief of Lotte Club G City Branch, Yang Yicheng,

After receiving the order to block "Slam Dunk" from the BJ city headquarters a few weeks ago, they used the huge resources of Lotte Club to block "Slam Dunk" in all aspects from public opinion to channels. It can be said that the difficulties that Chen Ze and Lin Lan encountered recently were all caused by him.

And Yang Yicheng is just the editor-in-chief of a branch of Lotte Club, and the resources he uses are far from being comparable to those of the head office. But just like this, Chen Ze and the new animation have been pushed into a desperate situation, and they have to rely on the strange trick of serialization on the Internet to make a comeback. The accumulation of Lotte Club in the past 20 years can be seen.

It was only today that Yang Yicheng found out that Chen Ze and New Animation Magazine were going to serialize on the Internet. He had already pushed them into a desperate situation by various means. According to his own estimates, if the new animation magazine does not give up "Slam Dunk", it will definitely go bankrupt due to debt problems within a month. But today I suddenly learned that they are going to be serialized online.

For some reason, when he got the news, Yang Yicheng felt flustered for no reason. He originally wanted to do a good job of blocking "Slam Dunk" this time, so as to establish his qualifications for entering the head office.

But thinking of Chen Ze and his "Slam Dunk", it seems that he has been outside his plan. From the beginning, I once asserted that it has no commercial value, and it turned out to be the fastest-rising comic this year.

I smeared its reputation with water troops on the Internet, but its fans actually united and defeated the water army I hired. Not only has the reputation of the slam dunk not been damaged, but his popularity has risen to a higher level.

Today I pushed it into a desperate situation, but it has to be serialized on the Internet, it won't really bring it back to life again!

"No, I have done research on web serialization before, and it is simply an unfeasible business model." Yang Yicheng thought in his heart.

In fact, he just belittled the commercial behavior of the new animation in front of reporters, which is also a kind of self-consolation and encouragement.

"In a word, serializing comics on the Internet is simply not feasible. This commercial move of new animations only hastened their demise." Yang Yicheng finally made such a conclusion in front of reporters.

Soon, Ye Ming wrote the interview into a manuscript and published it on the G City Evening News that day.

"Genius or Destruction? The editor-in-chief of Lotte Club asserts that the online serialization of Slam Dunk is self-defeating"

One of the three major domestic animation bases in G City, there are countless large and small comic magazines inside. Therefore, this report by the G City Evening News has aroused huge repercussions in the industry. Everyone is staring at the trend of the new animation magazine, wanting to see what will happen to this commercial attempt?

That's why, as soon as Lin Lan got the news that "Slam Dunk" was selling well online, she immediately revealed the result.

She is also a strong person. Yang Yicheng, the editor-in-chief of Lotte Club, laughed at himself in front of the reporter, so he had to use the facts to explain who is the youngest.

"More than half a million people?"

People in the comic circle in G City quickly got the subscription data of "Slam Dunk". When they heard this number, everyone gasped. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly so many.

They thought that although the online popularity of "Slam Dunk" was quite high, it would be enough to have more than a hundred thousand. After all, this is an immature business model.

But I didn't expect the data to be so against the sky. It was more than half a million on the first day, and it is not impossible to break a million. Breaking one million, this is the requirement of a medium-sized magazine.

After being shocked, they gloated again. Didn't Yang Yicheng, the editor-in-chief of Lotte Club, conclude in front of the reporter that the online subscription of "Slam Dunk" will definitely not be successful? Now that the data is out, his face is slapped.

Lotte Society and Yang Yicheng have always been used to being domineering in the comic circle of G City, but now they are being slapped in the face, and many people are secretly applauding behind their backs. At the same time, I also want to see what kind of counterattack Yang Yicheng will have.

In the Lotte Club G City branch building, Yang Yicheng sat in the office with a livid face. On the computer opposite him was the official website of the new animation magazine. On the banner hung a line of big words "Warmly celebrate the first day of Chen Ze's "Slam Dunk" Subscriptions broke 500,000."

"It actually succeeded, how is this possible?" Yang Yicheng thought to himself.

He just received a call from the headquarters, and the headquarters has already learned about the "Slam Dunk" online fire. He was very dissatisfied with Yang Yicheng. The gentleman said that if Yang Yicheng couldn't solve "Slam Dunk", he didn't mind changing the G city branch.

"Damn it!" Thinking of the phone call just now, Yang Yicheng felt annoyed. Originally, after successfully solving "Slam Dunk" this time, he could be transferred to the head office, but now his success fell short.

The group of channel agents are all ungrateful things. I was able to encourage them to block "Slam Dunk" because of the prestige of Lotte Club. Now that they can't beat "Slam Dunk" to death, they will definitely go back and continue to release it, and their plan will be completely bankrupt.

"No, there must be a way to solve it!" Yang Yicheng gritted his teeth and thought with a dark complexion.
