Gao Hang holds the D pen, resists the restlessness in his heart, and tries to draw the background with the usual heart. however...
He really can't do it.
Today is the launch day of "Y\'s". Previously, the magazine had invested heavily in recording radio dramas, and made a lot of publicity in Hongchuan, which has the strongest cartoon atmosphere in the country. Even in the first two days, Manjia The interviews with four major voice actors and light novelists "Lonely Watching the Rain" have been uploaded on the Internet, which is full of momentum.
However, the amount of honor one has, the amount of pressure it has to bear.
Before "Y\'s", it was just a little trouble, secretly growing in the sea of clouds. And this time, "Y\'s" is really going to the domestic market.
In order to attract domestic readers, magazine even gave up Yunhai's book signing event.
Such a large-scale publicity, if only a dozen or two hundred thousand copies can be sold, the "Y\'s" brand will really be smashed.
Gao Hang became Shen Xin's assistant during the toughest time of "Y\'s" and spent that unforgettable time with Shen Xin. He hoped from the heart that "Y\'s" would be a big hit. But the more I cared, the more nervous I was, and the D pen in my hand became less obedient.
He took a deep breath, put down the D pen, got up to a cup of hot water. When I put the teacup on the table, I almost spilled water on the workbench.
"Don't put the cup on the table, what should I do if the artwork gets dirty?" Lu Ning, who was sitting across from Gao Hang, gave him a dissatisfied look.
"I'm sorry, I forgot." Gao Hang rubbed his hands on his pants again, but didn't mean to pick up the cup.
"Ms. Gao looks very nervous." Zhou Yang puzzled.
"Can you not be nervous? Don't forget, "Crime" is also released today. If the release date is staggered, it will be fine. Now it may be compared." Gao Hang said uneasy, "Once the gap is too big, "Y\" 's" and Teacher Shen will definitely become the target of public criticism."
Gao Hang shook his head again and again, no one can bear the pressure.
"Teacher Gao, you can't do this. Girls don't like boys who are not confident." Zhou Yang said.
"Huh? Really?"
Hearing Zhou Yang say this, Gao Hang's heart was tense.
Although he knows that Zhou Yang is a real boy, every time he sees Zhou Yang, he will treat Zhou Yang as a girl.
He didn't believe that he would be bent, but Zhou Yang was sitting next to him, and he would be affected more or less.
When Zhou Yang said this, he subconsciously thought that this was the girl's true thoughts.
"Is that right? If you don't believe me, ask Sister Lu if she likes Teacher Shen more." Zhou Yang whispered.
"what?"
Gao Hang was taken aback, and the next moment he really looked at Lu Ning.
"Smelly boy, are you going to die?" Lu Ning's cheeks were reddish, and she glared at Zhou Yang, and murmured, "I want to know what the girl thinks, and I will tell my sister. I will buy you some women's clothing."
Zhou Yang shook his head again and again, joking, there are still too many women's clothing at home? Resolutely can't accept it anymore.
"The three of you...If you really can't calm down, go back first?" Shen Xin, who had been lowering his head to paint, suddenly raised his head and looked at the three assistants.
"Huh? Teacher Shen, aren't you nervous?" Gao Hang was surprised.
"How can you not be nervous?"
Shen Xin took out a paper towel, wiped his hands, and glanced at the wastebasket. Today, the manuscript paper alone was a waste of several pages. When the ink line is inked, some of the pen ends, which may inadvertently leave extra lines.
This is impossible in normal times.
"But we have all tried our best. Even if the results are not ideal, we have tried our best." Shen Xin wanted to be as relaxed as possible, but deep in her heart, she also felt a kind of fatigue.
During this period of time, he has done his best, and the rest can only depend on the market's reaction.
If Shen Xin's studio is in a quietness that implies anxiety, then "NewWorld" magazine is another scene.
A large number of calls were made to the editorial department to order the signed version of the third volume of "Y\'s", but the editorial department is not responsible for the sales of comics. Moreover, the magazine has also posted an announcement on the official Weibo and Manjia website, the signed version The comics can only be purchased on the official website.
Despite this, many readers still call the editorial department.
"Hey, is it "NewWorld" magazine?"
Li Jiming just got on the phone and asked directly for convenience.
If it is normal, Li Jiming will definitely answer "yes".
For ordinary readers, the editorial department is a bridge between readers and works. Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary readers, the editorial department is equivalent to a magazine.
But today is different. The reason why many readers call is not for the cartoonist or the work itself, but for the purchase of books.
"That... this is the editorial department, if you want to buy a book..."
"Yes, I just want to buy a book, the third volume of the book signed by Mr. Shen. Do you want to mail the money to you?"
The other party interrupted Li Jiming and asked directly.
"This gentleman, please go to the official website of "NewWorld" to buy. We don't sell comics here." Li Jiming said patiently.
"If you don't sell comics, what kind of magazine do you do? It's closed down."
Before Li Jiming explained, the other party directly hung up the phone.
"..."
Li Jiming has an urge to curse people. He said that this is the editorial department, and he is not responsible for selling books. He even called here. It was really annoying.
Xiaoli saw Li Jiming, who was angry but didn't show off, she didn't feel gloating, but empathized. Li Jiming was not the only person receiving this kind of treatment.
There are only two people in the entire editorial department who can remain calm. One is Yan Fei. Whenever she receives a call, she patiently tells each other how to buy "Y\'s"; the other is the editor-in-chief, who tells readers He doesn't care about the problem, he only cares about one problem, how much the total sales of "Y\'s" will be.
Due to the many "harassment calls" made, the progress of the editorial department has slowed down a lot.
The deputy editor walked into the magazine and sent the reader questionnaire to the editor's hands~www.mtlnovel.com~ Actually, the editors have already guessed the ranking. The first place must be "Y\'s". It hasn't been changed for several months; the second place is changed back and forth, but only the two or three comics.
New authors and new comics rarely appear again.
"Ms. Zhou Yang's short comic "Ghost Frontier" ranked first in the short comics list. Xiaoli, Mr. Zhou's results are very good, we must continue to work hard." Deputy editor said to Xiaoli.
"Well, I will tell him." Xiaoli nodded quickly.
"When is the next short story?" the deputy editor-in-chief asked.
"After he finishes drawing the name, he has to give it to Mr. Shen to comment and then make changes, so the progress will be slower. In April, Mr. Shen was busy again, so the next short story may be delayed for a while. "Xiao Li explained.
The deputy editor-in-chief nodded slightly, then turned his head and asked the editor-in-chief, "Brother Zhang, what's going on with "Y\'s"?"
"I don't know, I'm still waiting for news from the sales department." The editor-in-chief shook his head.
Yan Fei uneasyly fingered her fingers, a little anxious in her heart.
"Sister Yan, "Y\'s" has only been on sale for two hours, don't be too anxious." Xiaoli comforted.
Yan Fei nodded her head lightly, and said nothing.
At that moment, the zombie face quickly walked into the editorial department, "Editor-in-Chief, all 2000 signed comics have been sold. Other data for today will not be available until tomorrow morning."
Yan Fei heard these words, her heart beating faster.
'S official website only started selling autographed comics at 10 o'clock, and now it's only 11:30. It sold two thousand copies in one and a half hours. This speed is not unpleasant.
Yan Fei suddenly had confidence in the sales of "Y\'s".
