300,000 copies? Complete the reprint within a week?
If the requirement for reprinting is based on a 50% sales rate, then 150,000 copies must be sold within a week, which is not easy for the "Hire of Go", which only publishes a single book.
Shen Xin is the "Newcomer King", but the comic festival has been held for 16 times, indicating that there have been 16 cartoonists who have won the Newcomer Award, but these cartoonists have rarely become pillars like Wang Yunze.
What's more, "icfuture" is not the magazine that Shen Xin became famous, that is to say, he wants to gather popularity in "icfuture" again.
It's not that Shen Xin is not strong, Shen Xin also needs time.
300,000 copies a week, for Shen Xin, it is not easy to do. Especially, the current sluggish performance of "Hire of Go" is even more worrying.
If one step is too big to achieve the desired results, the top leadership will definitely be held accountable. After that, it will not be easy to get more than 300,000 copies of "Soul of the Game".
"President Shang, I suggest... No, is it too much?" Wang Wenhong was a little entangled.
These words were originally spoken by other editors in charge, but now...at least at this moment, before finding the reason for the decline in "Soul of Goss", Wang Wenhong still dare not go too aggressively.
"What do you think? As the editor in charge of "Soul of Go", why don't you even have this confidence? 300,000 copies...not many."
There are not many books of God tm, and some single-volume comics may not sell 300,000 copies until they are out of print.
The editor in the editorial department has a black line.
"Of course I have confidence." Wang Wenhong also went out, bit the bullet and said, "Isn't it only 300,000 copies?"
Other editors looked at Wang Wenhong in surprise, dare you really say this sentence?
"That's terrible?" Shang Haozhi glared at Wang Wenhong. "Now there are still two weeks before the first volume of the booklet goes on sale... Two weeks can change a lot of things. Wang Wenhong, can "God of Chess" rush up? Look at this time."
"Huh?" Wang Wenhong didn't quite understand.
Shang Haozhi said angrily: "You don't think that in recent years, China Go will only lose this time? I tell you clearly, it is impossible, and will lose many times in the future. Is it every time you lose a Go champion, "The Soul of Chess" "Does the ranking have a big ups and downs? We are not playing a roller coaster.
"The plot of "Soul of Chess" is okay, and "Soul of Chess" cannot be allowed to'pay the bill' for the player's loss. This time, in any case, "Soul of Chess" must be released. It will not fall too much.
"You don't have to worry about the pamphlet. The sales department is in charge of the sales of "Soul of Goss". When I came back, they were in contact with major bookstores in China to try their best to strive for the support of the bookstores. You asked Mr. Shen to draw two promotional color pages. This paragraph Within time, don't tell Teacher Shen about the results of "Soul of the Chess", lest he worry about it."
"I know." Wang Wenhong nodded.
When other editors heard this, they also eased a little bit.
Hook leaned back in his chair and glanced at the screen in front of him, finally relaxing in his heart.
"By the way, "mangafly" has just introduced a comic from the 11th district called "Slam Dunk". The author is Wang Yuchuanyao, a newcomer from the 11th district last year. I definitely have no strength. Not long ago, I met Mr. Qiu Gongyu. Sir, he said that Yuan Zhe originally wanted to introduce the author's upper comic, and he was still busy in District 11 during the New Year. However, at that time, the comic was just over. The editor of "leap" recommended this one.
"Yu Chuan's upper manga is called "Sledding Master", which is also a niche sports manga, but he won the rookie award by relying on that manga. There is no doubt about his strength, one word-strong. Of course, Mr. Shen and Yu Chuan have no competition. Relationship, but there is competition between our magazine and "mangafly". Therefore, everyone should pay attention to this comic and don't be overshadowed by "Slam Dunk"."
Shang Haozhi threw the magazine under his arm to Jia Hui, "You take time to read it."
Wang Wenhong sat down slowly. Although Shang Haozhi said that the Propaganda Department would be responsible for the sales of "Hire of Go", he still had some worries in his heart. Even with the help of the sales department, it would not be easy to accomplish this.
After get off work, Wang Wenhong went to Jiman first, bought a copy of "Mangafly", and watched "Slam Dunk" on the way to Shen Xin's studio.
The first chapter of the comic is mostly to explain the background, and this step is also true.
The protagonist studied abroad in the United States when he was young. In middle school, with his friends, he won the championship of the National Junior High School Basketball Competition. After entering high school, the protagonist and his friends parted ways. Other students entered the same high school, with the goal of dominating the country and completing the high school three consecutive championships. The protagonist came to the famous basketball school in the next county because of his mother's work.
Because it is a famous basketball school, the teammates have doubts about the protagonist's strength, so the protagonist proposes to go head-to-head with the leading star in the team, and then hangs the opponent.
After reading the first episode, Wang Wenhong's first feeling is "fast" and "cool"!
This kind of "fast" refers specifically to "rhythm"; "shuang" refers to the reader's mood after reading this sentence.
In the first episode, Tamagawa Haruka not only fully introduced the background of the protagonist, but more importantly, in the first episode, the protagonist publicly "executed" the star, which immediately aroused the atmosphere of the comic.
Wang Wenhong immediately had a sense of expectation for the "slam dunk".
Few domestic cartoonists dare to use such a fast pace. If they are insufficient, they will be weak in the later stage, and the subsequent plot will easily collapse.
Considering that Haruka Tamagawa is the rookie king of District 11, and the upper part is also a sports-related manga, overall, the control of this manga should not be bad.
"Soul of the Game" is still stable, and there is no big climax. Compared with "Slam Dunk", the rhythm is indeed a bit slow. It is no wonder that some people say that "Soul of the Game" is not "burning" enough.
Wang Wenhong was very thoughtful and knocked on the studio door.
"Is Teacher Shen here?"
"Upstairs~www.mtlnovel.com~ Ma Ning closed the door and pointed to the second floor.
Wang Wenhong and Gao Hang greeted him, and then went upstairs. At a glance, he saw Shen Xin lying on the table and painting, sprinkling manuscript paper on the floor.
He quietly walked over and picked up the a4 paper on the ground, which was filled with the characters of "Soul of Go". In addition, there were a lot of backgrounds, including school, dojo, chess club...
Wang Wenhong picked up the paper and arranged it. Before he could stand up, he suddenly heard a "bang". Hundreds of pages of paper were scattered on the ground. He could only pick up the paper again.
Page by page, each page is filled with characters and backgrounds.
The g pen stretched into the ink bottle, and the tip of the pen touched the bottom of the bottle, making a crisp sound.
Wang Wenhong quickly picked up the waste manuscript paper, took out a bottle of ink from the cabinet by the wall, and put it on Shen Xin's workbench.
Shen Xin was about to dip in ink when he suddenly noticed that an ink bottle had been added. Then he raised his head and saw Wang Wenhong standing in front of him.
"When did you come?"
"Just here. Teacher Shen, pay attention to your body."
Shen Xin nodded, his gaze fell on Wang Wenhong's face, "Thank you... Seeing you are a little anxious, what's the matter?"
"Uh...Yes. Do you know this issue of the magazine?" Wang Wenhong took out "mangafly".
"Oh, I've read it. There is a cartoon in it called "Slam Dunk", which is a bit interesting." Shen Xin twisted his neck, stretched his muscles and bones, with a chuckle on his face.
