Due to the "Zhen Xi Incident", after the Spring Festival, "The Soul of the Game" in "icfuture"'s first little book, dropped by two places, fell to 6th, but in "Young Leap", it rose instead. One, came fifth.
Shang Haozhi was a little surprised at first seeing this result. Also affected by the "Zhen Xi Incident", why is the ranking of "Hire of Chess" in "Shoun Leap" higher than "icfuture"?
Later, Shang Haozhi learned the reason from Yokoi's mouth.
After this incident, some chess players in the 11th area also paid attention to "Soul of the Game". After reading it, they gave a good evaluation of "Soul of the Game".
Readers heard the explanations of the chess players, and their doubts about "Go" were mostly reduced. At the same time, some people who did not know "Soul of Go" also learned about "Soul of Go" through this incident.
Hearing the explanation, Shang Haozhi stared at him, and couldn't help it.
Huaxia is a human society, and chess players are connected to each other. Although Zhen Xi is a child, Zhen Xi's father is the first person in China to go. If possible, they don't want to easily provoke Zhen Duo.
Furthermore, in Go, there are often scenes of playing on the top of the gram.
As long as you have the strength, you can even beat the 9th dan in the early stage.
They now support "Soul of the Game", and once they are defeated by Zhen Xi, they will really lose them.
Face is also important for what you want to eat in China.
Therefore, although some chess players disagree with Zhen Xi's words, they will not say it directly.
It's not afraid, it's not worth it.
As for Zhen Duo, life is not easy either.
After Zhen Xi came back, she stopped talking to him, and his wife complained to him.
A week later, Zhen Xi moved out of the house and found a house near the chess courtyard. Zhen Duo knew that Zhen Xi needed to calm down, so he agreed to his request.
For this reason, his wife and Zhen Duo had an argument for a long time and almost filed for divorce.
Under this circumstance, Chess Academy can't speak out, after all, this is related to the happiness of the family.
The popularity of "Soul of the Game" in China has been sluggish for half a month.
It wasn't until the last issue of the magazine in February that "Gossip" recovered some popularity and returned to the fifth place.
Shen Xin didn't have much to do with this kind of unwarranted disaster. Life is not as good as it should be. Even for him, it is impossible for him to go smoothly.
In this situation, the fourth volume of "The Soul of the Game" was released. In District 11, "Shounen Leap" even released a four-volume pamphlet at one go. However, considering the experience of introducing comics in the past, the first edition of each pamphlet is only 50,000 copies.
On March 1, the fourth volume of "The Soul of the Game" was officially released.
In China, 70,000 copies were sold on the first day, while in District 11, more than half of them were sold on the first day.
The sales department immediately notified the editorial department of the first day's sales volume and contacted the printing factory at the same time.
"God of the Game" was printed twice in a row in a week, and the situation was stabilized.
In China, under the influence of Zhen Xi, the weekly sales volume of volume 4 was 380,000 copies, while the sales volume of 11 districts and four in a single week was approaching 800,000 copies.
When Murakami saw the report brought by the sales department, he was happy. At the same time, he also began to think about the animation of "God of Go".
Judging from the current trend, there is no need to wait until the end of March, and now you can contact animation manufacturers to make animations.
Therefore, Murakami also released the news of animation production. He wanted to see which animation companies were interested in "Hire of Go" and then choose the best.
Animation companies are also very concerned about a popular animation such as "Soul of Go", but the copyright of "Soul of Go" is in the hands of "icfuture". If they want to get the production rights, they must deal with "icfuture".
However, there are still a large number of animation companies in China, and these companies must also be eyeing "Hire of Go".
Subsequently, news came out from "Shoun Leap" that the animation of "Hire of the Game" was co-produced by Huaxia and companies in District 11. The animation company in District 11 owns the animation market in District 11.
The release of this news attracted the attention of many animation companies, and soon there was a plan that was submitted to Murakami's desk.
It is of course a good thing that an animation company is willing to take over "Soul of Go", but Murakami is not satisfied with these companies.
"Icfuture" found Longyao Animation Company. Companies in District 11 should have such strength.
Seeing that it was about to the end of March, Murakami still did not see the animation company he liked, and was a little frustrated, and he was ready to pick the most reliable company from the submitted plans.
At this moment, a newly sent business plan was placed on Murakami's desk.
Murakami, who had just gone to work, saw the plan on the table, his eyes lighted up, put down the briefcase, picked up the plan at hand, and quickly browsed through it.
"Yokoi..."
"Huh?" Yokoi turned his head suspiciously.
"Bring all the materials related to "The Soul of the Game" and go out with me."
"Ah? Oh." Yokoi immediately put the prepared materials into the briefcase, and followed Murakami out of the editorial department, "Editor-in-Chief, where are we going."
"Orochi." Murakami asked rhetorically.
"Orochi?" Yokoi asked in surprise.
Orochi, also known as Orochi, is a legendary monster in District 11. In some games or animations, it appears mostly as a villain.
But in the animation industry, this company is not synonymous with villains. On the contrary, it is a very basic animation company. The animations produced are of high quality and the sales of DVDs and bd are also very high.
The only shortcoming of this company is that it produces too few works every year, so its reputation and strength are not directly proportional. However, even so, it is still the top five production company in Tokyo~www.mtlnovel.com~ If you can negotiate a good condition with orochi, "icfuture" should not say much.
Yokoi took a deep breath, and Orochi and Long Yao co-produced... What level of the animated version of "God of Go" should be?
The addition of orochi has completely lost the opportunity for other animation companies.
After a whole day of negotiations, Orochi and Murakami reached an agreement on the business in District 11, and the next step was to go to China to negotiate with "icfuture".
Shang Haozhi contacted Bao Jiyi as soon as he heard Yokoi's report.
"Huh? Orochi? Come next week?" Bao Jiyi was a little surprised.
"Yeah. Dong Bao...Is there a problem with Long Yao?" Shang Haozhi said patiently.
"Long Yao? There should be no problem, right? Let me ask first." Bao Jiyi said quickly.
Shang Haozhi sneered in his heart. As expected, Bao Jiyi hadn't contacted Long Yao yet.
Bao Jiyi immediately contacted Long Yao's general manager, but Long Yao's general manager tactfully refused.
"This is "Soul of the Game", and it is still a collaboration with Orochi. It should be very popular when it is produced." Bao Jiyi said seriously.
"Bao Dong, we also want to do "Gossip", but the company has problems with its capital turnover. In a short period of time, there is not much capital investment." General Manager Long Yao's tone was full of helplessness.
