Big Manga

Chapter 103 :country

Behind the high-rise glass wall of the building, the editor-in-chief of Longteng’s novels and publishing director looked at the sales plaza below the building where a large number of readers gathered.

They looked at each other for a moment, and smiled at each other.

The publishing supervisor said: “Congratulations, editor-in-chief, the sales volume of “Wukong Biography” is so good, the lowest is at the top of the immortal level, and it may even reach the level of the little god, your vision is correct, and the next performance evaluation will not worry about it. Up.”

The so-called Shangxian and Xiaoshen are among Long Teng’s internal calling for some best-selling novelists, and they actually represent the novelists ranked third and fourth in China.

Li Ming, the editor-in-chief of novels, smiled and said: “I have higher expectations for “The Story of Wukong” than you, so let’s wait for the results of the early report to come out. Now it’s useless to say anything.”

But not long after he finished speaking, an editor hurried over with a quick report.

“The editor-in-chief, the editor-in-chief, the quick report is out.”

The editor handed the newsletter to Li Ming, wiped his sweat, his face still filled with unstoppable excitement.

“The first day sales exceeded 770,000 copies, and the final sales are expected to exceed 8.5 million!”

Final sales of 8.5 million copies! This sales volume will undoubtedly be a blockbuster in the comics industry, but in the novel industry where competition is fierce and talented, it is not particularly powerful.

“Look at it, I guess it’s accurate!” The main publishing pipeline: “Up to the level of immortality, if the follow-up advertising and promotion are carried out well, there is hope of becoming a little god, as for the higher…then it is gone.”

“It’s a pity that I didn’t enter the third-line ladder.”

He shook his head and sighed: “If you enter the third line and reach the level of a small god, the company will pay more attention to you as the editor-in-chief.”

China’s novel world is a pyramid-like structure. The three classes at the top are honored as gods. Each novelist of this class has the performance of leading the survival of small companies. Longteng has 80% of the resources. It’s all on these god-level novelists.

If Li Ming unearthed a god-level writer, this year’s prize money would be five or six hundred thousand.

“Pity……”

The publishing director sighed again, if he was a little god, he would also have a big reward.

“What a pity?” After reading the quick report, Li Ming smiled and said, “He Xi has not reached the level of the little god?”

The publishing director was taken aback: “How do you say this?”

“You forgot that “The Legend of Wukong” has been released.”

Li Ming said with a smile: “Readers can watch it online for free, so naturally there is no need to buy it. It’s normal for the sales of physical books to be affected, and this is the first work of He Xi.”

Every well-known novelist has to go through the accumulation of fame. The first work has the least sales. Longteng evaluates the novelist’s potential based on the book’s content and sales. As long as he is determined to have real talents, the first comprehensive evaluation will be Two classes higher than sales.

“This early report predicts 8.5 million, and the level of Shangxian will be increased by two levels. What a shame that the evaluation of potential is Zhongshen. However, the exposure of “The Legend of Wukong” has affected sales, so it has to be increased by one level until the next company meeting. It will definitely be the evaluation of the great god!”

Li Ming was a little excited.

He Xi is a professional cartoonist who has caused the miracle of cartoons. Now no one doubts that he will be a short-lived man. He is really talented and has excellent market performance. Longteng will treat him as a key observation object.

“Yes, I forgot, this is his first novel.”

The publishing director patted his head: “The first novel has this sales volume, it is indeed a great potential! Haha, both of us have hope for this year’s bonus!”

He showed a look of expectation.

Li Ming nodded: “The bonus is okay, but He Xi didn’t agree to change to a career as a novelist. The bonus is only half at most.”

When he said this, the supervisor was full of regret: “Oh, how can a good novel genius paint? How hard is that stuff!”

Compared with comics and novels, it is hard work and less money. Moreover, the sales market and channels of comics are far worse than those of novels. China has five regions in addition to the Central Plains Jiangnan, with a population of more than 3 billion, and the world dominates, with a sales volume of 10 million copies. His novels are at the third-tier level, and the single comic book sales of 10 million copies is unique! !

“Do you think He Xi will leave the comics world?”

the supervisor asked with expectation.

“I don’t know this, but…” Li Ming frowned, “Manga has been developed for more than ten years, and the first batch of people with higher education will come out. These people have very high drawing skills and will bring them to the comics industry. Come a revolution.”

“Higher Manga Education.”

The supervisor was taken aback for a moment, and then complained: “Are you talking about the comic associations run by capitalists and painters? I remember that Ninghai’s reservation as a comic education center was snatched by Yanjing, and this year they also formed a comic book. the company.”

“Yes, it’s not just Yenching.”

Li Ming nodded: “Far East, Far East, Taiwan Strait, India, Tibet, China, there is a comic education center in the five regions, the first batch of students are ready to come out, the comics and animation industry will usher in a reshuffle.”

He sighed slightly, and suddenly thought of the last conversation with Meng Huo. The child had wonderful illusions about the future of the comics industry, but those ideas may have been seen by the capitalists a few years ago, and they began to work silently.

If it weren’t for the emergence of He Xiyi’s army, Li Ming would really not be aware that Huaxia decided to carry out higher comic education a few years ago. There is only one school place in each area. At that time, it was strange Now I think about it. It is the malice to divide the market.

Central Plains and Jiangnan belong to the hinterland of China. The comic market in this area is regarded as a garden by the Yanjing Comic Association, so what a pity it is in this garden.

“Come on, boy.”

Why is Li Ming reluctant to cheer in his heart? Everything in the cultural industry depends on strength. It is actually difficult for Phoenix Company to defeat a group of cartoonists who have gone out of society. But no matter what Phoenix Company is like, Li Ming believes He Xi will not be Defeated.

He is a genius of original comics. Those who have been trained through higher education are only those who can draw comics. What a pity is indispensable for the development and development of the comic market. Capitalists who want to make money will never hurt him.

The results may go in two directions, one is He Xi quitting, or Phoenix Company joins the Comic Association, and the other is Phoenix Company accepting more cartoonists and forming a more powerful company centered on He Xi.

But for Li Ming, he prefers a third ending…

The capitalists attacked He Xi, which made him turn into the novel industry.

However, this possibility is the smallest. Now that the war has disappeared, China Science and Technology has entered a bottleneck, and the world is in a dormant period of development. It will take hundreds of years for mankind to open the path of the star realm. In this process, material life will quickly become saturated. In order to satisfy the social emptiness that humanity is about to usher in, entertainment and culture will become a pillar industry.

The existence of He Xi will soon attract attention at the national level, as a potential godfather candidate for a cultural category with great potential…

He will be protected by the state.
