Chapter 9 : Breaking News and Winning

“Hey, Deyun Bookstore…Ah, I know you are out of stock…but I’m really sorry, the magazine is sold out, and we are still rushing for the stock.”

“Sun Yang, don’t stand stupidly, go and ask the publisher why the 100,000 printed copies have not come out yet!”

was on fire, and “Detective Conan” began to be noticed-the speed of the fire was amazingly fast, and it was effective in just one word.

The editorial department of the Phoenix Building is very busy. The new issue of the magazine sold 70% in one day, forcing them to print 100,000 copies to meet the demand that will appear in the next few days. Although there are not many reprints, the magazine “Weekly Youth” has not been reprinted for a year. The increase in sales this time is very gratifying.

“Zhang Xiu, are there any statistics for the quick report?”

“The statistics will be done right away, wait a minute.”

Zhang Xiu was so busy with calculations that she was sweating. Every sold weekly youth magazine has a postcard-style questionnaire on which readers can select favorite works and ratings. The quick report is to manually count the earliest recovered postcards and give a preliminary ranking of the comics in this issue of the magazine.

“I really don’t know what the editor-in-chief thinks. This weekly issue must be the number one in Detective Conan. What statistics are necessary.”

Zhang Xiu complained in her heart, but her men did not dare to stop writing. The flash report must be counted on the second day of the sale date. Generally speaking, it is feedback from readers in Ninghai and surrounding cities. Of course, the early report is only a quick and general conclusion, and the true authority depends on the “Xiaozheng”.

is a comprehensive anatomy of a magazine, and it can only be calculated in the third week of the release date. It collects postcard feedback from readers across the country, uses a computer to make statistics and distinctions, and can calculate detailed information including the average age of readers who watched each comic and the ratio of men to women.

“The quick report statistics are ready!”

After using the computer to calculate the last number, Zhang Xiu stood up and said, “The first place in “Detective Conan” has a 96% vote rate.”

“…”

The audience suddenly fell silent, and the busy editors stopped their movements. Although everyone expected “Detective Conan” to be the number one, no one expected that the vote rate would be so high.

96% of readers gave the first vote to “Detective Conan”, which was a heavy blow to the entire editorial department and other cartoonists, because it was like mocking the other comic works of “Weekly Shonen” for nothing.

Sun Yang was stunned looking at the files in his hand. Teacher Tomato’s new work was published last week. The quick report is not bad, but the vote rate is only 36%. The first episode of “Detective Conan” received 96% of the votes. Is that young man even better than a veteran professional cartoonist with a reader base?

Was his choice wrong and lost a gold ingot for nothing?

“This is a good thing.”

After a long time, Ye Xiong’s calm voice sounded: “It is a good thing for a genius to appear in the original comics industry. Only in this way can more competition and efforts be aroused, and only in this way can the monopoly of Longteng’s novel adaptations be broken.”

He believes that as long as there is a genius in any industry to create a trend, the rest of the people will rise to the wind, and the entire industry can flourish. When other editors came back to think about the same principle, they couldn’t help but admire Ye Xiong: The editor-in-chief is different from ordinary people, and he doesn’t change his face when he encounters this kind of thing. Look at how far-sighted this thinking is!

They didn’t even notice the trembling of Ye Xiong’s thigh hidden by the table. He was also very complicated, but it was more joy. “Detective Conan” had a good start-but you can’t relax, everything must be planned for a long time.

“The editor-in-chief, the chairman let you pass.”

At this time, a notice suddenly reached the editorial department.

…

Meng Huo didn’t know what happened thousands of miles away. Qingcheng County’s “Weekly Youth” will not be released until today. He rushed to the bookstore early in the morning.

However, when he walked to the door, with a “bang”, a girl who was fascinated by reading ran into him.

“I am sorry!”

The girl was wearing a hat and couldn’t see her face clearly. She bowed her head to apologize, her voice was very crisp. Meng Huo waved his hand without mind, and the girl hurried away holding the book.

“Children nowadays read books no matter how they walk.”

Menghuo walked into the bookstore, but he did not see “Weekly Shonen” for sale in the comic magazine section.

“Boss, isn’t Weekly Boy yet here?”

he asked.

“Are you here to buy Weekly Youth?” The bookstore owner glanced at him in surprise: “I’m sorry, the girl just bought the last one. You have to look for it elsewhere.”

This bookstore orders more than a dozen weekly juvenile magazines every week. Why is it so popular today? The boss is very strange.

“Thank you.” Meng Huo had no choice but to find other places, but he searched the county and still couldn’t find the latest issue of Weekly Youth.

A small place is a small place, how can it be so hard to find a magazine!

Just as Meng Huo was about to give up, the phone he had just bought rang.

“Hello, Meng Huo? This is Ye Xiong. Have you seen the latest issue of Weekly Youth?”

From the other side of the phone came the cheerful voice of editor-in-chief Ye Xiong.

“Don’t mention it, my place is too small to be found everywhere.” Meng Huo complained.

“Haha, this is normal. Our magazine orders hundreds of copies a week in the average county town. On average, a bookstore only has a dozen copies. Any good-looking new serial will be out of stock.” Ye Xiong replied with a smile. Developed, even readers in small counties can get news quickly.

This issue of “Weekly Shonen” has attracted some attention on the Internet, and there are also many comic fans in the mainland. Of course, this low-stock area will be robbed.

“Listen to what you mean, the results of “Detective Conan” are not bad?”

Meng Huo asked.

It’s more than good, it’s a miracle-Ye Xiong thinks so, but he thinks that Meng Huo can’t be praised too much. If young people are proud, they will easily go downhill.

“The results of the reader questionnaire have not come out yet, and I don’t know the specific situation.” So Ye Xiong chose a moderate answer: “It depends on the situation, you can rest assured.”

“That’s right, Meng Huo.” He changed the subject and said, “I have connected you with the school, Ninghai No.1 Senior High School.”

Ninghai No. 1 Middle School? Meng Huo was taken aback. That was the top three key high school in Ninghai. He didn’t expect Ye Xiong to find such a good school for him. It seemed that the top high school entrance examination student had chosen it. However, this may be a good thing for others, but it is a disaster for Meng Huo.

“Can you change it, you can find me a key high school, how can I take care of comics with such a strict academic system?”

The so-called key high schools, Meng Huo feels that their main characteristic is that they have stricter requirements for students than ordinary schools. Only strict standards and excellent educational resources can create the brilliance of the college entrance examination again and again.

Ye Xiong’s answer was a bit stiff: “We have also considered this point. Don’t worry. The principal of Ninghai No. 1 High School agrees that you don’t go to school. You only need to go to the midterm and final exams of each semester, and keep your grades ahead of the school. At fifty, the school will retain your student status.”

Nima—You can still maintain the top 50 in key high schools without going to school. Ye Xiong believes him too much, right? Meng Huo wanted to scold people very much. He felt that Ye Xiong didn’t care about school problems at all. He helped Meng Huo find the best school, but couldn’t the expelled Meng Huo be able to draw cartoons wholeheartedly?

The editor-in-chief was very thoughtful, but with Meng’s unforgettable ability, he was not afraid of him at all.

“Okay, thank you for your help.”

Meng was thanked. In fact, from another perspective, if he keeps his grades stable, he can get a diploma without going to school. Where can I find such a good thing!

“Um…”

Ye Xiong was originally prepared to meet Meng Huo’s anger, and even thought of an excuse. The other party’s thank you made his preparations turn into a bubble, and he was really uncomfortable. What is the situation? Is this kid really confident that he is learning while drawing comics? …Too fucking, right?

“One more thing, Meng Huo.” Ye Xiong closed his mind, and continued: “It just so happens that you haven’t come to Ninghai. Our editorial department has limited manpower, so we won’t provide you with a responsible editor for the time being.”

“How about providing it after school starts?”

Meng Huo’s heart moved. Of course he is fine. In fact, he does not need other people’s guidance to draw comics.

He quickly agreed.

The conversation between the two was over. After putting down the phone, Ye Xiongchang, who was standing in the chairman’s office, let out a sigh of relief.

“Did he agree?”

An old man sat in front of him, making tea lightly. UU Reading www.uukanshu.cOM

“Yes, I agree to it all.” Ye Xiong nodded, with a puzzled expression on his face: “But chairman, why did you suddenly draw him in?”

He felt very strange that both the school and the editor were arranged by the old man in front of him. Ye Xiong originally planned to find a similar school at random.

“The first episode of “Detective Conan” has very good market feedback. Since you believe in his potential, I will follow the next bet.” The old man held the tea cup and blew lightly, a flash of light flashed in his eyes: “Editor’s question Don’t worry, I have other candidates.”

“These things are just a matter of effort, but Ye Xiong, if the child’s benefits are short-lived, I will recoup all the investment!”

“Yes.”

Ye Xiong nodded. He vaguely felt that the chairman had other calculations in his heart. Of course, this was not a bad thing. With the support of the chairman, he can not only train a cartoonist, but also create an iconic example that leads the flourishing of original comics.

Now it is more important to maintain the enthusiasm brought by the first chapter of “Detective Conan”. Ye Xiong has already received the manuscripts of the second and third chapters, although there is no stunning picture at the end of the first chapter. However, the following plot is quite charming.

Ye Xiong believes that only a few weeks later, “Detective Conan” will be a complete sensation.

He believes in his own vision even more. If an editor can improve Meng Huo’s drawing skills, when he can freely draw high-quality comics like the first and last scenes…

China, no, the entire world’s comics industry will boil for Meng Huo!
