My Cartoonist Strategy

Chapter 117 Competition

Ye Hex posted pictures of the pillow and mouse pad on Weibo, and @ and the official micro of "New World".

Soon, Jian Xiaomei sent a private message asking him to delete Weibo.

However, after finishing his Weibo, Ye Hexu returned to the workbench and continued to draw the manuscript of "Hunting Abyss". Other assistants also worked one after another. No one knew that Jian Xiaomei sent a private letter.

In the end, Jian Xiaomei made a call to the middle-aged assistant again, and asked him to hand over the phone to Ye Hexu.

"Hey, what's the matter?" Ye Hexu took off his headphones and asked suspiciously.

"Hurry up and delete Weibo." Jian Xiaomei's sharp voice came from the microphone.

"Huh? Why?" Ye Hexun puzzled.

"Nonsense! You do this to promote "Y's". Don't forget, you are opponents!" Jian Xiaomei's voice was very irritable.

"Oh, I know all the reasons you said, but don't care too much. "Y's" is an excellent comic. I should always give some suggestions as a fan, right? Besides, don't you think the surroundings are great? ?" Ye Hexu chuckled.

"You are really... I'm so mad. Do you know? The sales of "Y's" have exceeded 600,000 copies, and the gap between "Hunting Abyss" and it has also been pulled from 50,000 to 80,000." Jian Xiaomei's head went up. Why is she showing such a cartoonist?No sense of crisis at all.

"Ah? It was pulled away again? Why?" Ye Hex surprised.

Originally, the sales of 250,000 copies in the first week were not bad, but after the first week, the sales of comics began to decline, and soon in April, the sales of "The Hunting Abyss" were only 520,000.

In fact, not only "Hunting Abyss", but also the sales of "Penalty" has been sluggish for a long time. It was released for four months, and it has not reached 650,000 copies, ranking 13th in the new book sales list.

"Y's" is not going up and down, sandwiched between "Hunting Abyss" and "Crime", sales have steadily increased, but by the position of the previous week, the sales volume of the single book was less than 600,000 copies.

Unlike "Abyss of Hunting" and "Penalty", the sales of "Y's" include two separate copies, that is to say, "Y's" has less potential than the other two, but judging from the current trend, it is "Crime" and "Hunting Abyss" are more stable.

"It has a lot to do with the release of radio dramas. Those readers who are attracted to "Radio dramas" are likely to buy two single-line books at a time. The increase in sales will be faster."

Ye Hexu nodded slightly, suddenly laughing out loud.

"What's wrong?" Jian Xiaomei puzzled.

"Jian Xiaomei, do you know the marathon?" Ye Hexu smiled.

"Nonsense, don't you know?" Jian Xiaomei angrily said.

"Then you should know that the person who starts to run fast does not necessarily laugh to the end. The champion is often the follower at the beginning. Teacher Shen’s radio show is indeed eye-catching, but don’t forget, "Hunting The Abyss has a fall season. The promotional role of the animation is far from what the radio drama can match. What we need to do now is to quietly follow "Y's" and "Crime". After July, it is our home stadium. ."

"Teacher Ye."

"Ok?"

"You will use your brain too?" Jian Xiaomei hesitated.

"I just think this is fun."

Ye Hexu's laughter reached Jian Xiaomei's ear.

Jian Xiaomei took a deep breath, "Mr. Ye, "Y's" began to be promoted in Hongchuan's media. The third volume and the radio drama were released at the same time. The release date is April 7."

"Oh, there are more than two weeks. It seems that this time "New World" is also determined to push "Y's" up."

"More than that, the second volume of "Crime" was also released on April 7. A separate book of two comics,

"Huh? Why are they good to develop and sell?" Ye Hexu was a little surprised, but after a little thought, he thought of the reason.

The score of "Crime" on the "Comic Future" questionnaire has always been among the best.If the opponent is "Dragon King Biography", "Crime" may move the release period back, but its competitor is "Y's", but it is different.

Why should "Penalty" make way for "Y's"?

The intention of "New World" is more obvious.The release of the radio drama will make the popularity of "Y's" peak in a short period of time, and may even be higher than the popularity of July, August, and September.

If you have such popularity, you still can't compete with "Penalty", then the probability of "Y's" winning the "Newcomer Award" will be much smaller, and even more exaggerated, "Y's" may automatically give up The chase of the "Rookie Award".

"Jian Xiaomei, can you ask the editorial department if you can let "Hunting Abyss" also be released in April." Ye Hexu said.

"What do you want to do? Don't be confused, there is no need to mix with them." Jian Xiaomei issued a warning.

"How is it possible? But Jian Xiaomei, you should also be clear. If the second volume of "The Hunting Abyss" is released in May, it means that before July, there are only two single copies of "The Hunting Abyss." You are sure to rely on only two. Can the sales volume of the single book squeeze into the top ten of the rookie sales list?

"It's better to use the third volume of "Hunting Depths" and have a showdown with "Y's" and "Penalty" in June. Besides, when the animation is screened, it will also drive the sales of single books."

What is this guy thinking about?The span is too big, right?

Jian Xiaomei immediately looked down and pondered. After three minutes, he looked up and said to Ye Hexu: "I know. I will mention your suggestion to the editor, but whether the second volume will be released in April depends on the editor and the sales department. meaning."

"I know." Ye Hexue hung up the phone and dropped the phone to the middle-aged assistant.

June, hey, I really look forward to it. I don’t know if it will be a big chaos.

The G pen dipped in ink, and the smile on Ye Hexu's face grew stronger.

...

Almost at the same time, in another workroom in Hongchuan, a young man in a white sweater was painting at his desk. The G pen in his hand was sliding smoothly along the pencil line draft.

Behind him, there are still three assistants lying on the workbench to paint.

Although there are four people in the whole studio, there is an indescribable depression, as if the air in the working room is thinner than outside, making people breathless.

"Ding Dong."

The doorbell rang, and the assistant near the door stood up instantly. He hurried to the door and opened the room door. The refreshing air blew his face, and he immediately regained energy.

"Is the teacher jumping still painting?" Standing at the door was a young man in a white suit and purple shirt.

"Yeah, the same as before. When we left yesterday, the teacher sat there to paint. When we came, the teacher continued. Xu Brother...Is the teacher's body really okay?" The assistant looked a little embarrassed. youth.

The young man in front of him, named Xu Jie, became the responsible editor of "Penalty" after taking over "Penalty".

"I know. I will say a few words to him." Xu Jie patted the assistant's shoulder and walked into the studio.
