Chapter 128 Reader Discussion

The release date of the third volume of "Punishment" is set for June 1, and the novel of "Punishment" will also be released on the same day.

At the same time, "Comic Future" announced that in addition to the two booklets, "Punishment" will also produce a radio drama, free trial. As for the audition method, it is similar to "Y's", that is, there will be a line of feature codes at the back of the novel and the manga booklet.

It's just that "Punishment" is more ruthless than "Y's". The feature code of the novel can listen to the first five episodes of the radio drama, while the feature code of the manga can listen to the content of the next 5 episodes.

Although all 10 episodes of radio dramas will be released in one month, for some "patients" with obsessive-compulsive disorder, they cannot bear it at all.

Readers of novels are a little bit better, after all, what is missing are the next five chapters, as long as they wait quietly until they are released for free, it will be OK, but readers of comics are very uncomfortable.

Without the first five episodes... then what's the use of the radio drama with the last five episodes?

As a result, they had to add another expense to the cost of comics-purchasing the novel of "Punishment".

A week before the release, "Comic Future" released a trial version of the radio drama, and many listeners were hooked.

The content of the story is roughly the same as the manga, but the order is slightly different. A small part of the reasoning elements are reduced, but the feeling of horror is added, especially the background music with the gloomy monologue, so that readers who like reasoning audio are not too comfortable.

The die-hard fans of "Punishment" were very satisfied, and many readers announced on the forum of Manga.com that they would buy the third volume of "Punishment" and the novel.

"Haha, the comics and novels of "Punishment" are released at the same time, I want to buy them all."

"I tried listening to the radio drama, and it was very emotional."

"Nonsense, the monologue is Teacher Zhang Chen, who often recites some thriller audio novels. This time, "Comic Future" also paid a lot of money."

"That's right. I took a look at CAST. This time, all the voice actors invited are capable voice actors. Unlike "Y's", which invited some popular voice actors, not only the price is expensive, but the background sound is not very good."

"Well, upstairs, although I also like "Crime and Punishment", "Y's" is a romance comic, and the background sound of the radio drama must not be compared with "Y's"."

"Doesn't this mean that the quality of the radio drama "Punishment" is higher than that of "Y's"?"

"Well... so to speak, there is no problem."

"Originally, the sales of "Punishment" and "Y's" were about the same. Now that there is a radio drama for promotion, it may not lose to "Y's". I look forward to the release of "Punishment"."

"What is 'not necessarily'? Is it sure to win?" Someone immediately posted a rebuttal.

"That's right, don't forget, "Punishment" still has 24 episodes of Instant Noodles, which will be broadcast in the fall, and this is the most important thing."

"Yes, yes! With Instant Noodles, "Punishment" can completely compete with "Hunting Abyss" in July, August, and September."

"Still thinking about "Hunting Abyss"? The second volume has been released for a month, and it has just reached 400,000, which is not as good as "Punishment" and "Y's."

These posts are in the "Comic Future" section, and readers of "The Hunting Deep" will also see these posts.

However, apart from being angry, they have no way to defend themselves. After all, they are right. The sales volume of the single volume of "Hunting Abyss" is really not as good as that of "Punishment" and "Y's". Leave a message under Hexu's Weibo, hoping this guy can make some moves.

"Hunting Abyss" has sold a total of 840,000 copies. Although it only ranks 14th, he is not in a hurry.

After all, the third volume hasn't been released yet, so he still has a chance to come back.

Subsequently, "New World" also announced the release date of "Y's".

June 3rd. What surprised readers even more is that on the day of release, "Y's" will hold a one-day book signing event at Jiman Bookstore in Hongchuan.

As soon as this news came out, it caused heated debates in the "Comic Future" and "Other" sections.

"What's going on? Isn't "Y's" a manga by Yunhai? How could it be sold in Jiman Bookstore?"

"Even without the base camp, "Y's" is enough."

"How can this be called fighting? This is just self-inflicted humiliation. I don't even look at whose headquarters Hongchuan is?"

"I bet that the book signings of "Y's" won't exceed 2,000 copies."

"You must have investigated in advance, and you know that the previous two book signings of "Y's" never exceeded 2,000 copies."

"Will you bet or not?"

"Why do you gamble when you know you're going to lose? Isn't it good to save money for girls?"

And in "Other Forums", the hottest post was not discussing why "Y's" held a book signing event in Hongchuan, but the pinned purchasing agent post.

The moderator personally guarantees that readers who want to buy books will be registered in the book according to the order of the replies, and they will try to buy signed "Y's" for everyone.

There is no intermediate price difference charged for the event, but payment must be made in full.

In less than an hour after posting, the replies reached more than 100 floors.

In addition to the begging post, another piece of information from "Y's" also aroused heated discussions among everyone.

"The radio drama of "Y's" is also free, but the release process is slightly different from the first one. Every time the sales volume of the fourth volume exceeds 100,000 copies, 2 episodes of the radio drama will be released, providing free trial listening and downloading... "Y's" method Isn't it too weird? Can we only try to listen to all radio dramas after a month?"

"Lord, you're overthinking. Didn't you see it? The news announced by "New World" didn't mention the time of full release."

"That means, if the sales volume does not reach 500,000 copies, will the following ones not be able to hear the complete radio drama?"

"It's not just the second season of the radio drama? Please, have you finished reading the news? After the sales volume reaches 500,000 copies, if the questionnaires sent back are less than 300,000 copies, it is estimated that there will be no radio dramas for the next episode."

"So cruel? What should I do?"

"What's wrong with you guys? Is it so difficult that the fourth volume of "Y's" has sold less than 500,000 copies? Don't forget, the third volume of "Y's" alone has sold 550,000 copies."

"That's right, and it's absolutely fair to most people. I remember that in the first week of the third volume last time, the booklet sold nearly 400,000 copies, which means that at least six episodes were released in a week. This speed is already very fast. Soon."

"They may also want to know if the radio dramas are popular, after all, these are free, and they need a reason to stick to it."

"If you say that, it makes sense."

"It's like the magazine has given us the right to choose, and we have the right to decide whether the radio drama will live or die."

"Besides, even if there is no radio drama, will you stop selling "Y's"? I will definitely buy it, but as for you, I don't care?"

"Don't talk about it, buy it, buy it, "Y's" is worth collecting."

"Punishment" launched a radio drama, making the battle for comic sales more intense. The readers of "Punishment" also took a deep breath, wanting to reverse the "shame" brought about by "Y's" last time.

The readers of "Y's" didn't think so much, but saved enough money and waited silently for the release of "Punishment".
