Chapter 209 Ye Hexu's Analysis

After Wang Wenhong heard the news, he left the editorial office immediately and called Shen Xin impatiently.

"Mr. Shen, congratulations, "Soul of Chess" is the first place in the 'Little Book'."

"Eh?" Shen Xin blinked, "Is it really number one?"

He just said it casually at the beginning, but he didn't expect it to become a reality.

"Why lie to you? "The Legend of the Dragon King" has been in the first place for more than two months, and now you have surpassed it." Wang Wenhong said excitedly.

"Really? Hey... Didn't I tell you before, I think "Soul of Chess" can take the first place."

"Yes, yes, didn't I consider that "The Legend of the Dragon King" and "The Hunting Abyss" are now very popular, so I didn't dare to think about the first place?" Wang Wenhong rubbed his nose and smiled, "I will finish the line draft early today, and I will go back I invite you to dinner."

"Forget it, you should save your salary to pay the rent? I'll invite you tonight."

"okay."

Gao Hang and Ma Ning raised their heads in confusion and looked at Shen Xin.

""Soul of Chess" won the first place in the 'Little Book'." Shen Xin supported the fence and gave a thumbs up.

"First place?" Ma Ning opened his mouth wide.

Of course he knows how difficult it is to be number one in "ic future".

Even if it is a manga that has been cut in half, if it is placed in other magazines, it may even have good results.

After all, "ic future" is the first issue of comics in China, and the competition is too fierce.

Therefore, when a newly serialized comic can overwhelm "The Legend of the Dragon King" and become the first in the first issue, any person in the industry can predict its future——"Soul of Chess" can at least become a Hot comics.

Gao Hang clenched his fist confidently and held it up high, "Brother Xin, what you did is really beautiful."

"Okay, don't talk so much, hurry up to work today, and have dinner together tonight." Shen Xin waved her hand.

Gao Hang smiled, picked up the d-pen, and drew the background. Ma Ning took a deep breath, which confirmed his original decision. Watching the creation of "Soul of Chess" on the spot should improve his own strength.

"Soul of Chess" won the first place, which surprised Wang Wenhong, and other editors were also surprised.

Jian Xiaomei stared at the questionnaire for a full five minutes. Finally, she stuffed the questionnaire into a file folder, stood up depressedly, carried her handbag, and walked towards the door, but almost bumped into someone who was about to enter the house at the door. Wang Wenhong.

The two stared at each other, one entered the room and the other went.

Jia Hui leaned against the back of his chair, and looked at the rankings for a few minutes before finally picking up the landline.

"Hi, I'm Wang Yunze."

"Oh, Mr. Wang, the 'Little Book' is out this time." Jia Hui said in a low voice.

"Didn't you say that 'Little Book' doesn't need to tell me?" Wang Yunze asked puzzled.

""The Legend of the Dragon King" ranked second." Jia Hui said patiently.

"Oh?" Wang Yunze stopped writing and leaned against the seat, "Did you get overtaken by "Hunting Abyss"?"

Wang Yunze glanced at "ic future" on the table, "The Hunting Abyss" is indeed not bad, but the recent issues of "The Legend of the Dragon King" are not bad, and "The Legend of the Dragon King" has more readers than "The Hunting Abyss". "The Legend of the Dragon King" should not be surpassed by "Hunting Abyss".

"It's not... it's by "Soul of Chess"."

""Soul of Chess"?" Wang Yunze was slightly taken aback, picked up "ic future", read "Soul of Chess" quickly, and closed the magazine again, "I see."

"Don't you have doubts?"

"No. This issue should indeed be "Soul of Chess". But in the next issue, I will still be number one."

Wang Yunze hung up the phone, read "Soul of Chess" carefully again, stroked his beard, "Soul of Chess? Interesting."

When Jian Xiaomei came to Ye Hexu's studio, Ye Hexu was squatting on the swivel chair, staring intently at the magazines on the table.

She took a deep breath, and after thinking about how to persuade Ye Hexu, she took off his earphones and said patiently, "The 'Little Book' is out."

"Hmm. "Soul of Chess" won the first place, right?" Ye Hexu asked back.

"You know?" Jian Xiaomei asked in surprise.

The words that he had thought up just now turned into nonsense in an instant.

"It's not hard to guess." Ye Hexu leaned on the back of the chair, put his hands behind his head, "The recent plots of "The Legend of the Dragon King" and "The Hunting Abyss" are too tight, if there is a comic with acceptable quality and a relatively relaxed rhythm , will definitely attract more readers. That is to say, "Soul of Chess" won the votes of those who did not want to vote for "The Legend of the Dragon King" and "Hunting Abyss."

"So powerful?" Jian Xiaomei hasn't thought about it yet.

"Well. Of course, in addition to this, Zuo Wei also played a key role." Ye Hexu looked at Zuo Wei in the cartoon.

"It's true. The magazine also thinks that Zuo Wei's character design is very good, which has attracted many female readers." Jian Xiaomei is also very optimistic about the role of "Zuo Wei".

"You only saw the surface, but didn't see the essence of this character."

"Um?"

"Why do you think Mr. Shen chose the role of Zuo Wei? He can completely set up a Go genius without the need for 'Zuo Wei'. I think such comics will also produce results."

Jian Xiaomei rubbed her chin, lost in thought, Ye Hexu's statement was not wrong, but why didn't Shen Xin do this?

"Jin Tengguang is a novice in Go, and he doesn't understand anything. But there is Zuo Wei behind him, so he can use Zuo Wei to compete with Go masters. Did you think of anything? This is different from the general reasoning Comics, just the opposite."

"Inference manga?"

How did this come to reasoning comics again?

Jian Xiaomei became more and more puzzled.

"In ordinary reasoning comics, if the protagonist needs to solve the case, he will hide a key evidence or clue. The protagonist, the murderer and the reader, the reader is the one who lacks information. But the first chapter of "Soul of Chess" is the opposite Come on, the reader and the protagonist know Zuo Wei's existence, but the other characters don't. This equates the reader and the protagonist, which means..."

"Sense of substitution!" Jian Xiaomei suddenly realized.

"That's right. Zuo Wei's existence has become a secret between the readers and the protagonist. This comic...is not simple." Ye Hexu sighed.

Jian Xiao raised her eyebrows. Could it be that Shen Xin is going to draw another excellent cartoon?

"So, let's take a look at the trend of "Soul of Chess" for a while? I always think it will be very interesting with this opening, paired with the theme of Go." Ye Hexu stretched his muscles, "But having said that, although "Soul of Chess" is very good, but Now is not the time for it to produce results, and in the future, I still want to hit the first place."

Seeing that Ye Hexu was not affected by this issue of "Little Book", Jian Xiaomei breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Ye Hexu doesn't get discouraged, then "Hunting Abyss" will be fine.

The first episode of "Soul of Chess" won the first place, which really made Wang Wenhong overjoyed.

As the serialization continued, the "Small Book" of the second, third and fourth chapters of "Soul of Chess" ranked 2nd, 4th, and 4th respectively. The results of "Soul of Chess" in "ic future" It can be regarded as stable.

As a newly serialized manga, stable performance is the most important thing.

As for competing for rankings with "The Legend of the Dragon King" and "The Hunting Abyss", Wang Wenhong hasn't thought about it yet. The serialization of "Soul of Chess" is still short, and its popularity has not yet gathered. If it wants to compete for the first place, it may take a few months.
