Chapter 289 Top 3 or No. 1?
There is no doubt that the 11th district has a large animation market, even compared with the United States, it is not weak at all. Therefore, they will not be without the "International Comics Award".
In fact, this award has been around for almost 20 years, and the Foreign Comics Award at the Comic Festival was imitated from this award.
The bonus is not too much, a certificate, plus 500,000 yen, but because it is an official award, the nature is slightly different from other manga awards.
There are only two awards in this award, one is the "Best Award" and the other is the "Excellence Award". Therefore, there will be no live broadcast, and at most the prize money and certificates will be handed over to the cartoonist—in fact, not only the "International Cartoon Award" , Many awards in District 11 will not be broadcast live.
The reason is that in District 11, unlike China's "Manga Festival", which is a comprehensive festival, many awards are issued by magazines or the media themselves.
"That's right." Shang Haozhi nodded slightly.
"That's right. Therefore, we don't want "Soul of Chess" to suddenly appear unpredictable."
"Mr. Tomita also thinks this way?" Shang Haozhi asked Futian lunge again.
"We're just asking about your company's plans to avoid any special circumstances when producing the next season." Oi translated Tomita's words.
next season?
Hearing this, Bao Jiyi chuckled lightly, took out the glasses cloth, and wiped the lenses.
Shang Haozhi glanced at Bao Jiyi, and with confidence in his heart, he touched his mustache, "Thank you Mr. Murakami and Mr. Fukuda for their concern. We have talked with Mr. Shen before, and he thinks Zuo Wei's departure means Xiao Guang grew up from a child hiding under the wings of Zuo Wei. This is what the whole comic is about. Therefore, Mr. Shen will not change his decision. As for the "International Comic Award"...it depends on fate. "
The "International Comic Award" is certainly good, but the scope of competition is too wide, and the judging committee has to face manuscripts from all over the world, and it is inevitable that they will be mistaken, and there is a certain degree of chance.
Long Tian was dumbfounded when he heard this.
What Shang Haozhi said was still somewhat different from his expectations.
"In addition, although the booklet of this issue has not yet come out, we have seen the newspaper that "Soul of Chess" is currently ranked second, and the number of votes is very close to that of the first place. Therefore, this statement really lowered the number of votes in "Soul of Chess". The popularity of "Soul of Chess" is within an acceptable range. After all, before this, "Soul of Chess" has been ranked first for nine consecutive weeks. Even if the ranking drops slightly, it is reasonable."
Nine weeks in a row?
Long Tian's eyes brightened, this ranking was indeed much better than what he had guessed.
"That... Shang... Chief Editor, can I express my opinion?" Long Tian said.
"Please say."
"If the book "Soul of Chess" can still be ranked first... No, as long as it can be ranked in the top three, I have nothing to say." Long Tian made a request.
The four people in District 11 discussed with each other for a while, and finally agreed with Long Tian's statement.
In the 11th district, readers' discussions about Zuo Wei's disappearance became more intense. Therefore, Murakami also looked at the ranking of "Soul of Chess" on "Youth 1eap".
"Also in the top three?" Shang Haozhi was a little surprised.
"Shounen 1eap" has more excellent works, and the competition is more intense. In addition, "Shounen 1eap" is not the home of "Soul of Chess". Compared with other comics, it is obviously at a disadvantage.
It is difficult for "Soul of Chess" to get the top three on "Youth 1eap".
"No. The last episode of "Soul of Chess" only ranked fourth, and this episode should drop... to the top six. If it can be in the top six, we have no objections." Murakami said seriously.
Shang Haozhi laughed dryly.
Do you have any opinions, what's the use, anyway, Shen Xin will definitely not listen to you.
On the contrary, he, sandwiched between the two parties, felt a little worried.
But as the editor-in-chief of "comicfuture", he must support Shen Xin no matter what.
After the video conference, Bao Jiyi and Shang Haozhi also sent Long Tian into the elevator.
Turning around, Bao Jiyi turned his head and asked Shang Haozhi: "It seems that you have decided to support Teacher Shen."
"Teacher Shen is the author of 'we', if I don't support him, who do I support?" Shang Haozhi emphasized the word "we".
Bao Jiyi nodded slightly, "That's right. How likely do you think he is to win the first place in this issue of the book?"
"First place?" Shang Haozhi rubbed his chin, "Probably not, "The Legend of the Dragon King" won the first place in the newspaper by virtue of the title page, and "Hunting Abyss" followed closely, and "Soul of Chess" only had 5 votes The gap should end here. However, it is not a big problem to enter the top three."
"That's it." Bao Jiyi nodded slightly.
"By the way, what's the sales volume of the booklet "Soul of Chess"?"
"December nearly exceeded 1 million volumes. In addition, in the first two months of this year, there were more than 1.3 million volumes. Considering that the 7th volume was released in January and the 8th volume was released in March, this sales volume should still be good. accept."
"No. 1 for two consecutive months?"
"This month is also number one, because of the release of a new booklet, plus the addition of animation... It is difficult for other comics to catch up." Shang Haozhi reminded.
Bao Jiyi heaved a sigh of relief, even if the sales volume of the booklet is fulfilled, the first place in the small book should be broken.
At this moment, he couldn't say that he had let go of the burden in his heart, but he still felt a little regretful.
This incident became an episode, except for Wang Wenhong, no one in the editorial department cared about Shang Haozhi's purpose of going out.
After Wang Wenhong saw Shang Haozhi came back, he didn't talk to him, so he knew that the situation of "Soul of Chess" hadn't changed for the worse.
The reported results were just for reference, so Wang Wenhong didn't tell Shen Xin, but "Soul of Chess" only got the second place in the newspaper, which is really unlucky.
On Friday, the editorial department, which is usually relatively active, was lifeless.
When Jian Xiaomei and Jia Hui looked at Wang Wenhong's eyes, they were full of hostility, and Wang Wenhong did not show any weakness. Although he was uncertain, his face did not show timidity.
Usually, at 10:00, the little book would come down, but today, it was already 10:30, and there was still no movement.
There were also discussions in the editorial department.
When things go wrong, there must be demons. Perhaps this issue of the book is a little different from the previous ones.
Jian Xiaomei and Jia Hui looked expectant, but Wang Wenhong's expression became more and more embarrassing.
"Ding dong..."
An email popped up from the lower right corner, Wang Wenhong's heart tightened, and he was about to open it when he suddenly heard a surprised sound coming from around him.
"How could this be?" Jian Xiaomei asked in surprise.
Jia Hui narrowed his eyes and looked relaxed.
broken! The first place is "The Legend of the Dragon King"!
Wang Wenhong's heart was beating wildly, the mouse finally clicked on the email, and the ranking of Xiaoshu appeared in front of his eyes instantly.
First place, "The Legend of the Dragon King", 450 votes.
Third place, "Hunting Abyss", 440 votes.
Wang Wenhong just glanced at it, and "Soul of Chess" was caught in the middle of the two comics.
With extremely contradictory feelings, his eyes finally fell on the second position.
First place, "Soul of Chess", 450 votes.
Tied! ? so will this happen?
Most of the power in Wang Wenhong's body seemed to disappear in an instant, and he leaned against the back of the chair, unable to speak a word for a long time.
