Chapter 386 Adjustment and First Release Date
Chapters 3-6 of "Steel Refining" respectively talk about "City of Carbon Mine" and "Battle on the Car", which are two piecemeal chapters.
In "Steel Refining O3", because Aunt Niu only drew part of the manga, this part of the content was also included in the animation. , these two words were omitted by "fa".
After these few episodes were published, Shen Xin also had a certain amount of psychological preparation for the results of these four episodes.
The reality did not "disappoint" Shen Xin.
The small book of "icfuture" is basically hovering at fourth or fifth, while the ranking of "Youth 1eap" is more realistic, directly falling to sixth and seventh, so that some editors suspect that "Youth 1eap" spends so much effort to introduce "Smelting Steel", is it worth it?
These doubts were directly suppressed by Murakami.
There are ups and downs in the creation of comics. This is a very normal thing. Ordinary people still have headaches and colds, let alone serialized works.
"Editor-in-Chief, the original manuscript of "Game" has been delivered."
Ishizawa opened the email and downloaded the packaged "game" manuscript.
"Quickly proofread the content for errors, and then send it to the printing factory." Murakami said in a deep voice, leaning on the back of the chair.
"yes."
"Also, Yokoi, have you proofread the manuscript of Chapter 8 of "Steel Refining"?" Murakami asked Yokoi again.
"Well, Chapter 8 has already been calibrated."
"knew,
Together with "game", sent to the printing house. " Murakami exhorted.
"Yes. By the way, editor-in-chief, "icfuture" is already preparing to print the first volume of "Steel Refining." Yokoi thought about the booklet.
"So fast?"
Murakami was taken aback, feeling that "Steel Refining" has not been serialized for a long time, so why is there a booklet?
"Editor-in-Chief, the first two chapters of "Steel Refining" are more than forty pages long, of course the number of chapters is less. Moreover, "icfuture" has great expectations for this comic. The sixth chapter has just been published and is in the process of preparation." Volume 1 is a separate volume." Yokoi reminded.
"I see... well, I don't know how many copies will be given by the sales department." Murakami didn't have the confidence.
...
"Youth 1eap" did not give a clear number of copies, but the sales department of "icfuture" directly showed their cards.
"500,000 volumes!?"
Looking at the report sent by Jiang Zhong, Shang Haozhi was overjoyed.
"I tell you, Boss Bao is also very optimistic about the results of "Steel Refining"...you are under a lot of pressure." Jiang Zhong reminded.
"No, I think this is the treatment that "Steel Refining" deserves. You forgot that "Soul of Chess" also surprised many people when it was not favored." Shang Haozhi laughed.
"I just want to remind you. By the way, "Smelting Steel" is expected to be released in two weeks. Before that, you should publicize it in the magazine first."
Shang Haozhi nodded, just as he was about to agree, he accidentally saw Wang Wenhong raised his hand.
"What's wrong? Xiao Wang." Shang Haozhi asked in surprise.
"Editor-in-Chief, Manager Jiang..." Wang Wenhong got up, walked in front of the two, looked at Shang Haozhi, "It will be released in two weeks, it will be the eighth chapter of "Steel Refining"."
"What happened to Chapter 8?" Jiang Zhong asked back.
Shang Haozhi didn't react for a while.
"Synthetic beast..." Wang Wenhong stopped, but his expression was a little nervous.
The content of the first 6 episodes of "Steel Refining" is fairly easy, but the style of the 7th and 8th episodes suddenly changed.
Tucker turned a cute little girl and a dog into a synthetic beast. When Wang Wenhong saw this for the first time, his heart felt like an iron fist hit his chest.
This is simply testing the bottom line of human nature.
At that time, he proposed to change this sentence, but Shen Xin insisted on doing so, which gave him quite a headache.
In the end, he didn't argue with Shen Xin, so he could only choose to compromise. For this, he was even teased by Yan Fei.
If the booklet is sold shortly after Chapter 8 is published, then the sales of Volume 1 will definitely be affected, which is obvious.
For normal people, the Synthetic Beast incident is like a fishbone stuck in their throat, making them extremely uncomfortable.
Shang Haozhi also thought of this episode, frowning slightly.
"Bring me the names of Chapter 9 and Chapter 10 of "Steel Refining", and I'll take a look." Shang Haozhi ordered.
Wang Wenhong immediately turned around, printed out the names of the last two episodes, and handed them over to Shang Haozhi.
Shang Haozhi quickly flipped through the names of the last two episodes, his expression calmed down, "Manager Jiang, the booklet will be postponed for two weeks, and the 10th episode will be sold after it is published."
"Okay, our salesperson will also go to various bookstores to conduct research, and hope that the 500,000 copies can be sold smoothly." Jiang Zhong said.
"No problem, I'll ask Xiao Wang to follow up on this matter."
Shang Haozhi stood up and sent Jiang Zhong out of the editorial office.
Wang Wenhong breathed a sigh of relief, and just turned around, but saw Jian Xiaomei staring at him.
"What's wrong?" Wang Wenhong asked in surprise.
"The book release date of "Smelting Steel" is next to that of "Hunting Abyss"." Jian Xiaomei complained.
"Huh?"
"In the first place, the difference between the two books was five days. "Smelting Steel" was on the fifth day after "Hunting Abyss" was sold...I really hate you." Jian Xiaomei bit her lip, helpless.
The first week of book sales often has the highest sales volume, and the fifth day is considered the end of the week. "Smelting Steel" is sold here, and both comics are destined to be affected.
"That..." Wang Wenhong rubbed his forehead, "Coincidence...purely coincidence."
After listening to the conversation between the two, Yan Fei shook her head helplessly.
Sometimes, it is unavoidable that the monographs of one's own magazine "fight" with each other.
At noon, Wang Wenhong bought a cup of Coke and a hamburger and prepared to take them back to the editorial office. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she unexpectedly found Yan Fei squatting at the door of the living room.
"Yan Fei, what's the matter?" Wang Wenhong asked curiously.
Yan Fei turned her head and looked at Wang Wenhong with a blushing face, her eyes were bright, and there was joy in her brows.
"so cute--"
Eh?
Wang Wenhong's heart tightened, what did this woman say? It makes people completely unprepared.
Then, a girl with two pigtails appeared in his vision.
The little girl was about three or four years old, her eyes were dark and bright, her skin was fair, and her face was slightly round, which should be baby fat. At this moment, she was looking at him with a confused face, then turned her head to look at the living room, and stepped forward. With small steps, ran over.
I didn't mean him... But, he's really cute.
"This... who is it?" Wang Wenhong looked curious as he watched the child enter the room.
"A cartoonist's daughter, Xu Jie's." Yan Fei stood up, narrowed her eyes, and looked at the living room. "He seems to have submitted a new name. I don't know if I can pass it."
"Oh...is that Zuo Yuan? The one who painted "Mountain God"?" Wang Wenhong asked in surprise.
"how do you know?"
"Curiosity, then, I discussed this work with Mr. Shen."
"How did he say?"
"The lack of commercialization, the author should broaden his horizons." Wang Wenhong explained.
really……
Yan Fei sighed, Shen Xin's evaluation was exactly the same as hers.
