Chapter 453 Sales Decline

"Bye-Bye……"

The three assistants came out of Shen Xin's office, walked to the intersection, and parted ways.

Carrying her schoolbag, Liu Rui got on the subway and took out her mobile phone to check Weibo, but when she saw someone x-on:her in the penguin group, she subconsciously clicked on the penguin group.

Usually, the penguin group just leave messages in twos and threes, most of which are showing affection, which makes people's teeth itch.

As a "leftover" woman, her inner anxiety and uneasiness are not understood by this group of people.

But today, the penguin group was much more lively, and the content of the discussion also involved comics, and it was their teacher's comics.

"It's so lively today." Liu Rui sent a line.

"Oh, it's the 'big' assistant here. How is it, how hard is it?" A girl with a good relationship with her saw Liu Rui's reply and clicked quickly.

"Fortunately...it's been like that recently." Liu Rui was vague.

After hearing what Su Han said, she also began to examine herself, whether she was really too naive.

The people in the studio are very nice, and they can speak without any scruples, but what about outside?

Although she and these people are classmates, Teacher Shen and other cartoonists are competitors, so Liu Rui has room to speak.

She doesn't lie to her classmates, but her classmates' questions are answered selectively.

"I'm so envious. I also want to be Teacher Shen's assistant. Why is no one looking for me?" the female classmate complained.

"Luck... I helped my grandmother cross the road more times." Liu Rui joked.

"It's not just you, that boy Xiao Peng was lucky enough to follow Teacher Fu..."

With a question mark on her head, Liu Rui subconsciously sent a "?".

"Don't you know? Today's Weibo on Duomanwang, the poster is Teacher Fu's "Shengwu Academy"."

"Really?" Liu Rui was overjoyed, "Teacher Fu also created comics? I haven't checked my phone today... Wait, "Shengwu Academy"!?"

Of course Liu Rui knew about this cartoon, but she didn't expect that it was written by Fu Bo.

"Of course, Teacher Fu's name is written on that poster. I didn't expect Teacher Fu to debut under his real name. He's so handsome."

"So Xiao Peng is Teacher Fu's assistant?"

Liu Rui was surprised.

This world... is too small, right?

However, no matter what Teacher Fu's work is, it doesn't seem to have much to do with her.

"By the way, who was x-on:我 just now?" Liu Rui remembered the business, she joined the group because she saw someone x-on:her.

Immediately afterwards, someone poked her.

Xiao Peng?

Liu Rui clicked on Xiao Peng's Penguin in doubt, "What's the matter?"

"Are you using a tablet now?"

Digital tablet?

"Is that right?"

There are some differences between a pen display and a pen tablet.

The digital screen is more like a tablet computer, with the tip of the pen drawn on the 22-inch screen, and there is a larger brain screen in front of it for easy viewing of details. As for the digital board, it is a black board, on which the nib of the pen is drawn, but the eyes have to keep looking at the computer screen, and the cartoonist has to keep his head up.

"Can you recommend two textbooks? The detailed ones are the best." Xiao Peng sent another pitiful emoji.

Recommend two?

Liu Rui recalled that she read a lot of textbooks, after all, the studio is almost equivalent to a small library. The books I saw were all kinds of strange things, not only books related to comics, but also some books that were very different from each other.

She was suddenly asked to recommend two textbooks. For a while, she really didn't know how to choose, so she could only choose two textbooks that impressed her deeply.

"Does Teacher Fu have these books?"

"How is it possible? I'm going to the bookstore to buy it. By the way, where did you buy the book?"

"Ah? Uh, online shopping..." Liu Rui was afraid of hurting Xiao Peng, so she could only find a reason.

After quitting the penguin group, Liu Rui remembered what Su Han once said, that only feelings cannot persist.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this sentence made sense.

Of course, Liu Rui didn't mean that Fu Bo could be favored by Duoman.com, Fu Bo would definitely not suffer.

But what about people like yourself?

Thinking of this, Liu Rui felt a little lucky again.

In any case, at least she is doing well now.

Thinking of this, Liu Rui narrowed her eyes.

...

Although Duoman.com has not yet opened its website, the 35th issue of "ic future" has already shown signs of fatigue. The new issue of the magazine has dropped 200,000 copies, leaving only 5.2 million copies.

As soon as this data came out, the editorial department immediately exploded, discussing the reasons for the decline.

"Could it be influenced by Duoman.com?" Zhou Xiaoming whispered.

"Probably not. After all, Duoman.com hasn't opened a website yet, and the posters of those comics they promote are good, but the authors are not too famous, and the influence on comic magazines is relatively small." Jian Xiaomei speculated.

"Is it possible that it was affected by the suspension of "Hunting Abyss"?" Wang Wenhong asked.

"It's possible." Yan Fei nodded, "But if one less manga is lost, the sales of 200,000 copies will be lost. Isn't that an exaggeration?"

"This is the appeal of the signature comics. The popularity of "Hunting Abyss" in China is closely following "The Legend of the Dragon King". When "Soul of Chess" ended last year, the magazine's sales also dropped." Hook explained.

"Hunting Abyss" is only on hiatus, and will continue to be serialized in the future. Once "The Legend of the Dragon King" ends, the impact on "ic future" can be said to be inestimable.

"However, it cannot be ruled out that it was not influenced by Duoman.com, right?" Jia Hui reminded.

The only data is not enough to analyze the reasons for the decline in sales of "ic future", but they know that there must be something wrong with the magazine.

"What are you doing? Don't you have any work at hand? Then go to the street to clean up."

Shang Haozhi walked into the editorial office with a gloomy face, looked around, and the editorial office immediately became quiet.

"Let me tell you, this drop in sales has nothing to do with Duoman.com, it's because of the suspension of "Hunting Abyss". As for the basis... Among the three major publications, only our sales have dropped, while "Manga Fly" and "Leap" are relatively stable .

"In addition, I'm telling you that the trend of "Game" and "Steel Refining" is very good. This is not only reflected in the small books, but also in the hot list of online comics. On the hot list that includes District 11, both comics are squeezed into In the top 15, "Steel Refining" ranked second and "Game" ranked third on China's popularity list. Xiaomei, during this time, you need to run to Teacher Ye more often to keep track of the progress."

Sensing Shang Haozhi's gaze, Jian Xiaomei nodded quickly.

"By the way, Xiao Yan, the original script of "Steel Refining"... Has Shoji Yuno responded?" Shang Haozhi looked at Yan Fei again.

"Not yet, I just sent it last night."

"I remember Xiaohan gave it to you a long time ago." Wang Wenhong said curiously.

Yan Fei glared at Wang Wenhong angrily, "Does it take time to translate 70,000 characters into Japanese?"

She also has a job, so she can only translate in her spare time.

"..." Wang Wenhong scratched his head, "Forget I didn't say anything."
