Chapter 483 Propaganda

"Is "Smelting Steel" number one again?"

Ye Hexu squatted on the chair, looked at the drawing, and muttered to himself.

"That's right. To be honest, it's strange. The climax of "Smelting Steel" has already passed, but it's still number one."

"It's not surprising, because "Smelting Steel" is better than "Hunting Abyss"." Ye Hexu raised his head and said, "You don't think that "Smelting Steel" has already exerted its strength?"

"Ah? The battle between Rust and Roy, isn't it enough?"

"Not enough." Ye Hexu shook his head, "If the manga really starts to exert its strength, it will definitely involve the setting. Why do some manga's settings collapse? Because the author deliberately created a strong opponent in order to ensure the tension of the story. In order for the protagonist to defeat this opponent, many authors will choose to let the protagonist break through the original setting, let readers feel the growth of the protagonist, and ignite the passion in the reader's heart. But in this way, the subsequent power system may collapse."

"That's right." Jian Xiaomei nodded, agreeing with Ye Hexu's opinion.

"However, the battle between Rust and Roy was just a simple personal conflict, did it involve the power system? Has the truth been revealed? Did you see the main character, screaming hoarsely, just to kill the opponent? No To give a simple example, if Roy doesn't arrive in time to save Lisa, but witnesses Ruster kill Lisa, there will be an emotional collision, and Roy will be able to "strength" if he breaks his limit. a feeling of."

"But "Smelting Steel" didn't go like this, and Roy didn't even open the 'door', which means that the follow-up of "Smelting Steel" will be even more exciting. In fact, the end of this episode also raised suspense. If Yi does not die, then he and Bradley are destined to part ways, and readers will naturally look forward to "Forged Steel."

Speaking of this, Ye Hexu also narrowed his eyes, "I think this is very good. As a reader, I am very happy to see such a work. But as a writer, I am really depressed to meet such an opponent." However, Mr. Shen may no longer regard the author of "ic future" as an opponent."

When it came to the end, Ye Hexu looked a little helpless.

Jian Xiaomei was slightly taken aback, and looked at Ye Hexu in surprise, but saw the loneliness on his face, so she comforted softly: "We still have a chance."

"It's hard, don't forget, "The Big Dipper Cup" is about to be released." Ye Hexu put his hands behind his head and leaned back.

...

"The Sage of the West (Part 1)" is an obvious transition plot. Some netizens who claim to be cartoonists talk about it on the Internet.

Point out the many shortcomings of this statement, such as "this statement is not focused", "the rhythm is too slow", "there will be a period of calm after that".

Some readers agree.

"This remark is just borrowed from the popularity of the previous few words."

"The next episode will definitely fall."

"It seems that no one can avoid the dullness after the excitement, not even "Smelting Steel"."

But there were also objections.

"There is something interesting in this statement. You didn't realize that Roy is already doubting the relationship between Bradley and the artificial man."

"What's the matter, I can do the plot of this episode!"

"Blow you!"

...

There were constant discussions on the Internet about "Steel Refining", and the second promotional video of "Soul of Chess: Beidou Cup" was also uploaded to various websites.

Jin Tengguang, Shi Liang, Shi Xingyang, and contestants from Han Country and District 11 appeared one after another.

In addition to the announced seiyuu, another important name-Supervisor Kubo Kanan-also appeared in everyone's field of vision.

"Extra! "Soul of Chess: Beidou Cup" will be released during the Lunar New Year!"

""Soul of Chess" is over! No, you must watch it."

"Looking at it, the quality of the Beidou Cup should be very high in the two MVs announced."

"I hope there is no duplicity. Some big movies are like that. Just watching the promotional film will make you feel that the ticket is worth the money. In the end, the essence is in the promotional film. You don't know until you enter the cinema. Watching the promotional film is equivalent to watching the movie."

"Upstairs, you are wrong. The situation you said is that the script is original, and the readers don't know the plot of the story. Therefore, they are misled by the promotional film. The Beidou Cup is different. The comics have been drawn long ago. Anyone who has read the comics knows how exciting the plot is. Originally, the Beidou Cup was also going to be made into an animation, but the animation was not made because of the boycott of the Han National Chess Academy. After Zhenyu Technology took over, Kubo was hired to produce the animation. Besides, the overseer bartender won't smash his own brand."

"Excuse me, I entered the pit from "Steel Refining". How is the quality of the comic "Soul of Chess"?"

"It's awesome. If you haven't seen it, I suggest you watch "Soul of Chess" first."

"I don't know how to play Go..."

"It's okay, I don't understand, but it looks flammable enough."

...

During the Spring Festival, Zhenyu Technology began to promote "Soul of Chess: Beidou Cup" on various platforms and magazines, and also conducted an exclusive interview with Kubo Kanan on TV.

This is the first time Zhenyu Technology has touched the film industry, and it also attaches great importance to it. In addition, Shen Xin and "Steel Refined" have been really popular recently.

With the help of Zhenyu Technology's vigorous publicity, the popularity of "Soul of Chess" on the Internet has also soared, and it soon appeared in the top 100.

The advertising department and sales department of "ic future" also actively cooperated, not only advertising for "Soul of Chess" on the official website and magazines, but also announced that the full version of "Soul of Chess" will be released on January 15th. Readers can already Order new comics at major bookstores and the official website of "ic future".

The full version is actually the hardcover version. Compared with the ordinary booklet that was first released, the decoration is more sophisticated, and color pages will also be added at the same time. The number is slightly less than the original volume, but the unit price is much more expensive. It can be said that it is a booklet for collection.

Therefore, it is not that a manga that has been published in a single volume has the opportunity to publish a full version. The magazine must make a judgment based on whether the manga has enough sales and popularity.

"Soul of Chess" is undoubtedly the leader in this type of comics.

Not long after this news was released, Zhen Xi, who almost booked the number one player in Huaxia Go, sent a Weibo to recommend this comic to everyone. Afterwards, Huaxia Chess Academy also liked Zhen Xi’s Weibo, and other people, such as Xie Chengbo and Xie Shiqi posted Weibo one after another to support "Soul of Chess".

After one or two years of hard work, Huaxia Go has gradually taken off.

Now, Huaxia Chess players are playing against Han Guo players, and they still win less and lose more. However, the talent pool of Huaxia Go exceeds that of District 11 and Han Country. expectations.

It may not be long before Huaxia Go surpasses Han.

A series of promotions made this two-year-old work come into everyone's field of vision again, and as the Spring Festival approached, the popularity gradually increased.

Many people—including those in the industry—thought that December last year was the peak of Shen Xin's comic career, but now they realize that what they said was a bit early, and Shen Xin's peak in comics is far away.
