Chapter 49 Strategy
"I have objections."
Just when everyone was lamenting Shen Xin's good luck, Yan Yu raised an objection.
"Sister Yan, what are you doing? What a great opportunity this is?" Xiaoli muttered from below.
Although the others didn't say it, the expressions on their faces also showed this meaning.
"This is an excellent publicity opportunity." The editor-in-chief reminded.
"I know, but the reason why readers buy magazines is because there are comics they like in the magazine, and this comic is not necessarily "Y's", so instead of giving a desk calendar of "Y's", it is better to give a mixed A desk calendar of a cartoon character. As for "Y's", when the New Year's Day is approaching, a poster with a calendar printed on it may be more meaningful." Yan Yan said.
The other editors nodded one after another, agreeing with Yan Kun's proposal very much.
Since everyone has something to eat, Yan Qu's request for a poster as a gift is acceptable.
"That's fine, but I think the readers of "Y's" should be looking forward to Yizhi's desk calendar. In fact, they should be looking forward to these 'perks'?" The deputy editor-in-chief speculated, rubbing the stubble on his chin.
The editor-in-chief also nodded regretfully. He also wanted to take a look at the "Y's" calendar, but since Yan Yu offered to "mix various comic characters" in the calendar, he couldn't refuse.
"Ahem... If you really want to release it, it's not impossible." Yan Kun changed the topic, and the topic was turned to the "Y's" desk calendar.
The other editors were still thinking about how to compete for the picture pages of the desk calendar, but Yan Tan's words woke them up.
What's the meaning? Yan Yu was still thinking about the desk calendar?
The editor-in-chief didn't expect Yan Yu to withdraw the topic to the desk calendar again, and asked in confusion, "Then what do you mean?"
"Editor-in-Chief, "Y's" has now been updated to Chapter 5. If we read more quickly, we can finish Chapter 8 before December. Can we release a booklet during Christmas and New Year's Day? Use the desk calendar as a New Year's gift , added to the first booklet, and given as a random gift.”
When the other people present heard Yan Qu's words, they were astonished and looked at Yan Qu in unison.
"As expected of Sister Yan, I said how could she give up such a good opportunity? But what does it mean to be a random gift?" Xiaoli was puzzled.
The editor-in-chief was also lost in thought.
With the achievements of "Y's", it will be a matter of time before the booklet is released. Moreover, from the public opinion on the Internet, it can also be inferred that many netizens are very interested in the booklet. Before, a single book was released, but...
"Why do you give it randomly? Even if you give each copy a simple desk calendar, it won't cost much." The editor-in-chief asked puzzled.
"Editor-in-Chief, if you want to give it as a gift, give it away." Yan Yu explained with a smile on his face, "You think, if some of the comic books have desk calendars and some don't, there will definitely be discussions on the Internet. Things. At that time, "Y's" and "New World" will gain popularity, and their fame will also increase."
"Hmph, a good desk calendar is not small, and it is not the same thickness when put together with a booklet. A blind person knows which one has a desk calendar, and it will definitely be a slow-selling booklet." Li Jiming snorted coldly. .
Yan Yan sighed and shook his head helplessly.
"Everyone knows about scratch cards, right? There is a scratch card in every booklet, and the booklets are sealed in plastic. Therefore, only by buying the booklet and hanging up the scratch card can you know whether you have a chance to get a desk calendar. Everyone has a chance to win the prize, even if some people don't get the calendar, they can only blame themselves for being unlucky."
The people present looked at Yan Tan with surprise.
It sounds simple, but not everyone can think of it.
"There is a downside to this. If someone buys 8 out of 10 copies,
What should I do if I still haven’t drawn it? This will negatively affect "Y's". "The deputy editor-in-chief thought for a long time before putting forward his own views.
"It's also simple - if the online response is better, we can sell this desk calendar separately before these people get disgusted." Yan Tong said the solution.
It was only when the others heard this that they knew what Yan Tong was thinking.
If only a desk calendar is provided for each booklet, only the readers of "Y's" will benefit, and if people start discussing the desk calendar and discussing "Y's" by the way, it is likely to attract readers who were not originally "Y's" .
Yan Yan has only one purpose, which is to maximize the benefits of "Y's" and benefit "New World" by the way. As for other comics, she probably never considered them.
"If this is really done, the cover of the next magazine, posters, desk calendar, and all the colored manuscripts will take about 15 sheets. Can Mr. Shen draw so many colored pages before December?" the editor-in-chief looked up. With Yan Yan.
"Of course I can! I don't think this is a difficult task for Mr. Shen." Yan Yan smiled lightly.
"Since this is the case, you should try your best to push it. Since you are going to do it, you must do your best. Before the booklet is released, we have to warm up one week in advance." The editor-in-chief reminded.
Yan Yan nodded.
"The momentum of "Y's" is very good now, but I still want to remind you, you must be careful, don't follow the old path of "Chasing the Wind Boy", if you get carried away and the progress is too fast, "Y's" may go downhill .” The deputy editor reminded.
"Teacher Shen has shown me the name of the seventh chapter, it's okay. If there is an accident, I will definitely talk to him." Yan Yu said.
After sitting down, Yan Yu showed a smile on his face. All the benefits that "Y's" can get so far have been obtained. Next, when the booklet is released, there should be good sales. At the same time, the "Y's" desk calendar is also a peripheral, no matter how much it sells, it will give Shen Xin a sum of money, which probably won't be too much, but no matter how small a mosquito's legs are, it's still meat, and if it can make a fortune, it's a fortune.
"Sister Yan, the editor-in-chief seems to have something on his mind." Xiaoli whispered into Yan Qu's ear.
Eh?
Yan Yan quickly looked at the editor-in-chief, and sure enough, the editor-in-chief kept tapping on the desktop, as if thinking about something.
The entire conference hall gradually fell silent, except for the sound of the editor-in-chief knocking on the table, there was no noise.
It lasted for a full minute before the editor-in-chief stopped, looked around the editors on both sides, and finally landed on Li Jiming.
"Speaking of "The Boy Who Chased the Wind", isn't it coming to an end?" the editor-in-chief asked.
"Yes. There are two more words, and it will be over." Li Jiming lowered his head, not daring to vent his anger.
Xiaoli snorted coldly and said in a low voice, "It's finally coming to an end."
"It's the end of the year, hurry up and finalize Mr. Gong's new contract. Since the grades are not good, keep the contract money for this year. Look at the grades of the new manga. You have to work hard and let him come up with good works." The editor urged.
Li Jiming lowered his head and didn't make a sound.
"What? Difficulty?" the editor-in-chief asked.
Still did not speak.
"What's going on? Talk." The editor-in-chief was completely angry and slapped the table hard.
Li Jiming suddenly stood up from his seat, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gong is not going to sign a contract with "New World" anymore."
"What? Say it again." The editor-in-chief rubbed his ears, thinking he had heard it wrong.
"Teacher Gong said that he has already had contact with "Dreamer", and he will be serialized on "Dreamer" next year." Li Jiming's face turned red, and the words of his author leaving "New World" can only prove his of incompetence.
Xiaoli pursed her lips and suppressed a smile, while Yan Yu rubbed her forehead.
This is the third person from "New World" who was poached by "Dreamer" in the past six months.
