Big Manga

Chapter 214: The Doomed Loser

Zhongxia Company is going to launch a new magazine, but Alice only knows that the name of the magazine is "Weekly Boutique", other news is still a mystery, but fortunately, this mystery will have an answer that night.

"In the evening, Zhongxia Company has a press conference. Let's watch it together." After eating, Alice suggested, "How about I come and pick you up tonight?"

Meng Huo agreed, but when Alice picked Meng Huo up, he also brought Tomato and Teacher Hua Meng's assistants with him.

"I love it, we want to see it too."

Teacher Hua Meng said with a smile on her face.

"Oh..." Alice frowned slightly, and opened the car door to let a few people get in the car.

"Where is the location of the press conference?"

On the way, Meng Huo asked.

"Zhongxia Building." Alice replied: "It is the headquarters of Zhongxia Company in Ninghai now."

When they passed by, the press conference had already started. Alice got a ticket from somewhere, gave the ticket to the doorman and walked in. Meng Huo attracted more attention. He did some make-up beforehand, but no one recognized him.

Walking into the press conference site, the scene inside made Mr. Tomato sigh.

"As expected of a big company, there are many people."

The conference site was the size of an auditorium, but now it was densely packed with people, most of them were reporters and media, and there were a few people who didn't know whether they were cartoonists or readers.

"Let it go, let it go!"

Teacher Tomato opened the way ahead, the auditorium was already full, even the aisles were filled with people. They squeezed from the crowd to a place with a clearer view, and Alice wiped her sweat and complained, "Why are they selling so many tickets when they have nothing to do?"

Meng Huo felt the same way, saying that he had no seat. Why does Zhongxia Company sell so many tickets? It's so crowded. It gives a bad impression. But on the other hand, such a crowded scene would make the reporters even more excited, perhaps it was a scene deliberately created by Zhong Xia.

"Hey buddy, where are we talking now?"

Tomato asked a stranger.

"You have just arrived? Just now, Editor-in-Chief Wang introduced some business progress of Zhongxia Company,

Including channel effects on copyrights such as animation and movies, and the launch of "Weekly Boutique" next week, this magazine will be released every Saturday. "

The magazines released on Saturday are not part of "Zhongxia Daily". The Weekly Collection is a completely independent new magazine, and from the name, it should be even better. The stranger introduced Tomato. It turned out that the press conference had not been held for long. Excluding the business introduction at the beginning, it was now the reporter's questioning session.

When Meng Huo and the others arrived, the first reporter asked a question.

"Excuse me, Editor-in-Chief Wang, does the word "Boutique" appear in the name of "Weekly Boutique", does this mean that it is of higher quality than "Zhongxia Rikan"? And we know Phoenix's "Weekly Youth" and "Weekly Girl" Sales have increased recently, may I ask if this incident has put pressure on you, which led to the launch of "Weekly Boutique"?"

This question is sharp. Meng Huo looked at Wang Zhe, who was once the editor-in-chief of Longteng Comics, sitting in the center of the front desk.

""Weekly Boutique" is better than "Zhongxia Daily", there is no doubt about it. "Weekly Boutique" has two rules for inclusion. One is to choose among the top three comics in "Zhongxia Daily" every day so far. Readers Only with more than 3 million votes in a single week can it be listed as a serial candidate for "Weekly Boutique."

With just one sentence from Wang Zhe, the audience erupted in exclamation.

"Top three every day?"

"No, no... the number of votes for a single three million is amazing!"

"There aren't many comics that are up to par?"

The average circulation of Zhongxia Daily is close to 20 million copies. It is the best-selling comic magazine in China, but readers who buy the magazine may not necessarily vote.

Although every magazine has free survey postcards, the number of people who are willing to send letters will definitely not exceed half of the number of buyers, that is, less than 10 million people. And 3 million votes is a 30% turnout rate.

This proportion of votes, even for the top three works in the "Zhongxia Daily" every day, is rarely achieved.

"One-third of the turnout rate..." There was a commotion in the venue. The reporters lowered their heads to record Wang Zhe's speech. The rest of the people were also shocked. Said: "Ms. He Xi's votes are more than 60% of "Weekly Boys" every week. The standard of Zhongxia Boutique is too low."

Of course, the stranger next to him didn't agree with this sentence, he shook his head and said.

"Mr. He Xi is an exception. No one in Phoenix can compare with him. But there are many excellent cartoonists in Zhongxia Company. Thousands of cartoonists work together. You don't need to think about it. The competition is very fierce. If Teacher He Xi is in Zhongxia , it may not be possible to have a 30% turnout rate."

Meng Huo frowned slightly.

The difficulty of being a candidate for "Midsummer Essence" is indeed very high, he admits this, but if he is in Midsummer, he will definitely get 30% of the votes.

Of course, he didn't say that.

In front, Wang Zhe didn't stop talking.

"You said that the two magazines of Phoenix Company can threaten us, I want to deny this..." He said to the reporter who asked the question: "We have conducted a market evaluation, and the sales volume of "Weekly Youth" is not as good as that of Zhongxia Daily, and the gap is close Twice, this is not a threat at all."

"The quality of "Weekly Youth" has improved, but it has not threatened "Zhongxia Daily", and it is even more impossible to threaten "Weekly Boutique"..."

"We decided on this magazine a long time ago, in order to open up the market and set up a vane for high-quality comics for everyone!"

"The comics in "Weekly Excellence" are all absolute high-quality products. Our company serializes hundreds of works every week. So far, only four have met the requirements for candidates."

Wang Zhe said that there were four alternates, which shocked the reporters even more. "Zhongxia Daily" was released for five days. Doesn't it mean that less than one manga is selected every day on average?

"Is Miss Qin Ya one of them?"

A reporter suddenly asked, Qin Ya, this female cartoonist has been sitting to the left of Wang Zhe. Although she didn't speak, she was very eye-catching, and there were always cameras and cameras pointed at her to shoot.

"No..." Qin Ya smiled, and she said, "I'm not in those four books."

"Qin Ya is different. I just mentioned one qualification for being a candidate." Wang Zhe interjected and explained, "We have another criterion to enter "Weekly Boutique"!"

"What standard?"

The eyes of the reporters were diverted again.

"Our Zhongxia company has launched a new signing system, the Great God contract. Cartoonists who sign this contract can directly enter the "Weekly Boutique" without going through the market test."

"Great god-level contract?" This fresh vocabulary made the reporters curious: "What is that, I haven't heard of it, Zhongxia now has a god-level cartoonist?"

"There is one..." Wang Zhe narrowed his eyes: "We already have a great cartoonist in Zhongxia. He hasn't made his debut yet, but his strength has been recognized by all the senior management of the company. Next week he will appear in "Weekly Boutique" "Launch a new series..."

"Our god-level cartoonist is even stronger than the hottest cartoonist He Xi... Although he has not made his debut, Teacher He Xi has already agreed to use two comics to fight him with one."

Suddenly, the venue fell silent.

"Teacher He Xi?"

Who is Teacher He Xi? He is said to be the most powerful cartoonist in China, and no one in the room objected. However, such a cartoonist actually wants to use two books to fight others with one?

The reporters were amazed, and then became a sensation. Some excitedly recorded in their notes, some chatted noisyly, and some stood up and asked Wang Zhe about the identity of the great cartoonist.

"Damn it, it's awesome!"

"It's so powerful that it made Mr. He Xi take the initiative to admit defeat. Who is that great manga artist?"

Around Meng Huo and the others, the crowd began to boil, and the stranger excitedly patted Teacher Tomato on the shoulder and said that another god-man had appeared, but Tomato didn't care. He and Teacher Hua Meng looked at the teacher with shocked eyes Meng Huo.

They didn't know about Anthony. After hearing what Wang Zhe said, they really thought that Meng Huo was going to use two comics to fight against the mysterious master cartoonist.

Meng Huo has always been invincible, and his current behavior made Tomato and the others a little unbelievable.

"How come, teacher, are you kidding..."

Meng Huo's face turned cold. He stared at Wang Zhe in front of him, but he didn't expect that the other party would tell the story.

"I don't know that cartoonist..."

He said something coldly, and Tomato and Huameng were relieved. Meng Huo was not lying, he really didn't know the cartoonist.

And he is very unhappy now, damn, Zhong Xia actually used him as an advertisement!

This is really shameless, the condition was clearly put forward by Zhongxia, but he said it as if Meng Huo asked for it himself. And the key point was that Meng Huo was going to use two books to fight Anthony. After being told by Wang Zhe, his opponent immediately became that great cartoonist.

"Tsk..." Beside Meng Huo, Alice pinched her fingers tightly, sparks appeared in her eyes, Zhong Xia's method was not illegal, but it was deliberately misleading the media and reporters.

"The elite of Zhongxia must come out. What is a master? He Xi can make He Xi admit defeat before debuting. This is the elite of Zhongxia—a cartoonist at the level of a god!"

"Breaking news: He Xi's myth has been shattered, this time he will never be wrong! He took the initiative to admit defeat, yes, he will use two comics to fight against a newcomer cartoonist!"

"Where is Zhongxia's great god-level cartoonist, we are looking forward to it!"

Without even thinking about it, Alice knew that the newspapers in the next few days would be covered by such news.

Zhongxia Company took He Xi as a stepping stone, and easily made a cartoonist who hadn't debuted popular yet.

The manga has not yet been released—everyone feels that He Xi has surrendered.

He Xi used two books against others with one, even if the total sales win, the media will definitely not admit that he is doomed to lose! (To be continued..)
