Big Manga

Qingwan Bookstore opened at seven in the morning. In order to sell "Detective Son" and "Detective Conan", the staff of the bookstore set up a temporary bookstore in the square outside.

This is a practice in the book city. Whenever there are popular works on sale, they will use the square to disperse the flow of people buying, and they will also hold some interesting activities.

Today's activity is: Readers who purchase the two comics of "Detective Conan" and "Detective Sherlock" can draw a lucky draw for free, and have a chance to get a five-day tour of Haitian Villa.

"This activity...ordinary..."

Lin Qi shook her head. This is not a good event, because it is too common and does not bring people any sense of surprise.

"Alright, get ready, Lin Qi..."

The photographer saw that the time was almost up, and told Lin Qi, the reporter straightened his face immediately, pointed the microphone at the camera, and started reporting the scene after the shooting started.

"Good morning everyone..."

The beautiful female voice brought a new day. The staff of the news department at the headquarters of Ninghai TV Station received the video from Qingwan Bookstore and began to get busy in a hurry.

"Cut it here, the morning news is about to be broadcast, just keep the key content, no more than three minutes."

"Have the speeches been prepared? Can you predict the sales of the two?"

"Le Tong, help me, how do you say this report should be written well?"

Guo Letong from Ninghai's animation column group also stood in the news department. He was more sensitive to comics and animation than the people in the news department, so he was invited as a foreign aid.

"Well... the number of readers on both sides is about the same."

Looking at the video sent back from the scene, Guo Letong frowned slightly. From the outside of Qingwan Book City, the sales scenes of "Detective Conan" and "Detective Son" on the left and right, the number of readers gathered is not much different. It's hard for him to judge.

"What about other places?"

He turned his head and said, "I want to know the general situation in other places."

"I'll go and ask right away."

The head of the news department nodded and left in a hurry, he wanted to seize the time.

The morning news of Ninghai TV Station is broadcast by the Broadcasting Department. However, the host and news content are hosted by the news department, and they have to prepare today's manuscript in a few minutes.

"Le Tong, well, other places are very lively." Soon. The Minister of Information ran back and said to Guo Letong: "But overall, "Detective Conan" needs more readers."

"How many "Detective Conan"?"

Guo Letong's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "Then don't think about it, your news is biased towards He Xi... It must be true, this time the booklet "Detective Conan" will sell more than "Detective Son"."

"what!?"

The Minister of Information was taken aback, and said in disbelief: "No way, the sales volume of "Weekly Boutique" is much higher than that of "Weekly Boys". How could "Son of Detective" lose?"

"You should first understand that "Weekly Boutique" is not equal to "Detective Son", and "Weekly Boys" is not equal to "Detective Conan."

Guo Letong explained. The sales of "Detective Son" benefited from all the high-quality comics of "Weekly Best", while "Detective Conan" lost before, and a large part of the reason was that the overall strength of "Weekly Boys" was not as good as "Weekly Best".

By neutralizing the two, "Detective Son" may not be better than "Detective Conan".

"And "Detective Son" is released for the first time, and it has done a lot of publicity in the early stage. It should be the most popular now. "Detective Conan" is already the third volume, and the enthusiasm of readers will not be so hot."

Generally speaking, the day when a manga is released as a single volume for the first time, the enthusiasm of readers will be the highest and the scene will be the most lively. After two releases, the overall popularity will rise. But the heat of the first day of sales will be reduced.

That is to say, the readers of "Detective Conan" are not as crazy as they were when it was first released. Many readers are at home or at work, and they will not be so eager to buy.

And "The Son of Detective" was released for the first time, and it stands to reason that it was released on the same day. Especially this morning, it should be hotter than "Detective Conan".

It didn't, which shows that the overall popularity is not as good as "Detective Conan", and the same is true of sales.

"This... are you sure?"

The Minister of Information is a little dry, if this is true. The outcome of Zhong Xia and He Xi is self-evident. When the news spreads, the impact will be tantamount to earth-shattering.

"It should be right..."

Guo Letong nodded. In fact, he is not a professional cartoonist, so he cannot be completely sure, but he still feels that his guess should be more correct.

"Okay, that's how I'm going to prepare."

The Minister of Information gritted his teeth, turned and left.

So, on the morning news in Ninghai, the hostess added this sentence after broadcasting the sales scene.

"The third volume of "Detective Conan" is released, and the sales scene is still bustling. It is expected to surpass "Detective Son" released on the same day. These two detective-themed comics will give Chinese reasoning fans..."

The host said it very euphemistically. Ninghai TV Station has business cooperation with Zhongxia and Phoenix Company, so they won't say who wins and who loses outright. However, even with this kind of euphemism, people with a discerning eye can see the subtext at a glance .

He Xi - won!

Other media who saw the news were surprised, and some people in the comics industry were also stunned. In fact, before that, people above the eighth floor were optimistic about "The Son of Detective".

Because the sales volume of the magazine "Detective Son" is obviously higher than that of "Detective Conan", even if it is separated by Cheng Yaojin's "One Piece" who suddenly appeared, people still feel that the sales volume of the booklet will not lose.

As soon as this news from Ninghai TV station came out, many people were taken aback, even the reporters who were writing an article saying that "The Son of Detective" would win were also stunned.

"This is impossible!"

""Detective Son" lost to "Detective Conan". Doesn't that mean that Li Xin's two comics lost to He Xi?"

Before the single edition, "Pity", this magazine was released twice, and it beat the "Weekly Boutique" of the week twice, and the sales volume was more than 24 million copies!

"Xi" is the number one comic magazine in China. No one can deny this. Although the media has condemned it a lot, its popularity is close to first-rate novels, while "Weekly Boutique" is still in the second and third ranks Struggling up and down.

And now "Detective Son" can't surpass "Detective Conan"?

"Fuck, He Xi won. Who said the outcome is unknown?"

"He Xi's sales volume is already higher than that of Zhongxia. If "Detective Son" can't even be equal to "Detective Conan", then there is no comparison..."

"Zhong Xia was hanged and beaten by Teacher He Xi?"

"What the hell are they doing!"

Many media outlets were furious, and Zhongxia Company was rich and powerful. This is the last competition, and it is also the most critical time, and everyone is looking forward to it.

They thought that Zhong Xia would use some amazing means to turn the tables, but in the end there was nothing. The giant company withered in the end against He Xi——

"When did capitalists become so kind? It's unreasonable!"

"Hasn't Zhongxia been very straightforward with his opponents before? I haven't heard of any methods. No matter how powerful He Xi is, he is only one person. The Phoenix Company has no background. Why would Zhongxia compete with them honestly?"

"My brain is pumped, Zhongxia Company will definitely be missed by the opponent in the future!"

Chinese people love saving face very much. The Zhongxia Company allowed He Xi to walk over their heads. If this kind of thing spread, it would be no wonder that the companies that were hostile to it would not laugh at it in the future.

However, the reporters were complaining, but Yang Liang, who was in charge of Zhongxia, was very helpless. He felt that he had tried his best.

"Our publicity expenses are five times that of the Phoenix Company...Although I don't know how Ninghai TV calculated the results. But they made no mistakes. According to preliminary statistics, it is difficult for "Detective Son" to surpass "Detective Conan" in sales ..."

Wang Zhe was reading the report in his office, Yang Liang's face did not change, this result was not his surprise, but there was still a touch of bitterness in his heart.

"There is no miracle... This is Li Xin, and our limit..."

Yangliang recalled the past two months. It can be said that they are not careless, if there is no regret, the world will be full of praise for them.

Pushing a newcomer from scratch to the pinnacle of Huaxia comics in two months, from an ordinary graduate to a hot comic star, worth tens of millions, this star-making speed is enough to amaze everyone!

But what's wrong with this world. This meant that everything Zhongxia created would be his dowry.

In the past two months, Zhongxia has purposefully guided and controlled the media's speeches, which is now the limit. In a few days, as long as the sales of "Detective Son" and "Detective Conan" become clear, the media will have a bad wind.

At that time, no one will notice what Zhong Xia has created. Instead, he would cheer for He Xi and be shocked by his victory over Zhong Xia. It can be said that through this incident, He Xi will be promoted to the altar, and his position will not be shaken in the future, unless...unless he leaves Huaxia immediately.

He Xi left Huaxia, even if it took half a year, Zhongxia and other comic companies had the opportunity to launch new cartoonists and gain a firm foothold.

Otherwise, the shadow of He Xi would hang over the Huaxia comics world, and it would be even more difficult for anyone who wanted to make a newcomer famous.

"Why didn't Duke Anthony make a move..."

Yang Liang thought of the chairman's words, and a small flame of hope ignited in his heart.

Su Hua

Anthony took a special car to the airport.

"Your Excellency, the trajectories of the people who are following you have been found out..."

Annie reported beside him, Anthony opened his eyes, and his eyes became sharp: "Well done, Annie, please help me arrange a substitute, I want to contact He Xi in person."

He stayed in Suhua for a long time, but in the end he didn't get the old lady's consent.

"My grandson is also a Chinese until his death!"

The old man was unwilling to let his grandson go, but Anthony did not change his original intention. Whether to go or not, this matter is not the old man, but He Xi.

There is an old saying in China that is called "Li before the soldiers..." Anthony personally came to inform the old man that this is a ritual, and since the ritual has no effect, he can only use "soldiers".

Soldiers approaching the city—directly go to He Xi.
