Chapter 706: Line up in the rain

At noon, the rain did not stop.

However, as soon as the school bell rang, Lin Dong and the others rushed out with umbrellas in their hands. There are three bookstores outside the school that sell weekly comics, but the quantity is very small, and you usually have to rush ahead of other students to have a chance.

This time they made preparations before the end of get out of class, and the teacher didn't procrastinate, so they ran into three bookstores separately.

"Boss, do you have "Weekly Boys?" Lin Dong asked out of breath while holding an umbrella. As he asked, his eyes were already looking at the weekly booth in the store.

"It's sold out, you don't need to read it." The bookstore owner closed the newspaper in his hand and said cheerfully: "You want to read Mr. He Xi's new comics, right? Those two are gone. If you want to buy It’s better to go to the Big Book City to buy it.”

Lin Dong opened his eyes wide: "Sold out? How is it possible! We were the first to rush out!"

He heard other sounds of surprise, and couldn't help but look behind him. At some point, a few girls had rushed in, and they were also panting. It seemed that after hearing their conversation, the girls looked disappointed—obviously They also wanted to buy Weekly Shonen.

And there are several groups of people running towards the school gate.

The owner of the bookstore looked outside the door, and raised his voice, "You don't need to come, "Weekly Boys" has been sold out, and around nine o'clock, nearby residents came to buy it, and there should be no bookstores around. "

These bookstores are set up next to the school, and the general customers are students, but occasionally, the surrounding residents will also patronize.

"Lin Dong, I don't have any here!"

"Me too!"

Friends from the other two stores gathered over, and Lin Dong gritted his teeth: "It's unlucky, it's raining again. It's out of stock again!"

"Hey! "Weekly Boys" is gone!?"

"It's a pity, I ran away for nothing, and I plan to watch it at noon!"

The other students who came to the store complained a few words, then turned and left one after another, and the girls behind Lin Dong also turned back with regret. One of them also comforted: "Don't be discouraged, we will definitely be able to buy it this afternoon."

Lin Dong also turned around in disappointment and wanted to leave.

"I advise you to buy it elsewhere if you want to buy it now." At this time, the bookstore owner suddenly said: "I heard that there is no reprinting this time.

And Mr. He Xi's new comics are so good, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy them this afternoon. "

Lin Dong's group and the girls stopped, and they all looked at the boss in surprise.

"Boss, what you said is a bit too exaggerated. Even if there is no reprint, there are a lot of "Weekly Boys" on sale, and you can usually buy them in the next few days!"

"That's right, and it's raining again today, so there must be fewer people buying it. You can buy it tomorrow!"

"That's a normal situation." The boss shook his head and said, "Every time Mr. He Xi releases a new work, the sales will increase. Once "Soul of Chess" comes out, the sales of "Weekly Youth" will definitely increase. It can definitely be sold within a day. Finish……"

He pointed to the smart TV hanging on the wall: "Look!"

The TV was hung in the back of the shop, and the children could only turn around to see it when they walked a little. Lin Dong opened his mouth blankly, and saw that the TV was quietly broadcasting the noon news of Ninghai City. What was shown on the TV screen was the scene of the Great Book City, densely packed crowds standing in the square holding umbrellas, one after another.

"This, this is... to buy "Weekly Boys?"

Lin Dong asked in disbelief.

"That's right. It's the rush hour for get off work, and many people are running out to buy comics." The boss sighed, "Look at the lines that are more than ten meters long. If you don't buy them, can you still buy them?"

The children didn't dare to say "yes", a girl was so surprised that she even dropped her umbrella on the ground, and she picked it up in a hurry. Then asked: "Why is this so, why are there so many people queuing up!"

It just doesn't make sense. Even though it was off-duty time, it was obviously raining heavily. How could there be so many people queuing up outside the book city with umbrellas? Not to mention comics, this kind of grand sale is also rare in novels and other works of art!

"Impossible, this is public relations! This must be a scam!"

Yanjing, the president of the basketball association noticed the scene of the noon news report on Ninghai TV station. He stood up in shock. His first feeling was that this was an illusion deliberately created by Phoenix Company—how could Go comics have such an overwhelming sales scene? ?

"Yes, this must be a scam, a scam!"

The news flashed by, and the chairman turned on the computer in a hurry. As soon as he went to Weibo, he saw many representatives of the same industry scolding, scolding Phoenix Company for putting on a show, and Ninghai TV station should not broadcast such a scene.

It seems that everyone's eyes are discerning... The president of the basketball association heaved a sigh of relief, and then looked at the official Weibo of Ninghai TV, which was besieged by everyone.

"Please calm down. It is impossible for our TV station to cooperate with Phoenix Company to make a show. This is common news. In fact, we have also discussed not to broadcast it, but our TV station is obliged to provide Ninghai people with news that they care about. This is because A big event happening in the city and we have no reason to cover it up."

The president of the basketball association was stunned for a moment, the statement from Ninghai TV station exploded in his mind like a lightning bolt, and shattered his luck.

That's right, Ninghai TV Station, if it is said that the people who don't want to report this news last, they should be the first. A while ago, the head of the basketball association made a special survey of the comics industry in order to please He Xi. He knew very well that Ninghai TV was on the side of Zhongxia Company.

In this report, Ninghai TV Station will find it more difficult than others. They must want to cover up this matter, but if there are really so many people queuing up to buy He Xi's new comic "Soul of Chess" in Ninghai City in the heavy rain, then If this news is not reported, the trust of the people of Ninghai City in the TV station will be shaken.

So the TV stations don't erase the fact because of prejudice or hostility, they report this scene, which means-"Is this all true!?"

"Is there really so many people standing in the rain and queuing to buy Weekly Shonen?"

The president of the basketball association sat on the chair, he couldn't believe this conclusion, if it was other cartoons, he would believe it, but this is a Go cartoon! What is Go? It is something that is forgotten, not popular, and few people can understand it!

How could there be such a lively buying scene in this comic?

"I don't believe in evil!"

Annoyed, he wanted to close the website, but suddenly saw a Weibo statement from a person he followed—Liu Yurong, the president of the Volleyball Association, on the Weibo page.

"After watching "Soul of Chess", I know what He Xi is; after watching "Soul of Chess", I know what Go is!"

Liu Yurong felt very uncomfortable at this moment, he had never felt so uncomfortable at this moment.

In the morning, he didn't think much of He Xi's new comics release, but he was better, he didn't sneer on the Internet like everyone else. Instead, I found a time and went to the bookstore to buy a copy of "Weekly Boys".

He finished reading the first three episodes before lunch, but after reading it, he couldn't even eat lunch.

"I'm uncomfortable!" He said to his wife like this: "Why did I go blind at that time? At that time, Teacher He Xi clearly appeared at the Tokyo volleyball match. Why didn't I seize the opportunity to meet him? Even if It's a chance, and I should seize it!"

""Soul of Chess", this is not the kind of Go comics we imagined at all! A rough person like me who doesn't know Go at all is very encouraged after reading it. Three chapters, this is three chapters! I have always despised Go , Now Teacher He Xi draws it, but I think it is very handsome, unique and charming!"

"It's natural for it not to be hot?"

Liu Yurong was furious and wanted to fire his vice president, what kind of advertisement, what was not enough money, such an inconspicuous little thing like Go can be reborn under He Xi's hands, the name of China's number one cartoonist is absolutely well-deserved!

What if he drew volleyball instead of Go? Volleyball is already one of the most popular sports in the country. If He Xi processed it and released a comic that will be serialized for a year or two, let alone 400 million, even 500 million would be worth it!

He Xi's comics are terrible. If "Soul of Chess" develops according to the quality of these three episodes, it can completely subvert readers' views on Go! (to be continued)
