Yin Jun is aware of the trajectory of manga sales in Japan, but at the same time, he is also very confident in his "Kirin Weekly". Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It's just that Tokuma Bookstore's request for 6 million copies per issue still surprised Yin Jun.

I didn't expect them to be so bold.

This was a bit unexpected by Yin Jun, but Yin Jun had no intention of refusing.

It's not that every manga weekly is paid for and then shipped, and it's a loss for Tokuma Shoten if it can't be sold, but Yin Jun feels that if he wants to sell 9 manga serials of his own, he can't sell 6 million copies, can Japan still be called the country of manga?

What's more, there isn't that much entertainment in Japan right now.

is similar to Xiangjiang, a slightly better TV series can make them fascinated and bring out national goddesses and male gods one by one.

If around 2010, AKB48, a group that subverts idol groups, appears, hundreds of girls sing and dance, you like it, where do you think they are superstars and goddesses?

The less entertaining it is, the better the sales of books like comics, which can make people happy to read.

Especially when the manga itself is very powerful.

So, Yin Jun nodded and agreed: "2 million copies will be 2 million copies, and when the time comes, we will negotiate with the new contract to see which time is suitable for additional issuance." ”

"Good!"

Tokuma was relieved.

In his opinion, the two most important things of cooperation with Kirin Culture - determining the exclusive sales contract and increasing the number of sales - have been successfully completed, which is a bit incredible.

He thought that he would pay a lot of price, but Yin Jun didn't mention it at all, but he was a bit of a villain.

After saying this, he brought up another, which can be regarded as a more important request, "This "Kirin Weekly" has decided to supplement it, Ah Jun, how about your single book? Each single book only publishes one episode every two months, except for "Cherry Maruko", there is no way to achieve an episode every two months, and the sales volume of 2 million copies per episode is too conservative? This single book is not as good as "Kirin Weekly", this is going to be oriented to the world! As far as I know, it seems that Europe and the United States have already begun to ask for an increase in the number?"

The single book of Kirin Culture is 9 serialized comics and one "Resident Evil" that is not suitable for serialization.

Ten comic books, each with a distribution of 1 million copies in Asia, and a total of 8 million copies in Europe and the United States to Pearson, add up to 2 million copies sold.

However, the number of books released in Europe and the United States is not even, and Pearson Group feels that European and American book fans prefer "Transformers", "Resident Evil" and "Tomb Raider", these three books will have 5 million copies, and the remaining 7 books will only have a total of 3 million copies.

But since the launch in February, Pearson's strong distribution network has already shown its might.

Because they were behind the original release time, they sold one more episode than the Asian market in the first few months.

Only 2 months later, the third round of release has passed, and 10 manga have been out of stock one after another.

In particular, "Transformers", "Resident Evil", "Tomb Raider", "Conan" and "Saint Seiya", these five manga singles are very popular with European and American comic fans, and by the second episode, they were basically sold out in a week.

Originally, Pearson Group valued the first three books, but I didn't expect "Conan" and "Saint Seiya" to be so popular.

Even the remaining five books are also sought after by many comic fans, which leads the people in the distribution department of Pearson Group to think that they should further increase sales and strike while the iron is hot.

So, they asked Kirin Culture to buy another 10 manga with a total of 5 million copies per episode.

They feel that they have a lot of credit, so the conditions are still the same as before.

For such people who can't see the market clearly, Le Yiling directly told them that there is no plan to increase printing in Kylin Culture recently, so let them wait.

"Europe and the United States don't mention it for the time being, they have only released three episodes, and they can't know the real reaction of the market at all, unlike the Xiangjiang, Baodao, Japan and South Korea markets, which have already been tested by weekly comics. Yin Jun said, "But in addition to "Kirin Weekly", the market we have cultivated is almost mature, and I also plan to print an additional 500,000 copies of a comic per episode, and see how the market reacts." ”

"Ah Jun, you are really conservative and cautious. Tokuma sighed, "If it had been someone else, I would have been unable to resist expanding a long time ago." Besides, whether it is "Kirin Weekly" or a single book, it is a system in which dealers are responsible, and the profit and loss pressure is on our side, not yours. ”

"It is precisely because the pressure is on everyone's side that I should consider you more, and I will not ruin your good future and all of you to make money because of greedy for temporary interests. Yin Jun smiled slightly, "The extra 500,000 copies, since Japan is our largest market, so it is Mr. Tokuma, you make a request first, and then talk about it specifically." ”

"I see. ”

Tokuma Kang fast jaw first road.

Compared with "Kirin Weekly", in fact, the earning power of a single book is not so prominent.

The main reason is that it has one episode every two months, and the "Kirin Weekly" has 8 issues in two months.

The money-making effect is not a tier.

But Tokuma Yasukuai also refused to let go of such a piece of fat, no matter how generous he was, he was also a businessman, and there was no reason not to make money when he saw it.

He has already decided, and he will have a meeting tonight to decide who to send to Xiangjiang to negotiate with Le Yiling of Qilin Culture, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

It has always been Tokuma Yasushi who is making requests, and now his request is satisfied, and Yin Jun also begins to talk about what he wants to talk about.

"Mr. Tokuma, do you still go to China often now?" Yin Jun asked, sipping the tea that had been brewed again.

"Go!" After finishing the conversation, Tokuma said in a relaxed tone, "There are many of my friends there, Huhai Fine Arts Film Studio, Huajing Film Factory, Huaxia TV Station...... Wait, I'm very familiar with these entertainment aspects. It's still very backward there, so I want to help them develop as much as I can. ”

"As far as I know, every time you go, you will support them with a lot of equipment and funds, right?" Yin Jun said.

"Hehe, they can't buy a lot of things there, but Japan has them, so I'll bring some with them. Tokuma sighed, "Their funds are also very short, and all kinds of productions are waiting to be fed, even if I fund some, it will be a drop in the bucket, and it will not be worth it at all...... Oh, and by the way, since we've been working together on the comic release, I can give them a little bit more. ”

Now how difficult it is for TV stations and film studios in the mainland, Yin Jun knows better than Tokuma Yasuai.

In his previous life, Tokuma Kangkuai donated a lot of equipment and money to Huaxia TV, but the problem is that Huaxia TV is so big, and equipment and money are needed everywhere, so the cameras that fell in the TV drama production center, that is, two, are still old and replaced by news channels.

Therefore, a director with such old qualifications as Yang Jie can only go around the world with a video camera and shoot "Journey to the West" that Yin Jun will not get bored of watching dozens of times.

Yin Jun said lightly: "From next time, Mr. Tokuma will go to China to donate, whatever he wants to donate, how much money he donates, he will count it as my share, I will take as much as you take, and we will give double shares together." ”

"Oh?"

Tokuma Yasushi was surprised, and immediately woke up, "Okay, don't worry, I'll tell them your mind." ”

He knew that Yin Jun was doing business in Xiangjiang, and now the British government and China are not so harmonious, and if Yin Jun blatantly supports the mainland, it is very likely to be suppressed.

For such a secret support for the mainland, Tokuma Yasukuai naturally does not feel that Yin Jun is not brave enough.

Donating it, albeit privately, is much better than nothing, right?

Just like the Japanese, countless people of this generation feel that Japan has committed an unpardonable sin against China, but how many people are willing to atone for their sins?

"I don't need to tell them just yet. Yin Jun shook his head and said, "In a few years, when the time is ripe, I will also have the ability to help my motherland without constraints, and it will not be too late to say it." ”

"There will be a day like this soon. Tokuma nodded vigorously.

Hearing Yin Jun say this, he admired this young man even more.

Since he started making money, Yin Jun has long wanted to help the poor compatriots in the mainland, but he has never had the opportunity.

Wei Xiaofan represents him in the mainland, and except for some sales, it is really difficult to donate.

Otherwise, in this Xiangjiang government, which is almost controlled by the British, there will definitely be countless people who will stumble on him and even blatantly suppress him.

Don't doubt it, even a hero like Mr. Huo would dare to suppress him to death, let alone you, a fledgling young man.

Yin Jun didn't mean that he cared about his family property, but he knew how high his future height was, and it was absolutely impossible to give up so many once-in-a-lifetime opportunities in the future for the sake of the present.

Once he is now severely suppressed by the Xiangjiang government, how can Yin Jun still do his own primitive accumulation? How can he rely on these accumulations to make money and develop all over the world, so that he can make greater undertakings in the mainland in the future, thus benefiting more people?

For the sake of these broad futures in the future, the teenager must be willing to keep a low profile now, and he must be low-key.

Therefore, he didn't even dare to entrust Huo Yingdong, Li Chaoren, and Bao Yugang to help donate, but went to Japan in a roundabout way, and only then did he find Tokuma Yasushi to help donate.

Be careful, there's always nothing wrong with that.

But thinking about it, Yin Jun is indeed a little aggrieved, if our country is strong, who would dare to suppress himself to do legitimate business?

Therefore, only when the country becomes stronger and stronger, can businessmen in Xiangjiang and even overseas be more respected!
