"The release has been delayed, the sales have not decreased, and the sales of "Weekly Boy" have been successful in major bookstores!"

"Detective Conan has launched a new character, and the myth of the protagonist has caused a lot of dissatisfaction!"

"Gorgeous and exquisite, shocking, what a pity to show the edge, vow to use the most handsome thief to fight "Sherlock"!"

Several newspapers were placed on Alice's table, and without reading the contents, Alice understood that Meng had succeeded.

The impact of the delay was far less than the sensation caused by this issue of "Detective Conan", and the whole city of Ninghai set off a rush to buy, and some booksellers even sold it privately at a higher price, but it was still sold out in one day.

The editors of the editorial department congratulated Alice with envy, and even Sun Yang asked her to hand over a letter from Mr. Tomato.

The letter is not encrypted, and Alice can see the contents, in which Tomato praises the new plot of "Detective Conan", and says that he is a new fan of "Detective Conan", hoping that he can beat "Sherlock".

Who is Mr. Tomato?

When Alice took over Meng Shu, he heard Ye Xiong specifically mention this veteran cartoonist, and it is said that he has a great prejudice against Meng Shu, and Ye Xiong asked Alice to pay attention not to affect Meng Shu. However, it has only been a long time since Mr. Tomato has become a fan of Meng Huo!

Meng was using comics to gain recognition from others, which made Alice feel a sense of pride.

But when the entire editorial department was excited, editor-in-chief Ye Xiong sat at his desk and frowned.

"Editor-in-chief, are you not satisfied with the sales of this issue?"

Alice asked strangely.

"No, sales are fine." Ye Xiong shook his head, looked up and said, "I'm just thinking about Meng ...... It's a pity that it is not appropriate for the teacher to launch the role of Kidd, his charm is too great and it is easy to steal the limelight of the protagonist. ”

He originally wanted to say Meng Huo, but then changed his words, and now the editorial department uses a pen name to refer to Meng Huo, which can prevent the risk of leakage.

"I don't think I have to worry about that."

Alice smiled: "I talked to Mr. He Xi, he has no intention of putting Kidd into the main line, Kidd's positioning is a special character that occasionally appears, his biggest charm is mystery, why don't teachers destroy this sense of mystery." ”

Maintaining mystery creates a special beauty, and Kidd the Strange Thief of the original book is such a character. He is elusive and has an unattainable chic, and readers don't know who he is, what he looks like, where he came from, and they will look forward to his gorgeous appearance again.

To put it simply, Kidd has little influence on Detective Conan, but it will have a great impact on readers.

"If the editor-in-chief is not at ease, I will go to get the original manuscript of the collection from Mr. Ho's house in a while, and then I can see Kidd's positioning." Alice continued to add.

Ye Xiong nodded: "That's fine." ”

"By the way, you can help me remind the teacher of one thing."

……

"Don't draw too pretty?"

At noon, Meng Shu received a message from Alice and couldn't help but wonder if Ye Xiong's head was funny.

Other cartoonists want to make their works look better, but Ye Xiong is good, but he wants Meng to draw too beautiful!

"It's not what you think."

Alice smiled bitterly and quickly explained that Ye Xiong meant to let Meng Huo keep the usual comic fragments, and no longer need to draw that kind of comic picture that exceeds the specifications, that is, the last one of the first episode, the promotional poster and the strange thief Kidd this time.

"What are you doing?"

Meng Shu was a little unhappy: "Those pictures were drawn by me with great difficulty, isn't the effect good?" ”

He had a feeling that his efforts had been denied.

"It's not bad, it's too good."

Alice shook her head, she took out a few reports from her satchel and spread them on the table: "You see, this is part of the results of a few months of reader surveys. ”

Meng picked up the report curiously, and Alice continued.

"One of the strange things we found in the survey on how readers liked Detective Conan was that more than 50 percent of readers were attracted by the picture in the first episode."

"They see it from magazines, from the Internet, from friends, and that's why they're interested in buying magazines. It is undeniable that "Detective Conan" is of high quality to retain them, but without that picture, the readership of this manga would have been greatly reduced at the beginning, and it may take a long time to become popular. ”

"Are you exaggerating?"

"No, original comics are less popular than you think."

Alice's expression was indifferent, if a market is bleak, then even if high-quality works appear, it will take time to precipitate and ferment, this rule was broken by Meng Yu.

"Not only that, but we did a survey of your poster, and the results were surprising, many people who haven't seen Detective Conan plan to buy a single book, and the reason is that because the poster is so beautiful, they are willing to spend money to collect it."

"And yesterday's release of Weekly Boys, the third time you've shown that talent."

Alice paused, a smile on her lips: "Guess what's going on?" ”

"What?"

"Three hours." Alice stretched out three fingers and said with a smile: "We printed more than 300,000 copies in advance, but it only took three hours for Ninghai City to sell out all of a week's inventory." ”

"Let me tell you one thing, the most popular magazines in the past, the publisher and the bookstore owner will leave some for sale in the next few days, so you can go to the door early the next morning and have a chance to buy it."

However, as soon as the strange thief Kidd came out this time, the whole Ninghai was boiling, and those senior readers would rather spend more money to force out the bookstore's inventory, and the bookstore owners secretly sold the magazine at a high price, and now they are pressuring the publishing house to print it.

Speaking of the reason, of course, it is because of the charm of the monster thief Kidd, but how did the charm of the monster thief Kidd come out?

Mysterious, gorgeous, none of this is the root, the root should be the stunning image on the cover, which shapes the reader's first impression of Kidd the Monster Thief. And this impression will be perfected by the plot to show Kidd's charm to the fullest.

“……”

After reading the report, Meng Shu thought for a moment.

"That's not right! That's a good thing, according to you, why don't you let me paint? ”

"The editor-in-chief doesn't mean that you don't paint all the time, but that you choose carefully." Alice smiled slightly: "We are worried that readers will get used to it if they read too much, you can't spoil them, the fewer of them, the better, as long as they can appear at critical moments." ”

"You're going to turn it into something like a magic weapon."

As soon as she explained this, Meng Huo finally understood. However, it rarely appeared in a flash of inspiration, and even if he wanted to paint more, he couldn't help it.

What are Ye Xiongbai's thoughts, isn't the most important thing now a single book?
