Chapter 439: "The Legend of the Galactic Singer" is released
On November 6, "Madoka Magical Girl" was broadcast; On November 8th, the serialization of "The Legend of the Galaxy Singer" began - Zhongxia Company chose to announce the news of the new comic on November 7th, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
The news of the launch of the new comic by 'Angel' has attracted the attention of many media, and this news has cooled down a lot of the popularity brought by the seventh episode of "Madoka Magical Girl". At the same time, it also gave Qin Ya a hard punch the day before the launch of her new comics, and when "Weekly Girl" was released on November 8, almost all the newspapers related to the comics were dominated by the news of "Angel".
On the day of the serialization of "The Legend of the Galaxy Singer", it was supposed to be a time of great attention, but it turned out to be deserted in the newspaper.
However, even so, Qin Ya was not Zhongxia's main target. Their new manga was launched at the same time as "Dragon and Tiger", and the serialization speed was also released once a week, apparently ...... Zhongxia's purpose is to deal with He Xi, and they chose to announce it on November 7, which is more like a sarcasm of Qin Ya.
This is indeed an irony, as early as when Phoenix Company just announced the launch of two new works, Ding Yanghua found Jiang Tianshi with anxiety.
But he didn't expect Jiang Tianshi to be disdainful of Qin Ya: "What kind of green onion is she, why should I care about her?" ”
This second young man of the Jiang family didn't take Qin Ya in his eyes at all, although Ding Yanghua really wanted 'Angel' to launch two comics to hinder Qin Ya and what a pity, but Jiang Tianshi refused, the core and master of 'Angel' was him. Ding Yanghua didn't have the right to call the shots, and the other members of the 'Angel' obviously didn't want to confront Qin Ya.
The purpose of their gathering is to defeat He Xi to become the number one in Huaxia, if they go to deal with Qin Ya, won't it make them lose their worth?
"'Flame Boy' is about to win. Why do you need to care about Qin Ya? ”
"It's a pity that the new comics are looking for a way back. Later, "Madoka Magical Girl" lost. He can also say that he is not serious. In this case, we also open a manga, and as long as we suppress him in anime and manga respectively, he will have no excuse to escape defeat. ”
The members of Angel are all confident, believing that the manga can suppress it.
The reason for such self-confidence comes from the competition of animation, although the audience satisfaction of "Madoka Magical Girl" has now surpassed that of "Flame Boy", but the results of "Flame Boy" are very stable, and the first few episodes have also opened up a big advantage. No matter how good "Madoka Magical Girl" is, it can't beat "Flame Boy" with six episodes left.
The 'Angels' were already in control, and their blind confidence made Ding Yanghua very uneasy, but he couldn't change Jiang Tianshi's decision.
"Forget it...... As long as it can be stopped, Qin Ya shouldn't be able to make waves. ”
In the end, Ding Yanghua could only comfort himself like this, Qin Ya and He Xi brought a sense of threat that was not at the same level at all, and their henchmen were still cartoonists.
So in this way, Qin Ya was ignored, and Zhongxia Company's choice to announce the news on November 7 was the result of multiple considerations. Adding blockage to Qin Ya's new work is just a matter of convenience.
Qin Ya was so angry that she grabbed the headlines of her new comics. As a result, the opponent turned out to be not himself. Moreover, Phoenix Company obviously launched two comics, but the 'Angel' only focused on He Xi, and the reporters had to treat her as a vase - which made Qin Ya, who was already very unhappy with the 'Angel', gritted her teeth even when she slept.
"Bastard, don't underestimate me!"
On the evening of November 7, Qin Ya got up in the middle of the night, she was angry, and then thought of a way to increase sales - to use videos to ask readers for support.
Although she didn't know if it would work, Qin Ya still stayed up late to record the video, the content of the video was very formal, and the words she said were carefully drafted. In the video, Qin Ya apologizes to readers for the comics that she stopped before, and then avoids the importance and says that she joined Phoenix because of a conflict with Zhongxia.
Having just joined the new company, it is natural that Qin Ya will feel uneasy.
""The Legend of the Galactic Singer" is my transformation work, and now that I have changed owners, whether this comic can sell well or not directly determines my future fate. Phoenix Company has a pity for the teacher, he will launch a new work "Dragon and Tiger" next week, which brings me a lot of pressure, I don't want to lose too badly, so please support me! ”
"Tomorrow's "Weekly Girl", please be sure to buy it and take it home!"
The video was only two minutes long, and after recording it, Qin Ya put it in her personal space, but she didn't expect the effect of this video to be very amazing.
Early in the morning of November 8, the video spread rapidly among the fan base, and countless readers were stunned when they looked at Qin Ya's apology in the video.
"Damn, our proud princess will apologize!"
"What a miracle! I've been chasing her for over four years, and this is the first time I've seen her apologize to us! ”
Princess Romance has always faced readers with confidence and rebellion, since she debuted at the age of sixteen and did not hesitate to leave school aside, Qin Ya has brought a rebellious style, and for several years, she has never bowed her head to readers.
Even in the scandal not long ago, Qin Ya's statement was very unusual, she only wrote a few words on Weibo - "Don't make trouble for me!" After reading my stories for so many years, can't you see that I like older men? Besides, if I had anything to do with Teacher Hexi, then I would have taken it out to show off! ”
A few words came out, and the scandal disappeared in a flash. Qin Ya's personality is like this, but today she stopped apologizing for the previous comics in the video, and she also hopes to get the support of readers.
"I'll wipe it, most of the princess has a cold!"
"Save、I'm going to save this video!"
Readers were boiling, and early in the morning, bookstores all over China were full of people who came to support Qin Ya.
Once the heritage she has accumulated over the years explodes, it is easy for the sales of "Weekly Girl" to skyrocket. And the increase far exceeded the forecast of Phoenix Company, and the magazines in many cities were out of stock, and the editorial department of the girl urgently notified the publishing houses in Ninghai and Suhua to print them, which barely maintained the number of copies needed for a week.
On the afternoon of November 8, the editors made an estimate using first-hand calculations that the sales of this issue of Weekly Girl exceeded the previous issue by 2 million copies. Two million copies - but that's not the total sales, it's the increase! In today's Phoenix Company, it is difficult for even Meng Shu to achieve such a high increase.
He was very excited when he got the news, and he signed a new contract with Qin Ya in the afternoon.
And Qin Ya slowly calmed down this afternoon after the surprise during the day. After signing the contract, she felt that today's matter was not as beautiful as it seemed on the surface, Qin Ya had a profound background, but her readership was very different from the magazine readers of Phoenix Company, and now she only brought these readers over.
"I'm nothing remarkable...... If you go to Midsummer, Teacher, it may make their "Midsummer Daily" skyrocket by tens of millions! ”
Qin Ya frowned and said, the new contract is very good, and all the remuneration has been the highest, but she suddenly felt that it was too early-a little unsuccessful.
And she's not kidding, no matter which comic company she goes to, it will bring a huge flow of readers.
"But this is your first week of launching Legend of the Galactic Singer...... In the first week, it skyrocketed by two million, and after it stabilized, it was ten million. ”
Meng Shu denied Qin Ya's self-deprecation, and in the evaluation of the editorial department, Qin Ya's value is very high. This shoujo cartoonist will bring tens of millions of new readers to the shoujo comics of the Phoenix Company, and the background is so profound that even Meng Shu did not expect it - he felt that Qin Ya's status in the Chinese comic industry was underestimated by Yan Zòng.
Generally speaking, when it comes to Qin Ya, others will rank her in the middle and upper class of Chinese cartoonists. But if Meng Huo is the first cartoonist in China, then Qin Ya should be the second cartoonist, her sales may not be in the top five, but her ability to influence readers is definitely in the top two.
The obvious example is Li Xin of Zhongxia Company, he is the top three people in the cash comics industry alone, and his popularity is far higher than Qin Ya several times, but what will happen if he is allowed to leave Zhongxia Company? Without the support of Zhongxia Company and the sufficient adaptation of the original work, even if Li Xin came to Phoenix Company, he might just be a cartoonist who did nothing.
Qin Ya is different, relying on the readers accumulated by years of self-writing and self-painting, that is the truly loyal reader.
"You're amazing!"
Meng Shu praised him sincerely, he almost looked away, but fortunately Qin Ya didn't refuse her when she came over.
Zhongxia Company should lose a lot now!
"How can it be as good as you say...... Qin Ya was a little embarrassed by the praise, she scratched her face slightly: "The quick report of "The Legend of the Galaxy Singer" has not come out yet, maybe the number of people will drop back in the next few weeks!" And this comic borrows a lot from your works, don't you get angry? ”
"No, how could it be!" Meng Shu shook his head: "And I read the first episode of your "Legend of the Galaxy Singer", which is quite good." ”
He watched the first episode of "The Legend of the Galaxy Singer" today, although Qin Ya is the first time to draw a science fiction theme, but the painting is very good, even better than Qin Ya's previous works, Meng Yu believes that her readers will not be disappointed, and more people will definitely come to buy "Weekly Girl" in the next few weeks.
"I also have a lot of ideas for science fiction comics, if you don't mind......" Meng Xu's heart moved, and suddenly said, "I can tell you about these ideas." ”
He has also watched a lot of sci-fi anime and comics in his previous life, and many of them have not been read, the most typical is the "Macross series", and some are super unpopular that may not be brought over in his lifetime. But the settings of these sci-fi anime are very rich, and it is better to take them out and use them if they are wasteful.
Qin Ya's comprehension is very good, if she can integrate these elements into "The Legend of the Galaxy Singer", maybe it will become the pillar of the Phoenix Company's girl comics.
"Okay!" Qin Ya didn't know what Meng Shu was thinking, but as soon as she heard that there was a Jian, she immediately agreed. (To be continued......)
