Chapter 222: His Readers, Always There!

Nanhu City

The sky was bright, and Lu Xue wanted to sneak up from the bed, but she was still discovered by her husband.

"So early?" The husband, who looked a little confused, looked at his mobile phone, and the time was less than six o'clock: "Isn't it just to buy a comic magazine?" Why bother. ”

On Thursday, "Weekly Boy" was simultaneously released in Nanhu City. Nanhu is a second-tier city that is more inland and used to be available at some bookstores on Thursday afternoons and Fridays. However, this week, the situation has changed, and Huamei Bookstore has launched a two-day advertisement, saying that it can be sold at the same time as Ninghai.

This is a very rare opportunity for Lu Xue, she has been away from Ninghai for more than half a year, and she has never enjoyed the treatment of being released at the same time, and she misses the feeling of buying "Weekly Boy" with others.

"It's boring to stay at home, this issue of "Detective Conan" has three episodes, I want to see it early." Lu Xue said with a smile while changing her clothes: "It's a pity that the teacher is fighting against Li Xin, how can I do it if I don't contribute my strength?" ”

She is a die-hard fan of He Xi, and her husband understands this, in fact, he is very grateful for He Xi, if it weren't for "Five Centimeters per Second", he might have missed this wife.

"Okay, I'll go with you." He got up from the bed and looked at Lu Xue's slightly swollen belly: "You are pregnant now, I can't leave you outside, if something happens, my mother will have to kill me." ”

Lu Xue gave up her job as a host in Ninghai and came back to get married, her life is very happy, and now she is a few months pregnant, and she can already see the signs from her belly.

The husband and wife washed and dressed up separately, and then walked out of the house together. Huamei Bookstore is two blocks away from their house. Close enough to not have to drive. It can be reached very quickly by walking distance. In the past, when Huamei Bookstore didn't sell comics, they had to find Weekly Shonen in a bookstore on Five Streets.

"However, Huamei will join forces with Phoenix Company." On the way, the husband said: "It's so unexpected, although Huamei can't be compared with Zhongxia, but it's also a big company, but its reputation is ......a little worse."

The service attitude of Huamei Bookstore has not been very good. The bookstore chain has been half-dead for a long time, often breaking the news that consumers are buying fakes and low-quality books.

"It's going to get better in the future, didn't Huamei change bosses some time ago?" Lu Xue said with a smile: "They reorganized the management and restarted the business, this marriage with Phoenix Company, judging by their performance, the new boss is definitely a person who has the ambition to develop Huamei Bookstore." ”

In the past few days, Huamei Bookstore has shown its strong courage to the outside world, and even spread the advertisements of "Weekly Boys" to many second- and third-tier cities, causing a lot of uproar, as if the hope of regrouping is placed on comics.

For a bookstore. A book doesn't make or break it. But the beauty that has been forgotten for a long time, this large-scale advertising really made them out of the limelight. A strong return is in front of the reader.

And taking "Weekly Boy" as the focus of Huamei's advertising, Lu Xue believes that the new boss is very discerning.

He regrets that he will definitely not be an ordinary person in the future, Huamei Bookstore is now advertising "Weekly Boy" on the surface, but the content is centered on He Xi's works, especially this three-episode serialization of "Detective Conan", billboards can be seen on the main streets of Nanhu City.

It's like this-

"Remember that original manga that came out of nowhere? Do you remember that amazing boy? "Detective Conan" is specially dedicated - three episodes of serialization, bringing you the initial shock and touch! ”

"In this issue of "Weekly Boy", "Dream Eater", "Detective Conan" - what a pity for the four words of the work, it is definitely worth the price!"

On the way to Huamei Bookstore, Lu Xue saw these two huge posters hanging on the building, and Huamei's advertisements were indeed very good. Each of its ads is highly targeted and to the point, just like these two posters, which are not surprisingly appealing to readers.

The first poster is nostalgia, using simple sentences to let readers recall the popularity of "Detective Conan" last year, and there is no pity for the black avatar that just debuted on the poster screen.

For many, it was an unforgettable time. At that time, the manga market was dead, and there were manga adaptations everywhere, and what a pity that "Detective Conan" was a myth that came out of nowhere, which immediately attracted people who read comics.

Nearly a year has passed, and the comic market is now the same as it was then. Whether it's quality, quantity, or even the influence of comics, they are growing dizzyingly. The flashy ads will not only remind readers of that era, but also hint at them that the change in the comic book world began with Detective Conan.

It's a shallow hint, but it's very effective.

And the second poster is even more to the point, now the number of serialized comics in "Weekly Shonen" is already small, and what a pity "Dream Eater" and "Detective Conan" occupy four of the chapters, the highest proportion ever, of course it is a good deal.

"Huami has definitely put a lot of effort into it......"

Lu Xue can see from the advertisement that Huamei attaches great importance to He Xi, but too much attention makes Lu Xue a little worried, she doesn't know if she can create benefits that satisfy Huamei, after all, Li Xin in Zhongxia is too showy.

However, her worries disappeared when she turned the most rectangular bend and came to the street of the Huamei Bookstore. Instead, a strong shock almost stopped her heart.

“……”

The husband next to Lu Xue opened his mouth wide and looked at the street in surprise.

"This ...... That's too many people! ”

On the street, in front of the Huamei Bookstore, which has not yet opened, two mighty crowds stretch out to the upper and lower parts of the mall respectively, with a length of dozens of meters, and the number of people at least 1,000 at a glance is at least. The crowd lined up, very lively and chatting, most of them were young people, but there were also some children and the elderly.

At this time, the time of the display screen at the entrance of the bank was just past 6 o'clock. In this late spring morning, there are not many pedestrians on the streets, vehicles are sparse, and the queue in front of the Huamei bookstore is like a miracle, which is very spectacular.

"Why do you have so many comic book readers in Nanhu City?"

The husband said in surprise, but after Lu Xue was shocked, the corners of her mouth quietly hung a smile.

"They should all be fans of Teacher He Xi."

Nanhu City has never been released at the same time as Ninghai, and Lu Xue has never been able to see how many readers there are. Until this moment, the scene of Huamei Bookstore gave her an answer, what a pity - he is indeed the most influential cartoonist in China.

His readers, all the time! (To be continued......)
