Chapter 50: Don't blink your eyes

17 October.

"Cheers!"

In the bachelor apartment, three women toast with drinks, and the floor is full of scattered snacks.

"I said Editor Liu, the first time that "Weekly Girl" sold "Girl Comics", you only invited me to drink." One woman laughed and said, "Isn't that too stingy?" ”

"It's good if I invite you to eat." The second woman, Liu Xuan, the editor of the editorial department of Weekly Girl, grabbed potato chips and chewed: "The victory of "Weekly Girl" is because of what pity and Teacher Hua Meng, what kind of fun are you making. ”

"Aren't I curious?"

The woman looked at the last person with a smile, Hua Meng, who was the assistant of the "Inuyasha" manga: "Teacher Hua Meng, you can hold your thighs now, I was sweating before "Inuyasha" came out, but I didn't expect it to be on fire!" ”

At this time, "Weekly Girl" had been sold for one day, and the sales volume had completed preliminary statistics, and the results were much better than people expected, and its sales in Ninghai and the surrounding areas surpassed that of "Girl Comics", which attracted a lot of amazement.

"Shojo Manga" was a sales winner before, and this week two magazines were sold at the same time, and "Weekly Girl" not only filled the gap, but even gradually distanced itself.

What a pity to create a miracle again, his market boom has made countless media fall through the eyeballs, and readers on the Internet use a sentence "I'd rather believe in pigs and dogs than believe in the media" to describe their anger at being deceived, and now this sentence can be seen in various forums.

And the girl manga artists who knew that Hanamu was the assistant of "Inuyasha" also came to congratulate Hanameng, and almost didn't break the door of Hanameng's house in two days, which made the latter full of helplessness.

"Actually, I really didn't help anything, these are the results of what a teacher."

Hua Meng replied like this every time, the pictures and characters of "Inuyasha" are basically responsible, and she only deals with more trivial things such as shadows, lines, and outlets, so there is really no reason to be congratulated.

"Teacher Hua Meng, don't be modest, but what a pity that the teacher is really powerful, he has won the first place in the newspaper, Xiaozheng and all readers in the survey of the past few months, and nearly 100 letters are sent to the editorial department every day!"

Liu Xuan took a sip of the drink and sighed with emotion: "He has become the pillar of the company, and I think "Weekly Girl" may also become his exclusive stage." ”

"You have to be angry, especially you, Teacher Huameng!" Liu Xuan pointed at Hua Meng and said: "The editorial department has great expectations for you, you have to study hard when you are an assistant, and ask for advice from the teacher." ”

"I know."

Hua Meng nodded, she and Mr. Tomato are both cartoonists carefully selected by the editorial department, and it is actually a matter of further study to put them around, and the editorial department hopes that they can draw better comics in the future.

On January 18, Hua Meng went to Meng Huo's house to work. Two days ago was the middle school exam in Ninghai, and the work of "Inuyasha" was pushed to today.

As soon as she entered the door, Hua Meng heard the sound of talking from the study, and she just wanted to go in to have a look, but was pulled down by Li Qin.

"You drink the water first, they're discussing things." Li Qin handed Hua Meng a glass of water and said with a smile: "When they finish discussing, you can go in again." ”

"Okay, Sister Qin." Hua Meng took a sip of water and asked curiously, "What are they talking about?" ”

"It seems that the manuscript fee is raised, and your company is really ......" Li Qin smiled with a smile on her face: "2oo per picture is enough, but I didn't expect it to rise." ”

"It's a price increase."

Hua Meng was not surprised, Meng Shu had made a great contribution to Phoenix Company, and it was normal to increase the manuscript fee.

It didn't take long for Alice to walk out, still holding a stack of essays in her hand.

"Teacher Huameng has arrived? Sorry for the delay, now you can go in. Alice apologized, Hua Meng picked up the bag and walked to the study, and heard Li Qin's voice behind her: "Alice, how much has the price increased this time?" ”

"Well, each picture is 6oo Huaxia coins, and the royalty is still 1o%."

"Bang!" Teacher Hua Meng hit the doorpost and covered her forehead.

6oo per picture!? Royalty 1o%!? No matter which criterion is said, it will shock a bunch of people, and the best cartoonists in Phoenix Company only have 3oo per picture, and the royalty is only 8%. There are a lot of manuscript fees for cartoonists in Longteng Company, and there are a lot of cartoonists in 8oo, but due to copyright issues, the royalties of those cartoonists are only 3% at most!

It's a pity that the teacher is now the most valuable person in the comics industry, how much money can he make at such a high price? Hua Meng walked into the study in a trance.

"Teacher Huameng, you're ready to work."

Meng Shu was sorting out his painting tools, and looked up at Hua Meng's face: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"No, nothing." Hua Meng patted her face and forced herself not to think too much, she smiled: "Congratulations, what a pity teacher, the market sales of "Inuyasha" are very good, and the survey is also the first. ”

"Has "Weekly Girl" sold more than "Shojo Manga"?"

Meng was only interested in this result.

"It's over." Hua Meng nodded: "Yesterday's new serialization of "Shojo Manga" increased its sales by 30,000 copies, but the sales of "Weekly Girl" increased by 300,000 copies. ”

She was very envious in her heart, the sales of "Weekly Girl" benefited from "Inuyasha", but "Inuyasha" was able to show its effect so quickly, of course, because of the scale of the readership.

"It's a pity that your influence can be compared with that of a first-line novelist!"

Hua Meng couldn't help but praise, but Meng Shu laughed: "I can't compare to their influence, it's very good to be able to compare with those second-rate novelists." ”

The novels in this world have a much greater impact than comics, and Meng Shu's debut is very short.

But Hua Meng didn't believe his words: "Teacher, don't be modest, the writer of "Girl Comics" launched this time is a little god, and her market table is not as good as you!" ”

She uses sales comparisons to measure impact, which is the wrong approach.

"That's normal."

Meng Shu replied, then shook his head and said, "Comics and novels are different, you guys...... It's just that the novelist is too terrible. ”

He admits that the approach of the Dragon Teng Company is very effective, but comics and novels are different things, each word of comics is only twenty pages, and the content of these pages must be reasonably arranged, those novelists don't know anything about it, how can they draw comics well?

Even if the cartoonists who cooperate with them know, but they divide and cooperate, and the novelists are the leader, it is easy to cooperate poorly, and problems will arise at any time.

Besides, what is the reason why those novels adapted from comics sell well? The original, of course the original - without the support of the original book, it sounds scary for a novelist to enter the world of comics, but how many readers will be interested in comics without the original book?

Novelist turned cartoonist? How can the transformation be so simple, if you are not careful, it will become a big joke, especially for Meng Shu, he competed with a novelist to draw comics, that is, he was crushed all the way......

When such a person comes, he steps on one by one, and he doesn't have to blink his eyes.

(The results of the survey are out, and the update time will be adjusted to 1 more than 1o o'clock, 2 more at 18 o'clock, if there are 3 more at 23 o'clock in the evening!) )
