When he learned the ranking of "SLAM DUNK", Kotani Qianming came to the pantry on the pretext of pouring water, talked to Wang Wenhong on the phone, and told Wang Wenhong about the ranking of Xiaoshu and the number of votes obtained.

"It's a pity, but the book has come to more than 600 votes. According to previous editions, 600 votes for comics can basically determine the first place in the small book, but this time "The Gate of Eternal Life" has a better number of votes, perhaps due to the influence of animation. The editor-in-chief of Murakami is also very satisfied with this ranking, so don't let Mr. Shen be discouraged. ”

Wang Wenhong relayed Xiao Gu's words to Shen Xin as they were, and Shen Xin replied "I know", so he didn't say anything more, but his expression was not very happy.

"There will be a chance next time, Mr. Shen. We didn't win "The Gate of Eternal Life" this time, and we have a next time. Wang Wenhong saw Shen Xin locked, thinking that Shen Xin was dissatisfied with this ranking, and hurriedly comforted him.

"Not really." Shen Xin shook his head, "This vote should have moisture." ”

"Huh? Moisture content? Wang Wenhong was stunned and surprised.

""The Gate of Eternal Life" can have more than 600 votes because of the animation to drive popularity, and it can be understood, but "SLAM DUNK" should not have such a high popularity. In the last issue, "The Age of Steam" reached the top, but it was only 581 votes. Shen Xin looked up at Wang Wenhong, "That's because "Steam Age" has an animation released. And now, "SLAM DUNK" has risen directly to six hundred votes, which is certainly not true. ”

"And what do you mean?" Wang Wenhong was a little confused, "You mean, the magazine is estimated to have increased the number of votes for "SLAM DUNK"? ”

"Not really. Maybe it has something to do with the readers of "The Age of Steam". Shen Xin pouted.

"Huh? I know! Wang Wenhong snapped his fingers, "DO YOU MEAN THAT SOME READERS OF "STEAM AGE" VOTED FOR "SLAM DUNK"?" WELL, IT IS INDEED POSSIBLE THAT THE READERS OF STEAM AGE PLUS SLAM DUNK WILL CAST SUCH A HIGH VOTE. ”

If his speculation is correct, everything is reasonable.

"BUT AFTER THIS LITTLE BOOK IS OVER, SLAM DUNK'S RANKING AND VOTES WILL DROP...... I guess it's going to be questioned. Wang Wenhong sighed.

"Not necessarily." Shen Xin shook his head, "The role of color pages is originally to promote comics, since the readers of "Steam Age" voted for "SLAM DUNK" this time...... Can we get them to vote a second or even a third time? ”

"How is that possible? THEY ARE NOT SLAM DUNK READERS. Wang Wenhong waved his hand.

A delicate manga like "The Age of Steam" can easily generate iron fans.

"Then let's look at the comics for the next two months." Shen Xin said what he thought in his heart.

Although he said that, Shen Xin had no confidence in his heart, after all, "Steam Age" and "SLAM DUNK" are completely different comics, and these ideas are only Shen Xin's own ideas, whether he can attract more readers, his psychology is not confident.

Fortunately, the training match is just a small test, and he can accept it regardless of success or failure.

Two days after the small book rankings came out, the fourth issue of "Shonen Leap" was released, which serialized "False Sin" and the short manga "The Exorcist" in which Yoshito Yamagishi served as the original work. And this issue of the small book, "The Sin of Vanity" reached the top, "The Gate of Eternal Life" was surpassed again, and "SLAM DUNK" slipped to third place, but this ranking was much better than Shen Xin expected, and the plot of "SLAM DUNK" also showed signs of unfolding as Ikebana adapted to the arena.

Ikebana out of hostility to Liu Chuanfeng, while passing the ball, always look at Liu Chuanfeng, when the Lingnan players watched Liu Chuanfeng, Ikebana waited for the opportunity to pass to the unguarded Gong Yan, while pulling in the score, but also let the coach of the Lingnan team Tian Gang think that he underestimated Ikebana.

"He's shrewd, shrewd!" Tian Gang was not only surprised, but also panicked.

The subsequent game fell into anxiety, the score rose alternately, Liu Chuanfeng's legs even had some cramps, and he was still fighting on the court, and Hanamichi also showed his talent in rebounding, with his excellent bounce power, on the top of the head of the fish pillar and Xiandao, he took off the rebound, which surprised people inside and outside the court.

As the time progressed, there were 5 minutes left in the training match, and Hanamichi also showed its inexperienced side, when Yuzhu stuck in front of him and snatched the rebound, he had no choice, if it wasn't for a three-point shot from his teammates, the score was pulled into 74-70, Xiangbei's backward score would be even greater, and the difficulty faced by Hanamichi was that after the Yuzhu was stuck, Hanamichi was never able to get the rebound from the Yuzhu in front of him, and at this moment, Mu Gangxian, who had dealt with his wounds, returned to the court again.

"Stupid! What kind of rebounds are you grabbing? Mu Gangxian's first words when he entered the venue were inquiries about ikebana.

After the color page at the top of the volume, "SLAM DUNK" serialized four more episodes, each of which made the plot more compact, and the popularity in the country and the 11th district also began to improve unconsciously.

Subsequently, the 40th episode "no" was released, which was mainly a recollection of Mu Gangxian's private teaching of ikebana how to grab rebounds, which mentioned how to get stuck, and this time, ikebana was finally stuck in front of the fish pillar and took off the rebound ball steadily.

In this training match, Ikebana has made great progress, and his gains in this training match have surpassed everyone else, and readers are also excited about the growth of Ikebana.

"Is this the main character? The front looks so wasteful! ”

"Without the waste wood in front of me, I can't feel the great progress of ikebana."

"Where's the waste wood in ikebana? He has only been learning basketball for a month or two, and the opponent he faced was the provincial semi-finals. ”

"When Hanamichi snatched the rebound from the fish pillar, I even felt my blood boiling, and I held my breath for a long time."

"The plot suddenly became interesting, and the atmosphere gradually became tense, so I was looking forward to the next episode."

"It's 76-72, there's only a difference of two balls, can you not be nervous? It was less than five minutes long, and it was the best time of the game. ”

"By the way, it's my first basketball comic, and I'm nervous?"

"Then you still read less, there are other good comics too."

"Is there one? Recommend one. ”

"PUSH 'SLAM DUNK', THE PACE IS MUCH FASTER THAN 'SLAM DUNK', AND I THINK IT'S EVEN BETTER THAN 'SLAM DUNK'."

"I thought you were recommending a good manga? "Slam Dunk" is just something you can watch. ”

"Who said that? I think it's exciting, much better than SLAM DUNK. SLAM DUNK DOESN'T START A TRAINING MATCH UNTIL VOLUME 4. The second volume of "SLAM DUNK" has started the official competition. ”

"So you say? In my mind, this training match in "SLAM DUNK" is more exciting than most of the games in "Slam Dunk". ”

"Don't compare, really. COMPARED TO "SLAM DUNK", "SLAM DUNK" IS A YOUNGER BROTHER. ”
