My Cartoonist Guide

Entering July, "ComicFuture" united major platforms to carry out a series of rights protection activities and achieved certain results.

Domestic forums with D-version resources posted, as well as domestic D-version websites that wanted to take hold due to the craze brought by comic heaven, have all been blocked, and domestic search engines for D-version resources search have also been reduced a lot.

The sales of "ComicFuture" have finally stabilized, with 3.5 million copies in a single week, which is 500,000 copies less than before the suspension of "Steel Refining".

No one, including Shang Haozhi, expected that the suspension of "Steel Refining" would bring such a big change to the sales of "ComicFuture". After hitting the D version, the sales did not rise but fell. On the other hand, the booklet Before the D version appeared, about 70% of the sales of a single book were maintained.

After careful analysis, some of the reasons can be found.

First of all, the decline in the sales of the magazine has something to do with the suspension of "Steel Refining", because its single-volume sales have not been greatly affected.

Secondly, the D version of the website can be blocked, but in the face of hidden means, there is no good way, such as some people will publish resources in the penguin group, and another example is the Internet disk that has become popular abroad.

Once again, or even more severely hitting the magazine, even if the Manga Paradise server is attacked, soon, the website will not only be full of blood, but also similar D-version websites will appear.

That's right, even in foreign countries, there are already more than one D version websites, and there are even websites that specifically translate some popular comics into Japanese and English.

For these websites, the magazines also felt helpless and felt like "wild fires are endless and spring breeze is blowing again". "ComicFuture" does not have an agency in these countries. Therefore, it is very difficult to defend rights.

They also don't want to let go of these websites, but there is no way to stop them. They can only hope that the "Cartoonists Association" will reach an agreement despite consultations with foreign countries.

For a long period of time in the future, domestic magazines and comics, and even light novels, will face this situation. Without exception, no one is spared. This is almost the consensus of the industry.

The domestic comics creation environment is in a stable state, and compared with before, the magazine has also reduced the number of first editions of single-volume editions.

This year, the "Avalanche" triggered by the D version made comic practitioners feel a bit of chill.

Duoman.com organized a recharge to send coupons, and even reached the discount rate of recharge for one year and one year, which allowed its business value to increase slightly. After all, it did not include all the domestic comics. Compared with the D version, This is the weakness.

"ComicFuture" has fewer methods. It mainly makes money from booklets and magazines. It can't always buy one get one free, right?

After consulting with Luo Zheng, the magazine decided to put "The King of Rock and Roll" on its own app. It costs ten yuan a book and earns 50-50%.

In July, it will be the home of "The King of Rock and Roll". The magazine not only emphatically recommended this comic on TV shows, but also put up posters in major bookstores as the new booklet of "The King of Rock and Roll". Promote and advertise on related two-dimensional websites and other magazines.

The "ComicFuture" app also gave the "King of Rock" a start-up color painting, and plans to add this comic directly to the reader's bookshelf after the comic is officially registered in the app-this is already the best promotion of the app.

This kind of treatment has never been enjoyed even in "Steel Refining".

Luo Zheng also knows that this month is his best opportunity. He is full of energy and wants to prove himself. The plot gradually rises, trying to stabilize his advantage before the return of "Steel Refining".

On the other hand, "The Hunting Abyss" is about to end, some readers bought the magazine out of feelings.

Under the influence of these two factors, the sales of "ComicFuture" rose steadily after entering July, reaching 3.68 million copies.

However, this kind of increase obviously cannot satisfy Shang Haozhi.

"Climax...hurry up and let Teacher Luo hand in the most exciting part." Shang Haozhi reminded Xu Jie.

"Mr. Shang, the comics must have a rhythm. If the initial preparation is not enough, even if the climax is drawn, it won't make people's eyes bright. Still trust Teacher Luo?" Xu Jie persuaded patiently.

He now also knows Wang Wenhong's difficulties.

After the suspension of "Steel Refining", all the pressure was on "The King of Rock and Roll". The number one position seemed good, but there was a volcano under the butt.

Compared with "Steel Refined", in addition to its inferior quality, the biggest disadvantage of "The King of Rock and Roll" is the subject matter, and there are not as many potential readers as "Steel Refined".

Xu Jie is well aware of the contradiction between the senior management and Shen Xin, but at present, it is difficult to make a big difference with only one or two cartoons.

Shang Haozhi's intention is also obvious, that is, to prove to Shen Xin that whoever they want to favor will be popular, so that Shen Xin can make concessions.

When the magazine put all its expectations on "The King of Rock" and "Different World Restaurant", the pressure of the two comics can be imagined-they not only have to face the aggressive Duoman.com and "Age of Gods" ", but also to carry the sales of "ComicFuture".

Shang Haozhi rubbed his forehead, feeling depressed.

After the suspension of "Steel Refining", the popularity of animation on the Internet continued to rise, not only in China, but also aroused discussion among readers in District 11.

Due to the popularity of animation, even if the comics were interrupted for a month, they still ranked the top three on the hot list, stabilizing the "King of Rock".

This situation is not what the senior management wanted to see, but they couldn't find a work that could replace "Steel Refining" for a while~www.NovelMTL.com~ It was really difficult.

At this moment, Yan Fei walked into the office with two envelopes.

"How is Teacher Shen?" Shang Haozhi couldn't help asking.

"Mr. Shen?" Yan Fei was stunned. Shang Haozhi hadn't asked Shen Xin for a long time. "The arm is better, and the inflammation on the stomach has recovered pretty well."

"Did you start painting?"

"Of course, Orochi has been urging." Yan Fei explained.

"Where did you paint?"

"It's very nervous. Al and Hoinheim meet, and then he may face'Sir Father'."

Shang Haozhi looked at Yan Fei, who was beaming with joy, and sighed again in his heart. He can only hope that "The King of Rock and Roll" will take off soon.

"By the way, President Shang, have you followed the rankings of Western animation?" Yan Fei suddenly asked after sitting down.

"No, what's the matter?" Shang Haozhi asked puzzledly.

"You can find out by searching the Internet." Yan Fei smiled reluctantly.

"Ok?"

Shang Haozhi looked confused, but still subconsciously searched the Asian animation rankings of the United States, quickly browsed the list, and immediately could not speak.

The animation of "Steel Refining" ranked third with a score of 9.3, and "The Journey of Two" ranked seventh with a score of 8.9.

what happened?

Shang Haozhi was confused, and quickly glanced at the number of comments.

The number of evaluations is not too many, and the number of evaluations for the two comics is less than two hundred.

He looked at other animations, without exception, they were all works from District 11, and there were even manga comics at the level of monsters 20 or 30 years ago.

Are there any foreign readers watching the animation of "Steel Refining"?

Shang Haozhi blinked, his mind a little bit unable to turn his head.
