Chapter 380: Let go of that car

After the first single book of "Strange People from Mountains and Seas" was sold in China, Goro Takahashi knew about it through the channel for the first time, and knew a very interesting information.

Before 0:00 on the first day, Penguin Animation Network and Changjiang Publishing House decided to reprint, and the number of additional prints was also set at 200,000 copies, which is a larger number than the first printing, which shows that these two parties have confidence in the follow-up sales of "Strange Man in the Mountains and Seas", but also expose that they did underestimate the sales ability of "Strange People in the Mountains and Seas" before.

You know, this first print of 180,000 is not to say that you will sell it out in one day, but to continue to buy it for a long time.

It was confirmed that the printing was confirmed, and several major e-commerce platforms have opened pre-orders.

Takahashi found that as far as he could count, by the time he woke up the next morning, before he was about to knock on the editor-in-chief's office, it was already more than 50,000.

In other words, in addition to the first day sales of more than 130,000, the next day sales can still be maintained at about 100,000, which is very good.

Take some phenomenal comics of Neon as an example, it is not a day that can produce millions of sales, it takes a long time to accumulate.

There may be a terrible number on the first day of sales, but the next day it will be drastically reduced, and then it will accumulate day and night to reach a million sales.

But Meng Fan is ...... The next-day sales were much stronger than most comics.

This made Goro Takahashi a little surprised, he thought that with Meng Fan's current fame in Huaxia, it should be the first day of sales explosion and then the next day quickly faded the heat, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

Curious, Goro Takahashi did not immediately go to the editor-in-chief, but collected this reason through various channels.

The information gathered (the exact accuracy of which is unknown) is a little incomprehensible to Goro Takahashi.

First of all, although the Chinese comic market has slowly grown, the habit of buying a single book is still very low, and most people can see it on the Internet and don't buy physical books, preferring to reward the amount on the website that far exceeds the price of a single book, and there is no reluctance to buy.

The second is that although the Chinese comic market is already very large, it is still very small compared to the population base of Huaxia, especially the proportion of people who read comics is not high, do not compare with film and television dramas, etc., take animation itself, the number of people who watch animation far exceeds the number of people who watch comics, many people have seen animations such as Pirates and Hokage, but the proportion of people who have seen comics is very low.

In other words, with Meng Fan's current popularity, there is a piece of online support, but the proportion of consumption power that is really converted into comics is not high, and at most he goes to the website to flip through it, so the data of online clicks in all aspects is very terrible, but the physical sales are relatively much worse. Further, if "Strange Man of Mountains and Seas" has been animated, the support will not be the same.

Third, it is because of such popularity that many people go to the website to flip through it, and a small number of these people have the idea of buying a collection, so the follow-up sales have come up again.

And "a very small part of these many people" can constitute such follow-up sales, which is also surprising to Goro Takahashi.

All in all, despite the fact that the Chinese market is still able to achieve such sales based on the purchasing power of the Chinese market, and the online response has been very good, which is also a reason for Goro Takahashi to knock on the door of the editor-in-chief's office again to convince him.

Putting aside the popularity, just talking about the reaction, there is no reason not to move the publication!

"Takahashi-san, you don't need to say it. ”

The editor-in-chief let Goro Takahashi, who had entered the office, sit down and said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with your proposal, "Strange People of Mountains and Seas" is indeed qualified to be transferred to "Weekly Shonen M", to be honest, this is actually an opportunity for "Weekly Shonen M", whose sales are declining day by day. ”

A call was made, and soon a couple of editors came in.

The editor-in-chief made the decision clear, and then said, "Next, let's discuss which two comics should be discontinued, or transferred to supplements." ”

After discussing and deliberating, it was finally determined that it was already past four o'clock when Goro Takahashi called again to tell Meng Fan the news, and Meng Fan was on the train home at the moment.

"Moved to Weekly Shonen M?"

When Meng Fan heard it, he was naturally happy, from the supplement to the three major juvenile comics, which is undoubtedly a great thing for "Strange People in the Mountains and Seas".

Although the circulation of "Weekly Shonen M" is barely maintained at about 700,000, it is still the second highest circulation of neon weekly, which is something that every cartoonist should be happy about compared to the supplement, and Meng Fan is no exception. More remuneration is still secondary, and the most important thing is to be able to let more fans see Huaxia comics!

Speaking of remuneration, don't look at Meng Fan's lack of advertising endorsements, but he is still making money during this time, and he has made a lot of money.

The biggest head is naturally Penguin Animation Network, the subscription share of "There is a Spirit on the Earth", although "Campus Love Refers to Men" is finished, there are still a lot of subscriptions, although "Strange Man in the Mountains and Seas" is still free, but I can't bear to reward Cheedo, including the one million accounts I rewarded, there are also 500,000 shares.

In addition, the live broadcast of 8 stations is not many times, but every time I go up, the gifts are overwhelming, and the dividends are also a lot.

There is also a part of the royalties from the sales of the previous comic book book, and the money for dubbing has also been settled.

- There is also a bonus for winning the championship three times, but the prize money is not much, not to mention the wrestling Grand Prix, the prize money for a level of the Judo Masters is only 50,000 US dollars, as long as you participate in a full game, even if Meng Fan wins the championship and gets the lion's share, it is not much.

Judo is a relatively mainstream event, but its ability to attract money is really poor, and it can't be compared with the tennis masters with millions of dollars at every turn, the golf masters with tens of millions of dollars, and even snooker and other events.

Well, if you take out e-sports, it's also a spike.

To mention, the Chinese domestic judo tournament only began to have a bonus system after Ms. Xian came to power, and the amount is certainly not high.

As for the bonuses of these three champions, they have not yet reached Meng Fan's hands.

Having said that, if it weren't for those incomes, Meng Fan wouldn't have dared to smash so many 20 awards in the live broadcast lottery. In addition to this, Meng Fan didn't go out with Wu Tong to buy anything in the past few days, most of them were bought and brought back to these sisters and sisters after Wu Tong helped select, and they were all left in this big box with him.

But even with this squandering, there is still a seven-figure balance in the card.

"Okay, then I'll send you the manuscript every Thursday from now on. ”

Meng Fan also agreed to Takahashi Goro's request to send the sketch to them for review earlier, as for Takahashi Gorou said that Kodansha wanted Meng Fan to go to Neon to hold a fan meeting, Meng Fan refused: "Let's wait for the single book to come out, and then you can sign it directly." ”

Then I chatted a couple of sentences and ended the call, the neon side of the single book must not have been published so early, it must have to wait for the performance to stabilize after the transfer.

"Young people. ”

After a middle-aged man sitting next to Meng Fan saw Meng Fan hang up the phone, he asked curiously: "How do I think you are very familiar, are you a star?"

If you look familiar, you feel that it is a star, of course, because of Meng Fan's charm, otherwise ask us if we have seen it somewhere.

Without waiting for Meng Fan to answer, an uncle with a big back in the front row turned his head and said, "This is not an ordinary star, but a sports star, the pride of our Wen City!"

"Oh, I remembered, didn't you think about that one who fought very well?"

"It wasn't a fight, it was a wrestling match and a judo match. However, the fight should be very strong as well hahaha. ”

The conversation between the two of them immediately attracted the people on the side who were looking at Meng Fan but were a little scared and joined the chat.

"Iron God doesn't just fight these games, MMA knows no, mixed martial arts is a real fight, he is even more powerful!

"Tenjin, this nickname is Oxback!" - the pronunciation of the Iron God and the Celestial God is similar in Wenshi dialect.

A group of people talked and laughed, and when they saw that Meng Fan was not as murderous as they imagined, they started to do it without saying a word, but they were very kind with a smile, and the desire to chat was even higher.

These middle-aged people who don't know Meng Fan very well are also in a good mood, feeling that this young man is very infectious, watching him laugh, he laughs inexplicably, and the journey has added a lot of joy.

At Ruicheng Station in Wenshi at 6 o'clock in the evening, it was already dark, and Meng Fan carried a marching bag and a large box out of the station, coupled with the presence of this body, it was quite eye-catching.

"Look, Meng Fan!"

"Really!"

"Meng Fan is really from Wen City!"

"Let's see if we can take a group photo!"

"Be careful, I've heard he's bad-tempered. ”

"How did I hear he had a good temper?"

As Meng Fan walked, he took his mobile phone and sent a voice message in the group: "I've arrived." You're really not coming to pick me up, then I'll take a taxi back. ”

As for the group photo on the side, Meng Fan is still very cooperative, as long as he doesn't block his way around him, well, no one dares to stand in his way.

"Brother, this!"

Meng Cailan and Meng Caihui waved at Meng Fan, then quickly put their hands in their pockets and stomped their feet, because it was cold!

Meng Fan quickened his pace and said with a smile: "Didn't you two say that you didn't come if you didn't pick up the fare?"

"Are we the kind of people who forget their righteousness when they see profit, see money, and don't give gifts, and ignore you without red envelopes?"

"Brother Cai Peng! Is it really you? You have changed too much, haven't you? When I watched TV, I thought I was hallucinating! I really lost weight! It's over, brother, you have become so good-looking, how can I find a boyfriend in the future!"

"I'm only in the second year of junior high school, what kind of boyfriend are I looking for!"

"Why can't I find a boyfriend in the second year of junior high school? Xiaolan already had a boyfriend when she was in the fifth grade!"

"Xiaohui! If you want that, then I'm not welcome!"

The two younger sisters chattered around Meng Fan, it's not that Meng Fan has this treatment when he looks good, and it was the same when he was fat before.

Of course, there must still be changes, such as the fact that both of them have made an appointment to ask Meng Fan to accompany them to the reunion of classmates and friends.

The second sister was waiting in the car below, very lazy, and said that she was afraid of the cold. ”

The three of them walked in the direction of the parking lot, Meng Cailian and Meng Caihe wanted to help carry something, but they gave up as soon as they saw Meng Fan's oversized box, and as for the marching bag, they weighed it and didn't think anything had happened.

When approaching the parking lot, Meng Fan and the three of them saw Meng Cailian, and at the same time, they also saw some people surrounding here, and saw a black SUV "climbing" onto a small bridge car.

In addition, Meng Cailian seems to have had an argument with someone.

"Who are you scolding?"

"Scold you! What's wrong! You are driving so fast that you crash into other people's cars like this, and the two big men don't help save people after they get down, but they still curse and scold on the side! The old lady not only wants to scold you, but also beats you!"

"Hit me!"

Syllable!

Meng Cailian was not polite at all, and when she picked it up, she slapped it on the face that came over.

"How dare you hit me!"

The man who was slapped with a big mouth immediately became angry, and also picked up his big mouth and threw it towards Meng Cailian.

It's just that before the man's big mouth could reach it, Meng Cailian had already kicked it with a high heel, and the man immediately covered his feet and shouted.

There was also a man next to this man, and as soon as he opened his legs, he was blocked by a huge figure.

This huge figure is naturally Meng Fan, "Sister, what's wrong?"

Meng Cailian was very happy to see Meng Fan, pointed to the stacked cars over there, and said hurriedly: "You're here, it's great! Hurry up, go over there to help, there are still people in the back seat of the car being pressed inside! I can deal with these two strokes! You hurry up!"

Meng Fan put down the box and hurriedly ran over, the damage caused by the collision between the two cars was not very serious, but the tragedy was that the car was estimated to have been knocked out for a distance, one side of the car was directly attached to a low wall, and the black SUV climbed up from the other side, pressing the door on the other side of the back seat of the car.

The passenger door can be opened, but the occupant in the back seat can't climb over because the roof is pressed down, not to mention the sunroof.

Meng Fan took a quick look, and it seemed that the driver and the people in the passenger seat had already gotten down from the passenger door, but there was a 20-year-old girl trapped in the back seat.

The quality of the body of this car is not good, and the SUV that climbs on top of the car is heavy, if you stay in it all the time, no one dares to guarantee that the roof will continue to collapse and cause secondary damage to the girl in the back seat.

The police must have called the police, and the security guards and police at the train station also came, as well as a few passers-by, who were trying to find a way to fix or get the SUV on it down.

"No, no, no, if you pull it like this, the roof of the car will not be able to stand it!"

"Gotta wait for a crane or something!"

"Aren't there those big guys at the train station?"

"Everyone is like this! When you are a little tired, you take off your coat first and cover the children in the car, in case you ...... You can also take a break!"

"Hold on!"

A middle-aged couple was worried while thanking them, and they both cried profusely, and the husband had obvious impact scars on his forehead.

Meng Fan listened to these words, roughly understood the situation, went around again, and then stood on the side of the SUV like these people and found a position to grab the handle.

"Let go, I'll come. ”
