Chapter 435 Signing Records
There were more than 2,000 people queuing at the door at the beginning of the signing, and at least 5,000 people at the door nearly an hour after the signing began.
More than 800 people have signed sales, 500 people have entered, and 5,000 people are queuing.
That's a scary number!
What is the concept of 5,000 people, it can already support a medium-sized concert!
By ten o'clock, Meng Fan had signed nearly 2,000 people, 500 people had entered, and there were at least 5,000 people queuing outside.
That's just this number, the comic book signing record has been refreshed, if you add more than 2,000 people, it will be the specification of a 10,000-person concert!
Because the number of people queuing outside is really not reduced, so the venue can only make a decision, let the people in line enter the venue from the other door and sit on the audience to wait, so that it will not be long before the attendance rate of the Neon Martial Arts Hall is nearly half, although there is still a gap between the scene and the Olympic stadium, but the enthusiasm is not bad.
The media moved when they heard the news, Neon and Huaxia Media had already sent teams to shoot and interview - interviewing fans, and later foreign media also came, and a lot came, some large foreign media groups basically sent teams, and the small ones sent photographers and a reporter, and no matter how bad it was, it was a reporter who took a mobile phone or small photographic equipment to shoot.
Of course, the fastest and widest spread is still from these comic fans' "self-media", whether it is Huaxia or Neon Network, there are hot spots related to Meng Fan's comic book signing.
In addition, taking advantage of the east wind of this Olympics, not to mention how many people came to Meng Fan's signing meeting this time, anyway, the whole world knows about it, and it has become the front-page news of at least more than 30 countries.
And in this way, in Kyoto and even neon, there has been a rush to buy a single book of "Strange Man of Mountains and Seas".
The first printing of the first volume of "Strange People in the Mountains and Seas" was 200,000 copies, except for 10,000 copies that were shipped to the Neon Budokan Museum, and the remaining 190,000 copies were sent to physical channels and online channels throughout the country.
As for the Neon Martial Arts Museum, as early as nine o'clock, it had begun to mobilize inventory from other places, mainly because there were still many comic fans who bought more than one copy on the premise of signing a contract, including some Chinese people who had already bought the Chinese version of the single book.
In addition, Kodansha's reprinting also came out -- last night, when I saw that the situation was "not right," Kodansha immediately printed 100,000 copies, and now there is a second reprint, and the Duojia printing plant was mobilized to rush the production, and the 400,000 copies could be shipped to all parts of the country before 5 p.m.
In the blink of an eye, the signing in the Neon Martial Arts Hall has progressed for nearly four hours, and the number of people Meng Fan has signed has exceeded 3,500 people, and at this time, the attendance rate of the Neon Martial Arts Hall has reached 60%, which means that even if so many people have signed up, there are more people in line than before, more than 6,000 people!
Counting the 500 people who got on and off the seats and lined up, how can this be counted as 10,000 people!
10,000 people signing the book?
It's really kind of scary!
Where did so many people come from?
In addition to tourists from all over the world who watch the Olympic Games, the Chinese people who watch the excitement are not counted, and the most important thing is the neon fans.
Too much, too much because I saw the timely report, I know that Meng Fan's signing is very fast, and he is queuing up in the Neon Martial Arts Hall - the Neon Martial Arts Hall is a holy place for many neon people, although this signing sale has a little cost in addition to buying books (most of the signing meetings are like this), but the price is lower than the usual cost of admission tickets, tickets are not expensive and you can still see Meng Fan, many people came.
A large number of these people had already purchased manga monographs at other bookstores, and as soon as they heard that they could afford to wait, they would definitely get their turn, so they immediately ran over.
"Have you eaten, what are you going to eat?"
Wu Tong and the others watched the signing in the venue for a while, went out to have a meal, and came back at about 1 o'clock, seeing that Meng Fan was still signing the sale, they asked, and were going to get some food for Meng Fan.
"Anything goes. ”
Meng Fan continued to sign and draw, and responded with a smile Wu Tong, this smile is even better than the already good-looking smile that he has maintained before, and he can see that the fans who are waiting for the signing nearby have stars in their eyes.
I thought that Meng Fan's smile just now was already the best-looking smile in the world, but I didn't expect that Meng Fan's smile on Wu Tong was the best in history.
Meng Fan has energy gel to recover his strength, but of course, he has to eat a little, and he doesn't have to pursue any external criticism that "he can't even have time to eat a bite of food after signing a contract", besides, Meng Fan is really in time.
Wu Tong soon brought a lot of rice balls and other food, not only Meng Fan, but also the staff on the side, although many people had already eaten them.
Meng Fan opened his mouth, stretched out his hand and stuffed it into a rice ball, and within a few clicks, more than 20 rice balls entered his stomach, which also dumbfounded the fans on the side.
This amount of food, Nima can only appear in comics!
Mutter!
Just when Meng Fan was eating the fragrant food, there were a few stomach cries from the queue waiting for autographs, Meng Fan was stunned, and the people on the side were stunned, and then they all laughed.
"Then I'll try to go as fast as I can. ”
Meng Fan went to pause the signing with one hand, took the microphone inside the venue, and said through the radio: "If you are hungry, you can go and eat something first, I will ask the staff to get you a number, and after eating, you can continue to line up in the original order." That~ The main reason is that there are too many of you, even if I invite you to a rice ball by yourself - I can afford to invite it, there is no place to find so many rice balls. ”
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and naturally no one jumped out and said that he knew of a restaurant that could provide so many rice balls.
Before that, Meng Fan had been signing, and the number of people in the queue had been increasing, once increasing to the seventy percent attendance rate of the Neon Martial Arts Hall, you must know that Meng Fan's speed of signing in an hour was almost 1,000 people, and the idiom "one eliminates the other" has a completely different meaning here.
"There are still 4,000 people in the queue, shouldn't the queue be closed?"
The staff came over and told Meng Fan the latest statistics again, even though Meng Fan said before that there was no need to limit the queue, but he still came to ask, it was indeed Meng Fan's signing time was not short, and the number of people signing was too much, how much was worried that Meng Fan was too tired.
Meng Fan glanced up and asked again, knowing that the number of new queues was already decreasing, so he nodded, he didn't have any physical problems, but he didn't explode in this kind of thing, mainly because he didn't deliberately want to refresh any records - in fact, he had already broken a lot of records.
After the news of the queue was released, everyone naturally didn't say anything, there are still more than 4,000 people in the venue, and it is at least ten o'clock in the evening after the signing is over, to be honest, it is a little late.
After the queue ended, the Neon Budokan also immediately had a final statistic, and the number of people who entered the museum today reached 14,233, which also broke the record of ticket sales since the opening of the Neon Budokan.
The total number of Neon Martial Arts Halls is 11,000, even if anyone holds a concert, the audience is 11,000, and the number of seats will not increase by 13,000, and Meng Fan's signing is a "flowing seat" style.
In addition, at about 8 o'clock, Kodansha's book sales staff also counted the number of single books sold at the book signing, 56,886 copies!
This is also because some of the fans who came to sign the book later have already bought a single book on other sites, otherwise, the number will be even more - many fans will buy more than one book.
Of course, these more than 56,000 copies are also the result of Kodansha's three mobilization of single books from outside, otherwise they would have been sold out long ago.
Neon Budokan's signing points are prioritized for stock mobilization, while neon manga houses and bookstores across the country do not have such a priority, and many of them are already sold out before 6 p.m., and they are not replenished until the reprinted single book comes out after 6 p.m.
At half past 10, Meng Fan signed a famous painting for the last comic fan, and turned his head to see that there were at least 2,000 people in the venue who had not left although they had all got their autographs, waiting for the final group photo with Meng Fan.
