Chapter 587: Good sales
"Avatar" first became popular among some student groups.
Because most of the students have free time, and they are more interested in alien civilizations and fantasy worlds, it is easier to accept such works.
At the same time, because of the vigorous promotion on the Internet, there are also many adults and office workers who are very interested in this work, and some people have begun to establish relevant discussion topics about Avatar, as well as some post bars and small stations.
Slowly, "Avatar" has begun to accumulate some fans.
Because the original author Cuaron made the setting of "Avatar" very detailed, although it was simplified a lot when the first comic book was published, many key problems hidden in the work can also be solved, which gives people a very real and scientific feeling, so many people have a higher evaluation of "Avatar".
With the publication of the second comic book of "Avatar", some related suspense and problems will gradually be united and then solved one by one.
This makes the work much more continuous, and it is easier to attract a core audience.
However, it is still difficult to make a comic work suddenly popular, although "Avatar" has become popular in a small area, but compared to the entire large pan-entertainment cultural circle, there is still too much difference.
This kind of thing can't be rushed, after all, it needs to be accumulated.
……
As "Avatar" gradually gained some popularity, naturally some people in the film industry also noticed this work.
Some of these directors and producers' children like the first "Avatar" comics very much, and some children even pestered their parents every day to explain the stories in it.
Among them, some people took a serious look at the background of the comic book "Avatar".
I don't know if I don't ask, but I am shocked when I ask.
Originally...... This work, which is gradually becoming popular, is actually a project led by Chen Feng's Ping An Investment Company.
Chen Feng: Isn't he making movies? Why did he suddenly start comics?
Could it be that this is the project that was blocked as rumored some time ago?
Because he didn't have the technology to shoot the effect he wanted, Chen Feng's new project was yellow...... And then...... He turned that yellow project into a comic book publication?
At the same time, people in the film industry, others quickly guessed Chen Feng's thoughts.
Since it is impossible to shoot the work for the time being, let's hype the IP first, if the IP is hyped first, then it may be more beneficial to the development of subsequent films.
That's a great way to do that.
……
If the first person finds out about it, then the second person will find out about it, and when more than two people find out about it, then the matter will soon be known to everyone.
Sure enough, within a few days, many people in the film industry knew that Chen Feng led the development of the "Avatar" comics.
The people in the circle ran to buy the comics and read them.
Well, it's a pretty good comic work, the imagination is really rich, and the story is wonderful...... If such a manga can be made into a movie, it will be very shocking.
But...... Now this is still a comic after all, and it seems that Chen Feng does not have the ability to make this work directly into a movie for the time being.
As for the others, don't even think about it.
So, many people shook their heads and threw the comic books aside.
There are also many people who continue to laugh at Chen Feng: "Hehe, this guy is finally not good, the "Moon" movie just hit the street, and now what kind of comics are you doing, not doing your job...... I look at him, it's just not going to work anymore......"
There are also some people who take the comics of "Avatar" and put them on the Internet to discuss with more people, so many ordinary moviegoers and fans also know that the comic work "Avatar" is actually developed by Chen Feng.
As a result, many ordinary movie fans and viewers also ran to buy this book.
Then, many people in the entertainment industry also followed the trend to buy books, after all, this is something that Chen Feng made, and it is beneficial to take a look at it in advance first.
Although Chen Feng's last "Moon" did not do very well, in the eyes of many ordinary star actors, Chen Feng is still a film investment boss who cannot be ignored, if you have the opportunity to befriend him, you can't miss it anyway.
And after some celebrity actors bought the book, they also posted the news that they had read "Avatar" in their scarves or circle of friends.
This wave directly drove the fans of these star actors to buy books one after another.
At this time, I have to sigh that the stars' ability to bring goods is really strong, a book costs more than 20 yuan, and it is not expensive, and the star actors I like buy it, and of course I have to buy it as a fan, so in a short period of time, the sales of the first comic work of "Avatar" have directly increased several times.
Even the publishing house's inventory was in a hurry, and it began to be reprinted urgently overnight.
Soon, the genuine sales of the first comic book of "Avatar" have exceeded 100,000 copies!
In today's Internet era, physical books have exceeded 100,000 copies, which is already a good sales, and it can even be said to be popular.
This kind of grand occasion even made Chen Feng a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect that the book would suddenly sell so well.
……
Of course, the popularity of "Avatar" comic works has also brought some bad effects.
For example, pirated books, some inferior "Avatar" works have also begun to circulate on the market, which has greatly affected the reputation and sales of genuine comic books, because the quality of pirated comic books is extremely poor, and many people feel that this is the "Avatar" that has been blown very hot?
Average.
It's a pity that these people will never be able to enjoy the ultimate beautiful experience of reading genuine books.
In genuine books, the colors of the comics are brighter, the pictures are clearer, and some paintings can even be appreciated as works of art, which is a reading experience that you can never experience when watching pirated copies.
At the same time, what makes people feel even more unhappy are those works that follow the trend.
"Avatar" is very popular, isn't it? It depicts an alien fantasy world, right? Okay, I'll do it too!
Anyway, there is no restriction on the subject matter and content, if you publish an "Avatar", I will publish an "Akida", or publish another "Avanti"?
In short, the story style and world view structure are very similar to "Avatar", but the specific content details are not exactly the same, and it is easy to get confused when everyone buys the book.
I originally wanted to buy "Avatar", but when I bought it home, it was a copy of "Avanti", and I asked you if you were angry!
Moreover, the quality of the content of these follow-up books is generally very poor, after all, unlike "Avatar", which was carefully designed by Cuaron for several years and painstakingly, most of those more stylish productions are full of loopholes and the painting style is also very bad.
But there is no way, people can make a wave of money by relying on this trend.
