Chapter 102: The first batch of comics is on the shelves

Since November, the Comics Association has announced that it will cooperate with animation companies to develop and adapt popular comics, so that many people in the Federation who don't know much about comics have begun to pay attention to comics.

Since the new issue of the comic magazine went on sale in November, the sales of many bookstores selling comic magazines have found that since the beginning of this month, the sales of books and periodicals led by the three major comic magazines have increased by 10 to 30 percentage points compared with the past.

In particular, the serialized magazine that announced the first list of works for animation has seen a significant surge in sales, and it seems that the benefits of the cooperation with the Animation Association have been apparent so quickly.

The idea of using animation to raise the profile of the original manga was undoubtedly a strong test, and the two associations became more confident in working together.

On the side of the Entertainment Bureau, there is news that the animation and manga associations will be unified and called the Animation Association, which is the common name of the two in the king of the comics.

The new director, after taking office, did make a drastic transformation of the State Administration of Entertainment, and at the same time established preliminary negotiations with them.

In this initial cooperation, the two associations also saw the possibility of the development of animation and comics in the future, and some people have a default attitude towards the merger of the association, and trying to merge is also a way to strengthen themselves.

It can be said that November is the month of the rise of the Federation's animation, so that more people in the Federation can see that the Federation's animation industry is actually no worse than the film and television industry!

And November is also a very important day for Station P, because the first batch of comics signed by Station P has been serialized with eight words, and this Friday will be the time for the first batch of signed comics to be on the shelves.

The VIP content was officially opened at 12 o'clock in the afternoon, and the time has come to witness the success of the webtoon platform.

Noon has arrived, and the first batch of four comics signed will officially open VIP, and the ninth episode will be on sale.

The staff of the comic department of station P are nervously looking at the sales trend of several works, after professional calculation, the price of one episode of each comic is one yuan, excluding the manuscript fee for cartoonists, the cost of website operation server bandwidth, the salary and benefits of the company's employees, and the payment of entertainment tax 14%.

There are also a small number of premium members' subscription discounts,The results are that all the comics currently signed by Station P,The money spent,The average subscription of each comic needs to be about 10,000,Station P can achieve normal profitability and healthy development。

Now, the average collection of each signed comic has exceeded 80,000, and if you want to subscribe to 10,000, then it is at least 8 to 1 subscription ratio.

If calculated according to the general ratio of fifteen to one in federal online novels, then the comics on station P may only average 5,333.33...... Only half of the subscription to the qualified standard line!

Of course, the subscription situation of comics cannot be simply calculated by the general subscription ratio of online novels, after all, there is almost no commonality between the two industries, and moreover, P station comics are also the only ones in the industry who use an online platform to operate comics, everything is unknown.

Soon, the four comics that appeared on today's homepage began to appear sales data, and the staff in the background of the website were nervously looking at the numbers that began to beat.

The first batch of signed comics, to be honest, are the most ordinary quality works in the entire signed comic library, because they were in a hurry to sign the works at that time, it can be said that Xia Ziyu's review criteria for Yan Zhi and Li Yao are - the characters in the picture have not collapsed!

Even with such a low standard, at the beginning of the initial September of the station, only a few comics were submitted.

Xia Ziyu is also a little unable to sit still now, walked out of his office, in the office area of ordinary employees, you can see that many colleagues are nervously looking at the huge projection screens hanging on the wall, and now the information in the background of the website is being put there in real time, and all employees of Blue Star Entertainment can see the first batch of comic subscriptions of station P through that projection.

Pikapika comics have always implemented a free viewing policy for the first eight episodes, which has attracted many comic fans, and now it's up to us to see if we can convert these comic fans who have collected comics into consumers of these comics.

"Ahh

I don't know which female colleague shouted, everyone saw it at the same time, and in the projection, the numbers behind the four comics began to beat.

From the beginning, it quickly broke through the ten figures, and then in less than two minutes, the first place manga has reached the hundred, and the other three subscriptions have also broken through the hundred places with the previous works, and the slowest one only took five minutes!

It seems that the previous site-wide notification did play a role, and many comic fans came to subscribe as soon as the comics were put on the shelves.

These subscriptions are absolutely real, the federal comics industry does not have the business of Taobao swiping the list, and P station will not get some free coins to affect the normal sales of comics.

Xia Ziyu stood in the aisle of the work area, his eyes firmly fixed on the rising data, judging from the current upward trend, there may be a few comics that do not meet this standard line.

The number of collections of the four comics is from low to high: 46,000 for the male frequency group "The Swordsman and the Magician", 49,000 for the male frequency group "Oda-kun's Rampage", 53,000 for the male frequency group "Jigsaw Puzzle World", and 62,000 for the female frequency group "Thousand Birds' Flower Marriage".

The first comic with the first order of more than 1,000 is the highest collection of "The Flower Marriage of a Thousand Birds",Now on the shelves for half an hour,There are already 1,345 subscriptions,And the next one also has 1,079 subscriptions,The last two only have more than 40,000 collections,Not yet broken a thousand first orders。

An hour has passed, and the number one selling manga subscription has maintained a good trend, reaching 2,000, but the next three comics have slowed down the upward trend of subscriptions.

At present, the three fantasy comics with men as the protagonists all have a bit of a feeling of hitting the street, but the funny love comics such as the female-oriented love comic "Thousand Birds' Flower Marriage" are more popular with readers.

Of course, an hour's subscription does not show the final result of the comics, and even "The Swordsman and the Magician", which has the worst results now, cannot be said to reach 10,000 subscriptions in the future.

Frankly speaking, this data did not meet the expectations of the website, Xia Ziyu looked at the data above with blazing eyes, and thought in his heart that the current fame of Station P needs to be further expanded, and it seems that the "Stupid Quiz Summoning Beast" will also be drawn to attract traffic. There are only two or three super popular comics, and it is simply impossible to increase the consumer members of the website to 10 million in a short period of time.

However, it seems to be very hard to double open the serialization......

After just watching it for an hour, Xia Ziyu probably knew that maybe several works could reach more than 10,000 subscriptions, but it was just a matter of time, judging from the current subscription situation of several comics, at least the situation of webcomics is much better than that of online novels.

And the author of those comics, of course, was also nervously in front of his computer, refreshing the author's background.

The author of "The Flower Marriage of a Thousand Birds" is a single mother with three children, because she needs to take care of the children, so she chose a career as a cartoonist who can work at home, but because the remuneration for serialization in the magazine is too low, she learned that there is a website to receive the manuscript, and the manuscript fee is very considerable, she immediately switched to the arms of the online platform, as for the warning that she can't go back to the magazine serialization, she directly ignored it.

Looking at the subscription of her work,She breathed a sigh of relief,Her editor Miss Yan Zhi said,If the average subscription does not reach 8000,It may be cut in half,Now it seems,Her comics at least don't have to worry about being cut in half so soon,The living expenses of three children,The burden is really heavy,With the manuscript fee of P station plus the reward of comic fans,It can make her a lot more comfortable,Compared with the manuscript fee when it was serialized in comic magazines before,It's really much higher。

Don't think that webtoons won't be cut in half, you must know that most of the comics signed up are paid by the number of pages, and if no one reads them, the site will lose money.

Xia Ziyu's condition for cutting down is that the average subscription of three consecutive episodes is less than 6,000, and it enters the halving sequence, and the average subscription of five consecutive episodes is less than 6,000, and it is cut in half!
