The base color with unusually low saturation and a hint of warmth in the shadows give the whole picture a faint sense of transparency.

The main screen, which uses the impasto painting method, depicts Lishi and Kaneki.

With a sweet, but unusually eerie smile, Lishi held Kaneki in his arms like a cute teddy bear, and his long lilac hair hung down on his white custard-like arms and landed on Kaneki's shoulders.

Kaneki's eyes were closed in the human part, and his head was slightly raised in an unconscious state. The eyes of the mew species opened uncontrollably, revealing a red pupil that seemed to be about to burn. What's even weirder is that no matter which angle you look at the book from which angle, that eye looks like it's staring at you.

Such a cover is also a complete adventure for "Shangjing Boy". As the first issue of Zhao Pang after taking office, this issue of the magazine is of great importance to him.

Under such circumstances, he let a comic like "Shangjing Ghoul" that did not conform to the original style of "Shangjing Boy" be published. And whether this comic will become a thunderbolt that comes out of nowhere, or a squib, no one can predict yet.

In the beginning, it was only the original readers of the magazine and the readers of NEXT who were buying "Shangjing Boys".

"Shangjing Ghoul" did not receive much support in the fan base of the original "Shangjing Boy". After all, most of them are lovers of royal comics.

A small number of them have become avid fans of "Shangjing Ghoul", and they are crazy like their friend Amway's work.

Some cult fans of "The Walking Dead Show" began to buy the magazine of "Shangjing Boys" after being amway.

Although because "The Walking Dead" was released first, the impact of "Shangjing Ghoul", which appeared second, was much weaker, but as a rare dark comic on the market, "Shangjing Ghoul" quickly captured the hearts of these people.

And "Shangjing Ghoul" has been carefully created by Li Er and Illya. has figured out to the peak, whether it is the plot or the picture, there is nothing to change.

Now, the hard work they put in has finally won the harvest day.

Facts have proved that the strict requirements for oneself will eventually be seen.

Two days later, "Shangjing Boy", which was still lagging behind in sales this week, gradually began to catch up with "Demon City Boy".

Three million, three million 1 million, 3.2 million ...... real-time sales of "Shangjing Boy" exceeded the highest sales value of the previous period, and it is still rising.

This is the first time for "Shangjing Boys" who have experienced "The Walking Dead Show".

Next, some comic critics who have watched "Shangjing Ghoul" in the media have a series of praises for "Shangjing Ghoul" with excellent pictures and compact story. And in the evaluation of manga lovers, "Shangjing Ghoul" also won the highest rating!

The fermentation of word-of-mouth has also driven the sales of the magazine.

Even if some people are disgusted by the depiction of bloody scenes in "Shangjing Ghoul", he does admit that the comic genre of "Shangjing Ghoul" is unique in the entire Chinese comic book industry.

Three million eight thousand, three million nine million!

The growth rate of sales of "Shangjing Boy" has not slowed down at all, but has broken the ice at a steady speed.

After the final sales results came out, the sales of "Shangjing Boy" won the first place with a sales volume of 4.5 million, beating "Magic City Boy" by a small margin of 100,000 copies. This is also the first time they have won from "Demon City Boy" after the failure of the previous issue.

This qiē is all due to "Shangjing Ghoul". If it weren't for "Shangjing Ghoul" to make up for the shortcomings of "Shangjing Boy" without cult comics, it is very likely that they would have to repeat the mistakes of the past.

This made Zhao Pang firm in his determination to reuse Li Er. Last time, "Shangjing Boy" was also because of "Wanyou King" directed by Li Er, which had a significant increase in sales. This time, it is again relied on Li Er's works to turn the tide.

Both times relied on Lear, if it is a coincidence, who can believe it?

The biggest mistake of former editor-in-chief Bao Congyun may be to stubbornly deny such an excellent young man. Otherwise, if he had put "Shangjing Ghoul" in the last issue and serialized it in a weekly magazine, he might not have failed so badly.

……

On the scarf, there began to be some fanatical research parties, and they found out the source of the scene in "Shangjing Ghoul".

Even Li Er didn't expect that some of the places he was looking for in an unknown alley would be picked up by enthusiastic citizens of Shangjing in less than three days. And there's nothing wrong with every single one.

In many places, he didn't know what his name was, but he was also found.

The fans of Shangjing are very excited, because these are the scenes around them!

Fans of Shangjing organized themselves in the circle and specially planned a route to worship the famous filming locations inside.

This kind of behavior is the first time in China. Because there has never been a comic like "Shangjing Ghoul" before, which references so many scenes in one city. And put his own comics in the real Shangjing City.

Many people are more accustomed to painting in an alternate city, and it is easier for weekly writers to do so.

However, there are good things about referencing reality. For comic fans, the feeling of experiencing the route taken by the protagonist in the manga in three dimensions is as if they have traveled into the comics, which the rest of the comics cannot bring them!

So there are more die-hard fans of "Shangjing Ghoul"!

And some of the places that were picked up have also quietly changed because of the arrival of comic fans.

The biggest change is probably the coffee shop that Li Er used as a reference.

The coffee shop that was originally opened in a remote alley was crowded by fans. The wild Dong Xiang was even photographed by many people and posted to the group.

Under the call of Dong Xiangjiang, many people from other places have no willingness to travel. I couldn't help but book a ticket to the north and make a special trip to see if the real person was so good-looking.

After such free publicity, the café's business is booming. I used all the outside space to put tables and chairs, but I still couldn't sit down.

Not everyone drinks coffee. Many comic fans who came all the way put down the coffee money and took pictures with a smile on a SLR. Just a tree that appeared in the comics, an interior, can make them excited.

Other locations have gradually changed.

Where Lishi was smashed, someone put black-and-white photos of Lishi and flowers on the ground.

Lishi pulled Kaneki over to think about hehehehe, and the unknown figure added a sign that said, "There are ghouls on the right, be careful".

There are also local tyrants who are not bad for money who made a special trip to the café to charter the protagonist seat for a year, which was specially reserved for taking pictures and appreciating.

Such a strange way of traveling has added a lot of TAG to the topic of "Shangjing Ghoul". Many people don't know what this act is called. A good deed person said that it might as well be called a "pilgrimage to the Holy Land".

As a result, the future famous "Holy Land Tour" activity kicked off because of "The Ghoul in Beijing".
