Chapter 160: The Japanese Market

Chen Lang has been relatively idle recently after finishing the fan club title of rank, and he basically has nothing to do except to conceive his fourth novel, so he spends every day with Tang Xiaobeautie.

After two weeks of sales, the "Zhu Xian" comic sold 150,000 copies in Hong Kong, which is only a little short of the Hong Kong sales record of Huang Yulang's "Dragon Tiger Gate", and it is believed that after the end of next week, the holder of this record will have to change the name of "Zhu Xian".

As soon as Chen Lang got home today, he received a call from Qi Wenjie, "Hey, is there anything wrong with Brother Jie?" ”

"Good news, great news." Qi Wenjie on the other side of the phone looked very excited.

"Isn't it the thing that "Zhu Xian" is going to set a record, by the way, congratulations to you, you killed your master and sat on the top spot." Chen Lang joked with a smile when he heard this.

"Ahem, ahem...... Don't be foolish, this comic was given to me by my master. But the good news I'm going to tell you today isn't this, it's another piece of good news that you would never have thought of. Qi Wenjie was very frightened by Chen Lang.

"What's the good news?" Chen Lang was suddenly puzzled, he and Qi Wenjie only seem to have an intersection of comics, what else can they do?

"Today, a representative of a Japanese animation company came to our company and asked for the distribution rights of "Zhu Xian" in Japan." Qi Wenjie said excitedly.

You must know that Hong Kong comics have never had a market in Japan,In the past, only Japanese comics occupied the Hong Kong market,Now Japanese comic companies want to take the initiative to bring Hong Kong comics back to Japan for distribution,It's really rare。

"Japanese animation companies want the distribution rights of "Zhu Xian"?" Chen Lang was also stunned when he heard Qi Wenjie's words.

Could it be that the quality of "Zhu Xian" has reached this level? But in any case, this is good news, and if the "Zhu Xian" manga can really open up the market in Japan, it will be a huge benefit.

You must know that Japan has always been an important market, whether it is music records or animated films, if its box office can really sell well, it may be comparable to the sum of the interests of Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, so the Japanese market has always been the focus of everyone's competition, and now there is a great opportunity in front of him, which naturally makes Chen Lang happy.

"Yes, isn't that good news?" Qi Wenjie also heard the surprise in Chen Lang's tone and asked with a smile.

"That's good news, indeed, but what does it have to do with me?" Chen Lang asked suspiciously after being pleasantly surprised.

"Because the representative of the Japanese company has indicated that he wants to meet you, the author of the original novel and the creator of the character." Qi Wenjie said in a quiet tone.

"Okay, when and where will we meet?" Chen Lang just didn't hear Qi Wenjie's grievances.

Because after the comic "Zhu Xian" became popular, everyone naturally got to the bottom of its author, and after learning that it was Chen Lang who provided the character design creativity and asked for a change in the painting style, everyone gave all the honor to Chen Lang, a young talent in Xiangjiang with a higher journalistic nature, and continued to start the god-making movement, and the real writer was ignored by everyone, which made Qi Wenjie disappointed.

Fortunately, Qi Wenjie is a sincere person, and he doesn't have much opinion on this, just occasionally makes one or two faint complaints, Chen Lang can only pretend that he didn't hear it, there is no way, brother has his own protagonist aura.

"It's in our company Yulang International, tomorrow is Sunday, you can come over at nine o'clock, and I will pick you up then." Qi Wenjie said.

"Okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow." Chen Lang replied with a smile, and then the two hung up the phone.

After Chen Lang hung up the phone, he called Manager Liu of Oriental Publishing House, "Hey, Uncle Liu, what are you busy with?" ”

"It's Lang Lang, I'm busy with the printing and publishing of your second novel "Ethereal Journey". Manager Liu replied with a smile.

"Oh, is Ethereal Journey ready for official publication too? Or do you want to publish the whole episode together? Chen Lang didn't expect Oriental Publishing House to publish "Ethereal Journey" so soon.

"No way, the company has just been established, although your "Zhu Xian" sold a terrible sales and made a big profit of five million, but most of the money was siphoned off by the "Oriental Daily", leaving only one million to the publishing house, and the several sets of series of books published by the company did not sell well, and now the company is in trouble, and can only use your "Ethereal Journey" to save the emergency."

Manager Liu said with a wry smile that when "Zhu Xian" was first published, it was a big hit, but the parent company was too ruthless in drawing blood, and the other series of books published did not sell well, and there were some signs of not being able to turn around for a while.

"I see, I have good news for you." Chen Lang didn't expect that the scenery of Oriental Publishing House would fall into difficulties under the surface, and he was still very grateful to Manager Liu Chen Lang, and it just so happened that his idea might be able to help Manager Liu.

"Probably good news? What do you mean? Manager Liu was stunned by what Chen Lang said.

"Today, a Japanese animation company came to Yulang International to ask for the distribution rights of the "Zhu Xian" comics, it seems that they also fancy the value of the "Zhu Xian" comics, I think if the comics sell well, can they also launch the Japanese version of "Zhu Xian" in Japan, if it can be sold in Japan, then it is really earned." Chen Lang said his thoughts when he heard this.

"So that's the case, but all this has to be the case when the comic "Zhu Xian" is a big hit, maybe the novel can be released." Manager Liu was a little excited to hear the news, but he was more hesitant, and his indecisive character was undoubtedly revealed.

"Uncle Liu, you are still hesitant at this time, if you don't show some courage, I'm afraid your publishing house will go bankrupt, I'm going to meet the representative of the Japanese animation company tomorrow, if you really want to fight, come to my house at eight o'clock tomorrow, and then go over with me to fight for this opportunity, if you don't come, then I can't help you." Chen Lang said helplessly.

"I ...... I'll think about it again. Manager Liu still didn't dare to make a decision, Chen Lang was speechless and hung up the phone with a straight "forget it".

Chen Lang shook his head and picked up the phone again and called Li Yuan, "Hey, Uncle Li, how is the production around "Zhu Xian"?" ”

"It's Lang Lang, production has already begun, and it is estimated that it will be officially sold in two weeks." Li Yuan said with a smile.

"Let me tell you something, the "Zhu Xian" manga is very likely to be released in Japan, you had better make some preparations, and these peripherals may be sent to Japan at that time."

"yes, that's great." Li Yuan didn't expect to hear this good news and exclaimed.

"It's just a bill, you can wait for my notice." Chen Lang was not very relieved about Li Yuan, and was not ready to take him to tomorrow's meeting, so he hung up the phone after speaking.
