Although Christmas is a foreign product, it is indeed a very popular holiday in --- of Japan, and there is no way to do it, whether East Asians admit it or not, the mainstream culture of the world is still Western culture. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Truth be told, Christmas doesn't matter much for otaku, in many cases otaku can be about the same as a single dog, for them, the real party is on the 28th and 29th after Christmas.

This year's winter CM is held at this time.

ICMARKET is generally held twice a year, with the summer CM being held from the second Friday to Sunday of August each year, and the winter CM being held two or three days at the end of December.

Today's icmarket, the number of participants may not be as large as the 600,000 in later generations, but there are still 20 to 300,000 people, so CM has been turned into a holy war by countless otaku, which has the love and reverence for it, as well as the bitterness and pain of fighting to buy in it.

Doujinshi, handmade accessories, doujinware, comics, anime, non-game pop music, and more can be sold at doujinshi.

Although the official statement is that the individuals and fandom organizations on the CM are selling these goods in a non-profit manner, in fact, making profits while having fun is the common pursuit of most people, and even if it is selling doujinshi, the tax department is still acting, and the tax should still be paid.

So at the end of the day, it's an economic transaction.

There are also a lot of talented cartoonists who draw the same exhibition.,Many well-known cartoonists are from the same exhibition.,For example, Chai Menwen (Tokyo love story,TV series are more popular than comics)、The famous Takahashi Rumiko (this goes without saying)、CLAMP (magic card girl Sakura、Wing Chronicles、Humanoid computer angel heart、April 1st supernatural event book、The most famous is Lelouch's character design),In fact, in the original world,Even Yumino Chika has been active on CM,It's still the same people who draw the slam dunk series.。

Because they want to use otaku as the diffusion target of influence, Miyahara Shizune decided to participate in this year's winter cm, so they prepared works like Yuannoku. The work or product should be targeted, which can be regarded as consumer segmentation.

Therefore, the goods they prepare for sale are as follows:

The first volume of the edge of the void 1000 volumes.

Two CDs of Fate and Crown of Guilt are sold in a bundle of 1500 volumes.

There are 100 figures each of Rin Tosaka, Illya, Saber, and Kasuke.

In addition, there are two special items.

The edge of the sky is aimed at the average otaku who don't know about the Hibiscus Society, while the latter two are aimed at the readers of Summere.

This is only the initial quantity, and since there are two days of exhibition, Miyahara feels that if it sells well, the number can be increased.

In fact, at this time, there were only a handful of official organizations participating in the CM, and perhaps the Hibiscus Society was the only one, so they were given two days to participate in the exhibition.

There are three people who are mainly responsible for this matter on the Hibiscus Society's side: the first president, Miyahara Shizu, the second assistant to the president, Miyahara Jun, and the third editor, Akizuki Daisuke.

December 27th.

"Are we loaded with all the goods?" Standing downstairs at the Hibiscus Society, Miyahara Shizune looked at the truck in front of him and asked Daisuke Akizuki.

"I've checked and there's nothing left." Daisuke Akizuki said.

"That's good...... But those two special items, be careful not to break them on the road, I made them at my own expense. ”

In fact, no matter how high the price of these things of the Hibiscus Society is and how much sales they can get, no matter how they look at this exhibition, it is a loss-making business, and it is impossible to recover the cost of making PV alone, which is a propaganda act in itself.

But even so, the company's money is the company's money, and Miyahara Jing can't squander it at will, fortunately, he earns a lot of manuscript fees as a cartoonist, so he paid for two special things by himself, and he has the right to be a hobby.

"Jingjun, do you think we can sell out of things?" Daisuke Akizuki asked with some concern.

Approaching 3,000 items, Akizuki Daisuke didn't think it could be sold out, and his influence in the fan exhibition, a small publishing house like Hibiscus Society was definitely not as good as those famous fan clubs.

"Don't worry.,I'm sure I'll buy it.,In fact, I also let the printing company be on standby at any time.,Once the first day is gone.,The next day we can also print a batch of goods.,As early as October.,Simari has already begun to publish the news that we're going to participate in C47.,And called on our readers to participate.,You know,Japanese --- myself, especially anime lovers.,There's always no resistance to words like the special ah the first limited edition.。

That's right, he did post this on Celerielle, just in case there was a real cold spot. Even if you participate in the fanfic exhibition this time, you shouldn't fail if you don't succeed.

And from the feedback, it seems that some readers have made it clear that they will go to C47, so most of the goods should be able to sell.

"Understood, then I'll go to Harumi." Daisuke Akizuki got on the co-pilot of the truck, and then escorted the pile to the Harumi venue.

At this time, Jun Miyahara was setting up a booth over there, and as a regular publishing house, the Hibiscus Society got quite a wide space - of course, this is compared to the average exhibitor and fandom club.

…………

The next day, C47 officially began, and Miyahara Shizune and Miyahara Jun set off from home very early and arrived at the Harumi venue at 6 o'clock.

At this time, the otaku are already on the move.

Today's main work is done by 6 people, Jun Miyahara, Nahoko Ueda, and Katsura Ono, who are in charge of merchandising, Daisuke Akizuki, who is in charge of the overall scheduling, and Shizu Miyahara, who claims to have an overview of the overall situation and actually has no specific affairs.

Ueda and Ono were brought in by Miyahara Shizuki to help.,It's a friendly help.,Although they're cartoonists under the Hibiscus Society.,But in fact, they don't have to help in this kind of thing.。

By the way, as a pure and loving sister, Jun Miyahara has a slightly different attitude towards his younger brother who can paint such magical works after seeing the emptiness of Yuanzhikong, and Miyahara Jing seems to feel that the other party looks at him with a little contempt and vigilance...... Well, very contemptuous and wary.

That look in his eyes made Miyahara's liver ache from time to time.

But Miyahara Jing didn't explain anything, in order to clear up her sister's misunderstanding, so Miyahara Jing decided to let her specialize in selling the comics of the edge of the sky.

The detailed work at the fandom exhibition was arranged a few days ago, and the reason why Miyahara Jing came to the venue early was to prepare early, and second, he wanted to go around in advance and find a sense of jihad in advance.

It's a pity that after a hasty half a circle,To be honest, Miyahara Jing was a little disappointed.,It's not that there's a problem with the quality of the book.,In fact, he didn't have time to read any book.,Mainly because he can't find a sense of belonging.,This has no friends and few meat classmates.,There is no book.,Ship Niang Dongfang Tianma, these main combat forces are even more of an era when there is no one.,It's too helpless.。

Then, as he was about to go back, he was surprised to see Conan's notebook.

You know, this is a work that has just started to become popular.,And drawing a book for elementary school students.,It's just too beast.,This kind of thing...... Miyahara decided to take two glances and leave.

Then in front of this booth, he heard a small understatement from a certain classmate:

"Elementary school students don't let go, it's too dirty, at least three years, and at worst it's indefinite!"

This exclamation itself is nothing, at best, this otaku is a little disciplined, but Miyahara Jing is curious that this sentence is in Chinese.

"Chinese?" Miyahara couldn't help but ask.

You have to know that if you want to gain the favor of Chinese, the first step is actually very simple...... Well, that's to speak Chinese, if you can speak it very fluently, then the friendship index can soar directly by 180%, if you can make a few more dialects, it will be out of the table, this buff is best used by Europeans and Americans, Russians, Pakistanis, Arabs, Thais and even Vietnamese, Koreans are actually good, but there is only one exception in the world, that is, the Japanese --- himself, this is a special case contrary to the general law, as a Japanese --- himself, why are you so slippery in Chinese? Are there any bad intentions?

The classmate turned his head in surprise.
