The inaugural issue of "The King of Paintings" was like a thunderstorm on the ground, causing a violent sensation in the hearts of Chinese comic fans. At this time, Chinese teenagers have been cultivated by Japanese animation for many years, and have cultivated a large number of anime lovers, but they have never had a comic magazine like "Painting King" before, although compared with the comic book single book, the plot included in this magazine is relatively short, but you can see multiple comics at the same time, this advantage is how the comic book can not be compared, plus the 32 open "Painting King" is not only large enough paper, but also the printing is clearer than the general Japanese pirated comics that are currently popular in China, These advantages are enough to make Chinese comic fans willingly pay for the magazine and buy it home.

"Boss, do you still have "The King of Paintings" here?"

"Oh, it's a coincidence, just now a student sold the last copy, and I don't have any stock here."

"No, it won't! I've been running several bookstalls, and all of them are out of stock. ”

"I'm really sorry, next time I wait for me to buy, I must buy a few more copies, but I really didn't expect that this book is so easy to sell, it has only been purchased for less than three days, and all the books have been sold!"

No one would have thought that "The King of Paintings" would be so popular with readers, and the shipment of 30,000 copies of the first issue obviously could not meet the needs of readers. After knowing that the market feedback is so good, Wang Yongsheng immediately decided to double the shipment volume of the second issue, although the shipment of 60,000 copies is not much, but for a new animation magazine, this number is already quite considerable, you must know that more than 10 years later, some well-known animation magazines have sold only more than 100,000 yuan, and "Painting King" can have 60,000 sales only in the second issue of its establishment, which has fully demonstrated its potential.

It is particularly worth mentioning that many comic fans have learned to draw comics after watching "The Incompetent Jun Comic Research Institute", although in a short period of time, they are just fledgling birds, but one day, when the bird's feathers are becoming fuller, they will spread their wings and soar in the sky.

Under the care of readers, "The King of Paintings" has grown rapidly, and in the fifth issue of the magazine, its circulation has reached an astonishing 100,000 copies, but "The King of Paintings" has obviously not slowed down, and in the seventh issue of the magazine, the most popular comic book "Dragon Ball" among Chinese fans has landed in "The King of Paintings".

As a Japanese national name manga - the influence of "Dragon Ball" is undoubted, in China, even some teenagers who have not been in contact with comics know the comic masterpiece "Dragon Ball", and in the eyes of comic fans, this comic is an irreplaceable super masterpiece.

A large number of teenagers save money every month and save their pocket money, hoping to save enough 9 yuan and 8 cents to go to the bookstore to buy back a volume of "Dragon Ball" manga. However, to the dismay of the pirates, Dragon Ball is a manga that is still being serialized, and after the existing plots are assembled and published, the pirates can only continue to publish the book until Akira Toriyama draws enough new plots. However, "The Painting King" is different, as a semi-monthly magazine, he does not need to implement the "fattening and slaughtering" pig killing theory, but maintains the serialization speed that is almost in sync with the Japanese side, and puts "Dragon Ball" in the magazine. This way, those who have already waited for Dragon Ball fans will not have to wait any longer, but will continue to follow their favorite manga at almost the same pace as Japanese readers.

The news of the serialization of "Dragon Ball New Heroes" in "The King of Paintings" quickly spread in the hearts of fans, and some fans who were still skeptical of this magazine also resolutely devoted themselves to becoming fans of the King of Paintings. For example, at the newsstand where Junfei first bought magazines, almost every day, students ran to the female stall owner to ask questions such as "Is "The King of Paintings here?" and "When will it arrive?" Because everyone knows that if you don't buy the magazine on the day it arrives, and you want to buy it again the next day, it is likely that people will snap it up.

However, Xiang Junfei doesn't have to go to squat every day to greet like those people, the female stall owner has already told him that as long as the goods are purchased, they will leave a copy for him. In addition to the fact that Xiang Junfei often takes care of her business, it is also because the magazine "Painting King" introduced them to Junfei, otherwise people like them who don't know anything about anime, where would they know that this magazine will sell so well.

As soon as the bell rang after class, Ma Qiang quickly took out the "Painting King" he had just bought from the drawer, and flipped through it attentively, when he saw that Sun Wukong, who was cultivating in the world king realm, was also going to return to the world on the day of the first martial arts meeting in the world, the whole person suddenly "burned", and pounded the table vigorously and said excitedly: "No, no, "Dragon Ball" is so exciting, I can't stand it." ”

As soon as Ma Qiang shouted like this, 5 or 6 boys immediately surrounded him, and asked anxiously: "Where, where, is there any wonderful plot again?" ”

"Super exciting, do you remember the first few volumes of "Dragon Ball" in the world's first martial arts meeting? Now the new martial arts meeting is going to be held again, and this time Sun Wukong, Vegeta, Sun Gohan, Kobayashi, Piccolo and others will also participate in this martial arts meeting. If you think about it, now that Sun Wukong is so powerful that they can easily destroy a planet, they are about to fight in front of everyone, which will definitely be super exciting. I'll see how the cheeky Mr. Satan will justify himself next, haha! ”

"Wow! There will be another martial arts meeting, and now "Dragon Ball" is going to be in and out again, but I don't know which character will win the championship of this conference this time? ”

"Is that any use? It must be Sun Wukong, he can perform the second stage transformation of Super Saiyan! There is no one who can compete with him! ”

"This can be said, don't forget that Vegeta is also super powerful, although when he fought Sharu before, he was not as good as Sun Wukong, but now after a few years of cultivation, maybe his strength has surpassed Sun Wukong. Besides, there is Sun Gohan here. ”

"By the way, I almost forgot about Sun Gohan, he was already super powerful when he was a child, and now although he has lived a leisurely life for a few years, he should still have considerable strength, I don't know if the champion of the martial arts club this time will be Gohan."

"No, no, don't forget that the plot of "Dragon Ball" has always been unexpected, you can't guess the plot below him, I think it's hard to say the champion of this martial arts meeting, maybe the author will design some new powerful characters, otherwise these old people, the plot can't be unfolded, there must be a villain."

In this way, until the class bell rang, everyone had been discussing the plot trend of "Dragon Ball" enthusiastically. Although Xiang Junfei did not participate in the discussion just now, he has been carefully observing from the sidelines, and from the dedication of the classmates to the discussion, he vaguely felt why during the inception of "Painting King" in 93-94, it was unanimously regarded by industry insiders as the most prosperous period since the development of China's new comics, so that it was crowned with the title of Chinese animation 100-day restoration.

In fact, in Xiang Junfei's previous life, there were many animation fans, and even people in the animation industry couldn't understand why during the 93-94 period, the Chinese people were so tolerant and supportive of domestic comics, and with the suspension of "The King of Painting", everyone's recognition of domestic comics is getting lower and lower, so that many anime fans mention domestic comics, with a disdainful attitude of commenting, is it really because "The King of Painting" is so good that the domestic comics published in it cannot be surpassed by domestic comics in the future?

The answer is definitely no, in fact, many anime publications after that, including "Manyou? Comic 100%", "Bosom Friend Manke" and other domestic original comic publications are, in a way, comprehensively surpassing early comic publications such as "Painting King", Lin Ying, Zhu Letao, Kexin and other post-80s cartoonists, are also using their actual performance to prove that they are using their ability to take over the gun of the previous generation of cartoonists.

But even so, the evaluation of domestic comics by Chinese people is still at a very low level, and many comic fans will only think of Yan Kai, Chen Xiang, Free Bird and other domestic cartoonists who have performed well during the "Painting King" period.

You don't see Du Fu wrote the poem "But when I see the new person laughing, I hear the old person crying" in the poem "Beauty", it can be seen that it is the nature of most people to like the new and hate the old, just like Osamu Tezuka, although every comic fan thinks that he is a great comic master, but now how many comic fans discuss his works and discuss the profound connotations reflected in the works.

Why Chinese comic fans have such deep feelings for domestic comics and cartoonists during the "Painting King" period is, in the final analysis, because of the particularity of the times.

In the early 90s, computers were a luxury for ordinary Chinese families, and the Internet had not yet been established. In the eyes of parents, video games are equivalent to electronic heroin, most parents are doing everything possible to prevent their children from getting in touch with video games, and making games is naturally a good choice, but there is a premise that there must be enough playmates to be fun, whether it is playing football, playing basketball, jumping rubber ropes, peek-a-boo, it must be in the case of many people, to play sports games. If there's just one person, there's no better way to pass the time than watching anime.

It is precisely because of this innate advantage that when the new Japanese animation was introduced to China, its development momentum would be so rapid, and within a few years, the comic strips that had brilliant achievements were forced to the edge of the cliff, and the Chinese original comics were also favored and supported by the Chinese people with the help of that environment.

However, with the suspension of "The King of Painting", China's original comics have entered a period of suspension, although after several years of tossing, the country has gradually realized the importance of supporting local comics, but the times have changed. Computers have been popularized at an astonishing speed in the land of China, QQ chat, online games, Internet surfing, Internet has become the first choice for young people to relax, in the rental bookstores near major schools, the best-selling books are no longer comics or Jin Yong, Gu Long, Huang Yi's martial arts novels, but a variety of YY as the selling point of online novels.

In the face of various strong competitors, it is ten times more difficult for the domestic comics industry to produce a well-known cartoonist than it was back then; In addition, there are many comic fans who have been cultivated by Japanese comics for many years, and have developed a very high vision, and general animation works cannot enter their eyes at all, no wonder many cartoonists in the era of "Painting King" are extremely excited when they mention those glorious years, with an expression of reminiscing about the past and the eventful years.
