316 Okay, I'll Break Your Contract (Part I)

Jintai Book Building is the largest book mall in Yanjing, the mall is divided into five floors, one of which is a very empty hall, this hall often holds some writers' signing parties and other activities, generally high-grade writers will choose to put their own signing here.

In fact, being able to hold a book signing in Jintai also represents a standard for a writer's success.

At this time, the huge hall was crowded with people.

There is a book signing event being held here, and a book signing is held by the Manga Heavenly King.

The King of Manga has a total of five comics in a series so far, namely Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, Youyou Hakusho, Fengyun, and Batman.

These five comics have been very successful, each of them has gathered a lot of fans, and the manga king has been out of more than a dozen issues so far, and each comic has reached more than a dozen words.

More than a dozen words, enough to publish a single book.

Ye Chui had already kept his mother Zhou Yayun busy, but today it was finally printed and a signing party was held here.

Naturally, the five cartoonists who were present were serialized on the Manga King, including Fang Xi.

In addition, in addition to the comics, there are three other books that Ye Chui chose to release today, one is the street fighter novel version written by Bai Miyun, this novel is more than 100,000 words, Fang Xi specially drew a lot of exquisite illustrations, and the cover design is also very beautiful.

In addition to Street Fighter, there are also the first and middle volumes of the Legend of the Condor Heroes.

The Legend of the Condor Heroes has always been serialized on the website of Professor Fork Games, and now it has been serialized for 800,000 words.

This novel is more than a million words in total. Ye Trai originally planned to come out with a single series of five books, but when Bai Miyun's humanoid codeword machine was actually created too fast, Ye Trai's plan has not yet been implemented, and the number of words on her side has exceeded 800,000, so Ye Trai simply changed the original five books to three books in the upper, middle and lower books, each with about 400,000 words.

Now it is time to sell the first and middle two volumes that have been serialized.

At the same time, the story plot of the Legend of Jin Yong's Heroes developed by Ye Chui is also roughly in line with the content of the novel, so this set of RPG games is sold as a bonus with the book, on the one hand, Ye Chui wants to increase the sales of Condor Shooting. On the one hand, it is also to make a name for the RPG first.

Ye Chui is now developing the current price of the Legend of the Wonder in his hands. It is expected to be completed within half a month, because of the classic type of this game, Ye Chui has spent a lot of energy on it, so this game is both classic and sales. Ye Hang hopes that it can accomplish a miracle.

For the marketing of the fairy sword, Ye Chui also took a lot of thought.

Except for games. Now Ye Chui has also begun to let Bai Miyun start the creation of the fairy sword novel version. I plan to serialize it on the manga king at that time.

In addition, the famous theme song of the Sword and Fairy series is the theme song of Sword and Fairy (the theme song of Sword and Fairy III, but it is very good. So Ye Chui took it out first, you can go and listen to it Ha~~), and he has already let his sister Ye Ling sing it, and he plans to release it as one of the title songs in Ye Ling's first album.

All of this can be regarded as building momentum for the fairy sword.

This game has a strange feeling for Ye Chui, or for most Chinese players, and it is worth Ye Chui's great effort.

Today's book signing is still ongoing.

Book lovers in the hall are automatically divided into six teams, five of which are parties waiting for the comic book books to be signed, and the other team is a party to buy the Condor and Street Fighter novels on the same shelf.

Condor and Street Fighter were both written by Bai Miyun, originally Ye Chui hoped that Bai Miyun would also participate, but when he heard that many people would be present at the signing, Bai Miyun decisively rejected Ye Chui's invitation, and Ye Chui was also a little helpless about this, knowing that this girl had reached a certain level, so he could only go with her.

"It seems that this signing meeting was quite successful."

On the second floor of Jintai Book Building, there is a booth that can be used for resting and reading, and you can see the scene of the hall below through the railing when you sit in the booth.

Ye Chui sat in this booth at this time, looking at the scene of the signing meeting in the hall.

"Although the King of Comics has only been out for more than a dozen issues, it has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the single book is naturally very popular, and I expect that each of the five comics will sell more than 10,000 copies today." Sitting opposite Ye Chui is Ye Chui's mother Zhou Yayun, who is different from the casual appearance that usually sees her at home, she is now dressed in a women's suit, and after these months she has completely returned to work.

At this time, Zhou Yayun had a faint smile on his face: "Originally, I wasn't sure how many single books could sell, so only 50,000 copies of each book were printed, and it looked like it was going to be reprinted." ”

"The sales of the Condor and Street Fighter novels are also quite good, although there is no signing, but it should be no problem to sell tens of thousands of copies today." Ye Trai went on to say that he was very satisfied with the sales of the book, but Ye Trai did not have many surprises.

Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, Youyou Hakusho, Fengyun, and Batman are originally very famous comics, and it is normal for them to have such sales results.

Not to mention the Condor shooting, this new martial arts theme undoubtedly has a large audience in Huaxia, even the Street Fighter novel version has a certain number of fans, and it will be a big hit.

Zhou Yayun took a sip of the tea in front of her gently, and when she thought of something, she couldn't help laughing.

"Mom, what are you laughing at?" Ye Hang couldn't help but be curious.

"Nothing, just something came to mind." Zhou Yayun said with a smile, "After the appearance of our comic magazine, it was boycotted and confronted by many comic book magazines, but the single book of comic books, even if it is a signing meeting held by a famous master, may not be as popular as it is now. ”

The sales of the manga king magazine have been very smooth, and the sales volume of the weekly sales nationwide has reached 500,000 copies, and the number is still rising.

Ye Lobe knows. When Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, and Yuyou Hakusho were serialized together in the Shonen Jump Magazine, the magazine's sales exceeded more than 6 million copies.

How many people are there in Japan?

And now the main audience of the comic king is Huaxia, although there is no good comic foundation, but Ye Chui believes that good comics will definitely attract the love of others, when the sales of the comic king completely open up the situation, the sales volume of comics in a week may directly exceed the 10 million level.

Such a good form naturally makes a lot of old comic magazines extremely hot.

During this time, the king of comics has also received a lot of obstacles, but Zhou Yayun originally had some skills, but he passed it safely and did not have any leaks.

Ye Chui looked downstairs and saw several reporters interviewing the order of the scene, and he couldn't help but smile slightly. Similar to the editor-in-chief of the comic book weekly. When you see the report here, you won't feel good.

"That's right, Hammer." Zhou Yayun looked at Ye Chui here, and suddenly couldn't help but show a smile on his face. "Why didn't Nan Nan come with you today?"

Mother Zhou Yayun is very fond of Fang Nan. I can't wait for Ye Chui to marry Fang Nan back home.

"Huh. He can't come today because of something, so I'll take her home in a while. Ye Trai said with a smile, this is not an excuse. Today is Fang Bei's birthday, because of Fang Dong's hospitalization, Fang Bei has been in the hospital for the past few days, Fang Nan knows that Fang Bei has always been full of self-blame for this matter, so he specially made a cake for Fang Bei and sent it to the hospital, which can be regarded as celebrating her in the hospital.

After noon, Ye Chui also planned to go to the hospital, he had been thinking about Xiao Zhang's communication he had heard at the beginning for the past two days, and wanted to tell Fang Dong about it.

"Alas, Nan Nan, I and your father both like this girl very much, you have to hold me firmly no matter what." Zhou Yayun babbled, "I said hammer, why don't you get engaged first?" ”

"Mom, don't worry about these things, your daughter-in-law will definitely not be able to run, my relationship with Nan Nan is very stable, but for the time being, we are not very old, and we have no plans to get married." Ye Chui was a little helpless to agree, and the parents seemed to be particularly concerned about their son's marriage.

In his heart, he suddenly thought that his relationship with Fang Nan could not be further developed, Wang Shiyu, a little thing, still slept between the two of them every night, and he didn't want to think too much about getting married or something for the time being, the key was that the two had been together for so long, and that step should at least be done...... It's a handful of tears when you think about it.

Chatting with my mother about some things about comic magazines, although in terms of comic creation, Ye Trai has a deep insight because he has memories of another world, but for magazine sales, Ye Trai is far less professional than his mother, and during the conversation, Ye Trai also understands that his mother has her own plan for the sales of magazines, and she wants to gradually open up sales across the country, and even she has plans to launch it abroad in the future.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon.

At noon, Ye Chui and a group of cartoonists and employees of Comic King Magazine went to a nearby hotel for dinner.

Ye Chui has always been generous in this regard, and the signing is so successful, it is natural to treat everyone to a good meal.

Those cartoonists saw Ye Trai for the first time, and came over to greet Ye Trai one by one under Fang Xi's introduction.

They all understand that on the surface they are cartoonists, but in fact, their comics level is limited, and they are just drawing, which really determines whether a comic is popular or not, whether it is successful or not, or the storyboard made by Ye Chui.

The leaf lobe is what really makes them so popular.

Therefore, most of the cartoonists have great admiration and respect for Ye Chui, but only most of them, one of them seems not so happy.

This person is called Pu Hall, and he is the main writer of Batman in the manga king.

His painting style is very similar to the happy style, and the Batman he draws is quite tasteful.

At the same time, the man was very arrogant, and during the meal he seemed a little out of place with the others, did not talk much to them, and had an expression on his face as if someone owed him money - he was very unhappy, and he had a reason to be unhappy.

Drawing comics in the Comic King, it takes him several hours for a sketch, but the price that Ye Chui gave him was only one hundred yuan.

One hundred yuan a painting, this is in the past he will definitely be extremely happy, for him this is definitely a huge income, before this he painted advertising paintings, very low-level kind, a painting is only a dozen or so yuan, and it is not stable, Ye Chui here is a hundred yuan so that he once slept at night and woke up with a smile.

But man's desires. Hope can never be satisfied, with the gradual success of the comic king, his Batman is loved by more and more people, and he also has a group of fans to support, he feels that the price of another 100 yuan is a little less - according to the income of the comic king, Ye Chui can earn at least thousands of dollars for a painting!

Today's signing, seeing his enthusiastic book lovers, Pu Ting's heart is even more uncomfortable.

Why is this the only benefit you get from the most laborious self?

Ye Chui can get so much money just thinking about the story?

Finally, he made a decision and came to Ye Chui.

"Mr. Ye, I want my manuscript fee to go up, right?" Pu Hall said bluntly.

The hotel box was quiet for a while, and the issue of manuscript fees was also a sensitive issue.

Ye Chui looked indifferent: "I originally wanted to increase the manuscript fee with you, how much do you want to rise?" ”

A hint of greed flashed in Pu Hall's eyes, and he said, "A ...... A thousand! (To be continued......)
