In the third week of the new semester, Meng Zhe was both busy and regular.

Every day, Meng Zhe, who got up early, would first go to Wufeng to watch and practice boxing, and then go to the school classroom to pretend to listen carefully, drawing the names of "Chess Soul" and "Light Girl".

"Chess Soul", which was originally scheduled to be the main theme of the trial issue, has been adjusted to "Go Boy", and Meng Zhe has no idea of continuing to draw "Go Boy" for the time being - the story of "Go Boy" has been very different from the original version, and if you continue to draw it, it will basically be all original plots, where does Meng Zhe have this space?

Therefore, "Go Boy" will only publish the drawn 50p short story in the first issue of the trial issue, and the second issue of the trial issue will be adjusted to "Chess Soul".

Every afternoon, Meng Zhe would go to Tianjiao Club to help - Kong Lan is still a complete novice to comic magazines, although those editors are full-time, they used to do comic book magazines, and they are also blind to comic magazines.

In short, with Kong Lan's decentralization and Meng Zhe's active participation, the first issue of "Anime Boy" was finally published on the weekend!

First of all, the original unattractive cover was replaced by a new version hand-painted by Meng Zhe. Speaking of which, Meng Zhe was greatly influenced by magazines such as "Weekly Shonen Jump" in the mud bombardment country, and the cover of "Anime Boy" he produced is very similar to "Weekly Shonen Jump......

However, after careful discussion between Meng Zhe and Kong Lan on the 'Anime Boy' logo of the comic magazine, they finally adopted three-dimensional brush characters. In order to get these words, Meng Zhe spent three days before he revised the effect that he was satisfied with Kong Lan and was satisfied with-

The final version of the "Anime Shonen" logo, although it is still written with a brush, has been modified under the manga technique to be inlaid with rivets, and the color is also very metallic and three-dimensional.

Through Meng Zhe's efforts, the classic and modern are perfectly integrated in this logo, and the advertisements in this TV are still the 90s when the company's CEOs personally went into battle to greet the people of the country with a red background, such a magazine masthead can definitely be refreshing and unforgettable!

Under the logo, there is a large gathering of anime characters that will appear in this issue of the trial issue.

With four "Light Girls" as the core, the two male protagonists of "Dream Eaters" on the cover; Jiang Liuer in "Go Boy"; The old master, the big sweet potato and Mr. Qin in "Old Master" ...... and other characters surround it.

Under Meng Zhe's intentional design, the two protagonists of "Dream Eater" are the most conspicuous, and the most prominent of the two is the first male protagonist who does pen and painting.

Originally, there should have been Huang Yulang's "The Legend of the Son of Heaven Ji Fa Chapter", but when the first edition of the sample magazine was taken for review, "Ji Fa Chapter" was judged by the relevant departments to be unable to be published, because the painting of Da Ji in it was too H.

Kong Lan couldn't do anything about this kind of thing, so he could only contact Huang Yulang in Hong Kong, hoping that Huang Yulang could remake a clean version of the first word, but the first issue of the journal obviously couldn't be published.

……

Normally, the number of pages in the first episode of the comic will be much more than 19p, and there will be an attractive homepage. For this reason, although there are only four manga arranged in the inaugural issue of "Anime Shonen", the thickness has reached more than 130 pages.

In addition to the manga, the inaugural issue is also interspersed with sensational title page inaugural words, the "Kiin Cup" Go Manga Award Call for Papers, the magazine's normal call for papers, the famous manga artist introduction of the "Osamu Tezuka Chapter", the introduction of manga tools and basic terms, and the most popular manga questionnaire in this issue...... And so on.

In the end, the thickness of the entire comic reached two hundred and four pages!

As for the price...... Price: 4.8 yuan.

"Because of my sister's relationship and the fact that the Chinese Chess Academy has greeted the relevant departments, the review has finally been passed! Xiao Zhe: When do you say it's better to release the trial issue? ”

Kong Lan looked at the trial issue of "Anime Boys" as if he was looking at a large pile of gold, silver and jewelry.

"The sooner the better! It's already impossible to catch up in the middle of the month, so it's better to catch it at the end of the month. Normally, it would be better to have a new magazine trial of about 6 issues, but I don't think we need to try it for so long, so we will give away two issues for free, sell two issues at half price, and sell two issues at full price, which happens to be in 1994 in the solar calendar...... Sister Lan, what are you talking about? ”

Meng Zhe put forward his idea, and he naturally hoped that "Anime Boy" would get on the right track as soon as possible.

Kong Lan, who listened to Meng Zhe's opinion, thought for a while and said, "Three installments for free, and then three installments at half price!" ”

This is actually not a big problem, Meng Zhe said that it is only two free issues, but in fact, it is the problem of Kong Lan's funds. After all, Kong Lan's total funds are only about 600,000 yuan, and if there is no income for too long, the magazine will collapse because of the broken capital chain.

"Oh, Xiao Zhe, you don't have to worry about the problem of funds, I still have 300,000 yuan in hand, and the China Chess Academy promised to sponsor 20,000 yuan, plus after the trial issue was sent out, I will place a subscription order for the whole year in advance...... There is absolutely no problem holding it out until next year! ”

For a year-round subscription, the 24 installments only cost 100 yuan according to the preferential price, which is a little more than 15 yuan cheaper than the original price.

Although the original "New Comic Book Monthly" is on the verge of going out of business, there are still more than 80 readers who subscribe throughout the year!

"It's done! But Sister Lan, those printing equipment for printing anime characters for pillows, mugs, etc...... Don't forget to hurry up. When you arrive, you're almost ready to start selling peripherals, so there's no problem with the downstream supply, right? Meng Zhe said.

There is no way, and if you don't have enough funds, you can only find a way to open up more sources, otherwise if you can't even keep the magazine, then everything will be closed.

Kong Lan nodded and replied: "The two printing presses will arrive in early October, and I have already contacted the toy factory and the porcelain factory, so you don't have to worry about the source of goods." ”

Since Kong Lan has said so, then Meng Zhe is really no longer worried, and the next national free delivery of the inaugural issue is no longer something he can help with now.

According to Kong Lan's plan, she will distribute 20,000 yuan for free nationwide in the inaugural issue, and the cost price of each copy of "Anime Boy" is a little more than two yuan and five cents, and she will lose more than 150,000 yuan after three consecutive issues.

In the next three phases of half-price sales, although the loss is already very small, the loss is a loss, isn't it?

Meng Zhe estimates that from about the third issue, people will start to submit. According to the newcomer price of 50 yuan per ticket agreed by Meng Zhe and Kong Lan, this is also a lot of expenditure......

However, after the six issues are completed, it is almost ready to print the single books of "Chess Soul", "Dream Eater" and "Light Girl", although domestic piracy is now rampant to the point of outrageous, but how can there be some loyal readers who are willing to pay to support the genuine version?

Meng Zhe doesn't ask too much, each single book sells about 10,000 copies, and he can completely accept it.

Even if the price of a single book is pressed to ten yuan each, the cost of three books can be more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan, and with these former magazines, the basic operation of next year should not be a problem.

Although he has thought far ahead, Meng Zhe also knows that the premise of all this is that it is a few issues of the trial issue, especially the inaugural issue can be an instant hit!

But...... What kind of response will the current issue of this inaugural issue receive from readers?
