In the office of the editor-in-chief of the comic book weekly, the editor-in-chief is refreshed today.

Last night, he scolded the comic king in front of the TV, which made him very relieved, and he slept very comfortably at night.

"What a garbage comic deserves to be treated like this!" The editor-in-chief sarcastically said in his heart.

Walking into his office and turning on the desktop light brain on his desk, he asked the intelligent program to automatically retrieve information about the comic king.

Before he started browsing, he was still thinking to himself: "After what I said last night, many people must have recognized the essence of the manga king by now, right?" Or the comic book is more artistic, everyone should hurry back to the embrace of art! ”

With that, he began to browse through related news and posts.

Then the editor-in-chief couldn't help frowning, revealing a shocked expression-

A post: "I watched the show Urban Topics last night, and I listened to the editor-in-chief introduce the manga king, and I feel that the story of Dragon Ball is so interesting, who knows where to buy this magazine, I must buy it and take a look." ”

A meager retweet of tens of thousands of pieces: "I like Sakuragi Hanamichi so much, I didn't know that someone had created such a personality, I really want to thank the editor-in-chief of the comic book magazine!" ”

A forum message: "Where can I buy the magazine of the comic king?" Hurry up and get a copy, listen to the editor-in-chief talk so much, I feel that this magazine is really interesting! ”

The editor-in-chief's face darkened.

What made him even more angry was that he also saw someone commenting: "The editor-in-chief of the comic book weekly is clearly advertising for the manga king, and the identification is complete!" ”

"Who's advertising that junk magazine!? This is a frame-up, this is definitely a frame-up by Chi Guoguo! The editor-in-chief felt that he was about to have a heart attack, and then he couldn't help but sigh, "People's hearts are not ancient, people's hearts are not ancient, and garbage like comics can be so rampant!" ”

The editor-in-chief felt extremely angry all day.

However, at such an old age, he still knew how to cultivate his mind very well, and when it came to the afternoon, his angry mood finally calmed down a little.

"Comics, this kind of thing, just appeared, everyone just feels novel, it won't be long before everyone gets bored, right?"

He comforted himself with this.

And at the end of the day, the assistant secretary suddenly knocked on the door of his room.

"What's wrong?" The editor-in-chief asked calmly.

"Editor-in-chief, I would like to report to you on the sales of our new issue today...... the assistant whispered.

Today is Wednesday, the day of the new issue of Comic Book Weekly.

However, the magazine's sales have always been stable, with an average circulation of 800,000 copies per issue, and almost 400,000 copies on the first day they hit the shelves.

Normally, this kind of data assistant doesn't report to the editor-in-chief at all, but what's going on today?

The editor-in-chief's heart moved, could it be that his words on the TV station yesterday attracted people's interest, so the sales of the comic king skyrocketed?

I didn't expect my words to play such a big role!

"How's the sales going?" The editor-in-chief asked the assistant with a smile.

"Today's new magazine shelves seem to be selling less than usual...... assistant continued.

"Low!?" The editor-in-chief's body shook, "Low ...... How much lower? ”

"Ten thousand copies lower." The assistant continued.

Hearing the figure of 20,000 copies, the editor-in-chief suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "It's just 10,000 copies, this fluctuation is normal." ”

"But......," the assistant hesitated and continued, "I just checked the sales records of the newsstands of major bookstores, and found that there was no significant drop in sales in other parts of the country, except that the sales of magazines in the Yanjing area had dropped by more than 10,000 copies compared to the usual average. ”

"Only in this area of Yanjing has a 10,000-copy drop in magazine sales?" The editor-in-chief was stunned for a moment, and some didn't understand how this could happen.

In the Yanjing area, each issue of the comic book weekly can sell 70,000 copies, and generally 30,000 or 40,000 copies will be sold in the Yanjing area on the day it is put on the shelves, and there is a shortage of 10,000 copies at once, which is much more serious.

The assistant glanced at the editor-in-chief and reminded more carefully: "Editor-in-chief, this program of urban topics is only broadcast in the Yanjing area......

"What!" The editor-in-chief immediately understood that Yanjing's sales did decrease because of the urban topic program he participated in yesterday, so many people gave up the comic book weekly and went to watch the comic king instead.

understood what was going on, but the editor-in-chief was even more confused: "How is this possible?" I obviously criticized the manga harshly last night, but why do so many people still want to read it? This...... What's wrong with this world!? ”

The editor-in-chief felt that this kind of thing was unimaginable, and his face became more and more difficult to look at.

And the assistant had a more fatal blow here, he looked at the editor-in-chief, hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind, and continued: "Editor-in-chief, there is one more thing to report to you. ”

"Tell me something." The editor-in-chief said weakly, is there more bad news than a drop in sales?

It turns out: there is.

"The King of Comics printed another 50,000 copies this morning, and their magazine is now mainly sold in the Yanjing area, and the magazine has just hit the shelves at noon, and according to my statistics, it has sold more than 20,000 copies so far......," said the assistant.

One of the meanings in his words has been clearly expressed, that is, the plummeting sales of Comic Book Weekly seem to have been transferred to the manga king.

Some users who originally read comic book weekly began to switch to the manga king.

"How so?" The editor-in-chief was dumbfounded.

He knows that many people only choose one book a week when they read magazines, and those who originally chose Comic Book Weekly may think that Comic Book King is more beautiful, so they choose Comic Book King and will not buy Comic Book Weekly again.

But why did they abandon Comic Book Weekly?

He felt that he had lived so long and had never encountered something so incomprehensible.

Yesterday, I was sarcastic about the king of comics in that show, but how did more and more people buy it!

This...... It doesn't make sense at all!

The editor-in-chief asked the assistant to go down first, and he began to mumble to himself: "What's wrong with this world...... What's wrong with this world......"

Soon, he found a reason for himself.

"Novelty! It must be that I said something yesterday that made many people feel novel, so I want to buy the manga king for the time being, and when they find out that the manga king is not very good, they will definitely return to the arms of the comic book weekly! ”

The editor-in-chief said so.

But......

A few days later, the second installment of Manga King was released.

Magazines are on the shelves of major bookstores and newsstands in the morning, and in the evening there is a sales statistics.

"They printed 80,000 copies of the second issue of the magazine, and in the half-day from noon to now, they have sold ......."

The assistant secretary looked at the values in his hand, and then looked up at the editor-in-chief: "They bought 45,000 copies in one day!" If you look at our magazine, it is very likely that they will sell 90,000 copies in Yanjing! ”

90,000 copies in the Yanjing area!

And the sales of Comic Book Weekly in Yanjing before were only 70,000 copies!

"There are still so many people who buy it......"

The editor-in-chief was even more distracted, browsing the news, and almost all of his admiration for the comic weekly made him feel very dazzling.

He struggled to calm himself down.

"Let's wait for Wednesday to see how our magazine sells!"

Two days later.

The latest issue of the comic book magazine hit the shelves, and the editor-in-chief got the sales data in the evening.

In the past, the number of copies sold on the day the magazine hit the shelves was between 30,000 and 40,000 copies.

But this time it was-

"The sales volume in the Yanjing area has fallen to ...... Nineteen thousand copies!? ”

The editor-in-chief almost screamed.

Sales on the first day typically account for half of all sales in this issue.

19,000 copies, doesn't that mean that the final sales of this issue of their magazine in the Yanjing area are less than 40,000 copies?

This is more than 30,000 copies from the previous average of 70,000 copies!

"This ...... What's wrong with this world!? The editor-in-chief sighed again.

Now the manga king is only sold in the Yanjing area, and if their sales open up and spread all over the country, it will completely overtake their dominance of 800,000 copies per issue of the comic book weekly...... It's going to be a breeze!
