177 [Huang Yulang said that there is pressure]

When the spring breeze is proud, the men's and women's weekly magazines are sold out of stock.

Huang Yulang also rudely threw the "Second World Boys Weekly" and "Second World Girls Weekly" on his desk rudely, and the door was knocked.

"Come in!"

A short time later, a staff member entered the office with some paper in his hand and respectfully placed the paper in front of Huang Yulang.

"Boss, here's today's sales!"

Huang Yulang didn't say anything, but quickly opened the papers, which recorded the sales of comics owned by Yulang Books. Huang Yulang's mind did not focus on other places, but directly found the paper that recorded the little rascal's first report, and looked at the dense sales on it.

Quickly skipped the small amount of numbers, and when he saw the total sales, Huang Yulang's eyes flashed a trace of tyranny, and the sales volume above was different from what he imagined, to be precise, it was low.

Before the release, major bookstores and newsstands bought a total of more than 30,000 copies of Little Rascals, but until now, the total sales have not exceeded the previous sales, only increasing the sales of thousands of copies, which is still due to the quality of "Little Rascals" and Huang Yulang's fame.

Huang Yulang's chest continued to rise and fall, and finally took a deep breath and said to the worker who inquired about the news: "Gu Zai, have you found out what I asked you to check?" ”

"I just went to the Win Dynasty Publishing House, and the publication of two magazines in this issue of the Second World has reached 20,000, and now the second batch of 10,000 copies is being produced!"

The staff who called Gu Tsai suppressed the apprehension in their hearts. The results of the investigation were stated.

"Well, got it, you're good to go!"

Huang Yulang took a deep breath. Didn't say anything. It's just that his face has become a little blue, although in terms of total sales, "Little Rascals" is obviously the first to dominate the second world weekly, but the growth trend is not as good, you must know that Little Rascals has been running serialized for three years. In other words, Huang Yulang is deflated, and with the quality of the two comics of "Second World", as long as he does not make mistakes, he is destined to soar.

But Huang Yulang is still quite unwilling, he naturally doesn't want to see the expansion of Second World Comics. That will inevitably affect his interests, and if he wants to dominate the Hong Kong comics market, he will inevitably end up in nothing.

And Huang Yulang didn't want his nemesis to be happy, he was happy. It's not good on your own.

You must know that under the kung fu effect of Bruce Lee's movies, there is a set of works that are enough to compete with the little hooligans - Shangguan Xiaobao's Li Xiaolong. So Huang Yulang decided to enlist Shangguan Xiaobao to cooperate. But at the same time, Huang Yulang's former owner Huang Guang was still interested in Li Xiaolong, so he was under the competition for the manuscript fee. Shangguan Xiaobao finally threw himself at Huang Guang with a manuscript fee of 1,000 yuan per issue.

When Shangguan Xiaobao has a stable income, he works harder. Li Xiaolong's sales reached 40,000 copies per issue, which was close to the little hooligans at that time. Because this makes Shangguan Xiaobao have the ambition to create the world independently. At the same time, Huang Yulang abandoned the comics because of his smug gambling and drinking, and his life was erosive. As a result, there was an incident of "the publisher's boss lady was drinking in front of her", accusing Huang Yulang of why the quality of the little hooligan comics declined, the loss of readers, and the relentless pursuit of the 'Li Xiaolong' comics. In the end, Huang Yulang cultivated his mind and devoted himself to the creation of the little hooligan.

Later, Bruce Lee's film had a wonderful nunchucks performance, and the little hooligan successfully grasped the reader's psychology and added nunchucks kung fu to Ishiguro Ryu, one of the Three Emperors of the Dragon and Tiger, which received a great response. And in the seventies to seventy-three. used Li Xiaolong as the cover. And by that time, the sales of the little rascals had reached the sixty thousand mark. Even after several price increases, sales still did not hurt.

1974 is next year. The story of the little rascals begins to enter the battle of the Japanese rakshasa cult. The book itself is more partially printed in color, the price is one yuan, and the average sales volume of each issue has reached the 100,000 mark.

However, no matter how high the sales of the Little Rogue comics are and how popular they are, they can never suppress Shangguan Xiaobao's Li Xiaolong comics, and the sales are still similar. However, in terms of momentum, the little hooligans still win. The more they painted, the more excited they became, and gradually they went overboard, until their heads burst and their foreheads cracked, and blood splashed everywhere, attracting the attention of the public.

For this reason, Huang Yulang thought that the name "Little Rascal" sounded a bit vulgar, so he replaced the name "Little Rascal" and officially changed its name to "Dragon and Tiger Gate" in the 99th issue; At the same time, he published his first comic daily newspaper, "Shengbao", which published an average of one edition of hooligan cartoons per day, and self-consciously reduced the violent and bloody scenes on the cover and content. At that time, the daily newspaper sold more than 50,000 copies.

The background of the story has also been moved from Hong Kong to the island country, indicating that the plot of the story is purely fictional and has avoided the criticism of public opinion. The single book of Longhumen was changed to 16 open horizontally, 48 editions, full color on the inner pages, and two yuan per volume.

Since the media focus on Longhumen, Huang Yulang's other works since that time have also become eclipsed. In fact, he also has "Iron Blood Mantis", "Iron King Kong", "The New Biography of Dragon and Tiger Gate", "Stinky Hong Kong", "Funny Comics", etc., in addition to "Shengbao", he later opened another comic daily newspaper "Jinbao". And he put it on the big screen for the sake of Dragon and Tiger Gate, but it was not well received.

As for Shangguan Xiaobao, who has been competing with Huang Yulang, he also ran a comic daily newspaper "Good News" to publish his Li Xiaolong, and continued to pressure Longhumen. As a result, Shangguan Xiaobao was crowned with the title of "Immortal Divine Skill". Because Longhumen swept the entire painting world in the seventies, it is still advancing step by step with a strong momentum, and only his Li Xiaolong is also.

But at this time, it was obvious that history was a joke, the two tigers competed, the whole situation was broken, Shangguan Xiaobao no longer fought alone, and joined the second world comic company under the emerging group Win Dynasty, and his strength soared. Not only that, but there is also a super black dragon that wins the disease, showing its teeth and dancing claws, crisscrossing the Xiangjiang River.

This is something that Huang Yulang absolutely cannot tolerate.

Looking at a plot map of the football player on the table, the green mountains are majestic, faint as ink, looming. When you get closer, there is a deep pool in a bay, rippling blue waves, and green pines and cypresses. Surrounded by peaks, curling smoke, slowly rising, Yao Wang is the stadium, there is indeed some scene. This win is worthy of being a genius in Xiangjiang, each picture is extremely skillful, the brushwork is gorgeous, the technique is used innumerable, the brushwork and ink are all old, the wind and bones are strange, the brushwork is beautiful, the ink is dripping, and the artistic conception is ethereal and unique style. Juran is the grandmaster.

Look at the Sailor Moon again, this portrait is delicate and vivid, and the expressions and movements of the characters are very realistic, especially the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of this girl, which are even more vivid on the paper. Coupled with fashionable fashion, coupled with a sexy sailor suit that has been transformed, the good-looking index is not as simple as one plus one.

It can be seen from Huang Yulang's vision that in fact, he is very respectful of these two comics, from the expressions of the characters, the actions and the meaning they contain, they are all very profound, it can be said that they are a pair of excellent works, and it is simply frustrating to draw cartoons to this, and they can all be taken to participate in international art exhibitions, and Nima also came to compete with Lao Tzu for a job.

Because of this. Huang Yulang's face is pale, and his painting skills are not as good as others, how can he not be angry.

He was furious and very imposing, but at that time, no one saw him play majestic, and he grabbed the two magazines in a rage and tore them to pieces.

In the flying of paper, Huang Yulang said coldly: "Let's wait and see, see who laughs for a long time!" (To be continued......)
