Chapter 15: Soaring Sales

Two days later, that is, the day when "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" was on the table of "Good News Magazine", Zhao Chen got up early on this day, left the house with the sketches he had drawn in the past two days, and walked towards the bus stop.

I found two newsstands along the road, but I didn't see the figure of "Good News Magazine", and I didn't find it until the newsstand near the bus stop, which has to say that the influence of "Good News Magazine" in Xiangjiang is really very average.

In the newsstand, Zhao Chen bought the latest issue of "Good News Magazine", and stood next to the newsstand to watch it, and observed the people who came to the newsstand to buy newspapers or magazines.

glanced at the cover of "Good News Magazine", and felt that it was a colorful cover of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling wielding swords and swords, which looked more heroic and elegant. Zhao Chen just glanced at it, then opened the magazine casually and watched it absentmindedly.

Generally speaking, "Good News Magazine" is very ordinary, similar to most magazines in the world, and there is nothing brilliant about it, which is also where Zhao Chen is a little helpless. But even so, he won't care about this kind of thing, after all, "Good News Magazine" was not founded by him, and he doesn't have that obligation and responsibility!

In the observation just now, only two people bought this issue of "Good News Magazine", which is because the cover attracted them, after all, the painters of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" can be said to have surpassed this era for more than 20 years.

However, the two of them hurriedly bought the magazine and left, not watching it from the side like Zhao Chen at all, but planning to read it again on the road or on the bus.

In desperation, Zhao Chen had no choice but to get on the bus, planning to go to Chai Wan so that he could hand over the sketches of the past two days to Shangguan Xiaobao. And he also had a very crazy decision for other manga artists, that is, he was going to run a three-day magazine!

Yes, not a weekly magazine, but a tri-daily magazine, where the manga is published every three days. For most cartoonists, this is an impossible task, because even if it can be completed, it will often affect the quality of the comics, and it is precisely because of this extremely high difficulty that Niu Ma will achieve such a feat after more than ten years.

But this is not much difficulty for Zhao Chen, with his current degree, he can do the three-day magazine, if he has an assistant in the future, even if it is a two-day magazine, not only will not reduce the quality, but also will not reduce the number of pages of the magazine.

Not long after Zhao Chen got into the car, a young man sitting next to him suddenly put down the "Oriental Daily" in his hand, pointed to the "Good News Magazine" in Zhao Chen's hand and said, "Brother, don't you read it?" This cover looks good! ”

"I've seen it, I'll show it to you if you want to see it!" Zhao Chen could naturally see the young man's thoughts, but I didn't refuse, so I handed the "Good News Magazine" in my hand to the young man.

"Thanks, brother!" The young man thanked him and watched with a little impatience.

The first issue of "Good News Magazine" was only serialized for twenty pages, and the content in it was explained in one sentence that Yu Wenhua and the killing of Yangzhou Shilong wanted to seize the secret of longevity! But young people watch it with relish, because Yu Wenhua and the battle with Shilong are indeed more exciting, and the picture sense is also quite good, which shows the high painter of the cartoonist!

The most important thing is that it is still 1979 in Xiangjiang, even if it is a comic book lover, who has seen such a brilliant comic, and it is better than "Little Rascal" in terms of painting, because "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" was drawn after 20 years, which is naturally better than the current comics. In particular, the fight in the comic version of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" is even more exciting, which makes many readers who have read both the comic version and the novel version think that the comic version is more exciting, and it is strange that young people do not fall into it.

"Ah, why not, I'm seeing the key place! Did Yu Wenhua catch up with the seriously injured and escaped Shi Long? Have you ever gotten the recipe for longevity? Why did it stop at a key place? Alas, it looks like I'm going to have to wait at least a week, and it's not going to be easy! ”

The young man sighed lightly, he was a comic book fan, and this look directly made him like "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", the gorgeous pictures and the bloody fighting style all attracted young people and made him unable to extricate himself.

When the young man was about to return the "Good News Magazine" to Zhao Chen, he saw that several people standing next to him were looking at him, not so much looking at him, but looking at the "Good News Magazine" with a gorgeous cover!

"Dude, look at the way you just looked, this should be a good comic, can you lend it to me? Soon. A big man standing next to him suddenly spoke, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the "Good News Magazine", Kou Zhong, who looked fierce and mighty on the cover, attracted his attention, while the elegant and handsome Xu Ziling was directly ignored by him.

The young man didn't hand the magazine to the big man, although he was a little afraid of this burly man, but he still said helplessly: "This big brother, if it were mine, I would definitely lend it to you, but this magazine belongs to this brother, and I borrowed it from him just now, so I can't call the shots!" But this new manga is really good, especially in the painting and fighting, and I'll buy a copy when I get out of the car! ”

As soon as the young man said this, he immediately diverted the attention of the big man, and he said to Zhao Chen a little impatiently: "This little brother, can I borrow your magazine?" ”

"Yes!" Everyone said so, what else could Zhao Chen say, not only that, but he was happy to see it. Because as long as he gets more recognition, the sales of the magazine will also increase, and the more satisfied he will be in his heart!

"Thank you, little brother!" Dahan immediately thanked him, took the magazine from the young man's hand, and stood and read it.

"I really can't see it, this guy is also a comic book fan, and he really can't judge a person's preferences at will by his appearance!" Zhao Chen looked at the urgent action of the big man when he flipped through the magazine, and the fanatical expression on his face, he thought so in his heart.

What made him even more puzzled was that several men standing next to the big man stretched their necks one after another, and just looked at it like that, maybe they were too bored to stand, and at this time there were better comics to read, so they naturally wouldn't let it go.

"Thank you, little brother, this comic is really good! When I get off the bus, I'll buy a copy too! After a while, Dahan handed the magazine to Zhao Chen, with an honest expression of gratitude on his face.

"No thanks!" Zhao Chen took the magazine, just glanced at it, and found that the magazine was almost the same as when it was borrowed, without any traces of damage, and even the folds were barely visible; This made him have to sigh that people at this time were still very principled, just like the future generations as long as they lend things to others, and when they are returned, the new ones will become old, and they don't care about other people's belongings at all.

After turning a few bus turns, Zhao Chen spent more than ten minutes walking to the Holy Flame Publishing House with his unforgettable memory, and sometimes he really sighed that it was very convenient to have the ability to never forget.

"Zhao Chen, you're here just in time, sit here!" Seeing Zhao Chen come in, Shangguan Xiaobao immediately called him over, his face was obviously a little excited, he was now not only the owner of the Holy Flame Publishing House, but also the editor in charge of Zhao Chen, responsible for Zhao Chen's comic affairs.

The main responsibility of the comic editor is to edit the manuscript and typeset it. An issue and a volume of exciting or touching comics are also inseparable from the finishing touch of the editor, and the patient and meticulous review and editing of the comic editor. It can be said that the responsible editor has a great influence on cartoonists, which can save cartoonists from many detours, but this has undoubtedly a much smaller effect on Zhao Chen.

"Uncle Shangguan, what's wrong?"

"Just now, the staff of the publishing house came to report that today's "Good News Magazine" has all been out of stock, and several newsstand owners have called us to print and send it over! You say this is not a good thing, yesterday we printed a total of 20,000 copies of "Good News Magazine" as before, I didn't expect it to be sold out so quickly, according to today's trend, today's sales may reach 30,000 copies! This is all your credit, the response of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" in the market is quite good! ”

Shangguan Xiaobao had excitement on his face, and his mouth kept talking, as if "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" was painted by him. Of course, he is indeed very happy, Zhao Chen was signed by him despite the opposition of his three friends, especially Zhao Chen is still a cartoonist who was 'eliminated' by Yulang International Co., Ltd., which makes Shangguan Xiaobao feel like he has picked up a treasure, it is simply a gold paste on his face, and the future world will once again praise his wisdom of knowing people.
