Chapter 202 Personal Income Tax for Cartoonists
ps: Speaking of which, Osamu Tezuka was really unwilling when he hung up, because at that time Toriyama Akiyan zhòng threatened his position. The sales of "Firebird" are difficult to count, and the total sales of a single book should exceed 100 million. However, Osamu Tezuka's "Buddha" sales were much worse, this one ended in 1983, and I don't know how many manga magazines were harmed in the process of serialization, and even "Firebird" was also affected.
At this time, even if Takahashi Yangichi's nerves were thick, he could smell a 'gunpowder smell', and he knew that if he messed up this time, he might not know what else would happen later.
Helplessly, Yoichi Takahashi then picked up the original manuscript and looked at it carefully, before skillfully taking out various tools and starting to paint the background.
Yoichi Takahashi's hand was very fast, and this hand alone made many assistants show surprise. At least among these assistants, only one or two of them have reached the level of Yoichi Takahashi.
Forget about the hand, but the hateful thing is that somehow, Yoichi Takahashi's painting skills are also quite ingenious, masculine with softness, isn't this what Zhao Chen did for "Football Player"! This allows the background of Yoichi Takahashi to reach a rather striking level in terms of fitting Cheng dù.
Soon, the background of "Soccer Player" was painted.
Looking at the "Football Player" in front of him, which fits Cheng dù very high, the assistants looked at each other speechlessly, and finally their eyes subconsciously fell on a female assistant, she is the assistant of "Football Player", Youdie, who came over after Zhao Chen gained a foothold in the island country, is the most 'old' assistant of "Football Player", and is also the most 'old' among these assistants.
"The level is good!" Although the butterfly stays in the island country. I learned some simple Japanese vocabulary, but I usually communicate in English. Anyway, not one or two of these assistants can speak English.
As soon as Youdie's words fell, the rest of the assistants glanced at the assistant of "Football Player" with slightly complicated eyes, and then talked to Yoichi Takahashi and got to know each other.
This move made the assistant's face uncertain, and he really didn't expect that the background drawn by Yoichi Takahashi would be so suitable for "Football Player", and even the most 'old' Yudie here agreed, what else could he say, he couldn't try again. In the same way, he also knew that if he tried again, he would lose face.
That's the end of the turmoil of Yoichi Takahashi's assistants, compared to these assistants, Yoichi Takahashi's painting work can be described as quite solid, after all, he has been practicing comics since he was a child, and he has been a full-time cartoonist for two years, whether it is a painter, vision or ideas, he basically has to pass these assistants.
Time passes slowly. And on this day, it's the day of the weekly "Youth soRa" line.
SoRa has been running for two years, and although sales are increasing a little slower than before, it still has a large number of loyal manga fans.
It is precisely because of the drive and spread of this group of loyal comic fans that the sales of "Shonen soRa" will be so stable.
In addition, in the just-selected 1981 manga magazine total sales list, "Shonen soRa" ranked third this time. Compared with the 10th place of the previous year, it has risen a full seven places, which can be said to be a brilliant record.
In addition, Tianxia Club also has a comic magazine on the list, that is, the girl's semi-monthly magazine "ange1ings"!
Although it is only the tenth place, it is mainly due to the fact that "Magic Card Girl Sakura" is serialized in the second half of the year. Otherwise, the ranking may not be worse than "Flowers and Dreams", which ranks fifth, because the sales of each issue of the girl's semi-monthly magazine "Ange1ings" are no worse than "Flowers and Dreams". It's even going to be.
Of course, "ange1ings" entered the total sales ranking of manga magazines, and naturally one person was squeezed out, and that was Shueisha's monthly shoujo magazine "RIBon"!
In this way, in the total sales list, Tianxia Club has two places, and one of them is still the third place, and the other is likely to replace the position of "Flowers and Dreams" this year, which will feel terrible when you think about it.
Of course, in the total sales ranking, the White Springs Club occupies as many as three places, namely "Flowers and Dreams" in fifth place, "LaLa" in seventh place, and "younganima" in ninth place! It's just that the total sales of these three together are on par with "Young soRa".
As a result, in the top 10, the Hakusensha occupies three, the Tentensha, Shogakukan, and Kodansha each occupy two places, and Shueisha only has a pitiful one. If it weren't for the fact that "Shonen Jump" still firmly occupies the first place, it is impossible to say that Shueisha's manga artists will have some psychological changes.
The increase in sales of the semi-monthly magazine "ange1ings" will undoubtedly have an impact on other shoujo manga magazines, as many manga fans have snatched it from their rivals. Whether it's "Flowers and Dreams" and "LaLa" by Hakusensha or "Shogakukan's "Girl comInet", their sales have decreased to a certain extent in the last year.
Of course, the decline in sales of "Juvenile soRa" director zhì is undoubtedly more obvious, and the bitter masters are basically these comic giants.
What I have to say here is that although Tianxiashe's "Youth GA11OP" did not enter the top ten this time, it was mainly because "Ghost Eye Crazy Knife" only started serialization in the second half of the year.
The reason why the sales of "Youth GA11OP" have increased greatly is largely driven by Zhao Chen's fame, followed by the quality of "Ghost Eyes and Crazy Knife". If you're lucky, Shonen GA11OP could take a spot this year.
Of course, this time the total sales of last year's comic book were also counted, and the biggest winner this time is undoubtedly Zhao Chen, "Rebellious Lelouxiu" released a total of three single books last year, and achieved seven million local sales, which directly made it occupy the second place. If it weren't for the end, "Lelouch the Rebellious" could have occupied the first place.
In addition, "Baseball Heroes" ranked fifth, "Pokémon" ranked sixth, "Soccer Player" ranked eighth, and "Dragon Ball" ranked tenth. In other words, Zhao Chen's comics alone account for half.
In addition to these five Zhao Chen's works, there are also classic comics such as "Doraemon", "Alalei", "Oolong Police Station", "Fuxing Kid", and "Firebird" without Osamu Tezuka!
Osamu Tezuka is also very powerful, and he relied on "Firebird" to defeat a weekly and monthly magazine, so last year's "Firebird" only had two single books, and it was questioned by a manga fan, after all, the comic "Firebird" was too peculiar in that era.
There is no such thing as a manga artist occupying five places, and the last record was only two places. In this way, it has been directly increased to five, this record is almost impossible to break, and it seems that only Zhao Chen himself can be broken.
As a result, Zhao Chen's fame was further strengthened and consolidated, especially in the comic industry, no matter which cartoonist was quite polite after seeing Zhao Chen, it was really amazing what Zhao Chen achieved last year.
In the same year, the company's total sales increased several times, from less than 5 billion yen the year before to 3 million yen today. This total sales succeeded over the White Springs and was located under Kodansha.
Whether you admit it or not, Tianxia Society has the strength to become a comic giant, and what is missing is just the foundation, but the foundation is worth a few dollars. Whether they admit it or not, Tianxia Society successfully replaced Baiquan Society and became the fourth largest comic society in the island country.
Who would have thought that in just two years, Tianxia Society has become a behemoth, and this exhibition can be described as quite amazing.
In fact, although the total sales of Tianxia Club are only 30 billion, the profits are quite amazing, after all, the comic works with the highest sales are related to Zhao Chen. Even if it is a work with him, half of the income belongs to him.
I have to say that last year, Akira Toriyama put his comic work "Aralei" on the screen, which was the hottest manga last year, and was called the year of Aralei by many media. However, "Football Player" is not much worse, but the gap in the sales of local single books is a bit big, and it is not much worse than "Ala Lei" in terms of ratings.
Although Akira Toriyama shone last year and entered the top 10 manga artists in terms of personal income tax, according to history, it will become the first next year. However, the current Akira Toriyama has no intention of moving out of his original place, so there is no such thing as making people sweat. This incident was actually born a few years later, and in order to retain him, the local government/government specially built a high road between Akira's house in Toriyama and the airport.
However, this year's limelight belongs to Zhao Chen, because Zhao Chen once again broke a record, that is, the personal income tax record of cartoonists, and it is several times more than the second place, so that all the people who see this record are in a good position, and the gap is too big!
