Chapter 121: First-day sales
"Crime" and "Y's" were released at the same time, which attracted a lot of people's attention.
Readers on both sides are waiting for the first day of sales of the two single books.
At nine o'clock the next morning, Yan Fei called Shen Xin.
"Teacher Shen, congratulations."
After Yan Fei answered the phone with Shen Xin, she couldn't wait to shout.
"The sales of a single book have come out?" Shen Xin hurriedly stood up.
Well, the third volume sold 72,000 copies, making it the highest-selling single book in New World's history on its first day. Not only that, but the total sales of "Y's" single book also exceeded 700,000 copies. The sales department decided to print another 200,000 copies of the third volume, and there would be different numbers of reprints for the first and second volumes. Teacher Shen, congratulations! ”
Although Yan Fei deliberately controlled her emotions, this sudden happiness caught her off guard.
72,000 copies on the first day, it is difficult for a newcomer who has just entered the industry for half a year to do, and "New World" has never appeared in a comic of this size. What's even more surprising is that the comics that have achieved this result are love themes, not hot-blooded royal comics.
"Huh? 72,000 copies ......" Shen Xin muttered to himself, this sales volume was twice as high as the first day of the second volume.
Lu Ning, Gao Hang and Zhou Yang looked at Shen Xin with expectant eyes.
Shen Xin suppressed the excitement in his heart and tried his best to remain calm, but a smile was on his face, "Yesterday's sales of a single book were 72,000 copies. ”
"72,000 copies?" Gao Hang's mouth opened slightly, but in the next moment, he let out an angry roar, "It's 72,000 copies!" It's so helpful! ”
Gao Hang's hands slammed on the table, he also worked as an assistant in Yunhai for a while, and he knew very well what 72,000 copies meant. If the follow-up plot of "Y's" does not collapse, then it is likely to leave its own footprints in the history of comics in the sea of clouds.
He is proud to be an assistant involved in the creation of Y's.
Lu Ning is relatively calm, but it is only relative. She looked down at the original manuscript on the writing table, but her heart was like a little white rabbit living in it, jumping around.
There is such a high sales volume...... Does that mean that Shen Xin can look forward to this year's "Newcomer Award"?
She glanced back at Shen Xin, but saw that after he hung up Yan Fei's phone, he sat back in his chair with a thick smile on his face.
Regardless of the results of "Crime and Punishment", the sales volume of "Y's" on the first day of release alleviated Shen Xin's anxiety by half, and it should not be difficult to break 200,000 copies in the first week.
Next, it's up to "Y's" to break into the top 10 of the new book list.
At 9:30 a.m., New World was the first to publish Y's data on Weibo, followed by Comic Future, which sold 68,000 copies on its first day.
For the first time, "Y's" surpassed "Punishment" in single-day sales.
After the data was announced, the comic network forum was completely boiling.
If it hadn't collapsed, Y's would have surpassed 350,000 copies in its first week, an incredible result for a second-tier magazine.
"Y's sold more on the first day of release than Crime? Really? ”
"Of course it's possible, although "Crime" has a lot of readers, "Comic Future" is only promoted in magazines and bookstores in Hongchuan, but "Y's" is different, the advertisement from the sea of clouds to Hongchuan, but it is only 4,000 copies more than "Crime", and the data is not very good."
"Upstairs, don't forget that Teacher Su Han and Teacher Jumping signed a total of 8,000 single books yesterday, which is 6,000 more than the signed version of "Y's".
"Then again, the third volume of Y's is also of high quality, and there are more than a dozen color pages. Although the price has increased by two yuan, it is really cost-effective considering that it comes with a radio drama. ”
"That's right, a total of 10 words, I listened to them all in one breath yesterday, and I can only say that it is enjoyable. Each voice actor performed well, and when you close your eyes and think back to the scene in the manga, it's like you're there. Of course, it would be better if it could be anime. ”
"However, the fly in the ointment is that there are two commercials in the middle, one for fast food and one for headphones, and at the beginning of each episode, "New World" is mentioned, which feels like promoting "New World".
"Since it's free, don't ask for too much. Moreover, the advertisement in the middle is the dubbing of Shu Jiazhi and them, and there is no sense of disobedience at all. ”
"If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known it was an advertisement."
"Advertising, put it aside. I thought it would be the stupidest decision for Y's to choose to release on the same day as Punishment. Now it seems that it is not "Punishment" that is stupid, but me, haha. However, the series of operations in "Y's" really deserve such good results. ”
"Isn't it because Y's is of excellent quality? Many manga have been published in radio dramas, and some have also produced animations, but haven't they been able to drive manga sales? ”
"But don't be too optimistic, whether Y's's results yesterday were short-lived, or whether it can really soar to the sky, it will take time to test, let's wait and then make an evaluation."
"Y's" was a big hit for the first time, which surprised "Y's" book lovers, and at the same time, they were happy that their favorite manga was recognized by others.
Fans of "Guilt" are in a different mood.
The sales of 68,000 copies in a single day are more than 10,000 copies more than the first volume of "Crime and Punishment", which should be a very good result. But when they learned that another manga released on the same day had higher sales, they felt a little lost in their hearts.
It's like two classmates, a student who excels in his studies gets a score of 98 in an exam, which is quite good, but a student who usually studies averagely gets 100 points, and there is inevitably some imbalance in his heart.
"Why did 'Y's' sell more than 'Punishment'? A month ago...... Who knew there was this comic before the radio drama came out? And it's also a manga published in a second-rate magazine. I think everyone is burned out, and now Mr. Su and Mr. Hopping must be worried about the results of this book. Now is the time when the two teachers need us, if you think the quality of this comic is okay, you must support the two teachers, even if it is only one copy. ”
A senior sailor in the "Comic Future" section deliberately made a post to arouse the emotions of sailors.
"Crime and Punishment" is a brain-burning comic, Mr. Su is estimated to be thinking about new stories every day, and Mr. Jumping is also concentrating on painting, so he has no time to take care of anything else. This time, the responsibility was mainly due to the inaction of the magazine, and it was only after two days of hasty publicity that "Y's" had an opportunity to take advantage of. ”
"That's right, we'll leave a message on Comic Future's Weibo and ask the magazine to figure out a way. You can't let a second-rate magazine ride on your head. ”
"I said, don't be too anxious. "Y's" may only be strong. It lasted two days, and I believe that in a week, the sales of "Punishment" will be even higher. ”
"That's for sure. The appeal of "Crime" to readers is not comparable to that of a romance comic. ”
"That's right."
In the entanglement of fans on both sides, the sales of the two comics are quietly changing.
