Chapter 49: Strategy

"I disagree."

Just when everyone was lamenting Shen Xin's good luck, Yan Fei raised an objection.

"Sister Yan, what are you doing? What a great opportunity is this? Xiaoli muttered below.

Although the others didn't say it, the expressions on their faces also showed this meaning.

"It's a great opportunity to get the word out." The editor-in-chief reminded.

"I know, but readers buy magazines because they have a comic they like, and that comic doesn't have to be Y's, so instead of giving away a calendar for Y's, it's better to give a calendar with a mix of comic characters. As for "Y's", it may make more sense to send a poster with a calendar printed on it when New Year's Day is approaching. Yan Fei said.

The other editors nodded their heads and agreed with Yan Fei's proposal.

Since everyone has "eating", I also feel that Yan Fei's request to give a poster is acceptable.

"That's fine, but I think Y's readers should be looking forward to Iori's desk calendar. In fact, they should be looking forward to these 'benefits'? The deputy editor-in-chief touched the stubble on his chin and speculated.

The editor-in-chief also nodded regretfully, he also wanted to take a look at the desk calendar of "Y's", but since Yan Fei took the initiative to propose a desk calendar that "mixed various comic characters", he had no way to refuse.

"Ahem...... If you really want to launch it, it's not impossible. Yan Fei's words changed, and the topic turned to the desk calendar of "Y's".

The other editors were still thinking about how to compete for the page of the desk calendar, and Yan Fei's words woke them up.

What do you mean? Yan Fei is still thinking about the desk calendar?

The editor-in-chief didn't expect Yan Fei to withdraw the topic to the desk calendar again, and said confusedly: "Then what do you mean?" ”

"Editor-in-chief, "Y's" has now been updated to chapter 5, and if you look at the speed a little more, you can complete chapter 8 by December. Can we take advantage of Christmas and New Year's Day to launch a single book? Add the desk calendar as a New Year's gift to the first single book and give it randomly. ”

When the other people present heard Yan Fei's words, they were stunned and looked at Yan Fei in unison.

"It's worthy of Sister Yan, I just said, how could she give up such a good opportunity? But what does it mean to give away randomly? Xiaoli was puzzled.

The editor-in-chief also fell into deep thought.

With the results of "Y's", it is a matter of time before the single book is launched, and from the public opinion on the Internet, it can also be inferred that many netizens are very interested in the single book, in this case, it is better to take this opportunity to ...... on New Year's Day Before Christmas, a single book was launched, but ......

"Why give it randomly? Even if you give away a simple desk calendar for each copy, it won't cost much. The editor-in-chief was puzzled.

"Editor-in-chief, if you want to send it, you can send it." Yan Fei chuckled and explained, "You think, if there are single books of the same comics that have a desk calendar, and some don't, this matter will definitely be discussed on the Internet." At that time, "Y's" and "New World" will have popularity, and their fame will rise with it. ”

"Hmph, a good desk calendar is not small in size, and it is not the same thickness as a single book. Blind people know which one has a desk calendar, and it will definitely be in a single book that is not salable at that time. Li Jiming snorted coldly.

Yan Fei sighed and shook her head helplessly.

"You know scratch cards, right? Clip a scratch card in each single book, and the single book is a plastic seal, so only by buying a single book and hanging up the scratch card can you know if you have the opportunity to get a desk calendar. Everyone has a chance to win a prize, and even if some people can't draw a calendar, they can only blame themselves for their bad luck. ”

The eyes of the people present looked at Yan Fei, full of surprise.

It's easy to say, but everyone doesn't necessarily think of it.

"There is a downside to this. What if someone buys 10 or 8 copies and still doesn't get it? This can have a negative impact on Y's. The deputy editor-in-chief thought for a long time before putting forward his own opinion.

"It's also simple – if the response on the Internet is good, we can sell the calendar separately before these people get off." Yan Fei said the solution.

When the others heard this, they knew Yan Fei's thoughts.

If you just give each single book a desk calendar, you can only benefit the readers of "Y's", and if people start to discuss the desk calendar, and discuss "Y's" by the way, it is likely to attract readers who are not originally "Y's".

Yan Fei has only one purpose, which is to maximize the benefits of "Y's" and benefit "New World" by the way, as for other comics, she should never have considered it.

"If you really do this, the next issue of the magazine cover, poster, desk calendar, all the color drafts together, it will take about 15 sheets, can Mr. Shen draw so many color pages before December?" The editor-in-chief looked up at Yan Fei.

"Absolutely! I think this is definitely not a difficult thing for Mr. Shen. Yan Fei chuckled.

"In this case, you should try to urge it, since you want to do it, you must do your best, and we have to warm up a week in advance before the single book is released." The editor-in-chief reminded.

Yan Fei nodded.

"Y's is gaining momentum right now, but I still want to remind you that you must be careful and don't follow the old path of 'Chasing the Wind', in case you get carried away and progress is too fast, Y's may go downhill." The associate editor reminded.

"Teacher Shen has already shown me the name of the seventh episode, no problem. If there is an accident, I will definitely talk to him. Yan Fei said.

After sitting down, Yan Fei had a smile on her face, all the benefits that "Y's" could get so far have been obtained, and then, when the single book is released, there should be good sales. At the same time, the "Y's" desk calendar is also a periphery, no matter how much it is sold, it is necessary to give Shen Xin a sum of money, it is estimated that it will not be too much, but no matter how small the mosquito legs are, it is meat, and it is a sum of money to be earned.

"Sister Yan, the editor-in-chief seems to have something on his mind." Xiaoli put it to Yan Fei's ear and whispered.

Huh?

Yan Fei hurriedly looked at the editor-in-chief, and sure enough, the editor-in-chief kept tapping on the desktop, as if he was thinking about something.

The entire conference hall gradually fell silent, and there was no murmur except for the sound of the editor-in-chief banging on the table.

It lasted for a full minute before the editor-in-chief stopped, looked at the editors on both sides with his eyes, and finally fell on Li Jiming.

"Speaking of "Chasing the Wind", it's almost over, right?" The editor-in-chief asked.

"Yes. There are two more words, and it will be over. Li Jiming lowered his head and didn't dare to come out.

Xiaoli snorted coldly and whispered, "It's finally going to end." ”

"It's the end of the year soon, hurry up and finalize Mr. Gong's new contract, since the grades are not good, keep this year's contract money first. Take a look at the results of the new comics, and then you have to work hard, so that he can quickly come up with good works. The editor-in-chief urged.

Li Jiming lowered his head and did not make a sound.

"What? Difficult? The editor-in-chief asked.

Still didn't speak.

"What the hell is going on? Speak. The editor-in-chief was completely furious and slapped the table.

Li Jiming suddenly stood up from his seat, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gong is no longer ready to sign a contract with New World." ”

"What? You repeat. The editor-in-chief rubbed his ears, thinking he had misheard.

"Mr. Gong said it himself, he has already been in contact with "Dreamer", and he will serialize it on "Dreamer" next year." Li Jiming's face turned red, and the words of his own authors who left "New World" only proved his incompetence.

Xiao Linu pouted, holding back a smile, while Yan Fei rubbed her forehead.

This is the third person in the past six months that "New World" has been poached by "Dreamer".
