Despite the appearance of "synthetic beasts", the results of "Steel Forged" did not decline, which Shen Xin did not expect.

Looking back, Wang Wenhong also said the possible reasons, although some people think that "synthetic beast" is too cruel, but the meaning expressed through "synthetic beast" is recognized by many people.

Shen Xin, as a creator, of course, cannot accept such an explanation.

Zuo Wei's disappearance also increased the sense of heaviness of "Chess Soul", but the results of "Chess Soul" suffered a cliff-like decline.

Therefore, it cannot be considered in terms of whether or not to increase the connotation.

However, comparing "Steel Refining 03" and "Steel Refining FA", it is not difficult for Shen Xin to come up with a reason - the importance of the roles is different.

From Nina's appearance to her death as a synthetic beast, she only appeared in just over forty pages, and there were only a handful of storyboards related to her.

In the reader's impression, Nina is just a passing supporting character, although when she first sees Nina become a synth, the reader's heart is shocked and angry, and in a short time, it cannot be contained.

However, after discussion, they also accepted what happened to Nina. At the same time, the sudden appearance of the scarred face at the end of the chapter also aroused their curiosity.

Since he killed Tucker and killed Nina, who became a synth, out of kindness, he should be a good person, right? Belch...... At least a person who is not bad.

It is said that Shang Haozhi saw that this ranking was very high, and he knew that this was the case, so he would not change the first day of the first volume.

After Shen Xin learned the news, he couldn't laugh or cry.

It can only be said that people are not as good as heaven.

Recently, Wang Wenhong has also been very busy, and I heard him say that Mr. Shang has begun to pay attention to the webtoon, so all the editors who have a little free time have been assigned to work, even Yan Fei is no exception.

Webtoon?

When Shen Xin heard this word, he was also a little uneasy in his heart.

After the advent of the Internet, especially mobile comic apps, the impact on the magazine industry is almost fatal. Even a giant like "Shonen Jump" has dropped from a high of 6.53 million copies to around 2 million copies. Of course, there may be a lack of high-quality comics, but the impact of comic apps is inevitable.

Although it may seem that the sales of "Comic Future" and "Shonen Jump" are not much different, there is also a demographic factor to consider.

The population of China in this world is several times larger than that of the 11 regions of the earth, so the difficulty of "Shonen Jump" to get 6 million copies is much higher than that of "Comic Future".

Even "Shonen Jump" can't stop the magazine's sales from declining, so what will "Comic Future" do about it?

Also, if ...... No, in fact, with the development of technology, he will inevitably be involved in the Internet age.

How will he face it then?

Shen Xin stretched his waist, leaned on the back of the chair, subconsciously looked at the display screen, and after a while, he sneered.

Really, what kind of impact the Internet can have on comic magazines, he has already seen it, what are he still afraid of?

Thinking of this, Shen Xin's attention returned to the display screen again, picked up the pen, and continued to draw comics.

The 3rd place in the 8th episode of "Steel Forged" is a certain accident in Shen Xin's opinion, if it were not for the readers who understand "Steel Forged" to participate in the discussion, I am afraid that the results would be unknown.

However, this also proves that more and more people have noticed the charm of this comic.

The 8th episode, which worries Shen Xin the most, has achieved good results, and the 9th and 10th episodes don't have to worry anymore.

In Episode 9, a man named Enwei transforms into the Sun Sect, the leader of the sect, and continues to bewitch the citizens. It's kind of a foreshadowing.

When drawing this character, Shen Xin felt very emotional, the voice actor Gao Shannan who dubbed Enwei was the voice actor of Conan, so when he thought of this character, his mind was full of Conan.

In episode 10, Fenska, the scar man who killed Tucker, finds Edward and Al, who are sitting in the rain, and hunts them down.

Wherever Scar's palm touched, it was destroyed.

Edward and Al fought back, and in just one turn, Al was physically destroyed by Scar. In order to protect his brother, Edward had to fight Scar.

However, Edward, who was very short, was far inferior to Scar in terms of physical skills, and in the blink of an eye, he was caught by Scar in his right arm.

The first destruction was fruitless, and it wasn't until Edward showed off his mechanical arm that Scar saw an opportunity to destroy Edward's right arm.

The last page of the comic is a full page of Edward, who has been impacted, with his body flowing backwards, and the right arm of the machine being shattered, and the parts scattered in all directions.

This page is full of suspense, but the story ends there.

The name of "Broken Dog" sounded on the forum again, and readers expressed their "anger" with their own "actions" - the sales of "Steel Forge" exceeded 100,000 copies on the day of its release. As a result, the sales of "Hunting the Abyss" declined.

According to Jian Xiaomei's complaint, "Hunting Abyss" sold at least 100,000 copies less.

Whether this statement is true or not, no one can confirm it.

On the third day of sales, the sales department notified the printing house again to print 300,000 copies.

Subsequently, the sales of the first volume of "Steel Forged" were still hot, exceeding 500,000 copies in the first week.

Seeing the report sent by the sales department, Shang Haozhi slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Steel Refining" has 530,000 copies in a single week, and "Hunting Abyss" has only sold 690,000 copies due to the influence of "Steel Refining", so it seems that even if it does not affect 100,000 copies, it is about the same.

After Shen Xin learned the news, he could only apologize to Ye Hexu.

But when the single book will be released, it is not up to him to have the final say.

As for the 11th district, although the sales volume is only half of that of Huaxia, considering that Shen Xin is not the author of "Young Leap", the publicity in the 11th district is not as strong as that of Huaxia, and it is not easy to have more than 200,000 copies.

Murakami is also very satisfied with the sales of "Steel", now only the first volume, more than 200,000 copies have been sold, and with the development of the plot, the animation is released, and it is estimated that it will be another big hit.

Shen Xin invited everyone to dinner, Wang Wenhong didn't come over again because of the webtoon, and the four of them had a simple meal.

After the meal, the three assistants returned to their residences, and Shen Xin also returned to the studio alone.

Sitting in front of the cold computer, looking at the dark first floor, Shen Xin also felt a kind of dazedness.

Subconsciously logged in to the penguin number, I don't know when, I have already clicked on Xi Muhan's number, I just wanted to type, but I didn't know what to say.

At this moment, the mobile phone on the desktop suddenly turned on.

Shen Xin subconsciously looked down and saw that it was a text message from Xi Muhan.

Open the text message, and a line of text appears in his field of vision.

"Congratulations, the first volume of "Steel" is a big hit."

After the sales came out in a single week, the magazine was afraid that others would not know, so it published news and advertisements on forums such as Manjia.com as soon as possible, as long as you pay attention, it is not difficult to know.

Seeing this line of words, Shen Xin's heart warmed.

After the words "thank you" were replied to, Shen Xin also shook his spirits, picked up the pen, and continued to draw the original manuscript.
