The selection of the second stage of the newcomer award is different from the first stage, and there are more netizens voting.

Many rookie authors feel that these recommendation votes are not very useful compared to the single book of the comics.

Truly veteran authors, especially those who are trying to compete for the best feature-length manga of the year, are well aware of the usefulness of these recommendation votes, and unless a new book is released, it is unlikely that the sales of a single book of each manga will make a qualitative leap. Therefore, the key to opening up the popularity value is in these recommendation tickets.

There are tens of millions of comic lovers in China, not to mention tens of millions of people, and there are six or seven million netizens registered on the comic network alone. Removing some zombie users, inactive accounts, and accounts, there are about 2 million netizens who regularly log on to the website. All this means that for each individual selection, there are almost more than 2 million votes per day, which can be voted for the comics participating in the comic festival.

Of course, even if it is an active user, there are a large number of people who feel troublesome and give up voting, so there are almost more than one million votes that can be cast every day for a single item, which is equivalent to nearly 200,000 copies of a single book.

Take the Newcomer Award as an example, although the first few manga were all broadcast in the fall, and sales can maintain a steady upward trend, but the difference in popularity between them is obvious.

"Crime and Punishment" just made instant noodles, but when readers saw a group of vicious villains, they turned around and appeared on the screen with a cute Q version of the image, which made readers feel surprised.

This contrast made the popularity of "Y's" skyrocket. Although the total sales of "Crime and Punishment" only increased by 200,000 copies throughout July, its popularity increased by 5 million, thanks to the daily votes of netizens.

"Y's" due to the use of fandom competitions, the improvement of the manga is not as direct as the anime, but it is better than the bubble noodles, and the entire July page sold 300,000 copies of the single book, and the popularity is also higher than that of "Crime", increasing the popularity of 8 million people, and sitting firmly in the fifth place on the rookie list.

The only exception is "Hunting the Abyss".

Because this comic has rarely been promoted before, many potential users have not been tapped. After the animation was broadcast, many animation parties found it very interesting, and people who had never been exposed to comics before also began to buy a single copy of "Hunting the Abyss".

Throughout July, "Hunting Abyss" sold 500,000 copies of a single book, and its popularity increased by 11 million, rushing to fourth place in one fell swoop, leaving only 2 million popularity points from the first place "Top of Basketball".

This has made the readers of "Hunting the Abyss" addicted.

From the first place to the sixth place, the popularity value is within four million.

It may seem like a lot, but it's actually only 4 million recommendation votes or 400,000 copies sold.

Almost all readers have already assumed that the next single volume will be released, and the entire ranking will change dramatically.

Shen Xin didn't pay attention to the comic network and "New World" anymore after the start of the fandom competition, and even when the sales of "New World" exceeded one million, he didn't bother to post a Weibo to congratulate him.

He was very busy and often forgot to eat, after Xi Muhan found out, he was quite resentful, and wanted to come to the studio several times, but was stopped by Yan Fei.

The first episode of "Ghost Potential" was published in the second star issue in August, and the questionnaire received 360 votes, ranking second among all serialized comics, and the first place is still Shen Xin's "Y's", 665 copies.

"Don't be discouraged, it's not easy for you, two or three months before you, the second place didn't have a comic, more than 350 tickets." Xiaoli looked at Zhou Yang, who had her head down and her body twitching, and whispered comfort.

Zhou Yang was silent for more than half a minute, and whispered to Xiaoli: "Sister Xiaoli, I want to call the master." ”

The only person who can make Zhou Yang call a master is Shen Xin.

Xiaoli sighed and bowed slightly.

Zhou Yang picked up his mobile phone, and under the gaze of Xiaoli and his assistant, he entered the bathroom.

He took a deep breath and dialed Shen Xin's phone, and the moment Shen Xin connected the phone, he couldn't hold back his emotions anymore.

"Master, I won the second place, 80 votes more than the third place, I heard Sister Xiaoli say, this result is relatively good in the past month...... Well, I will work hard, I won't be proud, and let Lu Ning and Brother Gao cheer up, I will cheer them up......"

“……”

Xiaoli was speechless, and the assistant looked at each other.

Today's Zhou Yang is definitely not normal!

The second-place finish in "Ghost Potential" eased the tension in the studio.

After a brief conversation, the three of them went about their duties again and began to draw the original manuscript.

After three weeks of judging, the champion of the "Y's" fandom has settled, and the group of players who won the championship are Echo and Seven Yuzu.

Originally, the two girls wanted to visit Shen Xin immediately, and then learned that their works had to have another duel with Shen Xin's assistant, in order to ensure the fairness of the game, the two could only visit Shen Xin's studio after this duel.

200,000 cash was sent to the hands of the two girls, but the prize pool was not too much, from the beginning of the same competition to the selection of the champion, the single book sold 600,000 copies, and the amount of the prize pool was only 120,000 yuan, and their prize money was finally fixed at 260,000.

Although it didn't meet expectations, considering that "Y's" did not release new comics during this period, the sales of 600,000 copies were already very good, not to mention, they still have a chance to compete for the final 50,000 yuan reward.

In the last week of the end of August, "Crime and Punishment" was the first to release the fourth volume of a single book, and the ranking of the newcomer list changed again, and "Crime and Punishment" became the second place on the newcomer list with 500,000 copies sold in the first week.

Readers of "Y's" have already been tickled by the latest serialization of "Y's" and eight fanficies, and they are looking forward to the fifth volume that will be released on September 7, and on September 1, "Comic Future" suddenly announced that "Hunting the Abyss" will release the fourth volume on September 8.

For a while, Manjia.com also fell into a heated discussion, speculating about the intentions of "Hunting the Abyss", but then Ye Hexu sent a Weibo to explain the reason.

Originally, the release of the fourth volume was scheduled for September 17, but the magazine moved it forward by 10 days because it was too late on the 17th. It's definitely not what everyone thinks. ”

No matter how everyone guesses, Ye Hexu gave an explanation, although it seems to be an excuse, but these are Ye Hexu's sincere words.

At first, the magazine originally wanted to advance to the 6th, so that "Hunting Abyss" was released before "Y's", but Ye Hexu felt that it was not suitable and wanted to push it to the 10th, and finally the two sides compromised and lined up on the 8th.

Regarding being too close to "Y's", Ye Hexu has no choice, in terms of the operation of comics, the magazine has the final say, even if he has a temper, it is impossible to change the opinion of the magazine.
