The editors' attention immediately shifted to Shang Haozhi.

Shang Haozhi walked straight to the desk, turned around, and patted his hand twice, "Say two things, the first is that six single books will be released this month." Among them, there are three key recommendations, first, on May 10, the second volume of "Ding Shi" was released as a single book, with a first edition of 220,000 copies, and "12 Years Old Again" was released on the 18th, with a first edition of 120,000 copies, and there was a signed book ...... in Wing Hang Bookstore"

Yan Fei's eyes lit up when she heard this.

She didn't expect that "12 Years Old Again" would have the opportunity to sell a single book so soon, and it was also a signed book.

Yongheng Bookstore is also located in Nanjiatan, which is considered a medium-level bookstore, not in the same grade as Jiman Bookstore, but for Zuo Yuan, this is definitely a good opportunity to promote himself.

Even further down, this may be the magazine's expectation for "12 Years Old Again".

“…… On May 22, the 18th volume of "Steel Forged" was released, and the current first edition is 2.3 million copies. ”

After Shang Haozhi finished speaking, he only heard the sound of inhaling from the office.

2.3 million copies, not 230 copies...... This first edition absolutely crushed all the comics in China.

However, considering the popularity of "Steel" in China, it is almost this sales, especially in the recent episodes, the plot has risen, and the 18th volume may even exceed 2 million copies.

"In addition, there is one more thing...... Shang Haozhi paused for a moment and looked at Xu Jie, "The first week sales of the latest single book of "The King of Rock and Roll" were only 141,000 copies...... Although the sales are also good, they are still too shabby compared to the number of 600,000 copies in the first edition. ”

"What?" Xu Jie immediately stood up and looked at Shang Haozhi in astonishment, "Editor-in-chief, it's 400,000 copies, right?" 140,000 copies...... That's less than the weekly sales of the first volume of "King of Rock and Roll" when it was released! ”

Anyway, "King of Rock and Roll" is also the pillar of "Comic Future", and the latest single book has only sold 140,000 copies.

"I had the same opinion as you at first, but the salesperson in the sales department sent me photos of the warehouse and lists of major bookstores, and I couldn't help it."

"But...... Wouldn't it have sold only 140,000 copies!? Xu Jie's brain ached.

"Will it be attacked by the last show and cause sales to drop?" Wang Wenhong said curiously.

"How is that possible? That was in October and November last year, and now it's almost May, and half a year has passed...... Moreover, more than 300,000 copies were bought in the first week of the previous volume, and it was because of the impact of the column group's criticism that the sales fell, why did it suddenly lose so much this time? ”

"I don't know. In fact, not only "King of Rock and Roll" is declining, but the sales of comics released during the same period are also sluggish...... Don't pestle, hurry up and find the reason. Shang Haozhi looked around, and his eyes finally fell on Wang Wenhong's body again, "Xiao Wang, come over for a moment." ”

"Huh?" Wang Wenhong was stunned, it seemed that there was nothing to do with him, and the results of "Steel Forge" were indescribably stable.

Shang Haozhi took the document and went directly into the conference room isolated by the glass wall, Wang Wenhong took a deep breath, and felt a little apprehensive in his heart.

When passing by Yan Fei's table, Yan Fei asked in a low voice, "Did you commit something?" ”

"Hey, what can I do?" Wang Wenhong rolled his eyes and muttered.

Pushing the door into the room, Shang Haozhi had already sat down.

"Pick up a random seat and ...... Uh, sit next to me, right? Shang Haozhi thought about it and changed his words again.

Wang Wenhong became more and more suspicious, but he still listened to Shang Haozhi's words, pulled a chair, and sat next to Shang Haozhi.

"Xiao Wang, how many years have you been in Comic Future?"

"Seven years, almost eight years." Wang Wenhong explained.

"It's been eight years...... To be honest, it's not a short time, right? Shang Haozhi asked.

"Well, thanks to the cultivation of the leaders and the guidance of the seniors, I can grow so much......"

"Don't say these useless P words, there is one thing to say, your contract is about to expire, in November this year." Shang Haozhi handed the document in his hand to Wang Wenhong, "The treatment must have improved, but you also know that we are in this industry, and we still rely more on commissions, you have "Steel Refining" in your hands, and the commission of our magazine, no one should be higher than you, right?" ”

"Uh...... You say this, I haven't thought about it yet. Wang Wenhong laughed dryly.

To say that he didn't think about it, it must be a lie, but after eight years in a position, to be honest, he is also a little tired.

If it weren't for Shen Xin, he probably wouldn't have stayed in "Comic Future" anymore.

"You'd better think about it, in China, there is no magazine more suitable for you except Comic Future. Although Duoman is gaining momentum, in the final analysis, they do not have a great demand for editors, and the quality of editing is not high. As you know, the current results of the "CF" app are not very good, with only a few hundred thousand installed bases, and the senior management is not too satisfied with this, and it may have to be integrated in the future. So, there are still many opportunities for "Comic Future". Shang Haozhi said meaningfully.

"I see......" Wang Wenhong nodded.

No matter where you go, when the other party can't do it, you will always make some seemingly beautiful visions, as for what these visions look like, whether they can really be eaten, the person who throws the cake doesn't care at all.

Wang Wenhong glanced at the contract in his hand, roughly turned a few pages, and it was almost the same as the previous one.

"Editor-in-chief ......" Wang Wenhong looked up at Shang Haozhi.

"Huh?"

"I'm not sure yet, will I wait two months? Now that "Steel Forge" is rushing for results, my energy is on "Steel Forged", so I can't make up my mind for a while. ”

"Also, the recent results of "Steel" have been very popular." Shang Haozhi nodded.

Wang Wenhong's expression slowed down for a moment.

"Now that the momentum of "Steel Forge" is just right, there is no room for the slightest mistake...... Did Mr. Shen reveal when "Steel Forged" will end? ”

"Probably at the end of next year or the beginning of the year after...... The end of the year is more likely. Wang Wenhong explained.

"So fast!?" Shang Haozhi looked surprised, "At the end of next year...... It's only about 200 words. ”

"That's right, you also know Mr. Shen...... His creative habit is that as soon as the story is finished, the comic will be finished. ”

"Yes." Shang Haozhi rubbed his forehead and looked depressed, "It's a pity that "Steel Refining" is ......"

If there is no blockbuster before the end of "Steel", the sales of "Comic Future" may continue to decline...... Moreover, this decline is likely to be a crash.

Shang Haozhi rubbed his chin and thought for a long time, "What do you think about the plummeting sales of "King of Rock and Roll"? ”

"Huh?" Wang Wenhong didn't expect Shang Haozhi to ask him about "The King of Rock and Roll".

"I don't know, but since the sales of other comics have also declined, it means that it is not a comic of "King of Rock and Roll", not to mention that the latest issue of "King of Rock and Roll" is not a single book, and there is nothing poisonous."

"That's what I thought, too." Shang Haozhi said coldly, "So, there is a problem. ”
