Chapter 65: The Troubles of Happiness
Think so.
Fang Haocheng slowly turned the first page and began to read.
Just after reading the beginning, his face was slightly complicated.
Death Note.
Literally.
The setting of the other party is exaggerated, this is a notebook that can make people die by writing their names, and it fell from the Grim Reaper Realm.
The tandem between the divine realm and the human race.
And endowed with supernatural powers.
I have to say that the other party is really imaginative.
Just seeing this, Fang Haocheng couldn't guess the intention of the Dream Weaver.
It can be said that it is very dangerous for such a thing to be obtained by an ordinary high school student.
And according to the notebook setting, the next content is definitely on the dark side, because it will be filled with a lot of death plots.
Want to get answers.
He could only keep watching.
However, there was something about the development of the story that made him laugh and cry.
It stands to reason that ordinary people will do when they get such a notebook?
At the worst of all, we have to get rid of the guys who don't like it on weekdays, right?
And it is unaware of the gods.
Is there a more subtle way to kill people than this?
Absolutely not.
Just write a few words and you're good to go.
But what is this protagonist Night God Moon doing?
This guy has a great sense of justice, plans to eliminate violence, punish criminals, and even threatens to create a new world without criminals.
Fang Haocheng almost laughed when he saw this.
Is there any mistake?
This thing for you to kill criminals?
Could it be that the definition of this manga is the direction of the stream of science fiction heroes?
He felt that the Dream Weaver's operation was a bit stretched.
The character of the protagonist is simply blind to this setting.
But soon.
The plot began to change next.
After too many deaths of criminals, the investigation team finally notices that something is wrong and brings in a mysterious detective named L.
The name is a bit special.
But Fang Haocheng disagreed.
It doesn't matter what the detective is or the investigation team, in fact, it's all nonsense when you come, and it's completely impossible to find a notebook of paranormal phenomena.
This is beyond the guesses of normal people.
So he thinks that the other party should have some supporting roles to play blank scenes.
After all, although the night god moon is under the slogan of eradicating evil, it is not right after all because of the deprivation statement.
In legal terms.
He is in the position of a villain.
In other words, the justice that the protagonist thinks is not the justice that the state thinks.
So it's logical that there is such a group of people trying to investigate him.
But the next scene.
Fang Haocheng looked at it with a numb scalp.
After the detective named L appeared, he directly used the local TV station to provoke and quickly locked the area where the night god moon was located.
It's too strong.
The idea is just too strong.
Fang Haocheng, who was still extremely confident just now, was stunned.
Although there is a certain amount of coincidence in the plot, even if you don't find it this time, there will still be a chance next time.
The theory makes sense.
This detective named L is not just a general.
And the drawing protagonist in the comics, Night God Moon, has a similar expression to him at the moment, but the other party is proud enough to refuse to admit defeat.
Therefore, the two actually want to start a cat-and-mouse game.
The comics, which were obviously sinful in the early stage, suddenly turned into detective reasoning, and this huge reversal gave him goosebumps.
Reasoning suspense.
The theme of this comic turned out to be mystery suspense.
Fang Haocheng's face was shocked...
At this time.
There are still many people with the same expression as him at this moment.
Whether it's an old fan of Dream Weaver or a new comic fan who joins later.
The shock that Death Note brought to them was absolutely unprecedented.
Fang Haocheng only saw the beginning of a game, while some fans had already seen the climax.
The confrontation between Night God Moon and L, it was really you coming and going, and the situation was quite tense.
But every subtle manifestation can be analyzed in L's eyes.
And the protagonist's IQ is not lagging behind, although his ideals are a little incredible, but this kind of arrogance and strength looks at the blood of people.
If someone had told them a few days earlier that the subject matter of this comic was reasoning, I believe many people would have scoffed at it and even disdained it.
But now, this high-energy and compact plot is simply inseparable.
.....
"My God, L is too strong, this kind of person has to be under great pressure to talk to him."
"The night god moon is not strong? In the face of so many investigations, he survived alone, and he continued to kill. ”
"I don't think there's any need for Ye Shenyue to do this, it's completely a lose-lose situation, it's better to avoid this investigation honestly."
"What the hell are you talking about upstairs? The character of the protagonist is not admitting defeat, how can the strong speak of failure, who are you looking down on? ”
"Ryuk is such a bastard of death that he can play the world with a notebook like this."
.....
In the exclamations of the fans.
More and more people are starting to buy Death Note.
What?
Haven't you seen this manga?
You're a bit of a laggard.
How about comparing it to Gundam?
Equal.
Just buy a copy and take a look.
The long queues in front of the major comic stores have never been broken, and it has become a beautiful landscape.
Whether it is on Weibo or in the circle of comics, the discussion about this work has reached a new height.
When the first week's sales were told, everyone couldn't believe it.
120,000 copies!
120,000 copies!
It directly broke the previous record of 80,000 copies.
If it weren't for the limited channels of Baihe's editorial department, it would be more than that.
This means that the real sales should be more than 120,000 copies.
At this time.
The major comic companies can't wait and see.
Death Note is on fire.
Indeed, it is on fire.
In fact, at the beginning of the sale, they vaguely felt that something was wrong.
It stands to reason that it should be difficult for fans to accept such a thing as changing the theme, but it's weird that sales have been high.
They began to only act as each other's fans in the early stage.
But as time went on, this conjecture was finally shattered.
The Dreamweaver's creativity is still at a point they can't imagine.
You know, this work is a very inconspicuous reasoning theme, and it hasn't been very popular for 800 years.
But in such a situation, comic fans are still flocking to it.
It doesn't make sense.
Two hot-selling manga works in a row.
But they can't dig up such authors.
Even if it is to talk about the high-standard treatment of the industry.
But the assistant didn't say a few words before hanging up for them.
What else can I do about this?
They even wondered if there was some kind of relationship between the Dream Weaver and the Baihe editorial department.
Otherwise, why do you want to stay in the editorial department of the other party.
But these companies are not without a solution.
It's still the same.
Let the author under him take a look at it first, and then see if he can follow the trend like Gundam.
After all, that's what they did in the last comics.,The effect was not bad during the period.,It's also considered to be making money.。
It's just that the answer I got this time is difficult for major companies to accept.
The authors at the bottom all refused.
Although the words are very tactful, it means that they cannot be imitated.
Let's not talk about the setting.
It's this kind of extreme pull confrontation plot, and you can't figure it out without a little brain.
On the surface, it's a detective theme, but this comic is not just about collecting clues and solving cases.
Under the fantasy color, the promotion of each plot is filled with a lot of logical thinking.
It's okay for you to have them mimic the brain.
It's a big deal, let's be like some kind of 'bleeding pen', 'cannibal computer', 'crippled eraser' or something...
In the shameless point.
Is the whole 'Resurrection Notes' okay?
But that's not the case at all.
The brain hole can be copied, and the theme can be assisted, but what about the plot?
To put it bluntly, the Death Note can become popular, and people are not simply because of auxiliary things such as the Grim Reaper and the notebook.
The fundamental reason is still the offense and defense of the protagonist and supporting characters.
It's not as easy to imitate as Gundam.
It's too much brains.
No one wants to do that.
Just when the major comic companies had a headache for this, many large dealers also found the editorial department of Baihe.
According to the past, Tang Hongzhou may have to jump excitedly.
But now, it is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
.....
"Haha, Editor-in-Chief Tang, don't come to harm's harm, isn't this a little bothering you, about the comic book Death Note..."
"Hello Editor-in-Chief Tang, I am a Shenghe comic book store here, and I would like to talk to you about the sales of 'Death Note'."
"Long time no see, Old Don, how are you doing..."
"Editor-in-Chief Tang, my side is..."
"Hello, I am..."
.....
The phone calls came one after another, Tang Hongzhou just listened quietly, and then responded with a smile, most of which were perfunctory.
But I am also making a decision in my heart about which one to choose as a partner, after all, there is still a lot of inventory waiting to be sent out at the factory.
Naturally, the sooner the better, because the popularity of the comics will subside.
Tang Hongzhou is not afraid of pressing in his hands, but the cycle is too long, and the payment will be slow, and he is afraid that the dream weaver will not be able to wait when the time comes.
And he originally wanted to expand the sales channels of the editorial department.
Now is an opportunity, so this step is imperative.
Among them, Shenghe comics are good, it is a well-known chain store in China, the scale is not small, I heard that only comics by well-known authors are sold.
This can also be done, Dingyang Comic Society, there are not many stores, but each store is big enough, and it is also relatively famous in the circle.
There is also this, the god manfang, said to be the decoration style of mangai, which is the most popular among young people.
Of course, the other dealers are also good in size.
After all, at this time, there must be two brushes that dare to come over.
Or do you want to share tens of thousands of copies evenly among the family?
So that no one will be offended.
Or just choose an in-depth cooperation?
Just throw the remaining 200,000 copies over?
Tang Hongzhou felt the trouble of happiness for the first time.
