Another big punch of boss Jia is the animation series of game king.
After the TV animation broadcast of the biography of the Three Kingdoms, the animation of the game king was broadcast directly.
Although Honda Ichiro proposed that "game king" be played directly in the name of the prequel of "biography of heroes of the Three Kingdoms", it was rejected by boss Jia. He did not want a strong relationship between the two.
On the other hand, because the animation of game king is in a hurry, and there are as many as 56 episodes in season 1, plus the emperor has another more important animation to do, so the animation of game king is inevitably a little rough.
However, even if it is rough, it is better than all the animations in Fusang. However, the beginning of "game king" did not directly detonate the whole audience like "biography of heroes of the Three Kingdoms", and the heat is not very high.
However, as readers gradually found the connection between the game king and the legend of the Three Kingdoms, the ratings of the game king began to rise gradually.
At the same time, because the plot quality of "game king" is better than that of "biography of heroes of the Three Kingdoms", gradually, the popularity and ratings of "game king" animation have also increased to more than 25%. Although it has not broken through the threshold of 30%, this is a great achievement.
Before the animation of "game king" was broadcast, in fact, the first volume of the cartoon of "game king" had been listed, and the TV animation had little impact on the cartoon, while the second volume of the cartoon was listed in February. At this time, we can see that the animation of "game king" has a strong sales driving effect on the cartoon of "game king".
In fact, this Sales driving effect can be seen in Volume 1 already on sale.
Before the animation was released, the sales volume of Volume 1 comics had exceeded one million, and another achievement that was extremely difficult for any comics was the one million sales achievement.
After the sale of the second volume of comics, it exceeded 500000 in a week and 1 million in a month, double the achievement of the first volume.
Now the combined sales of Volume 1 and Volume 2 comics have reached as much as 3 million, with an average sales of 1.5 million. Such sales can already rank among the top 20 in the average sales list of Fusang comics.
This basically means that "game king" has reached the status of Fusang first-line comics.
What does this status mean?
For example, the only comics that can be listed in the first-line comics and are still serialized at this time are beautiful girl warrior, seven dragon beads, Dora a dream, Saint warrior star arrow, JOJO's wonderful adventure and dunk master, which can be called first-line comics.
In another world, "game king" took four years to get on the front line, with an average sales volume of 1 million, but now, game king only takes four months.
On March 15, 1993, this was the day when the "game king" series cards were officially sold in Fusang.
This time, not only the 7-11 convenience store, but also the coarse dim sum store of quanfusang, also put on the shelves of the "game king" series cards at the same time.
The coarse dim sum association was completely dissolved last month. Now basically all coarse dim sum stores in the country rely on the new coarse dim sum Store Manager Association to purchase goods.
This association, which is completely composed of coarse dim sum store managers, places the income of member enterprises in the most important position, which is different from the previous coarse dim sum Association.
The coarse dim sum Store Manager Association naturally puts the income of the coarse dim sum store in the first place, so now the coarse dim sum store does not only sell coarse dim sum, but many things that have nothing to do with coarse dim sum can also be sold in the store.
This time, after learning that the "game king" cards will be on the market, the people of the coarse dim sum Store Manager Association took the initiative to come to the door, hoping that these cards can also be sold in the coarse dim sum store.
Previously, the coarse dim sum store managers were very angry because they simply ignored the elves, resulting in the interests of tens of billions of yen originally belonging to them being deprived by the convenience store.
However, because the elf flat noodles signed an exclusive sales contract with the 7-11 convenience store and could not be sold in any other store, although the new coarse dessert Store Manager Association was very enthusiastic, it was still rejected and could not sell the elf flat noodles.
Now that the card of game king is in the same line with the previous elves, and the relevant selling point is the same card, the coarse dim sum Store Manager Association can't sit still. It took the initiative to find Daqian and asked that the coarse dim sum store can also sell cards.
In this regard, Daqian is naturally very welcome. In fact, convenience stores are not Daqian's best choice. After all, children are more used to shopping in rough snack stores and selling them in convenience stores, which is just a helpless move.
Now that the coarse dim sum Store Manager Association has taken the initiative to come to the door, Daqian will not refuse. Therefore, this card sales of game king has become a joint sales plan of the coarse dim sum Association and 7-11 convenience stores.
After the official sales, boss Jia, Ichiro Honda and others were a little nervous, although they had done everything they could do, for example, constantly hinted at the relationship between the biography of the heroes of the Three Kingdoms and the game king through various media.
At the same time, advertisements for the sale of "game king" cards have been played on all platforms. It seems that we have to look at God's will.
If Jia Yapeng knew that a large number of citizens had lined up at the gate of 7-11 convenience stores in Tokyo, I think boss Jia's heart should be put into his stomach.
The pre-sale time of "game king" cards is 10 a.m., but it is 8 a.m. even though the convenience store is still open at this time, it has never seen the real face of "game king" cards. However, on the display platform at the gate of 7-11 convenience store, there is a dark red one with obscure magic array and magic tyrants painted on it, which is naturally mysterious, A small red cloth display stand with strange gas.
At the same time, the posters of "game king" are also hung inside the 7-11 convenience store. At the door of some key stores, there are even avatars of the protagonist of Wuteng game. A strong impetuous atmosphere floats in the whole convenience store.
Outside the convenience store, at least dozens of players looked at the cloth covered display stand and looked forward to the mysterious "game king" card inside.
At the same time, not only the 7-11 convenience stores, but also the rough snack shops in Tokyo also have mysterious counters covered by the red cloth of the magic array. Naturally, it is Jia Yapeng's request to create a mysterious magic feeling.
Sure enough, the passers-by looked curiously at this red cloth full of magic power, not to mention the readers who had long been waiting for the card sale of game king.
Many impatient people have been urging the clerk or the boss to sell quickly, but Daqian has signed an agreement with them. Everything must be sold after 10 a.m. otherwise, they will compensate tens of millions of yen. No one is willing to take such a risk to sell in advance.
Therefore, anxious customers can only continue to wait anxiously, and make their reason a little irrational at the same time.
Finally, the clock rang at 10 a.m. and the card "game king" was finally displayed in front of the world for the first time.
