After the sales of the first volume of the book of "strange people of mountains and seas" in China, Takahashi Wulang learned about it through channels at the first time, and learned a very interesting information.
Before 0:00 on the first day, Penguin animation network and Changjiang Publishing House decided to print, and the number of additional prints was also set at 200000, which is a larger number than the first print. It can be seen that these two parties are confident in the follow-up sales of shanhaiqiren, but also exposed that they really underestimated the sales capacity of shanhaiqiren before.
You know, this 180000 first print doesn't mean that you can sell it all in one day, but that you are ready to buy it for a long time.
Confirm to print, and several major e-commerce platforms have opened pre orders.
Takahashi Wulang found that the statistical figures he saw had exceeded 50000 by the time he got up the next morning to open the editor in chief's office.
In other words, in addition to the sales volume of more than 130000 on the first day, the sales volume of the next day can still be maintained at about 100000, which is a very good data.
Take some phenomenal comics of neon for example. They don't sell millions in a day. It takes a long time to accumulate.
There may be a terrible number on the first day of sales, but it will decrease significantly the next day, and then rely on the accumulation of day and night to reach one million sales.
But Meng fan... The sales performance of the next day was much stronger than that of most comics.
This made Takahashi Wulang a little surprised. He thought that Meng fan's current reputation in China should be the first day of sales explosion, and then the next day the heat quickly subsided. He didn't expect it to be like this.
Curious, takero Takahashi did not immediately go to the editor in chief, but collected this reason through various channels.
The information collected (accurate and unknown) made Takahashi Wulang a little incomprehensible.
First of all, although the Chinese cartoon market has gradually expanded, the habit of buying a separate edition is still very low. Most people can see it online and don't buy physical books. They prefer to reward the amount far exceeding the price of the separate edition on the website, and they are not unwilling to buy it.
Secondly, although the Chinese cartoon market is already large, it is still small compared with the population base of China. In particular, the proportion of people who read comics is not high. Do not take film and television dramas, novels, etc. as for animation itself, the number of people who read animation is far more than the number of people who read comics. Many people have seen animation such as pirate fire shadow, but the proportion of people who read comics is very low.
In other words, Meng fan's popularity today is one of the online support, but the proportion of consumption power really converted into comics is not high. You can go to the website at most, so the online click data in all aspects is very terrible, but the physical sales volume is relatively poor. Furthermore, if the "strange man of mountains and seas" has been animated, the strength of support will not be the same.
Third, because of this popularity, many people go to the website to search, and a small number of these people have the idea of buying a collection, so the subsequent sales have come up again.
And "a small part of these people" can constitute such follow-up sales, which also surprised takero Takahashi.
In a word, although such sales can still be achieved on the premise of the purchasing power of comics in the Chinese market, and the online response is great, this is also a reason for Takahashi Wulang to knock on the door of the editor in chief office again to persuade him.
Put aside popularity, just say response, there is no reason not to move the magazine!
"Takahashi sang, you don't have to say."
The editor in chief asked takero Takahashi, who entered the office, to sit down and said with a smile, "there is no problem with your proposal. Shanhaiqiren is indeed qualified to move to weekly boy M. to be honest, this is actually an opportunity for weekly boy m, whose sales are declining."
I called and several editors came in soon.
The editor in chief said the decision, and then said, "next, let's discuss which two comics to stop publishing, or move to the supplement."
After discussion, it was finally decided that it would be more than four o'clock when Takahashi Wulang called Meng fan to tell him the news. Meng fan was on the bullet train home at the moment.
"Move to weekly boy m?"
Meng fan was naturally happy when he heard it. From the supplement to the three teenagers, this is undoubtedly a great good thing for shanhaiqi Ren.
Although the circulation of weekly boy m is barely maintained at about 700000, it is still the second highest circulation weekly of neon. Compared with the supplement, this is something that every cartoonist is happy about, and Meng fan is no exception. More remuneration is next, and the most important thing is to let more fans see Huaxia comics!
Speaking of remuneration, although Meng fan didn't accept any advertising endorsements, he was still making money during this period, and made a lot of money.
The biggest natural is Penguin animation network. The subscription of "spirit on the ground" is divided into two parts. Although "campus love refers to man" is finished, there are still many subscriptions. Although "mountain sea strange man" is still free at present, it is unbearable to reward odd many, including 500000 of the onemillion points you reward yourself.
In addition, the live broadcast of 8 stations has not been broadcast many times, but every time the gifts are overwhelming, and there are also a lot of dividends.
In addition, part of the royalties on the sales of previous comic books have also arrived, and the money for dubbing has also been paid.
——There is also a bonus for winning the championship three times, but the bonus is not much, let alone the wrestling Grand Prix. The bonus of a level of judo masters is only 50000 dollars, as long as the competition is completed, even if Meng fan wins the championship, it is not much.
Judo is a mainstream event, but its ability to attract money is really poor. It can't be compared with Tennis Masters with millions of dollars and golf masters with tens of millions of dollars, even snooker and other events.
Well, if you take out e-sports, it's also a second kill.
To put it another way, the Chinese domestic judo competition began to have a bonus system after Ms. Xian came to power. Of course, the amount is not high.
As for the bonuses of these three champions, Meng fan has not yet got them.
In other words, if it weren't for those incomes, Meng fan wouldn't be so entrenched that he dared to throw so 20 grand prizes in the lottery in the live broadcast. Besides this, Meng fan didn't go shopping with Wu Tong these days. Most of them were bought by Wu Tong after helping to choose and brought back to these sisters and sisters, all of which were put in the big box he was carrying.
But even with such extravagance, there is still a 7-digit balance in the card.
"Well, I'll send you the manuscript every Thursday in the future."
Meng fan also agreed to Takahashi Wulang's request to send the painting to them for review earlier. As for Takahashi Wulang's saying that the talk club wanted Meng fan to go to neon for a fan meeting, Meng fan refused: "it's better to wait until the pamphlet comes out, and then you can sign and sell it directly."
After chatting for two sentences, I ended the call. The neon pamphlet was definitely not published so early, and it must wait until it is stable after moving.
"Young people."
After seeing Meng fan hang up the phone, a middle-aged man sitting next to Meng fan asked curiously, "how do I think you look familiar? Are you a star?"
Looking familiar, I think it's a star, of course, because of Meng fan's charm. Otherwise, I'll ask if we've met somewhere.
Before Meng fan answered, a big uncle in the front row turned around and said, "this is not an ordinary star, but a sports star. We are proud of Wenshi! Cow!"
"Oh, I remember. I remember. Is it the one who fought badly?"
"It's not a fight, it's a wrestling match and Judo Match. However, the fight should also be very fierce, hahaha."
The conversation between the two people immediately attracted people who looked at Meng fan but were a little afraid, and joined the chat.
"Iron God doesn't just play these games. Does MMA know that comprehensive fighting is a real battle with real swords and guns? He is even more powerful! Fight South Korea alone and pass the customs. You talk about ox back, fire ox back!"
"God? This nickname is Niubei!"—— Iron God and God of heaven have similar pronunciation in Wenshi dialect.
A group of people talked and laughed. Seeing that Meng fan was not as cruel as they thought, they started to work after a disagreement. Instead, they laughed very kindly, and their desire to chat was even higher.
These middle-aged people who don't know Meng fan very well are also in a good mood. They feel that the young man is very infectious. Watching him laugh, they laugh inexplicably, and the journey adds a lot of joy.
Arriving at Ruicheng station in Wenshi at more than 6 p.m., it was already dark. Meng fan left the station with a marching bag and a super large box. Coupled with the sense of existence of this body, it was quite eye-catching.
"Look, Meng fan!"
"Really!"
"Meng fan is really warm!"
"Go over and see if you can take a group photo!"
"You have to be careful. I heard he has a bad temper."
"Really? How can I hear that he has a good temper?"
As Meng fan walked, he took his cell phone and sent a voice in the group: "I'm here. Are you really not coming to pick me up? Then I'll take a taxi back."
As for the one who came to take a group photo, Meng fan was still very cooperative, as long as he didn't block his way around him. Well, no one dared to block his way.
"Brother, this!"
Meng Cailan and Meng Caihui waved to Meng fan, then quickly stretched their hands into their pockets and stamped their feet, because it was cold!
Meng fan quickened his pace and said with a smile, "didn't you two say you couldn't come without picking up the fare?"
"Are we the kind of people who forget righteousness for profit and money, make trouble without giving gifts, and ignore you without red envelopes?"
"Brother caipeng! Is it really you? Have you changed too much? I thought I was hallucinating when watching TV! I'm really thin! Come on, brother, you've become so good-looking. How can I find a boyfriend in the future!"
"What boyfriend are you looking for on the second day of junior high school?"
"Why can't you find a boyfriend on the second day of junior high school? Xiao Lan had a boyfriend in the fifth grade!"
"Xiao Hui! What's the secret? If you want to do this, I'm not polite!"
The two younger sisters chirped around Meng fan. This is not the treatment for Meng fan when she became beautiful. It was the same when she was fat before.
Of course, there must be some changes. For example, both of them have made an appointment to accompany Meng fan to the Party of classmates and friends.
"The second sister waited in the car below. She was very lazy and said she was afraid of the cold."
The three of them walked towards the parking lot. Meng Cailian and Meng Caihe wanted to help carry something, but they gave up when they saw Meng Fanna's super large box. As for the marching bag, they weighed it for a while, hehe. Without weighing it, they thought nothing had happened.
When they were near the parking lot, Meng fan and the three of them saw Meng Cailian. At the same time, they also saw some people around here and a black SUV "Climbing" onto a small bridge car.
In addition, Meng Cailian seems to have a dispute with others.
"Who are you scolding?"
"Scold you! What's the matter? You hit someone's car so fast that the two big men didn't help save people after they got down, but also scolded on the side! My mother not only scolded you, but also beat you!"
"Hit me? Hit!"
PA!
Meng Cailian was not polite at all. When she swung it, she slapped it on the face that came close.
"How dare you hit me!"
The man who was slapped with a big mouth immediately became angry and also swung his big mouth towards Meng Cailian.
However, before the man's big mouth came, Meng Cailian had already kicked it with high heels, and the man immediately covered his feet and shouted.
There was another man beside the man. As soon as he stepped out of his legs, he was blocked by a huge figure.
This huge figure is naturally Meng fan, "sister, what's the matter?"
Meng Cailian was very happy to see Meng fan. Pointing to the folded car over there, she hurriedly said, "you're here, great! Hurry up, go over there and help, there are people in the back seat of the car! I can deal with these two brags! Hurry up!"
Meng fan put down the box and ran over quickly. The damage of the collision between the two cars was not very serious, but the tragedy was that the car was probably knocked out for a distance. One side of the car was directly attached to a low wall, and the black SUV climbed up from the other side and pressed the door on the other side of the back seat of the car.
The front passenger's door can be opened, but the people in the back seat can't climb because the roof is pressed down, not to mention the sunroof.
Meng fan quickly observed. It seemed that the driver and the people on the passenger seat had gone down from the passenger seat door, but there was a 20-year-old girl trapped in the back seat.
The car body quality is not good, and the SUV climbing on the car is heavy. If you stay inside all the time, no one can guarantee that the roof will continue to collapse, causing secondary damage to the girls in the back seat.
The police must have called the police. Several security guards and police from the bullet train station have also come, and several passers-by are trying to fix or get down the SUV on it.
"No, no! If you pull it like this, the roof will be unbearable!"
"I have to wait for the crane or some other machine!"
"Are there no big guys in the bullet train station?"
"Everyone is like this! If you are a little tired, take off your coat first and cover it for the children in the car. In case... You can cushion it for a while!"
"Hold on!"
A middle-aged couple both thanked and worried, and they all cried anxiously. The husband had obvious impact scars on his forehead.
Meng fan listened to these words, got a general understanding of the situation, made another round, and then stood next to the SUV like these people, looking for a grab position.
"You let go, I'll come."
