Rebirth of the Super Game Tycoon: 316 Well, I will terminate the contract with you (Part 1)
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Rebirth of Super Game Tycoon!
Jintai Book Building is the largest book mall in Yanjing. The mall is divided into five floors. The first floor is a very empty hall. This hall often holds activities such as book signings for authors, which are generally high-end. Many writers will choose to do their book signings here.
In fact, being able to hold a book signing in Jintai also represents the criterion for success as a writer.
At this time, the huge hall was packed with people.
A book signing is being held here, a book signing hosted by the King of Comics.
The King of Comics has serialized five comics so far, namely Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, Yu Yu Hakusho, Storm, and Batman.
These five comics have achieved great success, and each one has gathered many fans. The King of Comics has published more than ten issues so far, and each comic has reached more than ten chapters.
More than ten chapters are enough for a standalone book.
Ye Chui had already left his mother, Zhou Yayun, busy with the issue of the single volume. Today, the printing was finally completed and a book signing was held here.
Of course those present were the five cartoonists including Fang Xi who were serialized on Comic King.
In addition, in addition to comics, the books Ye Chui chose to release today also include three other books. One is the version of the Street Fighter novel written by Bai Miyun. The novel has hundreds of thousands of words and was specially drawn by Fang Xi. There are many exquisite illustrations and the cover design is also very beautiful. Although the content of this book is not much, it is mainly exquisite and deeply loved by readers.
In addition to Street Fighter, there is also the first and second volumes of Legend of the Condor Heroes.
The Legend of the Condor Heroes has been serialized on Professor Cha’s game website, and now it has 800,000 words of serialization.
This novel has a total of more than one million words. Ye Chui originally planned to publish a series of five single books, but Bai Miyun's human-shaped code machine was too fast to create. Ye Chui's Before the plan was implemented, the number of words on her side had exceeded 800,000, so Ye Chui simply changed the original five books into three books, upper, middle and lower, each with about 400,000 words.
The first and middle volumes of the series are currently on sale.
At the same time, Jin Yong's Legend of the Condor Heroes was previously developed by Ye Chui. The plot of the story is roughly consistent with the content of the novel, so this set of RPG games is sold as a bonus book. On the one hand, Ye Chui wants to increase the sales of Condor Shooting, and on the other hand, it is also to gain fame for RPGs first.
Ye Chui is currently developing the current version of Legend of Heroes, which is expected to be completed within half a month. Because this game is a classic, Ye Chui has spent a lot of energy on it. Therefore, whether this game is a classic or a sales success, Ye Chui hopes that it can achieve a miracle.
Ye Chui also put a lot of thought into the marketing of Fairy Sword.
In addition to the game, Ye Chui has now also started asking Bai Miyun to start the creation of the novel version of Fairy Sword, which he plans to serialize on the comic book King.
In addition, the famous theme song of the Sword and Sword series (Theme song of Sword and Sword 3 Gaiden, but it’s very nice. So Ye Chui took it out first, you can listen to it~~), has also been released Sister Ye Ling sang it and planned to release it as one of the main songs in Ye Ling's first album.
All of this is to build momentum for Fairy Sword.
This game has a different feeling for Ye Chui, or for most Chinese players, and it is worth Ye Chui's effort.
Today’s signing event is still in progress.
The book fans in the lobby were automatically divided into six teams, five of which were parties waiting for comic book signings. The other team was a party buying the novel versions of Condor Shooting and Street Fighter that were placed on the same shelf.
Both The Condor and Street Fighter were written by Bai Miyun. Originally, Ye Chui hoped that Bai Miyun would also come to participate, but after hearing that many people would be present for the autograph signing, Bai Miyun decisively refused. After receiving Ye Chui's invitation, Ye Chui was a little helpless. Knowing that this girl had reached a certain level, he could only let her go.
"It seems that this autograph session was quite successful."
There is a booth on the second floor of the Jintai Book Building that can be used for resting and reading. Sitting in the booth, you can see the scene of the hall below through the railings.
Ye Chui was sitting in this booth at this time. Looking at the scene of the autograph session in the hall.
"Although the comic book King has only published a dozen issues, it has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The single volumes are naturally very popular. I predict that each of the five comics will sell more than 10,000 copies today." Sitting in Ye Chui Opposite is Ye Chui's mother, Zhou Yayun. Different from the casual look she usually has at home, she is now dressed in a women's suit. After these few months, she has completely returned to work.
At this time, Zhou Yayun had a faint smile on his face: "Originally, I wasn't sure how much the single volume could sell. So only 50,000 copies of each volume were printed, and it seems that more copies will be printed."
"The sales of the novel versions of The Condor and Street Fighter are also quite good. Although there is no signing ceremony, it should be no problem to sell tens of thousands of copies today." Ye Chui continued. He was very satisfied with the sales of the books, but Ye Chui didn't have many surprises.
Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, Yu Yu Hakusho, Feng Yun, and Batman are very famous comics in the first place. It is normal to have such sales results.
Not to mention Shooting the Condor, this new martial arts theme undoubtedly has a large audience in China. Even the Street Fighter novel version has a certain number of fans, so it is certain to be a big seller.
Zhou Yayun picked up the tea in front of her and took a sip. She couldn't help laughing when she thought of something.
"Mom, why are you laughing?" Ye Chui couldn't help but be curious.
"It's nothing, I just thought of something." Zhou Yayun said with a smile, "After our comic magazine appeared, we encountered resistance and confrontation from many comic magazines. However, single volumes of comic books, even if they are signed by famous celebrities, The sales meeting may not be as popular as it is now. Today, the situation here is reported, and I don’t know how those people will be furious.”
The sales of Comic King Magazine are very smooth. So far, the nationwide sales volume in one week has reached 500,000 copies, and the numbers are still increasing.
Ye Chui knew that when the three major comics, Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, and Yu Yu Hakusho, were serialized together in Shonen Jump magazine, the magazine's sales reached a peak of more than six million copies.
How many people are there in Japan?
Now the main audience of the King of Comics is China. Although he does not have a good comic foundation, Ye Chui believes that good comics will definitely attract others to like him. When the sales of King of Comics have completely opened up, the sales volume of comics in a week is said to be Maybe it will directly break through the tens of millions level.
Such a good format naturally makes a lot of established comic magazines extremely enthusiastic.
During this period, the King of Comics also encountered many obstacles, but Zhou Yayun originally had some skills. On the contrary, we got through it safely without any mistakes.
Ye Chui looked downstairs and saw several reporters covering the order of the scene. He couldn't help but smile. People like the editor-in-chief of Comic Weekly would definitely not feel good after seeing the reports here.
"By the way, hammer." Zhou Yayun looked at Ye Chui. Suddenly, a smile appeared on his face, "Why didn't Nannan come with you today?"
My mother, Zhou Yayun, loved Fang Nan very much and wished that Ye Chui would marry Fang Nan back home right away.
"Haha, he has something to do today and can't come. I will take her home in a while." Ye Chui said with a smile. This was not an excuse. Today is Fang Bei’s birthday. Because Fang Dong was hospitalized, Fang Bei has been in the hospital these days. Fang Nan knew that Fang Bei had been feeling guilty about this incident, so she specially made a cake for Fang Bei and sent it to the hospital. , it can be regarded as celebrating her in the hospital.
Ye Chui also plans to go to the hospital after noon. He has been thinking about the communication from Xiao Zhang that he heard in the past two days. I want to tell Director Fang about this.
"Hey, your dad and I both like this girl Nannan very much. You have to be firmly grasped by me no matter what." Zhou Yayun said nonchalantly, "I said hammer, why not Did you get engaged first?"
"Mom, don't worry about these things. Your daughter-in-law will definitely not be able to run away. Nannan and I have a very stable relationship. But for the time being, we are not old enough and have no plans to get married." Ye Chui I reluctantly agreed, as parents seemed to be particularly concerned about their son's marriage.
He suddenly thought that his relationship with Fang Nan had not been able to develop further. Wang Shiyu still slept between the two of them every night. He didn't think too much about marriage for the time being. The key was The two of them have been together for such a long time, so they should at least take this step... It brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.
In this way, I was chatting with my mother about comic magazines, although in terms of comic creation. Because Ye Chui has memories of another world, he has deep insights, but Ye Chui is far less professional than his mother when it comes to magazine sales. During the conversation, Ye Chui also understood that his mother had her own plans for magazine sales. To gradually open up nationwide sales, she even has plans to launch it abroad in the future.
It was noon in a blink of an eye.
After the autograph signing, Ye Chui and a group of cartoonists and employees of Comic King Magazine went to a nearby hotel for dinner at noon.
Ye Chui has always been generous in this regard. Since the autograph signing was so successful, he naturally wanted to treat everyone to a good meal.
It was the first time for those cartoonists to see Ye Chui. After Fang Xi's introduction, they came over to say hello to Ye Chui.
They all understand that on the surface they are cartoonists, but in fact their cartooning skills are limited and they are just drawing. It is Ye Chui who really determines whether a cartoon is popular or successful. Storyboard.
Yewei is what really makes them popular.
Therefore, most cartoonists admire and respect Ye Chui very much. However, only most of them, one of them seems not so happy.
This man is called Uradō, and he is the main writer of Batman in the manga King.
His painting style is very similar to that of Mei Man, and the Batman he draws is quite interesting.
At the same time, this man was also very arrogant. He seemed a little out of place with other people during the meal. He didn't talk to others very much. He also had an expression on his face as if someone owed him money - he was very unhappy and unhappy. reasons.
To draw comics in the King of Comics, it would take him several hours to draw a drawing, but the price Ye Chui gave him was only one hundred yuan.
One hundred yuan for a painting would have made him extremely happy. For him, this was definitely a huge income. Before that, he was painting advertising paintings, which was very low-level. , the maximum price for a painting is only about ten yuan, and it is not stable. The hundred yuan here made Ye Chui wake up laughing at night.
However, human desires can never be satisfied. As the King of Comics gradually became successful, his Batman was loved by more and more people, and he also had a group of fans to support him. He felt The price of one hundred yuan for another one is a bit low - according to the income of the King of Comics, Ye Chui can earn at least several thousand from one painting!
At today's book signing, Pu Ting felt even more uncomfortable when he saw his enthusiastic book fans.
Why do you who work the hardest get only this little benefit?
Ye Chui can get so much money just by thinking about stories?
Finally, he made a decision and came to Ye Chui.
"Mr. Ye, I think my royalties should be increased, right?" Pu Ding said straightforwardly.
The hotel room was quiet for a while, and the issue of royalties was considered a sensitive issue.
Ye Chui looked indifferent: "I originally wanted to increase my manuscript fee with you, how much do you want to increase it?"
A trace of greed flashed in Pu Ding's eyes, and he said: "One piece...a thousand yuan!" (To be continued.
