Chapter 36
Wang He, 30 years old, Yu has been a signed cartoonist for Cuttlefish since his debut at the age of nineteen. Step by step, he has serialized some short comics in Cuttlefish's second- and third-line comic magazines to now in Cuttlefish's top periodicals. With the work of Tianshu, Yingshang firmly occupied the second place in the popular vote for two years.
For a cartoonist, he can be regarded as a result of years of persistence and fame. He also lived the prosperous life he wanted with the income from comics. Although the status of the first Demon Realm in the movie is unshakable, but He was already satisfied.
However, this situation changed three weeks ago after the serialization of the two new works began.
Although he was shocked that Dong Yun's new Hidden Girl squeezed him to third place in the first episode, but in comparison, he still has a cognition of himself.
Indeed, in the status of a cartoonist in Los Angeles, he is indeed inferior to Dong Yun. According to last year's media statistics, in the ranking of Los Angeles cartoons, he only barely surpassed tenth and ranked ninth.
And Dong Yun has been in the top three for two years.
Although he was surprised by the aggressiveness of Dong Yun's new works, he had a certain premonition that he was surpassed by Dong Yun's new works.
But he couldn't think that two weeks ago, Dong Yun's new work burst the chrysanthemum, and after the ranking dropped to third, the new Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance series serialized with the hidden girl actually carried the impact of the impact. Watching him stare at him.
He must not be able to bear it anymore. In any case, he is also the old writer of Cuttlefish. Dong Yun, who was quit, was surpassed and he could barely accept it psychologically. At home gatherings, these guys will definitely laugh at it.
Now in his home, he and his three assistants are writing the latest story of Tianshu with serious expressions. They are stimulated by the secret girl and Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance. In the latest story, Wang He also speeds up the plot, bringing the protagonists The combat action has been redesigned. Compared with the original picture concept, it looks much more handsome. Of course, such scenes are also much harder to draw.
Such key shots were done by himself alone, with the brush in his hand steadily drawing, and his eyes were extremely serious, just like he had just stepped into this industry 11 years ago.
He does not resent the threat that Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance poses to him. As for the comics industry, it was originally the waves behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves forward, but in any case, he is considered one of the top cartoonists in Los Angeles. He really encountered the challenge of new works, and he would not give up so easily.
...
In the entire Cuttlefish Comics club, they were shocked by Dong Yun's new work ranking second in popularity in three consecutive episodes. The new comic artist Shui Xin's new work even surpassed Wang He's Tianshu momentum to make them even more touched.
Such a thing has never happened in the history of comics in Los Angeles.
Even many people's eyes are not just seeing the present. If... Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance Chapter is more popular than Tianshu, then who will its opponent be next?
Going up, there are only two works!
Although temporarily ranked second, the number of popular votes continues to be the hidden girl who is narrowing the gap with the first.
He is the most popular manga for three years, the cuttlefish manga...Magicland.
Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance, is it possible to create miracles?
...
Soon, the fourth chapter of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance was released.
That night, the voting statistics from the first to the fourth were also released.
The first place is still Demon Realm, with more than 37,000 votes.
Second place, Hidden Girl, with more than 35,000 votes.
Third place, Tianshu, with more than 28,000 votes.
The fourth place, Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance, more than 25,000 votes.
...
The editors of the Cuttlefish Comics Club who learned of the voting results were silent for a while.
On the surface, the ranking in this issue seems to have not changed much from the previous issue.
But in fact, the situation is quite different.
First of all, the number of votes for the first and second places in Demon Realm and Hidden Girl is on the rise, which proves that the battle for the first place in the movie has spread to their respective fan groups.
Although some diehard fans of the two for many years do not like to vote on the Internet after buying comics, they can't sit still at this time and vote for their favorite works.
However, Tianshu fell from the threshold of more than 30,000 votes, and Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance once again achieved a surge in popularity.
In the first episode, more than 4,000 votes were cast, in the second episode, more than 14,000 votes were cast, and in the third episode, there were more than 19,000 votes.
In the fourth episode now, it has already broken through the 20,000 votes mark, reaching the number of more than 25,000 votes.
Nowadays, the top four most popular comics on the entire manga show a weird situation.
The hidden girl stared at the first throne of the Demon Realm, and Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance chapter followed this momentum. If the next period continues to increase like this, it should be able to squeeze Tianshu from the third position.
Not to mention the Cuttlefish Comics Club, the entire Los Angeles comic community is dumbfounded at the competition among these four works on the comic.
As these four works compete with each other, and the two new works, Hidden Girl and Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance, have been added to Man Ying, Man Ying has also achieved a surge in sales.
From the sales volume of around 350,000 per week in the past, it has now increased by 100,000.
In one fell swoop, it became the highest-selling periodical among all the comic journals issued in Los Angeles.
...
In a tavern, Wang He, the author of Tianshu, sat with another man, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com was drinking.
"It's over, brother, I can't stand it anymore! In the next issue, I should be surpassed by that newcomer's work." Wang He's slightly fat face was full of rosy, and his tone was helpless but helpless.
"Shen Xin, you have to stand it up. How can Dong Yun, a cartoonist who grew up in Cuttlefish, make it easy to climb to the top like this? That, that's too shameful..."
Shen Xin is the author of the super-popular work Demonland on the comics. He looks younger than Wang He, and he looks a little more gentle.
"I feel that I am almost there. I should be ranked first in a few weeks." Wang Xin laughed at himself.
Both of them understand, what is the concept of a new work that has such popularity in the early stages of the serialization?
The reason why Shen Xin's Demon Realm can still stay in the first place is entirely because this work has been serialized for a long time and the reader base is large enough, but as the number of serialized words of the hidden girl increases, it will be sooner or later that the Demon Realm will be surpassed. thing.
"Oh!" Wang He sighed.
"The old cartoonists of our ink film are all looking at you and me!"
"After all, we and Dong Yun used to be in a competitive state. Before, she was the number one in Fengyu. Now if she comes over, our cuttlefish is also number one. Isn't it just to prove that our cuttlefish cartoonist is not good..."
"First?" Shen Xin shook his head.
"I don't think so."
"I feel that it will take at least a few weeks for the hidden girl to squeeze me down. At that time, it may be like the situation!"
"You mean?" Wang He also realized what Shen Xin meant.
"Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance Chapter..."
