Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 203 I Can Be Killed Just by Watching a Movie

The second chapter of "Unnatural Death" has already begun to show signs of momentum.

This made Yanjiao Publishing House and Mozhu Bookstore collectively lose their voices. Some people don't understand how Higashinoji's comics, which showed a huge decline at the beginning, came from behind, but at this time you let them let go of their mouths. possible.

After all, they have already scolded them. If they withdraw their words, they will not be slapped in the face. Even the Yanjiao Publishing House and Youmozhu Bookstore behind them will be pulled out and flogged by some caring people.

And this is just the beginning of the trend. The comic market is changeable, and there are also periodic changes. Maybe Higashinoji just hits that time?

It is not too early to lose hope!

Based on these reasons, they can only post another soft article, 'rationally analyze' the reasons why the second episode of Higashino Division can rise, and predict that the next episode of "Unnatural Death" should fall again.

It's just that the tone used this time is not as sure as the last time "the manga genius Higashinoji has fallen", but hesitant, using a lot of words like "probably" and "perhaps", and his credibility has plummeted.

Regarding their hesitant rhetorical attitude, Kazuya Akasaka did not hesitate at all, and made an urgent weekly magazine on the same day, making a special trip to ridicule the hesitation of the two major publishing houses-wasn’t Higashinoji already the world a few days ago? Is it the end?Why did you suddenly change your face today?Face changers are not like you.

At the same time, Kazuya Akasaka also promoted his own "Chaojin" manga review magazine without hesitation, which is definitely much more objective and fair than the other two weekly magazines!Do not believe?Then I will slap my face and predict that the next "Unnatural Death" by Higashino Division will rise even more!

Kazuya Akasaka is also a professional shit stirrer. In fact, whether "Unnatural Death" wins, or "Sunshine" and "Hana Sakura" wins, it has nothing to do with him.

He only needs to watch the show next to him, and he will be able to catch the heat. Of course, he still has to step on the two major publishing houses. No chance.

With the indiscriminate bombardment outside, even Sakamoto, who led the Mozhu Bookstore, was approached by the editor-in-chief.

The editor-in-chief of Mozhu Bookstore also had a good temper and comforted his pillar author, telling him to stabilize his mind, and it would be great fun not to let Higashinoji's comics rise, but his comics fell.

After all, Higashino Division's performance has not surpassed him yet.

What the editor-in-chief of Mozhu Bookstore said made Sakamoto feel uncomfortable. He said that he was very happy on the show before, which was really happy, but now that he is about to be beaten by Higashino Division, he can no longer be optimistic.

He really didn't want to go back to the days when he was dominated by Higashino Division again.

Depression, depression.

But comics have to be drawn.

Several home entertainment media approached him, hoping that he could participate in an exclusive interview, but he avoided them and said he would not participate.

Yes.

This time he didn't dare to do the interview, he felt that if he did the interview again, he would probably be ridiculed enough, there's no need to waste his mentality

The shadow of Higashino Division is about to cage Sakamoto, but Fujiwara Aoi and the others on the other side are doing well.

"It's so beautiful! I knew this story would be reversed! How could it end so easily." Takahashi Yumi put down "Aversion to Chill" and yelled at Konoe Lianghua who had already changed into her pajamas on the other side: "Cool Flower! Come and see your boyfriend's new work! It's really good"

She was stunned halfway through saying this sentence, and then she frowned, and a hint of disbelief flashed in her big black eyes: "Lianghua, have you grown up again?"

"Huh? No?" Konoe Lianghua didn't quite understand the basis for Takahashi Yumi's statement. Her height was measured just yesterday, and it basically didn't change, but she gained weight, and she didn't know where it went.

"There's no such thing as Aoi. Come here and see if she's grown up."

"Ah? What's grown up?" Aoi Fujiwara, who was still wiping her hair with a towel, turned her head incomprehensibly. When she saw Konoe Suzuka changing into her pajamas, she also stood there in a daze. It took a while before she spoke: "Indeed, Lianghua, you haven't stayed at Yumi's house for a long time, I just found out"

It is indeed a little bigger!

He suffocated and didn't say this.

"I rubbed it up! It's my credit!" Takahashi Yumi sat beside her cheerfully, and without hesitation began to show her credit. She felt that she rubbed it up, because she was the only one who would touch it from time to time. Guard cool flowers.

what?

It wasn't until this moment that Konoe Lianghua realized that this guy was referring to her body part, and she immediately blocked it with her hand: "I didn't feel it, Yumi, Aoi, don't talk nonsense. Let's read manga."

Konoe Suzuka shielded herself, sat down next to Takahashi Yumi, and flipped through "Aversion to Cold".

The entire plot of this episode is carried out very neatly, and Dong Yesi himself has a bonus in painting skills, which makes people really comfortable to watch.

I don't know how Sansumi Mikoto will solve the problem of cyber violence in the future. I am looking forward to it.

Looking at it, she could think of Higashino Si's face sideways, slightly proud of his own work, so she squinted her eyes happily.

Sure enough, Asi was right, there was nothing wrong with "Unnatural Death".

Konoe Lianghua closed "Aversion to Chill" contentedly, and was caught by Takahashi Yumi behind.

She couldn't help it anymore, she had to check to see if Konoe Lianghua had grown up.

Aoi Fujiwara next to her also probed her head, very curious.

"What are you going to do?"

Konoe Lianghua's face turned red all of a sudden, and after a symbolic struggle, she was helpless, and was dragged to bed by the two of them—forced to undergo an examination.

While Konoe Lianghua and Fujiwara Aoi were arguing, on the other side Higashinoji felt relieved after seeing this week's results.

Although he is quite confident in "Unnatural Death", the results in the first week are really only average for him. Seeing more than 300 votes at this time, it can be regarded as a feeling of "finally getting on the right track" .

He was like this, and Hosokawa Koharu on the other side was even more like this - when she saw this data, she directly slapped the table excitedly.

Because no one can really control 100% of the market, if Higashinoji's manga is bad, she will also take the blame.

But it's okay—higashinoji and her predictions were right, at least for now.

Hope to have a happy turnaround in the future!

In this way, everyone was mixed with joy and anger, and the time went smoothly to the next week.

Yanjiao Publishing House Ozawada's readers' favorable votes are 570 votes, which is a drop, but this drop is acceptable, and it can still rise a little bit when the plot reaches the explosive point.

In addition to Ozawada, there is also Sakamoto from Mozhu Bookstore. Compared with Ozawada, he can only be regarded as okay. His robot sci-fi manga has 490 votes for the first chapter, 480 two votes for the second chapter, and 450 two votes for the third chapter. That's [-] three votes, a slightly larger drop, but it can be considered as a drop for ordinary authors.

But from here, we can also see the disadvantages of robot science fiction comics.

The start may be very good, but if you want to maintain this start and avoid creative collisions with other comics, this is too much a test of the comic book author's skills.

Let me give you a very simple example—the period before the starting point, when novels about divorce, waste wood, and son-in-law were all the rage.

Many readers simply click the little fork in the upper right corner whenever they see waste wood, divorced marriage, and son-in-law.

After all, the first person who eats crabs is a smart person, the second person who eats crabs is a person who is good at finding opportunities, and the third and fourth people are fools.

It is estimated that Sakata’s decline will continue for a week or two before he finally stabilizes at a relatively stable result. Unless he draws a particularly good plot in the later stage, it will be basically difficult to get out of the quagmire.

As everyone's focus, the third chapter of "Unnatural Death" received 390 three votes from readers!Only [-] votes left to keep up with Kurogong Mingsha's "Desolate Island" and win the first place!

The increase in the number of votes for this explosion made everyone lose their voices.

The days when "Unnatural Death" ranked second with more than 200 votes seem to be vividly remembered, but what is going on now?Is it really going to be a big fire?

The third chapter is still skyrocketing, and there is no meaning of falling at all, which means that there is still momentum behind this comic, and even to put it badly, maybe the fifth and sixth chapters will be the best among the three major clubs today. Ozawada stabbed down.

But that also requires Unnatural Death not to regress like other comics, but to continue to climb.

Of course, the abnormal phenomenon of "unnatural death" and the phenomenon of continuous skyrocketing have also attracted the interest of many comic publishing houses

How did you get there?

Something is wrong. Something is wrong.

Aside from the secret rivalry between publishing houses, Sakamoto of Mozhu Bookstore is getting more and more panicked now.

Higashino's grades continued to rise, which made him uneasy from time to time. He picked up the statistical data sheet and looked at it, as if he could eat up the more than 300 votes of Higashino's "Unnatural Death" with his eyes.

He has also been studying Higashino Division's "Unnatural Death", and he clearly understands that the other party's current plot is at most in the middle, the first case has not been solved yet, and it is far from the real climax.

Sakamoto predicts that in the fifth or sixth episode, Higashinoji's first incident is completely resolved. If the ending is good, then Ozawada may not be able to beat him.If the finish is off the mark then he still has a chance.

But the reason is that this reason expects others to have problems?It's bullshit just thinking about it.

The editor-in-chief also repeatedly emphasized that he should stabilize his mentality.

But can you tell me how to stabilize this state of mind?I can't stand it anymore, I can't stand it anymore.

The shadow of being dominated by Higashino is spreading——

This made Sakamoto a little annoyed, pinching the statistics table for a long time in a daze.

He was out of breath here, but Dongyesi and Hosokawa Koharu were refreshed!The old rhythm is back!Everything is going according to the prescribed route!If you keep going like this, there will be absolutely no problem!

Especially Hosokawa Koharu, a few days ago she always walked with her head down and didn't know what she was thinking. When editor-in-chief Urashima called her, she didn't mean to raise her head at all. Finally came back to his senses, looked carefully and even had dark circles under his eyes.

But now Hosokawa Koharu has returned to the state before the serialization of "Unnatural Death". He has enough rest, looks very energetic, and his voice is getting louder.

The editor next to her was envious when she saw her like this—is this the first time Mr. Higashino and Editor Hosokawa are about to take the first place?

There is really nothing to say about this performance ability.

They sighed here, but they didn’t forget that the manga writer under the opponent sighed: "Teacher, look at the works of Mr. Higashino, why can his works get up after falling into the quagmire, but the works of the two of us can't get up? "

This is a question that requires reflection.

discuss, reflect

Not to mention the situation of Higashino Division.

He already had the feeling that he was in control of the situation in the second episode, and the current momentum of the third episode is also within his consideration.

The script is going in the direction he expected.

"Unnatural Death" gradually bloomed its brilliance.

The next step is to stabilize this momentum and continue to go up!

"According to this momentum, when the fifth chapter is drawn, the evaluation of "Unnatural Death" should have a blowout stage. It is not expected that the sales volume of the single book should be able to secure the first place."

Higashino Division more and more confident.

His original intention was not to spend too much energy with the other two major publishing houses on the number of readers' positive votes.

Because the only thing that can really measure the strength of an author is the sales of single volumes.

Even if Higashinoji's "Unnatural Death" has more positive votes than Sakamoto and the others, it can only simply mean that it is a phased victory. From a long-term perspective, the only thing that really affects the performance of a manga is sales!

Weekly sales, monthly sales, annual sales, average volume sales of the entire work!

Sales volume is everything in the industry, and it is the achievement that is truly recognized by the public.

If you want to fight for the first place in sales!

After all, the reason why Yanjiao Publishing House and Mozhu Publishing House competed with him at the same time was to kill Higashino in terms of book sales.

It's a battle of your life or my life.

Thinking of this, Higashino took up the dip pen again and continued to draw on the manga original paper.

The fourth chapter of "Unnatural Death" also officially started serialization in this state of writing and drawing.

It was at this time that something that Higashino had never expected happened-"Unnatural Death" was not in the blowout stage of the fifth episode, but in the fourth episode, the topicality and votes surged!

The fourth chapter of "Unnatural Death" manga received 540 and [-] votes from readers!

Completely surpassed and threw away more than 100 votes from "The Island of Desolation" by Meisa Kuromiya, and sat on the bench of the top leader of "Aversion to Chill" again!

As soon as this news came out, it was not just the review magazines under the stubborn Yanjiao Publishing House and Mozhu Publishing House.

Even Fuji Press, which has always maintained a neutral wait-and-see attitude, was completely stunned.

Wait a minute

I do want to see you fight, but we don't want to see a book sales monster appear

Why does it feel like I'm going to be killed as a theatergoer?
