Chapter 209 Monster Level "Unnatural Death"

The sales volume of 1 is really not good.

But in this struggle, his sales of 1 copies are really not enough, it is really the kind of level that can only be heard when thrown into the meat grinder battlefield.

Sakamoto sighed, but there was nothing he could do about the situation.

Regardless of him, everyone is paying attention to the release date.

Not only Urashima Publishing House, but also Fuji Publishing House.

Fuji Press is a little bit lost.

""Unnatural Death" sold [-] copies in one hour, and Mr. Ozawada's new comics sold [-] copies"

Furuta Shinji looked at the data at hand and took a deep breath, and at the same time tilted his head and smiled and asked Suzuki Yu, who came to the editorial department once in a while: "Mr. Suzuki, don't you want to say something after looking at this data?"

He can be regarded as having fun while suffering, there is no way this gap is too terrifying.

Suzuki Hagami's manga volumes at Urashima Publishing House sold 80 copies on average, which can be regarded as a great success, but compared with Higashinoji and Ozawada, the gap is still not small.

Judging from the situation, "Unnatural Death" is basically going to hit the manga with an average sales volume of 150 million volumes, and Ozawada's manga is honestly a bit difficult to estimate.

After all, compared to Higashino Division, Ozawada's fan base is too solid.

The specific situation of Ozawada's manga has to wait until the second volume of the booklet comes out.

"The fan base doesn't represent everything." Suzuki Yu said palely with dark circles under his eyes: "This time there is a high probability that Mr. Higashino will win."

"Oh? Is that why you have confidence in Higashino-sensei?" Furuta Shinji said with a smile: "This is the first volume sales competition that tests the fan base the most. Logically speaking, Ozawa-sensei should have the advantage."

"Of course Mr. Higashino will win." Suzuki Yu stood up, knowing that Furuta Shinji was asking the question knowingly.

Relying on the advantage of fans, Ozawada did not close the gap with Higashinoji in the first hour. Then when the popularity of fans gradually faded, the competition was quality.

She stood up and seemed to want to go out.

"Mr. Suzuki, what are you going to do? The specifics of your manga and animation will come out soon, don't you wait any longer?"

"It's okay, Mr. Higashino's manga is very interesting, I just bought it and read it."

Suzuki Yu turned around and answered very simply.

Furuta Shinji also shook his head for Suzuki Yu's behavior of supporting the enemy, but Higashinoji was not bad for her book sales, so Furuta Shinji ignored her.

Suzuki Yu quickly went downstairs, and soon found a bookstore.

This is quite normal. After all, Fuji Publishing House itself is located in a prosperous area, and there is no shortage of buildings such as bookstores and malls.

As soon as he entered the bookstore, Suzuki Yu picked up the shopping basket on one side and began to load the booklet of "Unnatural Death" into it.

She packed more than 100 volumes, and the readers who were waiting in line to buy the booklet of "Unnatural Death" were stunned.

They have seen people who buy two copies at once, and they have seen people who support Dong Yesi to buy more than ten copies, but this is the first time they have seen such a ruthless person who directly bought more than 100 copies.

Seeing that she was about to finish loading "Unnatural Death" at the front desk, there was a young man in the back with a booklet of "Unnatural Death" in his hand.

He is also a fan of Higashinoji, and he plans to buy two copies, one for collection and one for viewing, but he hasn't had time to get the second one, and now it looks like it will be gone.

So he hurriedly said hello: "Excuse me, can you leave a copy for me?"

"Huh?" Suzuki Yu was stunned, and then seriously read the unopened "Unnatural Death" in his hand, and after thinking for a while, he said: "I want to ask if you still want the book in your hand?" , can you give it to me?"

what? !

This Suzuki Yu bought the entire counter and was still thinking about what he had in his hand.

The young man was stunned immediately, and then he covered the "Unnatural Death" in his hand and shook his head, expressing that he would never sell it.

This action caused Suzuki Yu to shake his head helplessly, and walked to the front desk to pay with the heavy shopping basket in his hand: "Please give me a box and ask a clerk to help deliver it to Fuji Publishing House next door."

As Higashino Division's true fan, that's all she can do.

It can be regarded as a little bit of effort, and I hope that Higashino Division can successfully defeat Ozawada - she can't understand the unfair competition between Yanjiao Publishing House and Mozhu Bookstore.

However, this is an obvious behavior of supporting the enemy. Suzuki Yu also pinched his chin, thinking that he would only buy ten copies next time, not more.

What if she buys too much and she can't catch up with Dong Yesi?

While Suzuki Yu was thinking, he led the bookstore clerk into the Fuji Publishing House. At this time, the editorial department of Iwakaku Publishing House on the other side fell silent.

There was a real silence.

Even though today is a working day, not many people are handing over comics, and the entire editorial department is quiet.

This is also of course.

Because the editorial department of Yanjiao Publishing House predicted that Ozawada would surpass the sales volume of "Unnatural Death" by [-] copies in the first hour.

But no one thought that Higashinoji would bite so hard, Ozawada and Higashinoji were only a thousand copies behind in sales.

This greatly exceeded their expectations. Similarly, they also knew that the sales of one thousand copies were very unstable.

"Unnatural Death" is likely to overtake in the second hour, and we must find a way.

But no matter how you try to do it, this situation is still somewhat difficult to change.

After all, they can't operate in secret when it comes to sales, can they?

If it is exposed at that time, the reputation of Yanjiao Publishing House will be damaged.

They don't have to be quick.

"Mr. Ozawa, what do you think of this data?"

Editor-in-Chief Yamano thought about it and asked Ozawada beside him.

"Ms. Higashino is really good." Ozawada couldn't see any disappointed expression on his face: "Even if you have a fan base, it's still a bit difficult to beat Mr. Higashino."

Ozawada is considered a more down-to-earth person in this turmoil.

He didn't try to smear Higashinoji, even if Higashinoji's "Unnatural Death" had mediocre results in the first chapter, he didn't accept an exclusive interview like Sakamoto did to comment on this matter.

In fact, it also proved that his idea was correct.

Even he felt that he would be knocked to the ground by Dong Yesi.

But that's actually fine.

In this way, comic authors in the comic industry will not always focus on robot comics.

The backwaters of robot comics feel like they're finally getting out of the quagmire.

"Mr. Ozawa, you and I thought that the performance of "Unnatural Death" is really amazing." The editor-in-chief of Yanjiao Publishing House Yamano also sighed.

The higher-ups gave him the task of defeating Dong Yesi and pressing Dong Yesi down again, but now it seems that this request seems a bit difficult to complete.

The family knows their own affairs.

With the extra [-] sales, it is definitely not difficult for Higashino to surpass it today.

Ozawada has fans, and Higashinoji is not a vegetarian.

But when he thought that Higashino had suppressed him once in Komori Ken, the editor-in-chief of Yamano was somewhat out of breath.

He didn't expect Higashino Division and Hosokawa Koharu to have such a good relationship, and he was willing to have a bad relationship with him, the editor-in-chief of Yanjiao Publishing House, for an editor who might be changed frequently.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this.

He was a little depressed, but there was nothing he could do.

In this situation where people from all parties are focusing their attention, soon, the data of "Unnatural Death" and Ozawada's new comics will come out.

"Unnatural Death" sold [-] copies in its second hour, showing little sign of falling.

Ozawada's new manga sold [-] copies in the second hour, a drop of [-] copies compared to the first hour.

This is quite normal. The first hour is always when the sales volume is the highest. The further you go, the more the sales volume will drop, and finally it will stabilize at a relatively stable sales volume.

In the third hour, more than 500 copies of "Unnatural Death" not only did not fall, but even increased slightly.

Sales of Ozawada's new manga dropped to [-] copies.

So far, "Unnatural Death" has completed its lead.

But other publishers are no longer focusing on this.

They had guessed this result as early as the second hour when the sales of "Unnatural Death" did not drop.

But in the third hour, "Unnatural Death" not only didn't drop in sales, but even increased in sales, they were completely dumbfounded.

The strength of "Unnatural Death" is simply exaggerated.

It has been three hours, but there is no drop, and there is a slight rise. What kind of monster is this?

But things that surprise them are still happening.

"Unnatural Death" was so strong for six hours, and finally rose a little bit, climbing to [-] copies per hour.

Originally, there were a lot of manga in the back to see when it fell, but I didn't expect it to become longer. What's the situation?

In this way, "Unnatural Death" withstood the pressure until the tenth hour, and finally began to gradually decline, and finally stabilized at a sales volume of [-] per hour-this place is relatively stable, and it will definitely fall later , no matter any comics can't escape this law.

But even so

The results of "Unnatural Death" are also exaggerated.

During the same period, the stable data of Ozawada manga was [-] copies per hour, and the sales volume of Sakamoto of Mozhu Bookstore was [-] copies per hour.

So compared to Higashino Division's achievements, it is absolutely no problem to say that a monster.

As for those nameless publishers who want to join in the fun

If one or two thousand copies can be sold in an hour, it is already very popular.

The market was really squeezed to the limit, Higashino really accidentally crushed many manga authors to death like crushing ants.

Under such circumstances, of course, some print media began to comment—they dared not speak when the sales volume of "Unnatural Death" was not fully displayed, for fear of making a wrong estimate.

But now that "Unnatural Death" has come out on top, of course they're going to start buzzing.

This heat is not for nothing.

As a result, there were suddenly a lot of articles analyzing the plot of "Unnatural Death" on the market. After a rigorous analysis, it seemed that even the storyboard of a scene drawn by Higashino had to figure out the intention.

This made Higashino Division also taste what is called 'reading comprehension'.

However, there are too many plot analyzes of "Unnatural Death", and it is impossible for everyone to catch up with this enthusiasm.

So some people began to talk about the same period between Ozawada and Higashinoji. After all, Ozawada is a big pillar of Yanjiao Publishing House, and Higashinoji is also a big pillar of Urashima Publishing House. It is necessary to compare the two.

After analyzing and analyzing the past in this way, even the neglected Mozhu Bookstore Sakamoto was dragged out and flogged severely. The remarks he made on TV before were dug up, and many people laughed at him.

Look at you, how dare you mock Mr. Dongye for being so good?You sold 1 copies in the first hour,

This really made Sakamoto feel like crying.

1 volumes in the first hour is really not good. It is a small pillar level in any publishing house. How did it become a special dish in your mouth?

And why didn't you report me on my previous release day?At this time, he suddenly jumped out and whipped the corpse?

Sakamoto's life is really miserable, but he still has no way to vent.

Because Higashinoji is far ahead of him in terms of readers' praise and sales.

In the manga industry, it still depends on the sales of single volumes. Without sales as a base, Sakamoto can only be beaten.

Wronged, really wronged.

The current situation can be said to be very good. "Unnatural Death" is a big hit, and it has a tendency to become popular.

If it weren't for the fact that there are only five episodes at present, it is estimated that some people will come to ask about the situation of TV series or animation.

Hosokawa Koharu also had a good time.

As a new editor who joined Urashima Publishing House last year, after continuously 'training' Higashinoji to draw several popular comics, the editor-in-chief Urashima also handed over the position of editorial leader to her.

While she is in charge of Higashino Division, she is also in charge of four newcomer manga editors, and as the team leader, Hosokawa Koharu also has the right to participate in the serialization meeting (discussing the cut-off work or the new serialization meeting.)

This can be regarded as a carp leaping over the dragon's gate, but Hosokawa Xiaochun felt a little guilty.

It is well said to the outside world that Dong Yesi was trained.

Internally, she actually felt that Higashino Division had cultivated herself.

She is also confused.

Why did I become the group leader just by doing this?

But fortunately, she is quite experienced compared to those few newcomers, and she can still help them with some common sense issues.

Of course, what the four new editors were most curious about was about Higashinoji.

They felt that the rise of Higashinoji and Hosokawa Koharu was simply too bizarre.

This made Hosokawa Koharu somewhat relieved.

Some common sense questions can be answered, and she can also reveal a little bit about the things that are curious about Higashinoji.

The position of the team leader is secure.

The old editor didn't talk too much. After all, Hosokawa Koharu has made great achievements this year, and it's because she is a newcomer and a woman. Otherwise, it is probably her turn to take the position of deputy editor-in-chief.
