When the popularity votes for Rurouni Kenshin's Memories came out this week, Cuttlefish and even the entire Los Angeles comics industry no longer knew how to evaluate this work.

Although the news that Shui Xin is a male boy has not completely spread, people in the comics industry in Luo Province are generally well informed.

These elements are very eye-catching for newcomers, cartoonists, and high school students.

When everyone has already recognized that the boy whose pen name is Shui Xin and whose real name is Chu Yu is a rare genius in the comics industry in Luozhou Province for decades.

Shui Xin once again taught the comics industry in Los Angeles a lesson.

The number of votes cast was more than 60,000. This is not only a record for the number of votes cast by Cuttlefish. Looking at the entire Los Angeles province, this is also a peak.

In the entire Luo Province comics industry, more and more people have begun to refer to Shui Xin as the number one cartoonist in Luo Province.

This weekend, the entire Dragon Kingdom is immersed in joy. After all, New Year's Eve falls on Sunday.

Compared with the liveliness of the city on Saturday, Mingcheng on Sunday seemed a bit deserted and lonely.

Basically everyone is staying behind closed doors and staying at home with their families.

Although he was just at home alone, Chu Yu still cooked a New Year's Eve dinner by himself. After offering incense to his parents, Chu Yu himself felt quite content.

On Weixin, both Zhao Qinyin and Su Wei sent him blessings.

Cuiyu’s New Year condolence messages were also sent, and even some comic writers who exchanged mobile phone numbers at Cuiyu’s annual meeting also sent blessing messages.

It's almost as if I have really become a member of society.

Compared with Chu Yu's status as a high school student, the current profession of cartoonist undoubtedly has a greater impact on his life.

At Zhao Qinyin's home, after having the New Year's Eve dinner with her grandma, she turned on the TV and watched the Spring Festival Gala with her grandma.

Although he felt that this program was becoming more and more boring every year, and it was not even as interesting as drawing the original comics at Chu Yu's house, Zhao Qinyin still smiled and agreed with her grandma and chatted with her all night.

Unlike Chu Yu and Zhao Qinyin, who were alone and dependent on their grandmother, they were in Wang County, another county more than a hundred kilometers away from Mingcheng.

Su Yu and his family gathered together.

Her parents, eldest uncle, second uncle, third aunt to seventh uncle, as well as aunts and uncles, their children, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, her nieces and nephews, and even nieces and nephews, there are about forty people in total.

There were almost five tables full of people, centered on Su Yu's grandfather.

"Xiaolu, why are you coming back to celebrate the New Year again this year!"

"Where's the boyfriend?" Su's grandfather asked first.

"Where did she get her boyfriend? She said last year that she would bring him home this year. Look at this."

"I'm not talking about you, Xiaoyi. Three months ago, I asked you to go home for a blind date. The conditions in the Sun family are very good. After seeing your photo, they still miss you. Why don't you come back? I see

In this way, just in time for the Chinese New Year, I will make an appointment with you the day after tomorrow. If it goes through, you won't have to go to Mingcheng to be a comic editor. You are so old and you are still dealing with those children's things.

not open"

here we go.

Su Yu's relaxed expression suddenly collapsed.

It’s like this every year, can’t you guys just calm down a little bit?

Everyone has their own feelings about this year. When twelve o'clock comes at night, a new day and a new year have arrived.

The Dragon Star Award selection official website was created by the Seven Major Magic City to select the Dragon Star Award.

Quietly, one hundred and sixty-seven comics were released.

On this New Year's Eve night, even Chu Yu, Su Yu, and Zhao Qinyin were almost asleep at this time.

After all, the selection of the Dragon Star Awards lasts for six full weeks. If you really want to pay attention, there is no need to watch the website all night long.

But there are always exceptions to everything. Just like most people like to watch the Spring Festival Gala with the whole family during the Chinese New Year, but there are also many people who like to stay in their room alone and play games.

As for Dragon Kingdom comics fans, this evening, compared to the Chinese New Year, the start of the Dragon Star Awards selection is equally exciting for them.

The selection of such an award is not only a grand event for cartoonists, but also a grand gathering for them comic fans.

In the eyes of many comic fans, it is already the year of "0202" and the Internet has become so popular, but the comics industry does not seem to be connected with the Internet.

Each province has its own comic companies and sales channels.

It's normal for comic fans in neighboring provinces to not understand each other's popular comics.

Logically speaking, under such circumstances, online publishing should be a channel through which a comic company can expand the influence of its excellent comics.

But the imagination is full and the reality is skinny. Comic companies that try this often not only fail to attract the attention of comics fans in other provinces, but on the contrary, buyers of periodicals in their own provinces do not buy physical periodicals because of the online publication.

They all went to read the online serialization, which caused a huge drop in sales of comic periodicals and a sharp drop in the revenue of the comics agency.

With examples of previous failures, subsequent comic companies have a tacit understanding to only focus on physical journals.

This has also led to the current situation in the Dragon Kingdom comics industry.

It is precisely because of this that the comic recommendation section of Xinman.com has a certain degree of popularity. Although not all the netizens there want to see pirated posts, but you comics companies have no future and let the original works be distributed to other provinces, so you can't blame others.

Go home and watch pirated versions online.

Although those works are often blocked just by looking at them

The selection of the Dragon Star Award just satisfies the needs of Dragon Kingdom comics fans who want to know what comics from other provinces are like.

They are genuine, and they are basically the top comics in each province. The viewing experience is undoubtedly much better than the pirated ones on Xinman.com, and you can also complain and leave comments when reading comics in real time on the website.

Therefore, every year, when the Dragon Star Award selection begins, the traffic flow of the official selection website will reach a terrifying value during the Chinese New Year period.

At two o'clock in the morning, the official website of the Dragon Star Awards updated these comics two hours later.

After entering the official website of the Dragon Star Award at 1 p.m., Li Xing saw the ranking of each comic.

The ranking list of comics participating in the Dragon Star Awards is calculated based on the number of paid readers of the comic.

The first-ranked work is none other than Qin Province's popular masterpiece, Blazing Feathers. I only logged in to this website for two hours.

Regarding the work information, after reading the free first three chapters of the comic, the number of people who paid to read the subsequent comic chapters has exceeded 90,000. Even every time he refreshes the interface, Li Xing will find that the number of people paying for the work has increased rapidly.

The second-ranked work is still the popular comic work in Qin Province, Battle Spirit, with the number of paying people just exceeding 80,000.

The third-ranked work is Qin Sheng’s popular work, The Secret of My Teacher and Me, with more than 60,000 paid readers.

Further on, the fourth to seventh are all well-known comic works in Qin Province.

But the eighth-ranked work is a work from Su Province, Summer Dream.

Although it is only a temporary situation, isn't it Qin Sheng's work that ranks eighth?
Chapter completed!
