Chapter 137 Comic Magazine Total Sales Ranking

Zhao Chen had just returned to the World Club, and a staff member reported some recent events.

Among them, large newspapers publish annual sales rankings of island comic magazines every year. "Youth SORA" under the World Series has entered the list. Although it ranks at the bottom ten, it is undoubtedly a heart-warming agent. Just because "Youth SORA" has been sold for more than half a year, it can be entered into this list, which shows its strength and potential it represents.

As for the top, the first place is undoubtedly "JUMP" under Shueisha, the second place is "JUMP" under the Primary School Library, the third place is Kodansha's "Weekly Young Magazine", and then the Hakuensuan Girls' Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Hakuen Club's Ha

From this ranking, we can also see that the current comics industry in the island country is basically monopolized by the four comic giants. The top nine are all comic magazines under the four comic giants. It is quite good that the "Young SORA" of the World Club can rank 10th. After all, even the comic magazines under the large comic clubs have not entered this ranking.

However, although it has entered the top ten, the sales gap between them is quite large. The first-place "JUMP" has an average sales of more than three million in each issue, the second-place is close to three million, the third-place average sales of each issue directly dropped to more than one million, and the next one is between 500,000 and one million. It can be seen that the first two dominate the comic magazines.

As soon as the total sales ranking of comic magazines was released in this year, the world club can be said to have a great reputation in the industry and its attractiveness to cartoonists and industry staff has increased significantly.

Not only that, at the end of the year, the top ten total sales of comics in the year were also counted. Among them, "Rebellious Lelouch" ranked sixth, which is the reason why only two volumes of single-volume versions were released, otherwise the ranking was likely to reach the top three. As for the ones ahead of "Rebellious Lelouch", they were classic comics such as "Firebird", "Doraemon", "Oolong Police Station". And those behind "Rebellious Lelouch" were also listed.

However, except for "The Rebellious Lelouch" that only released two volumes of single-line versions, other comics basically have three to four single-line versions. Therefore, "The Rebellious Lelouch" ranked only sixth. If "The Rebellious Lelouch" releases one single-line version, it is likely to enter the top three.

In addition, although Zhao Chen's other works are not listed, the total sales volume of "Football Young Players" also exceeds one million. If there is still a ranking later, it will be enough to rank in the top 20 of the year.

"The Rebellious Lelouch" ranked sixth, which gave Zhao Chen a greater reputation. It was only two volumes of single-line books that could be ranked sixth, and both industry insiders and comic fans would be quite surprised after seeing it. This is also a factor that has allowed Zhao Chen's status in the comics industry in the island country to be improved accordingly. Because according to this form, as long as "The Rebellious Lelouch" continues to be serialized for a few years, Zhao Chen may be able to establish the status of a comic master.

Unfortunately, only Zhao Chen knew in his heart that "The Rebellious Lelouch" would be completed for another half a year. He could have poured water into it. He turned this comic into a smelly and long-lasting like an old woman's foot binding. Unfortunately, Zhao Chen had many classic comics in his head, and he didn't want "The Rebellious Lelouch" to be destroyed in his own hands, so he planned to follow the original work.

But even so, by the end of "The Rebellious Lelouch", Zhao Chen will be able to become a well-known cartoonist in the island country in one fell swoop. What he lacks is the background in this area.

Not only these two news, but another news surprised Zhao Chen. It turned out that his works were shortlisted for the Primary School Museum comics, and it was not one, but a whole three. They were shortlisted for the Young People's Department "The Rebellious Lelouch", shortlisted for the Young People's Department "Sailor Moon" and shortlisted for the General Department "Baseball Heroes"!

Currently, there are only three departments in the Primary School Pavilion comics, among which the teenagers are the teenagers' comics with the main targets of national high schools; the teenagers' comics with the main targets of national high schools; the general department is the work with the main targets of young people or adults.

This session is the 26th Primary School Hall Comics Awards, and the fourth department will be established until the 27th session next year - the Children's Department!

The Primary School Pavilion comic appreciation has been established in the 30th year of Showa (1955) to the present. It is the oldest comic appreciation in the island country. It has gradually established an authoritative position and has always been an annual event in the island country's comic industry, with a bounty of 1 million yen.

The works that are enrolled must be published in the island country. After January 1, each year, comic works published in magazines, single books or news, will be eligible to participate. The list of awards for each award will be announced in February of the following year. However, because it is held by the Primary School Pavilion, the probability of winning the comic works belonging to the Primary School Pavilion will undoubtedly increase a little.

"It's weird, what does this primary school museum mean? My three works can be shortlisted for three departments at the same time! Is the final result just a happy event? The organizer shouldn't be so stupid, otherwise the organizer's authority will inevitably be hit! I really don't understand their ideas. Forget it, soldiers come to block the water and soil and cover it up!"

Zhao Chen was upset. He really didn't understand the meaning of the primary school library. You should know that since the Tianxia Society dug up Anda Chong, the two have been quite inconsistent. The primary school library would not be so stupid that it would present an award to Zhao Chen, otherwise it would increase Zhao Chen's popularity and increase the sales of award-winning works.

"By the way, Anda Chong! It seems that the purpose of the fight is to be the one who is fighting. Humph, I want to disagree!"

When thinking of Anda Chong, Zhao Chen suddenly looked at the shortlisted works and author names again. "Baseball Heroes" only wrote Zhao Chen's name, but there was no Anda Chong's name. This undoubtedly made Zhao Chen feel that he had noticed the purpose of the primary school museum.

The Primary School Pavilion comic appreciation only started in February, and there is still more than half a month left before the lottery draw, and there is still plenty of time.

During this period, the World Club began to acquire publishing houses in France, Italy, and established comics branches in Slovakia and the United Kingdom.

How can the actions of the World Society escape the sight of the four comic giants? Especially the four comic giants can be said to be quite wary of the World Society at this time, and naturally pay attention to the every move of the World Society.

However, after knowing this, the reactions of the four major comic giants were different. Among them, Kotanshe and Baiquanshe, which have not yet gained a foothold in the European market, looked at it from a joke perspective. They knew very well the difficulty of entering the European market and believed that the plan of Tianxiashe was too negligent. However, Shueisha and Primary School Pavilion, which have already gained a foothold in the European comic market, have another idea, that is, to block and not allow Tianxiashe to successfully enter the European comic market, even if the probability is not high in their opinion. However, the mentality of not being afraid of ten thousand is still that the two major comic giants have prepared themselves and used their connections to develop in Europe to attack them, even if the cost is relatively high.

Kotanshe and Baiquanshe do not have this intention, but instead have a mentality of watching the show. In fact, their psychology is complicated. The reason why they have been unable to enter the European market for a long time. Shueisha and Primary School Pavilion undoubtedly made considerable "contributions" in it!

Due to Europe's prosperity and population base, no matter which comics giant is, it cannot be ignored. If it is successfully entered into the European market, its magazines, single-line books and surrounding sales will undoubtedly increase significantly, and this increase will also increase rapidly with the entry of European countries. Therefore, although Kotanshe and Baiquanhe are also afraid of Tianxiahe, they still hope that Tianxiahe can successfully enter the European market. At that time, Tianxiahe will attract the attention of Primary School Pavilion and Shueisha. They will be able to enter the European comic market more easily.

When the World Club just established branches in four major European countries, Shuei Shu and Primary School Pavilion naturally spared no effort to suppress them, which directly led to the Italian branch still being born, and the progress of the Czechoslovak branch was also in a difficult state.

Fortunately, Zhao Chen and Platini had a win-win plan at that time, otherwise the consequences might be unimaginable if they only sponsored Platini. At the critical moment, Platini's energy in France was finally revealed. Platini, as an iconic figure in French football, has an important position in France. Platini, who is also extremely smart, is also very good at expanding his connections. In addition, active publicity has led to the world club being able to gradually stabilize in France.

As for the UK, Master Arthur's status in the UK determined his ability and deep connections. Shueisha and Primary School Pavilion could not be shaken at all, resulting in a failure!

Not only that. Perhaps it was because Master Arthur felt that the opinions given by Zhao Chen were very helpful to him. When he published "2010 Space Odyssey" a few months later, he expressed his gratitude to Zhao Chen next to the first page directory, and promoted the World Club.

When Tianxia Society just entered the European market, more than half a month passed quickly. This day was the day for the Primary School Pavilion Comic Awards.

"Teacher Anda Chong, let's go to the award ceremony together!"

In the president's office, Zhao Chen looked at Anda Chong, who looked tired.

"But the organizer did not invite me!" Anda Chong's thoughts were complicated. He knew that his decision at that time was actually right, which brought him a lot more royalty and fame than before. With the current fame of "Baseball Heroes", if it was released in a single book, it would probably exceed 500,000 or even reach the level of millions.

But Anda Chong was also a little uneasy. He knew that his decision at that time completely offended the Primary School Pavilion, but he didn't expect that his work "Baseball Heroes" would be shortlisted for the Primary School Pavilion comics. But what made him most angry was that his name was not on it.

"Teacher Anda Chong, please don't belittle yourself! Everyone sees your abilities. Although storyboarding is important, the cartoonist who hosts paintings also has an important position. The reason why "Baseball Heroes" was successful is that Teacher Anda Chong's painter actually dominated! Otherwise, it would be impossible to draw a cartoonist at that time. This is why I specifically asked Teacher Anda Chong to draw!"

"As for the organizer not writing your name this time, I think you should understand the reason! Yes, they want to create a gap between you and the World Society, and even more want to create a shadow for you and destroy you by the way!"
