Chapter 974 Continues to Explode!
As early as September 4th, at the beginning of September, it was the second anniversary of the founding of "Qilin Weekly".
According to last year's rules, fans of "Qilin Weekly" started looking forward to it very early this year.
They are all guessing what kind of comics Master Yin Jun will release this year.
Currently, each of the 13 serialized comics in "Kirin Weekly" has enough fans. Even "Chibi Maruko-chan", which was published only one month ago, is also deeply loved by children and junior high school students.
So when Zeng Huaqian, the original artist of "Chibi Maruko-chan", expressed in the latest issue that she would suspend painting and hand over the remaining creative tasks to the team, although many people were reluctant to give up, but more People were excited and happy.
After all, except for the initial period, it was published once a month later, and there were less than 50 issues in two years. Everyone was already impatient to wait.
If it is left to the creative team, relying on Yin Jun's story outline and the previously established style, it is easily certain that there will be no changes, so that everyone can watch more and feel more comfortable.
Of course, many fans still miss this beautiful cartoonist and sent her various letters and postcards to express their blessings to Zeng Huaqian.
If my thoughts hadn't been on Yin Jun, this little beauty who would shed tears while holding a letter while reading it, maybe she would just go back and paint "Chibi Maruko-chan" again.
On its first anniversary last year, three new comics were added, "The First Divine Fist", "City Hunter" and "The Little Master of China". The popularity and love it aroused is obvious to all.
Even though these three comics are not as popular as some of the previous comics, their solid plots and different styles of painting have quickly captured many comics fans who like these categories.
The most outstanding among the three comics is naturally "City Hunter".
As Hojo Tsukasa's super classic masterpieces, Han Yuliang and Xiaoxiang have become popular quickly from the first issue. This ambiguous style of comics is not Yin Jun's previous style, but it is more popular among young people. Like.
Especially young people between the ages of 16 and 26 who are full of fantasies about love are even more fascinated.
Just in August, Han Yuliang deservedly ranked first in the Asia-wide selection of "Kirin Weekly"'s most popular male protagonists. He was actually more popular than elementary school boy Conan and Echizen Ryoma. It was a bit hard to believe. Imagine that young people who can only sigh are really irresistible!
By the way, the most popular heroine is not Laura in "Tomb Raider" or Alice in "Resident Evil", but our sinister Queen Abu! !
It is said that more than 70% of girls and more than 40% of boys voted for Abu, which shows how charming she is.
Originally, "The Hilarious Life in the Tropical Rainforest" was not a very meaningful and far-reaching comic, but Mr. Abu supported the whole comic so hard that comic fans around the world wrote to Qilin Culture, asking for it to be published as soon as possible. Bring "The Hilarious Life of the Tropical Rainforest" to TV.
Because the previous comics have given everyone good expectations and satisfaction, it is not that no one is vaguely worried about the three comics in the second year of this year.
"Qilin Weekly" imitated the complaint section of "Qilin Daily" and also added a 10-page complaint and suggestion section. Once it was launched, it became very lively and very popular.
Many of the letters and comments recently selected by the editor for publication express such concerns.
"Should Mr. Jun take a break? I heard that three more comics will be released this year! Although I like reading "Qilin Weekly" very much and hope to continue to publish new comics, but he is so busy. He has to write a book and also Is it a bit overwhelming to make movies and commercials, manage a company, and create three new comics?"
"Worrying about the quality of three new comics! In fact, that's enough now! No more. We would rather read one new one a year than waste good ideas just to catch up on quantity."
"Although I am from Xiangjiang, I also know that Jun Shao is a genius who writes very quickly, but in the face of these three mysterious new comics, I always feel worried that they will not be good enough and ruin the golden brand of "Qilin Weekly" .”
"Haha, am I the only one who thinks this way? I think Mr. Jun just provides some ideas, and then leaves the rest to the production team. Anyway, the editorial department of "Qilin Weekly" is very powerful!"
"I don't have high expectations, as long as they are no worse than the previous three. I also agree with everyone's opinion. Lord Jun can take a break! We look forward to better works, not more works!"
"..."
In such a gloomy day, the September 4th issue of "Kilin Weekly" is finally here with you.
Different from the previous issue, the opening edition of the third anniversary of "Qilin Weekly" has increased from 12 million copies to 16 million copies, an increase of one-third.
To say that Qilin Culture is quite bold.
The sales volume of a single issue of 12 million copies was already the highest for a comic weekly in the world, but they were not satisfied yet and directly increased it by one-third, reaching the sensational figure of 16 million copies.
However, if analyzed according to the actual situation, the circulation of 16 million copies does not seem to be that overwhelming.
The publication volume of "Qilin Weekly" is 12 million copies, which has been maintained for more than a year.
In the past year or so, with the excellent quality of comics, as well as the support of cartoons and game peripherals, young people have continued to join the ranks of reading "Kilin Weekly".
After the last increase in publication volume, it could be sold out within three days at the beginning. By the beginning of this year, it had become all sold out in one day.
In addition, more newspapers and bookstores, seeing the good sales of "Kilin Weekly", also joined the ranks of distributors, which also caused more diversion, so the time it took for a store to be sold out was even greater. shortened.
The news from Tokuma Bookstore in Japan alone is that they hope to increase the number of copies by 1 million to 7 million this year. Then South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand and other places have also proposed increasing purchases. idea.
If these orders are totaled together, then "Qilin Weekly" will have to print 20 million copies for publication this time.
However, out of caution, the editorial department finally decided to halve the number to only 4 million copies and issue 16 million copies, which would be safer.
Because there will be certain errors in estimates and surveys, in order not to affect the reputation and sales enthusiasm of "Kilin Weekly", it is impossible to publish more weekly magazines. In the end, it has to be withdrawn and destroyed. How embarrassing would that be?
This is the origin of 16 million copies of "Qilin Weekly".
What comics fans are most concerned about is not how many publications you have increased, but whether the three comics you have added are good or not.
"Yu Yu Hakusho", "Fist of the North Star" and "Dragon Ball", how could these three comics not be good?
From the beginning, the three comics have directly and firmly attracted the attention of comic fans with their various styles.
Whether it was the bad boy Yusuke who was killed as soon as he appeared and became a detective in the underworld; or Kenjiro came out of that apocalyptic style; or little Goku triggered a series of hilarious events because of the arrival of Qiqi...these contents , are all novel and full of fantasy, making people unable to stop watching them.
In the second and third issues, as the storyline continued to unfold, it became more and more exciting, and the viewing craze started again.
Starting from the third issue, "Qilin Weekly" has become a hard-to-find product. It will be sold out in less than half a day, and in the fastest place, it will be gone in an hour.
What everyone is talking about every day is either Kenjiro's Big Dipper Fist or Big Dipper XX Fist, "Gather the Dragon Balls and let Shenron appear", or the handsome upgrade event of a ruffian like Yusuke...
As a result, on the comment section of "Kilin Weekly", a large number of people left messages of apology to Yin Jun.
"I'm sorry, Master Jun, I was wrong! You are invincible!"
"I actually used my shallow knowledge to question the genius among geniuses. Now that I have been slapped in the face, I am convinced."
"When I saw the first issue of "Dragon Ball", I felt that I was wrong. Now I know even more that I was terribly wrong. There are indeed geniuses in this world!"
""Yu Yu Hakusho" is great! "Fist of the North Star" is great! "Dragon Ball" is great! I would rather be bombarded by Jun Shao's comics like this every year!"
"My boring days finally have a new bright spot! Mr. Yin Jun is indeed the king of comics, a genius boy! I have been addicted to this comic world! God, please let me never wake up!"
"Master Jun, please continue these three stories and make them as classic as before!"
"..."
How many people repent and apologize, how many people like it crazily.
Those competitors who had been expecting Yin Jun to make a mistake were really disappointed when they saw this.
They never expected that Yin Jun would actually launch so many comic books with the potential to become popular based on his previous peak.
Especially the comic called "Dragon Ball", the grand opening, the novel setting, and the passionate fighting are all amazing.
The future of "Dragon Ball" will definitely have an unlimited future.
They really want to ask Yin Jun, why do you have so many great ideas and comics here? How on earth do you manage to create so many great comics?
How can a comic be so easy to make?
It takes imagination, talent, life experience, knowledge accumulation, etc., to create a great comic.
But Yin Jun has now made a total of 16 comics, all of them are wonderful and all of them are good-looking! !
This...this really makes people feel that God is so unfair!
How could such a monstrous genius be born! ?
