"The release was delayed and sales remained unabated. The sales of "Weekly Boy" in major bookstores have been successful!"

"Detective Conan" launches a new role, and the protagonist's myth has been shattered and has caused many dissatisfaction!"

"Gorgeous and superb, shocking. He Xi showed his sharpness and swears to fight "Detective Sherlock" with the most handsome thief!"

Several newspapers were placed on Alice's desk. If Alice didn't read the content, she realized that Meng Huo had succeeded.

The impact of delayed release is far lower than the sensation brought by this issue of "Detective Conan". The entire Ninghai City has set off a rush to buy, and some booksellers even sold at private prices, but all sold within one day.

The editors of the editorial department congratulated Alice enviously, and even Sun Yang asked her to hand over a letter from Mr. Tomato.

The letter is not encrypted, and Alice can also see the content. Teacher Tomato praised the new plot of "Detective Conan" and said that she was a new fan of Mr. He Xi, hoping that he could defeat "Detective Sherlock".

Who is Mr. Pomodoro?

When Alice took over Meng Huo, she heard Ye Xiong mention this old cartoonist. It is said that he has a great prejudice against Meng Huo. Ye Xiong asked Alice to be careful not to affect Meng Huo. However, it took so long that Teacher Tomato actually became a fan of Meng Huo!

Meng Huo is using comics to gain recognition from others, which makes Alice feel full of pride.

But just when the entire editorial department was excited, the editor-in-chief Ye Xiong sat on the desk and was frowning.

"Editor-in-chief, are you not satisfied with the sales of this issue?"

Alice asked strangely.

"No, sales are fine." Ye Xiong shook his head and looked up and said, "I'm just thinking about whether Teacher He Xi's role is suitable for Teacher Kidd. His charm is too great and it is easy to steal the protagonist's limelight."

He originally wanted to say about Meng Huo, but then changed his words. Now the editorial department uses a pseudonym to call Meng Huo, which can prevent the risk of leaks.

"I don't think I have to worry about this."

Alice smiled and said, "I talked to Teacher He Xi. He did not intend to put Kidd in the main line. Kidd's positioning is a special character that occasionally appears. His greatest charm is mystery. Teacher He Xi will not destroy this mystery."

Keeping mysterious and creating a special beauty, Kidd, the original novel, is such a character. He is elusive and has an unattainable and carefree manner. Readers don’t know who he looks like and where he comes from, so they will look forward to his gorgeous appearance again.

Simply put, Kidd has little influence on "Detective Conan", but it will have a great impact on readers.

"If the editor is worried, I will go to get the original manuscripts of Teacher He Xi's home to get the collection, and then you will be able to see Kid's position." Alice continued to add.

Ye Xiong nodded: "It's good."

"By the way, please help me remind Teacher He Xi about something."

...

"Don't draw it too beautiful?"

At noon, Meng Huo received a message from Alice and couldn't help but wonder if Ye Xiong's head was funny.

Other cartoonists want to paint their works better, but Ye Xiong is better, but he wants Meng Huo not to paint them too beautifully!

"This sentence is not what you think."

Alice smiled bitterly and quickly explained that Ye Xiong meant to keep Meng Huo's usual comic fragments and no longer had to draw comic pictures that exceeded the specifications, which was the last picture of the first episode, the promotional poster and this time the monster thief Kidd.

"Why!"

Meng Huo was a little unhappy: "I finally drew those pictures. Isn't it good?"

He felt that his efforts were denied.

"Not bad, it's too good."

Alice shook her head, and she took out several reports from her shoulder bag and spread them on the table: "Look, this is part of the results of a few months of readers' investigation."

Meng Huo picked up the report curiously, while Alice continued.

"In the investigation results of how readers fall in love with "Detective Conan", we found a very strange thing. More than 50% of readers are attracted by the picture in the first episode."

"They saw that picture from magazines, the Internet, and friends, so they became interested in buying magazines. It is undeniable that "Detective Conan" is of high quality to retain them, but without that picture, the reader base of this comic will be greatly reduced at the beginning, and it may take a long time to accumulate before it becomes popular."

"Are you saying it too exaggerated?"

"No, original comics are more popular than you think."

Alice's expression was faint. If a market was bleak, then even if high-quality works appeared, it would take time to settle down and ferment. This rule was broken by Meng Huo.

"Not only that, we investigated your poster and the results were surprising. Many people who have not read "Detective Conan" intend to buy a single book because the poster is so beautiful that they are willing to spend money to collect it."

"And the Weekly Boy released yesterday, you showed that talent for the third time."

Alice paused, with a smile on her lips: "Guess what happened?"

"What?"

"Three hours." Alice stretched out three fingers and smiled: "We printed more than 300,000 copies in advance, but in just three hours, all the inventory in Ninghai City was sold out in one week."

"Tell you one thing, no matter how popular the magazines are, the publishers and bookstore owners will leave some for sale in the next few days, so you can block the door of "Weekly Boy" early the next morning and you still have a chance to buy them."

However, this time when the monster Kidd came out, the whole of Ninghai was in full bloom. The senior readers would rather spend more money than force the bookstore to stock. The bookstore owners secretly sold the magazines at a high price and are now putting pressure on the publishing house to print them.

The reason is of course because of the charm of the monster thief Kidd, but how does the charm of the monster thief Kidd come out?

Mysterious and gorgeous, none of this is the root of it. The root of it should be the stunning picture on the cover. That picture shaped the readers' first impression of Kidd's monster. Only after the plot is perfected can this impression fully show Kidd's charm.

“…”

Meng Huo finished reading the report and thought for a while.

"No! As you said, this is a good thing, why don't you let me draw it?"

"The editor-in-chief's meaning is not to keep you from drawing, but to make careful choices." Alice smiled and said, "We are worried that readers will get used to it if they read too much. You can't spoil them. The fewer pictures, the better. As long as they can appear at critical moments, it's fine."

"You want to turn it into something like a magic weapon."

After she explained this, Meng Huo finally understood. However, the original inspiration rarely appeared in a flash, and even if he wanted to draw more, he couldn't do anything.

What are Ye Xiongbai worried about? Is the most important thing now not a single book?
