Ever since the 169th issue of the story painting and the two chapters of Doraemon had exploded with a terrifying three-fold increase, as Yin Nan had expected, the popularity of Doraemon continued to rise!
For the 170th issue of the story, the fourth and fifth chapters of Doraemon, the sales of the magazine rose to a terrifying figure of 300,000 copies!
Volume 171, 350,000 copies!
Volume 172, 390,000 copies!
Volume 173, 420,000 copies!
To the astonishment of everyone in the industry, Doraemon's readers were as sticky as leeches. The sales of each issue maintained an increase of at least 30,000 copies, and its popularity on the Internet did not decrease at all. Even though the original sales of the story painting was not bad, it was not considered popular compared to some mainstream magazines. It jumped to almost 500,000 in the ranks of the 'best-selling magazine'!
Especially as the story developed, Doraemon's own values and the variety of content were clearly displayed!
The world full of fantasy and positive energy and the dazzling array of fantastical props were also loved by its most loyal audience, which was the children and their parents!
As a reference, more than one parent recently said that their mischievous children had changed A little after watching Doraemon, and the estrangement between them had gradually disappeared because of this new manga!
However, even though everything seemed to be developing in a good direction…
The rise of anything would definitely touch the sensitive nerves of others!
"Trash!"
In a beautiful building in the central district of the Central Capital City, a middle-aged man with a calm expression was angrily smashing a " Story Painting " book on the table. At the same time, he was angrily reprimanding his subordinate!
His name was Luo Dao, and he was the president of the largest publishing firm in Central Capital City, Central Capital Press!
To put it more accurately, Central Capital Press was one of the largest publishing houses in China, and it was the leader of the entire publishing industry!
"How could such a childish comic book steal our market share? You idiots and those idiotic authors are all freeloaders!”
The reason why Luo Dao was angry at this time was not because of anything else. It was because of the recent share plunder from Doraemon.
And with the recent explosive increase in sales of the story paintings, their publishing firm's market share in the two aspects of essays and children's books had suffered a staggering decline. Now, it had already reached the point where even the president had no choice but to fly into a rage!
“...”
The subordinate who was reprimanded by him naturally knew the reason. Even his son, who was in elementary school, was obsessed with Doraemon. Even he himself was quite interested in reading this so-called comic book. In comparison, he knew that the magazine standards of his own publishing company could not compare.
To put it simply, the intensity of Doraemon was too abnormal, and it had nothing to do with them.
However, now that the president was standing right in front of him, he did not dare to say such a thing. Therefore, he only lowered his head and did not say a word.
"Humph!"
When Luo Dao saw his subordinate's behavior, he snorted coldly and narrowed his eyes.
It was true that the magazine market and the children's book market did not account for a large portion of the Zhongdu publishing firm's market share. However, as a person who had built a magazine firm from scratch in his thirties, Luo Dao knew that Hui Shi publishing firm's current performance was extremely dangerous!
This was a phenomenal work of a brand new genre, and the creator, NAN, was a newcomer author whose background was unknown but whose drawing skills were shocking. This undoubtedly meant that if this continued, and NAN's next work could maintain this standard, he would undoubtedly be able to stand firm and become an ace author, and Huishi could undoubtedly use this NAN to take another step forward!
For Zhongdu's publishing firm, this was unacceptable. The competition in the magazine industry was extremely fierce, because most people would not buy the same type of magazine after buying it. If a certain type of book was monopolized by a small publishing firm, then the biggest loss would be for the big publishing firm!
So...
"Inform the fishing vessel management department to start working.”
“... Yes."
After hearing Luo Dao's decision, the subordinate who had always been submissive was stunned. Then, he nodded hesitantly.
The Fishing Vessel Management Department was not a very prominent department of Zhongdu Press. In fact, almost any large publishing house had a similar department.
And the function of this department was the so-called " Internet Water Army "!
When a new work was released, they would create momentum for themselves. When the quality of the new work was not high, they would drive the pace. When the quality of the new work was high, they would suddenly praise it. They would even discredit the works of other publishing firms that they did not want to see when they made a name for themselves. This was the job of this department!
As the industry leader, the Fishing Vessel Management Department of Zhongdu Press was even more outstanding in the industry. They were extremely familiar with the methods of smearing other works. Small and medium-sized publishing houses like Huishi Press, who did not even have their own online channels, had no chance to resist!
The meaning behind Luo Dao's words was also very clear. He did not want to see Doraemon's popularity and positive ratings continue to rise on the Internet. He wanted to pour a bucket of cold water on it!
'Sigh…It was a pity that such a good work was lost. Hopefully, it could withstand the pressure and not be directly cut in half.'
Although he didn't hate this work, the club member could only sigh and leave the president's office.
As expected, a post appeared on Hu Kong's homepage the next day.
