A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village

Chapter 290: It's fried, it's fried!

   Readers did not drop, but some places demanded to increase the number of newspapers. What the hell?

   Not only Kudo, but other people are also confused.

   Especially Chiba Yi, she originally planned to criticize the "Spirited Away" manga today, but found that there were only a few complaint letters. The number of readers' subscriptions has not decreased but increased!

   After more than an hour, the sales statistics for this issue finally came out, and it actually increased by 2% compared to yesterday!

   "Nani, today's sales have increased by 2% compared to yesterday?" Kudo smacked his lips in shock. Don't underestimate 2%, this is a huge weight. It's not bad to fluctuate 2% in just one day.

   Originally, he thought that since the first issue of the comic went up yesterday, the second issue of the comic will definitely make many people dislike it and cause a loss of subscriptions. He initially estimated that it would also lose about 4% to 5% of the share. But now it seems that instead of a loss, it has increased by 2%!

   "What is the reason for this? Could it be that our other forums are doing better in the period?" Kudo said to himself in confusion. He doesn't take the increase in share as a credit for the comics at all. Don't be kidding, it's good that the comics don't drive away readers, and you want to bring him a lot of readers?

   "Master President, I think so!" Chiba Yi agreed.

   "Well, it seems that the news section has made a lot of credit. You must continue to work hard. If you get better results at the end of this month, I will immediately give you bonuses." Kudo encouraged.

   The backbones of those several news sections were all red-faced after hearing this.

   "By the way, the extra 2% increase will immediately ask the printing house to print more!" Kudo instructed several of his subordinates.

   "Yes, President."

   On this day, Minami Shuuichi did not bring Miyamoto Yuko and Iloti to the newspaper office to ask about the situation. Anyway, in just a day or two, there was no major movement. He decided to come back in a week. Now this week, he is planning to travel all over Tokyo with two girls, and play all over Tokyo.

   The day passed quickly.

   Originally, the Tokyo Metropolitan Evening Post had a lot of readers. It ranks among the top three among many newspapers in Tokyo. It has a large number of readers and covers several surrounding cities.

   Therefore, the publication of "Spirited Away" in this newspaper can be said to have received strong exposure!

   At first, many people thought that the serialization of such naive children's books in newspapers was not good for all kinds of complaints, but when they read "Spirited Away", they couldn't say anything. No bad words, no complaints, everyone is hooked on "Spirited Away".

   But most of the readers are teenagers, teenagers and young people. There are even some children's readers. There are also a small number of middle-aged people. Anyway, teenagers and young people accounted for the majority.

   Day 3!

   Tokyo Metropolitan Evening Newspaper.

   "Nani! The major newspapers stopped today, and the outlets indicated that many people bought our newspapers? Much more than usual?"

   "Today, many sub-sale points still have to stop requesting to increase the printing volume?"

   "4% increase?"

"Oh my God!"

  In the conference room, Kudo was shocked when he heard the report, and the others were also surprised.

   At this time, Kudo and other senior executives did not know what caused their newspaper sales to increase for two consecutive days. Anyway, it is incomprehensible.

   "President, there are more than a dozen letters from readers today."

   "Speak." Kudo said lightly, their newspaper office has dozens of letters from hundreds of readers every day, which is normal.

"These dozens of letters from readers said that our entertainment section has been replaced by a comic section, which is a very good revision. He said that "Spirited Away" is very good-looking, and he is looking forward to the next "Spirited Away"! He also hopes Our newspaper can update more, too little is not enough to read.”

   After the employee in charge of the information feedback finished speaking, everyone was stunned.

   "Haha... My God, someone wrote a letter praising the beauty of a children's book like "Spirited Away"? It's really weird. How old is the reader of this letter?" Chiba Yi was amused.

   "I don't know." The employee shook his head.

"I didn't expect that one of the dozen or so letters praised the comics. That person is really naive. Look at the remaining dozen or so letters, they should all say that the news section has done a good job in the past few days, hurry up and read it. Let's see what the other party said we did better." Chiba Yi asked eagerly.

"Uh, these dozen or so letters are all about the comic "Spirited Away". They all said that this comic is very good-looking, and they are looking forward to the next few issues. They also asked us how long this comic will be serialized? How much is the total divided? Period? Will there be such good-looking comics in the future?"

   After the employee finished speaking, Chiba Yi's smile froze on the spot, "Nani!?"

   "So this "Spirited Away" manga is very popular with readers?"

   "I think so."

   "The newspaper came to me to read. Speaking of which, I thought it was a children's book and I never read it."

   "I'll give you an analysis."

   Soon, several people took the newspaper and started to read it. After they read it, they all fell in love with "Spirited Away".

   "This is not a children's book at all, the plot is better than watching a TV series! It is full of novelty and innovation, and the style of painting is also very novel..."

   "How is that possible?" Chiba Yi also picked up a copy and looked at it after hearing such praise at the same time. She turned pale after she was completely, because what the other party said was correct, this "Spirited Away" is really beautiful. Although she didn't want to admit it in her heart, they were really nice. This is the best cartoon she's ever seen, and it's no worse than watching a movie.

   "So the reason for our increase in subscriptions is because of this "Spirited Away"?" Kudo said in a deep voice.

   "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. At first we thought this comic would drag us down, but now we didn't expect it to surprise us!"

  …

   The following week saw a manga boom in Tokyo and even the surrounding cities. Countless teenagers are rushing to buy newspapers to keep up with updates.

   This phenomenon surprised many parents.

  The number of subscriptions on the fourth day increased to 15% than usual

   The number of subscriptions on the seventh day has increased to more than 30% compared to storytelling

  This week has passed, it should be said that seven days have passed.

  Tokyo Metropolitan Evening Newspaper has received numerous letters from readers, most of them said that the comics are very good-looking and asked for more! At the same time, some people in the comics industry came to the door and wanted the contact information of Miyamoto Yuko. Because they feel that "Spirited Away" has already rectified its name for the comics industry!

   is because it set off an innovation, innovation and epoch-making creation of comics. Many manga artists now call Miyamoto Tamiko the manga newcomer king!

   Not only that, but many cartoonists are scrambling to learn this innovative flow, plot flow, and light cartoon style!

   It can be said that Miyamoto Tamiko has created a new era of manga!

"I can't believe that in just one week, our newspaper's newspaper sales have increased by one-third compared to usual. Now it has become the number one selling newspaper among many newspapers in Tokyo! The reason why we got this throne is to put the previous hegemony. The Tokyo Daily kicked off because of this "Spirited Away"!" Kudo said with a blushing face. At this time, he was excited, and then excited.

   It can be said that a comic has greatly increased the strength of Kudo's Tokyo Metropolitan Evening News, and its sales have been huge! He really wanted to thank Miyamoto Yuko and Minano Shuichi for wanting Miss Iloti now. By the way, he decided to ask Chiba Yi to apologize to them again. If it is not for the other party to spend money to serialize. Their newspapers must not know how powerful this comic is.

   If this "Spirited Away" is serialized in other newspapers, then he will lose more than the gains, and he will lose a lot. Fortunately, it is now in their newspaper office. He decided that since the response was so good now, he would give Yuko Miyamoto the royalties for the comics. Although the other party is not short of money, such an action must be done.

"By the way, since "Spirited Away" is so popular right now, then we have to make a first attempt! Immediately push this comic in our news section. By the way, it's better to blow it up. Well, if you can get in touch Tamako Miyamoto had better post her interview again! By the way, this manga definitely belongs to the epoch-making style, um, let's just call her the genius manga girl rookie Wang Miyamoto Yuko!" Kudo said excitedly.

   Now that it is popular, of course, we must continue to push it to make it more popular and get more exposure!

   Anyway, this week has passed, and it's fried, completely fried! There were more than N outlets that had just shipped the newspapers from the printing factory, but all of them were stopped by the major newspapers, and the units were snapped up.

   Anyway, Kudo and others are working overtime every day, constantly printing, and constantly excited! And then there is the shock again!

  …

"Nani? The Tokyo Metropolitan Evening News is sold out? I've gone through ten newspapers and stopped, but none of them. Hey~ I'm chasing "Spirited Away"!" A teenager stood before the newspaper stopped. He muttered bitterly to himself.

  In a certain company, their boss is on a business trip.

   Several employees scrambled to read the Tokyo Metropolitan Evening News, because the company only bought one newspaper, but there were more than a dozen people vying to read it. Especially those girls are completely obsessed with "Spirited Away".

   On the street, a little boy pulled at the corner of his mother's clothes: "Mom, Mom, I want to watch Spirited Away!"

   "What Spirited Away?"

   "It's the manga "Spirited Away"! My classmates said it was beautiful, and I want to see it too."

   "Then let's go buy it."

   "It's not in the bookstore, it's in the newspaper, it's serialized in the newspaper."

  “…”

   At the same time, several other newspapers saw that the Tokyo Metropolitan Evening Reimbursement Road had reached the first place in just over a week, and they were all stunned. Under their research, it was finally because of the comics.

   As a result, many newspapers also followed the reform section and moved comics up, but after a few days, their sales did not increase but decreased! Because the comics they put up are all children's books, will those readers buy it? It would be nice not to kill their editor-in-chief.
