Chapter 150
Of course, the comic project can be completed mainly because there are no competitors.
After all, it costs five cents to read a comic, and it takes less than a few minutes to read it.
Such an expensive price, no matter how you think, will not be a good business.
In fact, it's not a good business.
If it weren't for the large number of high-quality web articles held in the hands of the starting point, these web articles have a loyal audience.
In the webtoon business, there is only one possibility of violent death.
In the case of the three original works on the website, their numbers are significantly lower than those of other adaptations.
Relying on the user's payment alone, even the manuscript fee sent to the cartoonist cannot be recovered.
After Wu Wenhui exhaled deeply, he slowly said:
"Jiang Dong, the layout of the comics is very smooth, not only the website is profitable.
We also completed the preliminary preparation of comic magazines, acquiring 6 small comic magazines and one medium and large magazine.
Basically, the layout of the magazine on the channel has been completed, and I dare not say it nationwide.
But in the Yangtze River Delta, it is absolutely guaranteed that our comic magazines will appear at the door of any primary and secondary school. "
The audience of comics is actually very clear, and the main audience in China is only primary and secondary school students.
Therefore, after deciding on the layout of the comics, the first thing to do is to complete the layout of the channels in primary and secondary schools.
It's just that the magazine industry is a completely unfamiliar industry for Wu Wenhui.
In order to get in quickly, there is only one option.
But
fortunately, the comic market is in a downturn today, even if the size of these magazines is actually not small, but the sales of comics are difficult to say.
It was the highest-selling magazine in Sioux Province, with monthly sales of just over 20,000.
With such sluggish sales, the owners of these magazines have long had the idea of running away.
Now that someone has finally taken over, the owners of those magazines agreed to Wu Wenhui's acquisition invitation very easily.
And the price is not expensive, the cheapest one is more than 600,000, and the most expensive one is only more than 3 million.
The cumulative cost of less than 10 million yuan to acquire these 6 comic magazines can basically be said to control the channels of the entire Yangtze River Delta region.
However, the comic business of reading the sky is naturally impossible to stop at the Yangtze River Delta region.
The national market is also to be looked forward to.
Although he has the opportunity to enter the national market in the future, Wu Wenhui has invested a lot of money.
It spent more than 30 million yuan to acquire a magazine specializing in entertainment content.
Although the sales of this magazine are also not good, fortunately, the construction of channels is still very perfect.
Although it is not like Wu Wenhui's layout in the Yangtze River Delta region, it can be directly reached at the entrance of primary and secondary schools.
But it is still possible to put the magazine in cities across the country.
However, the layout of the channel is only the first step.
If the comic magazine business wants to make a profit, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve it overnight.
After listening to Wu Wenhui's introduction, Jiang He nodded and asked with a smile:
"Listen to you say so, then the first volume
of "Comic World" can already be released?" The name of the comic project has been hesitating for a long time, and Jiang He clapped and decided on the name of "Comic World".
In the domestic comic industry in the previous life, the most successful was naturally "Soulmate Manga".
It's just that Zhiyin is a state-owned enterprise, and the sales volume of the magazine business in his hand is not low.
Even if you have an idea, it's hard to buy.
Most importantly, the current soulmate has not yet begun to lay out the comic business.
You must know that Zhiyin only launched the monthly magazine of Zhiyin Manga in 2006, and it was only in 2009 that the weekly magazine of Zhiyin Manga was really launched.
Even if the other party is willing to sell, Yuetian can't buy it here.
When Wu Wenhui heard this, he also nodded with a smile and said, "
The first issue of 100,000 copies has been ordered by the local printing house in Feicheng, and it is expected to start distribution in two days. In
order to lay out the channel, Wu Wenhui tossed for most of the year.
The acquisition of various magazines and the establishment of channels are all run by him personally.
All kinds of overtime, now I finally got everything done before the students went on winter vacation.
Otherwise, the release of "Comic World" will be delayed until next year.
In order to ensure the sales of the first issue, although the first issue of "Comic World" was directly set at a price of 5 yuan, the amount of content was amazing.
Although only six manga have been serialized in magazines, each of them is directly 5 episodes, which is a total of 30 episodes.
The total number of pages alone has come to more than 80 pages.
It is guaranteed to make the purchasing user look good in one breath.
And the works serialized in the first issue are the most popular ones on the website.
They are "The Immortal", "The Legend of the Creep", "Ascending Dragon Road", "Monster World: Hunter", and "Journey of the Flutter".
Needless to say, these five novels are needless to say, except that "Monster World: Hunter" relies on the popularity of the game and has additional blessings.
The other four books have won the love of a large number of readers by relying on the quality of their content.
All of them are well-deserved masterpieces.
Wu Wenhui dared to print 100,000 copies directly as soon as he came up, precisely because of the quality of these works.
And finally there is an original comic called "Nerve List".
This is a new work made by Chen Xiang, the author of the painting "Monster World: Hunter", and his two friends.
Although the paid data on the website is not good, it is still very good in terms of readers' word of mouth.
As a new magazine, the works on Comic World naturally cannot all be adaptations.
"Nerve List", as the best original comic on the website, won the opportunity to be serialized in magazines.
The current comic book world has been burning money.
Although the website has opened up the submission of original works, there is also a special support plan.
However, unlike the model of adaptation of popular novels, original works do not have direct manuscript fees, only early traffic support.
The only way to make money is to sell it after it is on the shelf.
And the first three months, update four episodes per month, there will be 600 attendance awards.
Basically, it is not much different from the mode of web literature.
But for comic book authors, the gap is too big.
If it is a drawing adaptation of a comic, even if it is the lowest manuscript fee, one drawing can have more than 500 yuan.
For them, there is no pressure to draw four episodes a month, and 2,000 pieces are easily obtained.
And the original painting, the only income is only the 600 yuan of Quan Attendance.
Don't talk about the revenue from the shelves, the original comics on the site, no readers will subscribe at all.
Once the three-month beginner period is over, there is basically no income.
On the one hand, it is easy to earn a few thousand yuan, and on the other hand, it is worried about this hundreds of dollars.
Even if this group of cartoonists still have dreams in their hearts, they know how to choose.
At present, the original works on the website are basically popular manga artists who have made money, and they are made with a few friends, which can be regarded as pursuing their dreams.
