Chapter 94: Resources and Markets

The catwoman brought the coffee and dessert, and Ye Hexu immediately picked up the spoon and scooped out the cream on top of the dessert.

After entering, Ye Hexu narrowed his eyes, his face full of happiness.

"Resources? Is there any difference between it and the market?" Shen Xin asked.

"There is a difference..." Ye Hexu licked the cream sticking to his lips, "The market determines how much your comics can sell. Under the premise of equal promotion, the better the quality, the more marketable the works. The most familiar example you are familiar with is "Y's" and "Shaky". The publicity of the two comics should be about the same. After all, they are both second-rate magazines with limited resources. As a result, the sales of "Y's" far exceed that of "Shaky". new market."

Shen Xin nodded, this point is correct.

"But the resources are different... By the way, the resources I'm talking about are resources that can be used by a comic." Ye Hexu explained while putting the dessert into his belly.

"Promotion?"

With a spoon in his mouth, Ye Hexu shook his head quickly, then took out the spoon in his mouth, and explained: "Of course not—the resource I mentioned refers to the derivatives of comics. Take me as an example, it is estimated that next month, there may be An animation company signed a cooperation agreement with a magazine to start airing animations for three months in July. Second-tier magazines probably don’t have such resources, right?”

The coffee spoon stirred the coffee lightly, but Shen Xin didn't make a sound.

Ye Hexu is right, it is not easy for "New World" to find an animation company willing to purchase the copyright of "Y's" animation within two or three months.

Moreover, even if a company can be found, after the animation is produced, there is still a high probability that it will be broadcast on local stations. Considering the scale factor, it may even be a late-night file. The promotional effect of "Y's" during this time period is not as good as imagined So obvious.

However, the prime-time animation is different. His promotion of the booklet is far beyond the comparison of advertising, and it can greatly attract readers other than fans.

Compared with "Comic Future", the resources that "New World" can use are still too few, whether it is the animation producer or the associated radio stations, they are very limited.

"The prime time for broadcasting animation, coupled with a high-level production company, and a TV station with high ratings, this should be the biggest weight of "Hunting Abyss", right?" Shen Xin asked.

"That's right. Actually, I only need to occupy one of these three conditions." Ye Hexu took a coffee cup with both hands and took a sip.

"Wait, the situation of "Punishment" should be similar to that of "Y's". Analysis, it is not difficult to draw this conclusion.

"Of course not. You don't know that Su Han woman... Although her goal is to let "Punishment" win the 'Newcomer Award', this award is not her only goal. I guessed right, she should want to Sell ​​the film copyright of "Crime and Punishment". Whether it is sold to District 11 or domestically, it can attract enough attention, and then take advantage of the trend to sell animation copyrights, publish "Crime and Punishment" novels, and squeeze out "Crime and Punishment" For all it's worth. Compared to us, she's a serious 'old fritter'."

"Huh... I was wrong."

Hearing Ye Hexu's explanation, Shen Xin looked up and sighed.

"Huh?" Ye Hexu looked at Shen Xin puzzled.

"I thought that the difference between me and you lies in the recognition of readers, but now I find that I and you are not playing the same thing at all." Shen Xin sighed.

"No way. Manga is like a human being. Its future is doomed from birth. There are some things that can't be made up for only by hard work and the quality of the work." Ye Hexu shook his head with a little regret.

"Also... If you didn't tell me this, I might be helpless,

I feel that I will definitely lose, after all, what everyone is playing is not a one-dimensional thing. But since I knew it in advance, I wouldn't sit still. A smile suddenly appeared on Shen Xin's face.

"Can you solve the 'problem'?" Ye Hexu asked in surprise.

"No. In the face of funds and resources, one person's strength is too small. However, as long as there is a 1% chance, I think we can fight, right?" Shen Xin laughed.

When Ye Hexu heard Shen Xin's words, he raised his eyebrows lightly, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and joy was revealed between his brows.

"Haha, Mr. Shen, I really didn't misread you...that's what makes it interesting." Ye Hexu touched the earphones, grinned lightly, showing his white teeth.

"However, I have a question. Why did you tell me this? If you don't say it, wouldn't the advantage be greater?" Shen Xin asked puzzled.

"Aren't I too excited to meet my idol?" Ye Hexu smiled playfully, seeing that Shen Xin didn't believe it, and then explained, "Actually, what I said just now is true. And, do you think, even if I put all these Tell you, can you reverse the advantages and disadvantages between the two comics?"

"I can't." Shen Xin shook her head.

Knowing these contents in advance can only allow him to have some psychological preparations and a rough assessment of the strength of all parties.

If you want to reverse the disadvantage, you still have to think of other ways.

"That's right, even if I say it, you still won't be able to get out of the current predicament, so for me, it won't have a big impact. And..." Ye Hexu stopped talking suddenly, and he squatted on the chair on, "I didn't want to participate in the 'Rookie Award', do you know why I changed my mind?"

"How could I know." Shen Xin shook her head.

"Because I saw "Y's", at that moment, I suddenly had the urge to beat you, so I posted that Weibo."

"You could have moved Punishment to The Weekly, why not?"

""Punishment" is not my work, it is Su Han's. By the way, Su Han didn't want "Punishment" to participate in the 'Newcomer Award' selection. Later, I met Su Han and made a large number of her works. Dun. The woman was very angry and said that she must find a way to suppress me. I took the opportunity to recommend Xiao Tiaotiao, but I didn't expect the magazine to really poach him."

The more Ye Hexu talked, the more excited he was, and he tapped the coffee cup with the spoon. Fortunately, there were not many customers in the coffee shop on the first day of the new year, otherwise the cup would have to be thrown at him.

"Eh? Why did you bring her in?" Shen Xin was puzzled.

"Why? Don't you think that awards like the Newcomer Award are more interesting when there are more people? I regard you as an opponent, and Tiao Tiao treats me as an opponent... Hehe, it is only valuable to get such a 'Newcomer Award'. You think so too, right?" Ye Hexu excitedly said.

of course not!

Shen Xin rubbed his forehead. If it wasn't for Ye Hexu's meddling, there would be no Ye Hexu and Tiaotiao in the "Newcomer Award" selection this year. Then, the difficulty for him to win the "Newcomer Award" would drop sharply, and he wouldn't have such a headache like now.

The most difficult "Newcomer Award" in recent years was actually created by the little guy in front of him, Shen Xin had nothing to say.
