"Should the two editions be released at the same time? Editor-in-Chief Minano really has a good idea."

Regarding what Zhang said, Li Yalin shook his head lightly. Of course he could see through such a simple calculation at a glance.

As a fan of Mr. Lilin, two versions of his new novel are released together. Do you want to buy it?

For true fans, the answer is of course to buy, buy, buy, this is not obvious.

According to the normal publishing order of writers in special regions in this world, no matter whether it is novels or comics, the special region version will be released first to test the waters, and after the results are achieved, the national version will be released. It's over.

If it is a good work, fans will generally buy the SAR version first, and then buy the national version, which has become a common practice.

But the problem is that the release interval between the normal SAR version and the national version will be kept between half a year or four months, and it is really rare for them to be released at the same time.

Rare is rare, but it is not uncommon. On the premise that the work is sure to be a hit, such a situation is not unavoidable.

In Li Yalin's eyes, this is purely an act of defrauding fans of money, but unfortunately, he is the author and not the publisher, and he is not likely to participate in this kind of commercial behavior.

What's more, for a considerable number of fans, they are eager to release a few more versions for their collection.

This is the so-called meaning that different people think differently.

But in any case, it is estimated that in the future it will really not worry about money.

I just don't know if the system will provide me with a script again, and if it provides a script, what kind of script will it give me?

It's best to use a script with a high force value, and it would be even better if it's from the fantasy magic department. Myself... I really lack strength!

Through various signs, Li Yalin has discovered that the items or abilities he got in the lottery are all from the script works given to him by the system.

Such as Maoyan, such as the Alice Sonata.

In other words, according to this setting, as long as the work of Sword Art Online appears, if he draws a lottery again, he may be able to get the ability or weapon props in the sword.

Although it cannot be verified immediately, Li Yalin feels that there is nothing wrong with this idea.

So he is looking forward to it, hoping that the system can give him a strong work, and then use the lottery to gain more strength.

No way, with the appearance of the witch and the existence of another world, he has deeply realized his own shortcomings.

Not to mention, there are still so many girls waiting for him in the isolated world of the Academy.

Without strength, it will not work at all.

And the best shortcut to gain strength is the system!

It's a pity that if the task is not triggered, it's better not to think about the script work.

Go through your daily life with peace of mind.

As Jian Zhang said, it didn't take long for Maoyan's national booklet and the two versions of Sword Art Online to be released as scheduled.

As one of the most popular comics today, the number of Maoyan's first printing in the country is as high as Bianwan, and there are 200,000 reprints in the special zone.

As for Sword Art Online, which is a novel and is the first to propose the concept of light novels, the number of first prints cannot be so exaggerated, but even so, the national first print of the first volume of Sword Art Online has reached an astonishing 300,000 copies. In terms of editions, it is 100,000 copies.

Novels are no better than comics. After all, one is text and the other is intuitive images. There will definitely be a gap in sales.

Taking the novels in this world as an example, a normal serialized novel can be regarded as a masterpiece if the cumulative sales volume of the first volume exceeds 100,000, and it can be called a masterpiece if the total annual sales volume exceeds 500,000 copies. writer.

As for comics, the total annual sales of well-known cartoonists start with a million copies.

The two editions of Sword Art Online were released at the same time, and the first prints totaled 400,000 copies, which is already approaching the direction of famous writers.

You must know that even for real famous writers, the first printing of their works is only 50,000 copies. For some unknown writers, it is a mark to have a first printing of 10,000 copies. Normally speaking, it is actually a few thousand copies. That's all.

In such a comparison, the gap is really not small.

In a sense, in Li Yalin's opinion, Lori's editor-in-chief, who seems to be doing things safely, is actually quite a courageous person. At least in the eyes of many people in the industry, her decision is definitely driven by enthusiasm.

Yes, I have to admit that Maoyan is indeed very good-looking. The sold out of the 300,000 first prints of the SAR edition has proved the strength of this comic, and the first print of a million copies nationwide is also reasonable.

But the question is, Mr. Lilin's first novel, you dare to play like this when you don't know the content at all, isn't it a bit too bold?

You know, novels are no better than comics. If they are not recognized by readers, if they fail to sell, they will all fall into the rhythm of their hands.

How good can a novel written by a cartoonist be?

Although Weekly Shonen GONGON's publicity campaign has not stopped from the very beginning, but in fact, people in the industry are really not optimistic about this marketing method.

Yes, in the eyes of many people in the industry, this is a marketing tool.

Isn't it because a cartoonist is popular, and he thinks that fans are easy to cheat, and then uses various means to make money.

This look is really ugly.

After all, it is a magazine that has just been established, lacks foundation, and always wants to win by surprise, but you don't look at it, are fans really so easy to be fooled?

Do you really think that you can gain readers' approval by producing an unknown light novel?

Can a novel written by any cartoonist easily sell well?

too naive!

People in the industry are not optimistic about Sword Art Online, and many fans on the Internet are also pessimistic.

Even some true fans of Maoyan still hold a wait-and-see attitude towards the publication of Sword Art Online.

It’s true that Teacher Lilin’s cat eyes are beautiful, but comics are not equal to novels. Although it’s right to support Teacher Lilin, you can’t be too blind, right?

Regarding these issues, Li Yalin is actually clear, because seeing Zhang Zhen often mentions them in front of him.

It was even said that this girl wanted to use various methods to fight back, such as holding a reader meeting, high-profile publicity or something, at least to suppress those negative public opinions.

She likes Maoyan and Sword Art Online very much, and she is a loyal fan of Li Yalin.

Those negative remarks really made her very uncomfortable.

However, Li Yalin was very calm about the idea of ​​meeting Zhang.

Questioning the sword?

It doesn't matter, whatever you want.

No matter how much you say and do now, it is better to use facts to witness the truth.

After the sword is officially released, can't you use the results to slap those doubters in the face?
