Chapter 39

Yan Kai is a 14-year-old junior high school student. His greatest hobby in his life is reading comics. He especially likes RB manga artist Hojo Tsukasa. A well-known manga artist like Tsukasa Hojo.

However, the living environment of domestic cartoonists is a bit difficult. Most of them either draw comic books or four-frame comics. Almost no one draws Japanese-style comics.

"No one draws me, and I will be the father of Chinese comics in the future." Little Yan Kai made his wish, but now, he is just an ordinary junior high school student.

On this day, Yan Kai came to a bookstore not far from home as usual to see if there were any new comics?
This bookstore is considered private. Although it also sells genuine books, most of them are pirated editions. After all, pirated editions cost a few cents and can be sold for two or three yuan, while genuine books cost three or four yuan, but they can only be sold. Five yuan, even a fool knows which one makes money.

But this time the owner of the bookstore bought a few more genuine comics. This is a story about an ancient sword fairy. When he went to buy it, he was attracted by the exquisite cover. this comic.In the past, he just bought two or three books and put them on the bookshelf to pretend, but this time it was a big investment.

After Yan Kai walked in, he lingered for a long time in front of the shelves of pirated comic books.Although pirated copies are cheap, there are too many of them. As a junior high school student, he doesn't have that much money at all, so he can only spend as much time as possible in front of the bookshelves, reading as much as possible.

"Cough!" Seeing his virtue, the boss immediately came over with a feather duster, and stopped him from rubbing the books for the convenience of cleaning.

"..." Yan Kai put down a book of Saint Seiya in embarrassment, and walked towards other bookshelves pretending not to notice.

"Hmph!" The boss got into a fight with him, and he followed him wherever he went, but he was not allowed to rub against him.

Yan Kai was about to cry: Isn't it just rubbing you a few books to read!As for?
In desperation, he had no choice but to leave.

But when passing the only genuine bookshelf, I was suddenly attracted by a beautiful cover on the bookshelf.

"This is?" The cover is a pair of young men and women. The man's clothes look a bit sloppy, but his super handsome appearance conceals the rusticity of his clothes, while the other girl is charming and charming, with a natural charm, like A fairy descended from the mortal world.

The background is a peach blossom forest with flying petals, which is beautiful and dreamy.

There are five artistic characters written horizontally on the bottom of the cover - The Legend of Sword and Fairy.

There is also a parenthesis at the back-episode 1.

Yan Kai ignored the boss's death gaze and picked up the book. He thought it was a novel, but after opening it, it turned out to be a comic.

Yan Kai's eyes lit up, and he flipped through it hastily. Just when the boss couldn't resist using a feather duster to drive people away, Yan Kai asked, "How much?"

The boss looked pale, and said: "The price is as much as you want."

"..." Yan Kai glanced at the price on the back cover, five yuan.

It's so expensive!
"Is this the genuine copy?" Yan Kai took a closer look and felt that the book is quite exquisite, and the paper feels good, which is obviously different from the pirated version.

"People's Fine Arts Publishing House, absolutely genuine." The boss said, "Let me tell you, this is the first genuine comic in our country. This cartoonist named Xiaolong will definitely be a big hit in the future. Buy it now and you will make money."

"..." Yan Kai caressed the cover of the book, gritted his teeth, and took out the only five yuan from his pocket: "There's no need to look for it."

Pooh!I didn't have to look for it.

The boss took the slightly torn five-yuan note with a smile on his face: "Then thank you."

……

Situations like Yan Kai's happened from time to time in bookstores all over the country. Suddenly, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" became a topic of communication among young people. If anyone has never read "Legend of Sword and Fairy", they don't know Li Xiaoyao Whoever it is with Zhao Linger is out of date.

What young people want is to save face, and no one would admit that they are outdated, so many young people who planned to spend their money on Hong Kong and Taiwan star posters generously donated their money and replaced the star posters with "Legend of Sword and Fairy" comics.

From this point of view, eight out of ten have fallen into the pit.Girls are basically the ones who don't get into the pit. After all, the plot of Fairy Sword is male-oriented. Girls naturally don't like to read this type of genre, but the style of this comic is really beautiful and exquisite. Not only the characters are beautiful, but even the background is beautiful It's so beautiful, even if you're not a fan of comics, it's totally worth the money to buy one as a collection.

In just over ten days, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has become popular all over the country, selling more than 20 copies. It suddenly attracted "Luoyang Paper Expensive", and major bookstores across the country sold out of stock one after another. Urge the publishing house to send new books.

This made the publishing house overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped up printing. Fortunately, the publishing house is a national level, and with all its efforts in printing, it finally kept up with the demand of the market.

But everyone did not expect that the popularity of this book lasted surprisingly long, and it remained high until October, not to mention social youths in their twenties, and even the students in the school were hotly discussed. It is also Legend of Sword and Fairy.

For example, "Jiu Jianxian is too powerful, he must be the most skilled person in the fairy sword", "Ling'er is so pitiful, grandma and maid are both dead, what should I do in the future?" ', 'The sisters of the Ding family are really interesting, they must like Li Xiaoyao', 'Aunt Li is actually a master of martial arts, she is simply a fairy sword version of a sweeping monk' and so on.

As the popularity continued, the sales of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" also increased. In two months, the sales directly exceeded one million. The editor-in-chief of the publishing house was so happy that he could not see his teeth, so he personally called Ma Xiaolong to announce the good news: "Xiaolong Teacher, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is too popular, we have received letters from readers all over the country in the past two months, and we can hardly hold them, do you want to come and take the letters away?"

Ma Xiaolong is also very happy, because according to the copyright share, he can earn 40 cents for every book sold. Now that the sales volume has exceeded one million, his share has also exceeded 30. Although he still has to pay taxes, There are more than [-] after paying taxes!

I can buy a few more courtyard houses.

In addition to copyright fees, Ma Xiaolong has earned more than 30 in design shares in the past few months.

Since opening up the southern market, the brand effect of Linglong clothing has grown rapidly. Now citizens in major cities across the country know that Linglong clothing is a high-end clothing brand. In the past two months, Zhu Lingling has also placed advertisements on CCTV. Wealthy money and wives cannot refuse.

Wear Linglong costumes, you have face.

What the hell, it's really rustic and luxurious, but people in this era eat this set, so the autumn styles of Linglong clothing are sold out, and the remaining spring and summer styles from before have also been bought out by taking advantage of the price reduction.

Seeing that the winter models were about to go on sale, Ma Xiaolong felt that he was going to make a fortune again.

With the transfer of comic copyright into the account, Ma Qiangsheng and his grandfather went to Beijing fearfully with 70 yuan in their pockets. They didn't even look at the buildings, but had a clear purpose of buying a courtyard house under the imperial city.

Is the courtyard house under the imperial city easy to buy?It is definitely not easy to buy, but you have 70, is it easy to buy?good buy.

In just one week, with the help of his uncle, Ma Qiangsheng bought a courtyard house that he was satisfied with in all aspects. This courtyard house is in Dashizuo Hutong, which belongs to the back door of the imperial city. It covers an area of ​​40 square meters. It took a full [-] yuan to buy a courtyard house in the capital.In order to buy this yard, Ma Qiangsheng was reviewed by some departments for several days.

With Ma Qiangsheng's background and ability, he certainly couldn't afford the courtyard house in Huangchenggen, but he bought the courtyard house for his son, so these people found out about Ma Xiaolong.After this investigation, the image of a gifted child appeared on the paper, and then appeared on the desk of the relevant department.

Designing clothes, drawing comics, and earning nearly a million dollars in less than a year?

The staff took these materials and looked at them for a long time... tears came down.

Other people's children earn 100 million yuan a year, but they themselves only earn 300 yuan a month. How can they justify it?

Is there really such a big gap between geniuses and mortals?

In any case, Ma Xiaolong's background was not a problem, and the courtyard house was successfully registered in his name. Since then, he has become neighbors with people from the imperial city.

By the way, he also has some comic fans.

""Legend of Sword and Fairy" is so beautiful." Some staff members said so.
