Chapter 245 Comics Online

The studio got back on track very quickly.

This was originally a very mature studio with extremely high-quality accumulation in all aspects. It was precisely because of its high quality that it was targeted by Mi Xiaolin's venture capital group. Taking advantage of an investment opportunity, they used all kinds of shady means to squeeze out the original person in charge and turn the studio into their group's industry.

Many of the items split up in this judicial auction are such high-quality resources. Let’s not talk about how much benefit Xie Wenyuan, Zhong Yi, Lao Zhu, and even Xia Junjie have gained from this matter. For now, for Chu Ge and his wife, this studio is very useful.

Not only do they have experienced artists, they also have a copyright department and an operations department, and they are connected to all the major websites. The studio has several works on hand, some of which are well-known. Chu Ge didn't pay attention to the comic authors before, and didn't know who drew them. Now he knows that his company draws them...

Since the company moved to Nanjiang, a small number of local employees resigned and did not come with the company, but the vast majority of non-local employees still followed. In addition to the locals, most of the people working in this industry are young people who have no family burdens. It doesn't matter where they work, and Zhu Mengmeng even offers higher pay.

As a result, the overall framework of the studio was kept relatively intact and could be operated directly without any lag after reorganization. It gave people the feeling that it was just a change of location... and the boss was pretty.

In fact, most of the employees working on animation are old netizens and are fans of the second dimension. Some of them are even fans of the CP of Hatsuaki No Love… When they found out that their new boss was actually that couple, they were so happy.

The other female boss is a single wealthy woman. Well... anyway, it's much more comfortable than when I was under that group and had to deal with the hideous manager who came from there and gave orders.

Everyone worked together and finished drawing the first three episodes of Chu Ge's adapted script within three days.

Qiu Wuji was very satisfied. The expressiveness of the pictures was indeed much more intuitive than that of words. Chu Ge's adaptation was also good. Even his early signs of routine writing were diluted to the lightest by the adaptation and the fairy-like painting skills.

She didn't know much about the comics market, but based on her own perspective, she thought it would be very popular.

"Boss Qiu, this comic will really be a hit. I can vouch for it based on my years of experience in the industry! I've never seen a comic so lifelike. Boss Qiu is amazing!" The operations manager patted his chest and said, "I'll contact Dianniang Comics and it will be online this week! Boss Qiu will just check the data then!"

November 11th, Singles’ Day.

The comic "Chu Tian Wu Ji" has officially landed on the Penguin Comics platform and was simultaneously launched on multiple animation website channels. The first three chapters were released and updated every Tuesday.

It doesn't matter whether the operations manager is confident or not, the initial popularity of this comic book exceeded his expectations for a new comic book within the first hour of its release.

Since the boss participated in Xie Wenyuan's project investment, this project can be regarded as one of the group's own projects in a sense, and it is relatively important. Xie Wenyuan also allocated an additional amount of publicity and promotion expenses, resulting in this comic being highly recommended when it was launched. This treatment is ten thousand times better than when Chu Ge started a new book.

Qiu Wuji posted a new blog post on Weibo: "This comic I drew is adapted from my friend Chu Ge's book. Do you think this cover is good-looking?"

Chu Ge himself also published a separate chapter in the book: "The comic is online, I revised the script, and Qiuqiu drew it personally."

The focus of the two people is on each other, but people just fall for it. It can be said that the title alone is enough to make all CP fans and original fans reach climax.

With the official promotion and the influx of fans of the original novel and the CP, the comic soared to the top ten of the Penguin Comics New Works List within ten minutes of its release, and within an hour, it landed at number one.

The operations manager was dumbfounded. Only the first three chapters had been released in just an hour, and this was still the result of channel diversion... I've been working in the comics industry for so many years, but I've never seen anything like this. If you let Brother XZ release the comics, I'm afraid this would be the result, right?

Well, almost. They are both number one anyway.

But initial popularity does not represent everything. Word of mouth and retention are the most important. Otherwise, if everyone comes symbolically for team building to have some fun, but if the comics are not good, everyone will eventually go their separate ways, which is meaningless.

The operations manager stared at the comment section nervously, then slowly let out a long sigh and smiled in relief.

"Fuck, this is the Chu Tiange in my mind! I knew Chu Tiange at first sight! It has touched my heart!"

“Fuck, fuck, I wouldn’t know until I see it, this was drawn by Qiuqiu? This painting skill is too amazing!”

"Compared to the current cartoons where everyone looks exactly the same except for their hair, this is a breath of fresh air. How is this drawn? It's too exaggerated."

"Yeah, I thought I was here for fun, but this f*cking scared me. I'm going to tell them in the group chat, or you'll regret it if you don't watch it!"

"You don't need to tell the group. The Cao Ge group and the Zhen Ge group are both going crazy. There are 99+ in one second. I can't even keep up."

"The key is that the plot is very consistent with the original. I am most afraid of watching the kind of adaptations that are so changed that even my mother can't recognize them. This one doesn't seem to be changed, but in fact it has been changed a little bit. But why is it so smooth?"

"Because this was modified by Chu Da himself!"

"This is a divine combination."

The carnival of the original fans is just like the Chinese New Year.

CP fans are similar: "Fuck, I thought Hatsuaki no Koi was just an internet celebrity selling image and concept, this comic is too good, isn't it?"

"I also went to download the original book and created a group, but I only read half a chapter. I don't like reading books... It would be great to have a comic. This is really well drawn."

"Qiuqiu had published a comic draft before, and at that time she said she was an apprentice. I said at the time that her character illustrations were not something an apprentice could draw. She must be a master."

"Don't just talk about the painting style, the plot is also good. Don't forget that this is Chu Chu's book."

"So this is a match made in heaven, otherwise what kind of CP would we be fans of?"

If we say that these people have a high opinion of the app, there are still many who come here purely because of the APP recommendation. They don’t know who owns who at all. Looking at their discussions, they are all confused:

"What are you talking about? What's Chu Chu? There's no one named Chu Chu in this comic."

"You newbies? Hey, tell me, from your perspective as an outsider, is the painting good looking?"

"…Although I don't know what Chuchu, Qiuqiu, and other nonsense are, but with my many years of experience in the comics industry, this drawing alone is enough to keep me going. As long as the plot is not a bunch of bullshit, I'll probably follow it."

"Don't worry, there's no way my Chu Da's plot could be a waste of time!"

"I think the plot of the first three episodes is quite intriguing. How often will it be updated?"

"Oh, two updates a week... that seems okay, but I can't wait, I'll go read the original novel first."

The operations manager knew he was in trouble as soon as he saw the situation.

What is the biggest fear of novel comic adaptations? The biggest fear is that the original fans will not accept the work. It is too difficult to rely on the word-of-mouth of newcomers who have not read the original work to promote the work. Now the word-of-mouth of this work has exploded from many sides. Although it seems to be very popular, the actual total number of people is not that large. But this is only the third episode... As long as the subsequent quality can keep up, it will be hard not to be popular at this rate.

Chu Geqiu Wuji was also in the room reading the comments, and the couple were stunned.

After reading for a long time, Qiu Wuji muttered in a low voice: "Why do I always feel that... your books may not be as popular as your comics?"

"Be more confident and remove the word 'maybe'. Or maybe the comics may not be popular, but if the animation is good, it will definitely be more popular than my original work." Chu Ge was very calm: "Even if the original work is not popular, there are many works that are popular because of animation and film and television."

"But your original work has done very well. Without the original work, the comic wouldn't have had the initial popularity. People buy IPs largely because of the popularity of the original work, right?"

"Well... they complement each other. But my original text has a certain reading threshold, so there must be an upper limit, while the pictures have no threshold, which is why I want to adapt it so much... Only in this way can we achieve world recognition. Now we have successfully taken the most critical step."

Chu Ge is still more sober than anyone else.

Others want to be famous as a goal, but he wants to be famous only as a means to achieve the real purpose of the world.

Everyone’s pursuits have long been different.
