Chapter 337: "A Chinese Ghost Story" becomes a huge hit (asking for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets)

Strictly speaking, Lin Fan drew the story of "A Chinese Ghost Story" into a comic and released it just to grab the copyright first and to make up for the regret that the story cannot be made into a movie for the time being. He never thought that this incident would attract so much attention.

When the comic "A Chinese Ghost Story" quickly climbed up the click list, like list, and hot comment list on the Penguin Comics platform, Lin Fan realized how great his appeal was and how strong his fans were.

The comic "A Chinese Ghost Story" has been online for one day.

Number of hits: 36 million

Likes: 8.9 million

Number of hot reviews: 3 million

…

This data can only be achieved by those god-level players. Lin Fan is purely cheating. He relies on his popularity and his fans directly brush up his data. It is really enviable.

Fortunately, this story is very short, and Lin Fan uploaded it all in one go. Fans basically read it all without spending much money by using the free coins they got when registering as new users. Even with the free coins, Lin Fan did make a lot of money. The comic platform gained a large number of new users, and everyone was happy.

Then, the comic "A Chinese Ghost Story" was pushed by Penguin Comics.

Everyone understands this kind of push. When a work, including but not limited to novels, comics, fan fiction, etc., receives a large amount of attention and collection in a short period of time, the related discussions reach a certain number, and the activity of the reader group rises to a certain standard, it will be recommended by the platform.

Twenty-four hours after the release of A Chinese Ghost Story, Penguin Comics users received a push notification: "Popular singer Lin Fan's original comic A Chinese Ghost Story is now online, depicting the unending love between humans and ghosts, the truest love in the world!"

For this kind of push notifications, most people just glance at them and close them if they are not interested, while those who are interested will click in to take a look.

Most people turned it off, and only a few clicked in to read it, but as the old saying goes, a little bit adds up to a lot. Compared to the user base of the entire platform, even if only 1% or even 1% of people were willing to click in, the popularity is amazing! In addition, with the strong promotion of Lin Fan's fans, many passers-by were also attracted to take a look, and then the popularity became higher and higher, and more and more people paid attention to and discussed it.

[The class monitors are all fat: Hey, this style of painting is pretty good! ]

[Biology is bad because we are pure: It seems to be a short story. Wow, this author is awesome! He uploaded it all in one go! Just for your update progress, I subscribed to all of them! ]

[Turning the Corner and Stepping on Shit: I only read the beginning, it seems to be a love short story, I saved it, I've read too many hot-blooded comics, occasionally change my taste and read a warm short story, it's also good! ]

…

Lin Fan posted the story of "A Chinese Ghost Story" on his own Weibo. Although it received widespread attention and discussion due to his large fan base, the number of fans who have read the "original work" is not superior to that of the wider passers-by.

Especially for those who don’t chase stars, who knows who Lin Fan is? Similarly, for those comic book fans who don’t chase stars, it doesn’t matter who Lin Fan is, what matters is whether this comic is good or not.

In the eyes of comic readers, although the painting style of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is not at the master level, it is very comfortable to watch, the character modeling is very careful, and it is full of details. At first glance, it deserves at least a five-star rating.

Then there is the story itself. The rhythm is very well controlled. It has tension and thrills, as well as humor and comedy. The plot is complete and the characters are well-rounded.

If this is a long story, I guess not many people will subscribe to it, but the key is that this is a short story. I read it and finished it before I knew it! For comic readers who can follow a comic for more than ten years, or even may not be able to see the final chapter in their lifetime, this short story is really a surprise, and it is quite interesting to read it occasionally!

So, as time goes by, the number of comic readers who have not read the original work has gradually exceeded the number of fans of the original work.

It’s popular!

The comic "A Chinese Ghost Story" became so popular!

More importantly, with the popularity of the comic version of "A Chinese Ghost Story", it also attracted the attention of some investors.

…

“Does anyone want to make a movie of A Chinese Ghost Story?”

When Lin Fan received the call from Yang Hongxia, he couldn't believe his ears. This was really like someone sending him a pillow when he was sleepy. He was just suffering from the lack of resources to make this story into a movie. Now that an investor came to him, Lin Fan was naturally very happy.

"Yes, the other party is very optimistic about this story. If you are also interested in this matter, I can help you communicate the specific details. Or do you want to talk to the investor in person? I think this is a very good opportunity."

"What chance?"

“An opportunity for dual-line development.”

Yang Hongxia’s idea is very simple. The current domestic situation is not very friendly to a singer. There is still a possibility of becoming a superstar simply by being a singer abroad, but this opportunity is becoming less and less in China.

Lin Fan's sudden appearance gave Yang Hongxia hope, but what would be wrong if this road could be made smoother and easier to walk?

Decades ago, superstars did not just pursue the path of being singers. There were many artists who developed in three fields. It’s not that Lin Fan is asked to give up being a singer, but just to let him devote a little bit of his energy to developing in multiple fields.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

What's more, "A Chinese Ghost Story" is a story created by Lin Fan. It can be seen from the fact that he specially drew comics for this story that Lin Fan has high hopes for this story.

So Yang Hongxia felt that Lin Fan would most likely not refuse.

But what Lin Fan was thinking of was the joke of "the original work was tragically adapted into a film or TV series".

There is no other way. On Earth, there are too many original works that have been ruined by film and television dramas. Lin Fan dare not sell this story to the film company casually. What if the other party has the skill of "turning fighting spirit into a horse"?

Although it may seem a bit like meddling, Lin Fan doesn't want this classic to be ruined in his hands, so Lin Fan still hopes to understand how the other party wants to make this movie.

"Sister Xia, can you make an appointment to have a good talk with the investor?"

It's not just a matter of investment, but also adaptation, filming, and even character selection. Lin Fan wants to understand everything. If these things are not clear, rather than ruining the original work, Lin Fan would rather let the story remain at the comic stage for the time being.

"No problem, I'll make the time."

Although Yang Hongxia didn't know what Lin Fan wanted to discuss with the investors specifically, she felt that it was indeed necessary for the two parties to meet, so she agreed very readily.

Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll trouble Sister Xia."

Yesterday's chapter was blocked, so I'll post it again. There is a video about this book posted by a book friend on the small P station. You can go there to support it. It is very well done and very attentive. You can see it by just searching the name of the book. Thanks again to "Passing by".
