Chapter 10 Cat's Eye Storm
The Weekly Shonen Fiery under Elite Publishing House can definitely be regarded as the top manga magazine in the special zone of the island country. In terms of circulation, it is difficult to compare it with other magazines of the same type.

The comics industry in the special zone of the island country is second to none in the empire. After all, in order to vigorously develop the cultural economy, the empire has given many preferential policies. In comparison, the special zone of the island country is actually the most suitable for the development of the entertainment industry.

It is also because of this that the entertainment industry in the special zone of the island country is prevalent. In recent years, a large number of idol stars have been discovered, which are deeply sought after by the audience.

It's a pity that being able to discover high-quality idols doesn't mean that you can have high-quality works. At least in Li Yalin's opinion, those idol stars who are broadcast on TV every day seem to have nothing to be commended except for their appearance.

Even if you have strength, it is useless without corresponding works.

By the way, the comics industry seems to have been inspired by this recently, thinking of using cartoonists themselves to create IP value, and even launched the concept of idol cartoonists, which attracted quite a few readers to buy it.

Just from a factual point of view, a cartoonist who can draw popular cartoons and have an idol-worthy appearance is basically equal to zero.

Of course, basically equal to zero does not mean that there is no one. Right now, Weekly Shonen Fiery has launched a young newcomer cartoonist. I heard that it is going to be vigorously cultivated, and his works are indeed very popular. When it first appeared in the magazine, it was absolutely The superiority defeated a well-known cartoonist in the same period, which can be described as horror.

Logically speaking, such a potential newcomer will surely achieve greater achievements under the promotion of the magazine. Although it cannot be said that he will reach the top of the pyramid in the comics industry in a short period of time, as long as he is given time, he will definitely be able to succeed. rise.

In the new issue of reader feedback, this young rookie has a very high praise rate. Among the 5 works serialized in the same period, his works are ranked No.[-] in popularity, except for the top few top cartoonists in front of him. , he seems to have no rivals.

Maybe he'll be one of those top cartoonists soon.

In this case, the evaluation of this new cartoonist on the Internet is not too bad. Rather, on the Internet that is more able to accept new things, such a newcomer author should be more popular.

However, what the editors of the Weekly Shonen Fiery editorial department never imagined was that the newcomer they promoted did not get much attention on the Internet. Cat's-Eye works draw past.

Cat's-Eye?

What kind of work is this?
When the editors of Weekly Shonen Fiery heard the news on the forum, their first reaction was to look at each other in blank dismay. Although they reviewed many works every day, no one had any impression of this comic called Cat's-Eye.

Nobody reviewed Cat's-Eye, so why is this comic on the magazine's website?Has anyone neglected to miss an excellent work?Or is there something wrong here?
Or in other words... all the good reviews on the Internet were paid by the manga author?
It’s not uncommon for works to be cut in half in magazines but become popular on the Internet. In fact, this kind of situation can happen once or twice a year. After all, the editorial department cuts works in half according to a strict process. Black is black and white is white. , Everything depends on the grades, if the grades fail to meet the standards, they will be replaced by better works.

This is the company's regulations. From the perspective of capital, there is nothing wrong with it, but from the perspective of cartoonists, it is a bit unreasonable. After all, for cartoonists, every work of theirs is theirs. Hard work is equivalent to their children. If possible, no one is willing to give up their children easily.

It is also because of this that cartoonists who are not willing to cut their works in half will choose to continue to update and serialize on the Internet. If the follow-up plot is recognized by readers, it is possible to bring the work back to life, but this is very rare.

What's more common is the extreme methods used by cartoonists who can't think about it, such as spending money to gain popularity, which can't be regarded as new.

It's a pity that if you want to gain readers' approval, excellent works are the real last word. Such a popular situation can certainly keep the work popular for a period of time, but after the popularity passes, it will immediately disappear.

So, is the work of Cat's-Eye really an excellent work, or was it paid for?
When the editors of Weekly Shonen Fiery carefully read the first chapter of this work, they basically knew it in their hearts.

Yes, everyone is not a newcomer in this industry. Whether a work is excellent or not can be seen from the first chapter. Because of this, the editors of Cat's-Eye all took a breath of cold air. .

"It's no wonder this work is so popular, it can attract too many readers with this exquisite style of painting!"

"It's not just about the painting style. The story of this work is also very good. Although the love story between the female thief and the male policeman has not been fully unfolded, I can't wait to continue watching it!"

"This is definitely an excellent work that has been rarely seen in recent years. My god...why did the author of this work choose to update it on the Internet instead of submitting it to a magazine?"

Even the editors of Weekly Shonen Fiery lost their composure, not to mention the reaction of readers. In fact, the storm caused by the three Maoyan sisters on the Internet is far more exaggerated than imagined.

Although the comics industry in this world is in its infancy, it is very popular among young people, especially on the Internet. An excellent work will definitely become the object of discussion.

It is also under such circumstances that the three Maoyan sisters were quickly discovered without any special promotion. Those readers who have read this work will spontaneously spread the word to Amway friends. A horrible phenomenon happened.

On the ranking of Weekly Shonen Fiery's website, those excellent works that are being serialized in the magazine are always on the list, but in just two days, the ranking suddenly changed dramatically.

A work called "Cat's-Eye" seemed to be on a rocket. It entered the top ten of the rankings at an extremely fast speed, followed by the top five, then the top three, and finally competed for the second place. Take the first throne!
That's right!It is the first throne!
Without any packaging and promotion, it was able to rush all the way to the top of the rankings. This work undoubtedly caused a great impact in a short period of time.

So, as the author of this work, what is Li Yalin, the initiator of all this, doing now?
