1983 Past Life Manga King

-Anyway, I’m done talking, so I’ll stop.

Having said that, I hung up the phone.

“·················ogue.”

He took the phone from his ear and looked at it for a moment, then put it down.

Lee Dae-bong, who saw it, giggled and laughed.

“It’s a face I ate again.”

After saying that, it soon turned into a curious expression.

“By the way, did it change to 3 million copies?”

He nodded his head at that.

Then all the fishermen looked surprised.

“2.5 million copies is a lot, but on top of that, are you going to make another 500,000 copies?”

“I think so.”

“Wow, is that possible? It is said that 250 million copies are a record.”

“It seems that the 17th volume of Dragon Ball has sold 2.5 million copies this time.”

“Dragon Ball? Really?”

“Yeah.”

“Jumping must have hurt my self-esteem last time.”

At Silver’s words, Daebong Lee tilted his head.

“If it’s a book, it’s not that there aren’t any manga that produce more first editions than Dragon Ball, why?”

“There is the value of the publisher’s name, and the author is Korean. And the popularity of Dragon Ball right now is the best. Of course, there is a problem that monographs sell less compared to the popularity of serials, but there is also a public opinion that we should beat Machine Gun Jack anyway.”

As Silver said.

I didn’t feel it much before, but the more I gain popularity, the more words are coming out here and there.

Of course, the biggest reason was that almost all of those words were drawn by Koreans.

However, regardless of that, I have a close relationship with Dragon Ball writer Toriyama, who occasionally communicates with each other.

“So, is Nakaya-san shooting 3 million copies because of his pride?”

Silver nodded at Cha Mi-jeong’s question.

“Well, wouldn’t it?”

At that time, Daebong Lee swayed left and right to interrupt.

“Ah, that’s not it.”

“Then what?”

“If you’re proud of yourself, 100,000 copies is enough, so there’s no need to risk increasing it by 500,000 copies.”

“Honestly, I don’t think there’s any guarantee that 2.5 million copies will be sold out.”

“The publishing company also said there was a possibility.”

“It is literally a possibility. Possibility. Don’t you know what it means?”

“I know what it means.”

“But what nonsense?”

“That girl, what kind of person do you look like?”

Silver smirked at those words.

“I feel like I’m stubborn and selfish.”

“So, what about work?”

At those words, Silver hesitated for a moment.

Lee Dae-bong, who was staring at him, smiled single.

“Think of the nine volumes that were taken before. You were crazy back then than you are now.”

The others nodded their heads at that.

“By the way, look after volume 9. How popular is Machine Gun Jack?”

“I heard it’s getting more popular.”

At Kim Ki-chul’s words, Lee Dae-bong nodded his head.

“That’s right. That woman, her usual behavior is a bit strange.”

“She is very strange.”

At my words, Daebong Lee quickly nodded her head.

“Oh, what. Yes, it’s very strange as you said. But everyone admits that he is very talented at work. She said that her business in America is doing very well.”

That’s right.

I don’t know the details, but I’ve heard that they do big business in Europe too. They said that there was also a cartoon-related business.

“So, that girl must have thought that our cartoons would sell that much.”

is it?

But at the end, Lee Dae-bong inserted her absurd words.

“Well, maybe our personal interest in Yunhwan is too much.”

The fishermen who were seriously listening to those words suddenly laughed out loud.

“Uh huh, then it is. How could you be serious?”

“Brother, this is really funny. I will admit it.”

“Yes.”

As the fishermen laughed out loud, Daebong Lee frowned.

“I’m serious right now.”

“Yes Yes.”

“It was the funniest thing I’ve ever heard.”

“Right, right.”

The story was buried in the laughter of fishermen.

The book has finally been published.

I heard that because of the sudden increase in the volume of 500,000 copies, many of the publisher’s employees were put into the printing factory, and that was not enough, so they placed an order for another printing factory.

Normally, I would say 1 million copies and 2 million copies, but for those working in the front line right now, the amount would not have been a joke.

It seems that Jiro, who is in charge, almost lived in a printing factory because of this decision.

Since it was not a one-time print, it seemed that the book was released first and the book continued to be printed.

Kido also got a call to see if he was interested in this case (?).

-Oh, did you sleep well in ‘The Man with 3 Million Wealth’?

Is it a parody of ‘The Six Million Dollar Man’, which has been re-running since last year?

He replied with a bitter smile.

“I may become a ‘man who has a million copies in stock’.”

At that, Kido giggled and laughed.

– You know how to joke like that. You’ve grown a lot.

“Does this sound like a joke? I am serious.”

– The guy who has already surpassed 2 million copies is terribly dead. I’m dying of envy

“Then you can try it too.”

– If you want to and can do that, then no worries. Say something like that to a Tegoshi guy and he’ll laugh at me. Not to mention Nishida. Oh man, the person who finally decided on this 3 million copies was that unusual girl.

“right. Still, when the 3 million copies were decided, they told me directly.”

Kido was startled by my words.

– What, really?

“uh.”

-Did you mean to put pressure on you mentally?

“Well. Maybe it is.”

-She wore her hair too.

“You wear her hair, what do you mean?”

– That’s right. She said that she often quarreled with you as usual. So, with the intention of destroying you mentally…

“After all, hyung also thinks that 3 million copies is unreasonable?”

At that moment, a breathing noise was heard over the phone.

And soon after, the muffled words followed.

– Well, to be honest, I think it’s a bit unreasonable. If it’s 250,000 copies, what would you accept?

“Is that so?”

This is not a normal reaction.

-But, on the other hand, I think, ‘If it were you, it might be possible.’

“Thank you for your words.”

-By the way, Nishida, this guy said it’s absolutely possible. Well, since he’s a guy who usually calls himself a fan of yours, it’s a natural reaction.

However, I can hear people around me saying, “You have made the right decision.”

It seems that Nishida is by her side.

But suddenly, on the phone, ‘Huh? Kido’s voice said, ‘Why are you doing this?’ and then Nishida’s voice was heard.

-I don’t know about serialization, but if it’s a book, there’s a gap of 500,000 copies between teacher’s manga and Dragon Ball.

I answered with a smirk involuntarily in response to such a confident voice.

“Yes, Thank you.”

King of Comic Books (4)

After 10 machine gun jacks were distributed all over Japan, it is said that there was a procession to buy books, mainly from big city publishers.

It seems that there are more fans than ever before.

If you look at the atmosphere, it is said that about 2 million copies are a trend that seems to be selling well.

But after that it will be a problem.

This is because the size of the market is a market where no one has ever pioneered 3 million copies.

I mean, Machine Gun Jack should carve this out.

The power of such popularity lies in Machine Gun Jack.

There are many fanatics, and although it has gained popularity with the public, the number of 3 million copies is a completely different area from 2 million copies.

Of course, in the future, a work like One Piece will exert a monster-like power that can open up to 4 million copies, but that will be about 20 years from now.

In the case of Dragon Ball, too, it seems that many events were held from Boy Jump itself.

While betting on a lottery of ten original illustrations with handwritten signatures.

In addition, it seems that the publishing company even held various broadcasting events to achieve 2.5 million copies.

Originally, it had not been advertised as such.

At this time when masterpieces were pouring in, the boy jump was just too much for other magazines.

Such a boy jump now has a rival.

Although there are still many shortcomings, a publishing company that has grown so fast that it cannot but be taken care of.

A boy hero from Mitsuda Shoten.

Even in the comics world, the story of a battle between the two camps of boy jumping and boy hero is circulating.

Because of that, it may have been that he couldn’t help but care about the boy hero.

Still, it must have been a great thing to print 2.5 million copies and sell them.

Anyway, it’s nice that the market has grown that much.

“Why do you look like that? Are you getting too nervous?”

Lee Dae-bong clenched his chin with one of his hands and looked at him with a crooked face and said.

Then, Park So-mi spoke as if to beat Lee Dae-bong.

“brother is. So, won’t you be nervous?”

“Well, it’s not the first time. Isn’t 2 million copies a daily routine?”

“Joke in moderation. How does it become a routine? And now I am worried about 3 million copies.”

Having said that, Somi Park glanced at me.

Then, Daebong Lee also nodded his head as if he understood.

“Well, 3 million copies is something to be nervous about.”

At that, the other fishermen nodded their heads.

At that time, Kyunghee approached me with a cautious expression and spoke softly.

“If there is stock, wouldn’t it be passed on to us?”

Hearing this, Daebong Lee smirked.

“Why are you passing it on? And it will cost more to bring.”

“Do you really need to bring it? You don’t even have to pay for the warehouse.”

“uh? Is that so?”

Seeing this, Silver said with a puzzled expression.

“What do you understand? crazy guy.”

“Why are you only doing this to me? It was Kyung Hee who spoke up.”

“It’s because I’m still young and I don’t have the ability to discern. But is it okay for a guy over 30 to go crazy at such a thing?”

At that, Kyunghee nodded her head and was startled.

“uh? I’m an adult too!”

At that time, Seonhee also stopped working and raised her right hand.

“I also.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Seon-hee for a moment.

Seon-hee concentrated on painting as if nothing had happened again, but this time, Lee Dae-bong folded her arms and leaned against the back of the sofa.

And immediately looked at me and asked.

“Then, are you feeling the burden of 3 million copies?”

“Well, yes.”

When I nodded my head to answer, Daebong Lee laughed out loud.

“I think it would just be good for me.”

“Because you have no conscience.”

At Silver’s words, Daebong Lee jumped up from his seat.

“Hey!”

That was then.

The door to the studio opened and Mine entered.

It seems that he was still staying in Korea for work.

Anyway, now that we’ve made friends, we don’t ring the doorbell and come in right away.

“Because everyone is okay.”

Say hello in poor Korean.
