Chapter 316: Bulb Club Game Project "White Album"
“Since Mr. An An doesn’t pay much attention to this project, then we don’t have to be too concerned. Although the market potential of children’s picture books is greater than that of literary picture books, new vests like'Andersen’ release works without any publicity. , How can there be good sales?" Shen Chengle’s deputy Sun Xiumin said.
Sun Xiumin was not optimistic about "Andersen Children's Picture Book" at the beginning, because the physical book market does not mean that good quality books can sell good sales. There are very few pure new authors who can publish physical books, unless they publish at their own expense. , Otherwise, where would publishers take the risk to help pure newcomers to publish works? Or maybe they have a strong network, so that other famous artists can recommend his new work. Some famous artists recommend such a girdle, which makes people more confident.
Generally speaking, publishing houses still welcome authors who are serialized and famous in magazines. Such authors have a popular foundation. If the works maintain a good reputation and quality, then naturally, "the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys."
Teacher An An’s reputation is of course very high, and the quality of her works is also very high, but she wants to use the new vest, and she doesn’t need her own fame to create momentum for the new vest. In this case, the publisher directly helps her The first printing of 50,000 copies is already very face-to-face.
When Shen Chengle heard Sun Xiumin’s words, and saw how other people were also very impressed, he couldn’t help but regret: “The quality of this children’s picture book is really very high. If possible, I don’t want it to be buried. They didn't give us any publicity resources. It seems that they didn't take this children's picture book to heart...think about it. The sales of any one of Yi'an's martial arts comics can kill all picture book works, only children's picture books. I can't make them value it at all."
In the end, Shen Chengle reluctantly gave up, and this project was temporarily shelved. Sun Xiumin and others even felt that whether this children's picture book could be sold out for the first printing of 50,000 copies was a problem. After all, the sales volume of this children's picture book was less than 1,000 in one week. book.
But in this world. There are always people who like to search for books, who can dig out some buried gold.
Jiang Yulan is a primary school Chinese teacher who likes to read. She has a lovely five-year-old daughter. On weekends, she would take her daughter to the bookstore in the center of the city to read books, and she would also go shopping for books.
Every time she went to the bookstore, she would take her daughter to the children's picture book area. When the child was young. Watching picture books with her is a good way to enlighten, especially when reading high-quality picture books.
In Jiang Yulan's mind, the best picture book is of course An An's "Flying Bird Collection", but it is a literary picture book, not suitable for children, they simply cannot understand the poems and paintings in it. But literary and artistic young people regard "The Collection of Flying Birds" as one of the must-see classic picture books.
Jiang Yulan is very familiar with the third volume of "Yang Yingna Children's Picture Book". Ready to read together with my daughter.
Yang Yingna is a senior picture book painter specializing in the field of children's picture books. Her works are sold very well, and they have even been exported overseas. They have been translated into many languages. Five years ago, she was on the top of the picture book painter income list.
In all fairness, her work is indeed of a good standard, and she is extremely productive. She has struggled in the field of children's picture books for more than ten years, and it is inevitable that she can have such achievements today.
That is, last year, An An’s literary and artistic picture book "The Collection of Flying Birds" turned out, which only slightly broke Yang Yingna’s dominance. At that time, a reporter who feared that the world would not chaos interviewed Yang Yingna and asked her what she thought of "The Collection of Flying Birds." .
Journalists who like to fan the flames, before asking Yang Yingna’s views on "Asuka", said a lot of uncomfortable things. For example, although your children’s picture book by Yang Yingna has a high sales volume, it is about connotation and drawing skills. It's not as good as Teacher An An. Of course, the reporter's standard of speaking is still very high. He didn't say this directly, but expressed the meaning in a roundabout way.
However, Yang Yingna has seen a lot of winds and waves. Wherever she is caught by reporters, she is also recognized in the circle as a good person, so she just smiled and said that she admired Teacher An An's literary and artistic picture books, and hoped that Teacher An An will continue to work hard.
She knows that An An’s focus is still in the field of comics, and the picture books are only literary and art picture books, which can not threaten her status at all. Why is she going to offend a genius like Teacher An An?
Besides, the money she earns in a year is actually enough for her to spend a lifetime, so she herself is very open-minded, and she often likes to lead new picture book painters.
After all, in the entire Greater China, comics are the real mainstream. If you can make a splash in the field of comics, who will paint picture books?
After reading the picture book with her daughter for a while~lightnovelpub.net~, Jiang Yulan prepared to let her read it by herself. She said to her daughter: "Noisy, just read the book by yourself here, and my mother will also find some books to accompany you. ."
Although Nao Nao's nickname is "Nao Nao", she is actually very quiet, and she nodded obediently.
When Jiang Yulan went to search for books, the young girl also put down the "Yang Yingna Children's Picture Book". She was actually tired of reading Yang Yingna's picture books. She always felt that they were all similar and slightly different. After reading several books, I felt really boring, and the paintings inside were not very good. It didn't feel cute at all. It was not as good as the comics that she secretly watched at home!
Nao Nao is obviously a relatively early-minded child, otherwise ordinary children, why would they dislike Yang Yingna's work?
Nao Nao also started to look at other children's picture books at will. Coincidentally, she saw a lonely book of "Andersen Children's Picture Book" in the corner. She thought the cover was very beautiful, so she picked up this picture book and read it... …
When she opened the picture book and saw the pictures in it, her whole eyes lit up. The paintings were so beautiful. The beautiful paintings alone made her suddenly attracted!
When Jiang Yulan returned with the book she found, she saw that her daughter was reading a new picture book, and she watched it with such gusto, even more involved than when she read with her daughter before!
This involuntarily made her curiosity, and walked to her daughter to take a look. As a result, she was also attracted by the superb painting skills inside. She even produced a kind of "such painting skills to draw picture books, which is really a bit wasteful" Thoughts, you can see how pleasing the paintings in this picture book are. (To be continued.)
