Chapter 229 - Sold Out (2/2)

This must have been a line from the TV series, “Bright Sword”, that had been completely in the tone of Li Yun Long. This was very telling of his abilities.

Immediately afterward, he changed his voice again. “No matter who’s buying my book, I’ll be on Club358 helping out!”

The voice, the tone… It must be captain Chu!

“Buy buy buy!”

“I already bought it yesterday though!”

“Based on this commercial, I’m going to buy another copy!”

“Meng boss, do another female voice, and I’ll buy a hundred more copies!”

Meng Fan fooled around with his voice for another half an hour or so. The object of imitation had been the big guy from 8th Station’s ghost and creature genre. As for the celebrities that his netizens had requested, Meng Fan was unable to learn their characteristics. It wasn’t just the kind that one could learn from listening; he had to familiarize himself and study the person first.

Meng Fan could totally imitate Jim Carrey, but there was no way he could mimic Justin Bieber.

In half an hour, the effect of his advertisement was pretty good. Once Meng Fan began streaming, he had started looking at the sales experience for the task [Professional Manga Artist].

On the first day, they sold 34,000 copies. There was a pretty big disparity on the second day. From 9:00 pm until midnight, they only sold 3000 copies. Their main market had been targeted at the first launch. The sales were definitely going to fall until they reached a stable number. Later, if they could maintain a couple of hundred copies a day, he would be happy.

Before the advertisement plug, he had gained 7000 experience points. Basically, his half an hour sales pitch and imitations had sold him 7000 copies. This was the second day of their sales and several netizens had preordered a copy already. If he did this on the first day, the numbers would be way higher.

This was the power of advertising on stream!

“That’s all!”

“Meng fatty, what kind of website did you give me? It’s already sold out!”

“It’s sold out on the other sites too!”

“Already?”

Meng Fan confirmed that he had only gained 44,000 experience, but they printed 50,000!

Mr.Sleepy was watching Meng Fan’s stream and immediately called to ask. He then sent a message to Meng Fan. “40,000 copies of the first print were sold online, while the remaining 10,000 were sold in physical stores. The 40,000 units online are actually sold out now. I’m going to communicate with the publisher to print some new copies.”

Meng Fan immediately played Mr.Sleepy’s voice memo to his netizens then spoke with his usual voice, “Sorry, I underestimated your buying abilities! If I knew you guys were this badass, I would have sold it on TV! Uhm, the books are sold out, so I’m gonna pack up.”

As he spoke, he prepared to log off. The netizens were not pleased.

“F*ck he’s nasty!”

“What a merciless host. He’s holding back Mr.Sleepy!”

“Leave your female cosplay first!”

Meng Fan was obviously joking. He didn’t dare do such a thing. He sat obediently in his chair. There was no way he could continue spewing his advertisements, and he didn’t draw either. He continued the theme of imitation and began to sing a few songs using the voices of various celebrities.

As for the female voices, he added a few surprises occasionally, but not too much, as it would be too much to bear.

At around 11:00 pm, he ended the stream with a “Let me giao giao”.

After logging off the stream, Meng Fan called a takeout and drew as he waited. He sent his finished drawings to Chen Da Qiang and then uploaded the completed late-stage panels to Penguin Animation Network’s backstage interface and queued up the update time. He couldn’t guarantee if he had time to draw in the next few days.

At 10:00 am on the 24th, Meng Fan arrived at Shanghai’s south station.

“Sister Sun, thanks for everything.”

Bai Zhi’s assistant came to pick Meng Fan up.

Bai Zhi and Su Qing Cen needed Meng Fan’s help to perform sand art for their MVs, so they had scheduled to meet up together. It was easier to film that way, and it saved Meng Fan, who was still a college student, some time.

They also wanted to gather and talk although it hadn’t been long since they last met.
