Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Mr. Sleepy had got in touch with Penguin Animation Network and QiDian after confirming his collaboration with Meng Fan. Coincidentally, the editor Penguin Animation sent to match scripts with Mr. Sleepy had been Yi Xin from the campus genre group. Indeed, Penguin Animation Network had classified him under campus thriller.

The signing process was very fast. Yi Xing had booked a direct flight to Shanghai and met up with the people from Qi Dian. Together, along with Mr. Sleepy, they signed the contract together.

After signing the contract, Meng Fan’s account profile updated, listing “There’s A Spirit Underground” to his new publications.

Mr. SLeepy was a man who was proactive in everything he did except for when it came to updating his novel. After seeing Meng Fan’s first three chapters, he already began to urge Meng Fan to upload it several times. Yesterday, they set the official serialization time for 8:00 pm, but Meng Fan did not foresee he would have a basketball tournament during this time, so he urgently pushed it to 9:00 pm.

The upload time was flexible except Meng Fan and Mr. Sleepy had arranged for a release conference by way of a live stream.

A normal person wouldn’t pass up the opportunity for a release conference, but Meng Fan and Mr. Sleepy weren’t ordinary people.

Meng Fan slipped out of the basketball court and left the school. He took a shower after getting home and got in contact with Mr. Sleepy to confirm their 9:00 pm stream.

Mr. Sleepy began to update his Weibo and other channels, while Meng Fan sent a group message to several different chat rooms. It was very generous of 8th station to also provide Meng Fan with a spot on the recommended list, on the home page too.

After all, Meng Fan could be considered as a big-name streamer, and Mr. Sleepy was very well known on the 8th station as well.

When all the preparations were made, they logged in the channel at 8:55 and went live at 59.

“You made it?”

“Mr. Sleepy, you should update your novel, there’s no more toilet paper left in the village outhouse!”

“Hahaha, rushing him the moment he logs on, only you diehard sleepy bugs can do this!”

“Mr. Sleepy, it’s fine if you delay your novel, but even postponing the stream for an hour… Are you sure you weren’t a mop in your last life?”

“Looking forward to the serialization!”

“I loved Meng boss’s illustrations for “There’s A Spirit Underground”, so I’m really looking forward to the manga adaptation!”

“I’m not trying to suck up here, but when I saw Meng boss draw the illustrations I had a premonition that he would be responsible for the adaptation as well!”

“Mr. Sleepy used to post a lot of illustrations from other artists, but they were all missing something!”

“Hahaha I’m not trying to call out any artist, I’m just saying that all artists are garbage except for Meng boss!”

“Do you have to be so hardcore? Hahaha!”

“Before watching the stream, I had seen some of the adaptation content. I’m very faithful in Meng boss’s drawing abilities!”

“His drawing style is absolutely perfect!”

After they went on the air, he used his laptop to log into the profile of the Penguin Animation Network and sent out the first chapter that he had scanned and uploaded. Then he spoke, “Hello everyone, the manga version for “There’s a Spirit Underground” is now officially uploaded, and began its serialization!”

Then he returned to the homepage with the manga and showed it to everyone. Then he opened the manga to show the first page on stream, which was the cover page. Aside from the name of the book was the titles of the creative staff.

Assistant: XQiang

XQiang, of course, was Da Qiang. The X didn’t mean it was a cross, but an unknown number.

Meng Fan asked him why it was an unknown number, but hearing Da Qiang said it represented Wei Zhi Xue, Meng Fan was convinced.*

*The characters for the unknown in Chinese is Wei Zhi, which sounds exactly like the first 2 characters of Wei Zhi Xue’s name.*

After introducing the main creator for the adaptation, Meng Fan spoke up, “This so-called press conference is actually an event for the live serialization. The event is simple, you guys collect, while me and Mr. Sleepy draw prizes.”

“For every 10,000 collectors, we will give away a small prize. Every 100,000 will net in a grand prize.” Meng Fan pointed the camera at the table stacked full of gifts. From the stash, he grabbed a book and said, “The first prize is the first volume of “There’s A Spirit Underground”. For the first volume, we will give out 10.”

He put down the book and refreshed the interface. There were already 6000 collectors. After refreshing two more times, the 10,000 quotas were reached and they began to draw names.

“The second prize was a copy of “Guide To Campus RoMANce”, also ten draws. Don’t ask me why I’m giving out copies of my own manga at the press conference for “There’s A Spirit Underground”, and don’t ask me if I’m giving out these mangas because I printed too many and couldn’t gift all of them.”

“The third prize is the physical copies of volumes 1-3 for “There’s A Spirit Underground”. This will also be gifted 10 times.”

“The fourth prize… Rest assured it won’t be a novel or manga.” Meng Fan took out a figurine and brought it into the video. “This is the special figure of the male lead character from “There’s A Spirit Underground” that Mr. Sleepy had specially made. The workmanship is top-notch, you guys can take a look. There will be ten of these.”

“The fifth prize will be a custom T-shirt from “There’s A Spirit Underground”. There will also be ten of these.”

“The sixth prize… hehe, it’s a good one. Mr. Sleepy specifically found a five-piece costume of the spirit fox maiden from the novel. This was a last-minute addition by Mr. Sleepy, so I don’t have a sample, but I can show you guys the design drawings, which were realized very well. If you are chosen and you’re a cute girl, I won’t say anything, but if you’re a cute boy, then, hehe congrats… Your path to crossdressing has just opened!”

“The seventh prize…”

Meng Fan and Mr. Sleepy, or mostly just Mr. Sleepy had put a lot of effort into preparing the gifts. They were mostly customized, and the price was not cheap.

The Penguin Animation Network’s profile for them grew rapidly, with Meng Fan starting a new draw just as he finished another.

When Meng Fan serialized their series, “Guide To Campus RoMANce”, he had gained 60,000 collectors through the stream alone, so today’s situation can’t even compare. Mr. Sleepy’s fans were here today, and they had over 160,000 viewers online. Mr.Sleepy had pulled over 50,000 netizens.

Soon, the collectors reached 100,000, and it was time for the 10th prize, also the first grand prize.

“The grand prize is here, Mr.Sleepy says the grand prize will be simple. Cash, for 10 people, 888 HXB per person.” Meng Fan said, “I will contact Mr. Sleepy and let him do the draws. Oh right, Mr.Sleepy just said, if we can reach 200,000 collectors today, he will give out five extra cash prizes of 1888 HXB in addition to the grand prize.”

After the announcement, he connected Mr. Sleepy to his stream and waited.

“When the hell did I say that?!”

Mr. Sleepy silently cursed to himself. After he was connected, he waved his hands. “Meng boss also said he will give out five extra gifts, worth 1888 HXB as well!”

Who doesn’t know how to be a troll?!

Hearing this, Meng Fan cursed silently, but he continued to smile and nod.

It’s just giving out coins, he’ll do it!

Either way, the [Wealth Distribution Cherub] task was still present, and Meng Fan couldn’t wait to collect more collector points to finish the [Collector of Millions] task.

He had originally felt that this task would take a long time, but it seems to be alright now.

First of all, the task required his online manga to receive 1 million collectors, but it did not limit it to one publication. Hence, the collectors for “There’s A Spirit Underground” would count as well.

“Guide To Campus RoMANce” has a current collector count of 300,000. After all, Meng Fan did not promote it during his stream, so this number was still quite gratifying.

Of course, there were only so many viewers in a stream channel. Although there were new viewers everyday, it was hard to increase the collection count after reaching a certain number.

But with the addition of a new manga, everything would be different. The netizens who have already added his novel to their collections could continue to add and provide more experience for Meng Fan’s mission.

The rewards from the task [Collector of Millions] was still very desirable. Drawing skills, scriptwriting, the set design will all receive a +3 boost. To Meng Fan, their role was quite large.

The sooner he finished, the sooner he could improve his manga creating skills.
