0135, the light of Guoman

Comics is a popular art form that people like to see, which brings more fun to people's lives with its exaggerated techniques, concise strokes, and rich content.

As of the end of last year, the number of monthly active users in Huaxia's Internet comic market reached 65 million, an increase of 30.83% over the previous year.

From the perspective of users, the overall payment ability is stronger, the gender ratio is close to balance, and young users are the mainstream, resulting in the cyclical nature of the industry with the replacement of holidays and the start of school.

From the perspective of the industry pattern, the industry's leading Penguin Comics still firmly occupies the top spot, followed by Quick Comics, Watch Comics and gradually catch up with Penguin Comics.

But......

June 16 at 12 p.m.

A news released by Penguin Comics in the official microcircle has dealt a heavy blow to fast comics and comics.

There is only one sentence in this news: Congratulations to Chaoyun Duyu on breaking one million sales on the first day!

At first glance, it doesn't seem like anything special.

However, if you look at a statistic, you can see why the fast broadcast comics and the comics are said to have suffered a heavy blow.

The domestic Internet comics, the record for the first day of sales of single-volume comics, was set by the MD company of the United States of America at 450,000.

Chaoyun and Dusk Rain not only broke the record, but also more than doubled it.

Originally, I broadcast comics quickly, read comics, and finally negotiated the copyright of some comics with MD Company, and was able to wrestle with Penguin Comics in the domestic comics market.

Now, I don't know where to kill a Chinese comic, the sales are unbeatable, occupying the first place on the lists, and even a few American comics that are super popular in China are not opponents, and the traffic was snatched away by Penguin Comics all at once.

This wrist was about to be wrenched, and Penguin Comics suddenly changed to a strong man up, you said, this makes it easy to broadcast comics, see how to play comics.

It's not that all comic content will be seen if it's good, often a lot of content is very good, but because your channel is not good, many people can't see it, and you can't let everyone see it just by going to bookstores and book newspapers.

Internet comics have become a new battlefield for major comic companies, and China's state-owned country has 1.3 billion Internet users, accounting for 70% of the total population, which is a highly effective channel for publicity.

In fact, whether it is color or black and white, no matter what form it is, what is more important is persistence and market share, how to make IP formation, how to make sales high, how to make the author well-fed, how to let others be assistants, how to see the form of the market, and how to make a comic do well, is the most important.

At this time.

Quick comics, editor-in-chief's office.

"Head, I found out, this Fengyun comic has a fairy comic magazine, and it is on sale online and offline at the same time. ”

One of the editors in charge of Kuaibo Comics put the information he had just collected on his desk.

The editor-in-chief was silent for a moment and said, "Is there a fairy qi magazine that has been newly opened recently? ”

The editor in charge shook his head and said, "No, the predecessor of this fairy magazine is the monthly magazine, which is the magazine that publishes and serializes the cross-border king, and their comic studio has only been established for less than half a month." ”

The editor-in-chief frowned and said, "Is the news accurate?

The editor-in-charge said with great certainty: "100% accurate, the office of their magazine was still in the suburbs a month ago, and it was also recently moved back to the city, and the comic studio recruitment information released on June 5th." ”

The editor-in-chief sighed and said, "It seems that I have been preparing for a long time to enter the comic industry." ”

After a pause, he asked again: "What about Chaoyun Duyu's personal information, have you found it?"

The editor in charge smiled awkwardly and replied: "I forgot to tell you, in fact, this 'Chaoyun Dusk Rain' is the 'Cross-border Heavenly King', which should be to avoid using the same name and copyright ownership problems." ”

When the editor-in-chief heard this, he exclaimed: "What!"

The editor in charge continued: "I was also startled at the time, thinking it was hype or something, and after I checked it, I found out that the cross-border king had posted a single chapter of recommended Fengyun comics on all of his own, by the way, he also posted a microcircle recommendation Fengyun comics in the microcircle. ”

The editor-in-chief muttered: "I write and draw comics, and I don't delay at both ends, and they are the top works in the industry." ”

The editor in charge couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a god." ”

————

"The picture integrates the characteristics of ink painting, which is very expressive and meaningful. ”

"It's different from the rivers and lakes, it's amazing. ”

"The setting of the two protagonists is very novel. ”

"This is the comic style of our Huaxia country, and I finally don't have to watch American comics anymore. ”

"I hope this is the beginning of the rise of Guoman, don't succeed, lose. ”

......

The hot online and offline sales of Fengyun comics have also attracted attention outside the circle, and many media have reported on them.

The title is:Online writers cross borders,As soon as you make a move, you will shock the entire comic industry,That's what Guoman should look like!

Don't underestimate these media, the people they cover are quite extensive.

And, most importantly, this topic has already caused heated discussions at home and abroad, and even the comic giant American State MD company on Blue Star is paying attention.

Topic discussions, publicity and promotion have made the popularity of the two pen names "Cross-border Heavenly King" and "Chaoyun Dusk Rain" soar.

So much so that those who watched Chaoyun Duyu but didn't watch the cross-border king hurriedly went to buy a copy and came back to see it, or those who watched the cross-border king but didn't see the Chaoyun Dusk rain quickly went to buy a comic and came back to see.

For a while, books and comic books were sold well, and it can be said that both blossomed.

Zheng Rong, who was in the Xianqi Magazine, couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

There are two main reasons why it has sparked heated discussions.

1. The god-level author of the online literature industry crossed over to the comic industry.

2. Superb painting skills, very ornamental painting style, and fascinating plot.

The cross-border king has gained a foothold in the online literature industry, becoming the best-selling author since the Internet, and now he has crossed over to the comic industry, but he has received a lot of attention.

In addition,The development of Guoman,In the early days, it was mainly based on ink and shadow puppetry,After the United States entered the domestic comic market and created good results,It began to transform,Take the cartoon style and imitate the two routes of American comic style,The characteristics of American comics,It is bright colors、Clear storyboard、Muscle、 The special visual style with strong action lines, the extensive style of painting is mostly realistic, and there are exaggerated deformations based on realism, and the painting style is unique, realistic and beautiful, with both hard lines and exquisite pictures, which forms a sharp contrast with the United States.

There is also a very key point, that is, after reading the Fengyun comics, Yun Feng found some problems in them.

For example, the plot of Fengyun comics is not driven by comic Chinese dialogues and characters, but more like a collection of text-based description pictures, which reduces a lot of substitution, a feeling of reading comics, and it is difficult to reflect the psychology of the characters.

These problems were unpredictable when the original author was serialized.

But......

For Yunfeng, these problems can be avoided.

Don't forget.

What is Yunfeng's main business?

Written.

Dialogue, character character, character psychology, sense of substitution or something, is the best.

That's it.

In addition, Yun Feng also made slight changes to the plot, force, and characters of 123 parts, making the plot logical reasonable, the force does not collapse, and the characters are fuller.

In this way, it adds a lot of color to Fengyun comics.

All in all, in short, it is on fire, and it is even called "the light of Guoman" by industry insiders.

However, as the saying goes, some people are happy and some people are sad.
