Chapter Forty-Eight: The Villain Who Adds Drama to Himself
To be reasonable, as a pioneering work of a classified theme, its significance is extraordinary, it is not just the first.
It's a process of starting from scratch, and it's always easier to follow the herd than to innovate!
It's like a magical beautiful girl created a new genre, the magical girl series, its popularity has triggered many cartoonists to follow suit, just a comic, it has given many cartoonists a new direction of creation.
Sailor Moon in the previous life, its plot is really average now, and the backward setting has not kept up with the trend.
In addition, many magical girl works appeared later, enriching the choices of comic fans, magical girl Naye, magical girl Madoka, magical girl Illya, is this a zombie?
These are all excellent works that come from behind.
continues to deliver nutrients to the theme of magical girls, and the constantly added settings will also improve the initial simple setting, which also makes many fans addicted to this theme.
Without Sailor Moon, there might not be any of these great titles, and even if it's outdated, fans will still remember it as the creator of magical girls.
Because it was once a king, too!
Now, in the Daya manga industry, the first Tanmei work has appeared, and it does not appear in traditional manga magazines, but on his pikapika comic network.
This is of great help to Pikapika, which is currently struggling to move forward, just like a traveler in the desert, encountering an oasis.
As a comic editor, Yan Zhi can't judge whether such a work has commercial value because her professional level is not enough, but as a comic fan, she made it clear that she likes this comic.
Comics, as long as it's funny, it's enough.
Xia Ziyu felt that in the king of comics, the bottle editor-in-chief of Shueisha was really right.
The plot in "Takuya and Xiao Wujun" is vivid and interesting, the background setting of the characters is dramatic, the plot interaction is relaxed and powerful, and the rhythm is very good, even Xia Ziyu was provoked to want to continue watching.
These are enough to show that this comic is interesting.
As long as it's interesting, he will sign a contract for this comic, as for what Yan Zhi is worried about, it may trigger public opinion in the society, so it's better, he hasn't worried about it at all, he has the uncle of the director of the Entertainment and Culture Administration as a backer, and he is not afraid of 404.
This comic is also completely out of bounds, and when the interaction between Takuya and Xiao Wujun teases the kitten in the reader's heart, it stops just right, Xia Ziyu believes that the author's ability to control the plot must be very good.
If such a work cannot be signed, then what other work can be signed? He had no idea how many rejections Miyazaki had suffered before submitting her submission to pikapika.
As for whether Tanmei can be liked by comic fans in the Federation, it is clear from Yan Zhi's comments that this comic has at least gained one fan. Oh, it's two, Xia Ziyu also likes it very much, although Xia Ziyu of the earth has seen a lot of works, but it is not Xia Ziyu of the Great Asia Federation after all, what he left Xia Ziyu is only the memory of the earth.
As I said before, due to the long-term military style on this planet, the people of this world lack entertainment cells, and many people of the older generation have maintained the previous style, old and strict.
Everything that goes against common sense will be magnified and even investigated.
However, in the current era of open society and entertainment first, there is nothing more important than the development of entertainment, and many unconventional works have come out one by one, and people's acceptance is increasing day by day.
Even the workers' mouths, which were once in a uproar, have survived silently, surviving in the gap between the association and the entertainment bureau, and have not been eliminated.
Young people have a blind obedience mentality towards everything that dares to break the rules, thinking that this is cool!
Even works of the Gongkou type can be listed, and Tanmei is nothing.
Since this is the case, it is impossible for him to let go of this manga, he passed the review of "Takuya and Xiao Wujun", and then sent a contract negotiation station to the author.
After all, comics are different from novels, and its creation threshold is higher, the creation cycle is longer, and it requires more professionalism.
Every cartoonist needs to have an editor, and before drawing the original manuscript, the cartoonist should discuss the storyboard and plot with his editor, unlike novels, where the editor's role is very low.
Xia Ziyu decided to be the editor of Akiko's name himself, because he found that Daya's manga circle did not seem to have the habit of doing storyboards, and he wanted to make manga artists aware of the importance of storyboards.
As long as the king of comics starts serialization and enters the plot of creating comics, the cartoonists in this world will know that they must do a good storyboard before drawing the original manuscript, which can not only quickly see the effect of their work, but also improve the speed of drawing the original manuscript later.
He is ready to use his senior assistant experience to help Miyazaki Akiko control the quality of this comic, her drawing skills are very good, and the drawing style is also very suitable for such a story, but she does not do a very good job in storyboarding, or this is a shortcoming in the current industry, even traditional manga artists do not realize that storyboarding can enhance the expressiveness of the picture.
……
"A total of 130 yuan, 150 yuan for you, 20 for change, please take it, welcome to visit next time." ”
Akiko Miyazaki works at a convenience store during the holidays, this is to help make ends meet, she always has to draw manga at home without work, after all, her manga has not passed the serialization.
Maintaining a business smile all day made her facial nerves a little stiff.
If she could, she would like to sit at the table and draw the comics she liked, but then her sister's salary would not be able to support the two sisters' expenses, and the ink would cost money, and the manuscript paper would also cost money.
A penny is hard for the two sisters, she is still attending a professional school, and the tuition fee of the professional school is not cheap, so working part-time during the holidays can support the family.
"I heard that your comic was rejected by the magazine again. ”
A nasty voice walked in next to her, and she turned her head, not wanting to see a nasty face too.
But the nasty voice relentlessly sounded again, "Hey, don't pretend you didn't hear it, the work of the top student was rejected by all the comic clubs, it's really ridiculous~"
A girl who wears the same convenience store uniform as her, with a mocking face, just like the villain female character in the comics.
'When did I provoke her?'
As a comic professional college, it is natural that there are in-school competitions such as comic competitions, and she won the first prize in the 'Newcomer Cup' competition held by the school in the third grade.
And the one next to him is the second prize winner.
In this world, there are those who hate the rich, those who hate the United States, and those who hate talents, Miyazaki Akiko feels that she has at least two things, if she is not a poor person, she estimates that she will have to occupy them all.
This girl's name is Rokuka Machiko, and her appearance is actually not ugly, but the hanging horns and eyes destroy the overall facial features, which makes people think that she is sour and mean, but this also happens to be her character.
With the same poor family, she was very withdrawn in the comics professional school, and she didn't like to talk to people, but because of her excellent grades, she always prided herself on thinking that everyone else was a bunch of idiots.
But Akiko Miyazaki, who had been low-key before, actually won the first prize in the 'Rookie Cup' made her psychologically unbalanced, why did her classmates with ordinary grades win the first prize, but she can only be second if she is more excellent.
In addition, when she later saw that an executive of the sponsor of the "Rookie Cup" was talking to Miyazaki Akiko cordially, her brain as a cartoonist began to make up a series of shady operations and unspoken rules.
It is believed that Akiko Miyazaki won the first prize by relying on some ulterior PY transactions.
Well, she was jealous that Akiko Miyazaki, who was also poor in the family, was so beautiful, and when she had average grades, Machiko Rokka could still maintain her sense of superiority, but after the 'Rookie Cup', this sense of superiority was ruthlessly destroyed, which hit her self-esteem.
Akiko Miyazaki kept a low profile but didn't want to attract attention, after all, she also had to work part-time, so she didn't have enough energy when she was in school, so she coped with it casually.
However, the 'Rookie Cup' is a tournament with prize money, and when it comes to money, she doesn't deal with it casually, and the result of her all-out effort is that she won the first place.
As a result, he was targeted by this classmate who thought he was full of superiority.
I'm sure you've been targeted by a wild fox. ’
But the more you ignore her, the more she will show her presence by hanging around you, and she will come to do the same part-time job as herself, and most villains will not add drama to themselves like this.
Akiko Miyazaki pouted, "Second place, my manga was rejected by the publishing house, what does it matter to you?" After speaking, she continued to ignore her and sorted out the chewing gum on the shelf.
"You!" Hearing that she was actually called the second place, this kind of deliberate insult made her angry, and sneered: "Hehe, the internship in the senior year is to have a work serialized, if there is no work serialized, it is unqualified, I will say, your evil story is a dead end, and you want to use this kind of unpopular means to win the attention of the judges, which will definitely not work outside the school." If I use the royal plot game, my comics will definitely not lose!"
Hearing this vicious slander, Miyazaki Akiko's hand in sorting out the shelves suddenly clenched, but let go again, she took a long breath, and then slowly exhaled, "How can people like you understand my comics, I have never had an opponent." Ignoring her, she went into the locker room and changed into civilian clothes, and she got off work.
I bought eggs and vegetables on sale as usual, and when I got home, "I'm back~"
Then she still went into the kitchen to chop and wash vegetables, ready to cook, and suddenly, she seemed to think of something.
