When Xu Wenhui cooperated with the TV station, he did not leave the comics behind. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Xu Wenhui did several big things during this period, the first thing was to start a newspaper on February 1.

Newspapers in the island nation are bound to publish cartoons, most of which are four-panel comics.

Sometimes it satirizes social phenomena, and sometimes it depicts the joys and sorrows of ordinary people, like a cooling agent, which has resonated with many readers!

As an ancient form of artistic expression, the four-panel comic cannot but be said to be a miracle - its vitality is limitless. In the 80s, the island nation's new comics entered the Chinese mainland, and at the beginning, works such as "Astro Boy", "Forest Emperor", and "Robot Cat" stole most of the market for old-fashioned comics led by "Master of Humor" magazine, and then "Dragon Ball" and "Saint Seiya" intensified, and old-fashioned comics have faced extinction.

However, in this wave of comic reform, only four-panel comics stand still, and they seem to have been injected with new vitality by new comics, which is not strong. To this day, four-panel comics based on games and anime content are becoming more and more popular.

That's why this comic newspaper was serialized in the form of a daily magazine, called "Second World: Manga Daily"!

Xu Wenhui wants to serialize four-panel comics, but it is a question of what four-panel comics to serialize, in fact, "Crayon Xiaoxin" is the most suitable, because he is the representative of four-panel comics.

But because "Crayon Xiaoxin" has been serialized in magazines, Xu Wenhui does not want to shift his position.

In this way, Xu Wenhui checked what the most popular four-panel comic is.

As a representative of newspaper manga, the first thing to introduce is Hasegawa Machiko's "Mrs. Salamander".

The manga began to be published shortly after the war and continued to be serialized in the Asahi Shimbun for a quarter of a century until 1974, four years earlier. The cartoon is centered on Mrs. Salamander, a housewife, and revolves around the humorous and cheerful life of her family of 7, which truly reflects the living conditions of the popular people in the island country.

In short, the cheerful, kind, and slightly impatient personality of the protagonist, Mrs. Salamander, is the key to her popularity. After the newspaper was serialized, it was also made into a cartoon on television.

In addition, "Mrs. Salamander" often cleverly quotes social phenomena and fashion trends, which plays a role in reflecting the state of the world.

After Xu Wenhui figured it out, the name of an anime flashed in his mind, "Cherry Maruko".

In 84, "Cherry Maruko", which is the same family manga as "Mrs. Salamander", monopolized the viewership of TV cartoons, which is an animated work based on the 70s of the 20th century and depicts the daily life of elementary school girl Maruko!!

This cartoon is depicted in the contemporary era, and it is the same family cartoon as "Mrs. Salamander", so Xu Wenhui simply made this cartoon out.

But this animation Xu Wenhui is better to find the original cartoonist to draw, because the work is based on the author's childhood life in 1974, and everything in it is full of nostalgia from the 70s!

The story takes place in Shimizu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, an island country that is easily accessible, rich in fishing, and adjacent to Mt. Fuji.

It's a pity that Miki Miura, the author of the creation of Maruko, was born in 65 and is only twelve years old now, Xu Wenhui can't find anyone, so he can only use the old method to draw the storyboard, outline, and character design by himself, and then draw a few words, and get the style and essence out for his manga artists to draw.

This cartoon is drawn in the form of a daily magazine, and Xu Wenhui certainly will not drag himself into this quagmire from which he cannot extricate himself.

It's just that in the end, I looked for it.,But I found that no one is suitable for drawing this comic.,Araki Fei Luhiko、Shinohara Chie、Saito Chie and Shimizu Reiko Four,Although they are all famous for drawing girl manga,But their works basically don't have a warm painting style like "Cherry Maruko".,It's either gorgeous or bloody!!

Tetsuo Hara's manga style is full of masculine beauty, so it is even more inappropriate.

The only one left that is more in line with Anda Chong has been haunted by two comics, and it is estimated that he will die of exhaustion if he finds him again.

The only one left that is suitable is Rumiko Takahashi, Xu Wenhui will give this comic to her temporarily, anyway, the copyright is in Xu Wenhui's hands and then hand it over to her when he meets a more suitable cartoonist!

・・・・・・・・

However, it will be some time before the manga daily is actually published, so at least we have to let Manga artists such as Rumiko Takahashi draw the manga and get enough serialized issues!!

So Xu Wenhui just got the shelf out and then handled the second thing.

Xu Wenhui said to Takayuki Tsuruta and other editors, "We want to have our own publishing house!"

"President, the publishing house needs a lot of money, not to mention the copyright of the work and the cartoonist, which is worth more than our comic club. Takayuki Tsuruta said worriedly.

Other editors also buzzed about it, and of course they knew the benefits of having their own publishing house, so that the company could be self-sufficient and not have to give money to others, but it cost a lot of money.

Xu Wenhui smiled lightly, "You don't have to worry about money, you just need to cooperate." ”

Wasn't the original 10 million Hong Kong dollars prepared for today?

The acquisition of comic strips in the island country and Xiangjiang, as well as advertising, and semi-assistant contests cost less than one-third of the money.

So Xu Wenhui thinks that he is not short of money.

It's easy to say anything if you have money, and nothing will be a problem.

Under the leadership of Takayuki Tsuruda, Xu Wenhui visited more than a dozen publishing houses, and because of the fact that there was Haruki Kadokawa, the head snake, the publishing house was determined not long after, and finally selected a medium-sized publishing house!

In the future, if the sales of magazines or newspapers in the second world increase on a large scale, they can also replace with larger-scale publishing houses, and the cost of printing large quantities will inevitably be reduced a lot, but at that time, Xu Wenhui's magazine and newspaper sales were more than one million per week.

It's just that unlike Xiangjiang, the land of this publishing house still belongs to the original owner here, and Xu Wenhui really doesn't have so much money to buy.

Originally, Xu Wenhui thought that his money was more than enough, but who knew that this money was really not enough.

And because he is a foreigner, Xu Wenhui was also slaughtered a little, and this medium-sized publishing house alone spent more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars.

Based on the current exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the yen, it is the price of tens of millions of yen, which directly leads to Xu Wenhui's liquidity shrinking a lot!
