Chapter 190: Keep improving
Whether it's a novel or a comic, it must have a selling point, otherwise how can the comic be sold?
What is the selling point of "Slam Dunk"?
Li Mingyang is ready to start from the selling point, persuading his old classmate and boss to give up the launch of "Slam Dunk" and promote the existing popular works instead, at least the existing popular works have basic fans.
Because of preconceived notions, Li Mingyang's mind is full of how to pick thorns.
The character design of "Slam Dunk" is too rough and not aesthetic at all, can this sell rot?
The protagonist Hana Sakuragi was rejected fifty times on behalf of white in junior high school.,What a sad life this is.,Are you sure that people with a glass heart will accept such a failed protagonist?
Hanging silk, hanging silk, no matter how you look at it, Sakuragi is a poor hanging silk, right?
The second protagonist Liu Chuanfeng is too brilliant, why does it feel a little noisy?
The more Li Mingyang looked, the more slots he had, after all, he wore colored glasses, and his advantages turned into disadvantages in his eyes.
"Slam Dunk" is a youth inspirational comic, its selling point is basketball, blood, chasing dreams, real, love is just an embellishment, who doesn't have a crush on a few girls or boys in their youth?
As long as the manga artist draws well, even if the protagonist Sakuragi is a bad boy who has no charm for girls in the manga, no one can suppress his demeanor outside the manga, and he is still widely loved by both male and female readers.
Sakuragi has a lot of shining points, he is arrogant, but he has the ability to be arrogant, and his arrogance is not annoying, on the contrary, it is very cute, didn't you find that many funny jokes in "Slam Dunk" are related to him?
In short, "Slam Dunk" is relaxed, the main theme remains the same, and a group of teenagers who love basketball are composing a song of youth.
A quarter of an hour later, Li Mingyang put down the outline of "Slam Dunk", and talked for another quarter of an hour, starting from the selling point of "Slam Dunk", analyzing the mainstream comics in today's comic market, and explaining that the market share of basketball comics is very small.
No matter what Li Mingyang said, Lin Tianbao's heart was as solid as a rock, but he did not interrupt Li Mingyang, seeking his position in his position, and he respected his old classmate and subordinate.
"Slam Dunk" is so hot on the earth, Lin Tianbao doesn't even launch it to see the market response, is this his style?
Maybe in the eyes of others, Lin Tianbao is bent on going his own way, but he will still stick to his opinion.
Li Mingyang said while observing the reaction of the old classmate, but the old classmate looked calm and unmoved, Li Mingyang could only sigh in his heart, he had tried his best, the old classmate was stubborn and wanted to hit a wall, and he couldn't stop it, right?
The boss will always be the boss, and it seems that he can only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.
Li Mingyang has already prepared for the worst in his heart, detouring for a few more months, and when the old classmates see the gap between reality and ideals, they will set sail again for new comics.
At this moment, Li Mingyang really doesn't have any hope for "Slam Dunk".
"I'm done. ”
Li Mingyang said in the end, his voice became smaller and smaller, because he was self-aware, and no matter how much he said, he was wasting his lips and tongue.
Lin Tianbao smiled and asked, "Is there anything else you want to add?"
Li Mingyang shook his head, it's not that he didn't add, but he said that his old classmates didn't listen!
Lin Tianbao patted Li Mingyang on the shoulder and said: "Fame, there was no market for basketball comics before, it doesn't mean that there will be no market in the future, don't you worry about my ability to make up stories? You don't have to think about anything now, just concentrate on drawing "Slam Dunk", I will recruit you if you lack people, I will buy you what you lack, I only need four words - keep improving!"
On Earth, cartoonist Inoue Yuhiko is a god with the painting of "Slam Dunk", and the comic "Slam Dunk" has also witnessed the growth of Inoue Yuhiko, if the miracle of "Slam Dunk" can be replicated in this world, then Lin Tianbao can turn stones into gold, so that a rookie cartoonist in the comic industry can transform into a comic god!
Yes, Li Mingyang is the first comic god that Lin Tianbao wants to cultivate, as the so-called fat water does not flow into outsiders' fields, if "Slam Dunk" can be completed smoothly, and Li Mingyang forms his own unique painting style, then he is one of the royal cartoonists handpicked by Lin Tianbao, and he will be responsible for adapting the published novels into comics for Lin Tianbao in the future.
Of course, these are Lin Tianbao's ideas, and it depends on whether "Slam Dunk" can stand up in this world?
"There's no need to recruit people, since you are so optimistic about "Slam Dunk", I will go all out and draw until you are satisfied. ”
Li Mingyang understands that only by making the old classmates impeccable, the old classmates will not make excuses for failure.
"Let's go, I'll show you the office. ”
In the blink of an eye, Lin Tianbao took Li Mingyang to an empty office and asked, "Do you see that you are satisfied here?" If you are satisfied, then you can start to decorate it, and what equipment you need to purchase, just tell me. ”
The office here is more than 20 square meters, and there is nothing except a desk and office chair, which can be described as extremely simple, but it is exactly what Li Mingyang wants.
Li Mingyang nodded and said, "Satisfied." ”
Lin Tianbao smiled slightly: "It's good to be satisfied, you should think about how to arrange this office, and then make a list for me." ”
"Good. ”
I am in charge of my office, and Li Mingyang's mind has flashed several layout plans.
Lin Tianbao smiled and left the office, he didn't go home directly, but went to the general manager's office.
"Knock knock!"
"Please come in!"
Lin Tianbao pushed the door out, and the first thing that caught his eye was a mountain of gifts, "Wow, so many gifts!"
Yu Qingya smiled: "Don't be envious, the gift is a double share, you and I have a share." ”
"Rats, they're so polite, they're tired enough to go out and play, and they want to bring us gifts. ”
The gifts are basically the specialties of Sichuan Province and the mountain city, and there is no need to ask Lin Tianbao to guess that these gifts are given by the employees.
"That's what I said before, but it's everyone's heart, and I'll take it. ”
The two bosses invited the employees to go out for a trip, and the employees also thought about the two bosses when they played, and bought souvenirs and souvenirs when they saw them, adding up to nearly 100 kinds.
There are too many gifts and trouble, and moving home is not a small project, only a little one day.
In the evening, the two CEOs invited the employees to dinner, one was to wash the dust for the eighteen employees who returned from travel, and the other was to welcome Li Mingyang to join their big family.
A dinner was enjoyable, which also shortened the distance between Li Mingyang and the old employees.
The next day, Li Mingyang officially put himself into the work, he knew how good Mr. Lin's excellence was, and in the next few days, he heard Mr. Lin say the most is "take it back and repaint".
The protagonist of "Slam Dunk", Hua Sakuragi, was very sad to confess that he was rejected fifty times, and Li Mingyang had an ominous premonition that the number of rejections of his manuscript might exceed this number.
Just when Li Mingyang was constantly looking for the feeling painting "Slam Dunk" and striving to achieve the excellence that his old classmates said, the time had quietly come to the fifteenth, which was also the day when the studio's contracted singer Su Man launched his second single.
