038 Rare comics
As a Chinese, Meng Du has a natural affection for traditional Chinese culture such as ink painting. However, what he didn't expect was that someone would be able to use this time-honored traditional painting technique in a popular entertainment product like comics.
And it's so seamlessly and flawlessly combined!
If you use two words to describe Meng Du's mood at this time, it is: surprised!
If you use four words to describe Meng Du's mood at this time, it is: five bodies to the ground!
Meng Du followed the link to Station P, saved the figure of Uesugi Kenshin in the Qin and Han dynasties, and made it into the desktop of computers and mobile phones. After that, he continued to browse Qin Han's tweets, and learned that the old Qin Ren teacher was participating in a painting competition sponsored by the Dongying Cultural Department.
After watching Qin Han's imposing painting video at NICONICO, he came to the official website and voted for himself without hesitation.
Immediately, Meng Du found that the old Qin teacher's use of "transcendence, transcendence, miraculous skills, combination of modern and ancient", etc., countless beautiful words to describe the ink style comics are not exaggerated, actually ranked second in the vote.
"Are all Dongying Azhai blind?" Meng Du was very dissatisfied, "The number one "Thunder and Lightning Swordsman" is just a routine bloody battle manga, and it can't be compared with the old Qin teacher's groundbreaking and artistic ink style comics at all!"
In this world, the animation industry in Huaxia is also developing very well, domestic comic magazines such as "Picture Book King" and "Manyou" are selling well, and the Huaxia version of the boy JUMP - "Anime Chronicles" published by Shueisha also has more than 3 million sales.
Therefore, Meng Du is mostly familiar with the serialized comics on JUMP, including "Thunderbolt Swordsman".
Mengdu, who was indignant about the voting results, immediately took action and posted the situation of the drawing contest in the True Love Building, as well as two paintings by Kansuke Yamamoto and Kenshin Uesugi.
After seeing it, the old houses of S1 were full of praise, and said that they would quickly spread this information and support the old Qin teacher with practical actions.
For a time, Qin Han's works became the hottest topic in the Chinese two-dimensional circle.
And after a period of fermentation, this kind of popularity crossed the ocean and came to Dongying, and finally fed back to the soaring votes of the Qin and Han dynasties.
Qin Han suddenly found that there were many more Chinese messages on his Twitter, such as "Famous Wall Bar to visit here", "S1 sightseeing group said porcelain", "NGA two-dimensional National Geographic sent a congratulatory message" and so on.
Qin Han didn't expect that with Huaxia's assistance, his votes had increased significantly, and there was a faint trend of surpassing Toshima Ryuzo.
He tweeted in Chinese to thank fans from Huaxia for their support.
"Oh, Chinese is so slippery, could it be that the old Qin teacher is actually a Chinese?"
"Probably not. However, looking at the grammar of his pen name and the name of his works, he should be a Chinese who is proficient in Chinese. ”
"Oh, from today onwards, I will be a brain-dead fan of Old Qinren's teacher!"
"As a fan, why don't you go and canvass for Lao Qinren's teacher? What are you swiping Twitter! You are a pseudo-fan, be ashamed!"
In this way, Qin Han's votes soared all the way, and soon surpassed Toshima Ryuzo, and steadily maintained the first place until the last moment of the deadline.
As for Toshima Ryuzo, although the small tricks he played were very effective in the early stage, he was powerless to follow, and in the end he was almost surpassed by Kentaro Miura.
Those arrogant fans of Toshima Ryuzo have now been slapped in the face, most of them have shrunk their eggs to keep them safe, no matter how no one @ will not reply, a small number of them stubbornly resist, either insisting that the competition is shady, Qin Han is not martial, or he is angry and scolded. But they can't make any big waves.
Qin Han's friends tweeted their congratulations, and the Cultural Affairs Department later personally came to the door to present the certificate. Although it is not of great value, it can be regarded as an affirmation of his creation.
Of course, the thing that made Qin Han happiest was that because of the rapid expansion of Huaxia's fan base, he finally completed the task ahead of schedule, and the number of Twitter followers reached 520,000, so he didn't have to climb the Tokyo Skytree.
"This is the quest reward?"
Qin Han took the legendary elf pencil with an appearance no different from an ordinary mechanical pencil, and looked at it carefully.
"Host, all you need to do is hold the Elven Pen and give it a drawing command in your head, and the Elven Pen will faithfully execute it. Don't look at it as a mechanical pencil, in fact, you can freely switch pencils, pens, brushes, watercolors, oil paintings, etc., different modes to meet all needs. Note that the attributes and skills of the Elf Pen are two-thirds of those of the host. ”
"Two-thirds?" Qin Han frowned, "In other words, it can't completely replace itself in painting, and can only complete some auxiliary work." ”
Of course, that's enough.
Because of the big secret of the system, even if Qin Han restarted commercial serialization in the future, he didn't really want to hire an assistant. Now that he has the elf pen, he can take care of all the work of his assistant, so that Qin Han will be less in danger of being secretly exposed.
Because of the original ink style comics and the impact of participating in the drawing competition, the popularity of the Qin and Han dynasties skyrocketed, and 18 fame points were accumulated.
He decided to celebrate with a ten-shot streak.
The law of conservation of character seems to have worked again, and this time, two of the ten cards that Qin Han drew out of the card pool were actually quite useful.
The first is a silver item card.
"Samsung Silver: Rare Comics. ”
Effect: After using this card, you can get a highly valuable comic. ”
Qin Han did not hesitate and used it immediately.
After the thin and light card of unknown material disappeared in his hand, a flash of light flashed, and an old comic with yellowed pages and a history of several decades appeared in Qin Han's hand.
The binding of this comic book is completely different from the current single book, and it should belong to the Akamoto manga decades ago, when the Toei manga industry was in its infancy.
Although the history of this world has gone in a different direction, it has still experienced a world war.
After the end of the war, Toei was short of materials, and paper was as expensive as food. In order to satisfy the entertainment needs of the common people and children, booksellers published comic books on cheap and inferior paper. In order to attract attention, the cover is mostly red and bright colors, so the manga of this period is called Akamoto manga.
And this red comic in Qin Han's hand is even more unusual.
Comic title: "New Treasure Island".
Author: Nanama Sakai.
Perhaps many people are not familiar with the name Sakai Nanachi. But if you mention Osamu Tezuka, you will show a look of sudden realization.
Sakai Nana, a veteran manga artist, once instructed Osamu Tezuka, and together they created "New Treasure Island", a great work that applied cinematic composition to manga for the first time and opened a new era!
