The protagonist of "Dragon Ball" is based on the classical masterpiece "Journey to the West", which was originally a good publicity stunt, and later the lawsuit with Huang Yulang, which soon swept the comic book industry.

Since its public release, it has published a four-episode album every month, and Dragon Ball has been the top seller of Dragon Ball, including Asia's largest manga country, and the readers of this manga are not only children, but also some young people in their twenties have become loyal readers of Dragon Ball.

According to the latest sales report, in Hong Kong, a city with a population of only 5 million, Dragon Ball has sold a terrifying 600,000 copies, which means that more than 10% of Hong Kong people read this manga.

This sales are much better than many best-selling authors, and even the most popular singer in Hong Kong is now selling this comic, which shows how attractive it is.

And not only in Hong Kong, but also in Taiwan, Yuben, Singapore and other places, the sales of "Dragon Ball" are also rising, although there is not such a terrifying proportion as Hong Kong, but it is definitely a well-deserved No.1 on the manga sales list.

In the past, because of the difficult life at Lizi's family, she would not go to watch movies or buy comics from time to time to pass the time, like other classmates, and she still wanted to help her family do something when she had time.

Since signing a contract with Phoenix Culture, I have received an advance salary, and I will have a salary every month, not only has I changed the place of residence for my family, but Li Zi also has pocket money that I can use at will.

After getting his first salary, Li Zi's first thought was to repay the people who helped him, Mo Fei, Huang Baiming and others didn't need Li Zi's help, and Xiao Li Zi's reward was to support them with his own actions.

bought a new record of Xu Guanjie and watched a movie directed by Huang Baiming, and the movies that Phoenix Culture is showing are all watched without falling. Then he also bought all the published parts of Mo Fei's "Dragon Ball" and became Mo Fei's most loyal reader.

In other words, "Dragon Ball" is really attractive, even if there is no relationship between Li Zi and Mo Fei, as long as you have read this comic, you are likely to seriously like this comic, and thus become a loyal reader, not to mention Li Zi, who is deeply gracious, is more brain-dead than a brain-dead fan.

Now I see that Mo Fei has a new comic character image made, and it is very different from the characters of "Dragon Ball", needless to say, you can also know that this is a brand new manga, as one of the people who is very close to Mo Fei, Li Zi has the conditions to have a sneak peek, let Mo Fei tell her this brand new story.

Mo Fei looked at the character image in Li Zi's hand, it was the first generation of pseudo-girls in the comic industry, and said that no matter what era the little girl is, she likes the surname more, this is a hazy love for a different surname, but it is not easy to express, so the dilemma caused, I don't know how many generations of little girls have been affected, no wonder there were so many little girls in the previous life who were fooled into "seeking eternal life", not without reason.

After sighing in his heart, he looked at Li Zi with an expectant look on his face and asked, "Do you like the image of this character?" ”

"Hmm" Xiao Lizi nodded, opened her eyes wide, and said, "This sister's green hair is so beautiful, and she looks very beautiful, I like it so much." ”

Mo Fei put the tableware in his hand on the shelf with empty water, and then went to wash the next one, while saying: "Hehe, this time you are mistaken, this green-haired person is actually a pseudo-girl, but I also think he is very beautiful." ”

"What does the pseudo-mother mean, does it have anything to do with the pretty boy?" Accidentally brought out a 21st century term, Xiao Lizi's brain immediately felt that his vocabulary was insufficient.

I can't tell her that the pseudo-mother is the state between a man and the second tail, Mo Fei's hand washing the dishes stopped, and said: "The pseudo-mother means a fake girl, that is, a boy's appearance, skin and other external characteristics are infinitely close to or even more than some girls, if you wear a skirt and a wig, the appearance is no different from a girl, but he is still a boy in essence."

"Boys?" After Li Zi understood the meaning of the pseudo-girl, her face was slightly red, probably because she was a little shy to choose a boy, and said, "Then why do you wear pink armor?" ”

Mo Fei had already washed the dishes at this time, wiped the countertop dry, and said, "Let's go, let's go outside, and I'll tell you this story." ”

The group of four came to the front hall on the first floor, and Mo Fei went to the study to bring a few pictures of the characters together and put them on the table, and sat down to tell the story of this comic.

Pointing to the twelve characters on one of them, he asked Li Zi, "Xiao Zi, have you heard of the zodiac signs, or the twelve constellations?" ”

Li Zi nodded and said, "Oh, I've heard that it's the things that those ghosts use to tell fortunes, and our classmates are playing that game." ”

Li Zi said that he understood, but he asked Xu Qing again, "Xiaoqing, do you know this, did you understand it when you were in the mainland?" ”

Xu Qing was very happy that Mo Fei could take care of his feelings, shook his head and nodded, and said, "I haven't been in contact with these before, but Xiao Zi has told me a lot in the past few days, and I generally understand." ”

With Xu Qing and Xu's mother here, Mo Fei and Li Zi also try to communicate in Mandarin as much as possible, so that Xu Qing's mother and daughter can also understand. Now Xu Qing's mother and daughter have been in Hong Kong for more than a week, and they can understand some local words in Hong Kong, such as ghosts, old beans, and strawberries.

"That's good, so that I won't be afraid that you won't understand when I say it." Mo Fei roughly thought about the rhythm of the story, and said: "The name of this story is 'Saint Seiya of the Goddess', and it is said that in the mythological era a long time ago, Athena, who ruled the earth, had eighty-eight of the bravest and most powerful warriors, and these warriors fought to defend the Sanctuary and Athena, so they were called 'Saint Seiya'.

And these saints are also divided into four levels according to their strength, namely the twelve golden saints with the zodiac signs as the guardian constellations, the twenty-four silver saints with the adjacent constellations of the zodiac as the guardian constellations, and the forty-eight bronze saints with other guardian constellations, and the four most powerful sun saints in ancient times.

Because Athena hates the use of weapons, these saints are dressed in materials made of orichalcum, silver star sand and Sanctuary crystals, refined by the most mysterious alchemists, and added Athena's blessing to synthesize the armor, also known as the holy clothes of the saints, which can make the energy of the saints to the extreme. Each set of sacred garments corresponds to one of the eighty-eight constellations, and only those who have the same guardian constellation as the sacred garments can carry the corresponding sacred garments on board.

Athena led the Saints to defeat Poseidon, the god of the sea, and destroyed Atlantis, the palace of the god of the sea; Suppressed Ares, the god of war, who started an endless battle between humans, expelled Apollo, the sun god full of ambition, and so on. But in the battles again and again, the saints also sacrificed a lot, and even the goddess Madonna died and had to rely on the method of reincarnation to return to the world. ”

This can be regarded as an explanation of the cause of the story, the attraction of mythological stories to teenagers is very strong, especially the stories that add characters such as goddesses, which can attract the most attention, Li Zi and Xu Qing are completely fascinated by what they heard, and Xu Mu is very interested on the side waiting for Mo Fei to continue to tell.

Mo Fei lit a cigarette and continued: "Time came to 1965, the goddess Athena was finally reincarnated, and the Pope had a premonition that Athena, who was still a baby, would have a disaster, so he found the most powerful and upright Sagittarius gold saint Seiya Aiolos in the Saint Seiya, and asked him to protect Athena's safety and make him his future heir, and the Gemini gold Saint Seiya Saga was as the assistant of Aiolos.

But Sachar's twin brother Garon is a vicious man who instigates Saga to kill the newborn goddess Athena and the Pope, and then take over the entire land controlled by Athena. In a fit of rage, Saga imprisoned his younger brother Garon in a water prison under the strait, but allowed Garon to inadvertently find and open Athena's seal of Poseidon the god of the sea, enter the palace of the god of the sea to awaken the god of the sea, and cooperate with the god of the sea to start a big conspiracy......

Zachar was controlled by the evil surname, killed the Pope, and prepared to kill Athena, but was stopped by Aiolos and fled with Athena, but was listed as a traitor and wanted by Zachar, who pretended to be the Pope, and sent a large number of Saints to chase and kill. Aiolos fled with Athena all the way to the icy and snowy Nordic Europe, where he found his old friend, Mr. Lee, a wealthy man from Hong Kong, who had come to meet him in the name of a local travel expedition, and entrusted Mr. Li with the golden clothes of Athena and Sagittarius.

Mr. Li adopted Athena, gave her the Chinese name 'Li Yichen', and was determined to train a new Saint Seiya to keep Athena safe. Mr. Li selected 100 orphans from all over the world who had the ability to become Saint Seiya for training, and finally cultivated ten qualified Saint Seiya, among which the five most potential people were Seiya from Hong Kong, Zilong from the mainland, Binghe from Siberia, and half-brothers Hui and Instant from Finland and Tsubato.

These five Saint Seiyas were sent to various parts of the world by Mr. Li, obtained the corresponding holy clothes, became bronze Saint Seiyas, protected Athena and fought against the Sanctuary ruled by Zaga, and tried their best to defeat the Golden Saints who guarded the zodiac far more powerful than them, and finally won the victory. ”

After Mo Fei finished speaking, after a few seconds, Li Zi was the first to jump up from the sofa and said, "Wow, this story is simply wonderful, I bet it will be super popular, even more popular than Dragon Ball." Non-brother you are amazing, will this comic be published soon, I want to be your first reader. ”

"It should be almost, I've already got all the characters figured, just write the story, and then find a suitable painter to start the work." "Saint Seiya" is a comic that Masami Cheda began to publish in December of 85, and now it's June, Masami Cheda's "Osaka" has reached the final stage, and "Saint Seiya" will begin to be conceived in October, and if you don't rush to get it out, there will be problems, so I don't want to be a defendant.

Mother Xu didn't expect that Mo Fei was still a comic author, and said with some surprise: "I really didn't expect that Mr. Mo, you are still a cartoonist, you are really versatile." This story is very interesting even for adults like me, let alone children, just look at the expressions of these two girls, and I believe that your comic will be a success. ”

Listening to Xu's mother's sincere words mixed with compliments, it was really difficult to answer, he smiled, looking a little embarrassed and embarrassed, and said: "Then I have to borrow Xu's mother's auspicious words, in fact, comics are just a hobby, I am only responsible for conceiving the story and the image of the characters, and the specific work is done by professional painters, my main mind is still on the movie, after all, movies are the art form that can be accepted by the public, and the audience of comics is too small."

And oriental-style comics can only have a market in Asia, and it is very difficult to open sales in European and American countries, the time, place, and people are indispensable, and there must be a special person to be responsible, this kind of thing is impossible to achieve without a certain period of time of accumulation, so I don't want to do so much. Maybe in a few years, international exchanges will become more frequent, and cultural exchanges will become a kind of subject, and then we may be able to consider this issue, but it will certainly not be now.

Just like we usually read books, if there is no demand, people will always choose books that are in harmony with themselves and their living environment, and between the four famous books and Tolstoy, the latter is certainly not the main choice. But movies and music are different, through the most intuitive narrative and expression, people don't need to spend too much thought to ponder and reverie, as long as the melody of the music or the performance of the actors has enough motivation, it can be successful. ”

It's just casual talk, just to pull the topic to other places, comics are a long-term layout for him, and he can't say too much to anyone at this time. But Xu's mother doesn't think so, she is also a delicate person, looking at the close relationship between Li Zi and Mo Fei, and hoping that her daughter can get some preferential treatment, she immediately began to help Mo Fei consider it.

said: "Mr. Mo, I have an idea, I don't know if it's right, maybe I can help you." Xiaoqing's aunt and uncle-in-law are both engaged in diplomatic work, and many classmates and friends are in the same industry, and they have a certain network in many countries around the world. ”

This is indeed a good suggestion, opening up the comics market through the path of diplomats, which is a thousand times better than a company's efforts, but this method is neither agreed with nor accepted.

Unless it is unavoidable, they are the least willing to deal with bureaucrats, especially those at home. The domestic market is also a big part in Mo Fei's long-term layout, and let's not talk about other issues, let's just say that in the future, Phoenix Culture will be deployed in China, and those bureaucrats who have helped will put forward something, whether you agree or not, it is very troublesome, and if you don't do it, it will increase countless difficulties. Therefore, I would rather continue the layout of the comic industry for a few more years and complete this long process through my own efforts, rather than set up obstacles to the entire layout because of small losses.
