Chapter 50: Time, Serious Loses
If you think about it carefully, judging from the contact during this time, the style of the Solo Singer Magazine seems to be really casual, and they do important things better than anyone else, but the overall details are always speechless. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In their style, they can really do this kind of thing by courier, so they don't have to think about the award ceremony or anything, if there is such a thing, do you still need to bother the courier company.
The most important award in the industry is also of great significance to the Solo Singer Magazine, but such an award has no grand significance, it is just troublesome, and it is really a group of people who don't care about the details.
"Because the authors of our magazine are distributed all over the country, and the cartoonists are basically very homely, wouldn't it be troublesome to come to Qingxi to receive the award? Therefore, Teacher Xiqiu and they feel that this process can be omitted, and the result is the most important thing. ”
Yexi's explanation actually sounds quite reasonable, but Zhang Yao believes that as long as he wins the award, anyone will be willing to come from thousands of miles away, and which cartoonist can still have no contact with the editorial department.
The other winners can only express the trophy because they are in a different place, but Zhang Yao is in Qingxi, and she came over to urge her at night and night, and by the way, she brought the trophy over.
Under the gaze of Yunshang and Xu Xiaowei, Zhang Yao took the trophy in his hand, looked at it over and over again, and said: "The weight is quite heavy, but the feeling of gold cancan is a little vulgar, this can't be pure gold, right?" ”
"Olympic gold medals aren't pure gold." Night and night are a matter of course.
"Ale, it's obviously called a gold medal, but it's not made of gold?" Xu Xiaowei was severely hit by the three views.
Zhang Yao's attempt was obviously a little stronger than this confused bastard, so he didn't care about it, but said: "Such a bullish award, I thought there would be an equally bullish name, but I didn't expect it to be directly called a comic award, and the novel is a literary award?" ”
The Solo Magazine Literary Award, the Solo Magazine Comic Award, is indeed called that, Yexi explained with a smile: "It is said that at the beginning, I thought about naming the comic award the Golden Brush Award, and the literary award was named the Golden Brush Award, but it was later rejected. ”
"Fortunately, it was denied." Zhang Yao shouted luck, she had already despaired of the naming level of the group of people in the solo group.
"I almost forgot that there is a prize money in addition to the trophy." Yexi said as she stole a check from her bag and handed it over.
"I'll see how much it is." Yunshang snatched it again, Xu Xiaowei also poked his little head over, and then began to count, "One zero, two zeros...... Six zeros, wow, teacher, a whole million. ”
The prize of one million is indeed a lot, Zhang Yao sold 500,000 copies of a single book to get this royalty, and now he has received this large amount of income for no reason, which can be described as an unexpected joy.
Zhang Yao was also very happy in her heart, but she was more concerned about the award itself, one million is not much for her now, but she was a little suspicious, "It took more than 30 years to select eight winners, you wouldn't have done this deliberately because you were reluctant to give up the bonus, right?" ”
"It's not good to slander others casually, our magazine has always been very generous." Yexi still said with a smile, but Zhang Yao felt that it would be dangerous if she continued to dwell on this issue.
Aside from this kind of malicious speculation, in fact, it is really not easy for newcomers in "Shaotuan" magazine to win awards for their new works, they are all newcomers, nothing more than painting skills or other aspects, they must be immature.
These immaturity are ultimately the factors that lead to the defeat, and this still refers to works that are popular enough to support serialization without being cut in half, even if it has a history of more than 30 years, there are not many such works.
The vast majority of newcomers and new works have been cut in half, and even the treasure of the town house of "Shaotuan", the author of "The Wind Rises in Shushan", also failed to end well.
And in this year, "Psychic Swordsman" and "Armed Hunter", which were serialized at the same time as Zhang Yao's "Dragon Ball", have also been cut in half.
The reason for this is also related to the model of "Young Group", because they almost do not train cartoonists themselves, most of the authors of serialization are wild, and it is difficult to avoid the immaturity of newcomers.
"The King of Painting" is different, most of their authors have been trained by themselves for several years, and they have survived after being assistants for N years, at least they are very secure in their painting skills.
"Speaking of which, our magazine has not gained much in terms of works this year, and a total of nine new works have been serialized, only Zhang Yao, your Dragon Ball is the only one."
Yexi then said: "Of the other eight works, the remaining five have been cut in half, and the remaining three are difficult to take charge of alone, so what will happen depends on the future performance." ”
"Uh, that means that there are four people who participated in the awards, plus me?"
"It's three, and one of them is already an old author and doesn't participate in the selection."
Choosing one of the three, Zhang Yao suddenly felt that there was nothing to be proud of.
For "Young Group", this year's harvest is not big, but in fact, it is also reasonable, after all, it is impossible for every comic to become a signboard-like existence, and not every cartoonist can become famous, and most of them may be like that for a lifetime.
The serialization of nine new works a year is not less.,Although the rule is to cut in half every two months.,But it's not 100 percent.,At the bottom of the survey rankings for a month in a row.,There are also cases where you suddenly return to the light and escape from the waist cut area.,So the waist cut is actually irregular.,It's just a decision every two months.。
Of course, if you want to talk about quality, their harvest this year is definitely not small, Zhang Yao is going to become a national cartoonist, although she will definitely be despised if she says it now, but she is very confident that she will sit firmly in the top position in the future......
"It's been a year before you know it?" Zhang Yao yawned, put the trophy on the bookshelf in the activity room, and then put the check away.
"You should say it's only been a year, timeline ...... that kind of thing," Yunshang shook her head.
Su Yunsleeve, who had never interjected, also laughed and said: "There is really no need to worry too much about this, more than thirty years have passed since the robot cat, and Nobita has just entered middle school, if you want to count the age, he is already in his fifties." ”
"So, are we the legendary 10,000-year-old high school students?"
"Ale, I'll never be able to graduate from high school?" Xu Xiaowei seemed to be frightened.
