46 We don't publish garbage in our magazines!
Hearing Fang Xi say that he had completed the first words of the Dragon Ball, Ye Chui suddenly showed a surprised expression: "Quickly bring it to me!" ”
Fang Xi hurriedly handed the sketch to Ye Chui.
Ye Chui browsed it, in fact, he didn't know how many times he had read this draft before, but now that he saw the full version, he felt completely different.
He seems to recall the excitement he felt when he first saw the Dragon Ball anime broadcast on TV when he was in elementary school.
Fang Xi's version is naturally a little different from the original, and some brushstrokes are not as capable and profound as Akira Toriyama, but all in all, the level is already very high, especially for Fang Xi, who is drawing comics for the first time, this is already fully qualified.
Thirty pages of sketches, Ye Chui read back and forth many times, and he looked satisfied: "Yes, that's what you want." ”
"Brother Fork, what are we going to do next?" Hearing his approval of the cartoon he had drawn, Fang Xi smiled and asked.
"Find a magazine to vote for." Ye Chui said.
He opened the light curtain of his portable light brain, searched on the thousand degrees, and found a few magazines that might publish comics.
As mentioned earlier, comic books are all the rage in this world, and there are countless publications of various comic books.
Ye Chui searched for it, and finally chose a magazine called Comic Book Weekly.
The magazine is a weekly magazine and has the largest circulation among domestic comic book publications, selling 800,000 copies a week.
This is far ahead of any magazine of its kind.
Since Ye Chui is going to publish in a magazine, he naturally has to choose the best magazine.
He browsed the magazine's call for papers, and then said to Fang Xi: "This magazine only accepts electronic manuscripts, you go and scan the manuscripts into electronic documents first, and then send them to this magazine." ”
"Brother Fork, this is a comic book weekly, and it is said that it is very strict with manuscripts, can we do it?" Fang Xi asked a little hesitantly.
"Give yourself some confidence." Ye Chui is very confident.
It's a Dragon Ball, so it's impossible not to be accepted, right?
Seeing Ye Chui so confident, Fang Xi seemed to have found a little courage, and agreed to scan it, and half an hour later, it had been scanned into an electronic document.
As for the signature of the comic, at the suggestion of Ye Chui, the original fork professor was written, and the words "Painting Dugu and Seeking Thinness" were written.
Fang Xi then sent the manuscript to a magazine called Comic Book Weekly.
Nowadays, everything is networked, and the review time is very fast, and it only takes three days to complete the review.
Fang Xi was still a little worried and excited: "I have buddies who have submitted manuscripts to the comic book weekly, but they have been rejected, I really don't know if we can do it." ”
"Don't think about it so much, just wait for the result." Ye Chui smiled and comforted, "This one can't work, then we'll go find other magazines." ”
Maintain complete confidence in Dragon Ball Leaf Droop.
However, he soon realized how difficult it was to get everyone to accept this novel approach to comics.
……
Inside the editorial office of the comic book weekly.
"There's another new draft."
An editor surnamed Liu received Ye Chui's submission, and he clicked on the manuscript casually and browsed it.
"Huh? This manuscript ...... It's kind of weird. ”
The comic strips are all one page at a time, with some text introductions, and the editor surnamed Liu suddenly saw the novel form of comics, and his eyes immediately widened.
He subconsciously wanted to fork this manuscript, but after thinking about it, he read it patiently.
And the more he looked at it, the more strange the expression on his face became: "This story is really interesting...... Adapted from Journey to the West, but plausible, this should be a long story, what I received was just the first word, and at the end of the Monkey King was about to start his adventure with Boomer, I really want to know what they will encounter in the future, and what wishes they will make if they finish collecting Dragon Balls? ”
"Xiao Liu, what are you muttering about?" An editor next to him asked.
"Xiao Zhang, look at this, it's very interesting." Xiao Liu said as he passed the Dragon Ball manuscript to Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang looked at it once, and his eyes really lit up: "This ...... I've never seen this kind of comic book before, but it's very expressive and interesting! ”
"What are you two looking at?" Another editor asked.
"Xiao Liang, you can also take a look, this manuscript is very peculiar."
So Xiao Zhang passed the draft of the Dragon Ball to Xiao Liang.
There were a total of ten editors in the comic book weekly editorial room, and after a few moments, each editor read the first episode of Dragon Ball.
Eight of the editors praised it and thought it was novel and interesting, and agreed with publishing it in a magazine, while the remaining two disagreed, thinking that it was not a comic book and that it was completely unartistic, and most importantly, that the comic was adapted from Journey to the West, which was simply ruining the classics.
The office was noisy.
Finally, the editor-in-chief was alarmed.
"What are you shouting?" The editor-in-chief asked as he stepped out of his separate office.
"Editor-in-chief, come and see this manuscript." Xiao Liu hurriedly said that this manuscript was assigned to him, and he had the right to show this manuscript to the editor-in-chief.
When the editor-in-chief's portable light brain received this manuscript, he only glanced at it, and his brows furrowed: "What is this?" How can a comic strip divide such a small grid in the middle of the drawing? That's a comic book like this! ”
"Editor-in-chief, I didn't think it was right at first, but the picture is very strong in this way, and the story is very interesting." Xiao Liu explained in a whisper.
"Interesting?" The editor-in-chief snorted coldly, "The comic books published in our comic book weekly want a sense of art, what is this Dragon Ball is not qualified at all, kill me!" Don't even think about it when you see this kind of mess in the future! ”
Hearing the words of the editor-in-chief, Xiao Liu immediately said anxiously: "But the editor-in-chief, most of us think this manuscript is very good......
"We're a comic book weekly, and you can't publish any garbage!" The editor-in-chief was already a little angry, "Don't say more, send him a rejection letter." ”
Xiao Liu looked regretful, but the editor-in-chief's decision was not something he could shake, and he asked, "Then how should I deal with him?" ”
"Tell him that our magazine doesn't publish garbage!" The editor-in-chief said coldly that he was very angry with the person who submitted Dragon Ball, the form of the comic book is unchangeable, and it is an insult to the magazine to submit such a thing to his magazine!
"Good...... All right. Xiao Liu nodded and agreed.
