Chapter 40: Sample Magazines
1 March 1998. Morning.
Wang Qinian had just finished class, and the porter of the school's communication room sent an email: "Who is Wang Qinian, your email!" ”
"I am!" Wang Qinian took the package in surprise.
I opened the email, and inside was a sample issue of "BJ Cartoon" and a letter from the editorial department. Wang Qinian soon knew what was going on - "The Rose Girl" had already begun to be serialized in North Carolina.
Regular magazines have expressed their works, and in addition to the manuscript fee, they will also send samples to the authors.
Many writers and cartoonists, depending on their qualifications, can come up with a mountain of magazine samples and single publication samples, so that others can see what it means to be a real work.
The samples and publications that have published his works, the height of the pile, the height of the pile, the shocking effect is enough to make people stunned.
Wang Qinian brought the mail package back to the dormitory, and everyone couldn't help but be surprised.
"Brother Nian, have you become a cartoonist?" Li Xie seemed to be fussed.
"No, I'm just providing ideas and stories, it's a friend of mine who really creates." Wang Qinian smiled.
"It's a little girlfriend!" Hao Yi canceled and said, "Fifteen-year-old middle school student! Wang Qinian is a big lolita! ”
"I see!" Du Jie also suddenly realized and said, "No wonder there are so many beautiful women in the school, he never pretends to be sexual, the real reason is that he is Lolitacon!" ”
"This is the story that Lolicon likes!" Hao Yi quickly turned to the page number of "The Rose Girl" and said, "This work is enough to expose his aesthetic taste." ”
Wang Qinian said with a smile: "In the same "Dream of Red Mansions", economists see "Yi", Taoists see lewdness, talented people see lingering, revolutionaries see full rows, and gossips see palace secrets. What you see, it's not just a matter of the work, it's a reflection of your heart! ”
was refuted by Wang Qinian, Hao Yi smiled: "I can understand your feelings, only if you have a weak heart, you will explain so much!" “
When Wang Qinian and Hao Yi were two bad friends, they were at loggerheads.
The others were curiously flipping through the sample magazines.
"What's going on with the pen name of Yacheng Mumengye?"
"The pen name shared by the team, in the future, if the work is popular and the income is enough, I will use this pen name to set up a comic studio." Wang Qinian explained casually.
"Awesome!"
"It's worthy of Brother Nian!"
"This comic, tsk, the plot is like a movie and television."
"Film and television? No, if it is filmed by real people, Hollywood can do it, and it has to burn money with enough movie special effects. ”
"It's perfect for an animated adaptation!"
Wang Qinian watched everyone talk about it, and he also felt a little proud.
An exhibition that uses gold, silver, bronze, and black iron to divide China's original comic industry. Then, the current Chinese comic industry should be in the silver age.
It used to be the era of "Painting King" magazine, and it was the golden age. Founded in 94, "The King of Paintings" is an embryonic symbol of Chinese comic magazines. "The King of Paintings" was established only one year ago, and the number of copies reached 8o, and this record did not begin to be broken until more than 2o12.
Because "The King of Paintings" was too popular, it was blushing and slandered, and in the end, it was ordered to stop publication. Moreover, in the months after 95 years, the domestic media shouted and killed comics, stifling the comics industry in the name of affecting the growth of teenagers.
Fortunately, the efforts of the domestic cultural circles have created the "5155 Project", that is, the curve to save the comic industry. It is proposed to encourage the exhibition of manga and anime suitable for children, instead of banning all manga at once, which will kill the animation industry.
After that, five policy-supported magazines, including "BJ Cartoon", and hundreds of anime magazines, sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Among so many magazines, the most influential one is "BJ Cartoon". Because, "BJ Cartoon" inherited a lot of the legacy of "Painting King", and many cartoonists in the "Painting King" era now join "BJ Cartoon".
At this time, the cartoonists serialized in "North Carolina" included Yao Feila, Nie Jun, Yao Wei and a number of cartoonists. Among them, Yao Feila's "Dream Man" is known as the most influential comic in China in the 9o.
Even so, in Wang Qinian's eyes, the original cartoonists of this era, whether it is the comic technique, painting style, or story and creativity, are relatively immature.
And "The Rose Girl" is Wang Qinian's creativity for the future, and in addition, he continues to strive for excellence in character design and painting style. This comic is in no way inferior to the work of any famous artist on "North Carolina"!
……
When Wang Qinian received the sample issue of "BJ Cartoon", the new issue of "BJ Cartoon" also began to be distributed in the retail channels of many newspapers and magazines in China.
Especially in BJ, the magazine is very popular with students.
"Boss, a copy of BJ Cartoon!" A middle school student said to the owner of the bookstore at the school gate.
"The last one!" The bookstore owner said, "In this issue of the comic, there is a relatively good-looking "Rose Girl", which is absolutely good-looking! It's even more powerful than Yao Feila's "Dream Man"! ”
In this era, the number of excellent original serialized comics is very scarce, so much so that it is difficult to bury any level of attractive comics.
The reason is very simple.,The number of new comics serialized every year is only 2o.,So readers don't have a choice.,Only watch these 2o parts.,So,Each one will have a good popularity.。 There have been more than 2oo comics serialized, and most readers only pay attention to twenty works, and some of the rest may not have the energy to read them, and they will be buried.
If there are 2ooo parts of the new serialized comics, readers are still most concerned about the second and third parts. The possibility of being buried is even greater.
At this time, there are about 2oo original serialized comics. There are horizontal comics that are relatively easy to stand out.
"Isn't it?" Such a middle school student doesn't believe it.
"Don't tease you! Originally, 1o copies were purchased, but it was because "Rose Girl" was so good-looking, so that now there is only one copy left! The boss laughed.
A junior high school student wants to flip through a catalog.
I heard someone shouting again: "Boss, North Carolina magazine!" ”
"Sold out!" The boss said helplessly.
"Halo...... How many bookstores are sold out? The visitor looked very disappointed, "I heard that the new issue of "Rose Girl" is very interesting, so I planned to buy it! ”
The middle school student suddenly felt that he was very lucky to be able to buy the last magazine early.
In the next few days, this scene continued to ......
"Rose Maiden" and the mysterious author "Yacheng Mumeba" began to meet the eyes of many comic book readers with the line of "North Carolina......
