Chapter 1169: Draw a Circle

What the?

Xi Muhan and Yan Fei were both stunned.

Wang Wenhong sighed, "The two of you, one of you is focusing on the work related to "SLAM DUNK", and the other is preparing new works, collecting materials, and not reading the news of District 11 at all. ”

"What's wrong with District 11?" Xi Muhan said curiously.

"Gossip, not sure...... Not long ago, Fan Yinmo did not personally record it for a while, saying that he was the author of "Doomsday Rescue". ”

"That's right."

"Someone in District 11 pointed out that this is not the case." Wang Wenhong exhaled.

"Huh?"

"What do you mean?"

Yan Fei and Xi Muhan were all stunned, while Wang Wenhong took out his mobile phone and clicked on a web page.

The two men took the phone and their eyes fell on the web page.

Below that video, there is even a Japanese translation, and at the bottom of the video, there are some rumors that are very eye-catching.

"Doomsday Deliverance was not painted by the mask at all, it was a manuscript he bought, and after a single hand, it won a Golden Brush Award. Now I know that the comic circle in China is really mixed! ”

"What do you know? "Doomsday Rescue" was originally very good, and it is normal to get the Huaxia award. ”

"The question is, is this message true?"

……

This message did not cause heated discussions, on the one hand, because the person who first proposed this statement did not reply, and on the other hand, the reputation of Masker in District 11 is very small, and most people do not know it.

If there is no fame, there will naturally be no popularity.

"This doesn't sound like a real thing, does it?" Xi Muhan smiled awkwardly, "Moreover, the heat is too small." ”

"Flies don't bite eggs, if it's really something that doesn't happen at all, it is estimated that there will be no news of this one." Wang Wenhong explained.

"But if no one is paying attention, that's the end of it, right? Just like this news, there are very few people who follow it. Xi Muhan replied.

"Yes...... However, this matter can be followed again, what if a year or two has passed, and it is turned out again? Wang Wenhong stretched his muscles, "If you really plan to use 'cartoonists' as the theme, it is estimated that it will take several years to draw, so there is no hurry." ”

"Wait, eat melons and eat melons, if you want to draw this matter into a comic, you really have to think about it carefully." Yan Fei reminded, "After all, this involves more than one person. ”

Art originates from the processing of life, but it cannot be used directly.

"No, it won't." Xi Muhan waved his hand, "I'm just planning to eat melons, as for whether to draw such a plot or not, I really haven't thought about it." Would readers be interested in such a subject? Comics with cartoonists as the protagonists should be considered relatively niche, right? ”

"That's the previous problem, you also know the routines commonly used in comics, and if you want to be recognized by readers, you must work the content. The three of us think about it, and we should be rewarded. If it really doesn't work, then ask Mr. Shen for advice? ”

"Nope." Xi Muhan hurriedly waved his hand, "I don't want to give him the half-finished product, and besides, tell him confidently now...... What if it doesn't work out? ”

That's embarrassing.

"Then, you can only watch the same type of comics in District 11." Yan Fei said.

Huaxia does have comic books that teach how to draw comics, but that kind of book is difficult to serialize in comic magazines - the serialized cartoonists are more powerful than the authors, so, who teaches whom?

Since it was not serialized in comic magazines, it was not taken into account by Wang Wenhong. And there really aren't very many works that really tell the story of a cartoonist – not teaching manga.

There is no work to refer to in China, and only the 11th region of the country can be considered.

……

"SLAM DUNK" is being serialized, and Shen Xin rarely cares about other things, but when she goes home, she listens to Xi Muhan talk about what she saw and heard in a day.

I hadn't heard her talk about Fan Yinmo for a few days, and Shen Xin thought that this matter was over.

After all, there are good and bad things in the studio, and everyone's opinion is different, even including Shen Xin himself, it is difficult to judge whether this model is good or bad for comics practitioners, and whether it is good or bad for the current domestic comic environment.

But it exists, and there is a reason for its existence, and it is difficult to eliminate the existence of studios.

Businessmen seek profits, as long as there are interests, there will be people who do this, but the person who is currently being pushed into the public eye is Fan Yinmo.

The studio should still have its potential for development.

In fact, Fan Yinmo also has this idea, one of the studios can make money, and the other, although he doesn't draw comics much, he also has some love for comics. If a hobby can be combined with a career, of course, it is the best thing.

However, "Comic Future", "Manga Fly", and even include Duoman.com and Light Reading, the statements of the studio have suddenly shrunk the studio's living space a lot.

If you have one or two comics that have been serialized on top platforms and achieved good results, it will be very beneficial to the studio's publicity.

If a company wants to be recognized by more people, it must have its own fist products, even when it is boasted to the outside world, it is easier to attract better people, and even in order to make these people more confident in his studio, he also came up with two comics that are more famous in the circle.

One is "Warm Full House", the other is a comic created by Qiu Qian, and "I Am Not a Teacher" - a comic with a campus theme.

Sometimes when he meets someone who is particularly good, he may even pull out "The Demon King's Tutor".

Of course, since Snow's salary is not paid by him, he can only say that this is a cooperation project between the studio and Yishu Culture.

This is like recruiting students from major training institutions, and they always have to set one or two examples to make it easier to attract people.

As for "No Demon in the World", Fan Yinmo really attaches great importance to this comic, and it is really difficult to achieve results in "Comic Future".

Now, after "Comic Future" issued a statement, it is even more unlikely that he will take out "No Demons in the World" for promotion.

But the successive voices of several platforms have also cut off the possibility that he wants to use several major platforms to promote his works - if he really encounters good works in the future, he can continue to submit, at most he will lose some. But for now, he still has to avoid the limelight.

The author he signed is a second-tier website. Because the website is small, there is an opportunity to negotiate terms with the website, either to give more publicity, or, to ask for part of the copyright.

In terms of the studio's revenue alone, platforms like Comic Future didn't have much of an impact on him — at least, that's what he thought.

However, Fan Yinmo forgot one thing, the cartoonists he signed with were people, not objects.

At the beginning, they were willing to sign a contract with Fan Yinmo for a very low single-page manuscript fee, in order to one day, they could become a first-line cartoonist, at least like Qiu Qian and Wei Mao, but now, the announcement of "Comic Future" is equivalent to saying that it is basically impossible to rely on the studio and serialize on a first-line platform.

These cartoonists are not very comfortable with this situation.
