Yu Chen has always believed that the comic market in Huaxia is larger than that of District 11, and it is impossible for Shen Xin to give up such a large market.

As long as he is still serialized in Huaxia, "Comic Future" has the best chance of getting a serialization opportunity.

Even if Shen Xin will put forward many conditions, in terms of creation, quality and quantity have always been guaranteed, as long as the contract can be negotiated, there has never been a problem with the work.

Some cartoonists, who have just debuted, have a big temper, not only pressing the deadline to deliver their manuscripts, but more importantly, these people also like to make demands.

Therefore, Yu Chen just listened to Kong Xian's words casually. If you really listen to her, the sales volume of "Comic Future" is estimated to be "on the slide".

An editor brought two cups of coffee, placed them on the coffee table, and two people took one cup each.

Yu Chen blew the coffee twice and drank a small piece, which was a little hot.

"Didn't Mr. Shang recommend that you find a new author? Is there a situation now? Kong Xian looked at Yu Chen with interest.

"Don't talk about it." Yu Chen puffed out his cheeks and sighed, "Mr. Shang gave me some lists, and I sorted out some myself, but those people need to be polished, and the price of poaching people is too high, and the gains outweigh the losses." The gold content of the comic festival is not as good as a year after year, just like "DN", because the serialization time is less than 100 words, and I am not even qualified for the selection, you say, is this reasonable? ”

"Now that I think about it, in the past ten years, it is really the highest quality of Mr. Shen's class...... Mr. Shen is the first, Mr. Ye is the second, and both of them are now the pillar cartoonists of "Comic Future". Now, it is difficult to make the winner of the Newcomer Award become a pillar cartoonist.

"Drawing comics is not as simple as writing. Light family, even if you have not undergone professional training before, as long as you can type the keyboard, you can serialize it on the Internet. Cartoonists are different, they must first have a certain amount of drawing skills, and secondly, they must also be able to storyboard and have the ability to make up stories. Before the official creation, a large part of the people were screened out for painting skills and storyboards.

"There are a lot of people who are good at drawing, and you know that best, because you have contact with a lot of illustrators. But, Sister Kong, how many illustrators want to be cartoonists, but can't draw comic storyboards, you know? ”

This is what makes Yu Chen most depressed.

The process of creating a comic is much more complicated than creating.

Light, as long as the author has a keyboard, a story in his head, and a good writing, one person can create.

But what about cartoonists?

There is a high threshold for creation, and at the same time, there are more tools for painting, such as brushes, drawing boards, dot paper, rulers, cloud rulers, correction fluids, etc., because it is a commercial creation, efficiency should also be put in the first place. 20 pages a week is a struggle for most cartoonists. In order to ensure quality and quantity, cartoonists have to hire assistants.

The light family is a one-man operation, and the cartoonist is more like a system.

According to common sense, illustrators and cartoonists are very similar, but in fact, there is still a big difference between the two professions. One of those problems is in the storyboard.

Illustrators also have storyboards, but illustrations emphasize the expressiveness of the picture, and cartoonists emphasize the coherence of the story and guide the reader to look down, and the focus of the two is different.

"By the way, didn't Mr. Shang recommend the winner of the Golden Brush Award? Back then, Duoman.com poached Mr. Wang, and Mr. Shang still remembers it, right? ”

"Masker?" Yu Chen was stunned for a moment, "He is only 20 years old this year, he is very young, although "Doomsday Rescue" has collapsed a little recently, it is still a good comic. ”

"Will he be the second Teacher Shen Zheng?" Kong Xian said curiously.

"How is that possible? You must know that Mr. Shen opened the book with "The Age of the Gods" and ascended to the No.1 position in China. There will be absolutely no such opportunity in the future...... No, there are chances. Yu Chen snapped his fingers, then leaned forward and stared at Kong Xian, "When Mr. Shen's new work was released, he stepped on Mr. Shen's new work...... This is the only one chance. But, I'm telling you, the odds are zero. Not only can he not do it, but in the next ten years, no one in China will be able to do it. ”

"Exaggerated, huh?" Kong Xian was a little unconvinced.

"Exaggerated?" Yu Chen sneered, "I've read a lot of cartoonists, and I also know the cartoonist industry. Some cartoonists have only one masterpiece. Other than that, no matter what manga I was drawing, I couldn't get up, so I had to continue drawing that manga again. But Mr. Shen, from "Y's", "Chess Soul", to "Steel Refining", "DN", ...... The subject matter of each comic is different, and what is even more terrifying is that the average volume sales of these four comics are on the rise. Isn't it scary? Tell you, it's scary. ”

"I only need to have one more comic, the score doesn't need to be too high, it's slightly better than "Chess Soul", and it's a masterpiece in the same genre, and Mr. Shen's status is completely determined. No matter who else is in the future, even if the sales of his works are higher than Shen Xin, he will not be able to surpass Shen Xin's status, this is the author's heritage. ”

Yu Chen saw the incredulity on Kong Xian's face, and sighed helplessly.

Obviously, it is difficult for Kong Xian to imagine that a cartoonist would be so powerful.

Now, none of the domestic light middle schools have been recognized by foreign readers, so there is no indispensable light home in China at present.

"As for the masker, I told him all our conditions, and he promised to think about it, but yesterday, he officially rejected us."

"Huh? Why? Kong Xian puzzled, "Isn't "Comic Future" better than Duoman.com? ”

"I also want to know why, his reason is that he wants to finish painting Doomsday Rescue, and until then, he doesn't consider our invitation." Yu Chen puffed out his cheeks, depressed in his heart.

But since the masker was reluctant to come over in a short time, he didn't have much to do.

He also has a trump card in his hand, which is Luo Zheng.

Now, I can only ask Luo Zheng to hurry up and hand in the name of the new comics.

"I'm done with the coffee, and if it's okay, I'll go first. The coffee was nice. Yu Chen put the coffee cup on the coffee table.

"No, brother, how about another drink?" Kong Xian hurriedly stopped Yu Chen.

"Huh?"

"What I want to talk about, haven't you officially started talking about yet?" Kong Xian chuckled, "It's related to comics." ”

Yu Chen blinked his eyes and didn't react for a while.

The editor put a cup of brewed coffee in front of Yu Chen again, Yu Chen took a sip and said with a smile: "What's the matter." ”

"Cooperation."

"Can you be clearer?" Yu Chen held the coffee cup in both hands, and his eyes fell on Kong Xian's face.

Vaguely, he had an idea in his heart.

"You see, you can find the right painter, I can provide quality products. As long as the two parties can create a good comic, whether it is for "CF" or "Kaichuang Library", it will be of great benefit? ”

Really...... I said why she suddenly asked about the comics, and it turned out that she had an ulterior motive.

"Isn't there still a light reading? There is no shortage of layouts for the app. Yu Chen asked rhetorically.

"Our magazine wants to hold a light family that can be ranked in China. Reading is not impossible, but it is not a place of preaching. So, I wanted to borrow a piece of Comic Future. You are short of manuscripts, but your appeal in China is still there. Let's find a copy of the best light of "Qichuang Library", you help find a cartoonist with solid drawing skills, everyone takes what they need, how about it? If it does, you don't have to worry about the lack of cartoonists. Kong Xian said her plan.
