Chapter 465: A Sudden Phone Call

"IC Future" almost regarded the animation of "Steel" as a killer feature, so the magazine also paid close attention to the progress of the animation of "Steel".

But considering that all the follow-up plots are connected.,So,The magazine and the producer went through a heated discussion.,Finally, the release time was determined in the autumn of next year.,That is, next year's October.,The first season of 24 episodes.,After 9 episodes of the biography.,Then the rest of the animation.。

In this way, it is guaranteed that "Steel" will be able to broadcast the animation for the whole year after that.

In addition, for Shen Xin, another good news is that "Chess Soul: Beidou Cup" has been produced and will be released during the Spring Festival this year.

The game of "Chess Soul" is also said to be in the end, and after the production is completed, there will be an internal test, mainly to patch game bugs, and it is estimated that it will be delayed for a while.

It is expected that the release of "Beidou Cup" will drive the sales of "Chess Soul", and even the sales of "Steel" may be affected.

In the next year or two, the sales volume of "Chess Soul" and "Steel Refining" should have a good increase.

Xi Muhan thought of the script, worried, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a scream from Liu Rui downstairs.

"What's wrong?" Xi Muhan hurriedly asked downstairs.

"Xiaohan, I'm sorry, I just saw the Weibo of Duoman.com, and I was shocked."

"Huh?"

"It's really a big dealβ€”" Gao Hang responded.

"Generous?"

Shen Xin was confused, immediately found his mobile phone, and clicked on the official Weibo of Duoman.com, and Xi Muhan also clicked on Weibo.

"Golden Brush Award Essay?" Shen Xin's eyes lit up when he saw this Weibo, and then he couldn't wait to look down.

"Although Duoman is a newly created website, it has always been unremitting in the pursuit of good works. In order to stimulate the creation of original comics by domestic cartoonists, this site plans to judge the entries from December 1 to June 30 next year, and announce the winning works on September 30. ”

"Golden Brush Award, 1 winner, 5 million yuan, the quality of comics is no less than that of works such as "Game" and "Hunting Abyss", and it is allowed to be vacant.

"Silver Brush Award, 5 winners, 1 million yuan."

"All copyright and derivative proceeds of the winning works belong to the website. The specific selection rules and requirements for entries will be announced on December 1. ”

Shen Xin was also taken aback when he saw this Weibo, "This is equivalent to taking out 10 million to hold the grand prize...... It's really a big deal. ”

According to the content embodied in Weibo, it is not difficult to judge that the nature of the award-winning works is to buy out, and although there is no derivative income, there should be income from monthly comics and single books.

"The Golden Brush Award is 5 million yuan - a lot of money." When Xi Muhan saw this number, he inevitably had some hot eyes.

"National Journey" has been sold for so long, and it almost only has so much money.

"The 5 million is not easy to take, don't you see a line written on the back? Can be vacant. Therefore, the only condition for the issuance of this bonus is that the income brought by comics to the website is greater than 5 million, but the benefits that comics bring to cartoonists at this level must be more than 5 million? Shen Xin explained.

"Yes." Xi Muhan nodded, and looked at the phone screen again, "If 5 million can buy comics of the level of "Game" or "Hunting Abyss", it will definitely be earned." ”

"There should be authors to fight, after all, copyright is a thing that has to be sold to have value, keep it in your hands, to be honest...... Worthless. The corners of Shen Xin's mouth curled, "Many magazines are really too conservative, and only by letting authors see real money can they realize their potential...... From the author's point of view, it is also a good thing to be able to muddy the waters with the Internet. However, the scope of this award may be even greater. ”

"Huh?" Xi Muhan looked at Shen Xin puzzled.

"I heard Brother Wang say that the magazine originally wanted to create an award, but it was difficult for them to come up with 10 million yuan in cash as a bonus, which had an impact on the layout of "CF"; Secondly, the award time overlaps with the 'Comics Festival', and in the future, the role of the 'Comics Festival' will be even smaller - for more than ten years, the prize money of the 'Comics Festival' is only a few hundred thousand, which is really too petty. ”

Shen Xin couldn't help but complain, he also won the award of the "Comics Festival", but the money in his hand was not as much as the income brought by a single book.

Honor is important, but for authors, it is far less affordable than bonuses.

Shen Xin then pulled down another Weibo, another Weibo on the official Weibo of Duoman.com, which also attracted his attention - Duo Comics announced 50 comics that will be uploaded in November. Among them, there are many comics that Shen Xin is familiar with, such as "Crumbling", "Ghost Potential", and "Chasing the Wind Boy......

"Duoman.com really wants to kill the comic magazine." Shen Xin sighed.

"Huh?" Xi Muhan was stunned for a moment, and then saw this Weibo, "These comics are definitely not as good as "Steel Forged", so the impact shouldn't be too big, right?" ”

"They can't compare to "Steel", but the signature comics of second-rate magazines are not much worse than the main brands of first-class magazine comics. The addition of these 50 comics may make the magazine feel tricky. ”

It is no exaggeration to say that the front of the multi-comic network is just a small fight, and what really wants the life of the paper magazine is that these 50 finished comics - the most lacking content of the multi-comic network, temporarily "make up".

2 months free...... Who knows how many readers can be "sucked" away?

"Hey, that's weird." Xi Muhan said suddenly.

"No...... There is no Y's. According to common sense, "Y's" should be the top manga serialized in second-rate magazines, right? Why isn't there a Y's? ”

"Definitely not. I just signed the paper rights to Y's. Shen Xin said with a smile.

Speaking of which, thanks to the fact that webtoons were not popular at that time, most of the contracts did not mention the copyright of the Internet - in fact, it is a matter of one sentence - and even the copyright of "Steel" and webtoons is still in his hands, but generally speaking, the original magazine has priority, so the electronic copyright of "Steel" is more likely to be given to "ic future".

"Huh? I see. Xi Muhan bowed slightly.

"Y's" only has ten years of copyright, and now it has been six or seven years, and after a few more years of copyright, it will naturally return to Shen Xin's hands, so he is not in a hurry, when the time comes, just go directly to "Ne Orld" to ask for the copyright - if at that time, "Ne Orld" is still there.

At this moment, the mobile phone in Shen Xin's hand suddenly rang, he subconsciously glanced at the mobile phone, and his expression suddenly became strange.

"What's wrong?" Xi Muhan saw the look on Shen Xin's face and was puzzled.

Shen Xin smiled on his face, "Guess who called me?" ”

"I don't know." Xi Muhan shook his head.

"Song Tae." Shen Xin glanced at his phone and chuckled.

"He? Yes? It can't be for the webtoon copyright of "Y's", right? Xi Muhan was surprised.

"Then who knows?"

Shen Xin thought about it, but still connected the mobile phone, he wanted to know what chess Song Tai was going to play. <
