Some people are dissatisfied with him, he can not care, even if that person contacts Zhi Songye, Zhi Songye may not necessarily deal with it.

But Shen Xin is different, whether it is the sales of a single book, or the ranking of the small book of the comics, he and Zhi Songye are at the same level, maybe a random message, Zhi Songye will pay attention to it.

Of course, there is also the possibility that Shen Xin does not ask Zhi Songye, but there is always a risk.

It's not that he can't survive, so there's no need to take this risk.

There may be a day when it will be debunked, but as long as the strength is strong enough, even if it is debunked, it is not a big deal.

There is even a possibility that if his work is good enough, Uematsuno will help him fulfill his lie.

The premise is ...... Opus.

Wei Mao drew the original manuscript, but his mind was thinking about other things.

"Mr. Wei, the name has been modified, take the time to modify the subsequent name." An elderly man over 60 years old handed over the modified name to Wei Mao.

Wei Mao turned around and took the name, because it was a printed version, even if the other party modified the name, he couldn't use it directly.

With the development of technology, he no longer needs to use a transparency table—in fact, he doesn't use it much—but simply scans the name and uses SAI to operate it.

The red pencil lines outline the areas that need to be modified, and some of the grids that need to be merged are also specially marked.

For Wei Mao, this has greatly improved the quality of his work.

"Mr. Lu, can you help me read the manuscript?" Fei Xu saw that the old man was about to take off his glasses, and immediately handed over his name.

"You?"

The old man was stunned, stared at Fei Xu, looked at him for four or five seconds, and still took the name.

Fei Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

The old man, Lu Yiming, had been an editor for 35 years before he retired, and in his words, he had read more manuscripts than any of these newcomers had ever touched.

Fan Yinmo deliberately hired several retired veteran editors and asked them to check the works of the company's cartoonists, and Lu Yiming was one of them.

Not all cartoonists who have signed a contract with Fan Yinmo have the qualifications of exclusive editors, but they must have a certain reputation and have not brought a certain amount of income to the company before they will be assigned as editors. This is also because the cartoonists in his hands mainly contribute to second-tier websites, and the online website will not assign experienced editors to cartoonists, in order to ensure the quality of comics, so that the copyright of comics can be sold, Fan Yinmo also made a bloody investment.

The animation copyright of "Full House" has been sold, and the copyright of the film and television drama has entered the final stage of discussion. Fan Yinmo made a lot of money, but these gains had nothing to do with Wei Mao.

As for Fei Xu, his comics have just been serialized, and whether he can be assigned to his own editor depends on his grades, so after learning that Lu Yiming was coming, he ran over to try his luck.

The first few words of the manga are very important, and if there is an opportunity to craft them, he will definitely not want to let them go.

Wei Mao took the name, walked to the scanner, and scanned the name page by page into a picture. While scanning, he was also flipping through the name, and saw that the entire name was strung into nearly 10 grids, and his brows frowned slightly.

As a cartoonist, Wei Mao hated being cut very much, and this feeling was similar to not being recognized, so he couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Lu, why did you delete so many storyboards in this sentence?" ”

"I thought you didn't ask? The content is rambling and not concise enough. Either delete these compartments, or refine the main plot and add it to other storyboards. Lu Yiming took the red pencil and looked down to read the name handed by Fei Xu.

Fei Xu was distressed that Lu Yiming had changed his name a lot, and when he heard Wei Mao's question, he also had a grudge in his heart, "The teacher is now the hottest cartoonist in China, and it is impossible for so many mistakes to make in creation." ”

"Huh, the hottest?" Lu Yiming sneered and didn't look up, "That's the ...... Just close the door and say it yourself, it's a shame to say so in the circle. ”

"Then the teacher said, who is the hottest cartoonist?" Fei Xu asked stubbornly.

"Do you really not know, or are you playing stupid?" Lu Yiming took off his glasses and stared at Fei Xu, "If you think that the comic circle is just around you, just don't say it." But you have to know that whether it is Huaxia or District 11, the comics created are all commercial comics, and income is the most important indicator to measure the performance of a comic. If the studio does not count the copyright income, the income of other people's single book is more than the studio's monthly income. Don't think about being competitive, which cartoonist has nothing to do with you, draw your own comics and show your results first. ”

"Teacher Lu, don't forget that the studio also has "No Demons in the World" and "Demon King Tutor"? These two comics are not vegetarian. Fei Xu retorted.

"These two are good manga, and the volumes of these two manga combined, should have 1.3 million copies. If you are not bad at math, you should know the difference between 1.3 million and 5 million...... That's really not an order of magnitude. I've been an editor for 35 years, and it's rare to see a comic with more than 2 million volumes in both Huaxia and the 11 districts. However, manga with an average volume of 6 or 700,000 copies can still be seen on a regular basis. You can dislike a manga because everyone's reading habits are different, but as a manga artist, you have to recognize the achievements of a manga, even if you hate it. ”

"Hey, "Y's" is not as good as the volume of "Full House"." Fei Xu changed the subject.

Lu Yiming also put away his glasses this time and looked up at Fei Xu, "I heard you say this just now, and I just put up with it." I didn't expect you to compare these two comics again. Let me ask you, do you know the scene when "Y's" was serialized back then? ”

Fei Xu saw Lu Yiming's serious expression, he was shocked, and hurriedly shook his head, he was less than 10 years old at that time, how could he know the scene at that time.

"What a coincidence, I don't know." Lu Yiming suddenly laughed.

This time, even Wei Mao looked surprised, "You don't know?" ”

When "Y's" was serialized, Wei Mao was only twelve or thirteen years old, and he had never read the comic when it was first serialized.

"That's right. The manga was serialized in the second-tier magazine New World. Since the magazine is a physical entity, there is too much inventory backlog, and the magazine company is sure to lose money. In order to ensure the profitability of magazines, the sales of second-tier magazines are usually not as large as those of first-tier magazines, and the target readers are mainly local readers, and many bookstores in other places do not sell them. I bought New World, which is usually only sold in big bookstores like Jiman, and not in large quantities. Because there are too many manga magazines in Hongchuan and the competition is fierce, it is easy to leave inventory if you are not careful, and sometimes you need luck to buy New World.

"Now that webtoons are prevalent, readers have more choices, so they don't buy a single book as soon as it goes on sale, but as long as they want to see it, they can still see it. In some places, there is no second way to buy "Y's" except by mail, and considering the postage, the price of getting it is a few dollars more expensive than that of a bookstore. At that time, even piracy was not developed, and many people did not have the opportunity to see this comic, how high do you say it could be sold? ”

"However, if the manga is really that good, it is impossible for the magazine not to publish the anime, right? As long as the anime is made, the sales of the manga will naturally go up. Fei Xu asked.

"The problem is with the animation of Y's...... Because the animation was not well discussed, Mr. Shen cut "Y's" in half. The animation came out later, and it was also after "Y's" was cut in half. ”

"Halved?" Fei Xu was taken aback, "Teacher, you're wrong, right?" It should be the magazine that cuts "Y's", how can a cartoonist cut comics in half? ”

Cartoonists take the initiative to cut comics in half? This is unheard of.

Doesn't Shen Zheng want to make money?

"I seem to know something about this, and it seems to be related to Mr. Shen's editor-in-charge. Because the magazine dismissed Mr. Shen as the editor on a trumped-up charge, he was angry and beheaded "Y's". Wei Mao rubbed his chin.

"Teacher, you know?" Fei Xu hurriedly asked.

""Y's" was re-updated on the multi-comic network later, and at that time, the re-update of "Y's" was very discussed, so I checked the reason." Wei Mao explained.

"Webtoons have changed the way readers read, but they have also eliminated the situation where readers are unable to buy and read comics for objective reasons. Compared to the two manga, Y's has a worse environment. Later, although it was re-updated, it was also 10 years later, and more importantly, because Duoman is a webtoon platform, and "Y's" adopts a subscription model, in order to ensure the subscription of "Y's", even after "Y's" ended, Duoman did not sell a large number of single copies of "Y's", but only sold a complete version with a higher price. What's more, Mr. Wei Mao also recorded 5 programs, which is a great advantage. Lu Yiming turned his head to look at Wei Mao, "A cartoonist is a cartoonist after all, not a star." ”

"But ......" Wei Mao gritted his teeth and frowned, "It's not that I took the initiative to record so many shows......

"Then you have thought about the way forward, how to go?" Lu Yiming asked rhetorically.

Wei Mao was stunned, turned around and continued to scan the name.

Lu Yiming sighed, he is the editor of shonen comics, but he also understands shouen comics.

The level of Full House doesn't match its current results, but that doesn't mean it's not a good manga. At least, there are all the highlights that a shoujo manga should have, and the story is also a love comic with humor, which is easy to read, and the threshold is not high for people who have never read a comic.

On the one hand, he is immersed in polishing his works, and on the other hand, he is becoming a star cartoonist standing in front of the stage, Wei Mao must have a choice.

It's just that star cartoonists can be copied, and the emergence of this model will make many newcomers impetuous, and in the long run, it is not a good thing for the comic circle.

As an old editor, he doesn't want to see the comic circle become impetuous, but hopes that more good works will come out.

If you don't like comics from the bottom of your heart, how many people can be the editor-in-charge for 35 years?

The most embarrassing person in the room was Fei Xu.

His name was only half changed, but Lu Yiming had already put away the glasses, so ...... Will he put the name away, or will he continue to ask Lu Yiming to modify it?

Fei Xu himself didn't know.
