Chapter 1206: Background and Differences

"Teacher Shen, what's wrong with him?"

Seeing Shen Xin's contemplation, Tachibana Shen was not very relieved, so he could only ask Wang Wenhong.

Wang Wenhong was also a little surprised when he saw Shen Xin's expression, but soon thought, would Shen Xin already have the idea of the next comic?

If so, that's great.

HE ALSO WANTED TO KNOW WHAT QUALITY COMICS SHEN XIN COULD DRAW AFTER "SLAM DUNK".

Tachibana Shen's words made Shen Xin come back to his senses.

Seeing Tachibana Shen's puzzled face, Shen Xin chuckled lightly and said, "SLAM DUNK is not over yet, and I haven't figured out what the next manga will look like." After five or six years of serialization, I want to take another break, otherwise, my body may not be able to bear it. As for the next work...... My wife had just become pregnant, and I wanted to spend some time with her after SLAM DUNK was over, so I thought about working with my wife to create a monthly comic for the transition. MOREOVER, THIS STYLE OF SLAM DUNK PUTS A LOT OF PRESSURE ON ME AND MY ASSISTANT, AND I MAY CONSIDER CHANGING THE STYLE AT THAT TIME. ”

In the middle of the two comics, in addition to the fact that "Mandao" is the work of two people, there is another reason, which is to let readers adapt to the change in the style of comics.

Ken Obata and Yuhiko Inoue are among the top manga artists in the "Jump" series in terms of art, but their styles are completely different. Inoue's style is more realistic, and Ken Ohata's style is more gorgeous, and this characteristic has been brought into full play in "DN".

The style of writing, readers may wonder if it is ghostwriting, not to mention a more intuitive style than the style?

Moreover, even if readers can adapt, it will take a process, and "Mandao" can just become a buffer work.

"Change style?"

Tachibana Shen was also stunned for a moment when he heard Shen Xin say this, and then remembered that the painting style of "SLAM DUNK" is different from "Chess Soul", "Steel Refining" and "DN" - Shen Xin is good at more than one style shown in "SLAM DUNK".

"The current style is also good, why not continue to use it?"

"I'm more used to drawing in the previous style, and besides, drawing fantasy comics, this style isn't quite suitable, right?"

Inoue Yuhiko's painting style is more realistic, which can express the heaviness of the work, while fantasy comics emphasize imagination, at least Shen Xin didn't think of how to combine the two for the time being.

If it's a fairy or martial arts work, you can use it.

Similar to the style of "Wanderer's Journey", with Xianxia or martial arts stories, the effect should be good, but name has to think about it carefully before it can be created.

"That's just as well."

Hearing Wang Wenhong's translation, Tachibana Shen also bowed slightly.

Overhead comics, the style of painting in "Steel Forge is pretty good".

"By the way, I heard that you will have a monthly update work in a few months, I don't know what type of work that work is?" Tachibana asked curiously.

"Huh?"

Wang Wenhong was startled when he heard Tachibana Shen's words.

"Comic Future" wants to serialize "Mandao Road", Wang Wenhong can understand, after all, Shen Xin has opened up several positions of other cartoonists in China, even if Shen Xin is only a monthly change, he can still help "SLAM DUNK" attract many readers, but "Shonen Leap" is different, there are more good cartoonists than "Comic Future", besides, there are national comics like "The Gate of Eternal Life", and there is no need to use monthly comics to increase popularity.

Wang Wenhong was full of doubts and translated Tachibana Shen's words to Shen Xin, Shen Xin didn't expect Tachibana Shen to take the initiative to mention this monthly comic, but since he asked, he didn't plan to hide it: "With cartoonists as the theme." ”

"Cartoonist?" Tachibana's eyes jumped for a moment, and then he rubbed his forehead, looking embarrassed.

Wang Wenhong chuckled, "Because it is a niche theme, therefore, I will choose the monthly change." ”

"It's not a matter of subject matter." Tachibana waved his hand, "I want to know, how are you going to create it?" ”

"Tell the story between cartoonists, let readers understand the cartoonist industry, and of course, it may also reveal some 'secrets' in the industry, such as the 'contract exclusive system'."

"There must be a lot of dry goods for such comics." Tachibana explained, "Will readers read this kind of manga full of dry goods? ”

"That's how I think about comics, if they're interesting, they'll be liked by readers. As long as you tell the interesting side of the subject matter, it's OK. This manga is serialized in a manga magazine, and readers are people who know a little bit about manga, and at the same time, they are also interested in the daily life of manga artists, the serialization meetings of the magazine, and maybe even voice actors or anime. These are all selling points and highlights, and this manga can also give readers an idea of the internal processes of the manga artist and the manga platform. That's what I expected from this manga. ”

"Using the 'unknown' as a selling point, it's kind of like 'intellectual curiosity'. Readers will be interested in areas that they are ignorant but not sure about. However, there is one point that the serialization process of Huaxia's magazine is not necessarily exactly the same as that of Zone 11, and if it is serialized in Zone 11, there should be obstacles. Tachibana shook his head.

Forget about other types of comics, the category of cartoonists is indeed related to the background, and the overall quality of comics in District 11 is slightly higher than that of Huaxia. If it is set in China, "Young Leap" or its website has no selling point at all.

"Then what do you mean......" Shen Xin heard some other meanings from Tachibana Gentry's Chinese.

"Set in District 11. The overall quality of "Shonen Leap" is higher than that of "Comic Future", and the main character is more difficult to challenge with "Shonen Leap" as the prototype of the serialization platform. ”

“……”

The muscles on Shen Xin's face twitched twice.

Set in Shonen Leap? It would be strange if it could be serialized in "Comic Future"!

Moreover, the script of "Mandao" has been completed a lot, and once the background is changed, there are many things to change.

Wang Wenhong was also a little dizzy, ""Youth Leap" can't be serialized monthly, right? ”

"Of course, but we also have online platforms and weekly magazines under our umbrella, which can be serialized." Tachibana Gentry answered without hesitation.

He said this not on a whim, but because "The Gate of Eternal Life" only has a few years left, and Shen Xin's next weekly work is definitely the best replacement. As long as Shen Xin is still painting, even if it is not serialized in "Youth Leap", it can still ensure Shen Xin's popularity and warm up for the next weekly work.

This is very important.

However, Comic Future has already given a reply and can be serialized in a weekly magazine...... Why don't you talk to Comic Future? Shen Xin pulled "Comic Future" out.

Set in Area 11, it's strange that Comic Future can agree to serialize.

"......" Tachibana said, his mouth open, and then he said stubbornly, "I will definitely visit Comic Future on my trip to Hongchuan, and I will mention this to them." But...... I want to borrow someone from you. ”

"Who?"

"Hui Asai...... I don't speak Huahua and need to find a translator. Tachibana was a little apprehensive, but his expression was extremely serious.

Shen Xin rubbed his forehead, he had been doing it for a long time, but the matter had not been negotiated, and he still had to take a person in.

No, you're too cheap, aren't you?

Shen Xin thought about it, and still put forward a condition, "I can lend it to you, you have to give her hard money, you can't let others work in vain, right?" ”
