Chapter 1163: Pressure
Wei Mao's matter has caused a lot of heated discussions in the comic circle, although many companies want to cool down this topic, but in forums like Manjia.com, this matter has become the center of public opinion.
Whether it is readers or cartoonists, they are all upset about Wei Mao, but there are also reasonable people who remind the people in the forum not to stand in line for now, and wait for more information to come out.
There are even more people who gloat, putting forward the view of "I just said how could he become popular so quickly, it turned out that someone threw money", and it was recognized by many people.
Locally, many peers have complained about cartoonists like Wei Mao, who quickly became popular by relying on only half of the comics, and now they are aware that Wei Mao has this kind of secret, and they have also published posts against it on the Internet.
"I'll just say, how did Wei Mao become popular so quickly, there was a deal behind it."
"It's good that this kind of cartoonist disappeared quickly, and the exposure was so high that as a result, the average volume is less than 500,000 copies."
"Haha...... It turns out that cartoonists who can only draw comics are no longer good, and compared with these hype people, honest cartoonists will only get more and more backward. β
"Come on, the hype also costs money. This is bad money driving out good money, and good comics are covered up by these manga that like to operate because there is no hype. In the future, there is no need to compare the quality of comics? Just look at whether the cartoonist has the financial backing behind them. β
"The poorer the poor cartoonist, the lower the quality of the comics, forming a vicious circle."
"On which platform was Full House originally serialized? Later, I avoided the point of submission, and the province was disgusted. β
β¦β¦
Wei Mao was caught in the center of the whirlpool of public opinion, with supporters and opponents, and among these opponents, there was no shortage of heated rhetoric.
And no matter how Wei Mao made some people dissatisfied, at least in the eyes of most people, he was also one of the victims, and the initiator must be the one who talked to Wei Mao.
Who is that man?
This has become a problem for many people.
Actually, it's not necessarily a problem.
For the majority of netizens, there is no one who can't be found, and they can even dig out a person's black history through clues.
It was also the next night that the identity of the person who was talking to Wei Mao was found out.
Fan Yinmo, a young man in his twenties.
A person can negotiate a contract with Wei Mao, which means that this person named Fan Yinmo should not be bad.
It didn't take long for Fan Yinmo's other identity to be dug up.
"I'll go, Fan Yinmo turned out to be a masker!"
βmaskerοΌ Why is it so familiar? β
"Of course it's familiar, he is the author of "Doomsday Rescue" and won the second Golden Brush Award, so he should have been around 20 years old at the time, right? It is said that after Mr. Shen, another genius in the comic industry, I don't know why, after "Doomsday Rescue", there has been no work, and it turns out that I started to be a boss. β
"If Fan Yinmo is a cartoonist, why is he so stingy. Squeeze Mr. Wei Mao's manuscript fee? Why is a cartoonist suffering as a cartoonist? β
"The progress of the situation is eye-catching, and it turns out to be a matter between cartoonists."
"It's uncomfortable, I'm also a reader of Doomsday Rescue, what should I do!? Who am I rooting for? β
"Although masker is younger than Mr. Wei Mao, he debuted very early, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Mr. Wei Mao is the senior, and it may even be that Mr. Wei Mao is the guide on the road of comics, treating a newcomer like this...... Masker-sensei can do it too!? β
ββ¦β¦β
Fan Yinmo didn't expect that he would be picked up.
After learning about this news, he immediately found the evidence circulating on the Internet, it turned out that the bracelet he often brought was completely consistent with the bracelet that participated in the Golden Brush Award ceremony at that time, which made Fan Yinmo and masker equal. And according to factors such as height, body shape, and the clothes on his body, it is determined that he is the person who is Fan Yinmo, and he must know him, otherwise he is the person who has worked with him, and now he is fighting for Wei Mao.
"I'm a ......"
Fan Yinmo was so angry that he took off the bracelet and threw it into the trash.
What's next?
What to do?
Fan Yinmo bit his nails, his legs kept shaking, and his heart was even more troubled.
Shi Lei, who came out of his studio and went downstairs to get a drink, saw Fan Yinmo sitting on the sofa in the living room, grinned, got two cans of Coke from the refrigerator, and handed one of them to Fan Yinmo.
Fan Yinmo had no intention of drinking Coke, put the Coke on the coffee table, and when he saw that Shi Qun was about to leave, he suddenly stopped Shi Qun.
"What's wrong, Teacher Fan?" Shi Qun turned around and looked at Fan Yinmo.
"Are you...... Are you also ready to leave me? Fan Yinmo asked.
"Huh? How so? Shi Qun shook his head.
"The tree fell and the macaque scattered...... You must be thinking so......" Fan Yinmo stared at the stone group.
The stones were silent.
He and Fan Yinmo have known each other for a long time, and it is the first time he has seen Fan Yinmo so nervous.
Thinking about it, Fan Yinmo has been smooth sailing since he came into contact with comics. Founded a studio, although a lot of investment was made in the early stage, but with "The Demon King's Tutor" and "No Demons in the World", it was also able to break even, and after the fire of "Warm Full House", the studio finally began to make money.
Along the way, Fan Yinmo has not even encountered anything too difficult, and this time he was captured and rescued, which should be the first time Fan Yinmo has faced so much public opinion - and most of them are blamed.
When a person first becomes the center of public opinion, the pressure he faces is difficult for outsiders to imagine.
"Not really. Who would pay me if I didn't have you? Shi Qun asked.
"Huh?" Fan Yinmo was stunned.
"Although I make less money, it's more important than stability. I'm not sure if the next manga will be a hit......" Shi Qun scratched his head in embarrassment.
He prefers stability to the ups and downs of life.
He was a little scared.
"That's ...... ...... "Fan Yinmo rubbed his hands, only to find that his palms were already covered with sweat at some point.
"You...... You okay? Shi Qun asked uncertainly.
"It's not ......" Fan Yinmo took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality, "As long as you don't rebel. Change, I'll be fine. β
"Do you want to talk to Wei Mao?"
"Talk to him? Who does he think he is? He's me holding it up! Shall I talk to him? If other comics follow his example, my studio won't be able to open? Fan Yinmo was like a wounded beast, his eyes were bloodshot, and the stones were startled.
Shi Qun grinned, "You can't go on like this, right?" At least talk to someone about it. β
"Talking to someone? How can there be ...... There are ......" Fan Yinmo patted his forehead, "Okay...... I know how to do it......"
"Huh?" Shi Qun looked at Fan Yinmo in surprise.
Fan Yinmo took out a piece of paper and wiped the sweat on his forehead and hands, "Let me ask my family, what should I do in this situation, wouldn't it be good?" β
Yes? Family?
Shi Qun rarely heard Fan Yinmo mention his family, "Are you asking them to help?" β
"No, I don't. We have plenty of funds and don't need to look for them, but ......" Fan Yinmo pointed to his temple, "I want to know how to solve the current dilemma." β
Shi Qun didn't make a sound, just laughed awkwardly.
He also wanted to know how to solve the current dilemma...... It's just that he has limited ability and can't think of any good ideas - even if he knows, he won't speak, and if something goes wrong, he will be blamed by Fan Yinmo and even take responsibility.
He couldn't afford it.
