"Golden Brush ......"

Yuan Zhe sat at his desk, his brows furrowed.

According to the protocol, the "Golden Brush" will be divided into two main stages.

The first stage is the entry stage, and all works signed before June 30 are eligible to participate.

The second stage is the selection stage.

There are also two sub-stages in the selection stage, firstly, the top 10 works are selected according to the voting competition of the works; After that, a jury consisting of the editor-in-chief, the CEO, the heads of each company, and selected star cartoonists will select the Golden Brush Award and the Silver Brush Award.

There is a clause in the selection rules that allows the award to be vacant.

This means that not only may the Golden Brush Award not be produced, but even the Silver Brush Award may not be produced in five.

Feng Shuo ...... Or the current multi-manga network has drawn a "big pie" with a gimmick of 10 million, but no one knows whether this "big pie" really has 10 million.

In fact, in private, Tong Yu also clearly told Yuan Zhe that the only criterion for judging whether a work won the "Golden Brush" award is not the quality of the comics, but whether the comics have commercial value.

To put it more bluntly, it's to see if there are companies willing to pay for these comics.

Therefore, readers vote only to screen out comics of acceptable quality, and whether these works will win awards in the future is decided by the organizing committee.

The reason why I joined the person in charge of the company is to exclude works that are "popular but not popular".

For commercial companies, they would rather their work be "popular rather than popular", and of course, it would be great if they could achieve both fame and fortune.

Therefore, the early reader vote is particularly important.

Monthly members, 3 tickets per person per month, 10 yuan per work, automatically vote for the work, and at the same time, it is stipulated that the author is prohibited from swiping the ticket, once found, the qualification will be cancelled.

In fact, the website does not strictly prohibit ticket swiping, but it can only be swiped by rewarding the work.

This is a rule that has been drawn up for a long time.

Yuan Zhe also understands that the magazine is not a charity, and it must be profitable.

He is now afraid that these works will not be able to produce comics of the level of "Golden Brush".

The grand prize of 5 million, how can it be so easy to come out?

Having said that, the quality of the top-ranked comics is okay.

Of course, it can't be compared with "Game", but there are a few works that have indeed reached the level of second-tier signature comics, and when the time comes, it may not be impossible to catch fire.

The work is like that, half by hype, half by quality.

However, this selection is also not too friendly to the author, that is, before the work is signed, the author has no other income except for the reward.

This is also one of the main reasons that affect the quality of comics - the author must fill his stomach before he can create.

Therefore, Yuan Zhe gave the editorial department the task of judging whether the entries meet the contract conditions according to the content of the three to five episodes.

If it is met, the contract must be mailed as soon as possible to avoid the outflow of excellent works, or the author due to lack of funds, resulting in TJ.

Of course, the contract fee will be very low, about four or five thousand.

If it is other industries, it may seem like a lot of money, but for cartoonists, this money is not enough.

But,Fortunately, there's a monthly share.,If the work is really good.,Not to mention the amount of money you can make.,At least it's much better than those serials that can't be single-lined.。

Due to the shortened contract period, the editorial department has also become very busy.

Qian Sheng handed a form to Yuan Zhe, "This is our second batch of lists, a total of 15 copies. ”

"15 copies? ...... less than last month" Yuan Zhe took the list and read it roughly.

"There's no way, cartoonists who have the ability to create on their own have already started serializing. Many of the participating authors use their spare time to create, and in order to complete the number of pages, these people imitate Mr. Fu and only draw names to attract readers. Mr. Fu was able to do this because he himself had a certain reputation in the forum, and he was recognized by the editor of "Comic Future".

"Generally speaking, if you look at the drafts, you can't judge their workmanship. Although it is good to have an interesting manga story, there are still some people who think that a comic with good graphics is worth the investment.

"There are also some comics that are relatively complete, probably because of college students. In this part, the story is quite exciting, but the painting skills really need to be sharpened. The proportions of the figure's body are out of proportion, and the movements are stiff ......"

Qian Sheng didn't finish his words, so he sighed.

"These people are the blood of the comic book industry, and I think we need to be different from traditional magazines, especially Comic Future." Yuan Zhe knocked on the table twice.

If a newcomer wants to become a manga artist, it is not achieved overnight, and it takes a lot of time to sharpen.

Of course, there are cartoonists who have become famous in one fell swoop, but those people can actually be classified as "geniuses", however, many people are not geniuses.

"What's the difference?"

"To be able to make a group of people, not one or twenty people, can make a living in the cartoonist industry. If we can do this, then Duoman.com will be more attractive than magazines. ”

"Feng Shuo...... Will the people above agree? Qian Sheng asked.

Yuan Zhe shook his finger, "When Mr. Tong invited me, we had already negotiated, unless there is a large area of losses in Duoman.com, otherwise, I can make my own decisions about all projects." ”

"Then what do you mean ......"

"I'm wondering if I can open a special channel for students or newcomers...... By the way, authors can be graded. This also allows the author to develop a sense of competition. Anyone who has played the game knows that leveling up is addictive. Yuan Zhe explained.

Qian Sheng nodded.

The difficulty of this part is mainly in the technical department, and the demand for funds is not large.

"By the way, when will the app of the website be ready?" Yuan Zhe asked.

"Uh...... April or May at the earliest? After it is made, it will be tested internally, so it is difficult to say the specific time. ”

"I'm thinking about one thing......"

"Huh?"

"Let Mr. Wang's work be released on the app. Since we have Mr. Wang's 'help', we must make good use of this advantage. ”

"Then I'll go and check the progress of Mr. Wang's new work?"

"It's for the best." Yuan Zhe nodded, "Please." ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do." Qian Sheng smiled.

"And ...... The list of the first batch of signed authors will be posted on Weibo and the comic network app, and the list and income of the top 20 monthly authors will also be uploaded. ”

"Huh?" Qian Sheng didn't react at the first time.

"Let those ordinary cartoonists see that we also have an advantage over traditional magazines." Yuan Zhe said seriously.
