Chapter 813: Fair or Not
"In principle, Comic Future will not be serialized or lightly modified manga." Yu Chen said coldly.
"Comic Future" also has works that combine the original work with the drawing, but there are few minor adaptations to the comics.
If there are exceptions, maybe "Crime and Punishment" is considered a one, but Su Han also drew the name first, and then published it.
Compared with comics like "Ding Shi", which are separated from the original and the painting, it seems to be about the same, both of which are cooperated by the original and cartoonists, but the two types are fundamentally different.
Light creation, the most time-consuming content is to conceive the plot and code words, creating a chapter, the time consumed is much shorter than creating a comic.
What does this mean?
This means that as long as the light family is not lazy, the light plot will always be in front of the comics. Moreover, this situation is also different from manga and animation.
The frequency of serialization of manga and anime is once a week. As long as the anime doesn't stop, the plot will always catch up with the manga.
And all the light that can adapt comics has been released in several single copies, and has been recognized by the market, and the progress of light comics is difficult to catch up with light.
At the same time, the light comic also conveys a message to the reader, which is the original work, if the comic has a different plot from the light, the reader will focus on the light, and the comic will be in a secondary position.
Whether it's a light manga or an anime, their role is nothing more than to help sell books - not to sell comics, but to light.
On the market, there are very few sales of lightly modified comics, which exceed this situation - no matter how good the plot of lightly modified comics is, it is difficult to surpass light, not to mention that light plots are faster than comics.
So, even if the most famous lightly modified manga of "Kaichuang Bunko", what about serialization in "Comic Future"?
The sales of the magazine may increase, but the sales of the single book of the comic may not be a big seller.
Doing wedding dresses for others, Yu Chen won't do it?
Therefore, Yu Chen was reluctant to cooperate with this cooperation from the beginning.
"Now, man, Comic Future lacks a good draft." Kong Xian said when she saw Yu Chen's expression.
"I'll figure it out." Yu Chen glanced at the coffee cup, "Sister Kong, the coffee is good, but I'm full." Leave. ”
Seeing Yu Chen stand up, Kong Xian also hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother, aren't you worried about the sales of "Comic Future"? If the sales fall further, I am afraid that your position as editor-in-chief will not be guaranteed, right? Stop being stubborn. ”
"If the single book of the light comic book does not sell well, and my position is also unstable, is there any difference?" Yu Chen asked rhetorically.
"A little more, a little more. Right? Kong Xian smiled, "Besides, if Dong Bao or Mr. Shang embarrass you because of this matter, you can put all the blame on me, okay?" ”
Yu Chen stared at Kong Xian coldly, and the two of them froze with each other for ten seconds.
Suddenly, Yu Chen chuckled, "How can this kind of thing make Sister Kong take the blame?" After all, Sister Kong is also for "Comic Future". Or, right? ”
Speaking of this, Yu Chen paused and touched his chin, "If Sister Kong promises me three conditions, it is not impossible to serialize the comic in "Comic Future". ”
"Brother, if you have the conditions, just say it, I will try my best to agree." Kong Xian said with a smile.
"Simple. I won't embarrass Sister Kong. First, even if it is the home recommended by you, Sister Kong, his works must also be serialized in "Young Future" first to test the water. If the quality is OK, I'll let it be serialized in "Comic Future".
"Comic Future is never short of drafts, it's about pillar comics. If you can't make it in Shonen Future, how can you compete with the other comic artists in Comic Future? The best light home in "Qichuang Library", shouldn't you be able to do this? ”
Kong Xian nodded, "No problem, I'm confident." Like you said, if you can't prove the value of the work on "Shonen Future", there really is no need to serialize it on "Comic Future". ”
"That's fine. The second and third conditions, the requirements are a little higher. First of all, Comic Future only accepts names, not authors. Comic Future is the best comic magazine in the country, targeting domestic comic lovers, not readers. ”
Kong Xian frowned, "Some of our light families are amateurs, so they may not have time to draw names?" ”
"Then find a comic who has time."
"They didn't draw names." Kong Xian said again.
"Who doesn't have a first time?" Yu Chen shrugged his shoulders, not giving Kong Xian a chance to continue answering, and continued, "The third condition, if it is determined to be serialized on "Comic Future", after the comic releases the second volume of the single book, light can be serialized on the platform, this platform includes but is not limited to light reading and "Qichuang Library", and the progress of light must be forever diffused in comics. ”
Kong Xian's eyes widened, and she didn't know how to reply.
Yu Chen's third condition was to tell her that in this cooperation, she would be at a disadvantage.
"Mr. Yu, don't you think it's unfair? It's like you're asking for it unilaterally. Kong Xian thought for more than ten seconds before she said hard.
"Yes, I don't think it's fair. But in this world, there doesn't seem to be absolute fairness, right? It's easy to want to be fair. When "Qichuang Library" becomes the No. 1 light magazine in China, and the sales volume catches up with "Comic Future", let's talk about equal cooperation. ”
Yu Chen tidied up his collar and his expression returned to normal.
Kong Xian was depressed in her heart, but she couldn't do anything.
Everywhere, it's all about strength.
The gap between "Qichuang Library" and "Comic Future" is really too big, and every page of "Comic Future" is also extremely precious.
"That'...... I'm thinking about it. Kong Xian took a deep breath and forced a smile.
Yu Chen nodded, and was about to turn around, when he remembered one more thing, "Sister Kong, there is another point, which is also very important. Please be sure to tell the light family,"Comic Future" adopts the last elimination system.,The new serialized work will have a protection period of 10 words.,Serialized more than 10 words.,Or can't submit the manuscript normally.,No matter what the work,,Will be cut in half.。 What you recommend, is no exception. ”
"That's the fourth condition." Kong Xian reminded.
"Uh...... So four conditions, right? Yu Chen nodded.
After Yu Chen left, Kong Xian sat back in her office chair depressedly, took out a pack of women's cigarettes from the drawer of her desk, lit it, and took a deep breath.
The first three conditions have a stronger meaning in form, and what is fatal is the words added by Yu Chen.
Comic Future's decision to cut it in half means that Light must follow the rules of Comic Future, otherwise, the work is likely to face a cut in half.
The implication is that "Qichuang Library" has no control over the direction of this light story.
A female editor tapped on the glass door, and Kong Xian nodded, casually extinguishing the cigarette.
"Sister Kong, how are you talking?" The female editor asked.
Kong Xian shook her head.
"That'...... What to do? ”
"What else can I do? We have to pick up a few powerful light families, and it's hard to do that with Comic Future. Suffer...... Let's just eat it first, right? ”
Ren Kongxian has a lot of ideas, and there is no way to make up for the gap in strength between the two magazines.
