Chapter 562: Influence and Depression
Even though the plot of "Steelcore" is still in the "Ishvar Rebellion", but because "King of Rock and Roll" was suddenly dissed by a music program, this comic has received a lot of criticism, so in the latest issue of the small book, "Steelcore" won the championship again.
This experience made Luo Zheng have a psychological burden when drawing comics, especially that the protagonist should have slapped his opponent in this sentence, but Luo Zheng had to stop publishing for a week because of this incident and redraw the original manuscript overnight.
So, the protagonist didn't finish slapping his face, but just used an excuse to fool this part of the plot.
The author fools the readers, and the readers fool the author with their votes, so "The King of Rock and Roll" was still No. 1 in the previous episode, and in the latest episode, it fell directly to No. 4.
Although it was not an avalanche, it was a big blow to Luo Zheng, who was aiming to be the first.
In Shen Xin's studio, the discussion of "King of Rock and Roll" is also very intense, but everyone is a comic practitioner, and compared with the decline in the ranking of "King of Rock and Roll", everyone is more willing to discuss the things behind the ranking.
"Anyway, didn't this matter also generate a topic? Why does "King of Rock and Roll" seem to have become a loser from the current point of view? Gao Hang couldn't help but ask between meals.
"So far, that's true. But one thing you have to be clear about is that the popularity list and the little book are two completely different lists. "The King of Rock and Roll" is on the popularity list, and its ranking has risen rapidly.
With the help of the previous wonderful plot, "The King of Rock and Roll" can be on the popularity list for a long time, but the small book is different - it is the vane of the author's creation, and its judgment is based on the quality of the latest episodes of the comics. The quality of "King of Rock and Roll" declined, and of course it suffered. Shen Xin explained.
"Brother Xin, then you say, does this influence have a big impact on Teacher Luo?" Xi Muhan said curiously.
"For works like manga and this kind of work, serializing while creating is the biggest advantage and the biggest disadvantage. Cartoonists can modify the story direction of the comic according to the reader's feedback to make it more acceptable to the reader, but the disadvantage is that the author's state will be affected by external factors. Just like this time, after this impact, when Mr. Luo draws the comic again, he will definitely think of this experience, and when he conceives the story, he naturally wants to avoid similar situations again. From this point of view, comics may lose their sharpness.
"Take "Ding Food" as an example, if someone says that your dishes can't be made at all, what will you do?"
"The dishes in "Ding Food" should be able to be made." Xi Muhan recalled.
"That's why I say 'if'...... Let me put it another way, readers can't make the dishes in the comics according to the recipes, or the dishes they make are not as delicious as the ones shown in the comics, and they think that the comics have deceived them, what do you do? ”
"And such people? The reader should be able to tell what is exaggerated and what is fake, right? Xi Muhan shook his head again and again.
"Other types of comics, maybe not; But food comics definitely have it! Because there are more than one or two people who are good cooks, even in a community. For example, some people say on the Internet that the ingredients you choose need to be specially treated, or that you can only eat certain parts of the ingredients, such as pufferfish. Eating this ingredient on a comic is an irresponsible manifestation to readers, because some readers may imitate it, and when the time comes, will you be able to create as much as ever? ”
Xi Muhan shook his head again and again with a black line.
"That's it. You'll also think about how to avoid these problems. So, there will definitely be a change in style. But that's not what I'm worried about. ”
"Huh?"
"You think, in this case, Mr. Luo's biggest backer is the magazine. After the magazine and the other party reached a settlement, some fans still harassed him, and the people who threatened him just disappeared without any substantive punishment, what do you guess Mr. Luo will think? ”
"However, a lawsuit is also quite time-consuming, and if it can be settled, it should be the most suitable, and it will be regarded as a bite." Liu Rui said.
"Reconciliation is of course the best solution, but it should not be Yishu culture and the other party's talk, but should be Mr. Luo and the other party's talk, at least Mr. Luo should know the whole process. I believe that Yishu Culture will compensate Luo Zheng, but ......" Shen Xin did not elaborate.
Luo Zheng should have received a material reward, but this was not necessarily what he wanted the most, and the anger in his heart should not have been vented yet.
It's hard for others to meddle in this kind of thing.
Xi Muhan grinned, "Ray of the Shonen Comics. There are a lot of districts. ”
"Take your time, right? The thunder points of shonen comics and shoujo comics are different.,In the process of creation,Like what a few boys like the heroine's plot,Try to come as little as possible.。 Otherwise, the results will be like riding a slide...... It could also be a free fall. Shen Xin thought for a while, "Except for love comics." ”
Like "Baseball Heroes" or "A Moment Together", it might be nice to deal with the relationship between the heroine and other male characters, if it's like "The Town Has You", well...... Heart congestion.
……
Luo Zheng's studio has become much quieter than before, but the quieter it is, the more unnatural it feels.
Xu Jie received the manuscript, looked at the drawn manuscript, bowed slightly, put the manuscript back in the envelope, looked at the name again, and nodded again.
"Mr. Luo, the 43rd issue of the magazine society in October will give you a curly color page, and when the time comes, I will trouble you."
This is also the compensation that the editorial department can give, and as for the compensation for Yishu culture, it is another matter.
"Hmm. Mr. Xu, I would like to wait until the end of the 43rd issue and suspend the journal for two weeks...... Adjust your mood. Luo Zheng said in a hunched position.
"Closed ......" Xu Jie's eyelids jumped.
"Hmm. If it's been this state all the time. I can't maintain a high quality of work. Moreover, some of the plots have been foreshadowed before, but they have not been shown in the comics, so I think I may be tired and take a break for a while. Luo Zheng said.
Xu Jie was stunned for a moment, looking at Luo Zheng who was painting at the desk, a little surprised.
At this time, Luo Zheng was quiet and not like him.
"Since you say so...... I know. I will report to the monk. Don't get too tired and take a break. Xu Jie patted Luo Zheng's shoulder and admonished.
When Xu Jie left with the name and the original painting, Luo Zheng put down the G pen and looked at the ink-stained hand.
This time was the most difficult moment of his life, and he even thought he was going to give up.
Yishu Culture finally stepped forward and settled the matter.
The other party's Weibo apology and compensation are all there, but what do you always feel short?
What is it exactly?
Xu Jie couldn't figure it out.
