"Sister Yan, how is this newcomer named 'Shen Xin'?" Xiaoli held the teacup and looked at Yan Fei who walked into the editing room with a smile.

Yan Fei looked at Xiaoli angrily, "Do your own job." ”

Xiaoli stuck out her tongue, dialed a phone casually, and after saying a few words, her expression eased a little.

When she hung up the phone, Yan Fei said, "What's wrong?" Look, not a good thing. ”

"If you don't get good grades, if you don't work hard, you're likely to be cut in half. I don't know how long that comic will be able to 'survive'. Xiaoli shrugged her shoulders.

Yan Fei nodded slightly.

If you don't get a good result, you have to cut it in half, which is the rule of the comic industry.

After the cut, the cartoonists are not left with nothing, and they can also receive the appropriate contract money from the magazine. However, if the manuscript cannot be submitted in a timely manner, the magazine has the right to terminate the contract and sweep the cartoonist out of the house.

For cartoonists, terminating the contract is a very cruel thing, but survival of the fittest has always been the norm of nature, even if Yan Fei feels unfair, she can't help it.

However, having said that, the manuscript that Shen Xin took today is indeed of high quality, and even the most eye-catching sub-grid of "The Witch" was easily surpassed by "Love Equation".

I'm looking forward to Shen Xin's long comics more and more......

"By the way, Xiaoli ......" Yan Fei suddenly remembered something.

"Huh?" Xiaoli picked up the small mirror and looked at her cheek.

"Have you read the book?" Yan Fei asked.

The small mirror almost fell from Xiaoli's hand, she looked around in a panic, and found that everyone else was busy with their own affairs, so she calmed down and combed her hair, "Sister Yan, what are you talking about?" I...... How could I possibly have seen those things? ”

"So, you don't know what Chen Zijiao's level is?" Yan Fei asked.

"Of course...... Sister Yan, didn't I say, how many of the painters of the same people use their real names? If it weren't for leaving contact information for Wang Wenhong, Shen Xin wouldn't have written his name on the cover, right? Xiaoli reminded.

Also.

Yan Fei nodded.

"However, the grapevine, you can listen to it and forget it." Xiaoli suddenly lowered her voice, "Do you know why Wang Wenhong takes a fancy to that kid?" ”

"I don't know."

"Painter. Especially in the portrayal of women, it is very delicate. It is said that Wang Wenhong just looked at the cover and was sure that this was the person he wanted. ”

…… It's dirty.

Yan Fei knew the meaning of Xiaoli's words, but it sounded a little weird.

Just then, a stocky middle-aged man walked into the office.

"Let's put down what we are doing first - have a meeting, have a meeting!" The middle-aged man clapped his hands twice and turned to leave.

The other editors put down their work and headed out the door.

"The editor-in-chief seems to be very unhappy." Yan Fei has been in "New World" for half a year, and she has never seen the editor-in-chief so anxious.

"It seems that the pressure brought by Dreamer is very high." Xiaoli bared her teeth and stood up from her seat.

Yan Fei also looked helpless, picked up the notepad, and followed Xiaoli out of the office.

……

Shen Xin returned home and put the name on the table.

Xi Muhan participated in the school's final sprint training camp to prepare for the upcoming high school entrance examination. Even if Shen Xin is not happy, he will show his hand tonight.

As soon as I grabbed a handful of rice, I suddenly remembered the taste of fried rice and poured the rice back on.

Cherish life and stay away from fried rice...... Why don't you eat instant noodles?

Bring hot water to a boil, pour over instant noodles, and press the seal with a notepad.

After doing all this, Shen Xin finally had time to recheck the name.

"Cut down two misunderstandings, but also attract people...... Not...... That's right, clash! There are often conflicts in online novels, and I don't know if it will be appropriate to use it here. But if you really use conflict, there must be foreshadowing in front of it, otherwise it will be too abrupt. In this way, in front of the comic, there should be a foreshadowing, the second or third misunderstanding, and the ...... should be deleted temporarily."

After taking a sip and eating instant noodles, Shen Xin picked up a pencil, quickly made a record, and then made changes to the name.

There are many similarities between this world and the earth, but there are also many differences, and the most prominent difference is on the Internet.

Take the cartoonist industry as an example, although a pen tablet has appeared, because the price is relatively high, and the investment in the early stage is relatively large, and because the technology is not yet mature, there is still a certain gap between the pen pressure of the pen tablet and the real paper and pen, so Shen Xin still uses traditional tools to paint.

At noon the next day, Shen Xin met with Yan Fei again and handed over the name to Yan Fei.

"80 points."

After Yan Fei watched it three times, she scored a more intuitive score.

"What's missing?" Shen Xin wondered.

"The storyboard is OK, the composition is OK, and even if it is printed and published, it is completely fine. But the relationship between the foreshadowing and the conflict behind is rather blunt – and, again, your 'potential' is not fully squeezed. ”

Squeeze?

Shen Xin has a black line, can you say it differently.

Ahem, you can't think crookedly.

"Can you be more specific?" Shen Xin asked in a low voice.

Yan Fei took a sip of coffee and said softly, "Please combine your style with the plot." ”

"My style?" Shen Xin asked.

"Yes, the foreshadowing and conflict are a bit stiff, but if you add elements that you're good at, you might be able to make this comic a classic." Yan Fei looked at Shen Xin, and her bright eyes unabashedly revealed her expectations for him.

"Excuse me, what are I good at?" Shen Xin was surprised.

"Fat ci."

Bah, you're good at fat ci!

Shen Xin was very dissatisfied with Yan Fei's "slander" against him.

"In "The Witch", your depiction of the fat ci and even the fruit body is quite good, this is a plus, I have already told you last time, but as a result, you still don't listen." Yan Fei emphasized again.

"That's the illustration from Pink Circle, and I'm just imitating it." Shen Xin hurriedly explained.

"None of this matters...... Yan Fei slapped the table with both hands, ignoring Shen Xin's protest, "I only care about the result, even if it's a short story, I have to overpower others." Unless...... You're not confident in yourself! ”

"What are you kidding?" Shen Xin's temper also came up, "Isn't it just a fat ci?" What's so hard about it? But give me three or four days...... I'm sure I've got all the plots straightened out. ”

"That's fine...... By the way, I would like to remind you that you are still a newcomer, so if you want to submit this cartoon to the conference, you must submit the original manuscript. A month and a half, is it enough? Yan Fei asked.

"Originals? Reluctantly, right? Shen Xin frowned.

The short story is not long throughout, and there is no long comic to consume energy.

However, because there is no assistant to help, all the content, including name, outline, black, white, paste, draw wireframes, and even erase pencil handwriting...... All of this has to be done by yourself – it's really time-consuming.

But as a newcomer, you must draw the original manuscript in advance, after all, before that, everyone's understanding of the newcomer is a blank piece of paper, so you must draw the original manuscript, so that the editor can see his own work, in order to get their approval.

This meeting finalized the general direction for the name of the comic, and the next thing Shen Xin had to do was to make adjustments to the name again in the shortest possible time.
