Chapter 829: Change

In November, Hongchuan, as in previous years, has already had a chill.

On the contrary, the comic market in Hongchuan is a different scene.

In the past six months, "Comic Future" launched a comic with the light family as the original work in the 33rd issue, called "Magic Creation World", and at the same time, Luo Zheng's new work "Idol Era" was serialized in "Comic Future", and the first few words have also been recognized by readers.

The serialization of three powerful works allowed "Comic Future" to finally stop its decline and stabilize at around 3 million copies after a continuous decline in sales.

At the same time, the light reading app is also gradually exerting force.

The author of "Magic World" Xi Feng serialized another light on the APP, "Daily Life in a Small World" is well-known to everyone in a relaxed and funny style, and the first volume of the single book has been repeatedly revised and has also been listed, and the sales of a single volume reached 130,000 copies in the first month.

For a book that has been serialized in the app, this sales volume is actually quite considerable.

In addition, the lightly modified comics serialized in the light reading have gradually gained a market - the popularity of the work has been determined by the feedback of light readers, and then changed from cartoonists to comics, which greatly reduces the risk of servant streets.

In a sense, the emergence of lightly modified comics has also alleviated the survival pressure of some comic practitioners - some cartoonists are not unable to draw, but cannot find a suitable script - but also because of this, it has led to the diversion of readers.

In one year, the sales of Comic Future fell by more than 1 million copies, which also had a lot to do with the diversion of apps.

Although the current comic app market is not as large as the magazine market, it has made great progress compared to before.

On the webtoon, there are a series of masterpieces such as "Age of the Gods", "Sky Wolf", "Holy Martial Arts Academy", "Doomsday Rescue", etc., and the overall quality is very high, but correspondingly, the quality of paper magazines, to be precise, after the end of "DN", it is difficult to find a work that can stabilize "Age of the Gods".

Wang Yunze, after all, is Wang Yunze.

When good cartoonists gradually moved to webtoons, it also represented the rise of webtoons and the decline of paper magazines.

In fact, more than one person has felt this tendency, especially those who are comic practitioners, who are more concerned about the trend of manga and want to know the predictions of experts about the future trend of manga.

As a result, in the comic school, there are teachers who teach all kinds of predictions.

“…… Now, we can know that the strip comic is actually similar to the previous four-panel comics. However, the advantages of strip comics are also not available in four-panel comics. First, the strip comics are mostly color pages, which has a greater visual impact on the reader, and second, the strip comics can tell a complete story, while the four-panel comics require the creators to create a complete story within four grids, and the continuity between each story is not strong......"

A balding elderly man stands on the lectern with his hands in his hands, reading a manuscript at his desk.

“…… Therefore, the battle between paper comics and webtoons will definitely end in the victory of webcomics, and strip comics will also dominate in webcomics, because mobile phone screens are more suitable for strip comics...... Everyone must shift their energy to the strip man......"

Lu Ning rolled her eyes, listening to the old man's lecture, but her eyes were aimed out the window.

She also convinced herself, and she came here with nothing to spend money on, listening to a group of people who were not as good as herself, which was really idle.

Lu Ning is not good at stories, and because she has switched from shoujo comics to shonen comics, she often lacks explosiveness in the expression of her pictures.

But what about these teachers? Many of them have not been serialized on "Comic Future", and even if they do, they are cut in half in 100 episodes.

Although the high school teachers of the students of Yenching University may not also have graduated from Yenching University, Lu Ning is already equivalent to a student of "Yenching University" and has successfully graduated, so there is no need to listen to these ......

It's like throwing money into the water.

has already paid the money, and Lu Ning can only think so.

The bell rang outside, Lu Ning stuffed the books into the drawer, and as soon as he got up, two male students leaned up.

"This classmate, can we have a meal together?"

Lu Ning wore a flat mirror and after simple makeup, her skin was delicate and shiny, and her facial features were more exquisite.

Compared with the raunchy appearance at work, her appearance has changed too much, the whole person seems to be two or three years younger, the whole person is not only beautiful, but also much more mature, and it is easier to attract the attention of others.

In fact, this is the case in any industry, and beauties have always been more likely to be favored.

Lu Ning glanced at the two of them, the person who spoke had fine skin and tender meat, and he looked good, that is...... Big brother, the nose hair is out, you can take the time to fix it.

The other boy has a small flat head and is medium-looking, not annoying or likable.

She didn't have much interest in such a person, and was about to refuse, when her phone suddenly rang.

Lu Ning glanced at her phone and said to the two of them apologetically, "I'm sorry, I have an appointment." ”

After speaking, Lu Ning ignored the looks of the two people, and left the classroom while answering the phone.

The call was from Ji Yinxuan, asking her if she had time to come to the studio, which is the building in Shen Xincheng.

Faced with Ji Yinxuan's invitation, Lu Ning accepted it without thinking.

One thing to say, Ji Yinxuan also belongs to the more unlucky kind of person.

When I started my business, I hadn't found a suitable text yet, and for Ji Yinxuan, the pressure could be imagined.

Fortunately, she has a very powerful father, who took over a mobile game from Zhenyu Technology to maintain the normal operation of the studio without much problem.

But in this way, although she has her own studio, she is still controlled by others in her creation.

She didn't like that.

As for Lu Ning, she served as the character of this mobile game, so there was a certain cooperation between her and Ji Yinxuan.

Lu Ning bought two hamburgers and a glass of Coke at a fast-food restaurant, and then took a ride to Ji Yinxuan's studio in the new town.

The building has a total of 12 floors, the first to third floors are used by Ji Yinxuan, and the other floors are used by Shen Xin and his studio.

Lu Ning looked at this building and was really hot-eyed.

It's already exciting to have a studio of your own, and more importantly, the assistant's residence is also in this building, which means that the creative efficiency will be greatly improved.

However, having such a studio inevitably involves a huge amount of expenses, and she can't afford such a large amount of money with only one comic of "Ding Shi", so this idea ...... Just think about it.

Lu Ning carried the hamburger and came to the studio on the third floor, but saw Ji Yinxuan holding her cheeks, staring at the screen in front of her, and at the same time, scrolling the central axis of the mouse differently.

"What's wrong?" Lu Ning put the bun and hamburger on the coffee table and asked puzzled.

"Oh, you may need to design new standing paintings to add some new characters, so I'm sorry for you to come over." Ji Yinxuan rubbed her eyes, and Xia Luo handed a copy of the material to Lu Ning.

Lu Ning roughly flipped through the materials, there should be four or five characters, so he put the characters away, "If there are more materials like this, it is better to send them directly to my mailbox?" It's also a little faster. ”

"Yes. What about your side? Ji Yinxuan asked.

Lu Ning shook her head, "Disappointed...... I thought I could learn something, but as a result, I still looked too highly at the teachers of those manga schools. I won't go again, and the tuition fees have been wasted. ”

"I've also dealt with those people and wanted to ask them to create their own characters, but the quality was not good, so I had to commission professional illustrators or cartoonists in the end. I think that if you really want to learn storyboarding, it is better to study with Mr. Shen for a while. ”

"I want to too, but didn't Mr. Shen come back?" Lu Ning sighed.

Ji Yinxuan also rubbed her forehead when she heard this-half a year, after the two of them played around in Europe, they flew to Area 11 a few days ago, and she didn't know when the two of them would come back.
