Chapter 1185: Analysis

"If it's another profession, such as a chef, cooking a dish, even if it's a slightly more troublesome dish, can usually be done in a few hours, but a manga serialization, which takes several months to put it simply, is usually a manga that is cut in half. Without results, it is impossible to serialize. It's a little longer, and it's serialized for three or four years, but because of the nature of the cartoonist's profession, most of it ...... The vast majority, 99%, is painting in the studio, and no matter how good you are, it is impossible to make the serialized plot always fresh. Shen Xin saw that Xi Muhan didn't say anything, and continued.

"But there should be editors, and there are stories of other cartoonists, right?" Xi Muhan's face turned red and retorted to Shen Xin.

"That's right, but the cartoonists who are serializing, except for the annual meeting, how can they have time to make friends with other cartoonists? You know the deadline, right? If the protagonist is serialized, the editor will not do too much, usually a reminder, even if there are one or two emergencies, it can only be used as a 'regulator', not as a conventional technique. As for the other cartoonists...... It's not impossible, but the appearance of these cartoonists should be the main line of the protagonist and lead to these cartoonists, right? Also, there are too many manga artists in the work, and the story will become unprioritized, right? Shen Xin tried to explain.

In "Dream Eater", Sincerity Supreme and Akito Takagi are very powerful and talented, but it was not until the fifth work that there was a chance to serialize.

As long as the manga is not serialized, Takagi and the highest will have to find a way to make the manga serialized, and for this, the two have suffered a lot. During this period, Makoto first worked as an assistant to his new wife Eiji, and later, due to a misunderstanding, Takagi temporarily disbanded.

In addition to the realistic description of the manga artist's environment, the series of operations of the big thrush is to speed up the pace of the story through frequent changes of works, so that the reader's eyes will not always stay in the protagonist's studio.

Once the environment stands still, and what the two protagonists do, the story loses its twists.

Later, the two were serialized with "Detective TRAP". But if this work is serialized for too long, the progress of "Dream Eater" will stagnate again, so Dachang Thrush uses an operation that is difficult for ordinary people to imagine, and it is very bonus - the highest is due to the accumulation of illness due to painting, and is forced to be hospitalized to stop serialization.

This plot not only deepened the feelings of the hero and heroine, but also successfully cut "Detective TRAP", so Sincerity and Takagi had to start again, using short stories to contribute, and strive for the opportunity to be serialized.

The reason why the big thrush arranges the plot like this, in addition to highlighting the difficulty of newcomers, the protagonist keeps switching works, and also adds new content to "Dream Eater", so that readers rush to freshness.

In the same way, in a series of copyists, the protagonist is also in order to speed up the pace, constantly launching new works, and giving the protagonist honor, in fact, this is also the reason.

Even if it is difficult to realize the operation of the protagonist in reality, those experienced industry professionals do not feel doubtful, which is unreasonable in itself, but in order to let more readers accept the work, the author usually chooses "cool" between "cool" and "real".

The biggest difference from the online article is that Obara Thrush is a cartoonist and is very familiar with the process of creating comics, so he knows how to speed up the pace, how to create conflicts and add different elements to the sincerity.

If you want the first article to be long, the pace will slow down a lot, and the reader may not be patient or interested.

"What's more, you have to think about it, the protagonists of shonen manga are usually only in their teens, and at most under the age of thirty. Even if the protagonist starts serializing at the age of 18 — which, you know, is an exaggeration — the manga ends when the protagonist is 30 years old. In 12 years, did the protagonist create only three works? Even, if you want to create a work that is recognized by readers and magazines, you must have a long serial. In other words, in the manga, the main character is likely to draw only 2 works...... Isn't that too monotonous? Shen Xin said the worry in his heart.

Xi Muhan's mouth opened slightly, and he scratched his head again.

If the protagonist only draws two or three comics, there is really nothing to write, and besides, cartoonists are a profession at home, and their daily work is just to draw scripts, and if they really fall into this strange circle, if they don't do it well, the story will be really boring.

Thinking about this, Xi Muhan's heart suddenly became empty, and his eyes were a little moist.

Seeing this scene, Shen Xin also became nervous and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Brother, am I useless?"

"Huh?"

"There's no way to use you as the protagonist and create comics ......" Although Xi Muhan didn't cry, his lost eyes still made Shen Xin feel heartache.

"There's no need to take me as the protagonist...... Shen Xin took a deep breath, "For me, if you really want to create a work with a comic theme, it's best to be of some help to new cartoonists, so that they can understand the comic industry, and let them know that this bowl of rice is not easy to eat." If you want to become a cartoonist, you have to give up a lot of ...... Own, family's. Whether it's comics or anything else, it's never easy to succeed. ”

"Brother, aren't you going to be smooth sailing?" Xi Muhan retorted.

"Me? I'm not all smooth sailing......" Shen Xin thought back on the past ten years after the crossing, and felt a lot of emotion.

He's gone from "New World" to "Comic Future", and he's partnered with Duoman.com, and "SLAM DUNK" has been serialized in two top magazines at the same time, which is easy to say because of the existence of a comic capsule - but his journey along the way, it has not been easy.

"Also, I think it would be very meaningful to draw such a manga."

Xi Muhan closed his eyes when he heard this, and when he opened his eyes, the whole person became very energetic.

"What's wrong?" Shen Xin was confused when he saw the change in Xi Muhan's expression.

"Nothing." Xi Muhan took a deep breath, "I decided, according to Brother Xin's meaning, draw the next comic......"

"Really? Great work. Shen Xin thanked Xi Muhan, "By the way, if there is any arrangement, you must communicate with Brother Wang and Sister Yan in time, they have a lot of experience as editors, and they have seen a lot of emergencies, maybe these can be put in the name......"

Halfway through speaking, Shen Xin's words came to an abrupt end, and just when Xi Muhan was wondering, Shen Xin reminded again: "When communicating with Brother Wang, you must pay attention, don't put those things that can't be put on the table, I'm afraid that I will teach the children badly." ”

“……”

Xi Muhan couldn't cry or laugh, it turned out that Shen Xin was also worried.

The next day, Xi Muhan conveyed Shen Xin's words to Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei, and the two nodded again and again after hearing it.

"Layer by layer, not only can the mistakes often made by newcomers be expressed through the protagonist or other cartoonists, but also can speed up the progress of the story, so that readers can clearly feel the progress of the protagonist. I think it's good. After thinking about it carefully, Wang Wenhong said seriously.

"Teacher Shen is not here, so you don't need to pat the horse." Yan Fei glanced at Wang Wenhong with white eyes.

"I'm serious!" Wang Wenhong was also anxious and hurriedly explained.

"That ......" Xi Muhan took a deep breath and interrupted the two of them, "In the future, please help me." Although Brother Xin didn't say it, I have a goal in mind, although it is not as good as Brother Xin's previous comics, but this time...... I hope not to discredit him. As Brother Xin said, the sales may not be as good as the previous comics, but we must ensure the quality of the work! Please. ”

"Rest assured...... I've been with Mr. Shen for so long, and it's the first time I've encountered this kind of comic that is completely checked by us, and I believe that Yan Fei is also in this mood, so please rest assured, although it is a comic-themed comic, my goal is to have an average volume of one million. Wang Wenhong said with a smile.

Xi Muhan also nodded, her thoughts were similar to Wang Wenhong's.

Shen Xin, her, Wang Wenhong, and Xi Muhan, except for Shen Xin's strength overflowing, the other three people are almost the same, even if it is Xi Muhan, who has been in the industry for the shortest, she also has two pillar comics in hand.

This is almost a work that makes her show her strength...... It is also what she has been most looking forward to accomplishing since joining this studio, so she will do her best without anyone else's words.
