A few people brought the ramen, and Uematsuno added some miso, and ate it in a big gulp, he was really hungry.

Kaga ramen is different from the ramen of the 11th district, and the difference is mainly in the stock and side dishes.

There are many side dishes, the stock is good, and the price is naturally rising.

Since Shen Xin and Zhi Songye need to use Yan Fei or Wang Wenhong's translation to talk, now that the ramen has been served, the people at the table will honestly finish the noodles first, otherwise it will be too unsightly.

After drinking a mouthful of broth, Shen Xin's whole body was warm, and the chill was dispelled cleanly, but when he came out of the ramen restaurant, the cold wind blew again, and people couldn't help but shiver.

"Teacher Shen, what did you just say...... If you want to make new people grow, you need not only the efforts of new people, but also the environment provided by the platform. What does the platform do? As he was leaving, Uematsuno asked.

"Huh?" Shen Xin scratched his head, "'Young Leap' must know." They know better than I know what to do, but I don't think they can do it. ”

"Why?"

"Whether it's a comic magazine or a comic website, they're all for-profit organizations. If it can make money, the magazine will definitely throw money, but if it can't make a profit, or, if there is no gain in the short term, the magazine will not take the initiative to make changes. It takes courage for the first person to eat crabs, and even more so for the first magazine to make a change. Shen Xin shook his head.

Cultivating new talents has always been a thankless job, and "Shonen Leap" usually eliminates at the end based on small books, and can indeed screen out a group of good cartoonists, however, once the talent withers, it will be in trouble.

In fact, this is true not only for "Shonen Leap", but also for the entire comic industry.

Cartoonists have been diverted by the advent of online platforms, and the best group of cartoonists will not necessarily submit to Shonen Leap.

On Earth, the situation is similar in "Shonen Jump", after the end of "Death" and "Fire", it is difficult to pull out a manga with an average volume of more than one million volumes, except for "Pirates" and "Full-Time Hunter".

The volumes of "Volleyball Junior" and "Hero Academia" are both likely or have exceeded one million, but other comics that are being serialized are somewhat different.

The shrinking of the paper market has objectively reduced the sales of comics, and it is difficult for other cartoonists to create phenomenal works, and even, under heavy pressure, the originally promising comics will collapse.

After the appearance of Nagi thistle, the plot of "The Spirit of the Halberd" took a sharp turn, which may also be related to excessive pressure. The hasty acceleration led to the weakness of the later story, and even the original setting of the comic collapsed.

If you want to ask Shen Xin what to do, if he knew, he would have started the magazine a long time ago.

But one thing is for sure, newcomers are important, and so is the market. Sometimes it's not that comics are bad, it's that the work isn't popular in the market.

No matter what magazine it is, there is more than one comic that is not popular.

"Yes." Uematsuno thought that he drew commercial comics, and manga magazines were business magazines.

Unless it is profitable, the magazine will not act rashly.

"MR. SHEN, "SLAM DUNK" IS VERY GOOD, BUT ...... I'm not going to sit back either. Still, I'm looking forward to the follow-up to SLAM DUNK. ”

Before leaving, Zhi Songye left this sentence, and Shen Xin could only smile.

The two pillars of "Shonen Leap" manga artists parted ways in front of a ramen restaurant.

After the interview, Shen Xin's affairs in Tokyo came to an end, and they began to continue their travels.

Three or four days, in fact, there are not many places to go, if you just look around, the effect is not very good, but you will feel very tired because the schedule is too tight.

After repeated agreements, the group of 10 people only went to Kanagawa and Aichi.

KANAGAWA IS WHERE "SLAM DUNK" TAKES PLACE, AND AICHI NOT ONLY HAS THE STRONG SCHOOL IN "SLAM DUNK", AICHI HIGH SCHOOL, BUT ALSO NAGOYA.

After the group returned to Hongchuan, the circle had already spread photos of Shen Xin at the annual meeting of "Youth Leap".

Before the photo is released, some people may think, isn't it just to attend an annual meeting? It's not a big deal, but when the photo was posted, many cartoonists felt sour.

There is jealousy, there is envy.

But there is no way, this is not a tourist attraction, and you may not be able to go if you have money, in the final analysis, it depends on quality.

Fortunately, various domestic magazines and comic websites have also begun to hold annual meetings, distracting the attention of these cartoonists, but even so, the photo of Shen Xin and other comics still caused a lot of repercussions.

Originally, these people felt that everyone was mixed in a circle, and no one was more noble than anyone else, until these photos came out, especially some cartoonists in District 11 who can be called in China showed a happy look when they took a photo with Shen Xin, making them realize that Shen Xin was out of the circle.

Shen Xin is the only cartoonist who has succeeded in the 11th district in China and jumped out of the magazine contract.

But there are also some people who feel that it is unfair, and other voices are being heard in some forums and even in penguin colonies.

"It's just that I debuted early, and I caught up with a good time. If you make your debut now, unless you smash it hard with money, it will be difficult to become famous. ”

"The rookie cartoonist who has been mixed up in the last year or two, the most famous is Wei Mao, but he has recorded four TV shows a year, and there is also one program, which will be broadcast soon, isn't this made with money?"

……

Shen Xin couldn't cry or laugh when he saw messages like this, and just wanted to sing "It's a pity that time can't be turned back", but he didn't take it to heart - if he was really affected by this kind of message, his mentality would have exploded long ago.

However, these messages reminded Shen Xin that it seemed that Ye Hexu was invited to participate in the recording of the show, and I don't know if he agreed.

made a phone call to Ye Hexu to inquire about it, Ye Hexu almost went crazy, and issued a solemn "warning".

"You are not allowed to watch this show, otherwise, I will not be done with you in the future."

"Got it, be sure to be in front of the TV on time." can let Ye Hexu say this, which shows that this episode of the show is not ordinary.

Shen Xin was full of interest, not only planning to watch this episode of the show, but also setting an alarm clock so as not to forget it.

After returning to Huaxia, the people in the studio rested for an afternoon and officially worked the next day, while Xi Muhan pulled Yan Fei and called Wang Wenhong by the way, sat in the rest area, and chatted for a whole afternoon.

What made Shen Xin even more curious, the three of them were very interested, and when Shen Xin decided to rest and walked out of the studio, the conversation ended.

"You're quite talking......" Shen Xin wiped his damp hair with a towel.

Just took a shower, but he wasn't used to using a hair dryer.

"Guess what's we going to talk about?"

"I'm not a roundworm in your stomach, how do you know?" Shen Xin walked to the refrigerator and just opened the refrigerator, but was closed by Xi Muhan again.

"My brother, it's winter, and you still have drinks? Be careful with the stomach. Xi Muhan put his hands on his waist and puffed out his cheeks, "I'll make you a cup of coffee......

"Do you still want me to sleep?" Shen Xin's head is big.

"That's soy milk, you can't drink drinks anyway." Xi Muhan turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

"Actually, there is heating in the house, so it doesn't matter." Shen Xin said helplessly.

"Don't forget, you had a stomach bug before." Xi Muhan didn't give Shen Xin a chance to refute at all.

Shen Xin shook his head, although Xi Muhan usually listened to him, but when he encountered a more serious one, he couldn't help it.

"By the way, you haven't said yet, what are you three talking about?" Shen Xin leaned back on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Five minutes later, at 23 o'clock, Ye Hexu's program will be screened, and he remembered it.

"Oh, we're talking about a new book."

"What?"

"I mean, the three of us are talking about a new book. Brother, you're not going to forget about it, are you? Xi Muhan came out with the beaten soy milk.

"Of course I remember...... Did you put sugar? Shen Xin took the cup and didn't forget to ask.

"Let it go...... A generous scoop. Xi Muhan sat beside Shen Xin.

Shen Xin took a sip of soy milk, but his mind was thinking about Xi Muhan's words.

If he wants to draw Xi Muhan's cartoons, it is actually very risky. Of course, even if he pounces on one now, it won't hurt, but he still has to be cautious.

There is also a great advantage of using Xi Muhan's name, that is, this must be an original comic, which is exactly what Shen Xin lacks.

Provided, of course, that this original manga is of good enough quality.

"And what do you think?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. The idea of the comic is very important, and the style is also important...... Brother, let me ask you something. If you choose one or the other, which one do you choose? Xi Muhan said seriously.

"Of course it's applauded and applauded." Shen Xin held the coffee in both hands, "I guess, if you draw a book now, you can call a seat, right?" But if the work is not good, it will hurt people's character, because everyone is buying books for the word 'Shen Zheng', and the next time the book is published, readers will wait and see first. So, if you want to create, try to go in the direction of 'applause', right? It's not interesting to call a seat. ”

"Yes." Xi Muhan raised his head, "I forgot, brother, you are now a domestic ...... Also included are the 11th arrondissement, the best cartoonists. As long as the work is not too bad, there is no problem with sales. As long as the comics can be used, the sales will definitely be fine. ”

"Xiaohan, I want to discuss something with you......" Shen Xin thought about it, and decided to talk to Xi Muhan again.

He definitely wants to draw the comic that Xi Muhan served as the original work, and he also lacks such a one, but considering the time problem, he is ready to open it double, just like "DN" and "Y's" at the beginning, but Xi Muhan's comic may have to be updated every month.

At this moment, the TV screen turned, and the program recorded by Ye Hexu began to be screened.

"Huh?" Xi Muhan turned his head to look at Shen Xin.

"Watch TV first. In this issue, Mr. Ye will also appear. He didn't want me to see it...... Hey. Shen Xin thought that Ye Hexu would appear with the others, would there be a kind of contrast and cuteness.

After the opening of the film, the host made a simple opening remark, introduced the topic to the comics, and then said: "In order to record this show, we deliberately invited well-known domestic cartoonists, and invited four teachers to ......"

Shen Xin stared at the screen while drinking soy milk, and the moment he saw Ye Hexu appear, he burst out laughing directly.

Ye Hexu sat in a wheelchair and was pushed onto the stage by Jian Xiaomei.

Shen Xin coughed several times, and Xi Muhan took out two pieces of paper and handed them to him.

"I want to know, is Mr. Ye injured...... That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it? On the show here, Mr. Ye immediately broke his foot. If there is no injury, I can only say that Mr. Ye is...... Talent!! Shen Xin took two breaths and restrained his emotions.

Even if you are in a wheelchair, Ye Hexu also put a blanket on the wheelchair, which ...... Who knows how tall he is?
