"And, Hohenheim, between him and his wife, the Ellik brothers...... It should have been very warm at first. ”

But in the end, Hohenheim was separated from his wife. I can't think of why. ”

"Because he also wants to grow old and die with his wife."

"But no one thinks it's too long, does it?"

"It should be strange to see my son grow up day by day, and not grow old myself, and his wife will leave him. He probably can't stand the loneliness. ”

"It's possible."

……

Seeing the reader's discussion on the Internet, Shen Xin sighed and stretched his waist.

To be honest, he rarely reads readers' comments, which is a habit when writing, especially after coming to this world, because he knows the quality and achievements of many comics, he rarely goes to readers to discuss them.

The comic "Steel", to a certain extent, is the origin of everything, Hohenheim. And the Erlik brothers were forced to carry out human body refining also have a lot to do with Hoinheim.

If he hadn't left the house, his wife might not have died, and maybe everything would have been different.

However, it is precisely because of one accident that there is inevitability, and the large net formed between each other makes the whole story extraordinarily stable.

It's really a work with zero negative reviews, no matter the background setting, or the design of the characters, the logic of the story, etc., there are almost no dead ends.

Seeing this, Shen Xin had to sigh, Aunt Niu is amazing!

After "Steel Forge", Aunt Niu's "Silver Key" is also excellent, but for various reasons, the comic series is slow.

Shen Xin looked back downstairs and saw Xi Muhan looking up recipes, collecting information, and drawing names over and over again.

The original work is the core of the manga, and as long as there is a good original work, there will be many candidates for the painting. But the pressure on the original is also the greatest, and they face the rise and fall of the small book directly. Whether the plot design is clever or not will determine the results of the comics.

As the original of "Ding Food", the pressure on Xi Muhan's shoulders is difficult for ordinary people to imagine.

In particular, not long ago, Sister Yan brought a news that it is said that before July, "Hunting the Abyss" will end.

The magazine's expectation for "Ding Shi" is to top the position of "Hunting Abyss".

Replace a hot-blooded comic with a food comic?

To be honest, it's really hard to do. Even "Spirit of the Halberd", before it collapsed, was called the pillar of "Jump", but compared with the real top-tier manga, such as "Pirates" and "Hokage", there is still a certain gap.

However, Xi Muhan cherished this opportunity, and even during the Spring Festival, he did not go out, but "buried" himself in the pile of materials.

Shen Xin walked down the stairs and placed a can of coffee on the desk.

The can of coffee that appeared out of thin air startled Xi Muhan.

She hurriedly raised her head, and when she saw that it was Shen Xin, her face softened a lot, "Brother Xin......"

"Hmm...... Don't be disgusted, that's all I can do. Shen Xin turned his head, "If you don't think it's okay, I'll make you coffee again." ”

"Poof......

Seeing Shen Xin's aggrieved look, Xi Muhan couldn't help laughing.

"Got it, don't show such a look, it looks so aggrieved."

Xi Muhan opened the coffee and took a sip, the cold liquid flowed through his throat, and the whole person immediately felt a lot of energy.

"Don't be too tired, to tell you the truth, although the magazine has great expectations for "Ding Shi", "Ding Shi" is not the answer that the magazine wants the most...... Even "The King of Rock and Roll" is not the most anticipated work of the magazine. And, this is just your first manga, just try to do it well. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. ”

"Is that so?" Xi Muhan muttered.

"For a magazine, the comic that wants to be popular the most is definitely the royal comic. After this kind of comic takes off, it will attract readers of all levels, and "Ding Shi" and "King of Rock and Roll" screened readers at the beginning of the series. ”

"But isn't "Chess Soul" also a niche?" Xi Muhan retorted.

"Well, but that kind of comic has to have a soul...... Even in the past ten or twenty years, when people mention this comic, there is still a plot flashing in their minds. Shen Xin explained.

"That's why Zuo Wei disappeared......" Xi Muhan said.

"yes. Originally, "Y's" also had a chance. But it was interrupted. ”

"It's so difficult...... Xi Muhan rubbed her forehead and took another sip of coffee, the taste was the same as her heart at the moment - bitter.

"Ding Shi is already very good, ranking 5th in the small book of "Comic Future", and the sales of the single book are also good, step by step."

"Brother Xin, do you think "Ding Shi" has a chance to reverse?" Xi Muhan was unwilling.

"Let me ask you, what are the characteristics of "Ding Shi" compared with other comics of the same genre?" Shen Xin asked rhetorically.

"Features?"

"Well, that's different from the highlights. The highlight is to attract readers, such as the dazzling golden finger, excellent brain holes, 'explosive clothes' storyboards, etc., and the feature is to retain readers. I said more bluntly, that is, the difference of the works, in a bunch of works with gold fingers, there are characteristics, not the same comics, can stand out from the two.

"It's a well-designed plot and the image is full. Full of characters, delicate pictures, or meticulous logic. What kind of 'branding' do you put on your work, so that readers remember you as a person and your work, instead of being a passer-by and putting the comics away when the readers are done. ”

Why is it that some authors still have readers waiting for him to serialize a new work after finishing a comic, while others are obscure after drawing a work?

It is because the reader has found a replacement for the latter.

So, how an author treats a work, how readers treat the author.

To paraphrase the plot of "Steel", this is "equivalent exchange".

"What if it's in 'Ding Shi'?" Xi Muhan muttered to himself.

The person who knows the work best is always the author himself. Shen Xin can only say some suggestions to Xi Muhan at most, and will not tell her what she should do, saying too much will make her doubt herself.

Shen Xin rubbed his neck and moved his gaze to the window.

"It's snowing."

"Huh?"

Xi Muhan raised his head and looked out the window.

The snowflakes slowly fell from the sky, and after coming into contact with the ground, they melted quickly, and before long, it was already wet outside.

"It's been a long time since I've seen snowflakes." Xi Muhan stretched his waist and stood up, walked to the window, looked at the snowflakes flying in the air, and felt much smoother, "By the way, Brother Xin, Sister Yan said that Mr. Zuo's name has passed the serialization meeting and will be officially serialized in March." ”

"Really? That's a good thing. Actually, I like his work a lot, and it's very comfortable for readers. Shen Xin said with a smile.

It's like ...... I've read too many fast-paced comics, and I hope to read one or two comics and slow down the pace, right?

Shen Xin thought silently in his heart.
