Chapter 1031: Privileges
The release of Chapter 133 of "SLAM DUNK" made waves on the Internet again, and for no other reason, Hanamichi changed her hairstyle.
From a more pompous, airplane head-like hairstyle, suddenly changed to a board size, this change of ikebana really surprised and stunned many readers.
The changes in the protagonist's clothing and hair have also been reflected in many comics, but if the changes are too great, the reader has to get used to it for a while, and when the latter hairstyle is not as good as the previous hairstyle, or the reader does not like it, they often express some opinions.
In particular, some readers have face blindness, and manga artists have a one-size-fits-all style, and when this happens, it tends to be catastrophic.
THANKFULLY, THAT'S NOT THE CASE WITH SLAM DUNK.
Actually, in the previous episode, there is a character who changes his hairstyle, Shan Jing Shou. It's just that at that time, Shan Jing Shou only appeared in more than ten words, and it was okay to change his image, and after the change, Shan Jing Shou was more sunny, much better than the previous gloomy appearance, and it was also recognized by readers.
However, Hanamichi is not Shan Jing Shou, he is the only protagonist of the whole work, so the reader's reaction to his change of image is far more than that of Shan Jing Shou.
Yu Chenchu was shocked when he saw the discussion of the ikebana hairstyle on the Internet, thinking that this change would really affect the results of "SLAM DUNK", and when he got the little book, his mood calmed down.
There is an impact, but the impact is not great, or rather, this kind of bullying is the normal fluctuation of a work.
This shows that the results of this comic are more stable than expected.
Wu Xiaoli carried the envelope containing Name, hurriedly pushed open the door of the editorial office, came to her workbench, and put Name on her desk.
"Who submitted the manuscript?" Hook narrowed his eyes, glanced at the envelope in Wu Xiaoli's hand, and said curiously.
"yes."
Hearing Hook mention the manuscript, Wu Xiaoli picked up the envelope with a smug face, "It's the new work of Teacher Lu and Teacher Xi." ”
"Huh? Already out? Hook immediately stood up, came to Wu Xiaoli's table, and took the envelope from her hand.
"Actually, Xiaohan's outline has been completed a long time ago, and they have been waiting for the end of "The Gate of Destiny Stone", so that the two of them can focus on the new work." Wu Xiaoli chuckled, turned around and said to Yu Chen, "Mr. Yu, Mr. Shen has applied to "Young Leap" to produce "SD" animation. ”
"Huh? So fast? It's just over 130 words. Zeng Hui raised his head with a look of surprise.
If it's half a year, the manga has a draft of more than 100 words, and you can start making animations, but "SLAM DUNK" is obviously not. It is best to start with 150 chapters of long-form animation, which should be about the same, and by the time it is released, it should be around 200 chapters.
"It's a bit fast, indeed." Yu Chen took a breath.
He has dealt with Shen Xin a lot, and he also knows Shen Xin's personality.
With the current results of "SLAM DUNK", it is impossible for Shen Xin to allow the animation company to add original plots, and if you think about it this way, the current plot of "SLAM DUNK" should be in the middle.
Of course, even the manga artist himself is not sure when it will end, and new ideas pop up in the creator's head and may change the outline at any time.
So, maybe the plot is the middle point of "SLAM DUNK" at the moment, but after a while, it may not be.
Thinking of this, Yu Chen bowed slightly, "That's fine, the animation comes out earlier, and the sales of comics can also be increased earlier." ”
When the other editors heard this, they had a black line.
The average volume of "SLAM DUNK" has reached 1.3 million copies, and the total sales have exceeded 15 million copies, approaching 20 million copies.
Do you want to increase sales? HOW HORRIBLE IS SLAM DUNK'S SCORE?
It's really hard for editors to imagine.
HOWEVER, BASED ON THE CURRENT MOMENTUM OF SLAM DUNK, IT IS TRUE THAT THE FUTURE RESULTS MAY BE EVEN MORE EXAGGERATED.
However, Mr. Shen's outline has always been more accurate. Let's think of this as the middle of SLAM DUNK, right? Hook reminded.
"Comic Future" has not cooperated with Shen Xin for a year or two, "Chess Soul", "Steel Refining", "DN" and "SLAM DUNK" have all been serialized in "Comic Future", and everyone knows Shen Xin's habits.
Since Shen Xin is relieved, it means that the animation of "SLAM DUNK" can't catch up with the progress of the comics no matter what.
"That can't help it." YU CHEN SHRUGGED HIS SHOULDERS, "WHICH OF YOU CAN CONVINCE MR. SHEN TO MAKE "SLAM DUNK" A LITTLE LONGER." ”
The editors shook their heads in unison.
Just kidding, what Shen Xin decides, even Bao Jiyi can't influence. They are not Bao Jiyi, how can they do it?
"That's it, so let's wait, right? Besides, after the completion of "SLAM DUNK", doesn't Mr. Shen have a next copy? Even if the next book is not as good as "SLAM DUNK", it should be a pillar manga, right? ”
Yu Chen's words sounded like a question, but he was more convincing himself.
After hearing about it, the others thought about it carefully, and it seemed that there was some truth.
From "Chess Spirit" to "Steel Forged", to "DN", and now serialized "SLAM DUNK", all the manga, even if the sales are not at the same level, have always had a good reputation, and even "Y's", which is not serialized in "Comic Future", also has a good reputation.
Therefore, as long as Shen Xin's new book is still serialized in "Comic Future", everything is easy to say.
Now, "Comic Future" is basically in a state of "free-range" for Shen Xin, as long as the new book is in "Comic Future", everything else is easy to say.
Such a privilege is unique in the country.
What the? Other cartoonists want it too?
Of course, you can, as long as you take the road that Shen Xin has walked and go through it again.
"By the way, the full-color version of "DN" has ended, Xiaoli, you go and discuss the full-color version with Mr. Shen. I mean, the magazine is definitely going to have a full-color version of the book. But considering that we are still mainly black and white comics, the cost of full-color version is high, therefore, the printing volume of full-color will be controlled at a relatively low level, and now, it should be in the range of 50,000 to 100,000 copies. ”
"Oh...... Will the first edition be too low? Wu Xiaoli said melancholy.
"The market is sluggish, and given the cost, the price will not be low. So, this sales volume is also for the sake of conservatism. Most of this edition is for readers to collect, not to make money from it. Yu Chen said simply.
That's right, too.
The complete version costs fifty or sixty yuan a copy, and the price of the full-color version will not be lower than this price.
Wu Xiaoli bowed her head and kept this matter in her heart.
Hu Ke flipped through Lu Ning and Xi Muhan's new work, and looked at it twice, but his ears listened to the conversation between Yu Chen and Wu Xiaoli, and I have to say that Yu Chen is more experienced in dealing with Shen Xin's affairs than before.
After realizing that nothing would happen, Hook's attention returned to the name in his hand again, but he realized that he had forgotten the previous content due to the distraction just now, so he had to smile bitterly and start all over again.
