Chapter 222: Do You Know "Chess Soul"?

Xi Muhan only stayed in Hongchuan for two weeks before returning to the sea of clouds.

As for the reason - the third year of high school in Huaxia, everyone who understands it.

Before Xi Muhan went back, Shen Xin also deliberately took half a day to go to the cinema with Xi Muhan and watched a movie - Su Han's "Crime".

It's just that this released movie was filmed in District 11, and all the names of the characters have been changed, and it is said that the plot has also changed somewhat.

The protagonist of the story is given a notepad based on prophecy, but is taken away by the senior student who has been bullying him.

Unlike Death Note, once the name of this notebook has been written, it cannot change its owner, and all those who break the notebook will die, except for the protagonist.

The senior student fences the protagonist in the bathroom, beats the protagonist hard, and tears off one of the pages when he takes away the notepad, only to leave the school building when a piece of glass falls off and kills the senior student.

The story is basically like this, this is only the first part of "Crime and Punishment", there are two more left, and the only people who know the end are Han Ye except for Su Han.

The manga of "Crime" has reached the end of the second episode, and at this rate, it should be next year, "Crime" will be over.

Come to think of it, time flies so fast.

Shen Xin sighed in his heart.

The final box office of "Crime and Punishment" was 320 million, and the cost was not high, so this movie can be said to have made a lot of money, and it also achieved good results in District 11, which made many best-selling authors blush.

The "Short Comic Contest" can be said to be a big failure, almost all of the published works have been hit with "X" by Ye Hexu, and only a few short stories can be published in "Young Future", but none of them are qualified for serialization.

Although "ComicFuture" did not find a newcomer, it was unexpected, and "Killer Diary", which was not optimistic, actually won the "Best Long-Form Comic Award" at the "Comics Festival", and the comic that had been running for three years finally blossomed "fruit", and at the same time, "Crime and Punishment" also won the "Best Adaptation Award".

"ComicFuture" won two awards alone and became the big winner of the comic festival, Shang Haozhi also breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, at the weekly meeting, he also proposed that from January, a six-month rookie competition will be held to strive to find high-quality rookie cartoonists.

During this period of time, "Chess Soul" also gradually gained popularity, and in addition to the original readers, it also successfully attracted a large number of Go enthusiasts who never read comics. The second volume sold more than 40 volumes in a single week without large-scale advertising, which made Shang Haozhi overjoyed.

For a time, the popularity of "Chess Soul" on the Internet surpassed that of many comics, and even ranked among the top five in competitive comics. It's just that, due to the slow pace, it can't be compared to the two or three most popular comics for the time being, and these two or three comics include Haruka Tamagawa's "Slam Dunk".

"Slam Dunk" is temporarily more popular than "Chess Soul" for many reasons.

First, the confrontation in basketball is fierce, and the degree of viewing is higher than that of Go.

Secondly, the reader's sense of substitution is strong. Even if most people haven't been to the arena to watch a professional basketball game, they have more or less watched a class or school-level basketball game, and it is easier to substitute themselves as the protagonist.

Again, Slam Dunk is fast-paced. The first word slapped the star in the team, the second word determined the core position of the team, and the third word started a training match with a famous school in the same county.

In addition, there are some small routines, such as being underestimated by other schools, and then slapping opponents in the face.

Although, the number of times it has been used is not much, but it has already made readers addicted.

It is said that the first volume of "Slam Dunk" sold 330,000 copies in the 11th district, while in China it sold 450,000 copies.

This is equivalent to the sales of the first volume of "Slam Dunk" worldwide, reaching 780,000 copies, far exceeding other competitive comics.

The other cartoonists were also speechless when they saw this.

The vast majority of them only have one market, but Slam Dunk has two, and their comics are not up to the level of "The Legend of the Dragon King", so even if they are envious, there is no way.

As the editor-in-charge of "Slam Dunk" in "MangaFly", Yan Fei is not only responsible for "MangaFly's" own comics, but also has to learn Japanese, and then is responsible for "Slam Dunk" in "MangaFly" related affairs.

When she got home, Yan Fei had just taken out her textbook and was about to continue learning Japanese, when the mobile phone on the desktop suddenly lit up, and a message was sent to her mobile phone.

Yan Fei glanced at the message, it turned out to be sent by Yuchuan Yao, and clicked on the message in confusion.

"Teacher Yan, what should I do next?"

Yan Fei was full of question marks, she didn't know how Yuchuan Haruka could send such a text message.

"What's wrong?"

"I can't draw the name of the next episode."

"Huh? What do you mean? Yan Fei was a little stunned when she saw this.

Her main task in "MangaFly" is actually communication, and after helping Haruka Tamagawa in the first two words, she didn't give any more opinions, just feedback the reader's information.

In addition, Haruka Tamagawa's editor-in-charge in "Young Leap" doesn't want her to interfere more, after all, he is the real editor in charge of Haruka Tamagawa, as for Yan Fei, to put it mildly, it's almost no different from a liaison.

According to Yan Fei's prompts, Haruka Tamagawa changed the name of the first two episodes, so that "Slam Dunk" had a good beginning, and the editors of District 11 also had an understanding, removing a lot of unnecessary plots, making the plot of the story very compact, but at the same time, there was also a result - the speed of "Slam Dunk" was difficult to slow down again.

"Now I feel that the speed is too fast, no matter what team the protagonist's opponent is, it basically ends in three or four words. If it continues at this rate, "Slam Dunk" will be over next year. ”

A message went back to Yan Fei's phone.

"So fast?"

Yan Fei has just watched the latest episode of "Slam Dunk", and now she is only in the group stage of the county competition.

"That's right. If the protagonist wins the national championship effortlessly, I can't redraw the national competition, right? They are all old opponents, and if they are crushed again, there is not much new ideas. ”

Yan Fei nodded, what Yuchuan Haruka said was right.

"Then bring in new opponents...... For example, the Asian or World Championships, plus pre-competition training. That will take another year or two. ”

This is the most basic method to continuously improve the strength of the opponent.

Mr. Taniguchi thinks so too, but the protagonist was portrayed too well before. It's hard for me to imagine how good an athlete from a basketball powerhouse can be. ”

This is another difficult problem, and sometimes the imagination of cartoonists limits their thinking...... Wait, shouldn't this be something that the District 11 Coordinator should be solving?

Yan Fei was depressed in her heart, and it wasn't until Yuchuan sent two messages to ask her that she replied, "There are only two ways I can think of." ”

"What's the solution?"

"The first way is to detach from reality. There are many competitive comics in Zone 11 that have rushed out of Asia and into the world. In this way, even if the protagonist wins the world championship, the reader will be able to accept it. ”

"But Chinese readers won't recognize it, right?"

However, the basketball in District 11 is indeed not as good as that of Huaxia.

Yan Fei thought so in her heart, but her fingers issued a second method, "Then slow down." ”

"How?" Haruka Tamagawa asked rhetorically.

Yan Fei thought about it and typed another line of words: "Do you know "Chess Soul"? ”
