Chapter 32: Can't Be Serialized?
Song Yunwu took out the sketch he had prepared for a long time and said, "I want to open another serial, and I want to bring it to the editor to see." ”
"Double-open?" A hint of surprise flashed across Qian Lai's face. The cartoonists he used to contact were more salted than the other, and dragging drafts was even more commonplace, and this was the first time he had seen that one was not enough and he wanted to serialize another at the same time.
However, if it is double-opened, it will inevitably have an impact on the quality of the work, and in serious cases, it will even lead to the suspension of the work. Qian Lai did not express his opinion immediately, but picked up Song Yunwu's sketch and looked at it. If it is not suitable, he intends to refuse.
15 minutes later, Qian Lai, who had already read the sketch for the second time, put down the manuscript and said to Song Yunwu: "It is indeed an excellent comic, Mr. Wuqing, you are really talented, but I don't think this work can be serialized on "Mars SQUAT". ”
"Huh?" Song Yunwu, who was still praised in front of him, suddenly heard that he couldn't be serialized, and was dumbfounded on the spot, "Why, why?" Am I not good at drawing? ”
"No, your work is excellent," Qian said, "The storyline is difficult to conclude for the time being, but whether it is the character design or the design of the battle scenes, it is definitely one of the best works I have ever seen." ”
The character design was discussed by Ximen Qing and Song Yunwu together, with her talent and Ximen Qing's memory of another world, the designed characters are naturally very eye-catching. And the battle scenes are not to mention, Song Yunwu was born in a family of Taoist priests, martial arts is the foundation of the foundation, and the battle scenes she drew are the most realistic and reasonable.
"Then why can't it be serialized?" Song Yunwu asked.
Qian Lai told the reason: "Because the style does not match "Mars SQUAT", most of the works on "Mars" are mainly with the same fan, even if there is originality, it is also your "Working Cell" The kind of daily and easy to sell cute works, and your current "Dragon Babu" is undoubtedly a fairly orthodox story, compared to "Mars SQUAT", "Weekly SQUAT" is obviously more suitable. ”
After hearing this, Song Yunwu said helplessly: "But where is "Weekly SQUAT" so good. She has also submitted articles to "Weekly SQUAT" more than a dozen times before, and each time she was rejected, she is about to have a psychological shadow.
Seeing this, Qian Lai smiled and said: "It's a coincidence, recently there happened to be a great god on the main magazine's side who went out to collect materials and closed the publication, and that guy won't resume publishing for a year and a half after the publication is suspended, I can find a way to help you fight for this opportunity." ”
"Really!" Song Yunwu was overjoyed, "I, I can serialize it in "Weekly SQUAT"? I'm not dreaming, am I? ”
"It's just a chance," he emphasized, "but you're not the only teacher who has targeted this opportunity, and you're going to have to compete for who will die in the end." ”
"It's good to have a chance," Song Yunwu was not disappointed at all, "so how exactly do you want to compete?" ”
Qian Lai hesitated, but still told what he knew in advance: "Don't tell anyone else, this is also what I heard from a friend, half a month later, the main magazine should add pages, and serialize several new works at the same time, and then determine which work will be left according to the response." ”
Generally, magazines add pages to a few pages of interviews and the like, and it is really rare to add one or two comics directly, that is, dozens of pages. This time, it was also done because of the special situation, and it lasted for a month at most, which is equivalent to 4 issues of the weekly magazine.
After understanding the specific situation, Song Yunwu understood that he had to show the charm of "Dragon Babu" in the 4th period, otherwise it would only be a flash in the pan.
"4 words, that's enough." On the way back, Song Yunwu pondered for a while, and it is estimated that the 4th chapter can just be drawn to Mu Wanqing, there are two beauties, Zhong Ling and Mu Wanqing, plus Duan Yu's "Northern Shengong" has also begun to show miraculous effects, which should be enough.
……
Editorial Board of SQUAT Press. The editors in charge of the main issue are in a regular meeting.
"So...... Next,About the 'non-part-time' teacher to suspend the publication again.,Last time I said to let a few newcomers compete to see.,So do you have any good work recommendations? Editor-in-chief Li Jing said.
The editors below, you look at me, I look at you, most of them don't intend to speak. They basically have fixed authors on hand, and it's almost enough to be responsible for one or two, where is the mind to dig out a new author. And where is it so easy to find comics that are serialized in "Weekly SQUAT"? If the editor-in-chief is not satisfied, he should be left with a bad impression.
This kind of thankless thing, unless you really find a good work, you won't take the initiative. The scene was silent for about 10 seconds, and two editors spoke at the same time.
"I'm ...... here" "Head, I found a ......"
Halfway through the conversation, the two of them glanced at each other in unison, and they both looked a little surprised.
One of them motioned to the other to say first, and the latter was not polite: "It's too difficult to find talented newcomers, I have an old author here who has just released a new work recently, you might as well take a look." ”
Li Jing nodded and motioned for the editor to pass on a copy of the comic to everyone. Everyone started watching.
The old author's pen name is "Ying Zheng", and the new work is about a gangster who escaped because he carried the boss in a gang war, and as a result, his shoulder was on someone's stomach and the internal injury was aggravated, and the boss was misheard as "he topped my stomach" before he died, and he became a gangster boss in a daze, and then began a series of wonderful stories.
"Teacher Yingzheng? I think he used to serialize the funny comics in "Mars". After reading it, Li Jing said to Yang Yuan, the editor who brought the comics.
The latter said with a smile: "Teacher Yingzheng was detained a few days ago because of great health care, and after coming out, he lived for a month because of cecal cutting, and the original serial position has been topped, and I used to have some friendship with him when I was on the other side of Mars, and he found me." ”
"What does it mean to have some friendship when you are on Mars, but it is actually a friendship established during the time of great health care." Another editor quipped.
"Go, go," Yang Yuan immediately defended, "Gou Yue, how can you be so innocent!" How can a foot massage be considered a great health care? But you, where did you find the work? Don't be compared to Yingzheng. ”
The joke about him was another editor who proposed a new work, and his name was Gou Yue.
Gou Yue laughed and said nothing, got up and distributed the works in his hand to everyone, and then sat back in his position and said with a smile: "Coincidentally, the author of this comic on my side has an indissoluble bond with Teacher Yingzheng." ”
