Chapter 135: Too Much Muscle Is Fat (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
Zhao Zhenying was taken into Jin Ke's house in a daze. As a result, as soon as he entered, he was directly confused.
It's not like what I imagined!
Why are all the walls from the living room to the bedroom covered with two-dimensional posters?
That one is platelets, that one is Wang Yuyan, and that one is the ship's mother...... And that is the heroine of a manga he drew before!
Look at the cabinet again, it's either comics or figurines, it's a large-scale exhibition site.
At this moment, the image of Jin Ke's fierce man suddenly collapsed in his heart, this Nima turned out to be a dead fat house!
As soon as he thought of this, Zhao Zhenying immediately stopped panicking.
"Wow, isn't this the limited-edition figure? I've got it all! ”
"yes, I just got it the night before I went to the queue!"
Chatting and chatting, the two actually chatted unexpectedly.
When he learned that Zhao Zhenying was actually a cartoonist with the pen name "Ying Zheng", Jin Xiao was also surprised.
"It's you! Really? I'll go, I've always liked your comics! What happened when the last one suddenly ended? ”
"Hehe, accident, pure accident, I didn't expect that Da Health Care would be arrested."
"Awesome......"
This lasted until the evening, and Jin Qi inadvertently mentioned: "By the way, "Dragon Babu" seems to be coming to an end, do you know what new comics the dance teacher plans to produce? ”
"I don't know, I'm not familiar with them," Zhao Zhenying shook his head, "and it's uncertain whether their new work will be serialized on SQUTA." ”
"What's going on?" Jin Ke immediately became interested.
Zhao Zhenying said: "They signed a work contract, and the binding effect is only limited to "Dragon Babu", and they have to renegotiate the new comic contract when they come out." ”
"Then let's talk about it again, doesn't the publishing house want such a great god?"
"If you want it, but those people don't use love to generate electricity, they are all a group of businessmen, and their eyes are fixed on money," Zhao Zhenying is also an old writer, and he knows a lot about it, "When "Dragon Babu" was first serialized, they were still newcomers, so the publishing house took a big advantage in the distribution of interests, and now they want to finish their old works and replace them with new comics, and the problem comes. ”
There are now two opinions at the top of the SQUAT publishing house. One is to sign the dance love no matter what, their current popularity can be completely god-making, and in this downhill environment, "Weekly SQUAT" can forcibly rise against the trend, which is enough to prove the great commercial value of the dance love.
The other is more rational, the main purpose of their publishing house is not to pursue their dreams or anything, but to make money. Everything is based on money. First of all, it is very difficult to replicate a phenomenal work like "Dragon Babu", even if it is Wu Qing himself, it is impossible to say that there is a 100% guarantee that the next work will be as popular as "Dragon Babu". This point is unanimously recognized in the industry.
If the publisher signs them at a high price, and then puts a lot of effort into running them, and as a result, the new work fails to achieve a certain level, and the business loses. So there is a very troublesome thing in this, that is, how to distribute the benefits with the dance to ensure that the publishing house can make a lot of money?
This is not something that can be explained clearly by simply 19, 28, and 37, and it is necessary to consider both risks and input-output ratios, as well as other aspects of the collateral impact.
If "Dragon Babu" is still serialized, there won't be so much trouble, mainly because of the uncertainty of the new dance work.
Take a look at their other work "Working Cells", the red is a little red, but it is only a niche range of red, and it can't be compared with "Dragon Babu". As for the "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure" cooperated by Ximen Qing and Wangshu, it is similar, the quality is indeed high, and many people like it, but after all, it is still limited to a circle and has not reached the level of phenomenal.
"These businessmen are very realistic," said Zhao Zhenying, "for the sake of profit, sometimes they will turn into crazy gamblers, but sometimes, they are so cautious that they would rather choose 100% to earn 10 yuan than 50% to earn 1 yuan and 50% to earn 100 yuan." ”
Jin Kun was dazed when he heard this, and he didn't understand what Zhao Zhenying said: "So what? Will the dance teacher continue to post new works? ”
"Uh......" Zhao Zhenying found that he had been playing the piano to the cow for a long time, and couldn't help but cover his forehead, "Let me tell you this, that is, they are still talking to the publishing house, and if they can talk, they will continue to be serialized in SQUAT, and if they can't talk about it, there will definitely be other publishing houses to dig into the wall, in the end, new comics will definitely come out, but it is not necessary to continue to serialize in SQUAT." ”
"Oh, I understand when you say that," Jin Qi nodded, "It's a big deal to buy another magazine in the future, what's the big deal." ”
In a usual sentence, Zhao Zhenying has already heard some hidden things inside.
[Is the fan stickiness of dance already high to this extent?] 】
People are often inert, and once you buy a magazine for a long time, it is very difficult to change it suddenly. Therefore, the publishing house has changed one work after another, but it can still be popular, while the cartoonist has a higher probability of being out of fashion if he changes a platform.
What can make readers follow the cartoonist is definitely something that only a cartoonist with a "godhead" can do.
[Those cunning guys shouldn't be so stupid, right? Zhao Zhenying couldn't help but sigh to herself, where did he, a small cartoonist, come from so much to worry about other capitalists?
In fact, SQUAT Publishing House is actively preparing to sign a contract with Dance Romance.
"Sign it, the sincerity must be enough," the editor-in-chief Li Jingzheng was on the phone with the people below, "There is no reason to drive the chickens that lay golden eggs out." ”
Because of the popularity of "Dragon Babu", he has now been promoted, and he is still a triple jump.
SQUAT Publishing House is a subsidiary of "Haifeng Group", compared with commercial aircraft carriers whose industries span industry, medical care, film and television, people's livelihood and other fields, the publishing house is just a carrier-based aircraft in the final analysis. Being able to enter the head office is definitely more promising than being the editor-in-chief of a subsidiary.
Maybe it's because I've read too many comics, what Li Jing is most worried about after his promotion is whether the headquarters will send a brainless young master to gild, and then run away with the two gods of wealth who are dancing. In the end, SQUAT Publishing House became the material for people to pretend to be slapped in the face.
[Such a stupid thing must be avoided. Even though the affairs of the publishing house have little to do with Li Jing, he has been paying attention to the follow-up development after his departure.
Fortunately, the head office is not stupid and does not do anything wrong. This time, he was transferred to take his place, but it was a very good person.
