There are many editorial groups in the editorial department of Tencent Comics, among which Ming Lan is the rookie editor of the first editorial group.

Her editor-in-chief is called Liu Yuanbiao.

That's right, it's the name that isn't two-dimensional at all!

When I heard the name, I thought it was a bandit who carried a baseball bat and robbed a child's lollipop.

At least on the first day she came to the editorial department, Minglan thought so.

"Editor-in-chief ......" Minglan walked into the editor-in-chief's office with the sketch.

"What's wrong?"

The editor-in-chief was also a little stunned when he saw her coming in with the sketch, "What good works did you find?" Need to show me something special? ”

The editor-in-charge of Tencent Comics,There is a lot of freedom in signing contracts and arranging recommendations,Generally speaking, the editor-in-charge finds an excellent potential comic and can directly sign it himself,When arranging the recommendation channel recommendation, you don't need to ask your own editor-in-chief,Unless you want to arrange a homepage recommendation This kind of blockbuster recommendation,And when APP recommends,It needs to be reported separately for review。

In the past, when Minglan came to him, he usually met a cartoonist who was not sure whether he had the potential to sign a contract, so he came to him to ask for advice, but this time he came directly with the printed sketch, which is very rare.

"Look at this comic."

Minglan handed over the thick sketch.

"Oh? What kind of subject? The editor-in-chief asked, and took the drawing.

"Magical Girl."

"Poof!"

The editor-in-chief almost didn't squirt a mouthful of water on Minglan's face.

What the hell, there are still people who post magical girls on this kind of comic book site for teenagers?

Isn't that all for the little ones?

Liu Yuanbiao squinted his eyes, looked Minglan up and down, left and right, and then glanced at her chest very gentlemanly......

Well.

In a way, Minglan is really a child.

Alas.

Liu Yuanbiao sighed regretfully in his heart.

"There's no market for the theme of magical girls, at least on our website, there's no market." The editor-in-chief said.

"No, editor-in-chief, you can take a look first."

"Well, since you've said so, okay."

The editor-in-chief lowered his head and turned the first page, and suddenly, he was speechless.

"it! Which god is this showing off his painting skills? Oh, my God! ”

Liu Yuanbiao was shocked!

Yes.

Just by reading the first page, his mood was completely different.

If he was bored just now because of the low-intelligence theme of "Magical Girl", which is only suitable for children, then his current expression, how to say it, is similar to taking Viagra.

Even if he suddenly took off his pants, it seemed understandable from the atmosphere.

Yanyun Songzi is not a small round face, but a cute painting style that has led the industry for ten years, this style of painting, coupled with her superb painting skills, is definitely eye-catching for people in the embryonic era of ACG, and it is amazing.

"Yes! Yes! Just this painting skill is enough to be featured in the 'Dimensional Weekly'! The editor-in-chief slapped his thigh.

"Can you go to the last Yuan Weekly?" Minglan was really stunned this time.

Dimension Weekly is a comic magazine founded by Tencent, specializing in publishing original comics that perform well on Tencent Comics, this comic weekly is founded to encourage original comics, and only original comics on Tencent Comics can have the opportunity to publish serialization.

As for those comics, such as "Panlong", which has just recently occupied the top spot on the best-selling list, cannot be serialized in Dimensional Weekly.

However, the competition for serialization spots in Dimension Weekly is very fierce, and there may not even be a new spot in a week.

Anyway, a little budding like Minglan, who has been on the job for a month, never expected his cartoonists to be able to appear on that kind of super stage.

It's not that she doesn't have dreams, it's that people are self-aware.

But this twilight is lonely......

No, it's time to call the madman.

How can this crazy young man with a small chirp actually make his first work on the last Yuan Weekly?

It's not that Arashi denies the potential shown by this "Madoka Magical Girl", but this thing is like a dream to her, and several old editors in the first editorial team have never been on the cartoonists, so it's on her side, a bit like a dream.

I suddenly felt that I was about to become the CEO and marry Peregrine to the peak of my life.

About five minutes or so.

The editor-in-chief finished reading "Madoka Magical Girl".

It is customary to give a score to the audited work.

Creativity: 4 stars

Plot: Tentative, but according to the foreshadowing of the opening, a conservative estimate of 4 stars

Painting skills: A total of 5 stars to make an exception to 6 stars are not afraid of your pride!

Potential: 5 stars

This is an unprecedented high score among all the works he has reviewed!

After reading this thick first sentence, the editor-in-chief has completely changed his view of the theme of magical girls.

The confusing opening foreshadowing, the cute character design style, the foggy "Xiao Meiyan" and QB, and the artistic and visually impactful monster "Witch".

It's simply subverted his perception of the theme of magical girls!

Shouldn't the themes of magical girls be very plain?

Suddenly appear as a monster, transform into a magical girl to fight off monsters, save innocent passers-by, incarnate as a messenger of justice, and preach love and peace......

This is the magical girl in Liu Yuanbiao's memory.

But in this "Madoka Magical Girl", it is mixed with all kinds of foggy suspense, leaving a lot of foreshadowing, and the design of the witch is even more refreshing, and the cool battle simply hangs all the current cartoonists, and the first time I saw it, it was full of impact!

"Who is this cartoonist?" The editor-in-chief asked.

"Uh...... Crazy Less. ”

"Huh? What are you talking about? ”

"That...... He is a rookie cartoonist, and his original pen name is very ...... weird, and then he changed to a new pen name, called 'Crazy Young', probably trying to rub off on the popularity. ”

Minglan told the truth.

"That's right." The editor-in-chief thought for a while, "I'll try to see if I can report it when I have a meeting in the afternoon, and if I can go to the Dimensional Weekly, it will be basically stable." ”

Afternoon.

Conference room.

A long conference table was full of people, all of whom were editors-in-chief and editor-in-charge of major editorial groups, most of whom were relatively young.

Minglan was also sitting in it.

She was very nervous at the first meeting, and sat upright like a primary school student.

Now I'm used to it, and I even have the courage to sneak a look at my phone when people are unprepared.

It's like freshmen who have just graduated from high school and are going to college.

The first year was quite restrained, and I wasn't familiar with school, so at most I played with my mobile phone in class.

In the second and third years, it will instantly turn into an old oilman, and the oil is so bad that even the forsythia class is commonplace, and everyone is an old driver.

Back to business.

The editor-in-chief of Tencent Comics sat at the front of the conference table, swept his eyes, and said, "Everyone has almost prepared the books recommended for the next round of arrangement, have you found any particularly excellent original works?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Yuanbiao, editor-in-chief of the first editorial group, was ready to speak.

However.

Before he could speak, the female editor-in-chief of the second editorial group, "Yang Ling", spoke: "I found a particularly good newcomer comic work here, and I feel that it can be serialized simultaneously in the dimensional weekly." ”

"Oh?" The editor-in-chief didn't seem surprised, "Newcomer works? So outstanding? ”

And then.

Editor-in-chief Yang sent the original comic manuscript that he had prepared a long time ago.

Because it was only 20 pages of content, the editor-in-chief only took two minutes to read it roughly, nodded and said, "Yes, this "Ten Swordsmen" has high potential and can be serialized in the Dimensional Weekly, we have a place this week, and we will give this "Ten Swordsmen". ”

Minglan below was a little stunned.

What the heck?

Why is it suddenly the final word?

Didn't you have to ask for everyone's opinions before?

This...... Wouldn't it feel a little bit of a royal feeling?

"Wait a minute, editor-in-chief, I also have a very good new work here."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Yuanbiao hurriedly said, "It was discovered by my subordinate editor Ming Lan, and it is also a new comic work that I think has the potential to be serialized in Dimensional Weekly, you might as well take a look." ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, the editor-in-chief looked at it in surprise.
