Chapter 222: The Judgment Conference
As the long-haired brother was talking, two people walked out of it.
One of the old brothers looked dejected, and at a glance he knew that he had not made a draft.
Another staff member shouted at the long-haired otaku manga artist, "Next." ”
It didn't take long to review the short manga, and after more than ten minutes, the long-haired otaku manga artist also came out dejected.
No need to ask, the long-haired buddy is also hanging.
Seeing that there were two people hanging in a row, Li Ze couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart, Nima, won't he also hit the street?
After entering, Li Ze handed the manuscript and a copy to the review assistant.
"Hello, we are Little Shrimp Comic Studio, this is our latest comic work, it is a horror ......"
The assistant waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, got it, you just have to wait there for a while." ”
The assistant divided the manuscript into three editors who reviewed the manuscript, and the editor in charge of reviewing the manuscript whispered his views while reading them.
Li Ze, on the other hand, sat down very uncomfortably.
Alas, people are poor and short of breath, and it is very uncomfortable to sit like a prisoner waiting for trial.
But there is no way, Li Ze needs a manuscript fee very much!
There was no other noise in the room, so Li Ze could also listen to the whispers of the reviewers.
"The charm of the heroine is quite good."
"Oh no, this is a blue pool, I prefer a little purer."
"It's so disgusting, my scalp is tingling when I look at it."
"Painting skills are a bit immature."
"Readers shouldn't accept Bichi as the protagonist, right?"
"It's hard to say, I like this kind of charismatic debauchery, but it's really not suitable for the mainstream market right now."
"It's a disgusting painting style, so it's not recommended."
"Yes, yes, rookie cartoonists can't control this kind of realism at all."
Li Ze listened to the dialogue of the reviewers and editors, and felt more and more bad in his heart, and it sounded like there were many voices of opposition.
After ten minutes, but it was like 10 hours of review, the review editor of "Long Look" spoke.
"Ahem, what about this work, it's called ...... "Tomie", right, I personally think it's still good, there are some ideas."
"But in terms of painting skills, I feel that there is still something missing."
"In addition, the setting of the heroine, I personally like this kind of character, and I'm tired of seeing it stupidly and sweetly. But considering our readership, a heroine like Tomie will be somewhat risky commercially. ”
Hearing this, Li Ze knew that it was over, and the song was cool!
Another review editor also said: "Even though it's a horror manga, you also have to take into account the sensory experience of readers. ”
The last review editor said: "As you can see, our "Long Mankan" has recently reached a higher level, and the requirements for comic manuscripts are also higher. Frankly speaking, there are some bright spots in this Tomie, but it is also very problematic, and commercial success is unlikely. ”
"I hope you can go back and improve a little, and there will still be opportunities for cooperation in the future. Seriously, at least the plot is good. ”
In the end, the three review editors announced together: "Tomie's work is still a little worse, and there are many problems in all aspects, which is why we refused." I'm sorry, your little shrimp's works still don't meet the requirements of our "Long Look". ”
OK!
The death penalty was declared outright.
The attributes of the manga "Tomie" are: 20 drawing skills, 47 characters, 101 plots, and 33 personalities.
It seems that there is only a plot of 101, which conquered the review editor of "Long Look".
Li Ze was a little disappointed, after all, this is Junji Ito's masterpiece!
Such a classic comic can't even conquer a mere "Long Look"?
It was obviously a very good original comic manuscript, but it was ruthlessly rejected, and Li Ze couldn't help but recall the fear of being rejected and dominated by various families when he was playing in the field game.
There is no place to stay here, Li Ze got up and took back the manuscript and prepared to leave.
But at this time, a crisp and tough female voice sounded: "No, our work, Xiao Xiami's work, is not so bad." ”
Yuzi, who is enthusiastic about the comic industry, was obviously hit hard, she was half to the review editor, half to herself: "It's obviously a very good work, why do you evaluate it like this?" It shouldn't be! ”
The review editor just smiled and said with a hint of contempt: "Young people, it's good to have enthusiasm and confidence, but your work is indeed of a very average level." We are all professional review editors for many years, and you can't go wrong. ”
"Frankly, your comics, no."
stopped Yuzi from arguing again, Li Ze took Yuzi and left this "Long Look".
Seeing that Yuzi was hit hard, Li Ze comforted him: "Yuzi, don't take it to heart, it is impossible for our works to conquer everyone." I can't look down on this one, so let's change it? Anyway, the quality of our own works is hard enough, and there will always be publishers who will take a fancy to it. ”
Yuzi nodded when he heard this, and said with some weakness: "I know, we will definitely succeed." It's just that...... I'm really angry that our studio has painted such a good work, but it has been belittled like that. ”
Li Ze smiled and said that he had experienced all of this.
After experiencing it, it will be light and light.
"Long Look" has failed here, so you have to go to the next one.
Fortunately, this is a high-tech zone, and there are many comic publishing houses, so you don't have to travel long distances.
I checked it on my phone and found that there was a comic book publishing house on the opposite street.
This time, the publisher is called "Manga 321".
Coming to the building of "Comic 321", Li Ze couldn't help but nod and praise: "The brand-new office building is much better than the one just now." ”
Yuzi was also reading relevant information on the Internet.
"Comics 321", one of the oldest comic publishing houses in China, has experienced more than half a century of ups and downs, and now "Comic 321" has a circulation of more than 2 million.
Although it lacks sharpness and rarely releases works that cause a sensation in the market, "Manga 321", which has a circulation of more than 2 million copies, has no doubt about its strength and status.
In addition, the editorial team of "Comic 321" is the highest level in the industry, and the editorial team of "Comic 321" won the team award at the 78th Comic Editing Honor Conference last year, which further proves the level and strength of the editors of "Comic 321".
After listening to the background strength of "Comic 321", Li Zele said: "Look! If you don't stay here, you have your own place to stay here, what did you look at just now and don't want us? I don't like them yet! ”
"The target is locked, just this "Comic 321"!"
