281. Select

Although the manuscript was barely rushed out later, the trouble of dragging people into the muddy whirlpool was not solved, but time never looked back, and in the blink of an eye, the bipolar November came to an end, and in the blink of an eye it was a new month.

Because this is the last month of the year, the whole atmosphere makes people feel very busy, and it seems that everyone is not willing to put off this year's work until the next year, whether it is laughter or sadness, and the next year is a new year.

"It's not necessarily useful to numb yourself like this." Liao Yuqing said with her cheeks on her cheeks.

"Yes." Liang Yu smiled bitterly.

This month is the day of Comiket's winter exhibition, and as a club that has gained a large number of popular fans since its debut in recent years, it is natural that this time it is necessary to book a place at the Comiket exhibition and confirm that it will participate.

The theme hasn't changed.,It's still a continuation of the story about Gensokyo.,It's just that this time Yuwen Hitomi seems to want to make the scene bigger.,Decided to do a linkage about the East.,Not only invited the original author of the Gensokyo series ZUN to come over.,And specially for him.,And a few clubs that have been in touch.,Good relationship (the previous booth agreed to have a second homo club) booked a place on the side.,It's bound to do a linkage of the Oriental series.。

Everyone's emotions are high, and it is no wonder that as ACG enthusiasts, if there is one thing that excites people in a year, it must be the two Comiket exhibitions, and for many people, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is jihad.

The joy of thinking of the fruits of one's hard work, the images printed in color and ink, printed in a book, and then handed over to every reader who likes them, is priceless. Liang Yu, who understands this, also tries his best to cooperate with everyone and does not show his troubles on his face.

But the whole club actually understands Liang Yu's dilemma, because "Chess Soul" is still in a very difficult situation, first of all, its results cannot be said to be good at all, and it has been falling behind the top ten, except for a brief increase in the latest talk show, but playing the emotional card cannot save the popularity of Chess Soul.

In this way, everyone must be deeply worried about "Chess Soul", but the result is subtly different, editor Guo Pinyuan has made it very clear that the chess soul will not be cut off, because although it is ranked more than ten, it is much lower than the past results, but it still does not exceed the waist cut line, and there is another point, Chess Soul is a long-form popular work with a single book of more than one million, and there have been many magazines in the history of comics that have not been ranked well, but the works that sell out of stock in single books are especially adult comics.

This is not difficult to understand, for example, there are many adults who don't buy Fantasy magazines, but they will go to bookstores when they have nothing to do, buy comics they are interested in, and there are many readers who join halfway, watch animations, or be taught, if they go directly to buy Fantasy magazines, then they can only see the plot of the latest episode, and the previous plot is disconnected, these people will buy a single book, but the release time of the single book and the plot of the magazine are also disconnected. There will always be some people who have developed the habit of only buying books but not magazines, and there are quite a few of them.

Of course, there are also people who buy magazines because they read a single book, so I won't talk about that.

The current situation of the chess soul should be neither good nor bad in the final analysis, but for Chen Nan, who has strong self-esteem, this is the worst.

Chen Nan's recent situation, Liang Yu felt that there was a bit of a magic barrier, she went to the studio once recently, but the two of them sat there for more than three hours and only talked for no more than 10 sentences, Chen Nan has been painting, and Liang Yu can only sit and watch her from a distance.

Liang Yu went to find Huang Yuan once during this time, her Margalilyn's editor-in-charge.

The two of them ordered a drink as usual, and then discussed the storyboard content of her serialized works and friends' accounts, Huang Yuan is a very interesting person, very good at mobilizing the atmosphere, and very good at talking, which made Liang Yu feel that this was a very sleek guy for a while, but I have to admit that many of the suggestions he gave are appropriate, after all, Liang Yu has been doing the original work of shonen comics for almost a year, and many of the creative methods of shoun comics are extremely unfamiliar, at this point, Huang Yuan is not a big help to her.

But Huang Yuan gained more, and it turned out that his gamble on Liang Yu was correct, and the friend's account became more and more popular episode by episode, and even at a speed that could be discerned by the naked eye, which drove the overall sales of Margalilyn's magazine.

You need to know that this is just the beginning, there is no CD yet, no animation, no games, live-action movies and peripherals, but Huang Yuan has been able to see it, and in the near future, as long as Liang Yu maintains his current creative level, these will definitely be there.

Look at the storyboard in my hand, it's still quite perfect.

This faint sadness, faint melancholy seems to be embedded in every picture and text, not pretentious, but natural, it feels like Liang Yu gives people the feeling.

Huang Yuan was full of praise for this, he was not stupid, as a competent editor, he naturally knew the author's situation well, he knew the situation of the chess soul, and he also knew the reason why Liang Yu was unhappy, but it was precisely because of this that he spoke harder.

But there are some things that can't be hidden, and what should come will always come.

Just as she was about to end the meeting happily (and perhaps not so pleasantly), Liang Yu said to him something that would definitely offend the editor to death, even if it was a complete reversal, she said: "I don't want to draw comics. ”

This is not what a professional cartoonist should say, and if he does, it also means that his fate with this comic magazine is over.

The smile froze on Huang Yuan's face, he had already stood up and was about to go to the counter to settle the bill, these words made him sit down again, think about it, if you are in Huang Yuan's perspective, in a state where the situation is very good, promotion and fortune are just around the corner, and success is just around the corner, it will end because the author has a completely unclear sentence, not only that, but also when you have to take the blame.

Do you angrily say, "You're crazy?" "What about shouting such words, or persuading them with bitter words? But Huang Yuan seemed very calm, he only asked: "Because of the chess soul?" ”

Liang Yu nodded.

In fact, Liang Yu was also an adult in her previous life, she knew very well how irresponsible she was to make this request, and she also knew how much trouble it would bring to the other party, and she was even ready to be sued by the other party for breach of contract.

But Huang Yuan didn't get angry, but said calmly but very seriously: "Everyone's life is full of all kinds of different choices, some are good, some are bad, some are right, some are wrong, no one can judge them except the person who made the choice." So, if you think that quitting is necessary for the sake of chess, then I won't stop you, but I just hope you can think it through carefully, is this really the crux of the matter? If you don't draw a friend's account, if you don't draw a friend's account, can you improve your performance by focusing on the chess soul? In this way, the manuscript of this issue is already here, you can stop the next issue, and I will do it for you in the editorial department, use this time to think about what you need now, and then tell me your choice before it is too late. ”
