263. Editor's Judgment
"This person who paints the background is quite powerful." This was the first sentence that the other party said after Liang Yu handed over the sketch to Huang Yuan.
Huang Yuan didn't ask Liang Yu a stupid question that he only needed to hand in half of the manuscript, but now he got the original manuscript with 100% completion, because when he looked at this background, he knew that someone had helped Liang Yu.
Huang Yuan's expression on his face remained unchanged, but he was muttering in his heart, the strength of this person who painted the background is obviously very high, it could be that Teacher Chen Nan helped paint it, but this problem was dispelled by Huang Yuan as soon as it first appeared-because Chen Nan is still hospitalized.
Editors are like this, first quickly read the manuscript, the speed of these dozens of manuscripts is more than two minutes, when he reads it and immediately speaks, then the result of this submission is also very auspicious, only when he reads the manuscript again, it means that this manuscript has a play, and Huang Yuan read Liang Yu's original manuscript three times, and it is longer than one time.
This seems to be a good thing, but Liang Yu, who was originally quite indifferent, became a little nervous because of him, because there is a saying called overdoing it.
Could it be that this manuscript is not to his liking, but Huang Yuan was too full of words at the beginning, so now he feels that it is difficult to ride a tiger, right?
It wasn't until Huang Yuan pushed and folded the manuscript several times and opened his mouth to speak that Liang Yu's heart fell back into her stomach, she didn't think that she had become a professional cartoonist for more than a year, and this feeling of being discussed and submitted by the editor was the same as the first time she entered the conference room on the first floor of the White Bird Club Building in a daze.
Of course, now Huang Yuan has made an appointment to meet her in a café outside, because he understands that Liang Yu doesn't want to make his switch to "Margaliline" public for the time being, and Huang Yuan always has a very good grasp of the author's requirements and ideas.
"I'm really surprised, to be honest, I've watched "Chess Soul", and I think Teacher Liangyu is delicate, and it's more suitable for girl's comics, but maybe I was wrong," Seeing Liang Yu's expression change slightly, Huang Yuan hurriedly explained: "It's not that Teacher Liangyu is not suitable, but it's very suitable, it's too suitable, I always thought that Teacher Liangyu was a genius type with a flash of inspiration, but I didn't expect it to be a calculating type, no, it should be said that it is a calculation plus genius, I'm really surprised, I just mentioned it a little, and I was able to do it to this extent......"
Although Huang Yuan's words were a little incomprehensible, more like looking at the original manuscript, Liang Yu felt that this should be praising himself, and he was immediately relieved.
"So can this manuscript be used?"
"Of course there is no problem with the story," Huang Yuan nodded: "However, the picture still needs to be modified." ”
Liang Yu sighed in his heart, sure enough, his painting style is not in the eyes of editors.
But what Huang Yuan didn't expect to say was: "Although I'm sorry to say it, can this background be removed and repainted?" ”
"Huh?"
"Ah, if you feel embarrassed, it's okay to leave it to me, I'll find someone to help you change it."
This made Liang Yu puzzled, if she was asked to redraw the characters or something, she couldn't say anything to refute, because she didn't use a round pen, her lines were very broken, and there was no feeling of Chen Nan and Xiaolin when they were painting, and the lines were moving in one stroke and the thickness was appropriate, but it was like revising and revising and patching, but now the editor said that it was not the characters but the background that was to be changed, which made her a little confused.
"Could it be that Editor Huang has someone with a more powerful painting background?"
"No, my assistants here are all amateurs, and even if you can find a professional level, you may not be able to catch up with this person who helps you draw the background." Huang Yuan told the truth.
"Then why ......"
"You're trying to ask me why this background is so well drawn, and you have to remove it, right?"
Liang Yu nodded.
"The reason is very simple," Huang Yuan laughed: "Although this background is very powerful, it is inevitably a little too noisy, I read this cartoon three times before and after, and then I will completely understand the artistic conception of this." If you are a reader who only reads it once, I am afraid that you will not have the patience to do so. ”
"Or I'm too bad at drawing." Liang Yu smiled wryly.
"It's okay," Huang Yuan shook his head: he thought for a moment before saying, "To be honest, the teacher is the original one, and he eats by the content of the story." What's more, many of the original authors of comics can't even draw a storyboard well, and the drawing is like a primary school student doodling, and I have heard many complaints about this kind of thing. I originally had the idea of looking for someone to repair it if it really didn't work.,But now it seems,Liang Yu's painting skills are still good.,What needs to be practiced is the use of brushes.,Rendering of details.,And the hero and other characters are drawn a little more beautiful.,After all, it's a girl's comic.。 ”
These opinions were quite pertinent, and Liang Yu nodded.
Huang Yuan looked at her and smiled: "Come to Japan, come to Japan, I will accept this manuscript, and leave the background modification to me next, I will definitely not let you down." ”
He said so, and Liang Yu couldn't say anything more.
After all, for "Margalilyn", she is still a complete newcomer, and she has no room for bargaining with the editor, and she doesn't think what Huang Yuan said is wrong.
Trust the editor's judgment here.
"Okay, then we're done talking about the serialization, I'll go back and ask people to revise it, this issue of the No. 17 hairstyle is not good, it should be able to catch up with the issue published at the beginning of next month, just take the opportunity to publicize it."
Hearing this, Liang Yu interjected and said, "Editor Huang, about the pen name." ”
"I know, in order to distinguish it from "Chess Soul", use rain to cool it, right?"
"Hmm...... Wouldn't it be a little more straightforward?" What she meant was that it would be too similar to the original and be noticed.
"Actually, you must care too much about this, and ......" Huang Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "There is no way to hide this matter from Lao Guo." I don't know where your partner is, but once you decide to serialize it on Margaretline for a long time, you will be involved in a contract that is different from that of Fantasy magazine, because it involves the distribution of benefits and related terms, and your current editor in charge of Fantasy must also be present at the same time and make some revisions to the terms of the previous contract. ”
"Does Chen Nan also need to be there?"
"It doesn't matter what she says, because this is your contract with the White Bird Society, not hers, the part of your and Teacher Chen Nan's common interests will not change, only the part of the annuity security agreement will change." Huang Yuan shrugged: "After all, "Fantasy" and "Margalilyn" belong to different departments, but they belong to the same company, so the guaranteed amount of the annuity can only be paid in one copy, but the work and serial time must be written, because you know that the annuity will be interrupted if there is no work to support it." Hehe, doesn't it feel very troublesome, and the money you get is not very much? But this is a procedural problem, it must be done in this way, there is no way. But don't worry, I know you don't want to make a noise, I'll take care of Guo Pinyuan's words for you, after all, we are also the same period, I think he will sell my face. ”
It is said that Huang Yuan can be a man, this is a small thing to see a big one, he has considered what you are inconvenient to say and what is inconvenient to do, and took it down, how can you be embarrassed to refuse.
Liang Yu, who thought like this, could only nod his head in agreement in the end.
