125. Webcomics

A day after meeting Luo Shaocong, his mother came back from a business trip, Liang Yu, Chen Nan and his mother, and began to buy New Year's goods.

During this time, Liang Yu's side seemed relatively lonely, many of the friends he knew were not in Qiu Nan, and Zhu Ying was the only one who occasionally came to visit the door, and she began to complain as soon as she came, because Fang Qing went abroad soon after the start of the winter vacation, and I heard that she would come back after this winter in warm South Asia, and Zhu Ying's family was just an ordinary salaryman, so it was naturally impossible to go abroad because of the cold weather, and when this time came, her relatives came over, and she was also responsible for bringing those young people, and it was troublesome to think about it.

"Hey, why can't I be born in a rich family?" Sitting in Liang Yu's room, Zhu Ying complained that she was flipping through the comics taken from Liang Yu's bookshelf.

At this time, Liang Yu was practicing drawing with a pen tablet, and Chen Nan was responsible for teaching her beside her.

"Don't complain, the life of a rich person may not be as complete as you imagined." Chen Nan said.

Liang Yu agrees with this point of view, especially after studying in Cangnan Women's College for half a year, this feeling is getting stronger and stronger, such as what happened to Bai Ya, Senior Sister Meihua's dead sister, and Senior Sister Liu Jia who is in the same dormitory as Liang Yu, although she usually gives people a sense of autonomy in the center, but listening to herself, she must wear a skirt when she is at home, and she often needs to attend those troublesome social occasions and force her face to laugh.

In this way, it is really a scripture that is difficult to read.

However, Zhu Ying objected to this: "That's better than us children from poor families, most of the red envelopes received during the New Year will be confiscated by parents, say what to save, only a little bit can be obtained, and you have to bring those troublesome ghosts, you can't be angry with them, general knowledge, otherwise my mother will have to yell at me." ”

"By the way, don't you have a brother?"

"He, he didn't care about this kind of thing, he ran out alone and went chic, let me be tossed to death by those little ghosts." Zhu Ying said indignantly.

“……”

Chen Nan and Liang Yu looked at each other and smiled bitterly for no reason.

In fact, Liang Yu knows that Zhu Ying has always been hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, she is the kind of person who can't let go of seeing it, but she likes to chatter.

Zhu Ying talked for a while, maybe she got venting, and finally stopped, she put down the comic in her hand, stood up and looked at Liang Yu and Chen Nan, and asked, "Hey, is this CG?" ”

"Well, but I'm not very good at it yet, Chen Nan is teaching me how to use this software." Liang Yu is poking and writing on the pen tablet with a pen, and the place where the tip of the pen crosses pulls out a line on the screen, "I have always used an ordinary pen, and it feels a little strange to draw with this." ”

"It's normal to be uncomfortable at first, and I've been adapting to it for a long time." Chen Nan said.

Zhu Ying was suddenly aroused by her curiosity, her curiosity has always been very strong, so she immediately turned her head over. She looked at the movements of Liang Yuyun's pen, and drew very slowly and carefully, but Liang Yu had practiced for so long, and the basic skills were still there, and the lines she drew were quite beautiful, but she didn't dare to compliment this speed.

Chen Nan said: "In fact, the pen can be more decisive, because this is drawn on the computer and can be modified at any time, which is also a benefit of CG." ”

"Hmm."

Zhu Ying watched it for a while, and what she watched was also in the clouds, she likes anime very much, and she is very familiar with Comiket and comic magazines, but she doesn't know anything about the professional knowledge of specific production, which is actually normal, and most people look at these pictures as a hobby and fun, and they will not delve into this aspect.

Zhu Ying saw that Liang Yu was slowly drawing an anime character, so she asked, "Xiaoyu is learning this, is she preparing for the next Comiket?" ”

Comiket has twice a year, held in mid-August and at the end of December, which belongs to the grand event of the same year, Liang Yu's school club Cangnan Animation Club drew the story of Oriental Fantasy on Comiket before, which was well received, and the sales broke the record.

But Liang Yu shook his head with a smile: "Everyone has mentioned this matter, but it is not such an urgent matter, after all, there is still more than half a year before the next session." I think it's fun to learn this, so I asked Chen Nan to teach me to practice my hands. ”

Things are just as Liang Yu said, she saw that Chen Nan had an extra pen tablet and it was useless, so she wanted to come over to learn it.

"That's ......" Zhu Ying looked at Liang Yu's painting and muttered: "I think Xiaoyu, your painting is very good, much better than those on the Internet." ”

Having said this, Zhu Ying herself was stunned, she suddenly thought of something, and clasped her hands excitedly: "By the way, Xiaoyu, you can try to draw on the Internet!"

"Online?" Not only Liang Yu, but Chen Nan was also stunned.

"Yes, now you can draw not only in magazines, but also on websites." Zhu Ying said.

"I do know some CG networks, where everyone posts their drawings on the Internet for people to taste, and exchanges their drawing experiences with each other." Chen Nan said that in fact, when she got started, she also looked for special tutorials on the Internet, and she made a lot of gains under these plates.

"No, no, no," Zhu Ying shook her finger with a smug expression: "I'm not talking about that, it's a comic, it's a comic!" Don't you guys know about Black Island Comics? ”

"What's that?" Chen Nan and Liang Yu both asked.

"Well, it's a professional cartoonist, it's really an easy answer." Zhu Ying didn't give up, and continued to popularize science: "As the name suggests, it is a website that puts comics, and it will publish some online versions authorized by magazines, as well as providing an original webtoon platform, and now its popularity seems to be rising, and recently there have been rumors that comics have been favored by distributors and are going to be made into animations." ”

"Well, I don't know." Chen Nan has not been in contact with the computer for a long time, so it is not surprising that he does not know.

"I can't say anything just by explaining, let's just log in and take a look, Xiaoyu, lend me the mouse." Zhu Ying got to Liang Yu's side, took the mouse she let go, clicked on the browser on the desktop, and then entered a string of addresses.

The screen on the web page quickly changed, and a page of comic carousels popped up.

"Is this the comic site you're talking about?" Chen Nan quickly browsed the interface and said, "Click in and take a look." ”

Zhu Ying clicked on the title page of one of the most handy comics, this is a very conspicuous recommendation, soon, brush out the information content of the comics, the first thing that catches the eye is the color cover of the comics, and then the information such as the number of views and popularity, Zhu Ying crossed these, clicked on the first chapter of the following content, and after a brief reading, the text of the comic appeared on the screen.

"It's pretty convenient, but this comic is really average."

Chen Nan said this, and Zhu Ying couldn't refute it, but people are professional.

"Of course, in the end, if there is such a professional level, they must all be directly submitted to the magazine, after all, it makes a lot of money, and the people here are usually some enthusiasts, or people who do comics part-time, and they can have readers to see their comics, hone their skills and get some money at the same time, which is actually quite good."

"Huh, how many?" Chen Nan sounded a little curious.

"It should be a fee share, but I don't know how much." Zhu Ying let go of the mouse and let go a little.

Chen Nan took the mouse and flipped through the website, and soon lost interest, it turned out that he needed to sign a contract with the website first, and then charge for the painted chapters, and if someone subscribed, he would share the money with the website equally, which is understandable, but seeing the amount of clicks and comments, it can only be said that it is quite an amateur thing, at least a cartoonist like her who is running for a profession or is already a profession will not choose.
