121. Chen Xiongye's storyboard

"Teacher Liangyu, there is something I want to ask you." Chen Xiongye bent down to Liang Yu and said.

Such exaggerated speech and demeanor really scared Liang Yu, in the final analysis, there is not much age difference between them, they are all of the same age, although the other two assistants will also call Liang Yu a teacher, but it is somewhat ridiculous in it, and the atmosphere is not so serious, but this tall man is obviously serious.

Liang Yu glanced at the main seat where Chen Nan was sitting, and the latter shrugged helplessly.

Liang Yu focused his gaze on Chen Xiongye's face and asked hesitantly, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"If you're free, can you help me see the storyboard?"

"Hey, is it a storyboard for a magazine submission?" It's nothing.,Generally speaking, the relationship between serializers and assistants is similar to the relationship between masters and apprentices.,There are many cartoonists who start as assistants.,And as a senior teacher serialized in magazines.,It's reasonable to give assistants some advice and help on their works.。

"Yes," Chen Xiongye nodded, his expression still quite restrained: "Because I have already won the Red Dragon Award and have been serialized on Fantasy for two months, I can't sign up for the Golden Apple Cup anymore, but the editor in charge asked me to draw something new and show it to him, and if it's interesting, submit it to the serialization meeting." ”

"Oh, okay." If it was just to give advice, Liang Yu was naturally willing to help, but Chen Nan over there interjected in a timely manner: "I have to wait until the work is over." ”

"Got it, thank you very much." After saying so forcefully, Chen Xiongye returned to his seat and did the work at hand even harder, his eyes burning, as if his whole body was about to burn.

Liang Yu looked at Chen Xiongye like this, and felt that Chen Nan was not wrong, this person was really different from other assistants.

Speaking of which, if the creatures of manga writers and writers are creating a world with their pens, then the job of an assistant is to be the one who contributes to this world according to the requirements of the creator god. It cannot be said that this work is not important, if the cartoonist leaves the assistant, then the heavy work is on the shoulders of the author alone, and in the long run, the quality and speed of the work will seriously decrease, and this is the benefit of the assistant.

However, for a person with a dream, this is not a job worth doing for a lifetime. They will fight hard because it's much more fun to create your own world than to help build someone else's world.

Chen Xiongye is undoubtedly the latter.

So when the other two assistants left on time, he stayed and handed Liang Yu the original manuscript he had drawn with great difficulty.

"Please give me a little advice, please don't take care of me, I will accept any criticism and opinions."

Such straightforward words are not humble words, Liang Yu looked at the other party's burning gaze, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, this person is like a character in a hot-blooded comic.

She didn't make a fuss anymore, if she felt strange every time, it would be endless, and after taking the original manuscript handed over by Chen Xiongye, Liang Yu's first impression was that the painting was very good. is worthy of a writer who has experience in serialization, and his works have completely faded away from the youthfulness of ordinary newcomers, and gradually revealed his own style. In particular, the semi-realistic painting style highlights his sketching skills, but it is effectively combined with comics, the lines are concise, and the cleanliness is not like the messy and "dirty" feeling of sketching.

This is Liang Yu's first impression, but the quality of the painting should not be the point, if it is to ask for something about painting skills, Chen Xiongye probably will not ask himself but go directly to Chen Nan, and he finds his own meaning, nothing more than to let himself give some opinions on the content of the story.

This story is a very common campus comic on Fantasy.,The hero is a bad boy called Sakuragi.,The content of the story is also very simple.,It's Sunday.,Sakuragi and a group of friends were wandering on the street.,See a young and beautiful girl on the road.,The frivolous Sakuragi immediately got excited.,Want to chase that girl.,As a result, a group of bad friends laughed at him and was bound to fail.。

Sakuragi, who was unwilling to be ridiculed, was aggressive, but when he adjusted his breathing and mustered up the courage to go up and talk, he found that the boyfriend the girl was waiting for came, and Sakuragi stood on the spot, and he had fallen out of love before he confessed. A group of friends beat gongs and trumpets around him to celebrate, and are punished by Sakuragi with a hammer.

Sakuragi, who was in a lost mood, put his hands in his pockets and was about to leave the scene gloomily, but as a result, the voice of the girl exclaiming was heard not far away, and Sakuragi turned his head and found that it was the girl and her boyfriend just now. The hooligan was entangled. The girl's weak boyfriend couldn't protect her at all, and now she was being slapped on the shoulder with her hand, looking trembling.

What a godsend! Sakuragi thought to himself, as long as there is a hero to save the beauty at this time, maybe he can win the girl's heart.

And then, just as Sakuragi planned, he stepped forward to block the girl's face, and staged a scene of heroes saving beauty, Sakuragi's fight was super strong, and the other party said where the little ghost came from one second, and the next second he was beaten all over the ground looking for teeth. In the end, he could only say "you remember me", and then fled in disgrace.

According to Sakuragi's script, he could turn around and say coolly, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you no matter what happens", but unexpectedly, the girl ran to his boyfriend's side, anxiously checked his situation, and then glared angrily at Sakuragi and his party.

"Don't come here, or I'll call the police!"

"Koharu, don't be afraid, no matter what happens, I will protect you."

"Ah, Xiaojian."

Sakuragi looked at the two little lovers dumbfounded. If no one is around, there is no one looking at me and me, but I didn't expect that the result of my hero's rescue of beauty was to be regarded as a bad person. The tears of laughter fell from the laughter of a group of friends behind him, and Sakuragi gave them a hammer to each of them, and then disappeared into the street alone in the setting sun.

Liang Yu turned the last page of the story.

"How?" Chen Xiongye asked very concernedly.

"Uh......" Liang Yu pondered the language, then looked at Chen Xiongye's eager eyes and said: "To be honest, this story may be good as a short story, but as a story comic to be serialized, it does not have a core content. ”

"What is the core content......

"Yes, for example, "Chess Soul" is Go, and the comics on Fantasy basically need a clear theme, even if it is a funny comic, there must be one or two unconventional settings, but in this story, I don't see anything that can attract the reader's attention." After Liang Yu finished speaking, he still apologized: "I'm sorry, this is my personal opinion, I may be a little self-righteous." ”

"No, Mr. Liangyu's evaluation is very pertinent," Chen Xiongye said busily: "But how to choose hot and unpopular themes in general, I have also drawn one or two drafts of battle comics before, but the editor told me to draw these in my style, and it should be difficult for the work to become popular." ”

Indeed, this style of painting is indeed mature in terms of juvenile magazines, and it can already catch up with the level of youth comics.

"Hmm...... To be honest, I don't know what kind of manga will be popular, but in this case, why don't you try drawing your favorite type of manga. ”

"Favorite type?"

"That's right, for example, "Chess Soul" was also thought of by me when I had an idea, I didn't think it would be popular before I drew it, and it could become a serial, but thanks to it, I can now know Chen Nan, know you, and sit here as a cartoonist."

The sentence "......" made Chen Xiongye suddenly.
