Chapter 73: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Cang Shuhong temporarily lived in Li Yuntao's house, and Li Yuntao suggested that she relax her mood, go out shopping every day, and buy things.
However, in less than two days, Cang Shuhong just felt the onset of occupational disease, that is, if you don't draw comics, you will lose sleep, and you feel that something is wrong all over your body.
I'm afraid this is the reason why many super-popular gods who have earned money that they can't spend in a hundred lifetimes still insist on creating. Obsessive-compulsive disorder, it will be painful to rush to create, but it will be more painful not to let the creation rest.
In fact, Li Yuntao also has a similar situation, and often verbally says that code words are very tiring, and there are always 31 days a month when he doesn't want code words. However, if you don't code words for a few days, you will definitely feel unmotivated. On the contrary, after rushing to type out a few thousand words, my waist is no longer sore, my head is no longer painful, and I can sleep at night.
For this reason, Li Yuntao specially accompanied Cang Shuhong to a shopping mall to purchase equipment for comic creation, drawing tools, paper, computers and scanners.
In fact, the tile Internet is more pervasive in this world, and most cartoonists have adapted to using computer tablets and software to create. Those who still insist on drawing comics with paper and pen are already considered niche.
However, Cangshuhong is still accustomed to using traditional brushes, and of course, it is not completely unaware of using computer software to create. However, I used to use pen and paper to create a sketch sketch on paper and pen, and after I was almost done, I used a high-definition scanner to scan the sketch into a computer picture file, and then used software to further process and color it.
Mainly in the coloring process, it is colored with paper and pen, and it is difficult to modify it after making mistakes. However, if you make a mistake on your computer, you can always go back to a previously saved version and start over.
Therefore, even Cangshuhong, who is accustomed to using traditional paper and pen to create, gradually feels that computer creation is actually very aspect.
"Na, it's the web version of Tencent Animation and the author's backstage......" Li Yuntao entered the account password that only the comic author has, and after entering the backstage, he explained some rules to Cang Shuhong, "At present, the comic has been collected by more than 10,000 readers." However, the domestic webtoon charging model is still in its infancy, and the cycle of accumulating popularity is relatively long. Tencent Animation is basically a few dozen words later, and some are even free to more than 100 words before they start to be on the shelves. The cycle of accumulating popularity is relatively long. If you are an ordinary author who is counting on manuscript fees to support his family, it is difficult to survive such a long period of popularity accumulation. Therefore, many of Tencent Comics' comics are professional studios or comic companies that specialize in long-term serialization to cultivate popularity. On the one hand, the online comic charging market is also growing rapidly, and in addition, if the comic is charged after the subscription is ideal, it further increases the confidence of IP development, adapted games, and animation. ”
"It's so professional!" Cang Shuhong said.
"Generally speaking, in fact, I only know a little bit about the novel platform of the Reading Literature Department. Other comic platforms, Gengen did not integrate into that circle. Li Yuntao said.
"Hey, there have been hundreds of reader comments, some of which are so professional, and the online comments seem to be very active, which looks quite powerful. Cang Shuhong excitedly looked at the serialized popularity of the comics, "By the way, what is the popularity of those top cartoonists?"
Li Yuntao quickly found the best-selling list, and at a casual glance, it was the 3.85 million collection of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady", the 3.57 million collection of "Under One Man", and the 3.59 million collection of the comic version of "Breaking the Sky......
In other words, as far as the largest animation platform in China is concerned, the comics of the pyramid order are more than 3 million collections. Such a level of popularity means that as soon as it is updated, millions of readers will follow it on the first platform of the comics, and its influence is comparable to the number of readers of top magazines.
What makes Li Yuntao even more speechless is that the top three in the comic industry can still see "Dou Po". This work, even if you are not convinced, you can't ignore its sales.
Purely on the Internet, the cumulative sales amount of the electronic version of the original novel of "Dou Po" has not been surpassed by other novels so far. In this way, the whole network can be called a top-level IP, and it is naturally a bunch of adaptation projects for comics, animation, games, film and television. Of course, the comics of "Dou Po" should be considered relatively successful, at least, the sales of paper comics seem to be more than hundreds of thousands per episode, and they are also considered to be the head works in the domestic paper comic book market. The online version is also one of the top three popular comics.
Li Yuntao's previous boasting capital was this terrifying author, who used to be under the same website, the same editorial team, and the same editor-in-charge as him. Trying to create an atmosphere where I am a colleague with Big Potato, and I am a colleague with Big Potato.
But...... On a large Internet website, there are hundreds of contracted authors under the command of a random editor-in-charge, and these authors are red and purple, and some are small and transparent that no one cares about.
After Cang Shuhong took a look at a few of the most popular Chinese webtoon works, she was not interested in Wang Daoman, who had hot-blooded themes such as "Dou Po" and "Under One Man", but it was the girl-oriented comic of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" that quickly conquered Teacher Cang Shuhong.
"Li Yuntao, this comic is good-looking, not inferior to the comic on "JUMC". If I had been exposed to such a subject before, I would probably create something similar!"
"Really?"
In recent years, the domestic comic and animation industry has grown rapidly, and most of the works are disgusted and abandoned, and the reputation is a mess in China, let alone exported overseas.
But "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" should be a rare popular and win-win Chinese comic with word-of-mouth.
Of course, the anime version is an adaptation of the big dream destruction, and it is purely accidental that it can be adapted into a work of conscience.
Dream Destroying Animation Company is not a company with the concept of high-quality products, but is known for its animation OEM and production capacity. Because,The pursuit is mainly OEM.,So,The quality of the animation,Can't be determined.。 Some animations are of a certain level of high quality, and some animations are miserable.
The RB anime giant, which is similar to the dream-destroying mode, should be the ANIPLEX company. This company is almost every season of the new anime.,You can see a bunch of new anime produced by ANIPLEX.,And this company has both high-quality and surprisingly high-quality animation.,There are also bad works that the audience wants to beat.。 Because, ANIPLEX does not have a fixed animation creation team, but a very large animation production factory, under which there are different projects and different teams working every day. If you're lucky, or if the price given is enough, maybe ANIPLEX will use the elite to do it in the future. If you don't have enough budget, or the company is perfunctory, the adapted animation work may not be so reliable.
Therefore, the production of ANIPLEX is equivalent to telling the audience that I can't guarantee the level of this animation. If it's not a surprise, you're mentally prepared anyway. If, when you encounter a good work, well, if you don't change teams and don't collapse later, you're lucky.
Dream Destroying Animation Company is also like this, and its output is relatively high among domestic animation companies. There are very few word-of-mouth conscientious works, but many of the works are purely for exercising the newcomer team, and by the way, they earn some OEM fees.
The original work of "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" is very popular, and the anime adaptation has further refreshed its popularity. The popularity of the entire animation IP should be regarded as the top in domestic animation.
Although, because this anime is female-oriented, Li Yuntao has always been a famous person, but he hasn't really watched it yet. However, after seeing Cang Shuhong's interest, Li Yuntao also had to follow.
