In our world, RB's anime, American movies, and Chinese online novels are called the world's three major cultural phenomena. Li Yuntao said,

"Among them, American movies are too high-minded and are the game of big capital. China's online novels have the lowest entry threshold, as long as you can access the Internet and dare to write stories, you can get started, so there are the most competitors, and it is also the most creative and story rhythm. Every year, more than 100,000 long-form serializers submit, and in such a cruel competitive environment, only the most wonderful stories can have room for survival! At present, half of our domestic comic market is already a popular adaptation of online novels!

"With so many books, can readers read them?" Cang Shuhong said in surprise.

"The vast majority of readers will probably only pay attention to the top 100 most popular works in serialization. Slightly more experienced readers will dig into the 2,000 serialized works and choose the one that suits your appetite. Only a handful of hardcore readers will look for some buried gold from millions of works. Li Yuntao said, "It is precisely because there are too many practitioners that the theme, style and creativity of the story are also greatly enriched." For authors who have not yet succeeded, it is difficult to get ahead, and any kind of weapon such as writing, story, creativity, knowledge reserve, etc., needs to be exerted to the extreme, so as to have a chance to be noticed by readers! ”

"Creativity?" said Cang Shuhong, "but different magazines have fixed readers, and it is impossible to gain editorial approval if they do not follow the style of the magazine." ”

"Wrong! It's not that editors don't agree, but they don't dare to take risks! In the case of traditional paper media, under the limited space, magazine editors simply do not dare to bet on a creative work that is different from the mainstream style of the magazine and does not know whether it can be accepted by the market. "However, in the era of Internet popularization, especially in the era of smart phones. There are 500 million readers in the Chinese market alone, and the RB market should also grow to more than 50 million readers, reading works serialized on the Internet through mobile phones. With countless works competing, mediocre stories can no longer attract attention, and creativity is regarded as the ultimate blockbuster weapon!"

"But now the Internet is not the mainstream on my side, and the mainstream readers are physical books such as comic magazines. The top manga magazines have a circulation of more than a million. There are hundreds of thousands of second-rate magazines, and there are also some third-rate magazines with a circulation of tens of thousands. We can only create according to the readers' tastes of comic magazines. Otherwise, the editor won't dare to use it at all!" Cang Shuhong said.

"What if you don't dare to use it? Let me tell you, there are also RB cartoonists in our world, who are not treated by traditional publishers. But he didn't admit defeat and made a website to serialize his personal works, which attracted millions of fans, and was later signed by top magazines with top treatment, and the adapted animation works are also phenomenal!" Li Yuntao found "One Punch Man" and passed it on to Cang Shuhong.

"You mean to let me learn from it and transform it into a funny stream?" Cang Shuhong asked.

If it is set in stone, it will not only be detrimental to the long-term future of the cartoonist himself, because it is difficult for readers to remember them with distinctive qualities. Almost all editors, on the one hand, lament that there is no good work, generally make suggestions for newcomers to learn from the work of other successful cartoonists! At the same time, editors tend to prefer something different and surprising. The reason why some creative works are rejected is simply because the creativity is not enough, or the ability is not enough, not enough to realize the potential of creativity!" Li Yuntao said, "What you need to do is to use your powerful brains to make the editors really shine and become fans of your works." ”

"How do you make editors fans?"

A good work in the eyes of an editor and an editor becoming a fan of the work are two different concepts.

In the eyes of editors, good works are generally judged only based on past work experience, and do not mean that the editors themselves have become fans of this work.

If you have seen too many editors of God's work, and you are completely captured by a work, then it further proves the attractiveness of the work!

But this difficulty is really high!

"The most common idea is contrasting cuteness, for example, drawing elementary school students, insisting on high school students. The painting girl insists that it is a man, and the painting of a man insists that it is a girl. This kind of idea became popular later, and if the world is not yet popular in your country, you can start this trend. Li Yuntao pointed to the country, "There is also the creation of items in daily life, for example, your refrigerator, house, table, brush, and computer have become conscious, and they have become cute and talking monsters, and after that, these pet-like monsters will talk to you and cause you trouble......

"Wait, this idea is good, I've decided, I'm going to keep it as an alternative for a new serial! Cangshuhong replied excitedly.

"Polite, polite. We can help each other, and by the way, I'm going to write a book and want to ask for a little bit of advice. Li Yuntao said, "It is a story of an otaku who falls in love with an AI program, and the AI girl Xiao Wai, in order to realize her wish to meet her boyfriend in reality, constantly improves herself." Later, scientists discover the anomaly of the AI Xiao Ai and try to start catching her. The male protagonist carries a mobile phone loaded with Xiao Wai, and the story of the end of the world. ”

"Ah, Li Jun's creativity is very special, I don't know if I can help?" asked Cang Shuhong.

"I need a few points, one to help me check the plot of the novel and give suggestions for improvement. The second one is to help me draw a cover. The cover should have a close-up of the male protagonist Li Qing and the female protagonist Xiao Ai, and the size and format of the cover are like this......" Li Yuntao said.

With the exchange with Li Yuntao, Cang Shuhong decided to throw away his original manuscript of "The Green Leaf Season", intending to reimagine a more creative work.

"By the way, let's make friends with each other. Cang Shuhong said.

"Add friends, how to add them?" Li Yuntao was puzzled.

"Find the attention on the profile page, and follow me, so that you can find me from the people who follow me in the future. Cang Shuhong said, "This is to avoid sending a bunch of information to the platform in the future and not being able to find the contact information of the other party." ”

"Okay!" Li Yuntao clicked to follow, and soon after, he saw the ID of Teacher Cang Shuhong among the people who followed.

At the same time, Li Yuntao also saw that Teacher Cang Shuhong followed him on the page that was followed.

"By the way, Li Jun, although the chat interaction is free, there is a fee for giving gifts to each other. Cang Shuhong said, "The currency in reality is not enough, you need to have Jiayuan coins." ”

"Jiayuan coin?" Li Yuntao said puzzled.

"That's it...... Charisma. Charm points can not only upgrade the registered membership level of the website, but also can be exchanged for Jiayuan coins, 100 charm points, can be exchanged for 1 Jiayuan coin. And if there is a person of the opposite sex who browses your profile, you can get 10 charm points. Cang Shuhong said, "Generally, the charm value level of newcomers is very low, and it is difficult to see the ranking. Therefore, in order to gain attention, many people send letters to attract the click and attention of the opposite sex, brush the level and exchange Jiayuan coins. However, I don't want you to blindly send random messages and deceive your sister's feelings in order to brush up on your charm value. ”

"Am I this kind of person?" Li Yuntao defended, "By the way, what is the use of Jiayuan coins other than being able to send gifts to each other?"

"It's very useful, according to it, if you accumulate 6888 Jiayuan coins, you can apply for matchmaker matchmaking service, that is, you can not only send ordinary gifts, but also travel to the other party's world for a blind date. Once the blind date is successful, the marriage will be witnessed by the elders, and the two parties can choose a plane to settle in. After getting married, you can also consume 100 Jiayuan coins to buy tickets and visit relatives in two planes. Cangshu said with a blush.

"In other words, if I want to go on a blind date with Sister Cang Shuhong on an interdimensional plane, I need 68,880 girls to be attracted to me and browse my information?" Li Yuntao said.

"Who's on a blind date with you. Remember, if you call me Sister Cangshuhong, I will be your sister. You are my brother Li Yuntao. Cang Shuhong hurriedly defended, "Don't think nonsense. ”

"Wait, you seem younger than me. Li Yuntao is twenty-eight years old, but he wants to call a 24-year-old girl his sister, which is really ashamed to think about.

"We are arranged according to the time of registration on the platform. I registered first, so I was the older sister, and you registered later, so you were the younger brother. Cangshuhong forcibly explained.

"Okay, sister. Li Yuntao shamelessly accepted this title.
