Chapter XXXII Invitation to Publication
Ink Dye Comic Publishing House, editor Xiaoqing is supporting half of his face with his hands, looking at the black and white comics on the computer screen in every possible way.
"Although there is nothing wrong with catering to the market, nine of the ten new comics are of the Otherworldly Demon King type, and the market will also be aesthetically fatigued!"
Xiaoqing's brain is almost numb, and the new comics that have recently been released by Lianman.com are all royal themes, basically belonging to the type that can know the development of the plot of the next dozen or so words at a glance.
The colleague sitting opposite her also sighed and sighed: "This theme has really been painted badly, and the most popular book recently is still drawn from the perspective of the demon king, although it is innovative, but it is still too rigid in the subject matter." ”
"Anyway, animation adaptation companies don't take on this kind of theme very much, what can I do!"
Editor Xiaoqing killed another manuscript while talking and laughing, and turned to the next comic.
"Huh? Attack on Titan? Editor Xiaoqing sat up slightly straight, finally encountering a new type of work.
"Cunning rabbit? What about the author I haven't heard of, a new theme released by a newcomer? ”
Xiaoqing's expression was disappointed again, although it is a good thing that the newcomer author has the ambition to open up new markets, but without a fan base and skills, he is likely to die.
If some established authors want to open up new genres, the hope of success will be greater, so she does not have much hope for this work.
But in the spirit of professionalism, Xiaoqing still read down.
"Giants? Wall? Xiaoqing muttered slightly, and her curiosity was hooked a little.
"Huh? Is the Giant a villain? ”
As she spoke, Xiaoqing's expression gradually became serious.
This work has just released the third episode, and the reviews and responses are good so far.
"Dissolution Night... Something interesting! After reading the first two sentences, Xiaoqing has to admit that this work is very good.
"Whether it is character portrayal or world view, the author's shaping ability is very online, but the painting style is a little strange!"
Five minutes later, Xiaoqing finished reading the third episode, and the newcomers who were about to unite with the army from training were attacked by giants again on the city wall at this moment.
A fifty-meter-tall giant suddenly appeared outside the city wall, and the hot steam swept away, and inside the smoke, a shocking giant poked its head out of the wall!
Rumble!
The underside of the wall suddenly shattered, and the giant kicked a hole in the wall, and the small giant entered the wall, and the purgatory on earth five years ago reappeared!
"I'm going to take you... Nothing left... From this world... Expelled !! ”
With a resolute expression and a flash of anger in his eyes, Eren activated the three-dimensional maneuver and rushed towards the giant without fear.
"Yo! It's been five years! ”
End of this story.
After reading the latest release of the Xiaoqing editor, I felt a little unfinished at the moment.
"Awesome! This cunning rabbit teacher shouldn't be the vest opened by some big guy! ”
She decided that she wanted to sign this work in, and it must not fall into the hands of other publishing houses!
Thinking of this, Xiaoqing immediately sent an invitation to the author to sign a contract in the background of the website, and also attached his contact information.
She really wanted to talk to the author, because there are still many unexplained points in the current work, such as why the super-large giant appeared suddenly, and where did the giant come from?
For an excellent work, the hole dug must be filled.
Out of the editor's intuition, Xiaoqing felt that if the author could handle these details, then this work might have to be a god.
...
On the other side, Shen Feng, who was in class, suddenly received an official message from Lianman.com.
Ink Dye Comic Publishing House: "Your work "Attack on Titan" has been reviewed and has met the publication standards, please contact the editor Xiaoqing for follow-up matters. ”
"Ink Press?" Shen Feng recalled the information about this publishing house in his mind, and this publishing house in China is relatively good in the industry.
Although it is not as good as those top publishing houses, it also has several well-known representative works.
In any case, as long as it can be published, it is a good thing, and as long as you update it stably yourself, it is absolutely no problem to recover the capital.
After the morning class, Shen Feng was in no hurry to add the contact information of Xiaoqing's editor.
After waiting until the afternoon, he still did not receive publishing invitations from other publishing houses, so Shen Feng chose the Ink Dyeing Publishing House.
I sent a friend application to Xiaoqing's editor, and it didn't take long for it to be approved.
"Hello, is it Mr. Cunning?" After Xiaoqing applied through a friend, she always felt a little weird.
In the past, those rookie comic book authors, who didn't immediately add themselves when they received the information of the publishing contract, I didn't expect this author called the cunning rabbit to be so calm.
Could it really be the vest of some big guy? Otherwise, how can you be so calm.
"It's me, hello editor Xiaoqing." Shen Feng came up and said hello.
"Hello Mr. Cunning, I came today to talk to you about some follow-up matters of the work."
"May I ask if you created Attack on Titan independently?"
These are all questions that must be asked before signing, and in this world any copyright issue has to be so cautious.
"Yes, that's right." Shen Feng was able to understand and responded quickly.
"There are renewal requirements after signing the contract, and it cannot be broken for more than a month, you should know these terms!"
"Understood."
Shen Feng is not worried about the problem of breaking off, now the whole volume of comics is in his mind, as long as he wants to, it is no problem to take a moment to come out in one go.
However, because it is a serialized comic, it will release too many in one go, which will affect some follow-up sales problems, so he still chose to change it every week.
When he signs a contract, he will make additions as appropriate.
"I don't have any other questions, but I would like to ask, how did you conceive some of the plots in Attack on Titan?"
"For example, how did the giant appear, and why did the giant giant always appear next to the wall in the third episode?"
"Of course, you don't have to tell me in detail, you just need to tell me a rough idea."
Editor Xiaoqing asked these questions, mainly to understand the quality of this work in the future, and to know the answer earlier.
When Shen Feng saw these problems, he also understood that the other party was concerned about the future sales of his works.
"I already have the whole plot in mind, as for how did the giant appear? Guess why this work is called Attack on Titan? ”
Shen Feng sold a pass, why "Attack on Titan" in the previous life was so exciting in the early stage is because whenever the audience feels that the author can't go on, the author can always give the circle back on the verge of the plot collapse.
Although the follow-up ending is a bit unfinished, it is still an excellent work.
After all, when the system is refreshed in the mall, the discount only sells 2,000 points, which is already very cost-effective.
After receiving Shen Feng's reply, Xiaoqing sent the electronic contract template.
It didn't take long for Shen Feng to fill in the information.
"I'm only 21 years old! So young! ”
In the publishing house, Xiaoqing exclaimed, and only then did he confirm that the cunning rabbit should not be the vest of any big guy.
