Chapter 160: A pioneering work that stands out from the crowd!
All in all, after Jiang Xue started painting this "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in full accordance with the storyboard and detailed outline given by Xu Qingru, she has been completely attracted by such a pioneering work of "new martial arts" with a new setting.
At the same time, she can also show the fight scenes she is best at painting in this martial arts work!
The battle scene of "Madoka Magical Girl" is still too abstract and fantastical, although Jiang Xue is also very cool to draw, but I have to say that there are still a lot of private goods mixed with Xu Qingru.
But this time, Xu Qingru really completely handed over the details of the battle to Jiang Xue to draw, and her detailed outline would only give the results of the battle and the direction of the plot.
Then they submitted this collaborative work to the most popular martial arts comic magazine in the parallel world, "Ancient Legends. Martial Arts.
The draft went very smoothly, and the fame of Jiang Xue and Xu Qingru also played a huge role, especially Jiang Xue, she is a recognized genius in the comic industry, and as the original artist of "Madoka Magical Girl", she also added a dazzling stroke to her resume.
Of course, the excellent quality of its own work is the fundamental reason why it has the opportunity to be serialized.
The first thing to appreciate the opening content of this work is "The Legend of the Ancient World. Xing Feng, the editor-in-chief of "Martial Arts", who is responsible for the classification of "Ancient Martial Arts".
That's right, the martial arts-themed comics in this world, in addition to "ancient martial arts", also have "modern martial arts", and even "science fiction martial arts", which are the kind of works that practice martial arts to gallop in space, which can be compared to the "ancient martial arts mecha" classification of the earth world.
Xing Feng really didn't pay attention to the fact that this "Legend of the Condor Heroes" was the work of Xu Qingru in charge of the original work and Jiang Xue in charge of painting, he just reviewed it as an ordinary martial arts comic, but in this review, he himself fell into it!
The main content of the opening chapter of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is-
At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, after Zhongliang who lived in seclusion in Niujia Village on the outskirts of Lin'an, Guo Xiaotian and Yang Tiexin's family suffered a catastrophe and were killed by the Southern Song Dynasty government in collusion with Wanyan Honglie, the prince of Jin.
When the bad news came, Guo and Yang's friend Quanzhen Sect Taoist Qiu was furious and hunted down the murderers of Guo and Yang. He was worried about his lost friends and family, and ran around in the Lin'an area to find out to no avail. Then because he was deceived by the traitor Duan Tiande, he clashed with the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan in Jiaxing, and both were defeated.
Qiu Chuji and the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan saw through the conspiracy of the traitors, and released the soldiers to make peace, but the competition did not distinguish the winner or loser. Qiu Chuji met with the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan to find people together, and he went to rescue Yang Tiexin's wife Bao Xiweak, and the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan went to rescue Guo Xiaotian's wife Li Ping, and each raised the children of the two families to be adults, and reunited in Jiaxing after 18 years, and the descendants of Guo Yang competed on behalf of the winners. The seven strange righteousness of Jiangnan Bo Yuntian promised with emotion.
After her husband was killed, Guo's wife Li Ping was first held hostage by Duan Tiande, an officer of the Southern Song Dynasty, and then captured by the Jin soldiers, drifted all the way to the Mongolian desert, and gave birth to a son after ten months of pregnancy. Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Guo Jing is already six years old, and this year he was appreciated by the Mongol Khan Temujin for sacrificing his life to protect the steppe hero Jebe, and was taken back to the military camp by Temujin.
The Seven Monsters of Jiangnan also visited Li Ping's mother and son to Mongolia, and finally found Guo Jing by chance, and six years of hard work were paid in one day.
Ten years later, Guo Jing has grown into a stout young man, although he is talented and dull, but due to the strict supervision of the six monsters, coupled with his own hard work, and then because of the Quanzhen Sect to teach Ma Yu to teach Xuanmen internal skills, martial arts have been completed. In the past ten years, Temujin conquered the east and west, finally unified the desert, and was revered as "Genghis Khan". Guo Jing was recruited by Genghis Khan as the "Golden Sword Horse" because of his military exploits.
Xing Feng looked at it and felt that this "ancient martial arts" comic was very powerful in the creation of characters!
Whether it is Guo and Yang at the beginning or Qiu Chuji at the back, the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan are all vividly shaped, not to mention the wonderful fight between Qiu Chuji and the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan!
One of the most important highlights of martial arts comics is fighting, and comic authors who can draw wonderful fighting pictures are truly based in the field of martial arts comics!
Jiang Xue, who is extremely talented, really cashed in on her talent this time!
Xing Feng saw the wonderful fight between the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan and the Black Wind Shuangsha, what "Bronze Corpse" Chen Xuanfeng, "Iron Corpse" Mei Chaofeng, Jiuyin White Bone Claw, Heart-Urging Palm, "Jiuyin True Scripture", ...... It just made him stunning!
These incomparably innovative settings, which appeared for the first time in martial arts comics, directly opened his eyes!
Especially Mei Chaofeng practiced "Nine Yin White Bone Claws" with a corpse, grabbing five blood holes on his head, this weird and cruel practice method made him dumbfounded!
The main thing is that the picture of this comic really has a sense of sharpness like a movie special effects blockbuster, which simply makes him immersive!
He was completely blown away!
If Jin Yong's original work can convey 20% of the reader's feelings, then Xu Qingru and Jiang Xue will completely show Jin Yong in comics, which can give readers several times a more intuitive feeling!
After Xing Feng finally noticed that this work was a collaboration between Xu Qingru and Jiang Xue, he suddenly realized.
Should I say that they are the genius creators who created the masterpiece "Madoka Magical Girl" together, I didn't expect them to do such a big job quietly!
Xing Feng decisively submitted this "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which made him deeply attracted, to the work serialization meeting.
Then at the meeting, the editors would only do a quick review of many works to be discussed, but all the editors present continued to focus on it for a long time when reviewing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!
Not a single one spoke!
In normal times, so much time has passed, and the serialization meeting has long been over, and the results of determining which works will be newly serialized and which works will be completed or cut in half should have come out a long time ago, but the emergence of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has completely delayed the whole process!
This can only be said that the attraction of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is too great!
In a sense, as Jin Yong's third work, which is also his famous work, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", is the leader of the new school of martial arts works, and it appears in this world that is still traditional and ancient martial arts, and its charm is absolutely amazing!
If it is placed in this world, it is the pioneering work!
The editor-in-chief who presided over this serial meeting, his name was Ding Yixiang, and when he saw the fierce battle between the Black Wind and the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan in one breath, his whole breath became short!
This fight screen is so exciting, the characters in it seem to be out of the comics, appearing in the real world vividly, in addition to the characters, there is also the background that fits the war very well, it simply allows readers to fully enter the comic world, as if watching a blockbuster movie up close!
That's what it's like to be there!
Ding Yixiang, the editor-in-chief, he himself likes the mainstream royal martial arts works, and he always believes that the martial arts comics that can really become gods are definitely royal comics, unlike the kind of evil works that go off the rails, often high and low, and the staying power is not good.
This "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is very much in line with his mind, because this is a very orthodox royal work, and even the setting of Guo Jing, the protagonist, makes him look very pleasing to the eye, so he will undoubtedly give this work the view of "passing and serializing".
And after Xing Feng finished reading all the content of this opening manuscript, what he wanted to do most now was to urge those two genius creators to urge the draft, this innovative martial arts work is really exciting!
At the end of the manuscript, Hua Zheng, who seems to be the heroine, has already appeared, the daughter of Genghis Khan, the pearl of the grassland, and Guo Jing are childhood sweethearts, and the friendship with the protagonist Guo Jing is also very deep, and Guo Jing has also become a "golden knife horse", and I don't know what the future development will be?
I really want to see the follow-up!
At the serialization meeting, he couldn't help but look at the background of the whole comic, and he found that this martial arts comic, even if the story is placed in the Southern Song Dynasty, the architectural style, the clothing of the characters, and the customs and folklore of the grassland are completely in line with historical facts, which is too detailed!
Just one word, exquisite!
No wonder after reading all the content of this separate manuscript, he subconsciously felt that such a story really happened in the Southern Song Dynasty in history!
This kind of profound skill that seamlessly embeds martial arts into history is also too powerful!
You must know that many martial arts cartoonists today, most of them like to directly set aside a dynasty that does not exist, even if they choose a dynasty in history, they will not let the protagonist have a relationship with celebrities, but this comic directly allows Guo Jing to connect with characters like Genghis Khan, which is completely the first of its kind!
Not to mention, most martial arts cartoonists, in terms of background research, simply can't conform to historical facts like this, for example, there is a martial arts cartoon set in the Spring and Autumn Period, its name is "Spring and Autumn Journey of the Sword", which is quite famous and sells very well.
But although it is the background of the Spring and Autumn Period, the dress of the characters in it is clearly the ancient costume style of the Ming Dynasty, but the readers are not too harsh and still watch it with relish......
Many martial arts comic authors are like this, even if they draw "ancient martial arts", they will not deliberately study the evidence or the like, after all, it is just an entertainment work for the reader's pastime, so why pay attention to it?
Xu Qingru is different, she has a "material world" to assist, since she can perfectly restore the details of ancient times, why not show it in the comics?
In this way, it naturally makes this "Legend of the Condor Heroes" stand out even more!
At this time, at the serial meeting, the editors had almost finished reviewing the manuscript, and the editor-in-chief, Ding Yixiang, had a smile on his face, and he directly asked everyone to say what they thought of the work.
As a result, all the editors said yes, and the comments were all "completely approved and serialized"!
The above is "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the most popular martial arts-themed comic magazine "Legend of the Ancient Times. Martial Arts" on the whole process of serialization.
The magazine also invested a lot of publicity resources in this work that they had high hopes for, and of course it also emphasized that it is another masterpiece by Xu Qingru and Jiang Xue, following "Madoka Magical Girl"!
However, the interesting thing is that after the news that Xu Qingru and Jiang Xue collaborated on the royal martial arts-themed comics came out, the public's reaction was simply carved out of the same mold as the previous cooperation between Teacher Mengguo and Teacher Xu Promise in the hot-blooded juvenile comics.
After all, they had collaborated on a very evil and subversive work like "Madoka Magical Girl" before, so how could they turn around and paint the most volatile martial arts theme on the market?
Isn't this the classic way of playing up the short and avoiding the strong one?
However, the fans of Teacher Xu began to be angry again, and they even thought that Xu Qingru was a typical cautious eye!
Didn't they just explain the fact that Xu Qingru was not good at the royal theme at all when the opening chapter of "The Spirit of the Halberd" was a great success, that is!
As a result, I didn't expect that after nearly a month of serialization in "The Spirit of the Halberd", Xu Qingru's new work also came out, and it was actually a mainstream royal theme!
This kind of operation, of course, makes the fans of Teacher Xu feel that they are being targeted, and among these fans, there are many little sunspots who are Qingru and like to label her as an "Internet celebrity high school student".
These little blacks haven't even seen the ontology of the work "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but they have only made up all kinds of brains according to its title and the general introduction of the publicity in the magazine, and at the same time, they have to make a wave of blackouts.
has the name of this work directly hacked, it seems particularly cliché and boring, and the name "XX Heroes" is too insincere, it must be a work used to cheat the fandom for money!
There are even violent theories that directly take the gender of the creator to talk about things: "Martial arts is a man's fairy tale!" Female creators really don't deserve to touch the theme of porcelain, their works are often too small, and the martial arts theme will only be made into romance works by them, and there is no family and country feeling at all, so I can be sure that this "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is definitely not good at portraying any hero! ”
"One thing to say, looking at the popular martial arts comics that have been serialized on the market for more than five years, all of them are male cartoonists, Xu Qingru is an Internet celebrity high school student, rashly choosing the theme of martial arts, it's just a mess, she is okay with a children's theme like a magical girl, and she is really too ignorant of martial arts works!"
"As a fan of Teacher Promise, if Teacher Promise also challenges the martial arts theme, then I am not optimistic, and the current "Spirit of the Halberd" is a delicacy that is very suitable for them, Xu Qingru will not think that she will also forcibly engage in a mainstream royal theme, which can prove something, it will only backfire and be embarrassing!"
It was in such a disturbing situation that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" started serialization!
