Chapter Seventy-Three: From Light to Darkness

After all, the director of Wright still failed to get his wish, after all, such a thing as painting cannot be forced, and after the inducement and coercion have not worked, he has nothing to do, and he can't just catch a few of them back, which is too ugly and will damage the face of the Austrian royal family.

After a few harsh words and a few more hints, he left with the people.

Zhang Ang also waved his hand: "Everyone has worked hard for a day and a night, let's go back first, and if there are any arrangements after that, we will post them at the street entrance." ā€

The low-level artists left one after another, and after a while, only Zhang Ang and Adolf were left in the comic club again.

Zhang Ang was not worried at all that some of these people would be greedy, so he secretly went to the director Wright and drew cartoons for him. Everyone likes to watch "Jack the Great Swordsman", not because of its artistry, but because of how well it is painted, but because of its story! Unlike those old-fashioned knight novels and legendary novels that were popular on the mainland in the past, the story of "Jack of the Great Swordsman" is simpler, the rhythm is faster, and there are more unexpected developments.

The whole story has always been firmly preserved in Zhang Ang's mind, and only the night before he painted every day, he recounted some of them in a discussion with several group leaders, which was only enough to paint 3 or 4 pages. Therefore, no one knows the development of the story, even if they find the door and are accepted, they can only rely on their own nonsense. And what is drawn in this way will certainly not please the old readers.

The most important thing now is to break the game, let the comic club continue to operate, and produce more comic books, so that the entire story of "Jack the Great Swordsman" will be told and spread throughout Austria.

The Master Lermi approached and ordered the comic book club to close, which was a bit surprising but not unexpected. Zhang Ang is also prepared, after all, Vienna is the capital of art, with a strong artistic atmosphere, and the maintenance of artistry is far stricter than other places. Just as in the New Culture Movement in the previous life, the old scholars who wrote classical Chinese looked down on the new-style literati who wrote modern literature, and just as those traditional writers who wrote traditional literature looked down on the writers who wrote online texts, the authors of "Yangchun Baixue" always looked down on the authors of the "Lower Riba People".

But obviously, history tells us that in many cases, the things of the "lower riba people" are the most popular among the people, and if the price can be lower, this love will become more and more enthusiastic. Just like the current comic book, the works of the masters are often tens of thousands of gold, not at all ordinary people can afford it, even if you go to the art street to buy a bargain, it will cost almost 50 silver, buy a pair, hang it at home, in fact, it will not play a role, ordinary people have limited appreciation ability, and it is difficult to feel the artistry in it, and it is impossible to be influenced by the artistry, infected, and sublimate the feelings or something.

But comic books are different, although they are still relatively expensive, but they are still within the acceptable range, and if you grit your teeth, it is not impossible to buy. Moreover, the comic book is very cost-effective, 35 silver can buy a comic book of nearly 20 pages, composed of 80 pictures, far better than 50 silver to buy a simple oil painting. What's more important is its story, simple and easy to understand, novel and exciting, it is a rare entertainment product in this era, if you read it seriously, often a comic book can pass the whole boring afternoon, and you can watch it repeatedly, change it with others, discuss the plot with friends, etc., the ability to kill time is very strong, and it is very cost-effective.

Comics, from the very beginning, were not positioned as art, or even had nothing to do with art, but were just an entertainment product. Even in Zhang Ang's previous life, in the eyes of most people, those cartoons were just a kind of plaything for children to pass the time, similar to watching TV and playing games. After all, no manga has ever been treated as a work of art and exhibited in major galleries. And the cartoonists themselves have nothing to do with those oil painters and Chinese painters, they are completely two kinds of people.

And Zhang Ang asked a group of low-level painters to put up big-character posters on the street before, waving their flags and shouting, the purpose is not to let the comics receive the affirmation of the artists, not to let the comics be accepted by everyone as a work of art, nor to distinguish between right and wrong with the master of Lermi. It is to expand the influence of comics! Through debates, through those questions, let the people think, so that comics have a rough position in their hearts! Under that art, the positioning of entertainment commodities that kill time! Only with such a positioning can it not be regarded so high and feared. It will appear more approachable and easier to reach out to thousands of households.

Of course, although we initially have the masses and the foundation, the problem of production still has to be solved.

It's just that it can't be as upright as it used to be. After all, a bright comic club is open here, anyone can come to the door, the painting master can come to shut down, and the patrol can also come to put a seal, which is really not conducive to the subsequent war of public opinion. It's a good idea to be in the dark.

"What are we going to do next?" Adolf interrupted the thoughts you had given, "Do you still want to put up that 'big-character poster' on the street?"

"Of course not, next, let's reopen the comic club!" Zhang Ang replied: "However, we must change from light to darkness!

"What is that?" Adolf visibly puzzled.

"It's very simple, break it down and make the whole art street our comic club!" Zhang Ang replied.

......

The next day, word of mouth, an undercurrent began to flow through Art Street.

There were no notices, and countless small groups were organized and assembled in every hostel, every house, every room.

Stacks of drawing paper, bundles of brushes, boxes of paints were sent out, sample drafts, and requests were distributed to all the groups.

On the long art street, there are more than ninety percent fewer people setting up stalls, and the entire cartoonist seems to be empty, without the vitality of the past.

But every room is busy.

In the Chase shop, a group of people sat on the ground, put the drawing paper on the bed, and began to paint.

In the separate room, several people sorted out the drawing papers, put them into a book, and were busy binding.

At the door of the inn, a box was handed over, and a man nodded, took the box, and walked out.

In the lively restaurant, a guy wearing a cloak and covering his appearance sneakily pulled a young man into the corner of the wall, opened the corner of the box, and revealed the picture books inside.

"Hey, the fifth volume of "Great Swordsman Jack", or? original price, 35!"
