Chapter 565: The pinnacle of Hong Kong Manga

"Mr. Joe." A man about the same age as Qiao Feng stood at the desk a little stiffly and said hello.

"Come, sit down." Qiao Feng smiled and got up and greeted.

After the man sat down a little nervously, Qiao Feng didn't say anything else, and went straight to the point and asked, "I don't know what you're going to do next, Ma Zai?"

This Ma Tsai does not mean the younger brother, but this person's surname is Ma, and according to the name of Hong Kong, it is naturally Ma Tsai.

Ma Tsai's name is Ma Rongcheng, and everyone who reads comics knows that Ma Tsai is a famous generation of comic masters in Hong Kong in recent years.

But this master is not very old, only one year older than Qiao Feng.

Ma Rongcheng, born in Hong Kong in 1961, has loved painting since he was a child. In short, Ma Rongcheng's education level is not good, except for his love of painting, according to himself, he has no other strengths..

He didn't read many books, and he didn't have very orthodox art training, so it was very difficult to become a cartoonist, but fortunately, he has been studying diligently, and he has not gone astray since then, and soon joined "Good News" and began to serialize his own works. When he first started in the industry, he only drew some essays, and his works were mainly based on imitating the style of famous cartoonists of the time.

In 1982, he joined the then famous Yulang Group Publishing Co., Ltd. and began to compile and illustrate his early masterpiece "Chinese Heroes".

Although Huang Yulang created classics such as Dragon Tiger Gate, there has always been a rumor in the Hong Kong comic industry that Huang Yulang is not a good painter, but a good businessman.

This is a satire of Huang Yulang's painting workmanship, but it also proves Huang Yulang's business acumen.

After Yulang International got on the right track, Huang Yulang let go of his identity as an author, and more often appeared as a comic industry boss.

Ma Rongcheng's ability to paint Chinese heroes is absolutely inseparable from Huang Yulang's support, and the original "Chinese Heroes" was actually deliberately conceived by Huang Yulang according to Ma Rongcheng's creative conditions and personal style. And Ma Rongcheng finally lived up to the trust and made "Chinese Heroes" shine in the art world.

In 1983, the work became the best-selling comic book in Hong Kong, and in addition to its successful success, Ma Wing-shing also succeeded in establishing a milestone in the local new comic style, which combines realism with delicate brushstrokes and cinematic expression. It had a profound influence on the production of Hong Kong comics in the future.

As the chief writer of the Chinese hero, Ma Rongcheng has also become a new rich man with an annual salary of one million, which is unique in the Hong Kong comic industry.

Chinese heroes are very famous, but Qiao Feng's more understanding of Ma Rongcheng stems from the fact that he is the author of Fengyun.

The original time and space Zheng Yijian, starring Aaron Kwok dominates the world, not to mention, it is a classic of fantasy martial arts of the era.

Even TV series and anime, animation is derived from Fengyun I don't know how much it has been derived.

In the original time and space, He Rundong's instant noodle head Qiao Feng complained for I don't know how many years.

And Qiao Feng knew Fengyun for the first time, and he knew that Ma Rongcheng was still from the very young Fengyun pirated comics.

That is the black and white pirated version of "Fengyun" that is circulated in the market, which is also the initial shock that Hong Kong comics brought to Qiao Feng.

When he was a child, Qiao Feng had a natural resistance to the adult style of Hong Kong comics (in his opinion, when he was a child, the Hong Kong comics who often ** burst clothes represented xxx), but by chance, the next classmate borrowed him a black and white version of "Fengyun", I remember that it was the fourth episode of the Far Away Publishing House, which is about Nie Feng's discovery of the adultery between Bu Jingyun and their sister-in-law Kong Ci.

As a result, the first showdown of Fengyun was triggered.

Qiao Feng, who was still a primary school student at that time, was completely shocked by this black-and-white version of "Fengyun", the first life-and-death duel between Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun was different from the later hard work and magnification moves, but the mutual dismantling between Fengshen Leg and Pai Yun Palm. Even if you don't look at the narration text that has been repeated many times, Qiao Feng can completely see from the picture that "Fengshen's legs are incomparably powerful in long-range attacks, and the hand-to-hand grappling is restrained by the author's setting."

It was really a visual feast, Qiao Feng only watched this fight, and he really understood what "martial arts comics" were. At the same time, because I watched it endlessly, I felt that the plot was more confusing and fascinating, and the more I wanted people to finish this comic as soon as possible.

What "are the golden scales a thing in the pool, and they will turn into dragons when they encounter a storm" has completely become a famous sentence of mystery and mystery, hanging on the mouths of Qiao Feng and the boys in the same class who have seen it all day long.

At that time, Qiao Feng used almost all his pocket money to buy these black and white pirated copies of "Fengyun", and there were still more than a dozen copies of the first part of "Fengyun" in his home before he crossed. In Qiao Feng's opinion, the first part of "Fengyun" is definitely the pinnacle of Hong Kong comics, and there is no one.

And the encounter of a person when he is young often becomes the most beautiful encounter in his life, because at the beginning of the contact with Hong Kong comics, what he saw was the black and white pirated version of the market, so until he crossed over, Qiao Feng still thought that the black and white version of Hong Kong comics was better than color, and the depth and momentum of the characters were very in place. On the contrary, the color manuscript is a snake to add. (Of course, here is that Qiao Feng knows that Hong Kong comics are originally in color, and piracy is printed in black and white in order to save costs.) )

In terms of picture expression alone, Fengyunyi's painting work is unparalleled. At that time, Ma Rongcheng could really be called a soul painter, and Fengyi's characters were really "acting"!

I still remember that at that time, Bu Jingyun's expression was changeable, sometimes crazy and impulsive, sometimes gloomy owl and tyrant, but sad and dull, and even when he was imprisoned in Lingyun Cave, his frightened face in the dark can be seen as a thriller comic.

I still remember the figure when Bu Jingyun led the Blood Dark Sky to destroy the Liancheng Walled City, and sat quietly on the bronze bull with his hands on his chin, followed by his cloak and ignoring the provocation of Guan Qi at the head of the Walled City, and walked straight to his slave Blood Dark Sky, it was a half-overlooking picture, Bu Jingyun was the core of the whole picture, and Guan Qi and the Blood Dark Sky were all in sight. It's a cinematic storyboard, the picture at that time was full of tension, and Lao Ma even used a lot of brushes (possibly something similar to brushstrokes) to paint, compared with the facial paralysis and zombie action in the third part of Fengyun, it was more than ten streets in seconds.

In the second and third "Fengyun", Qiao Feng likes the male protagonist Nie Feng and gradually becomes a passerby, and Qiao Feng has been very dissatisfied since the later part of the first part. But the whole story plot is good, and Qiao Feng still insists on receiving books constantly. In the second part, it became even more intensified, and Nie Feng was directly hidden for a long time. Qiao Feng was really angry about this, so he abandoned the book. In fact, it is not possible to give it up, at that time, Qiao Feng read comics and bought pirated copies directly, he didn't have much pocket money, and the books were expensive to death. The later plots were all made up online after I went to college.

But in any case, in Qiao Feng's opinion, the first part of "Fengyun" is definitely the pinnacle of undoubted Hong Kong comics, and there is no one.

"Mr. Qiao, Mr. Huang has an accident now, he values me so much, how can I be embarrassed to have other plans behind his back now."
