My Cartoonist Guide

Some people are dissatisfied with him, he may not care, even if that person contacts Uematsuno, Uematsuno may not answer.

But Shen Xin is not the same, whether it is single-line sales or comic book rankings, he and Uematsuno are at the same level. If you leave a message, Uematsuno will take it seriously.

Of course, there is also the possibility that Shen Xin will not ask Uematsuno, but there is always a risk.

It's not that he can't live, he doesn't need to take this risk.

There may be a day of demolition in the future, but as long as the strength is strong enough, even if it is demolition, it will not be a big deal.

There is even a possibility that if his work is good enough, Uematsuno will help him lie.

The premise is works.

Wei Mao drew the manuscript, but he was thinking about other things.

"Ms. Wei, the nae has been revised, take time to revise the follow-up nae." An elderly person over 6 years old handed the revised nae to Wei Mao.

Wei Mao turned around and took the nae. Since it was a printed version, even if the nae was modified, he could not use it directly.

With the development of technology, he no longer needs to use the transcribing desk. In fact, he hasn't used it much, but directly scans the nae and uses sai to operate it.

The red pencil line will tick the places that need to be modified, and some of the divisions that need to be merged are also specially marked.

For Wei Mao, this has greatly improved the quality of work.

"Teacher Lu, can you help me read the manuscript?" Fei Xu saw that the old man was about to take off his glasses, and immediately handed his nae up.

"you?"

The old man stared at Fei Xu for a moment, looked at him for four or five seconds, and took Nae.

Fei Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

The old man's name was Lu Yiming. Before he retired, he worked as an editor for 35 years. In his words, he has read more manuscripts than these newcomers have touched on books.

Fan Yinmo deliberately hired several retired old editors and asked them to check the works of the company's cartoonists. Lu Yiming is one of them.

Not all cartoonists who have signed contracts with Fan Yinmo have the qualifications of exclusive editors, but they must have a certain reputation and have not brought a certain amount of revenue to the company before they can be assigned to editors. This is also because the cartoonists in his hand mainly contribute to the second-line stations, and the network station will not assign experienced editors to the cartoonists. In order to ensure the quality of the comics, the copyrights of the comics can be sold, and Fan Yinmo has also lost his blood. .

The animation copyright of Warm House has been sold, and the copyright of film and television dramas has entered the final stage of discussion. Fan Yinmo made a fortune, but these gains had nothing to do with Wei Mao.

As for Fei Xu, his comics had just been serialized. Whether he can be assigned to his own editor depends on his grades. Therefore, after learning that Lu Yiming had come, he ran over and wanted to try his luck.

The first few words of the manga are very important. If there is a chance to carve it, he would definitely not let it go.

Wei Mao took Nae, walked to the scanner, and scanned Nae page by page into pictures. While scanning, he was also flipping through the nae, and saw that the entire nae was strung nearly 1 grid, and his brows frowned slightly.

As a cartoonist, Wei Mao hates being deleted by others. This feeling is similar to not being recognized, so he couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Lu, how can you delete so many storyboards with this sentence?"

"I thought you didn't ask? The content is babble, not concise enough. Either delete the content of these divisions, or extract the main plot and add it to other sub-scopes." Lu Yiming held a red pencil and looked down at Fei Xu. Nae handed over.

Fei Xuzheng felt sorry for Lu Yiming's massive alteration of his nae. Hearing Wei Mao's questioning, he also felt resentment. "The teacher is now the hottest cartoonist in the country. It is impossible to make so many mistakes in his creation."

"Huh, the hottest?" Lu Yiming sneered without looking up. "It's OK to just close the door. It's embarrassing to be in the circle."

"Then teacher, who is the hottest cartoonist?" Fei Xu asked bitterly.

"Are you really ignorant, or pretending to be stupid?" Lu Yiming took off his glasses and stared at Fei Xu, "If you think that the comics circle is just around you, just pretend that I am not. But you have to know that China is also good, and it is also in District 11. Well, the comics created are all commercial comics, and income is the most important indicator of the performance of a comic. If the studio does not count the copyright income, the income of a single line of others is more than the income of the studio for a month. Strong eager to win, it doesn't matter which cartoonist is popular, draw your own cartoons and get results first."

"Teacher Lu, don't forget that the studio also has Tutors of Tian Xia Wu Yao and Demon King? These two comics are not vegetarian." Fei Xu retorted.

"These two are good comics. When the volumes of these two comics are added together, there should be 130,000 copies. If your number is not bad, you should know that the difference between 130,000 and 50,000 is really not an order of magnitude. I I have been an editor for 35 years, and I rarely see comics with more than 10,000 volumes in Huaxia and Section 11. However, comics with an average volume of 600,000 to 700,000 volumes can still be seen often. You may not like a certain one. Comics, after all, everyone’s habits are different, but as a manga artist, you have to recognize the performance of a manga, even if you hate it."

"Hey, s is not as good as the warm and full house Juanjun." Fei Xu changed the subject.

Lu Yiming also put his glasses away this time, and looked up at Fei Xu, "I just endured it when I heard you just now. I didn't expect you to compare the two comics again. I will ask you, you know that s was serialized back then. The scene?"

Seeing Lu Yiming's serious expression, Fei Xu was shocked and shook his head quickly. How could he know the scene when he was less than 1 year old at that time.

"It's a coincidence, I don't know." Lu Yiming suddenly smiled.

This time even Wei Mao looked surprised, "Don't you know?"

Wei Mao was only twelve or thirteen years old when s was serialized, and he hadn't read this comic when it was first serialized.

"Yes. This comic is serialized in the second-tier magazine nerld. Because the magazine is a physical entity, there is too much inventory, and the magazine must lose money. In order to ensure the profit of the magazine, the sales of second-tier magazines are usually not as large as the first-tier magazines. The target audience is also mainly local readers, and many bookstores in other places do not sell it. I have purchased nerld. This magazine is usually only sold in large bookstores like Jiman, and the number is not too much. Because Hongchuan’s comic magazines are too large. Many, fierce competition, a little carelessness, it is easy to leave inventory, want to buy nerld, sometimes it takes luck.

"Now that online comics are popular, readers have more choices. They don't want to buy them as soon as they are sold separately, but as long as they want to read them, they can still see them. In some places, you can't find them except by mail. In the second way to buy books, considering the postage, the price you get is a few yuan more than the bookstore. At that time, even the piracy was not developed, and many people did not have the opportunity to see this comic. How high can you sell it? "

"However, if the comics are really so good, it is impossible for the magazine to not publish animations, right? As long as the animations are produced, the sales of the comics will naturally increase." Fei Xu asked.

"The problem lies in the animation of s. Because the animation was not well discussed, Mr. Shen cut s in the middle. The animation later came out, and it was also after s was cut in the middle."

"Half-cut?" Fei Xu was taken aback. "Teacher, are you wrong? It should be the magazine, how can a cartoonist cut comics?"

Cartoonists take the initiative to cut the comics? This kind of thing is unheard of.

Doesn't Shen Zheng want to make money anymore?

"I seem to know a little about this, and it seems to be related to the editor in charge of Mr. Shen. Because the magazine dismissed the editor in charge of Mr. Shen on an unreasonable charge, he was cut in the waist when he was angry." Wei Mao rubbed his chin. .

"Teacher, do you know?" Fei Xu asked quickly.

"How am I going to change after s? At that time, there was a lot of discussion about the renewal of s, so I checked the reason." Wei Mao explained.

"Web comics changed the reader's style, but it also eliminated the situation that readers were unable to purchase and comics due to objective reasons. Compared with the two comics, the environment of s was worse. Although it was renewed later, it was a year later. , And more importantly, because Duoman is a web comics platform, and s uses a subscription model, in order to ensure the subscription volume of s, even after s is over, Duoman does not sell a large number of single lines of s, but only sells the price. A higher finish. What's more, Teacher Wei Mao also recorded 5 shows, which is a big advantage." Lu Yiming turned to look at Wei Mao, "After all, a cartoonist is a cartoonist, not a star."

"But" Wei Mao gritted his teeth and frowned. "It's not that I actively wanted to record so many shows."

"Then you think about the way forward, how did you go?" Lu Yiming asked rhetorically.

Suddenly, Wei Mao turned around and continued scanning nae.

Lu Yiming sighed. He is the editor of Shonen Manga, but he also understands Shonen Manga.

The level of Warm House is inconsistent with its current results, but it does not mean that this is not a good manga~www.NovelMTL.com~ At least, girls' comics have all the highlights, and the story is also a love comic with humor. Read It's easy to get up, and for people who have never read comics, the threshold is not high.

On the one hand, sinking his heart to polish his works, on the other hand, being a star cartoonist in front of the stage, Wei Mao must have a choice.

However, celebrity cartoonists can be copied, and the emergence of this model will make many newcomers impetuous. In the long run, it is not a good thing for the comics circle.

As an old editor, he does not want to see the comic circle become impetuous, but hopes that more good works will come out.

If you don't like comics from the heart, how many people can be the editor in charge for 35 years?

The most embarrassing person in the room was Fei Xu.

His nae has only been changed in half, but Lu Yiming has already put away the glasses. So, should he put away the nae or continue to ask Lu Yiming to make changes?

Fei Xu didn't know it himself.
