Chapter 1177: Readers' expectations

To ensure that he could meet Yu Chen, Wang Wenhong called him on the road.

When Yu Chen heard that Shen Xin had come, his scalp was numb.

If he came at another time, he would definitely welcome him with both hands, but at this time, one was embarrassing at the time, and another, Shen Xin came over, wondering what would happen.

However, he couldn't directly refuse, and heard that Shen Xin and Wang Wenhong were already on the road, so he could only agree.

In the editorial department, the editors who were irritated by readers' calls, heard Shen Xin coming and couldn't help but look at Yu Chen.

Even for them, they rarely see Shen Xin who doesn't come to the magazine very much.

There is not much intersection between Shen Xin and them. There is only an intersection of works between them. Besides, there is no extra communication at all. Moreover, in Shen Xin's current state, there is no need to run here often.

When I heard Yu Chen mentioned that Shen Xin would come, I was a little surprised.

The reader's call continued, and the assistants immediately focused on responding to the reader's call, but there was a doubt in their hearts-why did Shen Xin come over?

In about an hour, the three of Shen Xin arrived at the editorial department of "ComicFuture".

After the editors saw it, they called Yu Chen who was working, and Yu Chen stood up immediately.

Shen Xin pointed to the conference room on the inside separated by a glass wall. Yu Chen nodded and walked in first.

Shen Xin greeted the editor she knew, but found that she didn't see Wu Xiaoli, and she was a little strange, but she didn't think about it, but went straight into the meeting room.

"Ms. Shen, you don't come here much, right?" Yu Chen said after seeing Shen Xin and the others sitting down.

Shen Xin glanced around the conference room, "In my impression, I haven't been to this conference room much."

In fact, although Shen Xin has been to the building of Yishu Culture, the editorial department rarely comes.

"Haha... That, made Teacher Shen laugh. The editorial department has been very busy in the past two days... If Teacher Shen has anything we need to cooperate with, it may take two days of grace." Yu Chen smiled.

"No, what I said is related to what you are busy with."

The muscles on Yu Chen's face stiffened instantly, and he coughed slightly, "Mr. Shen, this matter has nothing to do with you, so don't mix it up."

"I don't want to get mixed up, I'm also very busy, this time I come out, I need a lot of time to talk, to make up for today's work." Shen Xin explained.

"Then you... please go back first? It won't be long before this matter should be over."

"At that time, I was afraid it would be too late." Shen Xin sighed.

"Huh?" Yu Chen raised his brows slightly and stared at Shen Xin, "Teacher Shen, what do you mean? Could it be Fan Yinmo begging you?"

"Fan Yinmo has retired from the comics circle, what's the use of finding me?" Shen Xin stared at Yu Chen coldly, "I just hope that this matter will have a better result."

Yu Chen didn't say anything, but the sneer on his face was telling Shen Xin that he was nosy.

Shen Xin was not angry, and smiled: "Mr. Yu, can you answer me a few questions?"

"Please speak." Yu Chen wanted to see what problems Shen Xin could raise.

Xi Muhan also stared at Shen Xin. She even wanted to know what kind of attitude Shen Xin would have when facing this incident.

Before, Shen Xin's attitude had been unclear, but before setting off, his attitude should be more inclined to Fan Yinmo, which is rather strange.

"The first question, when you made this decision, did you consider the expectations of the readers?" Shen Xin asked.

"Although the readers spent money, they also got the leaflets and magazines. Although "A World Without Demon" was cut in half, we didn't charge the readers, right?" Yu Chen smiled.

"Hey, President Yu seems to have not heard my question clearly. What I said is not whether you have considered the'reader', but whether you have considered the reader's'expectation'." Shen Xin chuckled, Yu Chen obviously misunderstood. His intention, he can only repeat the question again.

"What?" Yu Chen was stunned.

Wang Wenhong also rubbed his chin, lost in thought.

He had never considered this matter from this aspect before.

"When the editors were mentoring newcomer cartoonists, they said one thing. The cartoonists try to keep suspense at the end of each sentence, so as to attract readers and let readers buy the next cartoon. Brother Wang, you are guiding When you are a newcomer, do you do that too?"

When Wang Wenhong saw Shen Xin asking him, he nodded immediately.

"It is said to set up suspense. In fact, it is to let readers have a sense of anticipation for the story, and make readers involuntarily buy magazines and pamphlets. For a magazine, this is very important, right?"

Yu Chen wanted to refute, but didn't know how to answer.

For a magazine, the most important thing is the reader.

No matter how famous and powerful a cartoonist is, if readers don’t buy it, his value will be greatly reduced. Otherwise, there won’t be so many famous cartoonists. After a comic is on fire, he won’t be able to find him again. Here it is.

Shen Xin cut from the reader's point, and he did not expect it.

"Readers have expectations for a story, and they also have expectations for the follow-up plot of a comic. This is why they choose to read this comic. In the comics, there are readers' expectations for this comic, and they also have expectations for this comic. The various fantasies of the comics, and then, waiting for the author to slowly reveal, the heart gives out the idea of'haha, the same as I thought', or'wo.c, this is the operation'.

"The results of "A World Without Demons" are very good, indicating that readers like this comic very much. They don't want this comic to be forced to end for some reason. From the reader's point of view, the issue between the magazine and the cartoonist , Leave it to both parties to solve. What they need is the comics they like to be serialized. So, when you did this, did you think about the readers’ feelings?"

The reader's sense of expectation is very important to the work.

Shen Xin was an online writer before crossing, and he knew that some novels were written with seven or eight million words, or even tens of millions.

Of course there is water in such novels. Shen Xin has never seen such a long novel, and he does not know how high the "water content" is, but he can write so many characters, usually his grades are not bad, and the readers also know that they are very watery. ~www.NovelMTL.com~ but will continue to subscribe, the big reason is that readers want to know the ending of the novel.

"What's more, the normal completion of a popular comic will have an impact on the comics website, not to mention that "ComicFuture" has only 20 comics serialized, and "A World Without Demons" is still forced to be cut. Are you sure, after the loss of this part of readers , Will you come back?" Shen Xin asked rhetorically.

If famous cartoonists move to different platforms, they will inevitably take away some readers. This is undoubtedly, otherwise, the platform will not make great efforts to dig out those cartoonists. The chain reaction brought by Wang Yunze’s digging is very good. example.

Wang Wenhong looked at Shen Xin in surprise, he did not expect Shen Xin to look so far.

"I understand what you think, but... the double contract is impossible for the magazine to pretend not to see it. This is not only related to the prestige and prestige of the magazine. If Fan Yinmo wants to make some small actions, we have nothing to do. "Yu Chen's tone was blunt, and he could see that he was very upset, but he still gave an explanation.

"The reader should not be the one who suffers." Shen Xin reiterated his point of view again, and then sighed again. "Also, Mr. Yu, the second half of "DUNK" is over. Is "ComicFuture" ready for it? There are too many readers to lose. When I serialize again, these readers will probably never come back."

Yu Chen was speechless for a while.

He knew that "DUNK" was about to end, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

In a few months, "DUNK" will end...

This is also... somewhat unacceptable.
