My Cartoonist Guide

　　 The sales of "Y's" also declined steadily after a week.

　　 In fact, this is also easy to understand. Readers who want to pay for a single book will buy it at the first time. Therefore, the follow-up sales of any comic cannot be compared with the previous few days.

　　 This is not only the case with "Y's", "Crime" is not much better than "Ys".

　　 was released for a whole month, and the sales volume of "Y's" was just 550,000 copies, and the total sales volume reached 1.32 million copies. The total sales volume of "Crimination" also followed closely to 1.25 million copies.

　　The comics in the front line did not wait to die, and released new pamphlets one after another.

　　 Although the ranking of "Y's" on the newcomer list has not changed, since other comics have also been released in single-volume editions, there has been a certain distance in sales.

　　 For this situation, Shen Xin is not in a hurry either.

　　 There are still five months left before October. As long as the quality of "Y's" does not crash, there is a chance of reversal.

The work room did not relax because they had achieved a little achievement. Their workload was still very large, but the bonus was doubled. So the three assistants did not complain, but were more serious, trying to achieve every manuscript. Extreme.

　　 During this period, Zhou Yang also handed the second short story of "Ghost Power" to Shen Xin and asked him to check it again.

To draw an excellent short comic, the manga artist has to put in a lot of energy to repeatedly modify the name, and have a complete structure in 50 pages, explaining the cause, course and results of the story clearly, introducing the background, And to be pavement, there is a climax.

　　Shen Xin doesn't like to draw short comics very much, because the things he considers are too cumbersome, he felt this kind of pain when he first drew "Equation of Love".

　　 But short stories also have the advantage of short stories, that is, it is easier for cartoonists to grasp the rhythm and will not get out of control.

　　 If the length of the page is too long, for some cartoonists of average strength, there may be a state of powerlessness in the later stage, which will affect the end of the story and lead to unfinished situations.

　　 It might even be cruel and cut it off with a single cut.

　　 This kind of thing, although not very common, is not unheard of.

　　 Zhou Yang belongs to the kind with richer imagination, and has many rarer settings.

　　 Shen Xin also discussed the title of the book with Zhou Yang. At that time, Zhou Yang said that "ghost power" is a kind of ability, and different higher ghosts have different ghost powers.

　　 Hearing this explanation, Shen Xin immediately understood, but then said that the title of the book is not very good, and many comics do not use "ability" as the title.

　　 "What is it named after?" Zhou Yang asked in surprise.

　　 Lu Ning pricked up her ears, she also wanted to hear Shen Xin's understanding.

　　 "Identify the identity of the protagonist, and then the subject of the comic."

The former are more common such as "Saint Seiya", "Full-time Hunter", "Naruto", "Reaper", "Fairy Tail"... As for the latter, there are "One Piece", "Dragon Ball", "Dream Eater" , "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure" and other comics.

　　 Of course, there are other types of book titles, but these two are more common.

"If you decide to use "Ghost Power", then you must carefully consider the name of "Ghost Power". Either, "Ghost Power" is the aggregation of souls in the first chapter name, or, "Ghost Power" is the protagonist. Occupation."

　　 "What is the difference between the two?" Lu Ning turned her head and asked puzzledly.

"The way of expressing the world view is different." Shen Xin explained, "If "Ghost Power" represents the aggregation of souls, then when you paint, you should focus on the type of "Ghost Power" and, moreover, Explain clearly the reasons for the emergence of'ghost power'. It is possible that in the early stage, the world view of the whole story will be determined, and the length of the comic may even be limited. When all ghost power is defeated, it means that the story is about to end ."

　　Using the enemy as the title of the book, Shen Xin first thought of "Giant".

　　 "The latter category is more flexible. The ‘ghost power’ only represents the protagonist’s profession. Then, the protagonist may face different enemies. When the enemy is defeated, just switch to a new enemy."

　　 After hearing Shen Xin's explanation, Zhou Yang did not hesitate to choose the latter category.

　　 He doesn't know how long he will draw later, but it is obvious that the latter has more room for manipulation.

　　 After confirming the theme, Zhou Yang's name has a sense of clarity. After reading it, Xiaoli nodded repeatedly.

　　 "This is much better than the previous setting, just design the name according to this setting!"

　　 was affirmed by Xiaoli, Zhou Yang also had the confidence to draw a new short comic under the new name.

　　 At the same time, Yan Fei also brought news that Song Tai will discuss the next stage of propaganda with Shen Xin tomorrow, and the meeting place will still be the magazine.

To be honest, so far, Shen Xin has not thought of a very good way. Therefore, to meet Song Tai tomorrow, on the one hand, he will listen to Song Tai’s opinions, and on the other hand, he must beware of Song Tai’s conditions. Never jump into the trap.

　　 Leaving the studio, it was almost 10 o'clock, Shen Xin did not go to other places, but returned home directly.

　　 Xi Muhan has been in a good mood recently, mainly because of the big sales of "Y's".

　　 When eating every day, she would tell Shen Xin the reactions of some of her classmates. For example, nearly one-third of the class has watched "Y's". Another example is that an iron fan in the class robbed it three times before grabbing the third volume of the autographed edition.

Shen Xin usually has no chance to understand this. Hearing Xi Muhan's introduction, he also roughly understands the thoughts of high school students. For example, most people hope that Yizhi and Yigui are together, but they are also worried about the autumn leaf season, but hope for autumn. Ye Ji is with other boys.

This one…

　　 Shen Xin sighed, these people are really real.

　　 Needless to say, most of the people who have this kind of thinking are boys. If the girl who has a crush on the protagonist ends up with another boy, it is a "send to the girl."

　　 As an internet author in his previous life, Shen Xin still knows some poisons.

　　 But the problem is that in the final words of "I"s, Akiba did find someone she liked in the end, but Katsura Masawa didn't say clearly whether the person she liked was the one in her heart or someone else.

　　 When he got home, his vision was completely dark. Only a small piece of light radiated from the crack in the door of Xi Muhan's bedroom.

　　 Xi Muhan's room door was closed tightly, but the room's light shone from the door, and he should not be asleep yet.

　　 Shen Xin turned on the light, UU reading www.uukanshu.com just closed the door, and then heard the door opening sound behind him.

　　 Don't guess, it must be the little girl who opened the door.

"have not slept yet?"

　　 "Brother Xin, you came back a bit late today." Xi Muhan ran out of the bedroom wearing pink pajamas.

　　 "Well. I'm going to the magazine tomorrow morning, and I will have a little more work tonight. It's probably ten thirty, right? You should take a break, too."

　　 Shen Xin went to the bathroom to wash his face, and when he came out, he found that Xi Muhan had brought the food out and sat at the table grinning.

　　 Today's Xi Muhan seems to be more agile in his movements.

　　 "What's the happy event?" Shen Xin asked.

　　 "Huh? How do you know?" Xi Muhan asked in surprise.

　　 "'People are happy and spirited,' something must have happened to you. You got the first grade in the exam?" Shen Xin speculated a little.

　　 "No. Isn't it common to take the first exam?" Xi Muhan turned his head.

　　 "Then...you can't make a boyfriend, right?" Shen Xin asked tentatively.

　　 Xi Muhan's eyes were round and his cheeks were slightly bulging.

　　 "Are you right?" Shen Xin asked in surprise.

　　 "Of course not. Having said that, I would not fall in love in high school." Chi Muhan clasped his fingers, but his eyes were extremely unfriendly when he looked at Shen Xin.

　　 "What is that?"

　　 "I submitted an article to the magazine, and I showed you the novel that I set."

　　 "Oh, fantasy." Shen Xin was a little impressed. Before the New Year, he did make some suggestions, "What then?"

　　 "Almost, it may need to be revised." Xi Muhan explained.

"what?"

　　 Shen Xin looked at Xi Muhan with a surprised look, this incident was not what he expected.
