　　 Shen Xin has been thinking about a problem after deciding to draw "Soul of Chess".

How to perfectly combine "The Soul of Chess" with Chinese culture.

"Soul of the Game" took place in District 11, and he is now serialized in China's magazine. Therefore, no matter the background or the name, he must make adjustments. In addition, there is a more troublesome place, that is, the handling of the image.

Fujiwara Saei is one of the most critical characters in "Hireki". His importance is no less than that of Shinto Hikaru, and his popularity should still be higher than Shinto Hikaru. Therefore, Sawei's changes are very difficult, but Fujiwara Sawei has to change.

The name is okay, Huaxia has the surname "Zuo", so you can directly call it "Zuowei". The difficulty of the change lies in the clothing.

His clothes are very similar to those of an onmyoji, in fact, this kind of clothes is not only for an onmyoji.

Its name is shouyi. As the name suggests, it is the clothes worn when hunting. Because it is more convenient to wear it, people with identity prefer it.

In the Heian period in the 11th district, the sari clothes were the official casual clothes, and Fujiwara Sayu was from the Heian era. Therefore, he appeared in the "Soul of Go" wearing the sari clothes.

But now moving "Hire of Chess" to Huaxia is facing a problem. Huaxia does not have hunting clothes, so it is not appropriate to wear hunting clothes.

This is why Shen Xin asked Wang Wenhong for the address of the library. He had to find suitable clothing for Fujiwara Sawei.

The reason why Zuowei is loved by the majority of "Hire of Chess" fans is because of his handsome and handsome appearance, and it also has a lot to do with his gentle personality and noble temperament.

Once such a character appears, it is easy to be loved by readers.

In Shen Xin's view, among Chinese clothing, the most suitable one should be Hanfu. However, the Han Dynasty is too old and the time is not suitable, and there is no folding fan in the Han Dynasty.

After thinking about it, Shen Xin decided to use a straight embellishment, and Zuo Wei's head was either a hairpin or a towel. This requires drawing a few more figures and making a comparison before making a decision.

After Wang Wenhong handed over the contract with the official seal to Shen Xin, he also began to negotiate with the homeowner, and finally settled on 380,000 yuan in 4 years. He bought a desk, chair, computer, and printer for the remaining 20,000 yuan.

"You didn't use any tricks, did you?"

After seeing the porter put the tables and chairs in place, Shen Xin was a little worried.

Wang Wenhong smiled bitterly, "How can there be any tricks? I just drank twice. Then the owner has real estate elsewhere, and I can't live here. You didn't see it. There is not much furniture. How high can the price be?"

This is true.

"How is it? Is there any progress on the drawing?" Wang Wenhong asked.

"I'm just doing a character design now, and I haven't made a name yet." Shen Xin beckoned to Wang Wenhong, and at the same time picked up the drawing on the desktop. Which one do you think is better? "

Wang Wenhong took the sketch, glanced at the set, his face changed slightly.

"Wait... Teacher Shen, don't you draw Go?"

"Ok."

"These people are like Confucian scholars, are they ancient Go? Teacher Shen...The sense of substitution of ancient Go is not as good as modern Go." Wang Wenhong said.

"Who said to draw ancient Go?" Shen Xin puzzled.

"But you... isn't this an ancient character?" Wang Wenhong pointed to the character set, surprised.

"This is a very important character in the comics." Shen Xin explained patiently.

"That's it..." Wang Wenhong nodded slightly, "I understand."

"Do you understand?" Shen Xin looked at Wang Wenhong in amazement, he didn't say anything yet?

"Well, you are going to use anti-traversal, ancient characters travel to the present world. It's like "Toggle"." Wang Wenhong said confidently.

It's not the same at all, okay?

Shen Xin muttered in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Look at these personalities, which one is better."

"Which? It's really hard to say." Wang Wenhong frowned, staring at the draft in his hand, "These hats look more rigorous... Well, maybe they are more suitable for being'pedantic'. This net towel is also good. , But since you say that he is an important character, then I don’t think you should use a net towel, otherwise, drawing the character will be very cumbersome-the image of the main character must be unique and not too cumbersome."

"That's true." Shen Xin agrees with Wang Wenhong's statement

By reducing unnecessary workload, he can have more energy to pay attention to other details of the comics.

However, according to Wang Wenhong's statement, whether it is a Confucian scarf, a square scarf, or a net scarf, it does not fit the image of Zuowei.

"Or, just use the hosta?" Shen Xin said in a low voice, lowering his head and redrawing the sketch.

Zuo is gentle and elegant, but there is a sense of arrogance in his heart, and his persistence in Go is far superior to others. At the same time, when Zuo is serious, his aura makes people feel more majestic and noble.

Rigorous, persistent, gentle, elegant...

These temperaments gradually appeared on Shen Xin's paper.

In addition to clothing, Zuo Wei has one of the most important props-the five-bone bat fan.

This kind of fan was also a product of the Heian period, and it was also passed from the 11th district to the Song Dynasty of China. However, since then, the folding fan of China is different from the five-bone bat fan, with more fan bones.

Taking into account the elegant image of Zuowei, Shen Xin chose a fragrant fan.

On the whole, there is a taste of magical changes to Zuo Wei’s image, but Shen Xin has no choice but to make Zuo Wei more in line with his requirements~www.NovelMTL.com~ The manuscript paper used almost fifty or sixty pages. After reading more than a dozen books related to clothing, he set up a more satisfactory contribution. In addition, Zuwei's background has to be changed from the Heian era to Ming.

After confirming Zuo Wei's image, Shen Xin was relieved.

As a popular character in "Soul of the Chess", Shen Xin must be more detailed about Zuowei. As for the other characters, the character design is much simpler, just use the original characters.

After Wang Wenhong saw the set, he was delighted, and he couldn't wait to look at Zuo Wei's text introduction, suddenly a little confused.

"Wait, you mean, this character named'Zuowei' is not a traversal, but a soul?" Wang Wenhong said in surprise.

"I didn't say that he came through?" Shen Xin asked rhetorically.

"That's true." Wang Wenhong looked at the persona in his hand, suddenly curious about the development of the story, "When will the name come out?"

"The names of the first three episodes will be available soon, but after drawing the names of the first three episodes, I will have a period of preparation, about two months."

"So long? Why?"

"You probably forgot. Since it is a Go comic, there must be a game record in it, but I don’t know how to go. Therefore, I will find some professionals to provide the game record. After each sentence is over, there must be a professional chess player to review the comics. Supervise and check for errors. By the way, you may have to go to the dojo or chess academy to observe. Therefore, please make some preparations in advance." Shen Xin explained.
