Chapter 224: The rhythm of comics

   For Shen Xin, "The Soul of Chess" is based on the Internet Go or the appearance of sai as the dividing line.

Before the appearance of sai, the content of "God of Go" was mainly professional Go. After the emergence of sai, a large number of elements related to professional Go will appear one by one.

The changes in the scene, both for Shen Xin, and for the other people in the studio, felt great pressure.

Xie Shiqi also turned down the commentary from several TV stations-some rules may not be clear to professional chess players, let alone Shen Xin who is still a novice in Go, so she has to supervise repeatedly.

What's more, the next "Xie Chengbo Go Dojo" will appear in "Soul of the Game" as the main background for a long time. As Xie Chengbo's granddaughter, of course, she must fully support "Soul of the Game".

Shen Xin was equally cautious. Even before starting to paint, he deliberately gathered the three assistants together and told them that from this point onwards, the background was mainly drawn by him and Gao Hang, and the others made ink lines, dotted paper and effects. Lines and other aspects of processing.

"You seem to be getting serious too?" Wang Wenhong smiled.

"I've always been serious." Shen Xin handed the checked manuscript to Wang Wenhong, and stretched his waist. "Immediately, "Soul of Chess" will become more and more interesting."

"So confident?" Wang Wenhong was a little surprised, and took out the manuscript, "'"? Do you use English as the title?"

If you are familiar with the games in Zone 11, you will know that "" means "Zelda." Yumi Horita chose this name as a tribute to "The Legend of Zelda."

In "The Soul of the Game", "" is the name of the college student and Gu Yigao when they played online Go.

Shinto Hikaru also saw Hegu playing chess with other people, and then thought about playing Go online, and then "sai" was born.

"Well, it is enough that the title can express the content of this sentence." Shen Xin explained.

"Yes."

Wang Wenhong nodded and quickly read the 29th chapter. After putting it down, his heart couldn't be calm for a long time, "It's finally involved professional Go."

"Yeah...After that, this comic will be on the right track." Shen Xin smiled.

"According to the last hint of this sentence,'zeald' should be a screen name... the account of Internet Go." Wang Wenhong recalled the plot in the comic just now, "However, if it comes to professional Go in the future, Xiaoguang must also start. It’s right to learn Go. This is why you asked Teacher Xie for photos of the dojo?"

"This shouldn't be a secret." Shen Xin said casually.

"Yes. If the plot is arranged like this, Xiaoguang should have an opportunity... From an amateur chess player to a professional chess player. The next plot is really exciting, Teacher Shen." Wang Wenhong said excitedly.

"Yeah...I'm looking forward to it too." Shen Xin opened the drawer, took out a can of coffee from the drawer, and threw it to Wang Wenhong.

Next, there will be original plots, especially the fixed stage, Huaxia is completely different from District 11.

How to draw a name is also a headache for Shen Xin. Now look at it, slowly drawing the name behind.

This is like writing an online novel, with outlines and detailed outlines.

The outline can be regarded as determining the direction of the online novel. As long as there is an outline, the novel will have a high probability of not deviating from the main line of the story, and the detailed outline defines the specific content to be written.

Although you can write a story without a detailed outline, the speed is definitely slower, because the brain needs to think about the structure of a chapter plot, and the speed of typing on the keyboard will also slow down.

"By the way, have you watched "Slam Dunk" recently?" Wang Wenhong suddenly remembered this.

"No."

"Slam Dunk has some changes... If the protagonist and his team had a smooth journey before, but in the most recent one, they lost the game instead."

"Ok?"

Hearing Wang Wenhong's words, Shen Xin immediately stood up and walked to the fence on the second floor, "Ma Ning, throw up the latest issue of "mangafly"."

"Oh."

Ma Ning immediately got up, went to the bookshelf by the wall, pulled out a "mangafly", and threw it on the second floor.

"What's the matter?" Lu Ning saw Ma Ning sitting down, puzzled.

"I don't know." Ma Ning shook his head in confusion. He was curious how Shen Xin suddenly became interested in "mangafly".

After receiving the magazine, Shen Xin found "Slam Dunk", flipped through it quickly, got up quickly, went downstairs, and found out all the past dozen issues of "Mangafly".

The three assistants looked at Shen Xin in surprise, and saw that he was up the stairs again, not understanding what had happened.

Shen Xin couldn't pay attention to the eyes of other people. After reading it roughly, he said: "The rhythm has changed...The name of the latest episode is very powerful."

"Rhythm?" Wang Wenhong was slightly taken aback.

"Well. The previous rhythm is very fast, and readers will feel very happy when reading it. But a comic or a work cannot always maintain a rhythm. There are highs. tides and lows. "Slam Dunk" "It's just to advance the fast pace.

"Subsequently, Tamagawa should also be aware of the problem. In fact, in the previous few words, he has been trying to slow down, so the length of the game with other teams has become longer. However, he did so only to simply lengthen the story. , Making the plot of this episode bloated, but the rhythm of the comics has not changed, and the reader's emotions have been mobilized.

"But this is not the same. Because of the two previous words and the reasons, the protagonist did not play in order to save his energy. Even if he loses the game, the reader can understand it, and it highlights the protagonist's importance in the team. Sex. There should be readers who think that'if the protagonist plays, it is definitely not the result'.

"The overall rhythm of "Slam Dunk" is declining, but the reader's sense of expectation of the protagonist has not changed. The more important point is that this statement has planted a seed in the reader's heart."

"What seed?"

"The protagonist and his team may lose the game. In "Soul of Go", Hikaru lost several games even if he did something. Therefore, even if Hikaru continues to lose the game later, readers can still accept it.

"Similarly, Tamagawa lets the protagonist's team lose the most insignificant official game~www.NovelMTL.com~ Then the future plots will have unlimited possibilities. For example, if the protagonist's performance is restricted, the team may lose. Therefore, the appearance of this sentence has untied Tamagawa's constraints. The space behind the manga will be huge."

"This should be the idea of ​​the 11 district editor?" Wang Wenhong speculated.

"Impossible. If it were him, the rhythm of "Slam Dunk" would not change until now."

Shen Xin shook his head, but Yan Fei thought of Yan Fei in his mind.

As the editor of "Slam Dunk" in "mangafly", Yan sister should also be very concerned about the trend of this comic.

"Fortunately, "Slam Dunk" is not directly related to "Soul of the Game", but other cartoonists in "Young Leap" should have a headache." Wang Wenhong stood up with a smile, "Right, Teacher Shen, there will be "in January" The annual meeting of "icfuture" is expected to send out invitations soon. When that happens, be sure to spare one night."

"Huh? There is such a thing?"

Shen Xin was taken aback, "newworld" has never held an annual meeting.

"Of course, "icfuture" is not a small magazine. In addition to allowing teachers to have time to rest, a more important reason is that some animation companies or game companies will also participate. With the current popularity of "Gossip", It is very likely that an animation company is willing to buy the copyright of "God of Go"."

"So...that's good."

After listening to Wang Wenhong's explanation, Shen Xin also looked forward to the annual meeting of "icfuture".
