My Cartoonist Guide

Chapter 345: Comics and adaptations

15 million copies?

Didn’t expect the sales in District 11 to be so good?

This was beyond Shen Xin's expectations.

Although "Soul of Chess" is serialized simultaneously in "Shoun Leap", it is not the first release after all. Therefore, the sales volume is definitely not as good as that of the earth, but it is really not easy to reach 15 million copies.

However, this poster also has one thing that makes Shen Xin feel very helpless, that is, the translation of the title of the book.

"Soul of the chess" is actually a free translation, literally meaning "the chess of light" in Japanese, and later translated into "the soul of chess". However, Shen Xin directly used the title of the book in the serialization of "comicfuture", and as a result, the 11th district was translated into "Go の魂".

This translation... so real.

Going up, there are still many types of goods, such as the library, girl manga, bl manga, fanzine, etc. in District 11, and games, audio and CD-ROM products are placed on the top floor.

After running a lap, everyone also felt sweaty, as if they had walked several miles.

When everyone went down to the first floor, they were shocked to see customers still in a long line.

"This cartoonist is probably pretty good, right?"

Shen Xin looked at the place where he signed the book, but he was too far away, and there were a lot of readers watching, and he didn't go over.

"Who knows? There are too many cartoonists in District 11, and anyone who has never heard of it will have a large number of fans." Wang Wenhong explained.

This is also true.

Shen Xin agreed with Wang Wenhong's statement, but then asked others, "Next, where shall we go? Find a place to eat?"

"Okay." Xi Muhan looked expectant.

She was already hungry when she was visiting "bnim", and when she heard the meal, she agreed with both hands.

Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei had no objection, and it was time to eat now. After the meal, everyone can go to buy some favorite things.

Not long after Shen Xin and his party walked out of "bnim", the cartoonist who signed the book finally put down his pen and shook his arm.

"Really tired."

The cartoonist looked at the long line in front of him, feeling a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

The next reader came to the cartoonist with two books.

"Tamagawa-teacher, this manga is really good-looking, will you play against foreign teams next?"

"This one……"

As soon as the cartoonist spoke, the young people behind stopped and said: "It is not convenient to disclose it now, please look forward to the next issue of the cartoon."

When the young man heard what the young man said, his face was disappointed.

The cartoonist signed the name on the front page of the pamphlet and handed it to the reader with both hands, "Thank you for your support."

The reader immediately smiled upon receiving the pamphlet.

After the reader turned and left, the cartoonist turned his head to look at the young man behind him: "Mr. Ishizawa, please don't frighten my readers."

Ishizawa smiled bitterly, "If I don't answer, you might just say that the manga is about to end, right?"

"of course."

Ishizawa sighed. Haruka Tamagawa didn't understand the importance of a full-length manga to a manga artist. What a pity.

Just as he was thinking about it, a reader came over with a pamphlet.

Tamagawa Haruka smiled reluctantly and picked up the signature pen again.

...

Not long after Shen Xin and his party returned to their residence, Ji Yinxuan and Xia Luo also returned to the hotel.

The three of them looked tired. After returning, they didn't say a word. They went to the bathhouse and took a bath before regaining their spirits.

In the restaurant, a group of people sat around a round table for dinner. Driven by curiosity, Shen Xin asked Xiang Ji Yinxuan: "Have you found the supervisor?"

"I didn't refuse, it seems that I still want to wait and see." Ji Yinxuan picked up the goblet and drank a sip of red wine.

"Then what do you do, do you wait for them to reply, or find someone else?" Shen Xin wondered.

"Look at tomorrow... If someone agrees tomorrow, I won't wait for their reply." Ji Yinxuan picked up a knife and fork, cut off a piece of foie gras, and dipped it in the sauce.

"Those people are too, the price we gave is not low, and also promised that they can bring their own assistants, why not just go ahead?" Charlotte did not understand.

"Maybe because we asked them to make it in China, right?" Ji Yinxuan explained, "not everyone in the team wants to leave home."

This is indeed true, especially that Ji Yinxuan hired a director.

"Speaking of which, I thought the ‘Beidou Cup’ was no more, but I didn’t expect you to take it down... You won’t lose money by doing this? Big movies are still very expensive.”

"Where will I lose money? I have already considered it. In fact, we just used the "Beidou Cup" to promote the game. Besides, China Chess Academy will also support "Soul of the Game" this time. For us, even if we can't make money, It won't be nothing." Ji Yinxuan said.

Shen Xin sighed with emotion, there are some things, if you don't think about it, you can't even think about it.

Take the "Beidou Cup" film as an example. As long as the quality is good, even if it doesn't make money, Zhenyu Technology will still not lose money. In cooperation with China Chess Academy, Zhenyu Technology's image is better than other game companies.

Capital is the asset of a company, and so is its image.

"By the way, Shen Xin, what type of comic will be your next?" Ji Yinxuan looked at Shen Xin curiously.

"Miss Ji, movies or animation... should your company only do this once?" Wang Wenhong asked.

Zhenyu Technology is the largest game company in China with strong assets. In case you can't start a comic magazine ~www.NovelMTL.com~, it will definitely have an impact on the domestic comic industry.

"For the time being, we have no plans to enter the animation industry. ACG is an industry. You should make the comics first so that the work can be recognized by the public. We can also save a lot of publicity costs by making games. Needless to say, Mr. Shen, two consecutive times Both of the works have been verified by the market, and both of them have won the grand prize of the "Comic Festival". To be honest, he is more powerful than other young cartoonists. In addition, he is my younger brother. If I need to modify the game, I Of course consider his work first."

Shen Xin waved his hand a little, "Senior Sister, you really look at me too highly."

"Actually, when it comes to adaptation... novels are also a good direction. Xiaohan's novel "Guotu" should also be good." Yan Fei said.

This time when she came to District 11, she only brought two novels from "Guotu", which looked very enjoyable.

In the case of acg, novels are considered upstream of all types, even comics, it is possible to adapt them based on novels.

Xi Muhan's face blushed, unexpectedly Yan Fei would suddenly mention "Guotu".

"I have read all of Xiaomei's novels. To be honest, it is not suitable for games, it is suitable for film and television, but we don't do this." Ji Yinxuan is a little regretful.

Shen Xin understands what Ji Yinxuan meant. After all, it is not that novels are not suitable for adaptation into games, but that male and female authors have different starting points for the same subject.

Female writers are more inclined to details, so female writers are usually delicate and full of emotions. These elements are difficult to reflect in the game. Male writers are more accustomed to starting from events and putting them in the game. An event is a task.

"Shen Xin, you haven't said yet, what will you draw in the next book?" Xi Muhan looked at Shen Xin again.
