Chapter 896: Threshold
Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei's wedding did not invite many people, except for the people in the studio, Lu Ning, Ji Yinxuan, Ye Hexu and Zuo Yuan, they were their relatives and friends.
Ye Hexu kept inquiring about the news of Shen Xin's next comics, and Shen Xin told him not to worry, when the draft is finished, he will definitely let him know.
Zuo Yuan was also invited because he had cooperated with Yan Fei. When he saw Shen Xin, he looked excited, and Shen Xin hurriedly asked him to take two deep breaths, and he calmed down.
At the beginning, if it wasn't for Shen Xin sacrificing his life to save him, the grass on his grave would probably be one person taller.
"12 Years Old Again" is currently in the top 10 of the "Comic Future" book, and the results are very consistent.
In other words, although "12 Years Old Again" is not high, but on "Comic Future", there is only such a comic for younger people, so its position is very stable, not only continues to publish single books, but even the animation has never been interrupted, but Zuo Yuan told Shen Xin that he has been considering new comics with Xu Jie again, but he is struggling with the choice of themes and has no ideas.
"What's the new comic......" Shen Xin looked at Zuo Yuan and Zheng Ping, and suddenly asked, "What about Xiaochan?" ”
"She's already in school." Zuo Yuan said with a smile.
"I think so, the two lovely daughters like Xiaochan should be very happy, right?"
Zuo Yuan and Zheng Ping nodded.
In this case, why not pass on this happiness to more people? Create a comic with a little girl as the main character? ”
There are also many comics with children as the main characters, and the most representative comic is "Crayon Shin-chan". And if it is based on Zuo Chan, Shen Xin hopes that it is Connor in "Xiaolin's Dragon Maid", or platelets in working cells.
"Meng is justice", there is still some truth.
At Yan Fei's wedding, Wu Xiaoli was also complaining that the work was difficult to do, and in the final analysis, it was the author she wanted who refused to sign a contract with the magazine.
Either the magazine gave in, or, he didn't sign.
Wu Xiaoli complained to Shen Xin and Ye Hexu.
Because Wu Xiaoli drank a lot of wine and couldn't speak clearly, Shen Xin didn't care too much.
After Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei's happy event was completed, the studio was finally on the right track.
On the third day after the wedding, Shen Xin arranged Yan Fei to Lu Ning and asked Wang Wenhong to follow his short story.
Yan Fei expressed a clear protest against this.
"I'm alone, and I can be in charge of two cartoonists at the same time."
Wang Wenhong was not happy.
"You're in charge of two cartoonists by yourself, so why am I going?"
"How do I know there's no place for you here?" Yan Fei rolled her eyes.
"Two, stop!" Shen Xin hurriedly made a "stop" gesture, "Sister Yan, I did this for a reason. ”
"Huh?"
"I have a hunch that the competition for light reading is no lower than that of Comic Future. That's why I need you to help Lu Ning throughout the process. ”
"Why?" Yan Fei was puzzled.
"At the wedding, you and Brother Wang were busy toasting, and there were some things you didn't know. Xiaoli said a lot of things after drinking. First of all, Mr. Han Ye was very dissatisfied with the results of "Magic Creation World", and recreated a new comic, Xiaoli meant, two comics, choose one of the two. The comics with good grades were serialized on "Comic Future", and the ones with poor grades were moved to light reading serialization, and it became a bi-weekly update.
"Mr. Han Ye's ability to create stories is slightly worse than Mr. Ye's, but the storyboard is on par with Mr. Ye, and his painting skills are also better than Mr. Ye. Whether it is "Magic Creation World" or Mr. Han's new work, if you move to light reading, there is only one goal, to win the first place. I don't need to say more about what will happen then, right? ”
Yan Fei and Wang Wenhong looked at each other, and an idea flashed in their minds - "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny", "The Demon King's Tutor" and a work by Han Ye "strangled each other".
"If nothing else, Han Ye's works are black and white, and at that time, "The Gate of Destiny Stone" will not only have one more opponent, but also the storyboard and picture will be compared. In this case, the current Lu Ning is under a lot of pressure. That's the first point I'm going to make.
"Also, I read the so-called full-color page of "The Demon King's Tutor", and to be honest, I was a little disappointed."
Shen Xin took out the pad and opened the color page of "The Demon King's Tutor".
"The storyboard is in the original work, and Snow has made appropriate changes according to his own situation, but at present, it seems that it is a little stiff, and it should not have grasped the main point of the storyboard, and it still needs to be practiced. The person who drew the ink line is snow, and you can see from the style that the basic skills are really solid, and the characters and backgrounds are very detailed, but the coloring is too rough. This is by no means the color on the snow, it should be done by an assistant.
"The essence of the color page should be to let the reader see the other side of the comic, not to cover up the details in the comic."
Wang Wenhong took the pad, took a quick glance, and also felt the problem.
The color of the background is very single, and the blank space of the grid is usually a color, and the grid usually feels very full, and the reader has no place to imagine, and the gradient of the color is also very rough at first glance, and the reflective treatment of the color does not have a sense of transparency.
"It's still too rough." Yan Fei shook her head, "If I am still an editor, there is no way to make a color page of this quality." ”
"The cost of a good assistant is very high, just like Liu Ruoxing, her salary alone is worth these people." Wang Wenhong sighed.
"Therefore,Color comics have high quality,The quality of Mi Guo color comics is extremely high,The quality of the 11 area roll head color pages is also good。 But if it's that quality, the studio won't make much money. However, it is precisely this kind of color page that has a part of the readership. I'm thinking about the threshold for coloring pages, it's too low. If "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" loses to such a color page, I will not be convinced. Shen Xin shook his head.
Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at Shen Xin nervously.
"I'm going to ...... Well...... That short comic, in addition to the original black and white comic, will also have a full-color page. Shen Xin said with a smile.
Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei looked at each other, this version of the color page is estimated to hang the appetite of many readers.
"Also, although the short comics are temporarily watched by Brother Wang, but Sister Yan, I am going to have another version of the Japanese short story, and then upload it to the forum in District 11, and I need you to translate it at that time, Brother Wang...... You'll have to learn for a while. ”
Wang Wenhong was a little unconvinced, but his Japanese was indeed inferior to Yan Fei, so he could only stare dryly and lose his temper.
Yan Fei squeezed her eyes twice at Wang Wenhong, looking proud, but thinking about "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" in her heart, she wondered: "But if the level of the color pages of "The Tutor of the Demon King" increases, wouldn't "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" be dangerous. ”
"High-quality black and white pages are also highly sought after by readers, and rest assured that some black and white pages work better than color pages. Secondly, if you want to improve the quality of color pages, you really have to spend money, which depends on whether the other party can withstand it. Shen Xin rubbed his hands and chuckled.
