After deciding to draw "Chess Soul", Shen Xin has been thinking about a problem.

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

"Chess Soul" takes place in District 11, and he is now serialized in a magazine in Huaxia, so no matter the background or the name, it has to be adjusted. In addition, there is another more troublesome place, that is, the processing of Zuowei's image.

Fujiwara Sawei is one of the most critical characters in "Chess Soul", and his importance is no less than that of Shinto Hikatsu, and his popularity should still be above Shinto Hikaru. Therefore, it is very difficult for Sawei to change, but Fujiwara Sawei can't help but change.

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

His clothes are very similar to those of the Onmyoji, but in fact, this kind of clothing is not only worn by the Onmyoji.

Its name is hunting clothing, as the name suggests, it is a clothing worn when hunting, because it is more convenient to wear it, so people with status prefer it.

In the Heian period of the 11th ward, hunting clothes were the casual clothes of the official family, and Fujiwara Sawei was a person from the Heian period, so he appeared in "Chess Soul" as a hunting suit.

And now if you move "Chess Soul" to Huaxia, you have to face a problem, Huaxia does not have a hunting suit, so it is not suitable to wear a hunting suit again.

This is also the reason why Shen Xin asked Wang Wenhong for the address of the library, and he had to find clothes that fit Fujiwara Sawei.

The reason why Zuo Wei is loved by the majority of "Chess Soul" lovers is that his appearance is handsome and handsome, and at the same time, it has a lot to do with his gentle and elegant personality and noble temperament.

As soon as such a character appears, it is easy to be liked by readers.

In Shen Xin's view, among the Chinese costumes, the most suitable for Zuowei should be Hanfu. However, the Han Dynasty was too old to be timely, and the Han Dynasty did not fold fans.

After thinking about it, Shen Xin decided to use a straight fix, and Zuo Wei either used a hairpin or a scarf on his head.

After Wang Wenhong handed over the contract with the official seal to Shen Xin, he also began to negotiate with the homeowner, and finally finalized 380,000 yuan for 4 years, and the remaining 20,000 yuan, he bought tables, chairs, computers and printers.

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

After seeing the porter put the tables and chairs away, Shen Xin was a little uneasy.

Wang Wenhong smiled bitterly, "What's the trick, it's just two drinks." The owner also has a property elsewhere, and he can't live here, you haven't seen it, there is not much furniture, how high can it be? ”

That's right.

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

"Now I'm just making a character, not a name." Shen Xin waved at Wang Wenhong, and at the same time picked up the sketch on the table, which one do you think is better? ”

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

"Wait...... Mr. Shen, aren't you drawing Go? ”

"Hmm."

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

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

"But you'...... Isn't this a figure from antiquity? Wang Wenhong pointed to the character and said in surprise.

"It's a very important character in the comics." Shen Xin patiently explained.

"That's ......" Wang Wenhong bowed slightly, "I understand." ”

"You get it?" Shen Xin looked at Wang Wenhong in surprise, he didn't say anything?

"Well, you're going to use anti-time-traveling, where ancient characters travel to the present world. Just like "Crumbling". Wang Wenhong said quite confidently.

It's not the same at all, right?

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

"Which? It's hard to say. Wang Wenhong frowned slightly, staring at the draft in his hand, "These few hats look more rigorous...... Well, maybe it's more appropriate to say they're 'pedantic'. This scarf is not bad, but since you said that he is an important character, then I think it is better not to use a scarf, otherwise, it will be very cumbersome to draw the character - the image of the main character must ensure that it has characteristics, but not too cumbersome. ”

"That's just as well." Shen Xin agreed with Wang Wenhong's statement

With less unnecessary work, he can have more energy to focus on other details of the comics.

However, according to Wang Wenhong, if it is a Confucian scarf, a square scarf, or a net scarf, it is not quite in line with Zuowei's image.

"Or use a hosta?" Shen Xin said in a low voice, and at the same time lowered his head and redrew the sketch.

Zuo Wei is gentle and elegant, but there is a sense of arrogance in his heart, and his dedication to Go is far beyond others, and at the same time, when Zuo Wei is serious, the momentum on his body 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 also has one of the most important props - the five-bone bat fan.

This kind of fan is also a product of the Heian period, and it is also the Song Dynasty that was transmitted to China from the 11th district, but since then, the folding fan of Huaxia is different from the five-bone bat fan, and there are more fan bones.

Considering the elegant image of Zuo Wei, Shen Xin chose an incense fan.

In general, there is a bit of a magic change in Zuo Wei's image, but Shen Xin can't do much so that he can only try to make Zuo Wei more in line with his requirements.

It took about fifty or sixty pages of manuscript paper, and I flipped through more than a dozen books related to clothing to set up a more satisfactory Sawei, and in addition, Sawei's background had to be changed from the Heian period to the Ming Dynasty.

After determining Zuo Wei's image, Shen Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

As a popular character in "Chess Soul", Shen Xin must be more detailed with Zuo Wei, as for the other characters, the character design is much simpler, just apply the characters of the original work.

After Wang Wenhong saw the character design, he was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to look at Zuo Wei's text introduction, and he was a little stunned in an instant.

"Wait, you're saying that this character called 'Zuowei' didn't travel through time, but the soul?" Wang Wenhong was surprised.

"I didn't say he crossed over, did I?" Shen Xin asked rhetorically.

"That's right." Wang Wenhong looked at the character in his hand, and suddenly wondered about the development of the story, "When will the name come out?" ”

"The names of the first three words will come out soon, but after drawing the names of the first three words, I will have a period of preparation, about two months."

"So long? Why? ”

"You've probably forgotten that since it's a Go comic, there must be a game in it, but I don't know how to play Go myself. Therefore, I have to find some professionals to provide chess scores, and after each episode, there must also be professional chess players to supervise the comics and check for errors. By the way, you may also have to go to the dojo or the chess academy to observe. Therefore, please make some preparations in advance. Shen Xin explained.
