Chapter 2559 Come for an Internship
The latest URL: "I am trying a new education model recently, and I recruited several children to participate in the training class. One of the children has a certain talent in comic appreciation and is very interested in the profession of comic editing, so I thought Bring him over to have a look and let him know what kind of job a manga editor is," Shen Long said.
Hearing this, Wubaiqitou finally let out a long sigh of relief. What should I think of it? It turned out to be such a trivial matter, so he hurriedly agreed, "No problem, it's my honor. Children come over? I'll show you around."
So this matter was settled easily, Wubaiqitou not only agreed to Shen Long's request, but also found a car from the comic book club, and personally sent Shen Long back to pick up these children.
After school in the afternoon, Shen Long took Nobi Nobita, Ogukawa Kou, Fat Tiger, Goda Takuko, Doraemon, Minamoto Shizuka, and Izugi Sugi back to Hitobashi, Chiyoda District, Tokyo. 2-chome 5th, got out of the car, everyone's eyes widened in surprise, "Wow, this is the manga club! Is the manga we usually read come from here?"
"In fact, this place is only responsible for the selection, review and editing of comics, and the printing will be done in a printing factory in the suburbs!" Wubaiqitou said with a smile. With the land price in such a place, it is not cost-effective to open a printing factory.
"Then, this time, I, Wubaiqitou, will take everyone to visit the comic club. Let's go in from here!" Wubaiqitou led the way.
"Thank you, Teacher Wubaiqitou!" Several children, led by Chu Mushanyingcai, bowed to Wubaiqitou to thank him, and he was touched a little at that time. Ah, just being polite.
"This is the mail room. Every day, countless newcomers who want to become cartoonists mail their manuscripts. These mails will be initially screened in the mail room, and then the drafts will be sent to the editing room for review by different editors. .” Five hundred banner heads first took them to a room piled with countless mails.
The staff in the mail room are quickly sorting through the letters, putting letters from readers in a pile, cartoonists in a pile, business cooperation letters in a pile... Among them, letters from readers and manga manuscripts are the most, and they are packed in several large boxes. And still keep putting new mail in the box.
"Is...is this too much?" Tekko Goda began to tremble, to compete with so many manga artists, can I really do it? She began to feel insecure again.
"Come on, let's come here again! Sakurai-san, let me take these manuscripts back to the editorial office!" Wubaiqitou saw that a box was full, so he stepped forward to pick it up, and then brought them to the editorial office. Department, distribute the boxes to the most basic assistant editors, "The drafts will be briefly reviewed by them, and those cartoons that are completely unqualified will be excluded first, and then other valuable drafts will be distributed to different editors according to different types.
"
Some of these editors are in charge of girl-themed manga, some are in charge of juvenile manga, and some are in charge of funny manga... Of course, not all of them adopt this model, and they can also distribute it immediately and submit it to senior editors for review.
"Well, the artist of this newcomer is very good, but the traces of imitating Tezuka-sensei are a bit too heavy. If you want to officially publish it, I am afraid it will not meet the standard, unless he changes the style of painting!" talking.
"Now there are imitations of Mr. Tezuka's works everywhere. There are too many similar works. It is really not easy to stand out!" Someone echoed.
"Excuse me, can I take a look at this?" Shen Long pointed to the manuscript that an editor had just finished, and Wubaiqitou hurried to communicate and brought it to Shen Long.
Then Shen Long handed this page to Nobi Nobita, "Nobita, have you seen it? The official manga editor's evaluation of a manuscript is not just a simple score. He has to write clearly about the advantages and disadvantages of this manuscript. Do predictive analytics so the editor-in-chief can have a clear view."
"Ah?" Daxiong started to catch mosquitoes again. He obviously didn't understand, but he just found it very difficult.
"The next thing we are going to visit is the reader feedback department. This department will carefully study the letters from readers, take back the reader opinion form, conduct statistical analysis on the data on the form, and decide which work should be promoted more vigorously and which work should be promoted. It should be cut in half!" Not all works published in manga magazines can be serialized to the end, and some readers think that the works are too bad, they must be cut in half, and then give the opportunity to other manga.
Comic magazines are not online websites, they have almost unlimited publishing space, even if no one reads the works, it will not affect anything, the layout of each issue is relatively limited, so it is necessary to make a choice.
"Actually, our editorial department often quarrels with the feedback department. Some works are relatively slow, but have great potential in the later stage. As long as they survive the initial difficult stage, readers will like these works, but the feedback department often only Look at the data, so we have to argue with them and try to keep those works with potential!" Wubaiqitou introduced.
Hearing this, Takuko Goda became even more nervous, while Nobi Nobita felt that the work of manga editing was more difficult. He drooped his head and followed behind Shen Long listlessly, but when he was reading those manga, there was a flash in his eyes. A gleam of color, if you can read comics every day, you must be very happy, right?
At the end of the visit, Wubai Banner presented them with gifts. For the boys like Nobita Nobita, the autographed booklet of Osamu Tezuka was given, and for Shizuka Minamoto and Tekko Goda, Riyoko Ikeda’s "The Rose of Versailles". This work was serialized two years ago, and now it has become a masterpiece as famous as "Doctor Black Jack".
"Wow, there is Mr. Ikeda's signature!" Although it is still difficult for girls of Minamoto Shizuka and Goda Tekko's age to understand the profound meaning of "The Rose of Versailles", those beautiful and beautiful The French court dress is enough to surprise them.
"This time I really trouble you!" Shen Long declined Wu Baiqitou's invitation to stay with them for dinner, and prepared to take these children home, "However, there is one more thing I want to trouble you for, I don't know if it is appropriate or not. !"
"Please just open your mouth." Wubaiqitou didn't dare to say no.
"Oh, I want this kid to come to your company for an internship for a period of time, so that he can experience the work of manga editing. I wonder if it is possible?" Shen Long pointed to Nobita Nobita and said.
Hey, isn't it possible to read new comics every day?
