Chapter 1039 Substitution
After hearing Shen Xin's suggestion, Ji Yinxuan also began to think about the version issue.
In May next year, there will be a game exhibition in China, and "Steins;Gate" will definitely participate in the exhibition, and even if Magi won the production rights of "Steins;Gate", it is a new company after all, and there are very few works that can be produced Few, and even less likely to be well-known by players and become the focus like some big companies—such as Zhenyu, whose company name is an advertisement. Therefore, it is likely to be left out in the early stage.
Fortunately, the novels and comics of "Stones;Gate" have already been promoted, so that this game has accumulated a certain amount of popularity, which is considered an advantage. Versions in other languages are trying to expand the sales of the game. However, games like "Steins;Gate" have relatively large text, so the cost of translation will not be too low, and it will be time-consuming.
But if it can really increase sales, such a price is obviously worth it.
However, before that, Magi still has to finish the game of "Steins;Gate".
Xi Muhan has also been very busy in the past month. After she decided to take apart a comic, she has not been idle.
At the beginning of the creation of a work, there must be a conception, otherwise, like water without a source and a tree without roots, the author feels that there is no focus when creating, and the readers will feel scattered when reading.
If it is a daily work, the story structure is not tight, so the problem will not be too big, but for an evil manga, a loose story is simply a big taboo-in order to compete with other kingly manga, evil manga must always attract readers.
After Xi Muhan decided to extend the plot of the new work based on the first chapter, he really put a lot of effort into writing the script.
When it comes to evil comics, one comic that cannot be avoided is "DN", but Shen Xin didn't let her read it, nor let her use it as a reference, so as not to mess up her train of thought, she just let her watch some movies or documentaries, at most some suspense novel.
In fact, whether it is "DN", "As the Gods Said", or "The Promised Neverland" with the color of evil comics, there is a clear difference between this type of comics and detective comics or novels .
For example, like "Kindaichi Juvenile Case Book", its difficulty lies in how to design the modus operandi, how to create new ideas if the "secret room murder" plot is used, and how to establish the murderer's alibi, these are all creations are important considerations.
That is to say, the author is "designing" the story. The most typical case is the "Liujiao Village Incident", and the technique at that time was very clever.
Going back to the common evil comics, there are also plots, but the difference from detective comics is that the rules and plots will be told to readers in advance. For example, "DN", from the first chapter, readers know the existence of DN; another example is "Gambling Apocalypse", various game rules, such as "rock, scissors, paper", such as E card games, the rules will be told to readers in advance , Therefore, the focus of comics is not to design plots, but to "fight", to fight against rules, but more to "fight with wisdom" with different people, and to emphasize logic.
Of course, this situation is not 100%, like "Stones Gate", the result of the event tells you-the death of Mayuri-then the protagonist and the reader work together to unravel the whole mystery.
Going back to "The Girl Who Crossed Parallel Worlds", the best way is to unravel the mystery of the whole story similar to "Steins;Gate", but unlike "Steins;Gate", the biggest advantage of "The Girl Who Crossed the Parallel World" is to enter the title It is faster and easier to attract readers. The disadvantage brought about by this is that it is precisely because of the quick entry into the topic that the story is not well prepared. Therefore, Xi Muhan wants to add this type of setting in the follow-up plot.
In addition, in Shen Xin's view, there is one biggest difference between "Stones;Gate" and "The Girl Who Traveled". Rintaro Okabe can travel repeatedly to correct the true and reasonable world line. re: Life in a different world from scratch, "Happy Death Day" and other works, also advance events through multiple time travels/backfiles, but "Time Traveling Girl" does not have so many time travels.
To advance the plot, the story must have contradictions, but under the premise that it cannot be traversed repeatedly, how to create contradictions has become a highlight, and this is what Shen Xin is most concerned about.
After washing up, the two of them prepared to rest. Before turning off the lights, Shen Xin also raised this question.
Xi Muhan dried his hair with a hair dryer, turned around and looked at Shen Xin with a smug expression on his face, "Of course there are contradictions. Brother, do you know the butterfly effect?"
"En." Shen Xin nodded.
The so-called butterfly effect is that a small event may lead to a huge chain reaction.
"After the heroine travels through, the parallel world has actually been affected. Coupled with the death of classmate Wang He, a series of events related to Wang He will change, which conflicts with the memory of the heroine. This conflict points to Wang He's death, which advances the plot."
"The difference between the two worlds?" Shen Xin was taken aback, this is a good starting point, "But there is a problem with the sense of substitution, readers don't know what changes Wang He's departure has brought to this world."
"I think this way. The heroine travels forward for a week or two. Then, through the difference between whether Wang He exists or not in these two weeks, find the contradiction. On the one hand, the heroine finds the reason for Wang He's death, and on the other hand Find a way to travel to the previous world." Xi Muhan obviously also considered this issue.
Shen Xin rubbed her chin and frowned, "This way the rhythm will be slow, and the sense of substitution may be poor."
"Um?"
"Didn't you notice? The structure of your story is actually somewhat similar to "Stones Gate", and you have to use the previous plot to take over. The difference is that "The Girl Through Time" enters the title faster than "Stone Gate", and "Stone Gate" "Because it needs to be foreshadowing, the plot will only usher in a magical turning point when the plot reaches 1/2, and because there is a lot of foreshadowing in front, readers will have a sense of substitution when they see the follow-up plot. The question is too fast, readers don't know what happened in the past week or two. When you bring up a contradiction, readers will be at a loss." Shen Xin was a little worried.
Xi Muhan frowned, recalling the entire plot in his mind, and also realized that if he really wanted to advance like this, there would indeed be a problem with the sense of substitution.
If it cannot resonate with readers, the impact on readers will be greatly reduced.
"Then what should we do?" Xi Muhan scratched his head, suddenly feeling a little irritable in his heart.
If her goal is only to serialize, the current imagination should be enough, but her goal is obviously more than that.
Shen Xin sighed, if he wanted to find a solution in a short time, it seemed...it would not be easy.
