Chapter 371: Disadvantages of "Steel Refining"

"I think we should fight for it, otherwise, we will regret it."

After Shang Haozhi and Wang Wenhong left, the editor-in-chief and team leaders of "Youth Leap" sat around the conference table and continued to review "Smelting Steel".

Xiaogu has great confidence in "Steel Refining" and Shen Xin. After the meeting started, he gave his own evaluation.

Yasuda remained silent, clasping fingers with both hands.

Murakami looked at Kotani with a slightly wary look, for fear of being misled by him.

After seeing the first episode of "Steel Refining", Xiaogu had great expectations for "Steel Refining". Now that he has witnessed the setting, he appreciates "Steel Refining" even more.

If Xiaogu had the right to sign the contract, Murakami had no doubt that Xiaogu would immediately pick up a pen and write his name on the contract.

"What's the reason?"

Murakami will not make a decision based on the words of one or two people.

In addition to wanting to know everyone's attitude towards this comic, he also wants to know the reason.

"Does it need to be said?" Murakami coughed, "I know, many people will have a thought, if you can find a substitute in China, why borrow someone else's? Obviously the cost will be higher. But I don't think, " Can you find a substitute for the type of manga "Steel Refined"?"

"Needless to say much about Mr. Shen's painting skills, everyone has seen it. Even if it is "Youth Leap", how many cartoonists can compare with Mr. Shen? You can name it. When "Slam Dunk" first came out, I felt Teacher Yuchuan is no worse than Teacher Shen, but do you still think so now?

"Don't talk about the plot, nor the setting, just look at the painting skills. How much is the painting style of Mr. Shen in the first chapter of "Soul of Chess" different from the last chapter? Don't you need to say more? Although we are reading drafts, However, everyone has always seen the character design, so how is it compared with "Soul of Chess"? I think it is more mature.

"The setting of "Smelting Steel" is also good, such as alchemy and the gate of truth, I will not talk about it, and the settings such as mechanical armor, artificial man, and human pillar are also very innovative. In particular, these settings are not Existing independently, there is a great connection between each other. In addition, "Smelting Steel" is also good. In particular, the storyboard of character fighting is very smooth. If I were an ordinary reader, I would not be able to see it at all. Mr. Shen was drawing Realistic comics."

Xiao Gu said a lot in one breath, and Yasuda felt that his words were a bit exaggerated, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that Xiao Gu was right, "Smelting Steel" did have these characteristics.

"Leader Xiaogu, I know you like Mr. Shen's works very much, but you can't just mention the advantages and not the disadvantages."

The middle-aged man with short hair and a square face raised an objection.

Xiaogu frowned, and glanced at the speaker.

This person, like him, is the team leader of "Shounen Leap", Yasuo Nomura.

Murakami crossed his fingers and looked at Nomura expectantly, "What are your shortcomings, tell me? Let's discuss together."

Nomura nodded, "This is a bloody adventure manga, so it should be right?"

The people sitting there nodded their heads.

"Team leader Xiao Gu made a point just now, and he is right. Judging from the previous few words, Mr. Shen really doesn't look like a novice in adventure comics. Those fighting storyboards are better than many cartoonists, but they are only limited to storyboards. Everyone Maybe you still have doubts about my words, please think back to the setting of "Smelting Steel". For an adventure comic, "Smelting Steel" lacks a very critical link, it does not have a complete power system!"

Power system! ?

This word immediately appeared in other people's minds.

Yasuda Chi nodded again and again, "That's right. I just said that something seems to be missing. "Steel Refining" lacks a complete power system."

Part of the power system is to classify different roles according to their strength.

"Just like ninjas, there are lower ninja, middle ninja, and upper ninja. Without considering 'leapfrogging', the middle ninja is stronger than the lower ninja, and the upper ninja is stronger than the middle ninja.

"In order to ensure that the strength of each character is not disordered during the story, the cartoonist must divide the strength of the characters.

In the end, the level of the boss must be max, and the protagonist will also have different degrees of level improvement as the story unfolds, which is also the default routine of everyone.

"Steel Refining doesn't have these... Just like Scar, the character design says that he killed many national alchemists. So, I want to ask why other national alchemists can't kill him? His strength, in the whole What is the level in this comic? How is the protagonist stronger than him? If I were a reader, how should I judge their strength? More importantly, if there is no complete power system, how can readers objectively Feel the progress of the protagonist? Is such a manga still considered a kingly manga?"

Faced with Nomura's aggressive questioning, Xiao Gu was at a loss for words.

He has always been fascinated by the setting of "Smelting Steel", but he just forgot the power system.

In the later stages of Wangdao comics, if there is a collapse, the power system is most likely to collapse.

If the protagonist upgrades too slowly, the rhythm will be dragged down, and the plot will not burn; if the upgrade is too fast, in the middle stage, the protagonist will be invincible, and the subsequent plot will not progress.

Generally speaking, when the protagonist upgrades, it has to be linked to the plot, which is what the editor cares more about.

"Smelting Steel" does not have this kind of division.

Shen Xin may have forgotten, but the possibility of this is extremely slim.

Complicated settings can be made, and the division of power is impossible.

If it doesn't work, there is still the simplest division, such as B, A, S, and SS.

Or, the same national alchemist can also be divided into bronze, silver, gold and so on according to different strengths.

However, in the setting and background, this piece of content is not involved at all.

This shows that all national alchemists are of the same level, there is no distinction between superior and inferior.

"I'm afraid... Mr. Shen has never thought of grading, right? Of course, the higher the strength, the stronger the ability, but an outstanding person cannot only have strength, but also..." The middle-aged man with messy hair suddenly said , pointing to his temple, "intelligence."

Murakami glanced at the deputy editor-in-chief Ayumi Nishida, and snapped his fingers, "So, how do you reflect the progress of the protagonist?"

"Isn't there still a 'door'?" Xi Tian asked back.

"Eh?"

Others forgot about the "door".

"Mr. Shen wrote very clearly that when you open the 'door', you can see the truth. According to the 'equivalence exchange', since you want to lose part of your body, you will also get part of the door. What is this part? I I think this may be the key. To be honest, I think everyone reads this comic too simply-since it involves life, the content will not be easy.

"As for how to reflect the progress of the protagonist... In fact, in the first chapter, Edward also said that an alchemist is a scientist, and the level of a scientist's achievements should not be divided by force, but by the improvement of wisdom. If the progress of the story is similar to my idea, I think this comic has the value of simultaneous serialization."

Ayumi Nishida took the lead in expressing his views.
