Chapter 397 Serial Meeting
"This work is serialized, Hook, please follow up this comic, especially with more reservations in the setting, the plot should be more interesting. However, there may be a change in the follow-up, so the protagonist in the design There is room for change in the decision, don't tell the protagonist's force value, so as to leave room for the later plot." Shang Haozhi reminded.
"Actually, the protagonist has strength. After all, the restaurant is near the Valley of Warcraft. Sometimes, the protagonist will go into the valley to find ingredients. It's just that these settings have no specific words, so they haven't been submitted." Hook explained.
"That's good. The next one is..." Shang Haozhi looked at the others.
"Teacher Zuo Yuan." Li Junwen said hastily.
Responsible editors have no right to participate in the serial meeting, so they will ask the team leader to speak for them at the meeting.
Since serial works are generally limited to 2-4 works, the number of selected places will be very tight, and the team leaders also have to debate among themselves to add more places for authors in their own group.
Shi Yan is an old author, so there is nothing he can do about it, but the other team leaders will indeed be stricter when dealing with Teacher Zuo Yuan's works.
"Mr. Zuo Yuan is the author of Xu Jie in our group. He has published two short comics before, one is "Mountain God" and the other is "Jade Soul". From the above, it can be seen that Mr. Zuo Yuan is good at some ghosts and gods. .Moreover, compared with these two comics, their progress is very large.
""Mountain God" only ranks second in short comics, while "Jade Soul" is ranked first, even more popular than some old authors who rank lower. This is Teacher Zuo's new work, called "The Diary of a Middle School Student", the protagonist is a student who has just entered the first grade of junior high school. He has the ability to talk to the soul and uses this ability to go on an adventure. Of course, the stories here also refer to folklore, and The school 'incredible incident'. I think the story is still very good."
Li Junwen breathed out the words he had prepared.
The others read the name while listening to Li Junwen's explanation.
"Using folklore and 'uncanny events',
Combining with comics, it is indeed very interesting. Since the author is not young, his narrative style is relatively calm, so the narrative of the story is relatively flat, and I don’t know this style. be accepted by readers. "Speaking of which, Hook glanced at Shang Haozhi.
No matter what he thinks, Shang Haozhi still needs to make a final decision.
"Strictly speaking, this type of subject matter is relatively rare in our magazine. At the same time, the cartoonist's style of painting is more inclined to write, using simple lines to outline the story. Judging from his previous works, he The ability to play up the climax is still lacking. Considering that he is a single father and has a young daughter, I suggest entering the next round temporarily." Zeng Yue said.
The so-called "entering the next round" is to screen the works first, select the pending works, and then conduct a second evaluation on the promoted works after reading all the comics.
"Well... that's fine. Go to the next round first." Shang Haozhi put name to one side.
Outside the door of a rental house.
A young man held a food bag in one hand and a little girl's hand in the other.
"Baby, help Dad hold it first." The young man said softly to the little girl.
"Um."
The little girl nodded repeatedly, and took the food bag from the young man with both hands.
It contains her favorite snacks, so lift the grocery bag extra hard.
When the young man saw the excited little girl, he felt sorry for the little girl.
These are foods that are about to expire, so the price is cheaper than other snacks.
Thinking of this, his heart was filled with self-blame and guilt.
He is a father, but he can't meet his daughter's normal material needs. It is indeed a failure. What makes him even more troubled is that the manuscript fee is almost gone, and he can persist for another month at most.
a month...
Opening the door, the young man took the food bag from the little girl's hand again, took the little girl's hand, and entered the room.
The light in the house is a bit dim, one bedroom and one living room, the daughter lives in the bedroom, and the living room is divided into two areas by the young man, the studio and the sleeping place.
Taking the snacks out of the grocery bag, the young man put the bought rice and vegetables back into the kitchen, grabbed two handfuls of rice, and prepared to cook.
At this moment, the cell phone in his pocket rang suddenly.
The landline number of "comic future"!
The young man took out his mobile phone, and his heart beat suddenly when he saw this name.
Was it overdue... or not?
The young man took a deep breath, and finally pressed the connected phone. There was a noisy voice from the microphone, but no one spoke.
"……Hello……"
"Hello, Teacher Zuo?"
"Ah... I am." The young man replied quickly.
"Congratulations, Mr. Zuo Yuan... the 50th serialization." Xu Jie said excitedly.
The 50th issue of "Steel Refining" is closed, which is an excellent opportunity for the newly serialized comics, and the ranking can be steadily improved by one.
"Serialization?" Zuo Yuan opened his mouth slightly, his mind went blank.
"That's right, wait a minute, I'll bring the contract over, wait a minute."
"Please... no, thank you." Zuo Yuan was a little incoherent.
"This is what I should do."
After Zuo Yuan hung up the phone, he rushed out of the kitchen, saw his daughter holding a broom and was about to clean up, ran over and hugged her in his arms.
"We've got money...we've got money."
Even without royalties, they can get out of their current situation with only manuscript fees and contract money.
"Dad...don't cry..."
Hearing his daughter's milky voice, Zuo Yuan realized that he had shed tears just now.
"It's okay... Dad is happy." Zuo Yuan didn't wipe away his tears, but murmured while hugging his daughter.
...
The results of "The Legend of the Dragon King" are still stable, and "Steel Refined" is hotly catching up behind it. The gap between the two comics is only less than 50 votes.
"Hunting Abyss" followed the two comics, and it also maintained a gap of 40 to 50 votes from "Game", which ranked fourth.
Shen Xin was already mentally prepared for this situation.
Of course, there is nothing to say about the overall quality of "Steel Refining", but so far, it is less than 20 words. Compared with "The Legend of the Dragon King", which has been serialized for more than ten years, it is still a little less popular. If the animation comes out, the effect may be the same. It's different.
However, Shen Xin was not in a hurry.
Instead of looking forward to animation production, it is better to draw the manga first.
The two animations of the original version of "Steel Refining" are both produced by Bone Society, and the quality is top-notch.
Needless to say, "Steel Refined Fa" is basically the benchmark in the animation industry. The only shortcoming is that in order to speed up the pace, some plots were cut, and "Steel Refined" was cut and modified to a certain extent.
As for "Steel Refining O3", since the manga hadn't been serialized for a long time during production, the production company could only dig out existing plots, such as synthesizing beasts, such as equivalent exchange, and even Yao Lin and Zhang Mei from Xingguo didn't come out—this The importance of the two characters is no less than that of Colonel Roy.
Even so, "Steel Refining O3" is still a rare and successful work, and it is also the signature work of Bones Club.
