Chapter 710 Plot and Choice

Whether to let the protagonist suffer setbacks is indeed the reason why many authors have difficulty making choices.

The reason is because this decision will affect the performance of the manga.

After all, comics are commercial creations. If the author wants to make money, the work must be recognized by readers.

When it comes to creation, many authors say that they want to create an ideal comic. However, many authors rarely have firm convictions in the face of this situation.

What they want to create in their hearts may even be far from the works that are actually displayed in front of readers.

Why?

Cartoonists are gamblers. If they want to win the game, they must cater to the preferences of readers.

This is also why, when a work becomes popular, other works will follow suit, and no matter how bad it is, they will put popular plots in other works in their own works to gain more readers' favor.

It may sound a little tricky, but this is commercial creation in order to maximize the value of the work.

Whether the protagonist suffers setbacks happens to be one of the factors that affect the performance of the work.

In the minds of many authors, they really want the protagonist to suffer setbacks. In this process, the author will move himself when creating, and in addition, the subsequent plots will be handled better.

Although there are no statistics, many authors have a consensus that works that allow the protagonist to enjoy more "protagonist aura" will generally have better results.

"I recommend……"

Yan Fei took a deep breath, now the momentum is good, any operation will affect the performance of the work.

"I suggest, win?"

After saying these two words, Yan Fei was still uneasy, but in her opinion, this was the best choice.

"But I think that if you want to make your work better, setbacks are also necessary. Just like "Soul of Chess", if Zuo Wei hadn't left, there wouldn't be so many readers. Have you always been obsessed with "Soul of Chess?" Xi Muhan proposed own opinion.

"You are right. However, juvenile comics are different from your previous creations. Different readers have different tolerance limits for different works. To be honest, in terms of this plot alone, you have not Ability to do well." Yan Fei sighed.

Xi Muhan opened his mouth slightly, unconvinced, and looked back at Shen Xin, "Brother Xin, do you think so too?"

"I?"

The workload of "DN" has never been greater, and "Y's" is about to lead to one of the most exciting scenes in the entire comic, he really has no time for others.

That is to say, Shen Xin didn't watch "Ding Shi" recently.

However, Xi Muhan's eyes were full of anticipation, and Shen Xin couldn't bear to let Xi Muhan down, so she could only explain it in general.

"Comics... or any kind of work, will not prevent the protagonist from suffering setbacks. A truly excellent comic can have a heart-wrenching plot."

These are Shen Xin's sincere words.

In "One Piece", compared to those funny scenes, readers are more likely to remember the past of Nami, Robin, Zorro, Sanji, etc., and it is easier to remember the "Battle on the Top", Whitebeard and The scene of Ace exiting the stage of "Pirate" is also printed in the memory of "Pirate" fans.

In "Slam Dunk", Xiangbei defeated Sanno Industry, the three-time national league champion, but fell in front of Aihe Academy in the next round. While readers felt sorry, this comic became an eternal classic.

Not to mention "touch", when Uesugi Kazuya was also going to the competition, he was involved in a car accident because he was saving a child. So far, the only two protagonists in the early stage are his brother Uesugi Tatsuya. Uesugi Tatsuya had to shoulder the responsibility of Kazuya, and led the school's baseball team into Koshien.

These three comics are among the top three in the average sales of single volumes in the 11 districts. Even "touch", which ranks third, has sold more than 3.8 million copies in a single volume, more than 300,000 copies more than "Dragon Ball".

In a classic, there is a scene that resonates.

"Then I..."

"I heard that when you have finished speaking,

Whether the protagonist will lose depends not on your current thoughts, but on the growth of the plot and characters, and what you want to convey to the readers. If the protagonist is stronger than the opponent, or is equal to the opponent, and you let the protagonist lose the game, do you think readers will be convinced? Can you convince yourself and your readers?

"On the contrary, if the opponent is stronger than the protagonist, then it is reasonable for the protagonist to lose the game; you can also carefully design the plot so that the protagonist can use his own characteristics to win the opponent. This plot is a surprise, and it can ignite the passion in their hearts. Setbacks are not impossible to write, but after the protagonist fails, you have to let the readers see the protagonist's harvest and the "hope" of catching up with the opponent.

"So, the best plot is to let the characters advance the story, rather than the author deliberately creating the plot, which will make the plot very blunt." Shen Xin took a deep breath, "I think you should create an evenly matched opponent, so Only Sister Yan would say, now you still can’t draw the plot in your heart, right? In other words, you still don’t know how to choose. You can discuss it with Sister Yan again, this is also a tempering. "

It is also the death of an important character in the play, "touch" can become a classic, but "Feng Xia" feeds poison to readers. Similar plots, different results, this is the author's gap.

Some seemingly inappropriate plots are not impossible to draw, but depends on how the author operates.

After some words, Shen Xin's mouth was dry, and he was not sure if Xi Muhan could listen.

Sometimes, many authors do not understand these principles, but cannot do them.

Xi Muhan pouted, but still nodded. Yan Fei gave Shen Xin a thumbs up, jokingly said, "Mr. Shen, you can run a school now."

"I think I can be an editor." Shen Xin also laughed.

"Don't make trouble, do you think any magazine can afford you?" Yan Fei smiled wryly.

Shen Xin shrugged, "You didn't invite me, it's not that I didn't tell you."

"Of course we don't invite you to be the editor, who will draw "DN"." Yan Fei shook her head and said, "By the way, "Y's"... Yi Zhi and Yi Gui will graduate from high school soon, will the story end?"

"The end?" Shen Xin was taken aback, and asked back, "When do you think it's better for "Y's" to end?"

"Hearing what you said, it means that "Y's" should have a follow-up plot... Actually, I'm still looking forward to it."

"What are you expecting?" Shen Xin asked puzzled.

"Most of the romance comics are over when they graduate from high school. I want to see what kind of development they will have after high school."

The plot after high school graduation?

"I'm looking forward to it too." Shen Xin smiled.
