Chapter 931 Uematsuno and "The Gate of Eternal Life"

Yan Fei carried the "Gate of Eternal Life" she bought upstairs, and asked the door of the studio to move the book to the elevator.

"Gate of Eternal Life" has been serialized for 14 years, and the magazine has published 60 volumes.

Wang Wenhong and his assistants moved 60 volumes of comics into the office one after another, and Shen Xin also took the opportunity to come to the assistants' work area.

"Is this too much?" Xi Muhan blinked her eyes, she rarely saw so many separate volumes published for a comic, "Will the following story collapse?"

"It's hard to say." Shen Xin shook her head.

According to common sense, the longer the story, the greater the possibility of collapse.

It is difficult to keep a work within a reasonable range without revision.

This difficulty comes from many aspects.

For example, weekly comics squeeze out the cartoonist's rest time. In an emergency, the cartoonist's weekly rest time may only be more than ten hours.

Under such high-intensity work, sometimes the works do appear to be difficult to justify and even contradictory.

In contrast, monthly magazines are much more friendly to cartoonists, and authors will have time to improve the structure of their works.

However, there are exceptions, such as "Pirate", although it has been serialized to more than 90 volumes, its structure is even better than some manga with more than 30 volumes. And it also has some bugs, the most famous is that the red-haired Shanks, who is the "Four Emperors", was bitten off his arm.

Of course, these bugs are nothing in front of Wannian elementary school students.

"'Gate of Eternal Life'..."

Shouldn't it be the same?

Shen Xin picked up the booklet of the first volume of "The Gate of Eternal Life", and opened the cover.

The title of "Gate of Eternal Life" should represent the core of the entire comic, which is similar to "Dragon Ball" and "Pirate". In China, there are also some similar works, such as "The King of Rock and Roll".

This type of comics often puts forward content related to the title of the book in the first chapter.

In "Dragon Ball", after Bulma and Monkey King met, they mentioned Dragon Ball and Shenlong; Lu Fei also proposed "I want to be One Piece" in the first chapter of "One Piece".

In the same way, "The Gate of Eternal Life" is the focus of this comic, but when Shen Xin actually opened this comic, he realized that it was different from ordinary comics.

The ways in which the 11th District comics make up the world are actually very similar. There are two most common types. One is to make up a world related to reality, such as "Reaper" and "Yu Yu Hakusho". demon world. The other category is completely fictional, and most of them are based on Western backgrounds—at least, the titles are Western, such as "Fairy Tail", "Steel Steel", "Black Clover", "The Exorcist Boy" and so on.

At this point, "The Gate of Eternal Life" fully inherits these characteristics, and Uematsuno also erects a new world, and the background is more inclined to the late Middle Ages.

The original setting of the story is also very common. Anyone who finds the "gate of eternal life" has obtained eternal life. However, there are two "gates of eternal life" in this world. One can truly obtain eternal life, and time cannot Carve a brand on its body, and the fake "gate of eternal life" can give people eternal life, but the body will age with the passage of time, and will always maintain the appearance of aging.

No matter how many doors are found, a person can only enter one in a lifetime. These are the settings related to the "Gate of Eternal Life".

At the same time, the story also sets two types of people, one is ordinary people, and the other has superpowers. After the superpowers die, their superpowers will not disappear, but can be attached to weapons or ordinary human bodies to achieve the same effect. And those who have gained eternal life, once they are killed, their eternal life will also be taken away by others.

As the story progresses, these settings are thrown out one by one, and readers are more like RPG players, following the protagonist, slowly contacting and discovering this strange world.

The protagonist's adventure is not all because of the "Gate of Eternal Life". In addition to this goal,

There is also a superpower attached to him, and he wants to find the owner of this superpower...

"The direction of the story is so exciting." Xi Muhan expressed emotion after reading one of the volumes.

A sense of expectation, a word that is often mentioned on the Internet, appears in this comic.

Considering that this is one of the top serial comics in District 11, it is only natural that readers will have a sense of anticipation.

"The story is really good." Shen Xin quickly flipped through the first volume, and re-examined the storyboard and composition of the comics the second time.

"The teacher said that Mr. Uedamatsu's advantage lies in the macro scene, especially in the later period of the manga. After Mr. Uematsu's style matured, many double-page spreads are amazing, and the pictures are detailed, which is similar to Mr. Shen's manga. But there are Not as good as Teacher Shen at all." Asai Hui explained.

Shen Xin scratched her head when she heard the translation.

It's still a little uncomfortable to be said so, especially when the object of comparison with him is a leading manga artist like Uematsuno.

"Mr. Shan'an is talking about dynamic storyboards, right?" Shen Xin knew what Asai Hui meant.

In fact, Uematsuno’s level of storyboarding is already good enough, and since Shen Xin has three manga capsules, one of which is the experience of an earth manga artist, coupled with the capsule that speeds up his practice, he has a large share in storyboarding. Advantage.

Asai Hui nodded silently after hearing Yan Fei's translation.

""Gate of Eternal Life" has been serialized for 60 volumes. It should be almost finished, right? Maybe we have no competition with them?" Wang Wenhong also read two volumes and found it interesting.

"Three years ago, Mr. Uematsu said that the progress of the manga had reached 80%." Asai Hui said.

"Look? "Gate of Eternal Life" is at most three or four years away." Wang Wenhong said with a smile.

"But five years ago, when Mr. Uematsu was interviewed, he also said that 80% of the painting had been done."

"..."

The smile on Wang Wenhong's face froze instantly.

This...how is it not worth talking?

"Eh?" The muscles on Shen Xin's face also twitched twice, as if he had heard this saying before.

But after thinking about it, Shen Xin can also understand Uematsuno's words.

The length of the work is sometimes difficult for the author to control, especially for works that are serialized while updating.

Shen Xin also encountered this situation many times when she was an online author. Whenever she announced to readers how many days were left, the real time was often delayed.

Some Internet authors wrote in the article that it will end immediately, however, the last chapter is two years later.

What's more, for a cash cow like "The Gate of Eternal Life", the magazine is reluctant to let it end.

"It seems that I have been busy these few days." Shen Xin looked at the stacked booklets and shook her head helplessly.

Only after watching "The Gate of Eternal Life" can you know the depth of "Youth Leap".

He is very confident in "News", but he also needs to pay attention to his competitors.
