My Cartoonist Strategy
Chapter 15 Chen Zijiao and his comics
After saying goodbye to Xi Mumo, Shen Xin went to many bookstores and found no "Dreamer". In desperation, Shen Xin could only go to Starbucks and wait for Yan Wei to come over.
Just found an empty place to sit down, ordered a cup of coffee, Yan Fan pushed the door in, looked around for a week, found Shen Xin sitting in the corner, and quickly came over.
Yan Wei was sweaty and her face was flushed, and she was just as surprised as she was.
She first asked for a glass of ice water, and then she had the strength to speak.
"Sister Yan, have you bought the "Daimer"?" Shen Xin looked at Yan Wei expectantly.
"No." Yan Fan shook his head. "But when a colleague bought it, I borrowed it and used it first."
Thinking of this, Yan Wei was so angry that she strolled all two or three bookstores nearby and found out that "Dreamer" was sold out. When she returned to the editorial department and complained, Xiaoli had already bought the magazine in advance. A sense of loss.
"Can I have a look first?" Shen Xin hurriedly said, "I also ran a lot of bookstores, but I didn't buy them."
"It seems that the revision of "Dreamer" has been a great success." Yan Wei took out the revised "Dreamer" from her shoulder bag and handed it to Shen Xin.
Shen Xin already knew that Chen Zijiao's comics were on the "Curly Head Coloring Page" beforehand, and opened the magazine directly.
The title page is a revised message, followed by the catalog, and then turned back, it is a comic drawn by Chen Zijiao.
""Shattering"?" Shen Xin blushed when he saw the title of the book.
The name...is awkward to read.
"I heard that this comic was not originally the name. Chen Zijiao was not satisfied, so he changed it to "Shaky"," Yan Wan explained.
Xiaoli still told her the news.
"Who is Su Han?" Shen Xin looked at the original name again, puzzled.
"She? The most marketable reasoning writer now, and still a big beauty, you don't even know?" Yan Wei surprised.
Shen Xin shook his head, the host did not mix the novel circle, unless it is a well-known big writer known to everyone, often the kind of news, otherwise, it is completely unimpressed.
"Since she is so famous, why agree with Chen Zijiao to change the name of the work?" Shen Xin still puzzled.
The more famous authors, the more they should care about their works.
Is Su Han a good speaker?
"Should it be too busy?" Yan Fan speculated.
Shen Xin was unclear, but he still lowered his head, and his eyes fell on the cover page of the comic again.
"'Long Xishui' is Chen Zijiao's pen name?" Shen Xin's eyelids jumped, and the pen name was not dripping, which was comparable to the second grade of "Shaky Fall".To be honest, the style of the pen name is far from "Shui Jinglong".
"Otherwise what do you think?" Yan Fan also shook his head, feeling helpless.
From the point of name, it can be judged that Chen Zijiao's literary attainment is not good.
The cover page of the comic is a young man wearing a white robe and long silver hair, standing on the side, with his forehead slightly raised, holding the peach blossom flying in the air with one hand, and carrying it behind his back with one hand, giving a feeling of flirtatiousness; and A girl wearing a blue school uniform was slightly bent, holding down the skirt of the short skirt that was about to rise with the wind, but even then, the skirt behind was still blown by the wind.
If you are an ordinary painter, drawing such a picture may not have anything special, but after all, Chen Zijiao has painted 18r, and his strength has been recognized by Wang Wenhong. Full of temptation, the full upper body tightly supported the clothes, while attracting the readers, and also making them curious about the scenery under the skirt.
In addition to the role full of temptation, Chen Zijiao's coloring also surprised Shen Xin.
An excellent cartoonist,
But the color of Chen Zijiao is different.
The two characters are ancient and modern, but they are very particular about color.
The coloring of men and peach blossoms is similar to watercolors, with a sense of rendering, but girls are not, the colors are thicker and more detailed, the highlights of clothes and hair are drawn very finely, and some details, such as the folds of the clothes , Also dealt with just right.
What is even more commendable is that although the two characters have different coloring styles, the color transition is very natural. Shen Xin asked himself that he can't do this now.
"Sister Yan..."
"Ok?"
"Isn't Su Han a reasoning writer?"
"Yes."
"But this one... doesn't look like a reasoning comic."
Whether from the title of the book or the composition of the cover page, it has nothing to do with reasoning.Judging by the level of his third-rate novelist... This comic is a bit like romance, and it is still the kind of crossing.
"Really not, as for why she wrote this story, perhaps only Su Han himself knew." Yan Wan explained.
Shen Xin nodded slightly.
The success or failure of the comics is still to the extent that the story is accepted by the readers, which has nothing to do with the reputation of the original work.
Even a best-selling author, if you can’t write an interesting script, readers won’t buy it.
Turning over the cover page, the story told by the comics will come out.
As Shen Xin guessed, this story does have a background of traversal, but it is an anti-traversal. In short, it is a knight from ancient times, traversing to the real world.
In Shen Xin's view, this type of story does not have much newness. He has seen too much content of this theme, or "traversing" this theme has been ruined by online novels, there are really This kind of feeling of "wearing in a row and wearing in a row, wearing constantly".
But the transit of this world is mainly based on the protagonist to the different world. Occasionally, a few reverse penetrations are also the different world to the real world, rarely seen from ancient to modern.
The beginning of the story is a duel between two knights.The white robe warrior walked into the girl's closet at the moment he was stabbed by the long sword.He struggled to come out of the closet, with fat ci and inner yi on his body, just to meet the hostess who had just taken a shower, and the story began.
The male master without common sense was shocked when he saw the shiny light bulb, thinking that it was the enemy who used his internal power to make the light bulb shine; he was also very surprised when he saw the hair dryer, but he couldn’t find the root of the hair dryer. Inner power, the bath towel that wrapped the body of the hostess was also scraped away, giving readers a lot of "welfare".
"Shaky", um... veritable.
The first part of the story is full of 50 pages. Shen Xin finished reading the first part in one breath without feeling tired. Then he raised his head and sighed, his expression somewhat helpless.
"How is it?" Yan Fan asked quickly.
"It is an excellent cartoon, and the cooperation between the two is perfect." Shen Xin said truthfully.
"Why?" Yan Fan wanted to know Shen Xin's opinion.
"The conflict between authenticity and seriousness brought unexpected surprises." Shen Xin pondered a little and gave an answer.
Yan Wei recalled what Shen Xin said, and could not help but nod. Shen Xin said a word and pointed out the most attractive part of the story.
The vulgar and conservative ancient knight traversed into the present world, and showed confusion in the face of technology far beyond his imagination.
The more seriously he raises doubts, the more he can make people laugh, and the heroine is also a conservative girl, but he often feels helpless in the face of the actor who does not understand anything. Several of the dew points show that Chen Zijiao's talent in drawing fruit bodies, and the "violent" image of the heroine in the subsequent division form a sharp contrast with his conservative character.
A work has a sense of humor, flesh and anticipation at the same time. Such a work really makes people want to stop.
Chen Zijiao...and the author named Su Han, really great.
