My Cartoonist Strategy
Chapter 25 I want color pages
I noticed that everyone in the meeting room looked at me, and Yan Fan didn't say anything.
This work is related to whether Shen Xin will be valued by the magazine, and may even have an impact on his career as a cartoonist. To this end, Yan Wei must show self-confidence and decisiveness, as well as determination to win color pages.
Xiao Zhang said casually that when Yan Fan stood up from his seat, he suddenly became nervous.
"Snapped!"
Yan Fan put a copy of name in front of him.
""Y's"?" Xiao Zhang was puzzled when he saw the name in front of him.
It is really rare to use two English letters to make a comic book title.
Is this comic really reliable?
Xiao Zhang opened the name with doubt.
The first page of name is a girl in a sweater standing in front of the window.
Although it was just a pencil drawing and the background was not carefully drawn, the pure image of the girl jumped on the paper.
At first he thought it was just a cover page, but when he turned to the second page, he found that it was a picture of a girl's swimsuit, and there was a text description of the girl next to it.
As if he was not looking at the name, but a picture book.
Turning to the fourth page, when the actor closed the magazine, Xiao Zhang suddenly realized that the first four pages were not real albums, but the first few pages were part of the magazine itself.
Starting from this page, Xiao Zhang immersed himself in the name of "Y's", and turned to the last page, only to realize that the name was actually over.
"No?" Xiao Zhang looked at Yan Fan in surprise.
"No, you read three words in one breath, which is much better than me." Yan Wei sighed when she saw Xiao Zhang's unwillingness.
The content of the first two words is very attractive to readers.In the third episode, the contradiction between the male and female protagonists was not resolved, but a new crisis was added.
After seeing the fruit photos by ps, Iori shredded the photos with a smile, and her relationship with Yi Gui also dropped to a freezing point.
Because of the need to participate in the selection of school flowers, Iori went to take promotional photos after class, but Gu Jingya accidentally discovered that a camera was installed in the locker room.
Later, Yizhi was going to change clothes in a room with a camera, and Yi Gui on the other side immediately expressed anger after learning of the news.
Name ends here.
Next, will Iori be photographed by the camera, and what kind of reaction will Yi Gui have after learning about this matter?Knowing these answers can only wait until the fourth word.
Yan Wen understood Xiao Zhang's feeling very well. After reading the third remark, she wished to push the following story to the question, but she finally endured it.
She enjoys the dissolution of old contradictions and the emergence of new contradictions in this comic. If there are spoilers, it will be meaningless.
"What do you think of this name?" After reading it three or four times, the editor-in-chief also sobered up from the name, but his eyes were sparkling.
After working in this line for more than ten years, he still has eyesight to judge whether the work is good or bad.
Judging from the first three words, the quality of "Y's" is better than "Shaky", as long as there are no accidents, there should be good results.
With this work, "New World" does not say that it can turn over "Dreamer", but it should be possible to stop the decline of "New World".
Xiao Zhang's face is a bit ugly. Compared with "Y's", "I can meet you everywhere" really needs to be greatly improved.
However, a good work is a good work, even if he is dissatisfied with Yan Wei's heart, he will not speak with conscience.
"I...I don't think it's a problem, I have met the serialization requirement." Xiao Zhang said.
Other editors also nodded their heads. This quality manuscript, even in the weekly magazine Comic Futura,
"In this case, "Y's" is over. Now let's discuss Teacher Zhang's name."
"Wait a minute, editor in chief, I still have something to say." Yan Fan stood up from the seat.
"Y's" has been serialized, as she expected.Her main purpose is the next thing.
"What else?" the editor asked.
"Curly head coloring page! I think this name is totally worth the curling head coloring page!" Yan Fan took a deep breath and said aloud.
"What?" Xiao Zhang was amused when he heard Yan Wei's paintings. "Sister Yan, our magazine has never been a newcomer. I got the scroll color page in the first part of the series."
Yan Wei glanced at Xiao Zhang, did not speak, and his eyes quickly returned to the editor-in-chief.
"Editor-in-Chief, if we want to bring out the greatest charm of this comic, if our magazine wants to have its own signature comic, we must have a curling color page." Yan Wen is clear that she can't flinch at this time, even if she bites Put your teeth on top.
The editor-in-chief embraced his chest with his hands and fell into contemplation.
"I remember right, this author has only published a short article in our magazine, right? If you give him a color page so easily, what about other old authors?" A middle-aged editor objected.
Other editors nodded one after another.
They are not optimistic about this serial comic, but the resources of a magazine are very limited.
The head color is more eye-catching than the black and white pages, and the comics arranged in front of the magazine are easier to get the reader's favor than the comics behind the magazine.
Therefore, each editor is very nervous, will his author rank down due to lack of resources, and will be on the verge of being cut off.
"Have you read the first issue of Weekly Dreamer?" Yan Wei said as calmly as possible. "A magazine that tries to turn over, dare to put the newcomer's work on the front page of the magazine. We Why can't it be done?"
"That's because the original work of "Shattering" is Su Han." The middle-aged editor retorted.
"Do you think that this name is not as good as "Shattering"? Or is there another better name? Then come up and let us all judge together." Yan Wei asked.
"You..." The middle-aged editor patted the table hard, but couldn't find a reason to refute it.
Yan Fu didn't take care of the middle-aged editor, and continued: "The latest issue of Comic Futura, should you also read it? As a newcomer, although Ye Hexu didn't get the front page color page, he got the magazine cover. Other magazines can boldly recruit newcomers. Why are we not? The editor-in-chief, the current situation of our magazine is not very optimistic. I think you should know better than us?"
Throughout the conference room, the raven was silent, and the editors in the room had different expressions, reflecting the pros and cons.
"Sorry, I'm done with everything I want to say." Yan Fan bowed slightly and then sat down.
Now that the words have been made clear, there is no need to spend more words, otherwise it may be counterproductive.
"Cough, let me talk about my opinion." The deputy editor who has been watching the drama suddenly opened his eyes, but his eyes did not leave the name. "Just looking at the name, no matter the setting of the story, or the storyboard, composition, there are very High-level. And the author’s painter has also performed in the "Formula of Love", and the basic skills are still very solid. Considering that the comics start with the heroine’s photo, I think it is not too much to give the manga color pages to this comic. And we really need to bring out a new person who can carry the beam. However, he wants to roll the lottery, there will be two difficulties."
"What's the difficulty?" Yan Fan wrinkled, this thing would not be smooth sailing.
The curling page is really not so easy to get.
"His painter is okay, but drawing color pages is not the same as drawing black-and-white cartoons. How is his coloring level?"
"No problem." Yan Fan said firmly.
She has not seen Shen Xin painted, but she can't show hesitation now.Take off the curling color page first, as for Shen Xin's coloring level-I will talk about it later.
"The second question is difficult-if I remember correctly, the color pages for the next month have been divided. Editor-in-chief, what do you think about the arrangement?" The deputy editor turned his head to look at the editor.
