My Cartoonist Guide

Chapter 144: Gradually clear

Netizens don't care about Ye Hexu's true thoughts.

The competition for the newcomer award is already in a fierce stage. Even if the netizens don't add much energy, each author is in a state of tension.

The release of Ye Hexu's new book and Weibo added a layer of hot oil to this tense atmosphere.

"Teacher, what should I do?"

Gao Hang was sweating coldly with two dark circles under his eyes.

Shen Xin also shrugged helplessly, "cold."

Ye Hexu's explanation is true or false, but it doesn't really matter. The reality is that "Y\'s" and "Hunting Abyss" will definitely influence each other.

The comics of "Hunting Abyss" are still on the air, and there are three remaining episodes, which are the most essential part of a fan drama. After watching two episodes, Shen Xin felt enthusiastic, not to mention other animation enthusiasts.

The sales of "Hunting Abyss" has soared all the way, and it is also closely related to the high-level production of animation, which successfully drove the sales of "Together".

The situation of "Y\'s" is also very good.

The peak duel of fan comics brought "NewWorld" extremely high popularity. The magazine's sales exceeded 110 copies at one time. This allowed Song Tai to see the hope of the magazine's rise. However, after the championship came into being, the sales of "NewWorld" fell back again. 950,000 copies.

With this competition, "Y\'s" has always maintained a good popularity, and long reviews related to "Y's" have emerged one after another, and even analysis posts have appeared to discuss the final direction of each female character.

Although the sales volume of "Y\'s" has been surpassed by "Hunting Abyss", the readership is extremely high, with 300,000 voters every day. Therefore, "Hunting Abyss" has not been able to pull off and "Y\'s". "difference.

This time, two books have been released one after another, and it is hard not to make others think about it.

"How is your work?" Shen Xin asked Xiang Lu Ning.

Lu Ning took a deep breath and twisted her neck. "There are three pages of manuscript to be completed... Gao Hang, where's your side?"

"Me? I may have two more days..." Gao Hang said nervously.

"Don't be too anxious. After you finish drawing, take a break. Many cartoonists don't pay attention to taking care of their bodies. A little older, they will suffer from many diseases. Therefore, we must combine work and rest."

This is not alarmist talk. Many cartoonists died when they were not too old. When Osamu Tezuka, the "god of comics," died, he was only 60 years old. When the author of "Doraemon" Fujiko·F·Fujio passed away, he was only too old. 63 years old.

From this point of view, cartoonists are indeed a high-risk industry.

Gao Hang nodded repeatedly after hearing Shen Xin's words.

"By the way, teacher, don't you sign the book for sale?" Lu Ning suddenly remembered this.

"Well, we will sign some for a lottery draw. As for the signing of the book, there may be no more."

It is impossible for Shen Xin to organize an autograph book sale every time he publishes a single book.

For the four-volume one-volume book that was sold before, Shen Xin has signed three book sales. If the number of times is too many, the effect will not be very good.

"Will readers have opinions?" Gao Hang was surprised.

"That's no way. I need to take a breath." Shen Xin smiled, but still couldn't hide the tiredness on his face.

During this period of time, he felt a lot of pressure both mentally and physically. "Y’s" was temporarily ranked fourth, but this ranking was not what he wanted.

In front of "Y\'s", whether it is "Hunting Abyss", "Top of Basketball", or "Crime", the strength cannot be underestimated. More importantly, these three comics come from three. "ComicFuture" and "MangaFly" in major publications.

In the past fifteen years, the newcomer awards have been equally divided among the three major publications. This time, can "Y\'s" break this rule?

Shen Xin is very confident in the quality of "Y\'s", but what kind of choices readers will make and what kind of influence the game between magazines will have on "Y\'s" makes him feel concern.

Even Shen Xin does not rule out that "Y\'s" will become a victim of the struggle between the two magazines.

When the fifth volume of "Y's" was determined that there would not be an autograph session, many readers protested, and some people expressed concern about the future of "Y's"'s new pamphlet.

On September 7, the fifth volume of "Y\'s" was released. On the first day, the fifth volume exceeded 100,000 and reached 500,000 in the first week.

Without signing the book sales event as a gimmick, the sales of "Y\'s" have already made Shen Xin very satisfied.

"Hunting Abyss" is still very popular, with 130,000 copies on the first day of the fourth volume and 600,000 copies in the first week. It not only won the first place in one fell swoop, but also separated from the second place "Y\'s". 2 million popularity value.

But this is not the final ranking of the leaderboard.

"Top of Basketball" released the seventh volume of the booklet on September 14. With the blessing of animation, the sales of the new book of "Top of Basketball" reached 350,000 in the first week. With its weak advantage, it was overwhelmed. "Y\'s" temporarily became the second place.

But it didn't sit in the second place for too long. The co-creation of Lu Ning, Gao Hang and Zhou Yang was also published in "NewWorld".

Shen Xin was surprised when he saw the comics completed by the three people.

The background is written by Gao Hang, and the quality is undoubtedly ~lightnovelpub.net~ which fits the comics very well.

The doujin drawn by Seven Grapefruits and Zanxiang is a major lack in background. Although they are also drawing very carefully, they are still far behind Gao Hang, who is a professional assistant.

This is not the shortcoming of their group. In fact, most of the comrades, or the cartoonists who are new to the profession, are not very good at drawing backgrounds, because background drawing requires not only a solid basic skill, but also a sharpening of the drawing skills. Patience.

When a person spends a lot of time on drawing the background and effect lines, it will feel very boring. Therefore, the patience of the painter is also very important.

In addition, Lu Ning's control of the characters has also been greatly improved, and he can better grasp the expression and feeling of the characters than Seven Grapefruits and Remnant.

The storyboard designed by Zhou Yang is not to mention, after all, he has become a professional cartoonist, and his understanding of storytelling is much better than his peers.

These three people worked together to complete the work, so that Shen Xin could not help but nodded again and again, and at the same time gave Lu Ning and Gao Hang a thumbs up.

The vote announced by the magazine confirmed Shen Xin's guess. In the 1,000 randomly selected questionnaires, the official colleagues won the final 50,000 yuan award with an absolute advantage of 634 to 366.

This high-quality doujin comic surprised the readers of "Y\'s". The long commentary of more than 500 words was posted on the forums of comics. The number of votes for "Y\'s" was also once again. Rising, a single-day recommended ticket exceeded 300,000, and the sales volume of the single book also exceeded 150,000 within a week.

"Y\'s" once again surpassed "Top of Basketball" and became the second place on the rookie list.

As October gets closer and closer, the ranking of the rookie list has gradually become clear. ) Book friends hurry up and pay attention!
