Chapter 465: Sudden call

? "Icfuture" almost treats the animation of "Steel Refining" as a killer feature, so the magazine is also very concerned about the progress of "Steel Refining" animation.

However, considering the need to connect all the subsequent plots, the magazine and the production party experienced a heated discussion, and finally determined the release time for next year’s fall, that is, next year’s October, the first season 24 episodes. After that is the 9 episodes of the biography, followed by the rest of the animation.

In this way, it can be guaranteed that "Steel Refining" can play animation throughout the following year.

In addition, for Shen Xin, another piece of good news is that "The Soul of the Game: Beidou Cup" has been produced and will be released in the Spring Festival this year. The first mv is preparing to be played on major video sites, and now it is just waiting for a comparison. Reasonable timing.

The game of "Soul of Go" is said to be at an end. After the production is completed, internal testing will be carried out, mainly to fix the game bugs. It is estimated that it will be delayed for a while.

It is expected that the release of "Beidou Cup" will drive the sales of "Hire of Go", and even the sales of "Steel Refining" may also be affected.

In the next one or two years, the sales volume of "God of the Game" and "Steel Refining" should have a good increase.

Xi Muhan thought of the script, worried, just about to speak, suddenly heard a scream from Liu Rui downstairs.

"What's the matter?" Xi Muhan hurriedly asked downstairs.

"Xiao Han, sorry, I was shocked when I saw Duoman.com's Weibo just now."

"Ok?"

"Really a big deal--" Gao Hang also responded.

"A lot of money?"

Confused, Shen Xin immediately found his phone and clicked on the official WeChat account of Duoman.com, and Xi Muhan also clicked on Weibo at the same time.

"Golden Paintbrush Award Essay?" Shen Xin saw this Weibo, his eyes lit up, and then he couldn't wait to look down.

"Although Duoman is a new website, its pursuit of good works has always spared no effort. In order to stimulate the creation of original comics by domestic cartoonists, this site is planned to start from December 1st to June 30th next year. By the end of the day, the entries will be judged, and the winning entries will be announced on September 30."

"Golden Paintbrush Award, 1 prize, 5 million yuan, the quality of comics is no less than that of "Game", "Hunting Abyss" and other works, and vacancies are allowed.

"Silver Paintbrush Award, 5 winners, 1 million yuan in prize money."

"All copyrights and derivative proceeds of the winning works belong to the website. The specific selection rules and requirements for the works will be announced on December 1."

Shen Xin was shocked when he saw this Weibo, "This is equivalent to spending 10 million to host the grand prize... This is really a big deal."

According to the content reflected on Weibo, it is not difficult to judge that the nature of the winning works is buyout. Moreover, although there is no derivative income, there should be both monthly comic book and booklet income.

"Golden Paintbrush Award 5 million yuan-a lot of money." Xi Muhan was unavoidable when he saw this number.

"Guotu" has been sold for so long, and there is almost only so much money.

"This 5 million is not easy to get. Didn’t you see a line written on the back? It can be vacant. Therefore, the only condition for this bonus is that the comics will bring more than 5 million to the website. Surely the benefits of level cartoons to cartoonists are more than 5 million?" Shen Xin explained.

"Yes." Xi Muhan nodded and looked at the screen of the phone again, "If 5 million can buy comics of the level of "Game" or "Hunting Abyss," it must be earned."

"There should be an author who will fight it. After all, copyright is valuable only if it is sold. To be honest, it is worthless." Shen Xin's mouth curled up, "Many magazines are really too conservative. , Authors must see the real money before they can realize their potential... From the author’s point of view, how much the net can disturb the muddy water is also a good thing. However, the scope of influence of this award may be even greater. Big."

"Huh?" Xi Muhan looked at Shen Xin puzzledly.

"I heard from Brother Wang that the magazine originally wanted to create an award, but it was difficult for them to come up with 10 million yuan in cash as a bonus, which would have an impact on the layout of "cf"; secondly, the awarding time overlaps with the "comic festival". In the future, the role of the'Comic Festival' will be even smaller. For more than ten years, the bonus of the'Comic Festival' has been only a few hundred thousand, which is really too petty."

Shen Xin couldn't help complaining. He also won the "Comic Festival" award, but the money he got was not as good as a single book.

Honor is very important, but for the author, it is far from the benefits of bonuses.

Shen Xin then pulled down another Weibo, another Weibo on Duoman.com's official Weibo, which also attracted his attention-Duo Comics announced 50 comics to be uploaded in November. Among them, there are many cartoons that Shen Xin is familiar with, such as "Toggle", "Ghost Power", "The Boy Who Chased the Wind"...

"Duoman really wants to kill comic magazines." Shen Xin sighed.

"Huh?" Xi Muhan was stunned for a moment, and then saw this Weibo, "These cartoons are definitely not comparable to "Steel Refining", so the impact shouldn't be too big, right?"

"They are not comparable to "Steel Refining", but the signature comics of second-rate magazines are not much worse than the main brands of first-class magazine comics. The addition of these 50 comics may make magazines feel tricky."

It is not an exaggeration to say that Duoman.com is just a small fight in front of it. The real life of the paper magazines is that these 50 completed comics-the most lacking content of Duoman.com, temporarily "make up for it."

2 months of free period...Who knows how many readers can be "sucked"?

"Hey, it's weird." Xi Muhan said suddenly.

"No...no "y's". According to common sense, "y's" should be the top comic serialized in a second-rate magazine, right? Why is there no "y's"?"

"Definitely not. I just signed the paper copyright of "y’s"." Shen Xin smiled.

Speaking of it, thanks to the fact that web comics were not popular at that time, so most of the contracts did not mention online copyrights—in fact, it was a one-sentence thing—even the copyright of "Steel Refining" and web comics was still there. In his hands, but generally speaking, the original magazine has priority. Therefore, the electronic copyright of "Steel Refining" is more likely to be given to "icfuture".

"Ah? So that's how it is." Xi Muhan nodded slightly.

"Y's" has only ten years of copyright, and now six or seven years have passed. After a few more years of copyright, he will naturally return to Shen Xin, so he is not in a hurry. When the time comes, he can directly ask for the copyright of "neorld". ——If at that time ~lightnovelpub.net~ was still there.

At this moment, the phone in Shen Xin's hand suddenly rang, and he glanced at the phone subconsciously, and his expression suddenly became weird.

"What's the matter?" Xi Muhan was puzzled seeing the look on Shen Xin's face.

Shen Xin smiled, "Guess who called me?"

"I don't know." Xi Muhan shook his head.

"Song Tai." Shen Xin glanced at the phone and chuckled.

"He? Huh? Isn't it because of the copyright of the "y's" webcomic?" Xi Muhan asked in surprise.

"Then who knows?"

Shen Xin thought for a while, still connected to the phone, he wanted to know what chess Song Tai was going to play.
