My Cartoonist Guide
Chapter 627: method
Now, "Steel Refining" is serialized to Chapter 137, "The Shape of a Man, the Shape of a Stone". In this sentence, Hohenheim and Izmi, the master who came to Edward, tell their own thoughts-he is The walking sage stone.
Counting these words, "Steel Refining" is still not enough for a single book, and "Steel Refining" has a total of 27 volumes, that is to say, "Steel Refining" still has at least 65 words unpainted.
Now it’s just entering June, and I’ll rest for two months, that is, the serialization will begin in August. A year later, that is, by August next year, the maximum serialization will be 50 episodes. It is roughly estimated that the comics will definitely be caught up and how much originality will be added. The plot is useless.
Shen Xin roughly calculated it again and knew that according to the current progress, it was a certainty to be caught up.
The black handwriting drew three circles on "65" and finally stopped.
"If you follow the current pace, "Steel Refining" will not be finished until November next year at the earliest." Shen Xin put down his pen and looked at the other three.
Yan Fei frowned, and after translating Shen Xin's words into Japanese, Chuang Si Uno's expression also became solemn.
From April to November, this is half a year, and it takes one and a half years to fill it up before it can be received.
If you divide it into another season, it will not be cost-effective in terms of time, because in half a year, "Steel Refining" will be over, and the animation will also use the popularity of comics to sell BD. Besides, if the remaining content is divided into two seasons...Who knows when the third season will be released? It is also possible to delay for a year or a half in the future.
As for... the original plot?
Others really can't figure out the plot of "Steel Refining". They told Shen Xin that no one can guarantee that the original plot will not conflict with the comics in the setting.
"If it's not enough to compress the plot? Compress the content of "Steel Refining" to end before April next year?" Shoji Uno put forward his own ideas.
"impossible!"
After hearing the translation, Shang Haozhi shook his head repeatedly.
The biggest pillar of "ComicFuture" now is "Steel Refining". When Shen Xin said that "Steel Making" was about to end in November next year, his heart was tense.
What this means, he knows better than anyone. Before November next year, if "ComicFuture" cannot find a comic that can replace "Steel Refining", "ComicFuture" will definitely be surpassed by Doman.com.
Now, Shoji Uno proposes to compress the plot of "Steel Refining" and finish it half a year ahead of schedule... Isn't that going to kill him?
Firmly disagree.
Shang Haozhi's attitude is very firm.
Shen Xin did not intend to compress the plot of "Steel Refining". In fact, Aunt Niu was a bit sloppy when dealing with the finale. After all, the words of the confrontation with "Father" are surprisingly lengthy. If you pursue the ultimate rationality , It was really difficult for others, and because of this, in the end, World War I had the passion that hot-blooded comics should have.
If the content is compressed again, in fact, the plot is likely to collapse.
He does not allow this to happen.
Shen Xin looked at the blank paper in front of him and wrote a "/2" on it.
65/2, equal to 32.5, rounded up, and merged the two episodes into one. There are 33 episodes left in "Steel Refining".
"Steel Refining" was originally a monthly magazine, and for the weekly update, I split 1 episode of "Steel Refining" into 2 episodes.
If this is done, "Steelmaking" should be finished before April next year. However, on average, 40 to 45 pages of manuscripts are drawn a week. Can you afford it?
Shen Xin leaned back in his chair and seriously recalled the state he was in when he drew the comics, uh...it should have persisted for more than half a year, and there is no big problem.
He can ask Wang Wenhong to help him find two more assistants. Also, things that have nothing to do with comics can also be handed over to Wang Wenhong. After thinking about it, he can really try it... No, in order not to reduce the quality of "Steel Refining", He has to do this.
But this method also has its difficulties-the problem is not in him, but in "ComicFuture".
The length of a magazine is fixed, "Steel Refining" draws 40 pages a week, which means that a comic cannot be serialized.
Does "ComicFuture" agree? Does Shang Hozhi agree?
This is also ambiguous.
After watching Shen Xin drew a few strokes on the paper, other people's expressions changed a little, but they didn't know why.
"What's wrong? Do you have any ideas? Teacher Shen?" Shang Haozhi asked.
"It's not good to compress the plot. If I compress the plot, the quality of "Steel Refining" will definitely decline, and I don't want to do this. Later, I thought about it, and it was not without a solution." Shen Xin took a deep breath and looked at Shang Haozhi.
"What way?" Shang Haozhi asked puzzledly.
"May need the help of the magazine," Shen Xin said in a deep voice.
"tell me the story."
"In the next period of time, lengthening the length of each sentence of "Steel Refining" from the current more than 20 pages to more than 40 pages should be completed in more than half a year." Shen Xin stared at Shang. Ho Chi.
"Is it too tired? Your body...especially your stomach needs recuperating." Yan Fei said quickly. She will be the editor of Shen Xin in the future, and she must pay attention to Shen Xin's health.
"I know. However, in the last two months, I have nothing else to do. I can take advantage of this time to prepare the rest, and then find two assistants. It should be no problem. It will only take half a year. It's "ComicFuture". , I don’t know if there will be enough space for me.” Shen Xin and Shang Haozhi looked at each other.
Shang Haozhi did not expect that Shen Xin would do this, and sweat was also shed on his forehead.
Doubling the length of "Steel Refining" is definitely a good thing for "ComicFuture", especially in the situation of the collective decline of domestic magazines, but Shen Xin's words also conveyed another signal-"Steel Refining" is about to end.
It would be dangerous if there was no other comic to replace "Steel Making ~lightnovelpub.net~ before then."
After Chuang Si Uno knew what Shen Xin said, he also asked Yan Fei to take out a piece of paper. He drew two pages on the paper hastily, and then looked up at Shang Haozhi, "If Mr. Shen can guarantee the quality of the comics, I think it will be fine , 160 pages of manuscript a month, should not interrupt the animation."
"In this case..." Shang Haozhi looked at Shen Xin with some embarrassment, "No problem in principle. Now ComicFuture also has its own app. Just put a serialized article on the app..."
Speaking of this, Shang Haozhi is a little confused. So far, there is still no clear plan on how to make the app more competitive. Now magazines and apps are facing the impact of the D version, and everything is unfavorable.
"Then do this?" Shen Xin asked tentatively.
"I have two more questions." Shang Haozhi knocked on the table twice, "After "Steel Refining" is over, what plans does Teacher Shen have? When will your next comic come out?"
Although Shang Haozhi didn't want to admit it, "ComicFuture" relied on Shen Xin far more than Wang Yunze.
Shen Xin was taken aback, but he didn't expect Shang Haozhi to bring the topic to the next comic.
"I want to rest for a while..." Shen Xin paid attention to Shang Haozhi's expression, and when he saw his face turn cold, he changed his style of painting. It’s not impossible...it’s still early, and I can’t give a definite answer. But at that time, Yelaoshr’s new work should have come out too?
Hearing Ye Hexu, Shang Haozhi also nodded, his face relaxed a lot.
Yes, "ComicFuture" is not only Shen Xin a cartoonist, but also Ye Hexu in the magazine? 8) More wonderful novels, welcome to visit everyone
