Big Manga

"There is no rush for new comics, please help me draw "Dragon and Tiger" first!"

Meng Huo smiled, he hasn't considered the new manga yet! In fact, it may not be launched in the past two months. "Light Voice Girl" has started construction, and there is also a new animation waiting to start in Tokyo. After the two animations are stable, Manga Island has to start preparing for the carnival again—— — Meng Huo was so busy with things that he didn't dare to think about new comics for the time being.

And let the two female assistants paint "Dragon and Tiger" first, which can also share his work pressure.

""Dragon and tiger"?"

The female cartoonists were overjoyed at first. "Dragon and Tiger" is a very good cartoon. He Xi wrote it by himself. It was even more popular than "Yoran High School Male Public Relations Department" at the same time. Moreover, there are many male and female readers, so they can take over This comic is a recognition of strength, but it is also very difficult.

"Teacher He Xi, can we draw it well?"

"The difficulty of this comic is too high..."

After the joy, the two female cartoonists showed concern. "Dragon and Tiger" is exquisite, so it goes without saying. The most difficult thing about it is that since the beginning of the serialization, the comics have always been from the perspective of the male and female protagonists. Many people worried that He Xi would not be able to handle this issue well, but time has proved that he has been doing it very well.

But this balance is difficult to imitate. Many cartoonists have secretly learned the drawing method of "Dragon and Tiger", but it is okay to draw one or two episodes, three or four episodes. If you want to describe the story from a neutral perspective for a long time, this Difficulty is not normal. Some comic academies in China have even set up special skill research associations to study this new style of drawing. But if you want to wait for the proficient skills to be released, it is impossible to wait a year or two.

This is what the two female cartoonists are worried about. They can't handle the camera division of the two protagonists well. Those who are used to shoujo comics will involuntarily lean towards the heroine's perspective. If the male readers are upset by then, "Dragon and Tiger" will be completely ruined.

"It doesn't matter, you can do it." Meng Huo said with a smile: "I will teach you slowly, and with me in charge, there will be no problems with comics."

He used to paint "Dragon and Tiger" by himself, but this time he had two assistants. On the contrary, it relieved the pressure, even if the assistants didn't understand it at first. After a month or two of training, they will definitely get the hang of it. Moreover, two assistants, each responsible for a perspective, have advantages in cooperating.

"Is Teacher He Xi in charge? Then there's no problem..."

The cartoonists breathed a sigh of relief. Meng Huo's words imply that his checkpoints in "Dragon and Tiger" will be higher than in "Yoran High School Male Public Relations Department", so there is no problem.

"Then aren't we going to move to Manga Island?" An assistant suddenly became nervous,

If it is a closer cooperation, it will be much more difficult to continue the current remote mode, and they may have to move to Manga Island. But their home is in Ninghai, and they don't want to leave here.

"It doesn't matter if you go for a month or two?" Meng Huo saw through their worries and said with a smile, "Go to Manga Island and learn with me for a while, and you will be able to come back if you are proficient in drawing."

He didn't mean to force them to stay in Suhua all the time, and it wasn't necessary. These two female assistants are very strong and have a good sense of responsibility. Meng Huo is even more at ease with them than Mr. Tomato. Tomatoes are also dutiful assistants, but relatively speaking. Meng Huo felt that the two female assistants needed less attention in maintaining the quality of the manga.

On the second day after the autograph session ended, Meng Huo said goodbye to Li Qin, then met two assistants at the train station and brought them to Manga Island.

The first thing Meng Huo did when he came back was to check the situation of the animation department. After a few days of practice, the artists in the animation department seemed to have gotten used to the painting style of "Light Music Girl". The drawn characters generally met the passing standards in Meng Huo's heart, and of course more importantly. The image of the animated character became consistent.

Although there are still some differences, 80% of the same characters drawn by each artist are similar. After a few more days of running in, when the similarity is improved, the animation can officially start. Of course, no matter how similar they are, they cannot be exactly the same. The adjustment after the official start of work is the work of Meng Huo and Qin Ya.

Qin Ya's requirements are the strictest. Other painters only need to be as similar as possible and not out of shape, but Meng Huo's requirements for Qin Ya are exactly the same as his. For this reason, before he left Su Hua, he left Qin Ya with a stack of character settings. Each character Qin Ya needed to draw thousands of times, including images from different perspectives.

She wants to deeply imprint the image of each character in her mind without any mistakes, and she does a good job at this. When Meng Huo came back, Qin Ya was able to draw the animation characters easily and naturally up.

"I like this animation." She said this. This animation does not require extremely high quality like "5 Centimeters Per Second", nor does it have many abstract witch characters like "Magic Girl Madoka"-in short, The painting style of "Light Music Girl" is very suitable for her to play.

The only thing that makes Qin Ya feel unhappy is that this animation is a campus animation, but after listening to the plot, this unhappiness has long since dissipated. Although it is a campus animation, the animation does not highlight the boring study and life on campus, but instead highlights club activities and dreams - which is very good in Qin Ya's eyes!

However, the first animation is progressing smoothly, but the second animation has not come up with ideas. As "Detective Conan" draws to a close, other people in the Phoenix company are a little anxious.

""Detective Conan" is the animation pillar of our company. It is not comparable to ordinary animation. Its end will reduce our company's influence in the animation industry by almost half." One day at noon, Alice found Meng Meng in the restaurant. Get, and talk to him about it.

As one of the three major long-form popular animations in China, the end of "Detective Conan" will also cause a huge short-term loss of popularity for Phoenix. It will take half a year to wait for it to open again. During this half year, Phoenix's influence will undoubtedly be at its lowest point in two years, and it is also the best time for other animation companies to catch up with Phoenix.

The management of Phoenix Company is worried that others will take advantage of the opportunity, so Meng Huo's two animations to fill this blank period are particularly important. But the first animation he announced was "Qing Yin Girl", a 12-episode campus animation. Although no one dared to say that this animation is not good, judging from the length, story and even type, "Qing Yin Girl" is obviously Small works.

This kind of niche works cannot fill the void of "Detective Conan". Phoenix Company needs a big production that can gather extremely popular animations to appear on the stage, so as to maintain its dominant position-don't forget "Pet" in half a year. "Elf" will also end, Phoenix Company dare not waste a little popularity.

And the problem doesn't stop there...

"We cooperate with Suhua and Tokyo two TV stations... If there are no popular animation works, how can we support their animation ratings?" The waiter in the restaurant brought the set meal Alice ordered to the table, but she was not in a hurry to eat, but He looked at Meng Huo and said, "It is said that Zhongxia Company will launch seven new animations in the past two months?"

"kindness."

Meng Huo nodded. He knew what Alice meant. Now that Fenghuang and Zhongxia had separated, it was time to support the strength of the cooperative TV station. If Phoenix Company doesn't pull up Suhua and TV Tokyo's animation ratings earlier, and let Zhongxia Company gain the upper hand, it will be even more dangerous in the future.

In terms of animation cooperation, Zhongxia Company has a great advantage in the number of animations. Although Phoenix Company has united with some animation production companies and also connected them with two TV stations, the animations of these companies are not bad. Expectations are too high.

To increase the ratings of Su Hua and TV Tokyo, it has to be the work of Phoenix Company, and they have signed a cooperation contract for a month, and the first animation of Phoenix Company has not yet been uploaded, and the second animation has no shadow. Before long, it will be time for both TV stations to worry about their choices.

"Did the people in the company entrust you to say these words, or the TV station entrusted you to say these words?" Meng Huo suddenly laughed. He felt that it was definitely not his intention for Alice to seek him. Everyone didn't want to disturb him during this time, Alice Silk obviously wouldn't take the initiative to violate the ban.

Most of what was said just now was someone trying to persuade Alice to speak up, because she had the best relationship with Meng Huo.

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from you..." Alice smiled wryly, shook her head and said, "It's all...some people in the company called me during this time, including Mr. Takashima from Tokyo, and he wanted me to push you for a while." Yes. And the two TV stations also asked me through other channels, they are a little nervous about "Light Music Girl" and want to know the news about the second animation sooner."

"And I also think..." Alice glanced at Meng Huo: "You've been thinking about it for so long, this doesn't look like your style! Make a decision early, if you don't want to create original animations, you can also adapt previous comics A good choice, you don't have to worry about animation at all? For example, "One Piece"..."

"No, no...that's too exaggerated!"

Meng Huo waved his hand quickly, just kidding, can "One Piece" come out now? He can retire after leaving...

"How about "Shakugan no Shana" or ""?"

Alice continued to propose.

"Forget it... Shana is not much now, I plan to leave it to Manga Island in the future." Meng Huo shook his head, and then said: "I am mainly considering several rigid conditions for the new animation, one is the half-year work, The second is high popularity, and the third is the most important...the difficulty is best to be simple."

He doesn't have time to stay in Tokyo to supervise the production of new animations, so the production difficulty should not be too high, and it is best for Sakura Company to maintain a certain independent production capacity.

"Easy difficulty?" Alice frowned slightly, and then her eyes lit up: "I thought of one! How about Gundam? They have made Gundam animations before, isn't it the easiest and most skilled for them to be Gundam? Highly popular subject!"

Two years after the completion of "Gundam Seed", the Gundam series has flourished, and now it has a large audience in China. (to be continued)
