I Just Want to Draw Comics Quietly
Chapter 20: meeting
In early November, the weather turned cold.
On Friday morning, Chu Yu walked into the classroom as usual. After a week of busy work, Chu Yu finally drew the manuscript of the Remembrance of Sanhua Rurouni Kenshin the day before yesterday. Yesterday, he went back to sleep in the afternoon. By daybreak, he looks more energetic today.
Ordinary, ordinary morning as always.
Of course, this is just Chu Yu's thoughts.
In fact, even Zhao Qinyin, who is in a few classes away, would nervously check his mobile phone from time to time.
After all, today is the day that the Cuttlefish Comics Club held a serial meeting on the serialization of the vacancies in the comic periodical.
Although the author of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance is Chuyu, as an assistant, she certainly hopes that this work will be selected by the manga agency.
And, because he participated in the drawing of this comic, Zhao Qinyin is more aware of the quality of this work.
The short story is a fusion of battle, politics, love, revenge and many other elements.
Whether it is the artistry or the content of the work, Zhao Qinyin feels that it is not much better than the works serialized on the comic film nowadays.
It's just a pity that I only drew three manuscripts before the serial meeting... the plot has not been fully developed yet.
Different from the finished manuscript, the comic name that Chu Yu gave Zhao Qinyin for reference has been drawn up to the ninth chapter, and Zhao Qinyin knows some of the plot behind it.
From her point of view, if such a work fails to be serialized because the plot of the first three episodes has not yet started, it is definitely not Chu Yu’s loss, but Cuttlefish Comics’ loss.
......
At 9:30 a.m., dozens of editors, large and small, all arrived at the Cuttlefish Comics Club and sat quietly in the conference room.
Many editors do not have suitable works in their hands, so they are not ready to compete for the vacant seats in the comics. These people have a very relaxed expression. They talked and laughed before the meeting, but more editors, then His complexion is dignified.
Among them, Su Lu is also included.
This week, after reading the comic name of the first nine episodes of Rurouni Kenshin drawn by Chu Yu and the manuscripts of the first three episodes, Su Lu finally has a general understanding of this work.
To be honest, regardless of the estimated length of the sixteen chapters of this work, considering the quality and depth of the work alone, it is definitely the most exciting comic that Su Lu has received over the years in this industry.
Especially in the early hours of yesterday morning, after going home with the manuscript in a daze, she only got up the next morning and read the manuscript of the three chapters from start to finish. She was stunned.
Handsome character modeling and fighting, exquisite painting style, and the panoramic picture of the umbrella in the rain on the last page of the third chapter.
At that moment, Su Lu realized for the first time that he didn't know Chu Yu at all. Su Lu has always regarded him as a potential rookie cartoonist.
But now, she doesn't think so. Only the second work can have such a quality cartoonist. It is obviously too pale to use only three words with potential to describe it!
At this time, editor-in-chief Pang Feng and deputy editor-in-chief Song Jiayu walked in together.
"Everyone is here, so let's start the meeting!"
After the two are seated, they don’t talk nonsense.
"A total of 18 works participated in the competition at this conference."
"Of course, although I said before that the purpose of this conference is to select works that fill the gaps in the comics, if many of the works are excellent, they can also be used as preliminary works for other journals!"
Next, the staff will hand out the name copies of the comic works submitted to participate in the competition to the editors one by one.
"This is not the first time everyone has participated in this kind of meeting, but even so, I'll talk about the selection rules again!"
"Each work has five minutes of viewing time. Please fill in your score for this work in the form on your desktop after reading it."
"Finally, the top five works with the highest scores will be collected for discussion and voting in the final session. The works with the most voting scores can get serialization opportunities."
"There are 37 people participating in the conference. Among them, the editor's vote in the final session counts five points, the deputy editor's vote counts three points, and the rest of the people who vote are counted one point, and abandon vote for a certain work is not counted!"
Generally speaking, the editors and associate editors of serials in general journals have a lot of right to speak, which can affect whether the works can be serialized to a large extent. Only in this periodical, the vacancy of serialization needs to be so serious. Election by way of voting has been the rule of Cuttlefish Comics for many years.
Soon, the first work was submitted.
No one spoke during this time, everyone was watching the work in front of him intently.
The quality of the works that are confident to participate in this kind of conference will naturally not be bad. At least, even editors who have worked in this industry for many years on the spot can hardly find the obvious shortcomings of these works. At most, they can only say that they are not good enough. , At least all on the pass line.
Soon, one hour passed.
After reading the manga name intently for an hour, many people sweated on their foreheads.
But the more you go to the back, the more relaxed the expression on Su Lu's face.
Because although there are a few excellent works among them, to be honest, from an objective point of view, Su Lu still thinks that these works have a big gap with Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance.
Moreover, there are also a few of these works, like Chu Yu, who did not submit their name for selection, but directly submitted the original manuscripts.
Of course, the authors of these works are definitely not crazy players like Chu Yu, but some who have painted new works early and will only submit their articles until such a serial opportunity.
Time passed, when the staff changed the work in front of the editors again, almost all the editors were bright.
is not a name, it is also a manuscript delivery, and the first page attracts the eyes of many editors.
The work is called Hidden Girl.
"This...screen?"
"This style of painting is so familiar."
"Author..."
"Dong Yun..."
All of a sudden, the meeting room exploded!
"Teacher Dong Yun, can't it!"
"This is the backbone cartoonist of Fengyu Comics Club!"
"I heard that she was not in a hurry to renew her contract with Fengyu after the contract expired, but anyway, she left the platform where she had been fighting for seven or eight years. Why did she come to us Cuttlefish?"
Dong Yun, the contracted author of Tianyin Comics, a comic periodical under Fengyu Comics.
In Los Angeles, there are three major manga periodicals, Man Ying, Tianyin Manga, and Fire Dragon Manga. They belong to Cuttlefish Comics Club, Fengyu Comics Club and Dragon Tooth Comics Club.
And Dong Yun was serialized on Tianyin comics before this, and the upper part of the work "Heart Mystery" was voted for forty-five weeks in Tianyin comics and ranked first, and it was one of the top girl manga authors in Los Angeles.
All of a sudden, the editors on the scene were heartbroken.
A character like is going to come to Cuttlefish, and it is normal to cut a piece of work directly on the comic to make way for her. What kind of serial meeting is she still participating in!
Isn’t this bullying?
Who would dare not give her a chance to serialize?
Then tomorrow her fans can send a bunch of bad reviews and block in front of the comics club to demonstrate.
Song Jiayu smiled. He had long understood that it would be like this when Dong Yun's work appeared at this conference.
He could have directly arranged for Dong Yun's work to be serialized directly on the comic, but he did not do so, instead let Dong Yun's new work enter this serialization meeting.
The purpose is nothing else, just want to let Su Lu feel what despair is.
After all, he heard that Su Lu had been busy during this period of time. It seemed that he hoped that the new work of the author of Yan Ye Zhi Ting would stand out in this serial conference.
Although he does not think that the newcomer author has the ability to draw works of sufficient quality from the numerous works of this serial conference.
But it’s always good to be careful. After all, the chances of serialization in other journals are basically the two editor-in-chiefs of him and Pang Feng. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com only has comics, and it’s voting. Some surprises may occur.
But anyway, even if the newcomer’s work really explodes, it’s impossible to explode Dong Yun’s new work!
But what makes Song Jiayu strange is that when Su Lu saw this work signed by Dong Yun by the author, his brows were frowned at first, but after reading the work carefully, the frowning brows were actually loosened and his face 'S expression seems to have some disapproving expressions faintly.
This shouldn't be!
Dong Yun’s new work, Song Jiayu, has seen that no matter the style, plot, or opening is above the standard, it is no worse than the opening of the pinnacle "Heart Riddle". Could it be that the work of the newcomer named Shui Xin she brought is better than Is Dong Yun's work strong?
Ha ha.......
Song Jiayu shook his head!
Five minutes of reading time passed quickly.
Most of the editors preparing to compete for this opportunity sighed.
deserves to be Dong Yun’s new work. Indeed, the quality of the work is not on the same level as the previous works.
I did not lose unjustly!
soon...
Replaced with a new work.
Although everyone has already acquiesced in their hearts that Dong Yun's new work "The Hidden Girl" has been given the opportunity to serialize this time.
But their professionalism makes them look at the later works seriously. After all, if there are really promising works, they can also be serialized in other journals.
"Rurouni Kenshin. Remembrance!"
The drafts submitted are the same as the Secret Girls, and they are also the originals, signed by the author, Shui Xin.
"Come on." Song Jiayu smiled.
He really wanted to see how this work, which Su Lu had hoped for, compared to Dong Yun’s new work...
