My Cartoonist Guide

With the release of the first issue of the new year's magazine, the manuscript of the interview with Shen Xin by Juvenile P was also published.

There is a circle in the upper right corner of the cover of the magazine, printed with Shen Xin's head portrait, and under the head is printed a line of characters, "Shen Zheng", editor-in-chief Tachibana, Shen Zheng&p;p; Uematsuno.

As Tachibana originally planned to interview Shen Xin, Uematsuno's Q&A was temporarily added, and the content of the interview was limited. Therefore, even in the juvenile p, Shen Zheng's name was in front of Uematsuno.

However, the cartoonists who got the magazine were not the one who cared the most about this issue. Even in this case, the gap between Xiangbei and Shangong widened to the first point, and Huadao was also replaced by coach Anxi. They cared more about the youth p and Shen. Xin's interview, in particular, involves the part of the cartoonist.

"Mr. Shen has a lot of vernacular. It should be very common for newcomers to be assistants, right? Even if he doesn't, I know." A cartoonist asked rhetorically.

"When newcomers accept corrections, will they become irritated?" Another cartoonist questioned.

"Should not? Anyway, if someone points out the shortcomings in my comics, I would be very grateful." A comic artist expressed his own opinion.

"The reason why I became a cartoonist is to convey the story in my heart to readers through brushes. Of course, it is also necessary to make money. Why do I have to abandon one instead of both?"

Soon after the rookie cartoonist fell into a controversy, the editor also joined the "meshed".

"As an editor, there are not a thousand newcomers, but also five hundred. I can be very responsible. Even if we make suggestions to newcomer cartoonists who come forward to contribute, there is a high probability of encountering the kind of newcomer who thinks we don’t. The wrong person. Then, he insisted on letting us serialize. The magazine's serialization quota is limited. The serialization of one work means that the other work is cut in half. We let the newcomer cartoonists modify the comics for their own good, because They have to compete with the comics that are being serialized, otherwise, we don’t have to cut the comics that are serialized at all.”

"Yes, some readers even admit the truth, not only think they are right, but also ask the editor why their work has shortcomings? What is the basis? Is it a new editor? When encountering such a cartoonist, even if the artist is good, I have to give up Up."

Soon after the latter editor posted on Weibo, the editor was immediately asked, "Which magazine do you belong to? I will go around a little bit in future submissions."

The editor was not to be outdone, "Or your pen name? I will see your pen name in the future and pass it on to other editors."

"Ms. Shen has also passed. Newcomers not only need their own efforts, but also the environment provided by the platform. Excuse me, what environment does the platform provide?" A cartoonist immediately raised another question.

"All major magazines have newcomer awards, comics festivals also have newcomer awards, many have a golden brush award, and even r also set up awards for newcomers. Are these not the efforts of the platform?"

"However, even award-winning works may be cut in half."

"This question shouldn't be answered by the comics family? The platform provides a lot of convenience for the newcomer comics, but the bonus is cut in half. No matter how you look at it, these are all related to the burnout behind the comics? The award is not a comic. The end of the home, but the beginning. You only see that sentence, but too, Mr. Shen. The cartoonist is a gambler. If you don’t make such a plan, you should give up as soon as possible? Or you can be an assistant to the cartoonist. ."

The topic suddenly jumped to the "unstable" professional characteristics of cartoonists, and it attracted some old cartoonists who had achieved achievements.

"That's right, cartoonists do have the characteristics of instability. The last work was a big hit, but the new work may be directly on the street, and the serialization will be cut after a dozen episodes. In this world, not only new cartoonists are difficult to mix. It is also very difficult for a cartoonist like me who has had old works to stabilize."

"Ms. Liu Xing knows? The author of the alien detective, his new serial has also been cut, and he has not survived three volumes."

"Ms. Liu Xing? That's a first-line cartoonist. Do I remember that there are 60,000 volumes of Detectives in Alien World?"

"Who isn't? This industry, even the first-line cartoonists can't do it. If you want to have a stable performance, every cartoon will sell well, which is not realistic."

"The first-line cartoonists are no different from us, the most is that they make more money, but they are not sure that the lower book will be popular."

"There should be no more than 5 people in China who can determine the performance of the lower comics."

"Yes. Not only new people are under pressure, but old guys like me are also under pressure. After all, the expenses of the family are all on me."

Unknowingly, the topic has shifted from the plight of a newcomer to the difficulty of serialization by an old cartoonist, which Shen Xin did not expect.

During the break, I was surprised to hear the assistants talk about it. However, this is also good, at least it also reminds the cartoonists.

There are too many accidents in the profession of a cartoonist. Sometimes the works are so popular that even the cartoonists may not understand the reason.

After returning from the 11th district, Shen Xin had to put the top priority. Xiangbei and Shangong remained the same. They also occupied the title of the book in the two magazines.

The period before the Spring Festival is easy to be impetuous, especially the return home ticket is more difficult to buy. Like Liu Ruoxing, he bought the ticket half a month in advance. As a result, there are still three or four days left before the Spring Festival. I was able to buy tickets to Hongchuan for my parents.

The return ticket is not easy to buy, but the ticket to Hongchuan is quite sufficient, so Liu Ruoxing invited his parents to Hongchuan for the New Year.

Among the assistants, Liu Ruoxing had more than one plan like this.

Asai Hui had just returned from District 11, Gao Hang and his wife also lived with their family. Together with Hangjian who had already settled in Hongchuan, there were more people staying in Hongchuan for the New Year for a while, not to mention Xi Muhan. New work, Yan Fei and Wang Wenhong who choose the subject matter.

In addition, to Shen Xin's surprise, Lu Ning also chose to stay in Hongchuan to discuss the new work with Su Han.

Using Lu Ning's method is to "strive to produce new comics as soon as possible."

"The Chinese New Year holiday is seven days, but if you feel bored, you can also come to the studio to paint."

Shen Xin made a joke to the assistant who did not leave Hongchuan. Unexpectedly, on the first day of the new year, Gao Hang, Liu Rui and Hui Asai came to the studio together, and the painting work went on normally.

However, it is the Chinese New Year after all, and it is impossible for Shen Xin to let them leave work at five o'clock in the afternoon as usual.

In the first and second grades of the first and second grades, the assistants can still get off work until five o'clock. After the third grade, the everyone's foundation will work until eight o'clock, and then sit together, watching TV and chatting.

Xi Muhan seems to be in trouble too. The selection of the subject matter is often the most difficult. Xi Muhan has read comics and materials for more than a month, and also delineated a few subjects, but she is not sure which subject she wants to be serialized in Juvenile p. .

Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei are more about suggesting and organizing materials. As for creation, they still rely more on Xi Muhan.

The two didn't want to put too much pressure on Xi Muhan. After all, even if Xi Muhan drew n, Shen Xin didn't necessarily have time to draw, so he still had to wait.

Shen Xin yawned and rubbed his eyes. After confirming that it was nine ten ten, he stood up.

It's still Chinese New Year, and he doesn't need to push himself too tightly, and the work is done.

Three assistants sat on the sofa in the lounge area, and the coffee table was filled with coke, potato chips, sugar and sunflower seeds.

Standing behind the three people, Shen Xin glanced at the TV and frowned. Since it was an animation of the Stone Gate of Destiny, it happened that A Zhi modified 51 and cracked the program.

"I remember, the animation seems to have been shown to episode 6, right?" Shen Xin said suddenly.

"Yes, we're making up, teacher." Liu Ruoxing picked up a can of Coke and held it up high.

Shen Xin took the Coke, "You should also pay attention. Drinking Coke regularly is not good for your health. Drink more tea at ordinary times."

"I see, teacher, you are paying attention to health preservation now." Liu Rui said back.

"Then of course, Teacher Ye is wrong. Teacher Jian already has children, do you know?" Shen Xin smiled.

"Yeah, Teacher Ye has posted several Weibo in a row, and I can't wait to let everyone in the world know about it." Liu Ruoxing said.

"Wait, did he post it?" Gao Hang asked quickly.

Jian Xiaomei was pregnant only when he went to the forum to find out. Ye Hexu's Weibo did not have this information.

"Yes, the gossip news was deleted later, according to Mr. Jian," Liu Ruoxing explained.

""

Shen Xin can't laugh or cry, but this is indeed in line with Jian Xiaomei's style of doing things.

Ye Hexu's remarks ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ seldom takes the occasion into consideration, and Jian Xiaomei will be trimmed in time whenever inappropriate remarks are made.

At the beginning, the two people were only the author and the editor. It was not convenient for Jian Xiaomei to "fix" Ye Hexu. Now, if Ye Hexu does not delete it, Jian Xiaomei will find a way to delete it.

"Teacher, are you planning to have children too?" Liu Rui asked again.

"There is such a plan, but" Shen Xin glanced at Xi Muhan who was discussing n with Yan Fei, "It's not good now. By the way, how is the evaluation of the Gate of Destiny Stone?"

Liu Ruoxing looked excited, "The production is not good. R has always been very high-level and has a high rating. According to the funds provided by pp and pp, it is also relatively sufficient, but teacher, you must know that the current plot of the Gate of Destiny is too flat. The audience is also waiting for sex, but there is no spoiler for the barrage, which is awesome."

The most classic of Destiny's Gate is the God's Turn in Episode 1, anyone who has read and comics knows this. Once the spoilers are revealed, people who have not read or comics will lose a surprise.

Therefore, Shen Xin does not recommend friends to spoil the gate of Destiny.
