Chapter 162: The beginning is not very good?
In the ACG 2D circle on the Internet, Xu Qingru and Jiang Xue collaborated on the "golden partner" of the masterpiece "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan". They can be said to be quite famous, so once their new work was released, these fans who were attracted by Xiaoyuan would of course pay attention to the new work as soon as possible.
But in reality, more martial arts comic readers who are not very concerned about the second-dimensional circle may have just heard of the work "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" and know some memes about it, but if they really want to ask them whether they have read Magic Yuan completely from beginning to end, they must not have it.
This is the difference between senior ACG enthusiasts and the second dimension of the animation industry and most ordinary readers.
Ordinary readers may not pay attention to who the author of the comic is, unless the comic can completely attract them and become a die-hard fan of the author, otherwise most comics will be just a pastime use to pass the time in their eyes.
Xun Xingping is such an ordinary reader. He is a newly-educated engraver. He is not particularly interested in comics. At most, he can just read them in his spare time. He even has no desire to read the extremely classic martial arts comic "Spring and Autumn Journey" that has been serialized for nearly ten years.
At this time, he was sitting on the high-speed rail and was visiting a skilled sculptor.
Sitting in the seat, he looked out the window, and was a little bored for a moment. Seeing that the passengers around him seemed to have picked up the comic magazine in the bag behind the seat, and looked at it with relish, he also took out the recently launched "Legend of the Ancient and Modern Times. Martial Arts" with great interest.
That's right, this parallel world is quite developed because of its cultural and entertainment industry. On some public transportation such as high-speed rail, there are free novels, comics and magazines for passengers to enjoy.
Unlike other comic readers who read "Legends of the Contemporary and Ancient Martial Arts", they directly read those well-known serialized comics. He did not have such a great purpose. He flipped it casually and came to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" with the first color page. The author was Xu Qingru & Jiang Xue.
Xun Xingping, who had never even heard of "The Magic Girl Xiaoyuan", naturally did not know Xu Qingru and Jiang Xue, but when he saw the names of these two, he naturally felt that they were both female creators.
"The female author actually came to draw martial arts comics? This is quite strange..."
Xun Xingping thought this way, but when he saw the first page of the comic, he could not look away!
As a sculptor struggling in the field of art, his artistic skills are naturally extraordinary, and ordinary comics cannot arouse his interest. It is basically because the author's painting skills are too poor, and there is really nothing that can interest him.
However, the color page of the comic's first book directly shows the author's super strength, and the beginning depicts the picture of a poem-
The peach blossoms without owners, and the tobacco is vast and the crows are accompanied by the old wells. There are always people who have been surrounded by the tobacco.
The author of the poem is Dai Fugu. During the Southern Song Dynasty, the Huaihe River Basin was the front line of the war between the Song and Jin Dynasties, and the villages and fields were devastatingly destroyed. The prosperous cities and rich villages in the past were depressed. Dai Fugu's poem describes the situation of a village beside the Huaihe River after the war.
Seeing such a color page and a short comic narration, Xun Xingping gradually immersed in the humiliating history of the Southern Song Dynasty, and then found that a martial arts story that was perfectly integrated with history was slowly presented to him. This story seemed to have a special charm, which made him completely immersed in it and unable to extricate himself!
In fact, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is a slow-tempered work, so logically, it should be the more attractive it goes to the back. Only the beginning of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" can only be considered as just a matter of course. However, this work has attracted many readers to the point of being able to perfectly conform to historical customs and folk customs.
Not only are sculptors in the art field like Xun Xingping, but also some professors and students in the history department in universities. When they discovered that such a comic can be completely fake and make readers mistakenly think that this martial arts story is something that has really happened in history, they all became interested in it.
...
Du Yang, a cartoonist, is also a veteran creator who works in the field of martial arts comics. There are three assistants in his studio. It is time to rest, but he heard his three assistants watching the latest "Legend of the Ancient and Modern Times. Martial Arts" while discussing:
"The "Spring and Autumn Journey" that has been serialized for so long is still so attractive. After watching this episode, I really want to watch the next episode as soon as possible!"
"Yes, "School of the Sword" is indeed so classic. I grew up watching him, and I fell in love with comics because of it, and then I went to this field..."
"By the way, what about the group that created the animation masterpiece "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan", their new series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?"
"I feel that the pace at the beginning is a bit slow, but the whole story is told in a leisurely manner, which is particularly attractive. Moreover, the painting is so great that all kinds of details are filled with them. The whole work is simply natural!"
"Xu Qingru is indeed a super genius in screenwriter. After reading the beginning, she was completely attracted to the comic world where martial arts and history are perfectly combined. I am looking forward to the follow-up!"
"There is a bonus to the top color pages, so this newspaper's results should be very good in this issue of the quick report, right?"
...
For some reason, Du Yang was a little angry when he heard such comments, but he was not good at using this to target his assistants. These people were all employed by him, and the expenses were calculated based on hourly wages. However, with Du Yang's original manuscript fee of only 1,000 yuan per bill, it was really difficult to hire three assistants, but if he didn't hire an assistant, he would not be able to complete the workload of one episode per week at all with his speed.
Du Yang took a random film of the newly launched "Legend of the Ancient and Ancient Martial Arts". His expression was quite complicated. He loved and hated the "God Arena" of "Legend of the Ancient and Ancient Martial Arts". He was an eliminated loser. However, as long as he said that he had serialized it in "Legend of the Ancient and Ancient Martial Arts", he would gain the respectful gaze of the industry cartoonists and greatly satisfy his vanity...
Unfortunately, it was just a brief glory. No, it was not considered glory at all. He had the honor of having published three serials in this magazine, but was cut in half again and again. Finally, under the tactful persuasion of the editor, he left the top magazine in the field of martial arts comics in a daze.
Du Yang hurriedly finished "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" with a provocative attitude. He felt deep down that this new series could attract a group of loyal niche fans with the super-powerful painting skills and outlined historical atmosphere, and he could gain a foothold. However, he said: "I feel that the beginning of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is not very good, and the protagonist is too slow to appear. This is a taboo! I see the popularity survey in this issue, it will definitely not work!"
