Chapter 168 The Serialization Meeting Begins

It was just a good intention of Li Xi to help Chu Yu Weiwen Hua Ming animate before, but if Chu Yu really focused on animation, then she would be shooting herself in the foot.

After finishing speaking, after Li Xi read the original manuscript of the four-chapter comic with initial D, he couldn't wait to look at the name draft of the five to ten chapters drawn by Chu Yu.

The original comics of the first four episodes are just the foreshadowing of the encounter and conflict between Fujiwara Takukai and Takahashi Keisuke.

In the end, all the famous mountain riders in the whole autumn thought that the person who won Keisuke Takahashi in the AE86 was Fujiwara Takumi's father

But on Saturday's agreed final day, it was Fujiwara Takumi who was tempted by his father's tank of gasoline to come to the scene.

86 is up the mountain!

This is not only a stalk about the initial D in the parallel world, but also the beginning of Fujiwara Takumi's career as a racing driver in the comics.

In the following plot, it is the duel between Fujiwara Takukai's 86 and Takahashi Keisuke's FD.

Although it was just a title draft similar to a comic draft, Li Xi still watched intently.

Akagi REDSUNS all the drivers came on the stage, in the sketches, the vehicles drifting almost close to the road guardrail, the handsome and artistic vehicles, the crowd onlookers, the 86 bearing the dignity of the autumn famous mountain riders

The battle between Fujiwara Takukai and Keisuke didn't end until the tenth chapter of the comic, but Li Xi didn't feel procrastination at all.

Handsome drifting and tail flicking, nervous and dignified Keisuke during the race, and Takumi Fujiwara, who is in second gear and always sticks to Keisuke on the corners while driving with one hand.

There is a feeling of blood surging.

Li Xi personally doesn't like hot-blooded works. In comparison, works like Natsume's Book of Friends are more in line with her hobbies.

But Initial D, even for her, looked interesting.

Although she was a little worried that Chu Yu's plot arrangement for Xia Shu would arouse readers' disgust, but aside from these, the rhythm, style of painting, and plot of Initial D were all excellent.

Even in Li Xi's opinion, if the plot of this work unfolds, it may be more liked by fans than Natsume's Book of Friends.

After all, although there are many female fans of Natsume's Friends Book, the male audience in the Dragon Kingdom comics is still mostly male, which is also the limitation of Natsume's work.

If the Dragon Country comics industry is dominated by female readers, it might not be a problem for Natsume to double his grades.

But since the initial D is still born, if it can be successfully serialized, then Chu Yu may be able to gain a lot of attention from male fans with this work.

Li Xi let out a long sigh, got up and tidied up his dress and some messy hair. Soon, an image of a professional elite with impeccable details appeared again.

"Work hard, Chu Yu"

Li Xi picked up the comic draft, stopped and turned to look at Chu Yu before leaving.

"There are many cartoonists who are amazing with one work, the second work is not satisfactory, and the third work tends to be mediocre!"

"But after knowing you for more than a year, I didn't know until now that you are not such a flash in the pan."

"It is impossible for such a person to continuously create works such as Kenshin, Natsume, Unknown Flower Name, and Initial D."

Li Xi rarely talks about this with his cartoonists, but after seeing the first ten chapters of the work with Initial D, Li Xi finally couldn't help it.

"You may be the most talented cartoonist I have ever come into contact with. In time, the pillar of Xuangui Comics will be you."

"That's why you need to work hard. If you don't have enough talent like those untalented cartoonists, then you shouldn't have enough effort!" Li Xi didn't want to say too much.

I can only express some of my own experiences and feelings.

"Understood, thank you Li Xi for your attention!" Chu Yu nodded.

"Ashamed to say, as your comic editor, I have never been able to give you too much advice and help in terms of comic plots, so don't worry, just create comics with peace of mind! I will definitely create this work with initial D. Help you get a chance to serialize!" Li Xi said seriously.

After speaking, Li Xi left Chu Yu's residence without any hesitation.

After leaving Chu Yu's house, Li Xi drove home and took out the comic draft of Initial D to read it again.

There is obvious confidence on the beautiful face. There are four serial vacancies on the water edge. If such a work cannot get a serial seat in the water core, then the journal of water core will not only sell several million per week. .

As for Huang Ming, he took advantage of his free time to visit one after another of his acquaintances in the animation industry that he had known over the years.

Bang bang bang!

"Who!" The door opened, and there was a fat man weighing at least two hundred pounds in the room.

T-shirts, pajama pants, slippers, and the oily head of the curly hair and a mixture of smells resembling Houttuynia from the room.

Huang Ming's eyes widened, and for a moment he decisively began to hold his breath, without showing any expression on his face.

"Old Huang? What are you doing here with me?" Fatty's eyes were a little small, his chin was full of stubble, and he looked very sloppy.

"How about we find a place to talk?" Huang Ming said with a smile, but his face was a little red.

He could hardly hold his breath.

"Where are you looking? Just in my house? I have to wash my face and dress when I go out. What a hassle! I haven't gone out for a week! I don't want to exercise too much!"

"Let's find a place to talk, I'll wait for you downstairs!" Huang Ming didn't give Fatty a chance to explain, he walked directly to the stairs, gasping for breath.

It was so terrifying, Huang Ming, who was a little bit clean, couldn't figure out why his friend could stay in such an environment.

In the past few years, this person was a famous painting supervisor in Modu, and his professional ability was absolutely strong enough. It was just because a certain popular light novel three years ago was changed to a work because the level of the producer was not enough, the allocation of funds and budget was unreasonable, and the animation company management The reason for the confusion made the animation effect very unsatisfactory, and it directly became a masterpiece of collapse.

In the face of the overwhelming scolding from fans of the original work, he had some social fear and psychological sensitivity, and he closed himself directly. In addition, the producer took the blame on him, and the company leaders criticized him. Since then, he has resigned and left. He took up the post of painting supervisor, rented a private house in Modu, and played games every day to get by.

Of course, Huang Ming has vaguely heard about it. He started living in a house and worked as a painter of informal works on an informal website. It is said that his works are famous for their delicate style and attractiveness. There are many loyal fans on the Internet asking for updates.

Soon, a fat man in his thirties, Liu Jian, put on a suit and leather shoes, tied a tie and walked downstairs.

If Huang Ming hadn't seen what he looked like ten minutes ago, I'm afraid he would have thought he was an office worker from some company.

The two found a cafe.

"Old Huang, haven't seen each other for more than two years? What are you doing to me?" Liu Jian asked.

"I want to make an animation work. I would like to invite you to be responsible for a series of matters such as the painting of this work."

Huang Ming didn't ask anyone to say what position he was looking for, but directly asked him to be responsible for what.

At that time, if you can find someone, give him some subordinates, if you can't find it, let him do it himself!

"Old Huang, you know that my animation industry has become like a cloud for me. Now I just want to be a quiet house, play games all day, read cartoons, and take out Coke is enough. Why are you so tired?" Liu Jian waved his hand and said softly.

"You're already thirty-seven years old, how about salted fish like this?" Huang Ming frowned.

"It takes a little dream to be a human being!"

"What's wrong with being a salted fish, what are your dreams? My dream is to be a house!"

Liu Jian seemed to have a good relationship with Huang Ming at the beginning. Although Huang Ming talked a little too deeply, he was not angry at all.

"On the other hand, Lao Huang, the work you made during this period of time is really beautiful! I was moved several times by watching it."

"It's a coincidence that the work I want to make this time, the big boss is the author, Shui Xin, who has never heard of the flower name."

"Shui Xin? Isn't the owner Nine Stars? The big boss means there is a second boss?" Liu Jian looked at Huang Ming with a strange expression.

"That's right, the second boss is me!" Huang Ming took out the work draft of 5cm per second and the Voice of the Stars from his bag and handed it to Liu Jian.

For these two works, Chu Yu had already filed the records in Longguo, and the copyrights had been registered, so Huang Ming was not worried about being plagiarized by leaking them out, and the people he contacted were all trustworthy. Otherwise, you won't be able to play with him.

"You haven't worked for three years, haven't you! The savings from the past should be running out, how about you, come and help me? When I become the boss, I will definitely be very strict. If you don't do well, I will scold you and criticize you. Whether it's done well or not, after the work is over, we are all friends as we are now. Come here, maybe you will start a new animation life? No matter how bad it is, you can get a salary and be an otaku for a few more months. , to delay the time to go out and look for work!"

"Mr. Shui Xin's new work." Liu Jian looked at the work in front of him, stretched out his hand and picked up the manuscript.

An hour and a half.

Huang Ming walked out of the cafe in high spirits, and Liu Jian, who was following behind him, seemed to have a more confident expression.

In the following time, Huang Ming visited many people one after another.

Supervision, storytelling, setting, music, art, color.

Many are professional talents, and some are all-rounders, who can hold multiple jobs by one person.

These people are either frustrated people in the workplace, or people who have changed careers, or even elites from the original animation industry, current convenience store owners, and of course some in-service employees of some large companies take over private work.

But no matter what their current occupations are, at least once, they were quite professional talents in the animation industry of the Magic City.

And most importantly, none of them are paid very much.

The formation of the animation team takes a considerable amount of time.

During this time, Jiuxing's meeting on the serial seats of Shuiyuan began.

In the four vacancies, in addition to the three works that were cut in half, Mysterious Realm of Thousand Stars, Chaos Star, and Squirrel Girl, there were also vacancies created by the official completion of the Crimson Abyss.

Therefore, in this serialization meeting, everyone's expressions were not relaxed.

After all, after the end of Taizhu's Crimson Abyss, before the rise of new Taizhu works, the sales of Waterfront may decline.

Under such circumstances, the four seats in this serial meeting are particularly important.

I don't expect any amazing works to emerge from these four works, but at least they should be above the average level. It is best to come up with one or two more interesting works to attract fans of the Crimson Abyss, so that they will not pass too fast.

Again, it can't be like the two works of Thousand Stars Mystery Realm and Luanxing. The book of friends of Natsume that was serialized in the same period has occupied the third most popular ranking on the water edge after the end of the Crimson Abyss. These two works are better, serialized in the same period. , In the same period, the authors of the two works can become brothers, and they are so predestined.

At the serialization meeting, a group of editors sat upright, and Li Xi's aura was undoubtedly the strongest.

After the end of the scarlet abyss, Tang Xin's dream world also jumped to the first place in the popularity ranking on the water edge, and the Natsume friend account in charge of Li Xi's subordinate's popularity also stabilized at the third place on the water edge. Location.

Such Li Xi naturally has the strongest aura among the many editors present.

Even Chen Chu, the editor of Dragon Soul, was a little weaker in front of Li Xi.

Of course, no matter what the achievements of the editors in the audience are, the real boss of this serialization meeting is the old man Deng He, the editor-in-chief.

"Okay, let's start the meeting!" Deng He spoke.
