Chapter 16: Su Han and Her Script

In addition to the interesting story, the storyboard of "Shaky" is better than ordinary comics, the use of large and small frames, and some small tricks of the storyboard are also used just right.

At the same time, the composition of this cartoon is also very characteristic. Chen Zijiao will use a unique perspective to draw the deliberate or unintentional actions of female characters, which has an indescribable temptation.

Perhaps because he often draws notebooks, he also has a different understanding of the skin color of the characters. The highlights of the skin under the light allow readers to appreciate the character's breakable skin at a glance.

Shen Xin rubbed his forehead, if it was only Chen Zijiao, his pressure would not be too great.

Stories are the soul of comics. If there is no good story, no matter how good the artist is, Chen Zijiao will not be worried.

But it's different now. Thanks to Su Han's joining, the script of the comic is also guaranteed.

The subsequent development of "Shaky" is a complete mystery.

It may be a funny style like "The First Mix in History", it may be full of "meat" style like "The Queen of the Bag", or it may even be a story of a hero saving the world.

crumbling...

Su Han didn't say clearly what it was "shaky", what if the world is "shaky"? This is hero comics.

Moreover, Su Han is a writer who has completed the book and is very popular. There is no such thing as a "collapse" of the story. Therefore, the subsequent development of the story should not be beyond her control.

"It's really good... It's not easy to beat him. The only good news is that Su Han has never written a novel about lightheartedness." Shen Xin took a sip of coffee, bitter.

Yan Fang looked at the disappointed Shen Xin, opened his mouth, gritted his teeth after some ideological struggle, and continued to ask, "I thought about it, but I still think I should tell you about this."

"What's the matter?" Shen Xin looked at Yan Fang in surprise.

"Have you read this month's "Monthly Comic Futura"?" Yan Yan asked.

The average small magazine usually has only one manga magazine, but a giant like "Comic Futura" usually has a monthly magazine or a sibling publication.

"Monthly? No." Shen Xin shook her head.

Yan Yan took out another magazine from his satchel, and placed it in front of Shen Xin, "This issue of "Monthly Comic Futura" is also very exciting, I went to all the bookstores, and the manager recommended this magazine. It is said that the sales volume of this magazine is also in the top positions in its history, and the reason is the comic on the cover."

"The manga on the cover?" Shen Xin's eyes then moved to the cover of the magazine.

A teenager dressed as a middle school student hugged a diary tightly. Below the figure, there are two characters written, "Crime and Punishment".

But Shen Xin's attention was attracted by a line of words under "Punishment".

"Original Work: Su Han".

"Eh? Su Han? Is this a person?" Shen Xin asked in surprise.

"This is "Comic Futura", and its weekly magazine is the largest-selling magazine in China. Therefore, there is no need to doubt the quality of the story. As a best-selling author with a single book sales of 1 million copies, Su Han has the strength to serve as the author of "Comic Futura" The original work." Yan Yu explained.

"I know, but can she really take care of both sides?"

And it's a completely different type.

Shen Xin put a big question mark in her heart.

Yan Yan spread his hands, "I don't know, who knows what she thinks."

Shen Xin looked at the cover again, "Painting, Ye Hexu (xu), his name sounds familiar, Sister Yan, do you know who he is?"

"The 18-year-old genius cartoonist published five short comics in the "Monthly Comic Futura" last year. This year, these five comics were published as a collection and sold 500,000 copies in two months.

"

"It sounds very powerful." Shen Xin laughed dryly, "Can I read this cartoon?"

"Okay, but don't spoil it, I haven't watched it yet!" Yan Yu reminded.

"Got it." Shen Xin quickly flipped through the magazine and found "Crime and Punishment".

This is a slightly heart-wrenching story about a high school student named Yang Chen who is often bullied at school. One night when I came home from self-study, I opened the drawer to look for refills, but found a blank diary.

He had never seen this diary, but the diary appeared in his drawer. The cover said "Book of Prophecy" (Book of Prophecy), and each page had two boxes above and below, and the box on the top had "question ", and the square below is printed with "answer".

In the first episode, Yang Chen is still being bullied by his schoolmates, and those who bully him are even related to people in society. It seems that Yang Chen couldn't get rid of the misfortune of being bullied before graduation, and the function of that notepad was not reflected in the first chapter.

Students, diaries, reasoning...

The combination of these elements made Shen Xin think of a comic - "Death Note".

In "Death Note", Ye Shenyue uses "Death Note" to achieve "justice". But "Crime and Punishment" is different. Judging from the prompt in the first chapter, this notebook is more inclined to "foresee". Moreover, Yang Chen's fate is much more miserable than that of Ye Shenyue.

"Death Note" talks about "what is justice", while "Punishment" expresses "resistance and self-help".

Shen Xin didn't expect that someone in this world would think of using a notebook as a carrier to reason. From this point of view, it is similar to "Death Note".

The drawing of "Punishment" is also excellent. The artist named Ye Hexu has a good grasp of the story, the storyboard is smooth and done in one go, and the composition of each grid is almost the best choice.

This painter is better than Chen Zijiao... No, Chen Zijiao has no way to compare with him, he is not at the same level at all.

Ye Hexu's drawing skills are no less than most famous cartoonists in terms of realism, precision, and even the grasp of comic language.

The more important point is that, I don't know if it is a psychological factor, Shen Xin feels that Su Han is more concerned about "Punishment", and the quality of the story of "Punishment" is also higher than that of "Tumbling".

The original author is good at stories, while the artist is good at storyboarding and painting.

Such a combination looks so familiar... Isn't it the big and small teachers?

It shouldn't be such a coincidence, right?

Shen Xin fixed her eyes on the cover again.

"How is it?" Seeing Shen Xin's expression was a little strange, Yan Yu was a little worried.

"This "Crime and Punishment" should be the new pillar of "Monthly Comic Futura", right?" Shen Xin asked.

"I'm not sure...but the combination of Ye Hexu and Su Han does have the potential to become a new pillar, but it's a pity..." Yan Yu sighed.

"What's the pity?" Shen Xin asked puzzled.

"If "Criminal Punishment" is published in "Monthly Comic Futura", it means that he will lose the qualification to run for the "Newcomer King"." Yan Kun said.

"The rookie king?" Shen Xin blinked.

As a person who wants to become a full-time cartoonist, Shen Xin certainly knows that every October, the magazines represented by the "three major magazines" will hold a comic festival in Hongchuan. At the grand ceremony, the editors of the major magazines will select many manga awards, and there will also be a lot of bonuses. The Rookie King is one of the awards, but Shen Xin does not know the details.

"Is that... published in "Monthly Comic Futura" has anything to do with the selection of 'Rookie King'?" Shen Xin asked in surprise.

"Of course it has something to do with it! And...it has a lot to do with it." Yan Kun said seriously.
