I’m Walking the Career Line In Dog Blood - Chapter 119
“Have you read it all? Come and vote now. If you think it should be published in a hurry, please raise your hand.”
Just as the editor-in-chief finished speaking, most people in the office raised their hands with a swipe, and none of the female editors fell behind. The rest of the editors hesitated for a while: “If it’s good-looking or not, I think it’s good-looking. It’s just that the market for female-themed comics is not good.”
“About this,” Editor Qian raised his hand, “I think it’s an advantage instead.”
“How?”
Editor Qian remembered what the little boss and her analyzed before. She was a little shy and suddenly had a lot of courage, so she stood up: “Because the subject of female comics is blank, she took the first bite of meat. The person who can lead the market and get the most benefit, so I think the advantages of this attempt outweigh the disadvantages.”
“Even so, isn’t it a little risky to rush it?” the man asked another question.
“Now that the series of “Heroes of the Desert” has just ended, readers need a comic of the same type as a buffer. Suddenly a female-themed comic is published, and as the main theme, I am worried that it will cause those old readers to dissatisfied.”
Faced with this question, Editor Qian also nodded: “Because, most of the readers of our comic magazine are actually attracted by “Heroes of the Desert”. There are certain requirements for quality. But at present, none of our magazine’s other comic works have reached such a high level.
“But you can see the quality of this “Spirit Girl”, to the extent that any page can be cut out as a cover, and it has the same outstanding scene as “The Heroes of the Desert” Drawing skills.”
Everyone in the editorial department discussed for a long time, and finally the editor-in-chief made a decision: “This issue will be added to “The Royal Girl”, and the second issue will judge whether to continue publishing based on the letters of readers.”
Everyone should be well, and editor Qian is even more confident: the small boss will create another industry myth!
Therefore, the comics after “The Legend of Heroes of the Desert” became “The Spiritual Girl”.
The day before summer vacation.
“Ah ah ah ah, tomorrow “Heroes of the Desert” will be released in a single book, I really think it is tomorrow, and I can buy it right away. And I want to watch the next one, that one What happened to the sudden appearance of the King of the Western Regions? And what is the mysterious identity of the proprietress A Xiang? Damn Yi Nong, how many holes has he dug?” Zhang Wei howled while holding the latest “Painting Friends” magazine.
“Don’t you have a full set of “Drawing Friends” magazines? If you can’t find other good-looking magazines, you can also look at other comics magazines, such as “Xia Dao”?” Others asked .
“”Xia Dao” can’t be read at all now, I don’t want to see those comics that are not logical, except for fighting and killing.”
An Yinong packed the table while watching them discuss the plot with great interest.
In fact, he was always curious back then, but the plot came to an abrupt end at a critical moment, and everyone who watched it reacted. Now that this requirement has been met, it turns out that the reader’s appetite is… so good?
“Tomorrow is a holiday!” The happy classmates threw the note, and was chased and beaten by the classmates on duty with brooms.
Tomorrow is the weekend and the official start of the summer vacation. Some classmates are discussing going to work to earn some money. An Yinong has not yet figured out how to spend this summer vacation.
Think about it, maybe it’s painting, tutoring, painting, tutoring?
“Speaking of which, there are a thousand signed books by the author in the single book of “Desert Heroes: The Devil’s City”, I must grab it!”
“Me too.”
“Do you want to check the sales tomorrow?” An Yinong thought.
The next day, the middle school students were on vacation, and the brand new “Desert Heroes: Devil City” appeared on the recommendation shelves of various bookstores, and the long-awaited readers seemed to be flooding in.
“Boss, a copy of “Heroes of the Desert”.”
“Boss, I want four copies.”
The young man who wanted four copies was immediately besieged by others: “You buy so many at a time, what will happen to the people behind?”
“A few people in my family have to watch, what can I do?”
The owner of the bookstore was surprised and reassured: “Don’t worry, we have enough stock, everyone can buy it.” But as soon as he turned around, he called the publishing house and wanted more comic book.
I thought it was just a rookie cartoonist, so I didn’t need to prepare too much, so the boss bought fifty copies. He is very regretful now, that is, one morning, the stock is out, and the rest can only wait for tomorrow.
Where did the readers wait so long? They turned around and prepared to go to another bookstore to have a look.
“Hey, Zhen Weilong’s “Blood Knife” is also very good, do you want to buy this?”
The boss took the opportunity to sell other things, and the readers pouted: “Forget it, I don’t want to buy junk.”
Seeing the readers leave, the boss turned to look at the pile of comics that could not be sold: “Hey, he is an old comic artist with guaranteed sales, even a fraction of his No.”
An Yinong was sitting in the car, watching the store owner put up a handwritten signboard that “Heroes of the Desert” could accept reservations, he said to the driver in front: “Uncle Cai, go to another bookstore to read Look.”
“Are you reading a new comic from the publishing house? It’s very well drawn, and I see people in my son’s class reading it. Now that it’s selling so well, you’re happy too, right? “
“Yeah.”
Meanwhile, the new issue of Drawing Friend magazine also appeared in various newsstands. With the anticipation of seeing the new martial arts comics, readers bought back the magazine and opened “Painting Friends”…
“Huh? It’s a modern background, wow, there is an indescribable feeling, the sun in this background is so weird, it seems to be looking at me… sigh, keep watching.”
The opening of the comic is a scene of a girl running wildly on the road with a sandwich in her mouth. She had a cute face, but she became very hideous because she was worried about being late.
In the end, when they turned down, what appeared in front of them was the daily life of an ordinary middle school student, and the background was so familiar, those red-painted signboards, those tenement buildings that lived under the shop, and The lively neighbors are so real that they seem to be their own stories.
Finally, the reader realizes that this is actually a female protagonist. It seems that the only difference in this protagonist is that he inherited the martial arts hall left by his grandfather, and dreams of carrying forward the family martial arts.
Female readers find it interesting, but male readers still find comics from a female perspective unfamiliar and bizarre. They wanted to give up the book, and some even wanted to write a letter to protest – why not give more martial arts comics.
At this time, a change occurred. The heroine fought to protect a nerd who was bullied by gangsters. The jade pendant was broken, and her blood stained the jade pendant.
In an instant, the wind and clouds moved, the space seemed to be distorted, and the leaves were transformed into a vague, huge image of a nine-tailed fox under the control of the wind.
The graceful, noble and beautiful ‘demon spirit’ appeared in front of the girl.
A narration appears, interspersed with a close-up of the shocked face:
“The world in which human beings lives is like the front of the paper. We never explore what is on the back of the paper, and we will never be able to pass. However, for some special reasons, a few people with super inspiration Occasionally, you can see the world behind the paper. This kind of person is usually called a warlock, an inspiration, a psychic… But they have a real name, a psionicist.
“And the most special type of psionicists is the ‘Spiritual Master’, who can sign contracts with powerful ‘demon spirits’ and borrow their power.”
As soon as I closed my eyes and blinked, the familiar and ordinary world suddenly revealed an astonishing side.
The heroine saw the sun and the moon appearing in the sky at the same time, the invisible air seemed to have its own shape, the stone statue on the side opened its eyes, smiled strangely at her, and everything around All should share this laughter.
At this time, an elegant and noble nine-tailed fox stepped on the moon wheel and came to her: “Welcome to the new world, Royal Spirit Master.”
At this point, the comic comes to an abrupt end, without telling the reader what will happen next, what is going on in this strange world.
The reader picks up the magazine and shakes it in disbelief. It’s really gone, and that’s it.
& nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp;
Readers were amazed by this subversive ‘inner world’ background, and also curious about what happened to the protagonist, why did she see ‘inner world’ because of that drop of blood?
Also, what happened to the nine-tailed fox, why did it appear, is the jade pendant a seal?
They have too many questions and want to know the next plot.
Male readers are just curious, female readers are simply shocked, because the daily life of the protagonist is really too daily, and it overlaps with the lives of most girls by more than 80%, so they watch It is especially immersive at times.
“At that moment, it seemed as if I, like Su Xue, saw a different world, and all the things that were accustomed to have a different appearance in that ‘world’, including myself.”
“It’s so pretty! It’s so pretty!”
Watch this time.”
The editor-in-chief opened the first letter: “It’s about the new “Spiritual Girl”. … He said he liked it very much, and hope to have more serials next time?”
“Really?” Other editors also squeezed in and took out the letters sent to the editorial department one by one. Seven of the ten letters were talking about this new female-themed comic, Six of the seven letters expressed expectation or liking, and only one expressed doubt or dislike.
“So, we… won?”
After a few seconds of silence, the editorial department once again heard warm cheers.
“The draft of the second chapter can be corrected. In addition, I will go to the ‘Blue Ocean’ bar tonight, I will treat you.” The editor-in-chief said generously, and the office again burst into applause.
“One more thing, editor Qian, congratulations, you have officially become the editor of our magazine.”
Editor Qian was stunned by this huge surprise: “Really, really? … I’m an official editor?”
“Small, small boss, thank you, I am the official editor now, and I will invite you to drink in the future!”
When the drunk editor called Qian Qian, the bitter little boss was still rushing homework. Thinking about people being drunk outside, he is still fighting with ABC, it’s really…
“Hey, can you do it? Don’t get too drunk, go home early.”
“I see, little boss…you will definitely be a good man in the future and care about girls. But unfortunately you are too young to feel guilty…” Editor Qian spoke incoherently , there is no logic in speaking.
“Where are you now?”
An Yinong put down his pen, is it his editor in charge and an employee?
The money editor over there reported an address, An Yinong also heard the sound of knocking on the phone booth, and a man teasing voice: “Sister, are you looking for a lover? See if I can do it? ?”
“You go away.” Editor Qian appeared to be calling out his colleague’s name, and then hung up.
An Yinong frowned, the security of Hong Kong City is not very good in this era, and this bar is not in the wealthy area that the police often patrol.
He put on his clothes and went downstairs. After thinking about it, he brought a bodyguard at home.
“Master, where are you going?” Granny Lian hurried out.
“I’ll pick up someone and be back soon.”
