Manga Guidebook - Chapter 122

Many people did not expect that a short animation with basically no publicity would be so popular, which is beyond the imagination of many people.

Fang Yan of Tomato.com vomited blood in frustration. After all, the copyright that he spent so much money on has become like this.

On the contrary, Liu Yingying was very proud and received many awards from the leaders.

Affected by this turmoil, Chen Zijun also received a lot of benefits. The issue of “Forest of Fireflies” that Zijin Magazine released received a lot of orders.

April Breeze’s pseudonym has also increased a lot in terms of popularity in the comics industry, and even with “Four Lies” ranked first this week.

Chen Zijun was naturally very happy about this.

There is also Beiyu Studio, because this work has let people know its strength, and some small projects have also come to the door.

Moreover, due to this influence, some people are also eyeing the film and television adaptation rights of “Forest of Fireflies”. The comic animation is already popular, and its popularity is not low. If it is made into a web drama, it must be almost the same.

And because the duration is not long, and the plot is simple, it does not require gorgeous special effects, the cost is definitely low, it is simply a baby.

Some people didn’t know where to find Chen Zijun’s mobile phone number, and people kept coming to him to discuss this matter.

“Mr. April, do you really stop thinking about it? We, Huayu Film and Television Company, really want to buy your film and television adaptation rights. If you are not satisfied with the price, we can discuss it. How about we meet in person when we have time?”

“I’m sorry, I don’t have the idea of ​​selling film and television adaptation rights now, I’m very sorry.” Chen Zijun refused.

He really does not have the idea of ​​selling film and television adaptation rights now. He has checked that the works created by this Huayu Film and Television Company in the past are simply rubbish, and it is completely a money-swindling company.

In the past two days, there have been large and small companies wanting to buy film and television copyrights, but those who intend to buy are basically not serious, so Chen Zijun directly rejected this idea, and his attitude is very firm, not to sell!

Su Jing knew this, but didn’t say anything, just let him decide for himself.

The weather was not good today. It was raining, and it was raining non-stop. Today is Sunday, a day off. Chen Zijun handed in the drawings as early as Friday.

Today, what is to be completed is the drawing for the next week, and the storyboard was finished yesterday.

Among the three assistants, Zhang Xuehai asked for leave, and only Meng Dong and Du Mingyuan came.

“Teacher April.”

“My son.”

The two greeted Chen Zijun, who responded, “Come in.”

Then a towel was given to each of them, and they were partially soaked by the rain.

“thanks.”

Just when Chen Zijun was about to go back to painting, Meng Dong stopped him.

“Teacher April, can I trouble you with something?”

“you say.”

“That’s it, I have a comic that I want you to read for me. I finished it in my spare time some time ago. I want you to help me see what level it belongs to? I want to try to contribute.”

Chen Zijun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “Of course, you can show it to me.”

Du Mingyuan also came over curiously.

Meng Dong took out a stack of drawings from his bag and handed it to Chen Zijun.

Chen Zijun took it, sat in his seat, and opened the comic.

This cartoon drawn by Meng Dong is called “Phoenix Dance”, and it tells the story of Wu Yan, a dancer in the palace, who made unremitting efforts to complete the most beautiful dance in the world, the last words left by her mother.

At present, the plot only has the first two chapters, each of which is more than 30 pages, and Chen Zijun finished it soon.

“Teacher April, how is it?” Meng Dong said anxiously, anxiously awaiting the trial.

Chen Zijun did not answer immediately, but handed the comic to Du Mingyuan.

“Brother Du, take a look.”

Du Mingyuan took it and looked at it. After a long time, Chen Zijun asked, “How do you feel?”

“I’m not really interested in this style of comics myself, but this comic is a little too bland, and there are problems with the storyboards.”

“what?”

Chen Zijun said: “You want to show off your painting skills too much, putting the cart before the horse, but your painting skills don’t seem to be very good, the plot is very bland and there is no conflict.”

“But I’m laying the groundwork ahead, isn’t it bad to have a conflict ahead?”

“But readers won’t give you too much time to set up.”

Chen Zijun is still a little confident in his judgment of the work. Whether it is a novel or a comic, the beginning is very important, because only an interesting beginning can attract readers. There are many works now, and generally the first few chapters are not interesting, and many people will not follow. Look it up, it’s useless for you to set up too much.

Of course, this is not absolute, after all, anything can happen now.

“Also, your plot, um, how do you say it? It’s not very good, so you still need to change it. Of course, my opinion is not absolute, you will wait for Su Jing to come and ask her, she is the editor, I should give you professional advice.”

“I see.” Meng Dong lowered his head and complained, “Teacher, you are still strict, and you don’t show mercy at all.”

Chen Zijun smiled: “It’s what you said just now that I gave you my opinion, and when I gave it to you, I was strict.”

“I’ll just say it casually, you don’t need to worry about it, teacher.”

Meng Dong took a deep breath and regained his self-confidence: “I’ve started work.”

The three continued to draw “Four Lies”. Only then did Chen Zijun realize that the tools were a little worn out, and the G pen was a little broken by himself.~www.mtlnovel.com~Chen Zijun planned to buy a new set of tools in two days.

Because Zhang Xuehai was not there, Meng Dong took over his task, while Du Mingyuan still painted the background.

Du Mingyuan’s background is much stronger than before, probably because he is also working hard during this time, and Chen Zijun gave him some note-taking experience before, at least in terms of background, he has taken charge of himself.

At noon, Chen Zijun personally cooked, made a pot of double-cooked pork, fried a little chili, and ate it with everyone at Tokipanzhuang. Today, except for Mr. Ji Wen, everyone was there. Zhong Xiaqing, Lu Ziyun, and the others were also very helpful to Chen Zijun. The friendliness of this time has become a friend.

And at this time, in the Cup of Spring, the review of works has come to a very important juncture.

Perhaps because there are too many works, the review of works is much slower than in previous years. In the past, the results are almost ready in May, and the review has not yet been completed.

But now it’s also at the end.

At present, after layers of selection, ten comics have finally been left.
