Chapter 1132: Editorial Department

The next day, when Shen Xin woke up, it was nearly eight o'clock. After washing up, she called Wang Wenhong, only to find out that the two of them were eating in the restaurant with six assistants. [New! Thinking! Road! Chinese website www.sLzWw hand typing]

Shen Xin and Xi Muhan came to the restaurant, but saw several assistants surrounded by Wang Wenhong, as if they were talking about something.

"What's wrong?" After sitting down, Shen Xin looked at Wang Wenhong in puzzlement.

"The photos of the teacher's participation in the annual meeting yesterday were posted. Anyway, readers in District 11 are discussing it?"

"..."

Seeing Wang Wenhong's grinning face, Shen Xin didn't know how to answer, so she shook her head helplessly.

Xi Muhan became interested, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Surprised, surprised... Many people thought you were forty or fifty years old, but they didn't expect you to be so young." Yan Fei took over the conversation.

"Soul of Chess" has been serialized in "Youth Leap" for more than ten years. At that time, "Gate of Eternal Life" was serialized for only a few years.

"Who passed it on?" Shen Xin asked.

"There's more than one. Think about it. Before, you haven't shown up in District 11. Suddenly posting your photos can easily attract comic fans. Moreover, "Dunk" is the hottest comic in District 11. Those cartoonists passed it on to you. The photos taken together, in a sense, are also for the purpose of gaining popularity. This kind of thing...should be common, right?" Wang Wenhong spread his hands.

"I just think this kind of enthusiasm is a bit inexplicable. Whenever you take a photo with me, it will become a passion?" Shen Xin said helplessly.

Although he is not the original work of "Dunk", he is also very happy to see that fans in this world like this comic. However, he still hopes that everyone will focus on the work itself, not him.

"Of course it's very popular, but you don't know it. In other words, many bookstores and publishing houses wanted to invite you to sign books, but I rejected it." Wang Wenhong was triumphant.

"Why?" Shen Xin was puzzled.

"Do you still remember the first book signing, what happened?" Wang Wenhong asked back.

Second book signing...

Shen Xin has black lines all over her head.

This book signing brought extremely serious consequences to Shen Xin. In order to save Zuo Yuan,

Almost fell off the building.

Although his life was safe, he had to rest for two or three months because of a sprained left arm.

For a cartoonist, this is serious business, almost a career bet.

"I think it's okay? If it wasn't for the autograph session at that time, Mr. Zuo Yuan might have disappeared. Now, Mr. Zuo Yuan is in charge of cute comics, and his comics are also very popular in China. I think it's very good." Shen Xin laughed.

Wang Wenhong said dumbly, only a series of things happened that day, and it did change the fate of some people. Thinking about it this way, Shen Xin did the right thing.

Xi Muhan secretly pulled Shen Xin's clothes, and muttered: "Brother, you must never do this in the future. Do you have a family now?"

"I don't go out very much now." Shen Xin looked innocent, and ordered a bowl of udon noodles, "Okay, after dinner, hurry to the editorial department of "Young Leap", and you guys... "

Shen Xin's eyes flashed, and they landed on Gao Hang's six bodies, scaring them into a smart fight.

"You guys don't understand the language, so stay in the hotel today and wait for us to come back...don't get lost."

"..."

The other six people didn't know how to refute. They nodded and shook their heads, which seemed even more wrong. They could only lower their heads and eat the noodles in front of them.

...

It turned out that Gu Qianming wanted to drive to pick up Shen Xin, but Shen Xin refused.

The editorial department of "Young Leap" is not a big place, just find a taxi, but the taxi is for 4 people, excluding the driver, there are still three people, and they have 4 people, so they can only find two taxis.

"Young Leap" is located in a relatively prosperous area in Beijing. The entire building belongs to the group, and the entire building is thirty to forty stories high.

The four came to the front desk on the first floor, Wang Wenhong filled out the visitor card, and the front desk contacted the editorial department of "Youth Leap", and Gu Qianming came out of the elevator in just over a minute.

"Teacher Shen, you guys came so early." Before Gu Qianming came over, she stretched out her hands, ready to shake hands with Shen Xin.

"It's not early, is it? It's almost 1 o'clock." Shen Xin smiled, "Is Teacher Uematsu here?"

"No, I'm still on the way. In order to make up for today's work, Mr. Uematsu probably stayed up all night." After shaking hands with the four people one by one, Gu Qianmei invited the four people into the elevator and pressed the 18th floor, "I also It’s just hearsay, after all, I’m not Uematsu-sensei’s editor.”

"I think...it's possible, right?" Shen Xin recalled "The Gate of Eternal Life" and said sincerely, "Mr. Uematsu has really worked hard."

"The Gate of Eternal Life" is not comparable to "dunk" and "The Wasteland Hunter" in terms of fighting scenes, but it also has its own unique features. First, it is set out, especially when it involves the reversal of the true and false "Holy Gate", which surprised many readers; second, it is estimated to be stable, and it has been serialized for nearly a year before it has a tendency to collapse , which is extremely rare; in the end, the background of the big scene of the manga, especially the double page, is drawn very precisely, which is very time-consuming, and it also proves the seriousness of Uematsuno.

But it is precisely because of this that "The Gate of Eternal Life" has so many readers.

The elevator door opened, and the four followed Gu Qianming out of the elevator.

Seeing both sides of the corridor, Xi Muhan couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise. Shen Xin moved her head and couldn't help but look a few more times.

Some comic magazines are used to posting promotional posters on both sides of the corridor to create a comic atmosphere for the magazine, not "ifuture", even "Nerld" has put up a lot of posters.

"Young Leap" is not a poster, but a B4-sized manuscript. The scales on both sides of the original drawing are clearly visible, and even the pages are drawn on the original paper.

In these manuscripts, Shen Xin not only saw the original paintings of "The Strongest Pitcher" and "The Gate of Eternal Life", but even saw the nae of "Young Exorcist".

The nae of "Youth Exorcist" is not very detailed, compared with the original manuscript, it is a bit worse.

However, Shen Xin can also understand that different cartoonists have different preferences. Take "Job Hunter" as an example. At the end of the comic, there is even a whole page of word descriptions. Readers have to doubt that what they are reading is not comics, but This is still the original manuscript, and the storyboard on that page is probably even more frustrating.

Each page of the manuscript is pressed with a film, and it can be wiped directly with a towel after it gets dirty, so as not to damage the manuscript.

Compared with those promotional posters, these sketches and nae are really generous.

"These are the original sketches?" Shen Xin asked in surprise.

"Some are the first version of the manga artist's manuscript, but they just felt flawed and chose to give up. Some are imitations of the assistant's picture quality. The real original manuscripts are all kept in collections, and it is impossible for us to directly put the original manuscripts here. Shen Teacher, if you read carefully, you will find that these manuscripts are different from the original manuscripts." Gu Qianming pointed at the manuscripts.

Shen Xin observed a few of them carefully, and it was indeed the case. Some of the drawings had traces of changes, and some of the drawings did not have any paper attached, but most of the drawings were complete and of good quality, and even some of the drawings were not at all compared to the original. Not inferior.

Although none of these sketches were published and printed, posting them here is enough to show the intentions of "Young Leap".
