Big Manga

After Zhongxia Company's press conference, Meng Huo immediately found the novel "Fire Boy" to read. . .

As the saying goes, if you know your enemy and know yourself, you will never end in a hundred battles. Now that Jiang Tianshi and the Zhongxia Company have united, he must read this novel carefully.

The novel is unexpectedly good-looking, and the content is very domineering - the so-called domineering here refers to the works with the highest audience and the most suitable subject matter for promotion. "Flame Boy" is a hot-blooded novel, the background is set in the fictional ancient China, but the content is different from the title of the book. The story is not about a boy who uses flames, but a boy full of fighting spirit like a flame.

This is a novel about martial arts, with a touch of fantasy, a bit like the fairy tale novels from the previous life... Meng Huo doesn't know how to describe it better, but the novel is very good, and his blood boils when he reads it. "The Flame Boy" is very successful in shaping the characters, which is especially admirable to Meng Huo. He read online novels in his previous life, and the character creation was very average. Although there are many passionate novels, it is easy to forget the characters after reading them.

But "Fire Boy" has no such limitations. Its enthusiasm is not much different from that of online novels. What is even more surprising is that the characters in it are lifelike, and the author's writing skills are also very good.

Meng Huo was sincerely thankful that he did not choose to make his debut in novels back then, and his prosperity had exceeded his expectations. If he copied those online novels from his previous life, he might not have achieved the success he is today.

"Natural good material."

I have to say that Meng Huo thinks "Boy Flame" is very suitable for adapting comics. Comics should pay great attention to character creation, and "Boy Flame" has vivid characters and interesting stories. The subject matter also fits the background of this world. It is a type of martial arts acceptable to the Chinese public - it will definitely be popular!

Meng Huo felt the pressure. Although "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" is powerful, strictly speaking, it is still classified as a niche category, and its adaptation to the crowd is incomparable with "Fire Boys". If he could know in advance that Jiang Tianshi chose this type of animation, Meng Huo would definitely fight with battle animations like "One Piece" and "Dragon Ball".

But now I can't change my mind.

Zhongxia Company will release the trailer and other information of "Fire Boy" on August 20th, and Meng Huo has guests to meet on the 20th. However, he still sent Ye Xiong to Ninghai to participate in the preview screening.

Ye Xiong returned to Ninghai, but before the screening, he met a friend.

"Wang Lei, are you coming to the screening too?"

He greeted Wang Lei, who was in high spirits. The editor-in-chief of the newspaper had a reporter with him, and they came to interview on the spot.

"Yeah, I didn't expect you to be here."

Wang Lei was surprised to see Ye Xiong, and then his eyes lit up: "Mr. He Xi cares about "Fire Boy"?"

He guessed that Ye Xiong's presence here was instructed by Meng Huo, and Ye Xiong smiled wryly, but Wang Lei had a good relationship with Phoenix Company. Especially after the "Detective Conan" incident last time, Meng Huo also looked at this newspaper with admiration. So Ye Xiong didn't want to hide anything, so he answered honestly.

"It is indeed Teacher He Xi who sent me here. This time, "Flame Boy" may be our company's enemy..." Ye Xiong complained slightly: "Zhongxia Company's move is powerful, but animation with such a large cost is really not afraid. It's not beneficial?"

Wang Lei laughed loudly: "Come on... how can they consider the benefits now, curbing the momentum of your company is much more important than benefits!"

Since entering 2017, Phoenix has been making frequent moves, occupying people's attention again and again. The first two times were fine, but after half a year, everyone's attention was occupied by Phoenix Company, and Zhongxia Company was completely forgotten by people. How could they continue to endure it!

Influence is like a snowball that will get bigger and bigger. Whether it is a star, an idol, a cartoonist or a comic company, if it cannot show its presence in front of the world for a long time, its influence will decrease. On the contrary, a company like Phoenix, which has demonstrated its capabilities for a long time, will have higher and higher influence.

If the momentum of the Phoenix Company cannot be curbed, the Zhongxia Company will lose without a fight sooner or later. Even if their market value exceeds Phoenix Company, what if the first thing people think of when talking about comics is Phoenix Company? ——This is the most worrying issue of Zhongxia Company in the future.

They are now launching "Fire Boy" to curb the momentum of the Phoenix Company, and at the same time turn the media's attention to themselves. So far, Phoenix's preliminary work has been quite successful.

Ye Xiong and Wang Lei walked into the preview screening venue. There were many people who participated in the preview screening. Reporters and cameras filled the venue, and the crowd was extremely noisy. But when the preview screening started, the venue quickly became quiet.

The trailer of "Blame Boy" is a one-minute short story, which simply tells the story, characters and environment. There is nothing surprising about the content of the trailer, but everyone watched it with wide eyes, and after watching the trailer, they were still shocked endlessly.

"Is this animation? The picture is so good, why do I feel like a fantasy movie?"

"Fuck, this picture is so exquisite and ruthless! I even saw the trembling of the leaves falling on the dew just now, and the music and dubbing are also very good. The production cost of 3 million? They are cheating ghosts, I think 5 million Not enough!"

Ye Xiong couldn't calm down either. The luxury of the trailer is no different from the current big-budget movies. The pictures are exquisite beyond imagination. Just one minute is like a collection of "selling pictures", "selling music", and "selling voice actors". body. The trailer shows an exquisite and magnificent fantasy world, allowing people on the scene to enjoy the double shock of vision and hearing.

three million? Even the reporter can see that something is wrong, and of course Ye Xiong can also see it... The unit price of each episode of this animation is definitely more than three million. "Flame Boy" is the most exquisite and luxurious animation work ever!

"How could "Magic Girl Madoka" surpass "Fire Boy"!"

Ye Xiong flashed this idea, even though he has always been full of confidence in He Xi, "Fire Boy" is really too luxurious, so luxurious that it exceeds Ye Xiong's highest expectations for animation. Moreover, it is absolutely impossible for Jiang Tianshi to make such an exquisite picture by himself. He may be the main painter, but there are other people who are beyond the level of ordinary painters to help him!

Ye Xiong guessed right, in the subsequent speaking session, Zhongxia Company named a group. The core group of illustrators of "Flame Boys" is called 'Angels', consisting of ten young people, including Li Xin and Jiang Tianshi, who were the top seven of Yenching University's first manga graduates, and three others Mystic painter.

"Angel—it is the top comic group launched by our company. It will replace He Xi and become the new leader in the Chinese comic industry!" (To be continued...)
