My Cartoonist Guide

At the annual meeting, in addition to the performance announced by the organizer, there is also the exchange between authors.

Shen Xin didn't participate in similar activities on many occasions. After meeting with other authors, he inevitably exchanged greetings.

Because the copyright of "DN" is sold for seven or eighty-eight, there is only one game copyright left. As for changing "DN" into a game...Shen Xin didn't think much about it.

There were also companies that wanted to contact Shen Xin, and Shen Xin tweeted them to Wang Wenhong.

Xi Muhan was also the focus of the annual meeting.

Although it is not the first time she participated in the annual meeting, she was still a newcomer in the comics circle last time. This time is different. "Ding Shi" has already become famous in the comics industry, and Xi Muhan is also known by more people. His appearance was pure and lovely, which attracted the favor of many companies, but he was also stopped one by one by Wang Wenhong.

Seeing Xi Muhan holding Shen Xin's hand at all times, the person in charge of the company could only laugh and move his eyes to Wang Wenhong.

With the passage of time, the author gradually left. Shen Xin also greeted Bao Jiyi, Shang Haozhi, and Yu Chen, and left with Xi Muhan and Lu Ning. Wang Wenhong did not drink because he had to drive, but Yan Fei drank a little. A little bit, his expression is a bit blurred.

When a group of people left the manor, a cold wind blew, and snowflakes fluttered in the sky.

Wang Wenhong drove to the parking lot, while Shen Xin and others stood by the side of the road and waited.

Xi Muhan tightened his clothes, holding Shen Xin with a small hand.

Shen Xin felt that Xi Muhan's hands were a little cold, and turned around and asked, "Is it cold?"

Xi Muhan shook his head, "It's not cold. I met a lot of cartoonists today, which gave me a feeling that I am also a person in this circle."

"What's good in the comic circle?" Shen Xin said helplessly, "Every circle is similar."

Every circle has a dark side, not only in comic circles, but also in the previous online circles.

Author and author, author and reader, author and editor, author and contract...

The complexity of various relationships is hard to imagine.

Small circles, ghostwriters, swiping tickets, getting swiped... all these things also exist.

Ordinary authors just want to create works, but "Lin wants to be quiet but the wind keeps on", and often the situation is out of control.

Facing Xi Muhan, Shen Xin didn't want to be so realistic. Moreover, hard work and dreams are still very useful in most cases.

Lu Ning glanced at Shen Xin and Xi Muhan, and said with a wry smile: "You two are comfortable, but I and Sister Yan are suffering..."

Shen Xin glanced at Lu Ning, and saw that she was covering her ears with her hands and stomping her feet, her clothes were covered with snowflakes.

"What are you suffering for?" Shen Xin turned his head, "You can also hold Sister Yan."

"Yes, you can hold Sister Yan."

Xi Muhan winked at Lu Ning, who almost scratched her angrily.

Yan Fei was a little sleepy and didn't say a word.

At this moment, the car lights flashed, Wang Wenhong drove a black mpv, slowly parked in front of the crowd, waited for everyone to get on the car, handed a can of sobering drink to Yan Fei, and then the car slowly started. .

"By the way, isn't the animation of "Ding Shi" released? How about the sales of the single book?" Shen Xin glanced at Xi Muhan behind him through the rearview mirror, and curiously asked when she saw she was looking out the window.

"I don't know, I shouldn't come out so soon, right?" Xi Muhan shook his head.

The sales volume of single-line books is calculated on a weekly basis, and it will be two days later until the editor gives feedback to the author.

"I looked at a little data and it was not bad. I sold more than 100,000 copies this week." Yan Fei rubbed her face, and the whole talent had a little energy.

"Hundreds of thousands? Xin Ge's new book has broken one million." Xi Muhan felt that there were a few.

"Xiaohan, "Ding Shi" hasn't released a new book yet. It's a good result to have this result. It's really—" Yan Fei explained quickly, and at the same time, there was a hint of happiness in her heart. "There is really no comic book in China that can compare to "DN". , I thought that the sales volume of the single book would be affected by the previous performance fluctuation, but unexpectedly, the sales volume was the largest of the three."

"The readers of pamphlets and magazines do not completely overlap." Shen Xin laughed. "Many of the readers who buy pamphlets have participated in the work. They usually don’t have time to read the magazines, so they buy pamphlets during the holidays. Therefore, even if the public opinion was not correct some time ago. "DN" is not friendly, they will buy it too."

"This is indeed also a reason. When the animation is released, it is estimated that sales will skyrocket. Mr. Shen, do you guess the weekly sales of "DN" will exceed 2 million?" Yan Fei asked.

"No." Wang Wenhong answered.

"I asked Mr. Shen." Yan Fei was a little dissatisfied with Wang Wenhong's interruption.

"I agree with Brother Wang, the weekly sales volume should not reach two million."

"Why? Obviously sales are very good." Xi Muhan puzzled.

"Because..."DN" is an evil comic. The number of readers who like evil comics is not as large as that of Wangdao comics." Shen Xin explained, "The average sales volume of "DN" may reach 2 million copies, but it exceeds 2 million in a single week. ,Not too possible."

This is like a fantasy novel. The reader base is very large. Even if there are no diehard fans, the profit that the novel brings to the author is more likely than that of the novel with niche subjects.

This has nothing to do with the quality of the work, but with the base of readers.

Thinking of online novels, Shen Xin remembered what Bao Jiyi said at the annual meeting.

"By the way, Yan Fei, what does Mr. Bao mean by network light novels?" Shen Xin was also a network author before crossing, so he was more concerned about network literature.

"Oh, you said that... You also know that although novels are not as intuitive as comics, the update cycle of novels is short, only one person can create novels, and the cycle of verifying whether a work can be accepted by readers is also short. If there are really good light novels, the magazine can find cartoonists for light novels and serialize them on the app."

"Want to make "ComicFuture" different from the app?" When Wang Wenhong heard this, he immediately understood.

"clever."

"How can the writer of the novel make a profit?"

This is what Shen Xin cares about most~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Any industry that wants to grow must be profitable. Before online novels charge fees, authors are also updated in Buddhism, because online authors must survive. When online novels cannot bring them benefits, they must find another way to live.

Serialization of light novels on the Internet is very similar to online novels, and I don’t know how to charge.

"No, only some coupons for reading comics."

Point...point coupon...

Shen Xin's black line is indeed the original model of online literature.

In the beginning, many people also started serializing online for literary dreams.

It is no exaggeration to say that at the time, many authors were worried about their livelihoods, but they uploaded their written articles to the Internet because of their love of literature-although many of them have been finished by TJ.

But this is also impossible. Before the livelihood is settled, the creator can't calm down and create.
