my animation era

Chapter 130 (Subscription)

On Children's Day, Wanbao officially launched a solicitation activity for outstanding second-generation fan works of "Dragon Fighter".

Promote the "ten million" award to the outside world!
Well, in fact, the bonus is really not as much as 1000 million, and it only looks like 700 million to 800 million if you play it all.It's just that Gu Miao is used to rounding up, so she simply advertised 1000 million.

Seventy-eight million is not too little.

Taking excellent fan fiction as an example, winning the first prize can not only get a bonus of 100 million, but also have the opportunity to get an "animation/manga" adaptation.

For many fan authors, this is very tempting.Anyway, writing fanfic is not writing, why not write "Dragon Fighter" fanfic?
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under the reward!

With the huge reward offered by Wanbao official, in this summer, along with the hit of the animation "Dragon Fighter", all kinds of fanfic creations emerge in an endless stream on the Internet.

There are many masterpieces among them!

Taking novels as an example, Gu Miao herself is chasing and updating a fan novel called "I am Master Shibalagu".

This novel is very interesting.

Although the background and world view of the comic "Dragon Fighter" are borrowed, the protagonist also wears the skin of Master Shibala.But the story told in this novel is actually an original plot similar to the "prequel".

The novel tells the story of how Master Shibalagu practiced swordsmanship when he was young, traveled all over the Chuangjie Mountain to challenge all kinds of powerful enemies, and finally became a generation of swordsmanship masters, and was recognized by the "Zhanshen"...

It's a cool text, but it's not exactly cool.

The author's writing style is very good, and it can be seen that the basic skills are very solid. The characters in the pen are all flesh and blood, vivid and vivid, which makes people want to stop watching.

Gu Miao liked this fan fiction very much.

If nothing else, the first prize should be his.Unless there is another higher-quality and more interesting novel before the solicitation ends, but Gu Miao thinks this is unlikely.

Except for novels.

In the field of video, there are also many excellent second-generation edited videos emerging.Among them, the most played video and the most popular video is a "ghost animal" video in which Xiaomei and Xiaodu sing love songs duet.

Gu Miao had also watched that ghost video.

To be honest, the video has gone way too far.Originally, the lyrics and tuning sessions were very good, and anyone who came would have to say "peerless life".

But the author of this video is really too abstract!Xiaodu and Xiaomei sang love songs duet, what do you mean by letting Tiger King accompany you?
Husband is currently guilty, right?

excuse me!Gu Miao, as the god of pure love, wished to pick up a knife and kill the tauren one by one, so why would she hand-pick him as the first prize winner.

In view of the tens of millions of views and the influence of the video out of the circle, it is enough to give a second prize.

The first prize should be the video of the stage play "First Arrival at Chuangjie Mountain" that is not played much, but is really hardworking and more meaningful.

The arrangement is really good!

With the help of teachers and parents, a group of children independently completed a performance of a stage play, and the overall performance was of high quality, why didn't they deserve to win the first prize?
Compared with the endless stream of videos, novels, including fan works of stage plays, the number of submissions in the category of "comics" received in this solicitation is relatively small.

no way!
The domestic comics industry is half-dead, and most practitioners have switched to other careers.It's good if someone contributes, so what qualifications do you have to pick and choose?
In fact...

Not only are there few submissions for this solicitation, but even the "Manga World" magazine, which has just become famous after its publication, has encountered the same problem.

Lack of high-quality manuscripts!
Nantong's reputation in the industry was not very good, and since "Manga World" was launched not long ago, everyone had no confidence, so they were naturally not very motivated to submit articles.

Even though the "Comic World" magazine has raised the manuscript fee standard to the top level in China, the manuscripts received are still pitifully small.

"No way, it's like this..."

Nantong already had the idea of ​​putting it down, and said with a wry smile: "Not only us, but the entire industry is facing the same problem, there are pages but no manuscripts."

What about drawing Nima comics?

Take a look now, how can there be a big shed... Ah no, a cartoonist who is willing to work full-time?Everyone is a part-time amateur painting, either to work in an animation company, or to work in an advertising company...

Anyway, one sentence is:

It is impossible to draw manga full-time, and it is impossible to do it full-time in this life. Only by doing it in my spare time, as a hobby can I maintain my life like this.

The comics industry is in a downturn, and there is no basic guarantee for ensuring income from droughts and floods, so everyone is not very enthusiastic.

Gu Miao also considered this issue.

After some deliberation, he came up with a way, which is to recruit full-time on-duty cartoonists and let them "get paid" to draw cartoons.

Don't you just feel insecure!
So now the company pays you to support you, and you have a guaranteed income every month in drought and flood, and you also have a share of the copyright income of the works produced. Now you are going to the head office?

"What if there are bastards?"

"It's up to you to screen!"

"If you find a bastard, kick it out and find another one." Gu Miao spread her hands and said with a helpless expression, "At present, this is the only way to maintain the weekly publishing demand of "Comic World".

"Okay, that's fine too."

Although Mr. Gu's suggestion is not perfect and easy to be exploited, it can at least solve the problem, and Nan Tong has no objection.

But he still has a problem.

In this "Dragon Fighter" fan solicitation event, the number of submitted comic works is rare, and the quality is generally too poor. How will the first prize be determined?
"Let's leave it alone for a while."

"If there are still no excellent works, then just choose one and post it." Gu Miao shook her head and said.

He didn't expect it either.

Millions of dollars + rewards for animation adaptations, it's really a miscalculation that they can't attract excellent comic authors.

If he had known that everyone was doing so badly, he would have relaxed the threshold for submissions, so that cartoonists from abroad, especially those from Neon, could also participate in the "comics" solicitation.

Fortunately, the manga also pulled the crotch.

Judging from the overall effect, this solicitation of fan works has achieved good results.Gu Miao's several million dollars are worth spending.

Nothing else to say...

At least on the Internet, with fan works that have sprung up one after another, the animation "Dragon Fighter" has gained exposure beyond imagination.

I dare not say that women and children know it, but it should not be a big problem to say that everyone in the Two-dimensional circle knows everyone.

After all, fan works are too popular.

Conventional derivative fans can no longer meet the needs of this group of people.On an indescribably shameful website, there are not only "Dragon Fighter" comic books.

There are actually various "styles"?
To be reasonable, this opened Gu Miao's eyes a bit.He originally thought that everyone liked animated female characters, but he didn't know that the most popular ones were "Birdman Heijian" and "Monkey Brother Huanlongzhai".

It's terrible!
