Is this cartoonist mentally ill?.

Chapter 363 The Influence of Movies

Chapter 363 The Influence of Movies
Yang Shuzhun has been enjoying great popularity during this period. After the series "Tide of the Black Moon" was completed in "God Clan", most of the comic fans felt sad for Eri.

At the same time, it also made the popularity and reputation of "Protoss" reach the top.

Even the time when "Purple Air Coming from the East" was nearing completion could not completely suppress the popularity of "The Gods".

It is conceivable how powerful "Protoss" is and how popular it is.

Because of this, Yang Shuzhun's popularity and reputation exploded. In a large comics forum, there was a vote for a new generation of popular cartoonists, and his number of votes was almost the same as Lin Qingshan's, or even more than ten votes more than Lin Qingshan.

This proves that in the eyes of today's comic fans, Yang Shuzhun can be completely compared with Lin Qingshan based on the comic "Protoss", and some even think he is even stronger than Lin Qingshan.

After all, comics still have to speak with strength, popularity and sales are the most important, and word of mouth can only serve as a secondary reference standard.

Otherwise, among Lin Qingshan’s three major food animations in his previous life, "Parasyte" should be ranked first.

In fact, the movie "Attack on Titan", which has a reputation not as good as "Parasyte", would be ranked first.

Sometimes, "Ghoul" can even be ranked ahead of "Parasyte".

"The Protoss" has already become a phenomenal work based on its current popularity and sales, so Lin Qingshan can't compare with it.

In particular, the comic currently serialized by Lin Qingshan is "Parasyte". "Parasyte" currently has a very good reputation, but its sales and popularity are far inferior to "Protoss".

Moreover, the reputation of "Protoss" has not yet collapsed.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why Yang Shuzhun is now superior to Lin Qingshan.

Yang Shuzhun recently took advantage of his last break to attend several autograph sessions, and the enthusiasm of his fans helped him regain his confidence.

Recently, he has been constantly communicating with comic fans on Weibo through blog posts.

"Thank you all for your help. I will start drawing "Protoss" again today. I hope we can work together again and again to defeat future enemies." Yang Shuzhun took a photo of his workbench and posted it on Weibo.

Soon, the fans of "Protoss" who followed Yang Shuzhun's Weibo immediately started commenting and interacting with him.

“Ahhhhhh, the fourth part of ‘Protoss’. I’m almost dying without watching ‘Protoss’ in the past two weeks.”

“I look forward to a better “Protoss” and the next story!”

"Go for it, poor boy! Go for it, Mr. Itchy Mouse!"

"Can you post two chapters a week? Mr. Itchy Mouse! [Expression_Unhappy]"

“‘Protoss’ will continue to soar to the sky!!!”

……

After seeing these comments from fans, Yang Shuzhun was very happy and laughed out loud.

He feels very satisfied every time he sees comments from fans.

It’s really... so happy, these fans are so nice.

Yang Shuzhun was in an extremely happy mood, but he did not start drawing the draft. Instead, he planned to take a look at the previous blog posts and make new comments.

But just then...

The Weibo platform suddenly pushed several new messages to him.

Yang Shuzhun saw it - "The movie "Edgewalker" has been completed! It will be released soon!"

"Nolan, the director of Edgewalker, announced that he plans to bring a group of leading actors including Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Margot Robbie and Dwayne Johnson to promote the film in the Republic."

"The film adaptation of the original comic book "Edgewalker" took four years and cost $1.5 million to complete! It is ready to be released simultaneously in North America and the Republic!"

"Take you to re-read the original comic of "Edgewalker"! Analyze the meaning of the comic plot!"

……

When Yang Shuzhun saw this, a hint of envy suddenly appeared under his glasses.

Lin Qingshan’s comic work...was adapted into a movie?
What about him?
When will his works be noticed by others, put on the big screen and be watched and admired by millions of people?

……

After more than four years, nearly five years, the news that the film version of "EdgeWalker" was completed instantly shocked the entire Republic.

After all, this is... a science fiction film adapted from the original work of Republic Man.

The people of the Republic have always been very united. Once the topic is related to the Republic, they will support it without hesitation.

Some people even go to the extent of blindly supporting it.

As soon as they heard that the original comic was created by a person from the Republic, everyone in the Republic immediately became excited.

Especially since it was adapted into a blockbuster movie by an internationally renowned director, doesn't this further prove that the works of the Republic have been recognized?
Now it is not just as simple as attracting the attention of the two-dimensional crowd who like ACG, animation and comics.

Those who don’t pay attention to anime and comics, and those ordinary passers-by who prefer to chase dramas and celebrities, all came to watch.

"Director No's new movie! A big investment and big production! He will also come to our place to promote it, wow! I'm really looking forward to it!"

"Edgewalker? Wait, isn't this the name of an animation? I think I've seen it."

"Yes, but the original work of Edgewalker is actually a comic... and it is a comic created by the Republic."

"Wait... the original is from the Republic? Aoyama? Is he really from the Republic?"

"Some people don't know Aoyama, I tell you it's true. The movie "EdgeWalker" is adapted from the original comic book of the same name by Aoyama."

"I didn't expect that Edgewalker would be made into a movie, and it's directed by Director No, so I'm really looking forward to it."

"Big production, big investment! Amazing, Qingshan the old thief has really made it big, the comics have been adapted into movies!"

"By the way, what is the original work like? What type of work is it?"

"The original work is a science fiction comic, and the movie should also be a science fiction movie... Well, it is a very healing work."

"Oh, oh, oh, my David! My Lucy! My Rebecca!"

"Yes, it's so healing, I definitely want to go and see it."

“By the way, remember to go to Cyberpunk 2077 to see a doctor after watching it.”

"There are cyber-psychopaths here, right? Why are you still seeing a doctor? I'll just call the Terrorist Squad!"

"As expected, there are cyber-psychopaths and terrorist squads everywhere."

……

Comic fans who have watched "EdgeWalker" immediately started to pull those who have not watched "EdgeWalker" into the fun online, so "EdgeWalker" became a small hit before the movie was released.

Lin Qingshan was looking at the "Edge Walker" series of tasks on the system panel, and the progress bar began to rise rapidly.

"EdgeWalker" was actually completed after so many years, and its popularity has increased a lot through subsequent animations and games.

But of course it was stuck on the task of 100 million people.

Now it is rapidly rushing towards the praise of 100 million people.

This made Lin Qingshan sigh that after all, movies have a greater influence.

This is before the movie is released. If the movie is released, with the global release and subsequent online platform launch...

Maybe he could complete for the first time the ultimate mission that the system had mentioned - the praise of 500 million people!

However... System Master Deng said that in the end he would need nine works and receive 500 million consecutive praises to complete all the tasks.

Lin Qingshan thought about it and still felt that he had a long way to go.

In fact, at this point, it is not important to him whether or not he completes the subsequent system tasks.

Now his abilities are sufficient. Even if he doesn't draw comics anymore, they will be enough for him to live freely in this world.

So...actually, he doesn't need to continue drawing comics. After all, he himself is a person with few desires. He just wants to have good food and good lives, and his relatives and friends around him also live well.

Moreover, the system did not force him to complete the task, otherwise there would be punishment.

but……

Lin Qingshan still planned to proceed towards the ultimate mission as the system said.

Because he felt that if he could complete all of System Boss's tasks, System Boss would be freed.

He didn't know where System Lao Deng came from, but he always felt a little sad for it.

It was bound to him and normally seemed to have no desires, just like him now.

System Lao Deng has helped him so much along the way, as if it has only one goal, which is to let Lin Qingshan complete all the tasks.

In this case... Lin Qingshan felt that no matter what, he must work hard to help System Master fulfill this wish!

Moreover, he himself wants to share with the world those works that he liked in his previous life, not just comics, but also the creator's own thoughts and opinions hidden in the works.

Lin Qingshan likes these works very much, so he also wants to share them with strangers in this world.

And he can also make a lot of money, so drawing comics is not something he dislikes.

……

"Qingshan? Why are you here?"

Gu Qianli looked at Lin Qingshan curiously and asked.

Lin Qingshan has been quite busy during this period of time, as he has several duties. Not only is he drawing the final episode of "Parasyte", but he has also started drawing for his next new work, "Tao Weird Immortal".

In addition, Trigger Animation's two new animes, "Mato Ghoul" and "Akame ga Kill", also require his help.

So it is certain that Lin Qingshan is busy.

Especially in Gu Qianli's eyes, she felt a little sorry for Lin Qingshan.

But in fact, Lin Qingshan is really fine, after all, he has the ability of [Speed Star (Diamond)] which increases the drawing speed.

He also invited external help - the intelligent AI Nuwa.

Even later, because "The Tao of Immortals" was a novel rather than a comic in its previous life, when he was drawing "The Tao of Immortals", he could not directly copy it like he did with the comics before.

Instead, he needs to think on his own, to conceive storyboards, plot scenes, etc. In addition, the style of "Tao Gui Yi Xian" is similar to the traditional Chinese painting style of "Wu Shan Wu Xing", so he still has to spend a lot of time.

So he invited another external aid - Qiansi Fox, who has now become a digital life.

This can also be considered as hiring Qiansi Fox and paying him a considerable amount of compensation.

With the help of two foreign aids, he already had two assistants, Wu Shiqing and Chen Chunqiang.

Wu Shiqing and Chen Chunqiang couldn't help much with the drawing work of "The Taoist Immortals". They were still in the learning stage and probably felt a little embarrassed.

Therefore, I worked harder on Trigger Animation.

Of course he doesn't need to be so busy.

So although Lin Qingshan is busy now, he is not as busy as Gu Qianli imagined.

"Hey, I came here to ask you..."

Lin Qingshan took out a movie ticket from behind and said, "Do you want to go to the movies together?"

"Let's go to the movies together?"

Gu Qianli blinked and said curiously.

Actually… before Station C was founded, she often went to the movies with Lin Qingshan in college.

In the past two years, the two of them have basically not gone to the movies.

After all, everyone is busy...

Gu Qianli remembered the last time he watched a movie, which was half a year ago. A very good movie was released at that time.

Lin Qingshan asked her if she had time to go to the movies together, so she went with Lin Qingshan.

In fact, the most important thing is that Gu Qianli became busy.

Lin Qingshan often goes to the cinema to watch movies. He likes the atmosphere there.

But as I said before, he doesn't like causing trouble to others.

Gu Qianli has been too busy with Station C recently, and he was also very busy with his graduation thesis defense before.

So after a while, Lin Qingshan rarely invited Gu Qianli to watch movies.

The main reason is... I don’t want to embarrass Gu Qianli.

Little did he know that if he invited Gu Qianli, Gu Qianli would agree unless the work was very important.

Because... this is Lin Qingshan’s invitation.

"Yeah, movie tickets for the preview of Edgewalker."

Lin Qingshan chuckled and said, "It's a rare opportunity. I wanted to invite you and everyone else to go and see it together."

Last time, he just tried to ask Ayumi Ito to ask the film producer for three tickets for the preview of "EdgeWalker", but he didn't expect the other party to give him six tickets at once.

This made him sigh, how generous...

But he is the original author after all, so the film producers will definitely not be stingy.

But he himself didn't think of this.

In addition to giving the movie tickets to Ito Ayumi and Gu Qianli, Lin Qingshan also gave one ticket each to his three assistants, Wu Shiqing, Chen Chunqiang and Akutami Yuta.

All given by hand.

So, Lin Qingshan came to Gu Qianli in person just for this matter.

"With everyone?"

Gu Qianli suddenly felt a little disappointed, but she quickly smiled and said, "Okay, when will the preview be held?"

She actually thought she was going to watch it with Lin Qingshan.

only……

"Five days later, we'll go together then!"

Lin Qingshan gave the ticket to Gu Qianli and said with satisfaction.

"Five days later... no problem then."

Gu Qianli took the preview ticket from Lin Qingshan and said with a smile.

"Then it's a deal."

Lin Qingshan gave a thumbs up and said with satisfaction.
