Entertainment: My band is all lead singer

"Sit down, you're welcome."

In the office building of Dimension Comics Club in Shangdu, Qinian, Fengyu, and Zhao Jiming were sitting together, looking at Jiang Yuebai across from them.

Originally, Jiang Yuebai's publishing of novels did not require the participation of senior executives like Qinian, but today he happened to be free, so he stayed to chat.

"Mr. Qi, what's wrong with you? Didn't you sleep well last night?" Jiang Yuebai looked at Qinian with two dark circles under his eyes early in the morning.

Although he looked very energetic, he could still see that he was a little bit deliberate.

Qinian's mouth corners slightly raised, raised his hand and gently rubbed his sore temples, while skillfully picking up the teapot on the table and pouring a cup of tea for Jiang Yuebai, he responded: "I read your "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" last night, it was very exciting, and I didn't pay attention until after two in the middle of the night."

Fengyu and Zhao Jiming next to him also nodded frequently, and they were in the same situation yesterday.

Feng Yu is Zhao Jiming's superior. After the closing ceremony yesterday, Jiang Yuebai approached Zhao Jiming to talk about the new book release.

Feng Yu and Qinian were nearby at the time, and the three of them were also shocked after hearing this.

I thought Jiang Yuebai could only draw comics, but I didn't expect that he could also write novels.

But on second thought, he had provided animation scripts to Xingchen Magic Cube before, so writing a novel would not be a problem.

In their opinion, it is a great challenge for a cartoonist to write a novel.

The advantage of cartoonists lies in painting, not in words.

Painting skills are the best way to reflect themselves.

The most important task of cartoonists is to draw beautifully. If the painting is not beautiful, no users will buy it.

But novels are different. Novels have no illustrations, no pictures, and everything needs to be expressed in words.

Many things that can be expressed in a painting require a long paragraph of text to express. Some people with poor writing skills find it difficult to depict the pictures they want to express.

In this regard, comics have advantages, and only one painting is needed to express them.

Therefore, it is definitely difficult for a comic book artist to write a novel, even if he is Jiang Yuebai.

So the three of them did not agree with Jiang Yuebai writing novels at first, and drawing comics was enough.

It would be better if the story of Sherlock Holmes could be presented in comics.

They did not say it explicitly, but just persuaded, and then asked Jiang Yuebai how the novel was written, and he could send it to them to read in the evening.

Last night, after the three of them read the book "The Detective Collection of Sherlock Holmes" with a questioning attitude, their attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.

They could not stop at all.

One chapter after another, it was so good that people could not sleep.

Even Qi Nian's wife was curious when she saw him staying up so late.

Qi Nian then sent the novel that Jiang Yuebai gave him to his wife, and then he couldn't stop.

If the two of them had not been busy with work the next day, they would probably have stayed up all night.

Not only is the story content of the novel exciting, but the narrative angle is also very novel.

Generally, novels are written in the third person, that is, the perspective of God.

Occasionally, some people will use the first person, that is, "I". The advantage of this is that it has a strong sense of substitution, but it is only suitable for novels of certain themes, such as supernatural.

More than 90% of novels choose the third person, but Jiang Yuebai's novel is different.

Although it is also the first person, it tells the story of others in the first person.

The story describes Holmes from Watson's perspective.

The subtlety of this narrative technique is that it allows readers to observe Holmes' every move closely like Watson.

Readers are no longer bystanders who are outside the matter, but become his closest partners to solve the mystery together.

Holmes in the story is well-shaped, which makes people feel very admired.

"Then you look at the publishing matter..."

"Don't worry, leave it to us." Qi Nian waved his hand.

He is very confident in Jiang Yuebai's novel. In his opinion, it would be a shame if this book does not become popular.

In addition, with the popularity of "Detective Conan", it will surely seize the market quickly.

"What about the foreign countries?"

"That's easy. Novels are also part of our company." Qi Nian knew what Jiang Yuebai wanted to say.

Jiang Yuebai nodded. With Qi Nian's words, he felt relieved.

The next time, the four of them discussed the details of how to make this novel sell better.

First of all, the comic "Detective Conan" has many fans, which must be used.

It would be best if Jiang Yuebai could open a separate chapter in the comic to explain this matter, so that everyone knows that there is such a book.

In fact, the names of Kongbai and Yuebai should also be used.

Kongbai, the first novel of Jiang Yuebai, the internationally renowned singer,I believe that many people will be curious and click on it.

The rest will be left to Dimension Manga Club. The early publicity will be done, and then some cartoonists who specialize in drawing mystery comics will be found to promote it.

In short, they will do anything that can increase exposure.

The four of them had a meal together, and Zhao Jiming was particularly excited about it.

Before meeting Jiang Yuebai, he was just a small editor, a very inconspicuous editor in Dimension Manga Club.

An international website like Dimension Manga Club has a huge number of users, and editors are naturally indispensable.

Huaxia Comics is edited by Huaxia, and Dongying Comics is edited by Dongying. The total number of editors in the entire internal organization is at least several hundred.

Under normal circumstances, they would not have contact with senior leaders like Qi Nian, and they would not even meet in person.

But because of Jiang Yuebai, he quickly became a celebrity in the internal organization, and he also met the company's senior management, and they were able to have lunch together today.

"Mr. Qi, this may just be a whim of mine. I may not write novels in the future." Jiang Yuebai decided to make it clear in advance just in case.

Originally, this novel was going to be published under Mo Bai's name, but for various reasons he chose Ciyuan Manga Club.

But in this way, Mo Bai still has no new books to publish, and the subsequent books he writes must also be under Mo Bai's name.

"I understand." Qi Nian was not unhappy at all, but smiled.

In his opinion, this is the best situation. It is enough to write a book occasionally. He is also afraid that Jiang Yuebai will write too much and will not have time to draw comics.

After all, comics are their main business, and they just need to make comics.

Although Jiang Yuebai wrote this novel very well, it is hard to guarantee that his next one will be at the same level.

But comics are different. So far, all the comics drawn by Jiang Yuebai have been very popular.

As long as they are published, they can attract a lot of attention.

Thinking of this, Qi Nian remembered that he had just sent "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" to several other senior leaders today, and he believed that they were now unable to stop reading it.
