"Given your current position in cuttlefish, such a request shouldn't be a big problem, but it's just a matter of serializing more than three weeks later, is that all right?"
"I don't think that just the extra serialization will improve the performance of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance..." Su Lu said.
To be honest, although Chu Yu has been talking about fighting for first place, Su Lu has never said anything against Chu Yu, but it is true...
Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance This work really wants to win the Dragon Star Award. Obviously, it is the most likely to be selected in the top ten in the first round and then fight for the opportunity in the second round. Method.
Although Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance is temporarily ranked tenth and has more than 170,000 fans, it is based on the experience of the first round of the Dragon Star Award in previous years.
Often the final result of a work can be seen in the first week.
According to experience, the final value of the fan value of the Dragon Star Awards can be estimated by only looking at the data at the end of the first week.
is generally two to three times the end of the first week.
Because of the first week of the Dragon Star Award selection, everyone is curious, and the comic fans are also very active, so these works tend to grow rapidly when they are facing the national comic fans.
But after the first week is over, basically the increase in fan value will slow down.
Of course, the specific final fan value can reach several times the data in the first week, it all depends on the quality of the work.
It's like the Fiery Feather who is currently the number one in the Dragon Star Award. On the fifth day of the Dragon Star Award, the fan value exceeded 400,000. Although its comic score is almost a full point lower than the Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance. However, with a score of 8.8 points, it is almost certain that when the Dragon Star Award selection ends three weeks later, its fan value will reach about three times the current value is no problem.
But the fan value of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance at this time is only over 170,000. If Chu Yu wants to surpass Blazing Feather at the end of the first round of selection.
In the next three weeks, the fan value of this work must rise at least one million to have the chance to compete with Blazing Feather for the first place.
In Su Lu's eyes, this is almost impossible.
She optimistically estimates that Rurouni Kenshin's 9.8 score plus, coupled with the spontaneous involvement of fans of this work in the past few days, has increased the popularity of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance.
The final fan value can reach four to five times what it is today, that is, between seventy and nine hundred thousand is considered an ideal development plot.
With such results, it shouldn't be a problem to squeeze into the top five in the first round.
But if you go up, there is really no way.
"Sister Su, you are wrong. It's just that the fourteenth episode and the fourteenth and fifteenth episodes are serialized together. In my opinion, there is a big gap...
The fourteenth chapter only tells the death of Xuedaiba, but the ending of the fifteenth chapter is to let people who watched here understand through a screen what her death means to Jianxin.
Although Xuedaiba left Jianxin, she left Jianxin with spiritual support and hope.
and...
Although these two episodes have not been drawn yet, Chu Yu also understands in her heart that if you don’t serialize the fourteen and fifteen liang episodes together, but only serialize the fourteenth episode three weeks later, let alone the climax of the plot. Increased popularity.
He is afraid that he will be sprayed with blood by the hundreds of thousands of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance fans in the whole Dragon Kingdom.
A female protagonist who has been portrayed so well in the early stage, why does your author insist on painting her to death?
I am afraid that a group of people will immediately turn black...
Although there will be more serializations, Chu Yu also estimates that there will be many fans who spray her by the time, but fortunately, the final scene of Chapter 15 has sublimated Xuedaiba's sacrifice and has more meaning.
It is not that the author tragedy for the sake of tragedy, deliberately wins tears.
"Anyway, you should work hard anyway!" Chu Yu said solemnly.
This is already the case, and Chu Yu also knows that there is not much he can do.
Although I really want to advance to the first place in the first round of selection, if he can do everything he can, and still can't beat the opponent, then Chu Yu can calmly accept the result.
"That's OK." Su Lu was no longer wordy.
"When I submit the manuscript of Chapter 13 on Monday, I will forward your request to the editor-in-chief. There is a high probability that your request will be approved."
"So, if you really want to do this..." Su Lu stared at both Chu Yu and Zhao Qinyin.
"In order to catch up with the typesetting and printing, you two must draw the manuscripts of the next fourteen and fifteenth chapters before next Sunday. Also, although the length of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance is not long, anyway, now Today's Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance is the Taizhu comics of our comics club. If it is over, it should not be too sloppy..."
"In the next two weeks, the comic society will release the news of the end of this work. Maybe you two need to draw some color pages for publicity."
"understood."
Chuyu and Zhao Qinyin nodded.
The two of them are now very close to each other.
In good condition, two people can finish drawing a manga in three days, not to mention there are nine days from now to next Sunday.
"Finally, it's over..." Su Lu saw this, his face also showed a little sentimental.
"Think about it carefully, from the first time you submitted a manuscript to me, Chuyu, to the top of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance, and even the chance to break through the first round of the Dragon Star Award and complete the Los Angeles comics. A feat that the world has never had in so many years, it hasn't even arrived for half a year!"
"In half a year, you have grown from a newcomer to the current king of the comic book industry in Los Angeles, and even this week, you have become famous in the entire Dragon Kingdom comics circle..."
Su Lu looked at Zhao Qinyin and then at Chu Yu.
"I used to dismiss this statement, but now I really feel it, what a real genius cartoonist is."
"Although I haven't even talked about love, I can draw the touching love between Kenshin and Xuedaiba. I can't speak a word in Japanese, but I can combine the history of RB more than 100 years ago to come up with such a movie. works."
"..." Chu Yu.
What can Chuyu do?
He can't tell Su Lu, in fact, I am a manga porter from another dimension.
Therefore, he can only accept Su Lu's compliment blankly, and respond with a few words by the way.
"Ok......"
"Ok......"
"exactly."
Originally, Su Lu was still a bit sad that the Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance chapter was about to end, so he couldn't hold back the thoughts in his heart and said two words of praise to Chu Yu.
I didn't expect this kid to have such a thick face.
Not everyone is praised by others for your talents, and if you say you are a genius, they will be humble.
Why did he play cards so unreasonably, he climbed up the pole and just recognized it.
So Su Lu couldn't speak any more.
"Puff!" Zhao Qinyin on the side couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense, let's stop here today, I'm too in a bad spirit, I'll go back to sleep first." Su Lu originally had something to say, but she still resisted it.
For example... after the end of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance Does Chu Yu have any new ideas?
Even, based on Chu Yu's current work results, basically it shouldn't be a big problem to break through the first round of the Dragon Star Award. After this matter is over, will Chu Yu continue to stay in Cuttlefish?
In September last year, the contract signed by Chu Yu and Cuttlefish was only a one-year contract.
Now, in less than half a year, Chu Yu has achieved such an achievement...
Where will he go next?
Su Lu did not dare to think about it.
As a manga editor, how many manga artists like Chu Yu can you meet in your life?
From an editor's perspective, Su Lu hopes that he can always act as Chu Yu's manga editor in the future, and can work with Chu Yu to complete more works like Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance.
But from a friend's point of view, she really hopes that Chu Yu will not renew her contract with Cuttlefish after the contract expires.
Even if there is a new work with a quality comparable to Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance, don’t publish it on Cuttlefish during the next six months of the contract.
Before the Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance chapter was registered on the official website of the Dragon Star Award contest, there was such a voice in the Los Angeles comics industry.
The cuttlefish platform is too small, and the serialization of Rurouni Kenshin Remembrance on it is too wasteful...
After the results of the Dragon Star Awards came out this week, everyone basically recognized this statement in their hearts.
So today's Su Lu is very entangled in her heart. In her opinion, with Chu Yu's strength, Go to the magic capital, and even RB Island, there is a platform for Chu Yu to play his fist.
But she, who is also a cuttlefish employee, can’t say anything like this.
So, she didn't say some words, and even Su Lu could see that Zhao Qinyin also held these words in her heart.
