105 The Legend of the Red Scarf
After turning on the new profession, Qin Han turned off the system and took out his mobile phone to log in to Twitter.
It's November now, and it's getting closer to the Winter CM Fan Show. It's time to increase efforts to promote the works that you will sell at the Fan Show.
As soon as he appeared on Twitter, he found countless news reminders.
As a fan of millions of internet celebrities, this is just a daily routine when I watch pushes every day. Qin Han glanced at it, but unexpectedly found that most of the tweets of @him are related to the keyword "eat the keyboard".
After Qin Han learned a little about it, he realized that there was an author of a comic intelligence media who wrote an article to predict the sales war between "young_animal" and "weekly morning". Because the content was controversial, it attracted a lot of opposition. Later, he had an argument with netizens and established a flag that "weekly morning loses and eats the keyboard."
Now, the result has come out, and "young_animal" has won a great victory, so a beneficiary went to the author named "Bifengtaro" to Twitter, and left messages to the screen, asking the other party to fulfill the bet.
When Qin and Han were curious, they also went to read the analysis article called "Furious Fight! The Battle of Sekihara in the Golden Autumn Comics World!!".
He knew at a glance that this media was likely to have collected money from Kotanshe.
It is so common for magazine media to use money to do business and whisper B under the orders. Qin Han sympathized with the author who was slapped in the face, was besieged and bombarded, and was bloody.
After thinking about it, Qin and Han thought about evil things.
He searched online and found a shop that could freely customize various cakes. Of course, the other party could also use chocolate to make keyboard-shaped cakes.
Qin Han came to Bifeng Taro's Twitter, left a store link, and said, "No need to thank me, my name is Red Scarf."
Soon, some netizens discovered Qin Han’s message.
"Oh? Isn't this Teacher Qin Han?"
"Really, and it's real, not fake."
"What did Teacher Qin Han say? Did you also ask Taro Bifeng to fulfill his promise and go eat the keyboard?"
"Haha, Bifeng Taro received the money from Kotanshe, wrote a random article, and devalued "young_animal" without any basis. Now it is really retribution!"
Netizens came to watch. After reading the tweets, they found that Qin Han’s messages were not as they imagined.
"What does red scarf mean?"
"I don't understand very much."
"Teacher Qin Han is a Chinese. Is the Red Scarf the name of a certain Chinese celebrity?"
A netizen who had a good thing clicked on the link and found that it was a cake shop. After checking it carefully, he realized the intention of Qin Han.
"It is indeed a good idea to use chocolate to make a keyboard. It's worthy of being Teacher Qin Han!"
"Teacher Qin Han is so gentle that he is willing to help Bifeng Taro, a bastard."
"The red scarf is such a wonderful word."
"If I have a child, I must make him a red scarf."
Qin Han did not expect that his joking joke made the word "Red Scarf" gradually become popular on the Japanese Internet, and its meaning became "a gentle person with an open mind."
Five days later, Bifeng Taro posted a video.
In the video, he really ordered a keyboard-like chocolate cake from the cake shop recommended by Qin Han, and then ate it in public.
After eating, Bifeng Taro bowed deeply to the camera: "Thank you for your help from Teacher Qin Han, I really saved my life. Because eating plastic will really kill people."
Later, Taro Bifeng resigned from the media magazine where he worked and became a freelance writer, commenting and analyzing the animation industry. It is said that because of his unique and sharp views, neutral and objective stance, he is very popular.
Of course, Qin and Han didn't know what happened later.
After entering late November, his work became busier and busier, and he didn't have much time to spend time online.
The special issue of "World Libo Show" by the Winter CM Fan Show has been completed. The second volume of the comic version of "FATE/stay-night" has also come to an end.
The development of the independent game "The Story of the Oriental Fantasy Country" is still in progress in an orderly manner. Qin and Han dynasties have already contacted friends from previous Dongda University to find two translation teams. When the game is on steam, there will be three languages: Japanese, Chinese and English. As for other small languages, it will be discussed depending on the game sales.
What really increased the workload of Qin and Han dynasties was "Dragon Cherry".
"young_animal" was serialized in two months and four issues, plus a supplementary issue "young_animal Lan", "Long Ying" has been serialized for a total of 280 pages. This amount is more than enough to publish a single-line version.
Readers pursue timeliness when reading comic magazines and want to see the latest comic content, so they don’t care so much about reading experience.
Therefore, Japanese comics and magazines generally have the characteristics of poor paper and rough printing.
But there is nothing we can do about it.
Take "Weekly Jump" as an example. The price is only 250 yen, but it is the size of A4 paper and an astonishing 500 pages. It is thick like a brick in your hand.
There are scenes in many anime where jumps are used to smash people or tables, which is not exaggerated.
Because the rich capacity of comics and magazines leads to high costs, even if you try to save money on paper and printing, you can't make money by selling magazines and even lose money.
The real profit of the publisher is still in the comic book.
Because those who can buy single books are generally fans, the key is whether the reading experience is comfortable, whether the books are exquisite, and have collection value.
When publishing a single book, the publisher will not only pay more attention to printing and paper, but also spend some time on design. In terms of content, although it is a plot that has been serialized in magazines, the publisher generally requires cartoonists to re-correct the original manuscript.
In the past, places that were shoddy to catch up on the progress of the serialization should be re-drawn. If there are line errors or bugs, try to correct them.
This is like an animation played on TV. When the disc is released, the drawing errors will be corrected or some excessively collapsed pictures will be completely reset. Some meat-selling welfare fans will also correct the Holy Light, which is the same principle.
Therefore, Qin and Han not only had to continue to catch up with the magazine serialization progress, but also had to revise 200 pages of original manuscripts.
Fortunately, his paintings are exquisite and fast, and there was no shoddy work before. There were very few places to modify the original manuscript, so the workload increased a lot.
If you change to a rich traitor who just handed over the draft, you will be tired at this time.
Baiquanshe also attaches great importance to the first single-line version of "Dragon Sakura".
After careful investigation, the marketing department decided to print the first 500,000 copies.
The hottest comic in Japan, "Dragon Ball", has the first one-line version printed around two million copies. With this comparison, you can roughly know the popularity of "Dragon Sakura".
