068 Those who follow me live, those who imitate me die
"Did I misjudge the traffic of comic·sunshine, or underestimate my fame?" Qin Han looked at the long queue in front of his stall, and then looked at his rapidly decreasing fan book inventory. I don't know if I was happy or regretful - if I had known, I would have printed twice as many notebooks.
Just about half an hour ago, the number of customers coming to the stalls increased significantly, and many of them were not the kind of comic fans who usually read fan fiction. Some people also said words such as "paincar, Ferrari, Porsche" in conversation, which made Qin Han confused.
At this time, Wu Lan, who was constantly unpacking the box and carrying the fan book behind Qin Han, said: "Maybe she was attracted by Miss Hashimoto. The Tosaka Rin who cosplayed her is so cute!"
Wu Lan was the assistant who invited Qin Han to help temporarily, and a Chinese student from Musashino University of Fine Arts.
He and his friend Su Yi are both old fans who bought "Daily Safe Milk" at the last cm fan show.
The comic book friends of Qin and Han all had their own jobs, so they didn’t have time to help this time. Qin and Han must have been too busy alone, so they decided to spend 8,000 yen a day and hire two people to help temporarily.
Wu Lan and Su Yi are both international students at Musashino University, fans of themselves, and Chinese, so Qin Han hired two people without saying a word.
Wu Lan is responsible for handling and doing odd jobs, while Su Yi holds up a sign to maintain order in the team.
This time, not only did there be no free helper, but also the invincible and cute proctor girl gakki.
Therefore, in order to attract more gimmicks to customers, Qin Han also spent money to hire a girl, cosplaying Tosaka Rin as the prologue lady.
The reason why Rin Tosaka didn't choose Saber was because he just made a temporary decision and it was too late to make that armor.
The girl hired for a daily salary of 10,000 yen is also a student at Musashino University of Fine Arts. She is a freshman this year and is from Hokkaido and is named Nanamo Hashimoto.
Qin Han felt that this name was a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while. Whether she was a celebrity in her previous life or had heard of it in this parallel world, so she didn't ask anything more in front of the girls.
However, this beautiful girl with pretty short hair still satisfies Qin Han in appearance. The photos on the Internet that were distorted with PS can attract a group of cute coser ladies who licked her knees and licked her, and she could only get crushed into scum.
Wearing a wig, cosplaying Tosaka Rin, the effect is perfect.
Although this girl is beautiful and has a cold temperament, it is not difficult to get along with. Even Wu Lan, who has never been in a relationship at first sight, sometimes praises her very bluntly in order to get close to her, and Nanamo Hashimoto can respond politely and gently.
"Wu Sang, you're over the award. My name is not Ferrari Nanaima." The girl said, then took out her phone and browsed her Twitter. "I have a classmate who said that she just saw four pain cars at the school gate, and the characters in "FATE/stay-night" were sprayed on it. I guess this is why it plays a publicity role."
Nanamo Hashimoto took the phone to Qin Han and saw four supercars lined up, with four characters Artoria, Tosaka Rin, Maki Sakura and Ilia being painted on the body, which was particularly eye-catching.
"So that's the reason... I knew that there would be no purchase limit for fan today. If I had printed 20,000 or 30,000 copies, I would definitely be able to sell it out. It would be better to have rich fans~" Qin Han joked.
As he was talking, two NHK reporters also arrived.
"Teacher Qin Han, I just met a few of your fans outside the school, and I conducted an interview. The total price of their pain trucks exceeded 300 million yen, and they drove all the way from Hokkaido... It's so exaggerating!"
As soon as they met, Dongma Xiahe said excitedly.
"Oh, I already know. Where are they?"
"I'm going to the back of the team honestly."
"Because of their luxury car promotion, they brought me so many customers, but they had to queue longer. Is this considered to be self-inflicted?" Qin Han smiled.
He took out four fan books so that he would not sell them all in a while. It would be no longer beautiful for the four guys to come back empty-handed in such a big fight.
Of course, apart from this, the Qin and Han dynasties were not prepared to give any special preferential treatment to the four local tyrants.
As a creator, it is enough to just come up with good enough works. Like some so-called celebrity idols who have no moral integrity, he can't flatter and lick rich fans.
Throughout the morning, Qin Han was busy selling books, and by the way, he exchanged close contact with his fans to listen to his opinions and expectations. The two NHK reporters were divided into two groups. Xiaomu Yugoro followed Qin Han. Dongma Xiahe was walking around with the camera.
During lunch, "FATE/stay-night" was sold out successfully. While Qin Han was busy cleaning up the stall, Dong Maxiahe ran back with a large stack of fan book.
"Teacher Qin Han, look... look at these fan books!"
Qin Han quickly scanned the covers of these books and knew why Dongmaxiahe was so anxious.
Because these fan-made characters, whether they are original stories or re-creation of commercial comics, whether they are leisurely and daily styles or fierce fighting stories, whether they are general or R18, they are all imitating the Qin and Han styles!
There are even people who are creating the fan book of "Daily Safe Milk"!
The author is quite creative when painting a fan-book.
Qin Han silently wrote the word "super" in his heart.
"Some are pretty good, imitating my style has gained some sensibility, but most of them are still too immature."
"Teacher Qin Han, what do you think about this?" Dongma Xiahe, as a reporter, always forgets to interview and ask questions.
"I feel very happy. This shows that my painting style has been recognized by many creators."
The Qin and Han dynasties had long anticipated this situation. Originally, painting techniques were developed and developed through mutual reference and learning.
It would be a good thing to push the overall style of the comics industry in this world for more than ten years and evolve ahead.
"Do you think this is a plagiarism? I saw that there are several fan-book styles that are quite exquisite. In time, perhaps your style will no longer be unique in the Japanese comics industry. Are you worried?"
"This is learning and imitation, and it is not as serious as plagiarism. Moreover, my style of painting has reached this point after learning from many of the advantages of my predecessors and integrating the styles of each school."
Facing the camera, Qin Han talked freely: "As for the latter question, I will tell you a sentence, "Those who learn from me live, those who like me die." I have gained a foothold in the comics industry, not just based on this style of painting. I thought that if I could draw a good hand, I could become a best-selling cartoonist. It is best to throw away this naive idea as soon as possible."
After saying that, Qin Han smiled: "Oh, I seem to have said something amazing by accident."
"'Those who learn from me live, those who like me die', this sentence is indeed amazing, Teacher Qin and Han!" After thinking for a while, Dongma Xiahe, who had come to his senses, couldn't help but praise.
