Chapter 898 New Comics 1 (12)
The brainstorming began. Xin Xiaoguang first glanced at Zhang Tan and saw that he was just looking down at his phone with no intention of speaking, so he spoke first, explaining the topic, and then let everyone talk freely, allowing sparks to come from the collision of ideas.
It is said to be a theme, but in fact it means there is no theme. Xin Xiaoguang just said that he would make a new comic. As for the theme and type of this new comic, there is no limit at all.
Xin Xiaoguang spoke first.
"Then let me throw some light on things. As for the subject matter of the new comics, I wonder if we can break through our previous limitations this time. Looking back on the comics we have finished and are currently working on, the audience is actually adults, at least 14 For teenagers over 20 years old, "Castle in the Sky" is, "Qin Shi Mingyue" is, "Insect Master" is even more so, not to mention "Swordsman Life and Death", we have a gap in the field of younger children. "
As soon as he finished speaking, some people subconsciously looked at Xiaobai and Xi'er, who were sitting in the corner eating raisins. Aren't these two young children?
The two younger children were whispering to each other, their little heads together, pinching raisins from Xi'er's hand and chewing them, showing no interest in the discussion outside.
They are just here to show their support and support.
After Xin Xiaoguang finished speaking, someone said: "We do have gaps in comics for younger children, but younger children do not have the spending power, so the sales of comics may not increase. If the sales do not increase, the value will be greatly reduced."
Another person continued, "Consumption power is indeed a problem, and there are too many restrictions on comics for young children. If you are not careful, you may be cut off. Wasn't there news not long ago that the character in an online animation has blue hair? , I was sued by my parents and actually won, how can I do this?”
Someone laughed and said: "Then don't have blue hair. Isn't black good? The cartoons of us Orientals are made to look like Westerners. This trend is very bad! I'm not making excuses, this is actually The mentality of admiring foreign things is at work.”
The person who spoke before was very unhappy after hearing this, and retorted: "Don't blame me randomly, why has it become a worship of foreigners? This has a historical heritage, and it didn't become like this all of a sudden. Consumers have such preferences, and we As content creators, of course we have to act in accordance with the laws of the market. If the market doesn’t have this demand, can we just go ahead and create it? Can’t we put all the responsibility on the creators?”
"I don't put all the responsibility on the creators, I just remind us that there is no need to be opportunistic now. I even think that our Little Red Horse Comics Studio should be the leader of domestic comics and the creator of trends, not surfers."
"That makes sense!"
"We could definitely give it a try."
"The ambition sounds great, but in reality it means making every comic well."
"I agree, but how to do it?"
"How to do it? The easiest way is to carry forward our traditional culture and draw nutrients from our long and splendid history and culture."
"Then we need to innovate."
"Do you want to do ancient times? Like "Qin Shi Mingyue"? In fact, I think we should focus on the future. We do not lack good stories derived from traditional culture, but we lack stories about fantasy about the future."
…
The discussion was very intense. Seeing that Zhang Tan had been listening and taking notes from time to time, Xin Xiaoguang asked him quietly: "Boss, tell me?"
Just when Zhang Tan was about to say yes, he saw Xiaobai get down from the chair, lead Xi'er and quietly go out along the wall. He happened to pass by his feet, so he turned around and asked, "Why are you going?"
"hiahiahiahia~~~~" Xi'er smiled shyly and said nothing.
Xiaobai was not so reserved and said directly: "Shhhhh~~"
Zhang Tan: "Huh?"
Didn't react.
"Pee~"
Only then did Zhang Tan realize that Yang Xue beside him stood up and said with a smile: "Boss, I will take them there."
"Sorry to trouble you," Zhang Tan said, sitting down again.
Yang Xue went out with two children holding hands. When she looked down and saw their big bellies, she asked funnyly: "What is hidden in the belly? It's so bloated."
Xiaobai laughed and said that he had eaten a lot of rice.
Yang Xue stretched out her hand and touched it. Just as Xiaobai was about to shout something cutely, she saw that the hand that Yang Xue was touching her belly suddenly turned into a small bag of snacks.
"See what I found out from your belly?"
Xiaobai and Xi'er were shocked. Xiaobai lowered his head and touched his belly, and Xi'er lifted up her clothes to check.
"Guawazi, where do you live?" Xiaobai pulled away Xi'er's little hands that were holding up her clothes, and put the clothes down to cover her belly, "It's up to you."
Xi'er hiahia smiled, and sure enough, she lifted up her clothes and looked at her belly, but found nothing.
"Where did you change?" Xiaobai asked Yang Xue curiously.
Yang Xue smiled and said, "I'll take it out of your belly."
Xiaobai snorted, "You're lying to a three-year-old child!"
Xi'er said, "Xiao Bai, she really made something delicious."
Xiaobai glared at her, "You three-year-old idiot!"
Yang Xue smiled and said: "Don't you believe it? This is magic. Then I will show it to you again. Whose belly can I borrow this time?"
Xiaobai glanced at Xi'er, who was both nervous and excited, and asked weakly: "Will I die?"
She was a little worried that Miss Yang Xue would make her disappear.
Yang Xue smiled and said: "No, it's not life-threatening. It's a very safe little magic."
Xi'er asked again: "Have you eaten the magic beans?"
Yang Xue said she had eaten it when she was Xier's age.
Xier immediately cried out and believed it, even though Xiaobai had been reminding her not to believe these words that deceived three-year-old children.
But Xier not only believed it all, but also persuaded Xiaobai that it was all true.
Yang Xue also touched her little belly and took out a small bag of snacks, which surprised Xier.
Although Xiaobai was suspicious, he couldn't find any loopholes.
"This is from your stomach, and now I give it back to you."
Yang Xue gave two bags of snacks to Xiaobai and Xier. They were hawthorn slices, which promoted digestion.
Xiaobai and Xier didn't know the words on the package and didn't know what they were. Xiaobai asked if it was poop.
She knew that only poop came out of the stomach, nothing else! Don't try to deceive her!
...
When the two little ones returned to the meeting room, Zhang Tan stared at them. They went out to pee and came back to eat again!
Zhang Tan came back to his senses and continued: "Where were we talking just now? Oh, right, telling new stories from traditional culture."
Xiaobai listened to him talking, his little mouth stopped, and he looked over cleverly.
Xier continued to kick her legs and eat hawthorn slices. This thing was sour and sweet, which suited her appetite.
Zhang Tan: "You can find stories in the four great classics, such as Sun Wukong in "Journey to the West". Can you take this character out and tell a separate story?"
Xin Xiaoguang immediately said: "Take Sun Wukong as the protagonist and retell the story of "Journey to the West". Everyone has a "Journey to the West" in their eyes."
Yang Xue immediately objected: "No matter how the story of "Journey to the West" is told, it is familiar to everyone, lacking novelty and expectation."
Someone said: "Then tell the story of Sun Wukong alone and make this classic a fiction."
"Will that cause readers' disgust? After all, it is a classic, and it is slightly changed. If you are a little dissatisfied, your emotions may be magnified. "
"It is indeed a thankless task, just like a TV series, it is generally difficult to say that a remake is successful."
"Then jump out and write another story."
Zhang Tan said: "Just use the character of Sun Wukong, and don't use the literary character in the setting. We can make the character more modern. For example, the setting background is not in the fantasy world, but in the modern world, but not in the real world like ours, but in a future high-level martial arts world. Do you know what the high-level martial arts world is?"
With Zhang Tan's step-by-step guidance, the previous life's "Dragon Ball" gradually formed a framework...
