Of course Xu Qingru also noticed that many of her new girl fans were as festive as if they were celebrating a festival, full of expectations for her new work "Your Lie in April"...
The background of this story is a story set in a youthful campus, which makes them very happy. They are not very old, basically middle and high school students. Of course, they like stories that take place on campus, which will make them very immersed in it. feel.
The girl fans were as happy as if they were celebrating a festival, but Xu Qingru’s larger number of male readers were a little unhappy. No, the third work in the Condor Series was promised, and they were dying to wait for it!
Some Xu Qingru Heizi also used this to make a fuss and set the rhythm, and jumped out to create a sense of presence.
Of course, Xu Qingru was too lazy to respond to these clowns jumping up and down. She just appeased her male readers. First of all, she said that her new comic was also suitable for male readers because the protagonist was a boy. As for the martial arts comics of the Condor Series, Jiang Xue had to first Of course, writing the Four Lies can only be postponed.
However, Xu Qingru also thought of an idea to calm the resentment of these male readers, that is, to collaborate with other painters on another Jin Yong style martial arts work. It is none other than "The Swordsman"!
Anyway, as long as there are martial arts works of a similar style, the resentment of those martial arts fans can be temporarily quelled. And just as she used the promise of this vest, "The Sentimental Swordsman", a collaboration with Chen Mengguo, will soon start a new serialization.
To be honest, whether it is "The Swordsman" or "The Sentimental Swordsman" (Xiao Li Fei Dao), they are both quite profound, and the protagonist's experiences will also make readers feel uncomfortable, such as "The Swordsman" The main character, Linghu Chong's childhood sweetheart Yue Lingshan, ends up miserable after she chooses Lin Ping. In "The Passionate Swordsman", Li Xunhuan takes the initiative to give away his wife, which is even more difficult for ordinary readers to accept...
Therefore, in Xu Qingru's view, these two seriously poisonous works might as well be published together. They are poisonous, but they are indeed classics. "The Swordsman" was adapted into a TV series in the earth world. There are countless versions. As for Li Xunhuan played by Jiao Enjun in "Little Li Flying Knives", it also left a deep impression on many viewers.
However, Xu Qingru is also prepared for a decline in popularity. After all, Xu Qingru's readers should be looking forward to the third part of "The Condor", "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer", and "Guo Xiang's Extra Chapter" has made this expectation even further. Who can What do you want to watch about "Swordsman"?
But there is nothing we can do now. Jiang Xue, who specializes in painting the Condor Series, has to paint other things first, so everyone can only hold their noses and accept the "meal replacement" thrown by Xu Qingru.
The artist Xu Qingru worked with on "Swordsman" is a senior artist under the "Aiyou" company. He has rich experience and is very good at painting ancient characters and scenes. She is lucky enough to be able to work with Xu Qingru. A happy one.
It's just that Xu Qingru's sudden change of the creative plan for the third part of The Condor Heroes to Swordsman made the editors of "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times. Martial Arts" magazine quite passive.
They fully thought that after finishing The Condor, the other party would immediately create a third part. However, after procrastinating, it ended up like this...
Obviously, a comic can be infinitely long and water-filled, and its popularity can be completely converted into profits. A comic is enough for a lifetime, but a work that can be drawn for ten years has been completed by you in such a short time. Okay, can this not make people crazy?
There are many companies that have good cooperative relations with "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times. Martial Arts". They have put forward opinions to the magazine's top management many times. They hope that one of Xu Qingru's works can be longer, such as animation. Many Animations were all broadcast when the comics were still being serialized. In this case, animation and comics can complement each other and increase each other's popularity.
But for Xu Qingru’s martial arts comic works, whenever the animated version is produced, the comic is about to end, which is too embarrassing...
Then Xu Qingru also has his own studio, just like a star, and a professional team of lawyers responsible for copyright, etc. "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times. Martial Arts" cannot take any advantage in cooperating with her, which makes " Some senior executives of "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times. Martial Arts" were very unhappy.
They always feel that the best-selling martial arts comic magazine like "Legends of Ancient Times. Martial Arts" should be more forceful towards its authors and obtain more benefits, especially in the development of copyright peripherals.
For these reasons, the editor-in-chief Ding Yixiang was also implicated. After all, in order to win over Xu Qingru, he gave her many privileges and made many concessions.
Now it is clear that Xu Qingru should create the third part of "The Condor", "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer", but she instead created "The Swordsman". Is this a trick to the magazine, editors, and readers?
If you hadn't promised yourself that you would continue to create the third part of The Condor Heroes, then the magazine would never have allowed you to finish "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" easily...
The magazine hopes that Xu Qingru can continue to draw "The Condor", even in this way of the first, second, third and fourth parts. After all, in a sense, this can be regarded as a super movie. It’s a long story, but the protagonist is different in each one.
However, Xu Qingru casually chose to create "Swordsman", which seems to be a purely fictional martial arts comic that is not integrated with history at all. This is simply abandoning his best characteristics and reversing the direction of history!
Now Xu Qingru has indeed become a gold standard in the field of martial arts, especially martial arts that is seamlessly integrated with history. Many people even think that she can easily create the most popular works, as long as she does not suddenly suffer from literary youth disease. Then her works will definitely be welcomed by readers!
However, "The Swordsman" does not have a historical background. "Because I want to write about some universal characters and common phenomena in life, this book has no historical background. This means that similar scenes can happen in any dynasty." Jin Yong, the original author So said. This work reflects the political struggle, but also expresses the lamentation of the struggle, and has certain political implications.
However, after this setting of martial arts and martial arts without historical background was handed over to the magazine "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times. Martial Arts", many editors were not optimistic about it, because Xu Qingru's martial arts works should be seamlessly embedded in history. Yes, those historical figures appear in martial arts comics, which should make people feel immersed in them, but this time it is a completely imaginary martial arts comic. This is simply exploiting weaknesses and avoiding strengths!
Isn't that kind of fictional martial arts work that Teacher Xu Nuo is good at? Why are you, Xu Qingru, joining in the fun?
