The script homeland Tian Yingshu said, what is the protagonist’s mission? The most important thing is to let the audience enter the feelings and experience the story together; then, at the climax of the story, make decisions and take action; then change and grow. When you do this, this character will become the real protagonist. .

The game magazine “Weekly Famitsu” issued by Kadokawa Group produced the cover of “The RPG that can take a lifetime” on November 29, 2018. On the cover, there are singers Kobayashi Sachiko who will appear in the game, Pop TE EPIC debut Pop, and the comic bookstore that is being destroyed by Pop. .
“POP TEAM EPIC” comic author Da Chuanqi got the magazine, could not help but question: Bamboo book in this form appeared on the cover of other publishers’ magazine, what is the mood? .

TBS TV broadcasted the popular documentary program “Enthusiasm Mainland” last night, focusing on the author of the comic book “The Attacking Giant”. The complex relationship between Lushan and his father reflected in the program has led to many audience discussions. .
In the documentary, Lushan mentioned that when he was in high school, he once hit his father in his room and watched him sneak a half-manuscript. The father said to him: “You can’t be a cartoonist. You can’t be a cartoonist.” And his father didn’t remember this. .
Lushan’s father said in front of the camera that he saw “The Attacking Giant”. The first impression was “Drawing really bad”, “Difficult to read” and “Unsightly”, and even suspected that “Is there a similar ghostwriting? The class is in.” .
This attitude of Lushan’s father has infuriated many viewers. In The Attack on the Giant, the relationship between the protagonist Allen and his father is a crucial clue. From this point of view, this is likely to be the projection of the author’s own father-son relationship. .
And the person who is in charge of the mountain, he did not care what his father said at the time, “You can’t be a cartoonist.” I only think “what can you say?” This aspect reveals that he has become accustomed to the denial of his father. On the other hand, he also sighs the audience: perhaps because he has such a firm will not be shaken by others’ evaluation, can he achieve today’s achievements. .
But I have to say that it is too arbitrary to make a less than good-willing attitude towards other people’s family relationships with just a few minutes of TV programs. But this kind of speculation can be endorsed by thousands of netizens. It seems that there are too many viewers who see the projection of their own or unsatisfactory family relationships on the screen of the father and son of Lushan. .
The cartoonist Suzuki was invited to come to Dongguan, China and Xiamen to participate in the event. There were many bumps on the way. For example, the taxi driver was too troublesome to enter the train station and took him to the middle of the road. He relied on the guide of the English-speaking passers-by, finally found the ticket-purchasing point, the team that had been in the queue for a long time, but could not contact the agent in China, and almost missed the ticket and missed the high-speed rail. There are people who play games without headphones in the car. The sound effects of the game are endless, making him lament that China is a country that tests and cultivates. .
However, what surprised Suzuki most was that he learned that as long as he released electronic comics in China, Japan and Korea, he would get a good draft fee. But to his surprise, Japan’s draft fees are the lowest in the three countries. When did it become like this? He fell into deep thought. .
The cartoonist Yuki Masami asked if he could sell the book in China. Suzuki turned to the Chinese again. The answer is that although in Japan, the more popular writers, the greater the proportion of income in the single-line book; but in China, the cartoonist is similar to the artist, if it is a handsome man, the law will be sold. totally different. As for the single book, no one buys it. This answer also made him feel uncomfortable.
Someone who knows about the situation in the Asian comics’ industry has introduced Suzuki to a more in-depth situation. It turns out that the Japanese manga draft fee is not as good as that of China and South Korea. It is not because Japan has deflation all year round. It is not because Japanese cartoonists have destroyed the balance of supply and demand too much, but the word “manuscript fee” has different meanings in different countries. .
Japan’s “manuscript fee” refers to the right to publish once in a magazine. When the work is reprinted into other magazines, or when a different version of the book is published, a new contract is required. .
And the “manuscript fee” of China and South Korea is the cost of buying out all the rights. Not to mention the single book, many times, even the rights of surrounding goods are included. So it will take for granted. .
The other party told Suzuki that the cartoonists in China and South Korea are not living very easily. He also feels normal. He said that China is an exciting country and he wants to further explore the differences between Chinese and Korean and Japanese comics. .
