Chapter 12 1 bet

“Congratulations, your work has passed. The next issue of the magazine will publish “Equation of Love”.” An excited tone came from the microphone, and Yan Fu was really happy for Shen Xin.

“Really?”

Shen Xin’s hanging heart finally let go.

“That’s right! The magazine will be published in a week, and the manuscript fee will be credited to your account in the middle of next month-yes, pseudonym, what pseudonym are you going to use? Or should you use your real name?”

“Pen name?” Shen Xin frowned, unable to think of a suitable name for a while.

If the next comic series chooses Wenchao Gong, then the name should have a certain connection with the original author, so that his heart will at least feel better.

But whether the editorial department of the magazine agrees to serialization depends on the reader’s acceptance, so he can only wait for the results now.

“Should I use my real name first? If it can be serialized, I will consider a new pen name.” Shen Xin gave a reply after thinking about it.

“Also, but I still suggest that you can give me a suitable pen name, but it will be with you for a long time?”

Shen Xin knows Yan Fu’s kindness, just like a web author, in some websites, the pen name is really important, and changing the pen name indiscriminately can easily lose popularity.

After thanking him, Shen Xin didn’t take the pen name to his heart. The reason for choosing his real name was that apart from not being able to find a suitable pen name, this comic is also his first original comic, which has a certain commemorative significance. Use it. Real name is not too much.

However, after he accidentally told Xi Muxin about the pen name, the little girl thought for a while and came up with a pen name called “Xiyang”.

“Xiyang” and “Sunset” are homophonic, but its original meaning is not here.

If you disassemble and reorganize “Xi Yang”, you will find that the names are “Xi” and “Ri”, and “Ri” is part of “Xin”. Therefore, this name is equivalent to representing him and Xi Muxun.

“Good name, but I still decided to use my real name.” Shen Xin rejected Xi Muxin’s proposal.

It is not that he thinks the name is not good, but that if he uses this pen name, there is always a strange feeling.

Xi Muxun blinked her eyes, obviously a little disappointed, but since Shen Xin was unwilling, she didn’t say much.

Suddenly when he was free, Shen Xin felt a little at a loss. He also wanted to go to a nearby shop to work as Xi Muxin did, but he was worried that Yan Wei would call him at any time to discuss the serialization of comics.

After thinking about it, the safest way is to practice painting first.

Shen Xin holds the G pen and draws lines on the paper, imitating the comic strip and composition.

Before the questionnaire came out, Shen Xin could only be patient and forced himself to focus on painting.

During 　　, Yan Fu also contacted him once and brought a sample of the new magazine.

Smelling the ink scent from the pages of the book, Shen Xin was also in a lot of joy.

“By the way, the trial issue of “Dreamer” after the revision has been confirmed, two weeks later.”

“Then… Chen Zijiao’s works will also be published on it?” Shen Xin curiously asked.

Yan Fu nodded, “Not only is it published on it, but it’s also a color page.”

Yunhai’s comic editing circle is not large, and there will be mixed rumours at any time. This news is heard by Yan Fu from Xiaoli.

Shen Xin looked solemn.

Most comic magazines are mainly black and white, but there are two places where color pages are placed, one is at the ends of the magazine, and the other is in the middle of the magazine. Among them, the color page at the beginning of the magazine is the best position, which is very helpful to the popularity of comics.

To give an improper example, the front page color page is similar to the large-scale push of a web site. It is difficult for newcomers with no achievements to get this position. However, once the front page color page is obtained, then there is a good chance of becoming a magazine. Pedestal.

“Sister Yan, is it possible for my feature-length series to start with a color page?” Shen Xin asked Yan Fu tentatively.

“Impossible.” Yan Fu quickly extinguished Shen Xin’s hope. “Chen Zijiao also caught up with the revision of “Dreamer”, and “Dreamer” also urgently needs a popular king. According to the previous practice, he did not have qualifications.”

“That’s it.” Shen Xin sighed. Although he was prepared, he was still a little frustrated when he was rejected like this.

Yan Fu also noticed Shen Xin’s emotions, and could understand his emotions.

In her opinion, Shen Xin and Chen Zijiao are both promising newcomers, but they are treated differently because of different magazines, which is really unfair.

“Shen Xin… Would you like to gamble with me.” Yan Fu pondered for a long time, and finally made up his mind.

“How to bet?” Shen Xin asked puzzled.

“If you can draw high-quality serialized comic strips, and give me reasons to convince the editor-in-chief and other editors, I can fight for you at the serialization meeting for the front page of the first chapter.” said After this sentence, Yan Fu’s forehead also shed sweat.

Without the consent of the editor-in-chief, he made a promise to Shen Xin that it was a “scroll page”, and Yan Fu was under a lot of pressure.

“Really?” Shen Xin said in surprise.

“Yes. But there are some things, I want to remind you.” Yan Fu took a deep breath, and before Shen Xin asked, he continued, “First of all, I’m just fighting for you, but I may not be able to win it completely. I am. Just an editor.”

“Yeah.” Shen Xin could understand this sentence, and the editor-in-chief, not Yan Fu, finally made the decision. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

“Also…I hope that things related to comics must follow my arrangements. Don’t worry, I won’t harm you.” Yan Fu looked at Shen Xin anxiously.

“Is there any accident?” Shen Xin looked at Yan Fu suspiciously.

“How come? I just want to be the best.” Yan Fu comforted.

“Then please.”

In terms of comics, the only person Shen Xin can rely on now is Yan Fu. Although he feels a little uneasy, he can only trust him unconditionally.

This conversation gave Shen Xin a lot of motivation. In any case, he wanted the winning prize. Of course, in this way, the range of comics he can choose from was reduced a lot.

On Monday of the next week, “Weekly NewWorld” magazine will be published. Xi Muxin, who works in the bookstore, bought five copies in one go.

Shen Xin looked at the magazine on the dining table and couldn’t laugh or cry.

“Why do you buy more magazines?”

“One book for collection, one book for reading.”

“What about the other three?”

“After sending the questionnaire, give it away.”

“Have not you seen it?”

Yan Fu sent the sample magazine in the evening, Xi Muxun had already watched “Formula of Love” for one night.

“Well, but the sample publication is not the same as the official publication. Brother Xin, the store manager has a high evaluation of your comic.” Xi Muxin brought the food to the table.

Shen Xin, who was serving a meal, raised his head, “What did she say?”

“She said that she hadn’t seen such a good-looking short comic in a long time. By the way, she will also send a questionnaire this time specifically to support you.” Xi Muxin looked up and thought back.

“Thank you the store manager, then.” Shen Xin didn’t expect that this cartoon has attracted the attention of older people. I don’t know if it is a surprise.
