Chapter two hundred and seventy fifth guest
In the evening, Chu Yu and Li Xi were having dinner in a restaurant.
Li Xi was quite picking up food for Chu Yu, otherwise Chu Yu would be too pitiful, his hands were sore and weak when he signed the signature, so he ate there with a spoon.
"It's so tiring! Li Xi will not arrange this kind of activity next time he has such an activity. I would rather draw comics all day than be so tiring."
Chu Yu has said this to Li Xi less than ten times today, but looking at her expression, Chu Yu himself feels that there is no chance.
"By the way, Chu Yu, I have something to tell you." Li Xi said when Chu Yu had almost eaten.
"What's the matter?" Chu Yu asked.
"The editor-in-chief of Xuan Turtle is going to replace him."
"Oh! Just change it! Anyway, I haven't been to the Black Turtle a few times a year, and I have pushed the invitation to the annual meeting for two consecutive years. I don't know many insiders of the Black Turtle. It has nothing to do with me when it changes the editor-in-chief, just don't change the editor!" Chu Yu said indifferently.
"Where do you know why you came to the Demon Capital from Luo Province. They dare not change me at will with the lessons of the past." Li Xi said softly.
"But things are not as simple as you said, at least the new editor-in-chief is not as easy to talk to as Editor-in-chief Deng. If she takes office, your idea of completing Natsume's friend account and the introductory text D will not be so easy to achieve."
"If I understand the contract between Xuangui and I, I have the right to complete the work independently!" Chu Yu looked up at Li Xi.
"That's right," Li Xi said.
"Then that's all." Chu Yu lowered his head and continued to eat.
"But this new editor-in-chief said in public that he would firmly stop you from completing two works and asked me to persuade you to change your mind." Li Xi looked at Chu Yu and said seriously.
"So are you here today to talk to me about this?" Chu Yu frowned.
"Forget it, Li Xi, I have already told you my thoughts. I don't want to waste too much time on such meaningless things."
"I didn't come to persuade you." Li Xi smiled rarely.
"Although she asked me to persuade you, she has not yet taken office and is officially the editor-in-chief. I have no obligation to listen to her orders."
"I just told you that there is such a person inside the Black Turtle now, and this person has such a requirement for you. This is my obligation as your editor, but in the end, how to continue your career as a cartoonist is the only one who can decide."
"But" Li Xi looked at Chu Yu.
"Although you don't need to be afraid of the editor-in-chief of Xuan Turtle, after all, you are ready to complete two popular comics just as soon as she took office. For her, there are indeed sufficient reasons to stop you for her work performance. So if you want to establish a good relationship with her, you can also consider her situation appropriately and delay the completion date of the two works."
"What are you thinking about?" Chu Yu looked at Li Xi.
"I don't know her, so why should I consider her situation and disrupt my plan? If you, Li Xi, are the editor-in-chief, I would consider this suggestion for her, forget it. My cooperation with Xuangui is mainly about how to better spread my comics and enable both parties to achieve a win-win situation, rather than having Xuangui's interpersonal relationships."
Chu Yu's tone of speaking was the same as before, but his meaning was clearly conveyed.
This guy has never changed, and he still has this temper.
Li Xi nodded, and she didn't think Chu Yu could consider this pros and cons, otherwise she wouldn't have had a quarrel with the previous comic company and came to the Magic City. Anyway, she just analyzed the situation to Chu Yu. Since Chu Yu made such a choice, she wouldn't say much.
But, at the end, she reminded Chu Yu a little.
"If you are sure to complete the two works of "D" and Natsume Friends' Account within half a year, as an editor, I respect your opinions, but Chu Yu, you have to think clearly that if your new work results and quality do not meet the standards of these two works, you will face great pressure."
"It's not only the pressure from the inside of the Black Turtle, but also from the pressure from fans and many media in the Dragon Kingdom. At that time, the public opinion impact you face will be very high. Many cartoonists in the Dragon Kingdom have finished their old works, but the results of the new works are not satisfactory and are criticized by fans, and eventually they are disheartened and quit this circle."
"I understand." Chu Yu nodded.
The two of them didn't continue to talk on this topic. After dinner, they went home.
In the following days, Chu Yu gradually became busy. In addition to completing comic creation on a daily basis, he also went to T Bone Animation Company to serve as a guide for the production of the introductory D animation on weekends.
Of course, Chu Yu also took out the original BGM with the introductory text D at the right time. After all, although the original introductory text D animation is a bit old, the quality of the animation soundtrack is undeniable.
Whether it is the brisk "TakeMeHigher" that was after Takumi won the game, the classic temptation rDream", or the interlude "Wingsoffire" in the final battle with Mako Usui and the anime version of the super-sensing divine song "stay" that really put out a song that was of high quality.
Of course, Chu Yu did not provide it to T-Bone Animation Production Company for free. Although Chu Yu doesn’t like the song usage fee of hundreds of thousands now, he still has to collect the money he should charge.
So after Xia Yin's animation production team received Chu Yu's music gift package, many people fell silent.
They remembered the rumor that was circulated in the animation world of Dragon Kingdom
As long as it is an animation that changes the works of Shui Xin, Shui Xin can always find excellent soundtracks from various horns and bumps, but when asked where these soundtracks came from, the answer was that he bought from all kinds of friends who played music.
But how could a music creator of this level be unknown in the Dragon Kingdom?
So many people are speculating whether the soundtracks that Shui Xin took out were created by him. When Xia Yin came to her, she always felt that if this guess was correct, then this young man who was a few years younger than her would be too terrible.
In the comics industry, he is already a big shot. In the animation industry, the work of screenwriters and investors seems to be doing well. If he has such a strong talent in music, if he integrates his skills, he feels that he can create an animation by himself.
In this case, a week has passed, and the sales of a single-line book with the initial text D have also come out in the first week.
The average weekly sales volume reached 700,000 copies, and the total sales volume of the first three volumes reached nearly 2.3 million copies.
This sales volume is undoubtedly the sales champion of the newly released single-book of Longguo Comics last week, and it is a tenth of the number leading comics in the second place.
Judging from this trend, the sales of at least 2 million volumes will definitely be stable. You should know that this is the single-line version of a comic work that has not yet been animated. Tang Xin's Dream World, with the support of animation, is now only more than 2.3 million volumes.
If the first text D animation is broadcast, the sales of this work's single-line book will definitely increase, but the ultimate point of growth will be purely based on the taste and quality of the Dragon Kingdom anime fans.
This single-line book sales result directly made Chu Yu completely stable in the comics industry. Even the most harsh comic media and comic reviewers would no longer refer to Chu Yu as a young man and his single-line book performance.
And the animation production team of the magic girl Xiaoyuan, not far from Chu Yu's house.
Those animation practitioners who have joined this team have gradually understood what kind of work they are going to produce.
At the same time, they also felt the deep malice of Shui Xin to his fans.
The theme of magic girl is a promise. You can create these plots with animations of this theme. It is indeed a warrior of love.
Huang Ming became much more full as the animation progressed.
For a moment, in the animation world of Magic City, everyone suddenly felt that the name of Shui Xin, which frequently appeared in their ears in the past two years, gradually became less frequent.
Under such circumstances, when June was about to end, an uninvited guest suddenly came to Chu Yu's home.
A woman brought by Li Xi was a little older.
"Hello, I am Liu Ling, who will take over as the editor-in-chief of Xuangui Comic Club next month!"
As soon as the woman entered the door, she reported her identity and kept looking at Chu Yu's residence and Chu Yu himself.
Chu Yu sighed without revealing his mark. Why are these people so idle?
He had already told the people sent by Xuangui so many times about his idea of completing two works, and he didn't know why this woman had to come to her house in person.
Chu Yu has already told the people who came before that no matter who comes, his decision will not change.
"Hello, I'm Chu Yu." Chu Yu replied to the woman.
"I guess Chu Yu, you have guessed what you want to me! Then I won't keep it from hiding you." Liu Ling said with a smile on her eyes.
"You should guess the purpose of my visit here, but it's still the same thing. I hope you can take back the decision to complete Natsume's friend account and the introductory text D within five months?"
It's true
When Chu Yu heard this, he said very directly.
"I have answered this question many times, but I can't do it!"
The atmosphere suddenly became subtle.
When Liu Ling was in the Xuan Turtle Operations Department, she said the truth, but few people rejected her with such a tough attitude.
"Is it okay even if I, the editor-in-chief of the Black Turtle, come personally to ask you to take it back?" Liu Ling asked at Chu Yu.
"no!"
Chu Yu always speaks so straightforwardly, but Liu Ling sounds a little uncomfortable.
"Can I hear the reason Chu Yu, you must finish these two works?" Liu Ling took a deep breath and asked.
"I think it's time to finish them! So it's over." Chu Yu responded.
"But I think these two works are not yet over yet." Liu Ling said to Chu Yu.
Do you think?
Chu Yu frowned.
What do you think does it have to do with me?
When Li Xi heard Liu Ling's words and saw Chu Yu's expression, he knew that something was wrong. Liu Ling was in the operation department and was afraid that she had some thoughts.
Is this regarding Chu Yu as a subordinate of her operation department?
"I am the author of these two works. I think they should be finished. I just use the ideas of others as a reference and I have no obligation to adopt them." Chu Yu still held back and did not have an attack.
"But, I think as the editor-in-chief of the Black Turtle Comics Club, my words should be of some weight! Chu Yu, you should consider my proposal carefully. After all, I am planning to vigorously promote Natsume's friend account and introductory text D, as well as the three works of Dream World, and will mainly promote your character designs and Tang Xin's genius cartoonist."
"Okay!"
Chu Yu was too lazy to continue talking to people who were not speculative.
"If you only took office as the editor-in-chief of Xuan Turtle next month, then it's not right now, and I'm going to draw comics, so I may not have time to chat here."
Chu Yu pointed at the door of his house and looked at Liu Ling, and his meaning was very clear.
Chapter completed!
