"Does that person come to the second floor often...Sister Ruoxuan?"

Wu Hongyan's eyes were pointed, and she first saw Li Ruoxuan sitting near the glass wall of the cafe and talking to a foreign girl.

Li Ruoxuan often comes to fantasy electric animation. Over time, even newcomers like Wu Hongyan know about this editor, but she has never been here since May. Now she is surprised to see her in England.

The discussion between Li Ruoxuan and the other party seemed to have come to an end. She stood up and shook hands with the other party. The young girl who looked young immediately left the cafe, leaving only Li Ruoxuan alone.

"Really, she's coming to England too?"

Lin Shuyi had never heard of these things and was very surprised at this moment.

After thinking about it, they went into the cafe and said hello.

Li Ruoxuan was a little surprised by the appearance of the two, but was not surprised.

"I have greeted Brother Anyuan before and am going to help you welcome you tomorrow."

She explained that as the main person in charge of New Frontline Media in Europe, Li Ruoxuan basically often has to fly around here, and Fantasy Electronics' trip to England has naturally contacted Li Ruoxuan.

"Sister Ruoxuan, was that manga author just now?"

Wu Hongyan asked mysteriously.

"Well, right, she needs work during the day and only has time to discuss storyboards at night."

Li Ruoxuan has a file bag in her hand, and it must be some comic information inside.

"The editorial department of England has just been established, and I have to stay here to maintain the author for the past month."

She explained.

"I don't know what the comics are like when the people here draw."

Wu Hongyan murmured to herself, of course she knew that Li Ruoxuan, as an editor, could not show the author's original manuscript or storyboard to outsiders.

"If you are interested, you can check out the magazines we published."

Li Ruoxuan took out a magazine from her bag behind her. Compared to the small opening book in China, the comics here have a larger opening page, almost the size of a4 paper. Wu Hongyan looked at the covers in English and suddenly felt a wonderful feeling.

Several Chinese people discussed English comics at a cafe in England, and it seemed that something was wrong.

Wu Hongyan could tell that this was the second issue of the magazine.

When she opened the page, she saw several familiar names. It was obvious that these were the most popular works of "Monthly Boys Frontline", which even included "Music Girl", and it was directly a university chapter.

But the difference is that the whole magazine uses colored pages. When I read the colored university story of "Music Girl" for the first time, Wu Hongyan felt that it had a unique flavor. She turned it over and found that it was basically all British works, and only two short stories were created by Wei Guoren.

"People in Europe prefer to read online. Most of them had read pirated translations from the English-made group before. The company weighed it, so the progress of the comics started recently, and the previous content was posted on the official website to read for a fee."

Li Ruoxuan explained that the promotion of authenticization has always been a difficult problem. For readers who are used to watching pirated copies, it is not that easy to immediately ask them to pay for it. However, if tough measures like Tomato Video Network are taken, it is likely to be counterproductive and hinder the promotion of authenticization.

Therefore, the New Frontline Media is now advancing in two ways, first of all, the English culture of well-known comics, and secondly, the cultivation of local cartoonists. In fact, since Europeans and Americans prefer full-color comics, the comic style here is also different from that of China. If it is simply English, it will be difficult to develop continuously.

This is also the result of Li Ruoxuan's investigation after coming here.

“It feels more realistic.”

Lin Shuyi looked at the two short stories. The style was tough. Compared to the cute style, it was more like the realistic style of oil painting texture of "Blood Source: Curse". The plot was half a dozen, and it was normal for the short stories to be more exquisite.

Excellent color comics require a lot of energy to color. Generally, in China, only the first color page of each issue will be full-color, and you must notify one month in advance.

For example, the full-color comics in the overseas version of "Monthly Boys Frontline" were not actually painted by the author himself, but were colored in a more reliable outsourcing studio. After the original author himself specified the color, the studio painted it and then handed it back to the original author for confirmation, which is more like the creative method of coloring an animation.

This coloring speed is faster, but it is impossible to be as refined as the original work.

At the same time, colored comics can cover up the problem of painting to a certain extent. Lin Shuyi looked at these comics carefully and had more or less flaws in the shadows and lines, but the impact of color can make people ignore these problems when they first see the picture. In a sense, it is more suitable for novices to create.

Of course, in the hands of comics, the impact of color comics is definitely stronger, but it seems unrealistic to make these new comics who are just starting out draw that level.

"It's so hard, I still have to work so late."

Wu Hongyan looked through the comics and felt a little moved.

It is almost ten o'clock in the evening now, so it is normal to be a time to rest at home, but Li Ruoxuan still has to communicate with the author, which is really hard.

"Actually, I'm also very happy to see the slightly clumsy but persistent creators here. Although everyone's language is different, the heart of wanting to create interesting stories is the same."

Li Ruoxuan finished drinking the black tea in the cup.

"I have neither the talent to tell stories nor the talent to draw, but I like animation and comics very much, so I chose such a job. I just want to step closer to my dream. Now seeing these ignorant creators work so hard, I can't be lazy."

It was getting late, and the three of them chatted for a few more times. Li Ruoxuan drove the magazine car and sent the two back to the hotel.

At night, Lin Shuyi took a shower, wore pajamas, looked at Wu Hongyan, who was already exhausted and sleeping soundly on the bed, and smiled helplessly.

She came to the balcony and looked at the exotic city that was gradually falling asleep in the light, feeling the air that was different from China. Suddenly, a little inspiration burst out in her heart.

"In "Your Name", when Ye was exchanging his body on Long's body, did he look at the strange city like this?"

As a girl who grew up in a rural town, she has longing for big cities, will she feel similar when she comes to Ningjiang? Will she think of her hometown?

Many feelings emerged in my heart. Lin Shuyi took out her cell phone and kept recording her thoughts.

When the record was finished, she suddenly had some clarity and understood why Xu Rui asked herself to come to England. This was not only a skillful training, but also an understanding of her state of mind.
