Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

Chapter 363 The influence of movies

Yang Shuzhun has been in great glory during this period. After the Black Moon Tide part of "Protoss" was serialized, almost most comic fans were sad for Eli Yi.

At the same time, it also brought the popularity and reputation of "Protoss" to the top.

Even the period when "Purple Air Comes from the East" is nearing completion cannot completely suppress the popularity of "Protoss".

One can imagine how powerful "Protoss" is and how popular it is.

Because of this, Yang Shuzhun's popularity and reputation exploded. In a large comics forum, a new generation of popular cartoonists voted. His number of votes was almost the same as Lin Qingshan, and even more than a dozen votes more than Lin Qingshan.

This proves that in the eyes of current comic fans, Yang Shuzhun can be completely compared to Lin Qingshan with just one comic "Gods", and he even thinks he is stronger than Lin Qingshan.

After all, comics still have to rely on their strength to speak for themselves. Popularity and sales are the most important, and word-of-mouth can only be used as a secondary reference standard.

Otherwise, "Parasite" should be ranked first among the three major food series of Lin Qingshan's previous life.

In fact, the one whose reputation is not as good as that of "Parasite" will be the first.

There are even times when "Ghoul" can be ranked ahead of "Parasite".

"Gods" is already a phenomenal work with its current popularity and sales, so Lin Qingshan can't compare with it.

In particular, the comic strip currently being serialized by Lin Qingshan is "Parasite Beast". "Parasite Beast" currently has an excellent reputation, but its sales volume and popularity are far behind that of "Protoss".

And it’s not yet time for “Protoss” to lose its reputation.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that Yang Shuzhun is now overwhelming Lin Qingshan.

Yang Shuzhun recently took advantage of his last rest time to attend several autograph sessions. The enthusiasm of fans helped him regain his confidence.

In recent times, he has been constantly posting blog posts to communicate with comic fans on the bib platform.

"Thank you all, God Eggs. Today I will start painting "Protoss" again. I hope that we can join forces again and again to defeat the enemies in the future." Brigadier Yang Shu took a photo of his workbench and sent it to On the scarf.

Soon, fans of "Gods" who were paying attention to Yang Shuzhun's scarf immediately posted comments below to interact.

"Ah ah ah ah "Protoss" part 4, I'm going to die without "Protoss" in these two weeks."

"Looking forward to better "Protoss" and the next story!"

"Baizi rushes to the duck! Teacher Itchy Rat rushes to the duck!"

"Can you serialize two chapters a week? Teacher Itchy Rat! [expression_displeased]"

""Gods" will continue to soar to the sky!!!"

…

After seeing these fans' comments, Yang Shuzhun was very happy and laughed out loud.

Every time he sees comments from fans, he feels very satisfied.

I'm so... so happy, these fans are so nice.

Yang Shuzhun was in a very happy mood, but he did not start drawing the manuscript. Instead, he planned to read the previous blog posts and leave new comments.

But just then...

The bib platform suddenly pushed several new messages to him.

Yang Shuzhun saw it - "The film "Edge Walker" has been produced! It will be released soon!"

"Nolan, the director of "Edgewalker" announced that he plans to bring a group of leading actors Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Margot Robbie, and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson to the Republic to promote."

"The film adaptation of the original comic book "Edgewalker" took four years and cost $150 million to complete! It is ready to be released simultaneously in North America and the Republic!"

"Take you to re-read the original comic of "Edge Walker"! Analyze the meaning of the comic plot!"

…

When Yang Shuzhun saw this, his eyes under his glasses suddenly showed a hint of envy.

Lin Qingshan's comic works... have been adapted into movies?

What about him?

When will his works be noticed by others and put on the big screen, attracting the attention of thousands of people and being sought after by thousands of people...

…

After more than four years and nearly five years, the news that the film version of "Edgewalker" was completed instantly caused a sensation throughout the Republic.

After all, this is... a science fiction movie adapted from the original film "People of the Republic".

The people of the Republic have always been very united, and they will not hesitate to support any topic related to the Republic.

Some people even go so far as to blindly support it.

As soon as they heard that the original comic was created by a person from the Republic, everyone in the Republic immediately became excited.

Especially since it has been adapted into a blockbuster movie by an internationally renowned director. Doesn't this further prove that the works of the Republic have been recognized?

Now it is not just as simple as attracting the attention of the two-dimensional people who just like ACG, animation and comics.

Those who don’t pay attention to anime and comics, those ordinary passers-by who prefer to follow dramas and stars, all came to watch.

"Director Nuo's new movie! Big investment and big production! It will come to our place to promote it, wow! I'm really looking forward to it!"

""Edgewalker"? Wait, isn't this the name of an animation? I think I've seen it."

"Yes, but the original work of "Edgewalker" is actually a comic... and it is a comic created by the Republic."

"Wait a minute...the original one is from the Republic? Qingshan? Is he really from the Republic?"

"There are people who don't know Old Thief Qingshan. Let me tell you it's true. The movie "Edge Walker" is adapted from the original comic "Edge Walker" of the same name written by Old Thief Qingshan."

"I didn't expect that Edgewalker would have a movie, and it's directed by Director No, I'm really looking forward to it."

"Big production, big investment! Amazing, Qingshan Laozei has really made it, the comics have been adapted into movies!"

"By the way, what is the original work like? What type of work is it?"

"The original work is a science fiction comic, and the movie should also be a science fiction movie... Well, it's a very healing work."

"Wow, my David! My Lucy! My Rebecca!"

"Yes, it's so healing, I strongly recommend you to watch it."

"By the way, remember to go to Cyberpunk 2077 to see a doctor after watching it."

"There are cyberpunk psychopaths here, right? Why see a doctor? I'll call the Terrorist Squad directly!"

"Sure enough, there are cyberpunk psychopaths everywhere, and there are Terrorist Squads everywhere."

...

Comic fans who have seen Edgewalker immediately started to pull those who haven't seen Edgewalker into the pit online, so before the movie Edgewalker was released, Edgewalker became a little popular.

Lin Qingshan was looking at the series of tasks for "Edge Walker" on the system panel, and the progress bar began to rise.

"Edge Walker" has actually been completed for so many years, although it has increased a lot through animations and games.

But of course it has been stuck on the task of 100 million people.

Now it is rushing towards 100 million praises.

This made Lin Qingshan sigh that after all, the influence of movies is greater.

This is before the movie is released. If the movie is released, with the global release and subsequent online platform launch...

Maybe he can complete the final task that the system once said for the first time-500 million praises!

However... the system Lao Deng said that in the end he would use nine works to complete 500 million praises in a row to complete all the tasks.

Lin Qingshan thought about it and still felt that there was a long way to go.

In fact, at this point, it is not important for him to complete the subsequent system tasks.

Now his ability is enough, even if he does not draw comics next, it is enough for him to live freely in this world.

So...actually, he doesn't need to continue drawing comics.

After all, he himself is a person with few desires. He just wants to have a good life and good food, and his relatives and friends nearby live well.

And the system Lao Deng didn't force him to complete the task, otherwise there would be punishment.

But...

Lin Qingshan still plans to move towards the ultimate task as the system says.

Because he feels that if he can complete all the tasks of the system Lao Deng, the system Lao Deng will be free.

He doesn't know the origin of the system Lao Deng, but he always feels a little sad for it.

It is bound to him and doesn't seem to have any desires, just like him now.

The system Lao Deng has helped him so much along the way, as if there is only one goal, to let Lin Qingshan complete all the tasks, which is its wish.

In this case... Lin Qingshan feels that no matter what, he must work hard to help the system Lao Deng fulfill this wish!

And he himself also wants to share with the world those works he liked from his previous life, not just comics, but also those hidden in the works, the creator's own ideas and opinions.

Lin Qingshan likes these works very much, so he also wants to share them with strangers in this world.

And he can also make a lot of money, so drawing comics is not something he doesn't like.

...

"Qingshan? Why are you here?"

Gu Qianli looked at Lin Qingshan curiously and asked.

During this period of time, Lin Qingshan has been quite busy, because he has multiple jobs, not only drawing the final episode of "Parasyte", but also starting to draw the next new work "Dao Wei Yi Xian".

In addition, the two new shows of Trigger Animation, "Magic City Ghoul" and "Kill! Red Eyes", all require his help.

So it is certain that Lin Qingshan is busy.

Especially in Gu Qianli's eyes, she felt a little sorry for Lin Qingshan.

But in fact, Lin Qingshan is really okay, after all, he has the ability of [Speed Star (Diamond)] to increase the speed of drawing.

And he also invited external aid-intelligent AI Nuwa.

Even later, because "Dao Wei Yi Xian" was a novel rather than a comic in the previous life, he couldn't copy it directly when drawing "Dao Wei Yi Xian" like he did when drawing comics before.

Instead, he needed to think by himself, to conceive the storyboards, plot scenes, etc., and the style of "Dao Wei Yi Xian" was similar to the Chinese painting style of "Wu Shan Wu Xing", so he still had to spend a lot of time.

So he invited another foreign aid - Qian Si Hu, who has now become a digital life.

This can be regarded as hiring Qian Si Hu, and paying Qian Si Hu a lot of money.

Two foreign aids, plus he already had two assistants, Wu Shiqing and Chen Chunqiang.

Wu Shiqing and Chen Chunqiang could not help much in the draft work of "Dao Wei Yi Xian". They were in the learning stage, and they probably felt a little embarrassed.

Therefore, he worked harder at Trigger Animation.

Of course, he didn't need to be so busy.

So although Lin Qingshan was busy at this time, he was not as busy as Gu Qianli imagined.

"Hehe, I came here to ask you..."

Lin Qingshan took out a movie ticket from behind and said, "Do you want to go to the movies together?"

"Watch a movie together?"

Gu Qianli blinked and said curiously.

In fact... before, before Station C was established, she often went to Lin Qingshan to watch movies in college.

In the past two years, the two of them have basically not gone to the movies.

After all, everyone is busy...

Gu Qianli remembered that the last time he watched a movie was half a year ago, when a very good movie was released.

Lin Qingshan asked her if she had time to watch a movie together, so she went to watch a movie with Lin Qingshan.

In fact, the most important thing was that Gu Qianli became busy.

Lin Qingshan often goes to the cinema to watch movies. He likes the atmosphere of the cinema very much.

But again, he didn't like that he would cause trouble to others.

Gu Qianli was too busy at Station C these days, and he was also very busy before because of his graduation defense.

Therefore, Lin Qingshan rarely invited Gu Qianli to watch movies.

Mainly... I don't want to embarrass Gu Qianli.

Who knows, if he invites Gu Qianli, unless the work is very important, Gu Qianli will agree to him.

Because... this is Lin Qingshan's invitation.

"Yeah, movie tickets to the preview screening of "Edgewalker."

Lin Qingshan chuckled and said, "It's very rare. I just want to invite you to go and see it with everyone."

Last time, he just tried to ask Ayumi Ito to ask the film producer for three tickets to the preview screening of the "Edgewalker" movie. Unexpectedly, the other party gave six tickets at once.

This made him sigh, how generous he was...

But he is the original author after all, and the film producers will definitely not be stingy.

But he didn't even think of this.

Lin Qingshan immediately gave one movie ticket to each of his three assistants, Wu Shiqing, Chen Chunqiang and Akumi Yuta, in addition to Ayumi Ito and Gu Qianli, whom he originally wanted to give.

All given by my own hands.

No, Lin Qingshan came to see Gu Qianli personally just for this matter.

"With everyone?"

Gu Qianli suddenly felt a little unspeakably disappointed, but she quickly smiled and said, "Okay, when will the preview be held?"

She actually thought she and Lin Qingshan were going to see it.

only……

"In five days, let's go together then!"

Lin Qingshan handed the ticket to Gu Qianli and said with satisfaction.

"Five days later...that's no problem."

Gu Qianli took the preview screening ticket from Lin Qingshan's hand and said with a smile.

"Then it's agreed."

Lin Qingshan gave a thumbs up and said with satisfaction.
