Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

"...Are you going to attend the Itchy Rat Thief's book signing this weekend?"

Ke Xinjie's expectant voice came from the other side of the phone in Zhou Wenwei's hand.

Ever since Yang Shuzhun died in Hui Liyi at the end of the Black Moon Tide chapter of "Protoss", he has also liked to call him an old villain.

But many times in the comic circle, the term "old thief" is not simply a derogatory connotation...

Regardless of whether comic fans mainly hate cartoonists or like them, cartoonists who are generally not well-known are generally not qualified to receive the title "Old Thief".

For example, in Lin Qingshan's previous life, he was a cartoonist like Togashi, Kishimoto, Okamoto, Oda, and Kamoshi. It can be said that all of them are famous and popular.

And Gen Urobuchi, who is "affectionately" called "Oxu" by everyone, and Mari Okada, who is called "Oka's Mom", can actually be counted in this ranks.

In short, those who can be called "old thieves" are basically great cartoonists who are loved and hated.

Whether fans love it more or hate it more depends on the cartoonist's subsequent creations.

But at least now Yang Shuzhun is called an old thief, and everyone still likes him more than hates him.

Just like the situation in Lin Qingshan's previous life in the parallel world, with the third film Tide of the Black Moon as the watershed, everyone still loved his work very much in the early stage. They also loved the author, including the protagonist Shao Zai, and still had some expectations.

But later on, I began to feel disgusted with it. I felt sorry for its misfortune and felt angry about it. At the same time, I felt that its author was completely inappropriate!

In this parallel world, at least for now, Yang Shuzhun is still loved more than hated by comic fans.

"Protoss" has also been in the limelight recently. With "Purple Energy Coming from the East" already announced to be completed, there is no one strongest person on the Manga Weekly popularity list that can overtake other cartoonists.

During this period, "Protoss" was also competing closely with "True Dragon Chosen" for popularity. After all, "True Dragon Chosen", a super popular comic that has been serialized for nearly ten years, has only accumulated as much popularity as itself. If you don't seek death, you can't get anywhere low.

This is actually like what everyone jokingly calls entrepreneurship by the rich second generation. The rich second generation usually rests on the accumulated family wealth and rests on its laurels. No matter how much they squander, the family will not be ruined.

But what the rich generation fears most is that the rich second generation who do not have the ability to match their ambitions suddenly become ambitious and want to start a business.

At that time, all the family property accumulated by three generations will be lost in one generation.

Ku Xuan, the comic author of "True Dragon God's Choice", probably had this idea, which is why he kept repeating the routine of upgrading-defeating opponents-changing maps.

Although the popularity will not skyrocket in this way, such repeated routines are stable and will not cause sudden death!

Therefore, Ku Xuan, the manga author who created "The Dragon God's Choice", is probably going to take a rest and not plan to create explosive plot points that are beyond the expectations of comic fans to compete for the number one spot in popularity.

Therefore, as long as the plot of "Gods" continues to be as exciting as ever and continues to be serialized for several years or more, its popularity will gradually stabilize at the first place, becoming the third after "Purple Air from the East" and "The True Dragon God's Choice" This is... a super popular long migrant worker comic!

The premise is that the next plot of "Protoss" is as exciting as the previous second and third parts, or it maintains the quality of the first part, Dawn of Fire.

In any case, the future of "Protoss" is still promising.

At least comic fans such as Zhou Wenwei and Ke Xinjie still like this fantasy boy comic.

"I have nothing to do during the weekend, so I'll go with you."

Zhou Wenwei returned home, took off his shoes, and said to Ke Xinjie on the other side of the phone, "I just read the official website information. This time, a special extra chapter of "Protoss" will be released for the first time - "Wings of Mourning" No. 1 roll."

"Ah? Do you only know this now? I thought you already knew it."

Ke Xinjie smiled on the phone and said, "It is said to be the story of the principal and the pioneers of the Lion Heart Club when they were young. It is quite exciting."

"I have to buy a copy and read it."

Zhou Wenwei also said excitedly, "But I still hope that the bad guys in the main story can really stand up. I thought some bad guys in Odin's Abyss could really stand up, but I didn't expect it to be a bit disappointing."

During this period of time, in the comic series "Protoss", the protagonist Yang Mingfei appeared in Brazil and became a legend among his junior students. He looked like a majestic and omnipotent ace executive.

It was as if after his trip to the Japanese branch, he suddenly transformed into Senior Brother Chu and became the reliable Senior Brother Yang.

In fact, this is indeed the case. He appeared to scare off the high-risk hybrid "Dance King", ordered to rescue the endangered and dying junior students, chased the escaped "Dance King" alone, and finally successfully solved the target and completed the task perfectly.

At that time, everyone thought Yang Mingfei was so handsome!

Unexpectedly, Yang Mingfei suddenly withered later, because the roof could not bear the weight of the eliminated Dance King. After he fell down with the Dance King, he was crushed on top of him, still looking bad...

In fact, it's not bad here, but he still looks like a coward later on. Even after taking over the position of President of the Student Union of Caesar, he still looks like a coward.

Probably just like what Caesar's uncle Frost said about Caesar, he will always look like a child...

This makes people very unhappy.

The key is that although Xi Sa is called a child, he is really not a coward and is not weak.

Yang Mingfei, on the other hand, was as weak and cowardly as ever. After he realized that Senior Brother Chu had disappeared and he was suspected of being attacked by the principal, he still looked like this.

It makes people feel aggrieved and uncomfortable. How can people be so weak...

Forget about his weak points as an ordinary person in the front, and with the help of the little devil as a foreign aid later, and after experiencing so many things, and experiencing the experience of the Nibelungen Plan given up by Senior Brother Cesar and Chu, even if No matter how ordinary an ordinary person is, he can transform into a qualified warrior, right?

But Shao Zai's strength is qualified, but he is still so bad.

Perhaps he is just like what the little devil said to Herzog when he fought against him. He has a complete bloodline of God, but has a cowardly human heart inside.

Yang Mingfei was so cowardly, as if he had no intention of standing up at all. He was always so cowardly, which made people feel like their fists were hardened.

Maybe Yang Shuzhun thinks that this kind of person is the character of ordinary people, but to be honest... there are really very few people like this. There are really not many people who are so cowardly.

Zhou Wenwei sometimes feels that if the protagonist of "Protoss" is not Yang Mingfei, but becomes David, Agni, Denji or even Shinichi...

David estimated that after experiencing the death of his senior sister in the first part, he would not hesitate in the second part and choose to spend a quarter of his life to save Chu Zihan and directly kill Fenrir.

Needless to say, Agni can cut meat and feed it to an eagle. He probably would have saved people without hesitation in the first movie.

Denji... Because he had no emotions before, it is estimated that it will be after Hayakawa Akira's death in the third film that he will completely protect the remaining people he cares about at all costs.

But... Denji at least usually doesn't weaken, and when it's time to fight, he will definitely rush forward.

Shinichi may have to go through the life and death changes of the people he cares about before he can become brave, but no matter what, Zhou Wenwei feels that these protagonists will do better than Shai Zai after thinking about it.

"is a bit……"

Ke Xinjie also agreed with Zhou Wenwei's words and said, "I hope Yang Mingfei can grow up a little more in the future. It still takes time."

"He's already a senior..."

Zhou Wenwei immediately complained, "Do you still want to grow?"

This reminded him of the interns who came to the company before. At that time, the company asked the old man to take care of the interns, so Zhou Wenwei went to take one of the newcomers.

Because Zhou Wenwei saw that the other person was an intern, he patiently taught the work content in the first month, and even helped with some of the work that the interns were supposed to complete themselves.

The key is that there is not much work originally assigned to the interns, and they cannot be completed well.

But again, because he saw that the other person was an intern, he gave him some patience.

If you are not very capable, just be willing to learn, and you will be fine if you learn it.

But the next month, the intern was still like that.

Well, Zhou Wenwei still told himself to be patient.

By the third month of the internship, the intern was still unable to do anything, and he was asked to help clean up the mess.

It even felt like he didn't work seriously, as if he couldn't do his job well with his own abilities, so he had to ask Zhou Wenwei everywhere.

Although the intern certainly didn't mean to do it, but with such a colleague, who can be in a good mood?

Shao Zai is almost like this in Zhou Wenwei. He is born with insufficient abilities, and at the same time he has low self-esteem and is never willing to stand up, so he can only feel sorry for him and be angry at him.

Chu Zihan and Xi Sa became strong men from the sky in their freshman year, and became presidents in their sophomore year and became influential figures in the college.

As the protagonist, you don't want to compete with these two macho men, but with the help of the little devil, you can at least be more confident.

Anyway, Zhou Wenwei can't stand "Protoss" now, because he can't see the author's expectation for him to stand up in the protagonist. He would rather read comics in which a responsible character is the protagonist.

"yes……"

Ke Xinjie had to admit it and said, "Xinxin Yi is also an ordinary high school student, and he has experienced many things since he was an ordinary person... He looks very mature."

"The protagonists in Qingshan's paintings have always been very responsible, among other things."

Zhou Wenwei also expressed his deep approval and said, "Even if the protagonist of Qingshan's new work "Daogui" is mentally ill, he seems to be more responsible than Yang Mingfei."

In fact, it is not as simple as Brother Huozi to take a little responsibility.

If Brother Huo Zi replaces Shao Zai from "Protoss" as the protagonist, he will probably be able to destroy the world of "Protoss" directly.

After all, anyone who has watched "The Strange Fairy" knows that Brother Huo Zi really zooms in at critical moments. I will definitely not be vague with you. The main theme is "my life is burning infinitely".

"Oh, by the way, "Tao Weird Immortal" and "God Clan" were just updated."

Ke Xinjie suddenly remembered this and said to Zhou Wenwei, "I'm going to read the comics first, and I'll talk to you later."

"good."

Zhou Wenwei sat on the sofa, nodded and said.

The two hung up the phone.

However, when he looked at the screen interface of the phone to hang up the call, he showed a smile from the bottom of his heart.

It's great to meet a cute girl who has the same hobbies as me and can talk to me.

During this period, he is getting more and more addicted to getting along with Ke Xinjie.

Getting along with girls is still very beautiful...

And she is a girl who has the same hobbies and topics as me and is very comfortable to talk to.

"Okay, the comics are updated. Let's take a look at the development of the comic plot this week."

Zhou Wenwei stopped fantasizing and clicked on the comic world software on his mobile phone. During this period, he was used to reading comics with mobile software.

As for paper comic magazines... I am really not used to it. After all, it is expensive and inconvenient.

To read comics on a mobile phone, you can just search for related comics directly. It is not expensive to subscribe to one episode. It is not like before that you have to buy the whole magazine to read it, which costs dozens of yuan.

Some of the comic fans bought the magazine only for the latest series of a few comics, which feels a bit worthless.

However, in order to catch up with the latest series of their favorite comics, they can't wait until the single volume is released to read it, so they can only choose to buy magazines to catch up with the latest series.

But it’s different to read comics on your phone. You just need to subscribe to the comics you like. This gives you the right to choose, making comic fans feel more comfortable.

Zhou Wenwei clicked on "Dao Wei Yi Xian" first this time, and then saw the latest seventh episode marked with a small, blue "new" word on it.

He chose to subscribe without hesitation, and then he saw the title of this episode on the first page of the comic - "Three flowers gather at the top of the head to become a half-immortal."

"Become a half-immortal? Three flowers gather at the top of the head?"

Zhou Wenwei was stunned for a moment, muttering to himself, "Is it the protagonist's chance? Directly get the three flowers to gather at the top of the head to become an immortal? Is this the rhythm of the invincible flow at the beginning? There is a half-immortal cultivation from the beginning?"

With such doubts, he continued to slide the page to read.

After Li Huowang killed the vase girl out of anger, Dan Yangzi was not a fool, and he directly summoned all the disciples in the Taoist temple, including the "disciples" in the material room who were used as medicinal materials.

Danyangzi threw the body of the vase girl in front of everyone, and then angrily asked the people present who broke into his room and killed his "daughter".

Just by looking at the way he treated the vase girl, everyone felt that the vase girl was definitely not his daughter.

Danyangzi began to interrogate the disciples who could move freely in the Taoist temple one by one, until he asked Li Huowang, Li Huowang barely pretended to fool around.

It seemed that this bald Taoist priest did not have magical powers like his telepathy, so he could only ask one by one.

But at this time, he began to ask the "disciples" who were used as medicinal materials in the material room, and a disciple named Goudan suddenly stood up and accused Li Huowang of not appearing in the material room even once in the morning.

The situation took a sharp turn for the worse!

At this time, Li Huowang's situation suddenly became dangerous!
