Trivial matters at home were disturbing, An Yinong didn't think of caring about "Painting Friends" at all, he was like a numb contributor tool, except for posting manuscripts and receiving manuscript fees, he was invisible at other times.

So much so that those who didn’t read comics in the last class knew the main characters in "The Legend of the Desert Heroes". Only then did An Yinong know that the newly revised "Painting Friends" comic magazine became popular, and the serialized "The Legend of the Desert Heroes" It's even hotter.

The new president sent him a report, showing the increase in sales of the magazine in the past two months. He said that as long as the plot after "The Desert" does not stretch his hips, it is expected to become this year's "top ten best-selling comics", or even " Yinong' can also become this year's 'Top Ten Best-selling Cartoonists'.

It was the first time An Yinong knew that there was such a ranking list in the comics industry.

Zhen Weilong, who left "Painting Friends" and switched to "Xia Dao", was last year's "Top Ten Best-selling Cartoonists", and his comics were also on the list, ranking ninth.

It is because he is on this ranking that "Xia Dao" spends a lot of money to recruit him.

"If 'Yinong' and "The Desert" are also on this list, will our "Painting Friends" get more resources?"

"Of course, there are benefits. I must take care of the people and comics on the rankings first. As long as the magazine has one character on this list, it can be regarded as a famous magazine. If it has two characters, it will be even more serious." said the president.

An Yinong was thoughtful.

"Is this cartoon very popular?" He asked the students in the class.

"It's super hot, don't you know Tiantong?"

"I don't know, there are a lot of things at home recently." He said honestly.

"Then you are really out of date, come and let me tell you, this is a very popular comic recently, even my sister who never reads comics knows it."

As a fan of martial arts comics, Zhang Wei appeared with "Painting Friends" and dangled an exquisite acrylic key pendant in his hand: "This magazine also gives this, isn't it good? Last time it was a small mirror, which was snatched by my sister." Let's go, but she is not interested in this thing, so she gave it to me."

"Awei, you still want to listen to your sister? Are you so good?" Everyone laughed at him.

"I can't help it, she's a creditor. I don't have the money to ask her to borrow money to buy it." Zhang Wei put the pendant on An Yinong's desk as if offering a treasure.

"What is this?" An Yinong lifted up the transparent acrylic ball, and found that it was made of several components.

"Don't you know? This is a Luban lock. You must use a very special method to disassemble it, and the composition is the same. But it took me a while to assemble it."

The complacent Zhang Wei selectively ignored the fact that there was an instruction manual in the package.

An Yinong picked up the new version of "Painting Friends". The entire cover was a beautiful anime character with sharp eyes and phoenix eyebrows. He recognized him as a very popular supporting role in his comics.

The name and date were in the upper left corner, and he looked at it. It was the latest one.After the revision, "Painting Friends" became a weekly manga magazine, with one published per week.

"Eh? "Painting Friends" seems to be a little-known magazine, and a cartoonist stationed there was poached by other magazines." An Yinong pretended not to understand.

"That was a long time ago. Their new comics are really good. If they don't look good, hit me." Zhang Wei snatched the magazine a little unhappy, and quickly flipped to the back, "Look."

What appeared in front of him was a bird's-eye view of "Devil City" from the sky. After the magazine was opened, the two pages combined into a whole bird's-eye view, which was quite visually impactful.

"Wow." Even girls who are not very interested in comics are attracted, "It's magnificent, this is the top view. The one on the horse seems to be a girl? Is it a heroine?"

"It's the heroine. She has a nickname, Zhuge Nv Yu Linglong. It means that she is very smart and has an exquisite heart, so many people will come to her when they encounter puzzles that cannot be solved." Another boy continued. By the way, it seems that this person is also a book fan.

The female students gathered around. In general male manga, there is no such thing as a girl, or it is a vase with no role, and a female character with a role suddenly appears. Everyone is very interested.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Wei took out several copies of "Painting Friends" from his desk: "I have all of them, do you want to read them?"

Everyone naturally said they wanted it, and they gathered together to open it.The classic protagonist starts with dead parents and hurt relatives and friends. In order to find the only relative, the protagonist embarks on a vast road of searching.

He chased all the way to the northwest, but found that the ghost city he was looking for was hidden in the desert, and the businessman who was best at walking in the desert didn't know the exact location.

At this time, A Xiang, the charming tavern proprietress in the desert, told him that there might be someone who could help him.

Afterwards, the heroine came out and just solved the mystery of the former dynasty's treasure. Because the men's clothes were too handsome, she provoked a heroine, and she was being chased by the "rival in love" thousands of miles away.

"This manga is so interesting." The female students gathered together to read it with gusto. They were not interested in manga at all before.

Compared with other martial arts comics, this book has a more refined portrayal of the characters, the men are heroic, the women are feminine, and the weapons and accessories on their bodies are also very attractive.

Although many immature places can still be seen, both the story and the picture have great potential.

Before he knew it, An Yinong had already finished reading the first four books and picked up the fifth one.

Zhang Wei looked at them intently, and smiled: "How is it? Isn't it pretty?"

"It's okay. The style of painting in the early stage is not stable, but it's okay in the future." An Yinong said truthfully, it was his first time drawing manga, and the traces of the line drawing in the first chapter were still heavy, and the characters were not particularly stable. But then it was fixed.

"The latter is very good! The scene of the six heroes picking up thousands of horse thieves!" Because of some fan attributes, Zhang Wei directly filtered the first half of the sentence, and only heard the second half of the sentence, and he started the bragging mode again.

An Yinong: ... I feel a little ashamed.

"Zhang Wei, where did you buy it? I want to buy a copy too." A girl asked.

"Me too, can this magazine be subscribed for a whole year?"

"It's easy to buy, it's available in newsstands and bookstores." Zhang Wei said, "But this magazine is very popular, so you have to go there early, or it will be sold out."

Seeing how they liked it, An Yinong suddenly thought, "The Desert" seems to be able to attract female readers.If he can bring more girls into the pit of comics, will he have an audience base if he wants to draw female-themed comics?

To be honest, he wanted to go up to see the scenery from a high place for the top ten best-selling comics and top ten best-selling cartoonists in that year's summary.But "Great Desert" was released too late, and whether it can be published, the success rate is between five and five.So now that martial arts comics are becoming saturated, if you take a slant and draw female-themed comics, maybe you can make a dash.

Anyway, summer vacation is coming soon, he has a lot of time, An Yinong thought to himself.

"Host, you want to create another manga with a completely different style at the same time? Why? Can't you finish the story of the first book first?" The system doesn't quite understand why he wants to make his life more difficult.

It has never understood its host, although it has followed him for several worlds.

"If I can do it, why not try?" An Yinong asked back.

"My manga is successful, and I just have to keep going, but I want to try another route. If I get away with it, maybe I'm the one who opens a new door. ——H"

"Do whatever you want. -X"

The system looked at the smiling host, and then at the small note: "Hmph, it looks like the kind of villain who likes to lie to people with sweet words."

An Yinong really tried to paint female subjects—themes of time travel and adventure.

In life, she is a tenacious little girl and the sole heir of the dilapidated martial arts gym, but because of a certain opportunity—the family jade pendant was broken, and she signed a contract with the nine-tailed fox demon spirit who resided in the jade, awakening the mysterious power .

Her talent is to communicate with demon spirits, sign contracts with them, and temporarily borrow the power of demon spirits during battles.A person like her is the "spirit master" among the "psychics".

These "demon spirits" of An Yinong are inspired by the "Shan Hai Jing", so the nine-tailed fox is set to be an ancient auspicious beast, the mother clan of the emperor (emperor).

There will be many 'demon spirits' from Shan Hai Jing in the future.

When borrowing the power of different demon spirits, the protagonist will have completely different disguises, men's and women's clothes, western and Chinese clothes, there are only unexpected ones, and there is nothing he dare not draw.

"I'm the one who cleared the dress-up game." An Yinong said to himself.

The protagonist is not the "silly, white and sweet" heroine preferred by male aesthetics. On the contrary, the heroine lives at the bottom and has experienced many things, but she still remains optimistic, brave, kind, and full of hope for the future.And her original wish was to revive the martial arts gym and become the master of family martial arts.

It is precisely because she is such a person that she can impress those demon spirits who can see through people's hearts, become friends with them, and achieve mutual success.

Because the main consumer groups of comics are teenagers, they will definitely not talk about too many serious social topics, and there is even a romantic love and brilliant friendship belonging to the protagonist.

Among her friends are high-cold young 'qin teacher' girls and shy young 'poet apprentices'.The former uses sound as its strength, the latter uses poetry as its strength.

And her enemies are monsters derived from excessive human desires, as well as "psychics" polluted by monsters.

Of course, the main thing is the plot.

It looks like an upgraded comic about adventure in another world and saving the world, but the core is the growth history of a protagonist.It is the process in which the protagonist has friendship and love, and sees the world more maturely.

"There are world changes that break the daily routine, there are adventures, there are upgrades for fighting monsters, there are all kinds of cute monsters, and there are cross-dressing... The overall style is relaxed."

It may seem nothing special in the eyes of later generations, but the local comics of this era do not have so many attractive elements.

The cross-dressing element can attract many people, and those clothes that could not appear in the past can appear in this fantasy world.In addition, the accompanying demon spirit is also a highlight. A "spirit-controlling girl" without a "little demon spirit" is not a qualified "manga girl".

"These two elements are a point of increasing attractiveness." In fact, boys also like cross-dressing and cute pets, but they are embarrassed to say so.

The system looked at An Yinong who split himself into two, one painting "The Legend of the Desert Heroes" and the other "The Girl of the Imperial Spirit", and held his face in both hands: "Don't you feel that your personality is split?"

One is the classic martial arts manga painting style, which is neat and unrestrained, and the background is ancient, which has the feeling of landscape painting.One is the classic drawing style of girls' comics, with gorgeous hairstyles and costumes, and there are fighting scenes, but it is more 'fantasy'. The background is magical and modern, full of fantasy, so you really don't feel split personality?

A new girl manga is being created, and "Desert Heroes: Devil City" will continue to be serialized, and the villain who is both good and evil and full of personality is coming.

His charm is second only to the protagonist group, and another popular character - the tavern proprietress Ah Xiang.

At this time, the "Painting Friends" comic magazine, backed by the He family, has appeared in 90.00% of newsstands and bookstores in Hong Kong.

The adjusted price and the gifts that came with the book attracted many people, and some even bought magazines for those delicate little gifts.

The magazine has already been bought, so of course I just took a look at it, so many people fell into the trap of "Painting Friends".And many people who entered the pit of "Painting Friends" became fans of "The Legend of the Desert Heroes".

The length of "The Legend of the Desert Heroes: Devil City" is not long, and the plot soon reaches the last chapter, which is also the "final battle" in the entire plot.

This Friday, after dinner, he returned to his room, took out the comics that had been drawn to the final battle, and prepared to start writing, but when he picked up the pen, he couldn't put it down.

This state of his even affected the shadow puppet who painted "The Girl of the Spirit".

The handsome and unrestrained fighting in martial arts comics is a great attraction.If the final battle fails to make a breakthrough and leave a deep impression on people, this newcomer comic will inevitably be suspected of being anticlimactic.

An Yinong has studied fighting and has a certain understanding of many schools of martial arts, but how to draw the counter moves beautifully in the final battle is still a big problem for him.

He gestured there with a pen, rehearsing the process of fighting in his mind.

"No, it doesn't feel like this. By the way, isn't there a practice room on the first floor? I think there are cold weapons there."

With the popularity of martial arts movies nowadays, all kinds of martial arts gyms and martial arts training are also popular. Many people will follow suit and build such a room at home. An Yinong guessed that the practice room is the same.

He ran downstairs and walked into the practice room.

The practice room is small, more decorative than practical, with white walls on all sides and a soft plastic floor.There is also a shelf for cold weapons on one side, and most cold weapons can be found on it.

He touched the handsome Miao Dao, and then looked at the sword on the shelf. On the white wall behind him, there was a huge character 'Wu' written in black ink. He looked carefully, and it was painted.

That's right, such a big character can be written with such momentum, and the strokes are as sharp as a sword. It must be a calligrapher who understands martial arts.

"It's too small here, why don't you move the weapons to the yard?" he thought.

At the same time, the neighbor next door made many detours, lost his tail, and finally entered the community alone.

He was supposed to go straight back to his home, and when he reached the fork in the road, he made a strange turn and walked towards a small path that he didn't usually walk.

He saw the boy walking along this road, stepping on roller skates like flying, the birds followed to the left and right, and the trees on both sides bowed their heads in the breeze, as if welcoming their little master.

An ordinary small road, which he would never have looked at once he walked by it in the past, turned into a "fairy tale" that he longed for since he was a child but could never dream of it that day.

The wind blew off a leaf, and there was a buzzing sound in the air, which was the vibration caused by a sharp weapon piercing through the air.

"Strange, why is there a sound of sword dancing nearby?" The voice was fast and soft, and it was very clear in the silent evening.The man was suddenly worried, and he walked quickly towards the children's house.

As a result, the sound of the sword beating became more and more clear, as if it was coming from behind the wall.

He looked towards the door.

The gate was not completely closed, and in the narrow gap, it seemed that a person holding a silver frost sword made quick stabs, chops, blocks, etc., because the movements were too fast, the blade trembled slightly and made a pleasant buzzing sound.

It was a young man, his body was as light as a swallow, his sword was as bright as a rainbow, and when the sword struck down, it seemed like a majestic mountain.

The neighbor was a little surprised, but he took another step closer without realizing it, so that he made a noise.The sword practitioner inside turned around and stabbed with his sword, the tip of the sword was shining with a clear light, and barely stopped in front of the door.

The young man with the sword had clear eyebrows and a charming appearance, as if he had traveled through time to come to him.

"gentlemen?"
