Chapter 8 The most valuable comic book newcomer award
At this time, An Yi remembered that her elder brother had shown extraordinary potential in science since he was a child, especially mathematics. If it weren't for his too biased subject, he wouldn't have only been admitted to the ordinary school. He is from the computer department and has great programming!
"The game also requires money to develop. Otherwise, if you develop a good game and sell it to a big company, it will be just a wedding dress for others, so I'd better wait for me to earn a royalty first..." An Yi thought this way, and then casually told her brother about the general idea of the game "Legend of Blood". But she remembered how popular this game was after it came out. Shandake started with "Legend".
After An Li heard his sister’s idea about this game, his eyes also shone. His intuition told him that as long as he created this online game that has never appeared on the market to upgrade monsters and upgrade with passionate pk as a selling point, it will definitely be popular!
But the most critical issue now is that their startup capital is insufficient...
But in front of An Li, An Yi took out a comic magazine "The Kingdom of Martial Arts" and pointed to a place above, saying to her brother: "Did you see this newcomer award called "The Rising Show"? As long as I get the 'gold award' of this newcomer award, I can get a 100,000 yuan bonus, and then I can be qualified to conduct a weekly serialization directly on "The Kingdom of Martial Arts". The newcomer cartoonist's manuscript fee is 300 yuan per picture, and the manuscript fee is about 20 manuscripts a week, which is 6,000 yuan, and the monthly income is 24,000 yuan. This is just the serialized manuscript fee income, and the single-line sales revenue has not been included!"
An Li was stunned by his sister's statement. He also knew that as a cultural power with an extremely developed comic industry, Greater China has readers all over the world. Top cartoonists not only have amazing incomes, but also have a very high social status. But he did not expect that even new cartoonists could have such a high income!
However, An Li obviously did not understand how valuable the "Upstar" Newcomer Award held by "The Kingdom of War" magazine is. It is only held twice a year, once in the first half of the year and once in the second half of the year. The deadline for the first half of the year is in early March, which is exactly the date when An Yi's winter vacation ends, and the second half of the year is in early September.
Every year, countless people who dream of becoming a cartoonist contribute to this "rise" newcomer award. Few people can win unique "gold awards". Often bye bye, they can get a "silver award" and get a 50,000 prize. They are already recognized as strong newcomer comics.
The prize of the "Bronze Award" is only 20,000, but it is difficult to get it. The number of winners of the "Backpot" newcomer awards in each time is no more than five!
In addition to the bonus, there are also trophys for "ups" (only gold medals will have trophys), certificates of awards, and a "commemorative dagger". If you want to change jobs, take out the certificates, and other comic magazines will never reject such a comic author who has proved his strength!
This is the value of "The Kingdom of Martial Arts" as the best-selling comic magazine in China!
What's even more cruel is that there are many cartoonists who already have serialization skills who are unwilling to accept that they may have only won the bronze award of "Raise Show" when they debuted, and then they will open a new vest and contribute to the "Raise Show" Newcomer Award again. However, the magazine "Warring Kingdom" turned a blind eye to this kind of thing. Anyway, if you want to win the "Raise Show" Newcomer Award, you have to rely on your true strength!
To sum up, although this "updated show" newcomer award is known as a "newcomer award", it is actually the grave of the newcomer!
The only expectation of many pure newcomer comic authors is that even if they do not win the award, the editors who have been reviewed for their works have attracted the potential for development, and then guide, support, and contribute to the award that is truly prepared for pure newcomers - the monthly award. This award will be once a month. You can imagine how beautiful it is compared to the "updated show" newcomer award...
After winning the monthly award, you can be eligible to publish short comics in the supplementary "Wuzhi Village" of "Wuzhi Kingdom". If readers give back the survey, they can try the serialization. Only after they have truly proved that they have created popular serialization works can they be eligible to publish on "Wuzhi Kingdom"!
Therefore, except for real geniuses, most new cartoonists have been honed step by step. How could a pure new cartoonist easily serialize the weekly magazine in "The Kingdom of War"?
Regarding this "update" newcomer award, there is actually another daunting "curse", that is, "golden award is inauspicious". Because the subsequent development of its gold award winners is very bumpy, far less promising than the "silver award" and "bronze award" winners. Some people think that this is because the author who won the gold award has too high artistic pursuits and is not able to adapt to the requirements of commercial comics.
But An Yi left for the gold medal. The reason is simple and realistic, that is, it has the highest prize, and as long as you win the gold medal, you can directly serialize it on "Wu Zhiguo". The original manuscript fee is 300 yuan per piece, while the winner of the "Silver Award" and "Bronze Award" can only serialize it in the supplementary "Wu Zhiguo", and the original manuscript fee is only 200 yuan per piece...
The purpose of An Yi painting comics is also very clear, which is to make money. After making money, it doesn’t matter if you draw some comics with high style or brains.
Anli expressed unreserved support for his sister's idea of making money by drawing comics. He had only one attitude towards his sister - just be happy.
In fact, his mind is now filled with the idea of "Legend of Blood". He wants to make this game perfectly so that his sister can play happily!
He is a person who is not good at speaking, but he can use his actions to prove his care and love for his sister.
Since An Yi aims at the "Upstart" Newcomer Award, of course she will take action!
First, let’s take a look at the submission requirements for this "Up to Come" comic newcomer award. The number of submissions is 31p, the original paper is vertically 330~365mm, horizontally 230~260mm, standard outer frame is vertically 270mm, horizontally 180mm.
The subject requirements are actually "no subject matter", but given that this is the newcomer award held by the Comic Magazine "Warring Kingdom" and the judges are the editor-in-chief of the four groups of the magazine, as well as all the popular cartoonists who have serialized "Warring Kingdom", so the best theme is naturally - martial arts!
