Chapter 691: Poster
Meng Huo walked into the study and breathed a sigh of relief.
“It’s really uneasy…”
He shook his head, then sat down at the drawing table, picked out the brushes he needed from the pen box, and thought about how to make posters for tomorrow's new comics, and more than one. However, posters are more troublesome than comics, and it takes a long time to rely on strokes.
“Is it better to draw with a computer?”
Meng Huo considered a more efficient method. His study room has complete facilities and pursued the speed of using a computer. The computer's processing speed is far greater than that of using a pen, especially the process of later coloring. The pen is used little by little, while the computer just covers it directly, and can correct any errors at any time.
After thinking about it, Meng Huo put the brush back and found the digital tablet...
After sitting in the living room with Alice and Shen Jie for more than ten minutes, Alice got up first: "I'll wash the dishes!"
"I'll help too." Chen Jie stood up. Meng Huo was working, and they didn't watch TV. So they washed the dishes early and left.
The two women washed the dishes and cleaned them up, then walked to the door of the study and knocked on the door: "Menghuo, are we leaving?"
"Wait..." The study room was not completely closed, and Meng Huo's figure came from the crack of the door: "You guys come in first."
Alice and Shen Jie walked over curiously. When they saw Meng Huo painting, they walked behind him curiously and looked at the computer screen. On the computer screen, a huge black and white comic was quickly taking shape under Meng Huo's hands.
""Chess Soul"?" Alice saw the name on the poster and her eyes widened: "Is this the name of the new comic?"
"Um."
Meng Huo nodded, "The Soul of Chess". He was going to draw this work. Speaking of Go, the first work he could think of was "The Soul of Chess". It can even be said that this is the only work. Among all Go comics, there is no more successful comic than "The Soul of Chess".
"Soul of Chess" is not only a success, but also a sensational success. It set off a huge wave of "Soul of Chess" in Japan and even Southeast Asia in its previous life. In commercial terms, the popularity of "Soul of Chess" comic series has always been high, and single-line books are also sold wildly.
As soon as the cartoon was broadcast, the ratings rose all the way, and even the TV series starring some popular idols could not match. In addition to comics and animations, "Chess Soul" also launched games one after another, as well as character books, CD radio dramas, music CDs, and a large number of peripherals, which were all very popular.
Use an example to illustrate its status: if the king of basketball comics is "Slam Dunk", there are also works such as "Blackball of Blackball" and "Fate Strong Hand" that can be provoked. But if "Chess Soul" is the king of Go comics, it is a big problem to find works that are enough to provoke it.
It can even be said that "Chess Soul" represents the Go comic itself. If Meng Huo wants to draw Go, there is no other alternative to choose from. He must draw "Chess Soul" and integrate into this world. His drawing was very successful.
"The Soul of Chess. It doesn't look like an ordinary Go comic." Alice stared at the poster, thinking that the poster was quite wonderful: "Is this the same as Inuyasha? A comic that travels through time themes?"
Chen Jie was also curious: "This poster is very curious."
The poster that Meng Huo is drawing has not been colored yet, but the scene has been outlined. The content of the poster is above the cloud, a boy and a man playing chess, but strangely, the two are dressed in a completely opposite way.
The boy was about thirteen or fourteen years old, dressed in an ordinary manner, dressed like a child everywhere on the street. He frowned and looked at the chessboard, obviously thinking deeply about how to play chess. The man sitting opposite him had long hair, dressed in ancient costume, holding a fan in his hand, looking at the boy with gentle eyes like an elder.
The completely different dresses of modern and ancient times are in the same painting, which are clearly a very strange scene. However, in Meng Huo's writing, this poster exudes extraordinary charm, which looks both warm and a little sad.
What kind of comic is this?
After seeing the poster, Alice and Shen Jie couldn't help but be curious. Especially Alice, the moment she saw this painting, she remembered "Inuyasha". "Inuyasha" is a story of modern girls traveling to ancient times, and it is also an intertwined two kinds of history.
The two people's outfits on the poster made Alice think that this should be a time travel comic about a boy traveling through time and space to return to ancient times and then learning Go. However, Meng Huo mercilessly denied her conjecture.
"No, this is not a time travel comic." He said, "This is a modern comic."
"Then this poster..."
Alice looked puzzled.
"I will announce the content of this poster tomorrow, don't worry." Meng Huo did not stop the painting in his hand, staring at the computer. He seemed to be able to use it with all his heart, and said, "Time is very fast. I asked you to come in because I wanted to ask Alice, you can do something for a favor."
They were leaving the apartment, and Meng Huo only needed Alice to help, but he was worried that Shen Jie would misunderstand, so he called both of them in.
“Print, right?”
Alice looked at the study room and immediately understood what Meng Huo wanted her to help.
"Yes, my printer here can't print such a big poster." Meng Huo nodded. He made pictures on the computer, but the poster had to be printed. The printer in his study could only print ordinary comics. The poster was too big and he had to use professional equipment from Phoenix Company.
Meng Huo wanted to ask Alice to prepare these posters before the release of tomorrow's comics. He would complete them tonight and send them to Alice, asking Alice to arrange someone to help tomorrow. Meng Huo would have a meeting tomorrow before the press conference. He couldn't take time to do these things, and it was not unrelated to the meeting with the posters.
"This is simple." Alice agreed immediately. This matter was very simple for her. The voice actors often had to print promotional posters and had complete equipment. She could help her at work tomorrow.
"Is there anything else?"
"It's gone."
"Then you can draw with peace of mind, we'll leave first."
"good."
Alice didn't want to interfere with Meng Huo's paintings. After agreeing to help, she left Meng Huo's apartment with Shen Jie.
The second day of the carnival ended like this. Meng Huo painted it until one o'clock in the morning, with five or six posters. Then after dawn, when he got up from bed, he saw Alice's text message on his phone.
"I have received all the posters, I have sent someone to print them, and... I have turned one of them into a gift and increased the number of prints. You can give them to readers at that time." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
