Chapter 693 :Disappointed
The meeting at the Phoenix Pavilion is being broadcast on the forum.
The video page that suddenly appeared on the homepage also surprised the members of the forum, but after seeing the content, everyone became excited. If you didn’t go to the carnival, you could know the news of He Xi’s new work for the first time. Make fans happy.
After the news spread, many people came to the forum to watch it the first time.
The two principals of Phoenix Company, one old and one young, have already addressed the closing ceremony on stage and announced the first content of the opening ceremony-He Xixin comics, which made a lot of noise a while ago, have determined the final theme.
“Sure enough, it’s a new comic!”
Whether it is the hall or the outside world, everyone has their eyes wide open, waiting for Meng Huo to personally reveal the true face of the new work.
After the opening ceremony, Xu Jing sat down in the chair and handed the stage to Meng Huo alone.
However, before Meng Huo was revealed, an accident happened. Among the posters that were brought to the stage, the black cloth with a poster drawing board seemed to deviate from the center of gravity when it moved, and suddenly slipped down when Meng Huo approached, letting it inside. The poster showed up.
“…”
The sudden change left the audience in the hall and the fans in front of the computer stunned.
The audience was silent for two seconds, and then immediately, the audience in the front row stood up and looked at the poster, while the cameras of the reporters also pointed at the drawing board.
Xu Jing, who was sitting on the stage, was stunned, and then laughed loudly: “It seems that you don’t need to talk about it.”
Meng Huo looked at the exposed poster helplessly. The content of the poster was based on a Go game with a few cartoon characters standing in front of him, even if he didn’t know who these people were. But the background can tell the subject of the new comic.
“Go? God, this is Go, right?”
“I must be dazzled, teacher He Xi actually wants to draw Go comics!?”
“How could it be Go? This is too difficult, how to draw it!”
There was a commotion inside and outside the hall. The subject matter is so unexpected that many fans seem restless and excited. For some people who originally competed for the new comics, this is an answer that no one can imagine.
“Go!? Not a sport? It turned out to be a chess cartoon!?”
Many people in the sports world are eye-catching. Although He Xi mentioned the category of chess and cards in the previous scope, most people still believe that he will definitely choose sports. The readership of sports comics is much larger than that of chess and cards. , And the competition in sports is fierce. Can better stimulate readers’ desire to read.
“Impossible! Why would he choose chess and cards? Where is this kind of thing that can’t be boarded in the lobby?”
Liu Yurong seemed quite puzzled. Like many other people in the sports world, he despised chess and cards from the bottom of his heart. In modern times, chess and cards have become completely entertaining games, and it is difficult to be elegant. Drawing chess and card cartoons is easy to make people look down on the identity of a cartoonist.
Of course, chess is an exception. As for Go… this Liu Yurong doesn’t understand it, but it seems to be different from those popular modern board games on the market. It is something with historical origins. He Xi draws Go comics to ensure a high style. .
“But it’s still gentle…”
Liu Yurong furrowed his brows tightly, even if he was able to board the Daya Hall, but such slick things were placed on the comics. Is it still attractive? Before that, he seemed to have never seen a piece of Go-whether it was a novel or a TV series, or even a TV show.
Go. In his memory, it was something that only existed in ancient times. Is this thing comparable to sports?
“It’s a nonsense!” Liu Yurong thought so. He didn’t know that the president of the Basketball Association also received the news at a table in Yanjing. The president’s face was green and he also cursed: “What a shame. It’s really inexplicable!”
The president of the Football Association sat beside him. Sneered: “You dumbfounded, right? I said you made a big fuss, Go Comics…can make this choice. I think that cartoonist is not a good person!”
“You still want to give him 400 million and replace it with me. I won’t pay four dollars!”
The reason why these three big figures in the sports world are so disfavored is because they don’t think Go can draw good-looking cartoons-not only them, but even people in the chess and card world have the same view.
On the He Xizhijia forum, a member who was certified as a famous Chinese chess player posted angrily.
“Go? Why is Go? What a disappointment the teacher’s choice is, what can be drawn in Go? How many people can understand the black and white competition and square layout? It is not as simple and exciting as chess! ”
This is the reason why Liu Yurong and the others are not optimistic, and it is also something that shocks many fans. The game of chess and cards is generally simple and clear, like chess: each piece has a different meaning, and the game can be clearly understood. This Is a very critical thing.
Not only chess, military chess, poker, mahjong, and even other chess and card games must surpass Go in terms of easy-to-understand and expressiveness of the game situation. The Go board is a grid with no words, and the chess pieces are black and white. The readers simply cannot see the whole picture.
In fact, the rules of Go are very simple, but it is difficult to understand and play chess. The board of Go is very large. People who have a certain understanding of Go but do not know much about Go can actually only see the simplest scenes, but the real game situation. But I can’t understand it—unlike chess, the situation is clear at a glance.
In this world, very few readers know about Go. In addition to the high requirements for viewing Go, the two add up. The audience of Go comics is really a niche among the niche. Many people are seeing posters. In an instant, I knew that this was the smallest comic theme He Xi had drawn since his debut.
“Teacher He Xi is so bold!”
“It’s a pity that I can’t understand Go…”
“Why do you want to draw such a professional manga? Is Teacher He Xi still good at Go?”
In the Phoenix Pavilion, Meng Huo glanced at the venue. He hadn’t spoken yet, but the faces of the audience in the venue were all doubts or disappointments after the noise. However, he already knew this scene in his mind, “God of Chess” has not really been released yet, for these readers, they certainly can’t imagine how it will show up.
Meng Huo is the only one who understands it. The subject of this comic seems to make people stay away from it. However, whether or not they can play Go and whether they can understand chess is of little significance to “Soul of the Game”.
To say why, the simplest example is him. He doesn’t know Go, even after watching “Soul of Go”, he still can’t play, but this doesn’t affect his liking. Moreover, Meng Huo dared to swear that among the ten people who liked the spirit of chess in his previous life, it is estimated that none of them would really play chess.
Therefore, he picked up the microphone and said in front of the regretful audience: “As you can see, the new comic has been decided to be a Go comic. Of course, I believe everyone is very strange and disappointed… Few people can play Go, and they are not interested in Go, am I right?”
Under the stage, there was a harmony voice from the horse, and many people shouted for Meng Huo to change his mind. Go is really not a subject that everyone likes Meng Huo thought about it: “I draw comics, very I rarely think about other people’s preferences…I ask you one thing, before the launch of “Detective Conan”, would anyone think they would like a detective manga?”
He looked at the audience, and dozens of people shouted.
“Well, I didn’t think there were so many detective fans before.” Meng Huo smiled bitterly, and then asked: “Before the launch of “Things Elf”, there will be people who believe that an animation of grabbing objects can become the most popular in China. Animation?”
This time, there was a tumult in the audience, and more than a dozen people said they believed it.
“You are smarter than CCTV!”
Meng Huo shook his head, and many people laughed at once. To be honest, before the “Things Elf” came out, if someone told them that an animation on this subject would become the No. 1 in China, then no one would believe it.
The agitation in the auditorium gradually diminished, and fans already understood what Meng Huo meant-this Go comic is the same as “Detective Conan” and “Things Elf”, a comic that will be unexpected. (To be continued)
