Chapter 222 Extra Chapter Promotion
"?" Editor-in-Chief Sato.
“?” Vice President Yukou.
Then the two of them looked at Tadatoshi Fujimaki with very unified eyes. They both knew that the comic he drew happened to be science fiction, oh no, it was basketball.
"Gu Sang joined the basketball club?" Sato said, "It seems that Gu Sang also loves sports. Can you please lead the way from your school and let us meet Gu Sang."
Neon people use words more humbly. They address themselves as "I" and the other party as "Your Excellency". The translators translate well.
Immediately afterwards, Director Hu led Sato and his party to the basketball club’s activity location.
Coincidentally, the basketball club was playing a match, a 3V3 bullfight.
"That is classmate Gu Lu." Director Hu introduced.
Follow the direction of Director Hu's finger and look, yes, Gu Lu is waiting to deliver water.
As the most knowledgeable person in the basketball club, Gu Lu did not want to fight, and the instructor would not force him. After all, King Gulu would not escape during training in the club.
Even though Gu Lu is an underage student writer, seeing his immature face with his own eyes still made Sato and his team take a breath.
It is hard to imagine how students who seem to be weak in literature can write those works.
"Fujimaki-san." Editor-in-chief Sato suddenly stopped the cartoonist who was watching the game, "Do you have any ideas?"
The cartoonist and the vice president looked at Sato at the same time.
"Have you ever thought about joint promotion?" Editor-in-Chief Sato asked the cartoonist.
It’s not impossible to catch up on the popularity. Although his comics are very popular, Fujimaki Tadatoshi is very happy to be more popular and even more popular in China.
Gu Lu is very popular in Neon. In addition to his works, he also has a genius character. Of course, Neon is not Mu Cai Cai, but Mu Qiang. With the blessing of Gu Lu’s age, he seems too powerful. Currently, in Neon Neon has reached the level of popularity as a second-tier writer in just a few months (with the blessing of Junji Ito’s fame).
As for how to jointly promote, it is too common in the comic world.
For example, jointly drawing a volume of content is like the Straw Hat Pirates who have been to the world of "Gourmet Prisoners", or Conan and Luban III, etc.
The summary is to make a side volume. Kuroko Basketball is so good, so just make a training camp about the talented high school basketball team from China and a game with Seirin High School where the main character Kuroko Tetsuya is. The Hua Xiacai High School Basketball Team is based on the basketball club of the Eighth Middle School...
Tadatoshi Fujimaki has already thought of the general plot, but he didn't give anyone any special functions... Oh, it's basketball skills.
For those who are not familiar with the work "Kuroko's Basketball", let's do some popular science. Fujimaki Tadatoshi's manga is a science fiction film with a basketball skin. In it, Midorima's ability is 100% super high arc. When it comes to shooting the basket, Kise completely imitates it and then uses it after just one look. That's the tone.
"There is still a gap between it and the comics." Director Hu looked at the students running rampant on the playground, and found that a few little devils didn't know what they were discussing, so he couldn't help but help the basketball club to save their respect.
Director Hu was in the principal's office just now. He heard the translator introduce Fujimaki Tadatoshi, a sports cartoonist, who happened to draw basketball.
Director Hu has never seen Heizi. There is a gap between top NBA players and comics.
The 3V3 bullfight was over, Gu Lu brought water to Lu Ping, and then Director Hu introduced Sato and Yukou over.
"Gu Sang, I am Sato, the editor-in-chief of "Mystery Magazine". I have been friends with you for a long time. I help proofread every piece of your work." Sato's words were a lie.
"I am Yukou, the vice president of Xiangchuan Society, and I also like Gu Sang's works very much." Yukou said, what he told was also a lie. He had never read it at all, he only knew it was famous.
The two of them did not neglect Gu Lu at all because of his age. It probably had something to do with the fact that the writer was very respected in Neon.
Why did these two neon people come to see him? Gu Lu was confused. After listening to the translator, he greeted him politely.
On the other side, Tadatoshi Fujimaki has begun to collect information, and all the people in Lu Pingping's 3V3 just now were stopped. It was difficult because there was only one translator, and he must have been following the vice president.
Tadatoshi Fujimaki held a translator in his hand and reluctantly communicated, "My name is Tadatoshi Fujimaki, and I am a cartoonist."
"He said he is a cartoonist. , is it true? ”
"It should be true. Didn't you see that he came with Director Hu?"
"What is the neon cartoonist doing here with us?"
"You can tell at a glance, come here The one who came to find my good friend Zulu was determined to turn his work into a comic book. "
...
Gu Lu and Vice President Yukou also had difficult negotiations, but the difficulty here was, It's not about the language, it's about the price.
After about 20 minutes of verbal fighting, Gu Lu got a compromise price of 11.5%
The approximate range of neon stamp tax is 8% to 14%, and anything over 14% is a best-seller. As a book writer, people like Keigo Higashino in his previous life could earn upwards of 20% at his peak. That was achieved through best-selling works one after another. There is no way to compare.
Director Hu's eyes widened at the side, because he was surprised that the student Gu Lu was so "social" and could bargain with foreign publishing houses.
"Is the Little Prince very popular in Neon?" Gu Lu really didn't know. He only knew that Neon seemed to have produced the Little Prince animation.
No matter what, those who write ethical literature and fairy tale literature in Neon are beings at the top of the chain of contempt.
After the conversation, Gu Lu left immediately because he suddenly thought of something that he had almost forgotten.
He walked towards the third floor of the teaching building in a hurry.
It was after the initial negotiation of the contract that the translator came to Fujimaki's rescue. He probably wrote down a few people's faces and sketched them in the inspiration notebook he carried with him.
Also wrote a line of Japanese, [The Imperial High School that stands out from billions of people - No. 8 Middle School. ]
Drawing animation is the same as writing novels. The opponent must be strong, so No. 8 Middle School must be the strongest basketball high school in China according to his writing.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side, and Gu Lu connects the other.
"Brother Gu is here", "Brother Gu, this is a consultant", "It's really troublesome for Teacher Gu to come over" and so on, the president and members of the Model United Nations club all stood up to say hello.
Also due to Gu Lu's current reputation, it directly led to the fact that even though he was the same age, his classmates didn't know what to call him, so they called him all kinds of weird things.
"Just call me Gulu. I mainly play the role of a mascot." Gu Lu said, "There is something going on at the basketball club, so I came a little late. Isn't it late?"
"No, the time agreed with us is just right." said the tall member.
The fat club member said, "No, no, no, how can it be a mascot? You are as important as our president."
Who is the president of Model United Nations?
Zhou Lin!
If he and Zhou Lin were the only two people here, Gu Lu would definitely ask, "How did you conspire to usurp the throne?"
Served as the president when he was a junior, this guy is simply as good as heaven. .
Perhaps seeing Gu Lu's doubts, the club members explained, "After our president Mizan resigned because of his senior year in high school, we started voting internally to select the president. Zhou Lin was the president who passed the unanimous vote."
The person involved also Even Zhou Lin herself didn't say a word, because others had to say the words of praise.
Hey, stop laughing, your mouth is almost turning into a pout.
