A perfect life starting from a light novel writer

Several people wanted to say something, but in the end they didn't say anything.

Xia Yan created the script and paid for it. It was natural that he would produce this animation, although it was different from the process of the company they worked for before.

but

This is Xia Yan.

The man who created the Circle and the cyberpunk Edgewalker.

After thinking about it, they took the animation script given by Xia Yan and left to coordinate with several other departments.

Xia Yan will soon have to deal with other work.

It is now late September, and there are only two weeks left for the Initial D comic to be completed.

The second and third animated BD volumes of Cyberpunk Edge Walker will also be released one after another.

and

Xia Yan hasn't cooperated with the promotion of Sword Art Online's new novel for a long time.

Today, Sword Art Online and Initial D are only one breath away from reaching the top of their respective single-volume sales in the field of novels and comics.

Fortunately, Sword Art Online is only 200,000 volumes behind the single volume sales of the first-place work, Different World Revolutionary. Judging from the current monthly sales of Sword Art Online, this gap will be caught up within a month.

As for Initial D, because its manga is coming to an end, only the last four volumes are left for sale in single volumes.

Its sales volume is only 300,000 copies away from the current number one Double Ring in the industry.

At this time, the creator Xia Yan was promoting the release of a new single book, which was of great significance to Initial D's rise to the top.

After calling Liuli Book Club and Beizhou Comics Club to confirm a rough itinerary for the next few weeks. ♦♦  ♦♦

night

Xia Yan took the full-time Hunter comic storyboard draft home and knocked on the doorbell of Mo Ran's room.

"Who!"

Mo Ran's curious voice came from the intercom.

After all, Tang Yin and Song Lingjun would not come to her at this time.

During this period, Tang Yin worked overtime every night to deal with the copyright issues of the cyberpunk animation.

Song Lingjun's new novel has reached a critical moment in serialization. It is very difficult to surpass Xia Yan's No. 1 in Sword Art Online in the voting rankings. However, her novel has been in the top four of the journal for half a year. Now and other The battle between the two works for the second place in the journal was very fierce. Apart from going to class all day long, I stayed in my room studying novels.

As for Mo Ran

After completing the manga manuscript of the last chapter of Initial D and submitting it to Beizhou Comics two weeks ago, she entered her happy life.

No more pressure from comic drawing, no endless schedule, just fan meetings.

When I get home every day, I lie down and sleep

"Me." Xia Yan responded.

"Eh? Wait for me." Mo Ran's voice was slightly panicked. Xia Yan waited for ten minutes.

Xia Yan, who had been standing at the door for a long time with the storyboard in hand, finally couldn't help but want to ring the doorbell a second time when the door to the room finally opened.

Wearing a long aqua dress, her waist-length hair was tied up with a hairband, a girl with fair skin, delicate and cute appearance, and Asuna's exclusive co-branded slippers walked out.

"Xia Yan, why are you looking for me so late at night?"

"What are you? Did you just change clothes in the room?" Xia Yan asked.

"Well, well, I was wearing pajamas before, so I was embarrassed to see people." Mo Ran quickly ignored the topic.

Xia Yan shook his head, unable to understand what the girls were thinking.

It doesn't matter if you wear a swimsuit when you go on summer vacation, but what are you afraid of if you wear pajamas that wrap you up tightly?

He didn't feel it was necessary, but he didn't dwell on it.

"Well, this is the storyboard draft of the new comic." Xia Yan handed a messy pile of drawings to Mo Ran.

"Hey, is it so fast? It's only been two weeks since I handed in the finished draft of Initial D's comic." Mo Ran said in surprise after taking the draft.

"The main reason is that the Beizhou Comics Club is pressing hard. There is no other way. They have allocated a large amount of money and are preparing to launch a large-scale promotion of the new comics of our group throughout the Dragon Kingdom. According to the plan, it will only take a month. Time." Xia Yan said.

"One month" Mo Ran thought for a while after hearing this.

In other words, Xia Yan and Beizhou's arrangement is to finish Initial D in early October, and then strike while the iron is hot two or three weeks later, and Xia Yan's new comic will be serialized before the popularity of Initial D dissipates. This is the plan of Beizhou Comics Club.

so.

"You have to work harder here, the vacation is over." Xia Yan said.

"Is this the end?" Mo Ran covered her forehead with her fingers, pretending to be heartbroken.

.

But when I took over the comic storyboard from Xia Yan, I was still very excited.

Although it is more comfortable to do nothing all day long, it also feels quite empty after a long time.

At least in the past few days, she really missed the days of drawing Initial D comics in the past year.

"Full-time hunter?" Mo Ran had a strange expression after seeing the name.

"hunter?"

"The new comic is about the life of hunting animals?"

"You should read the storyboard first before talking." Xia Yan coughed and said.

To be honest, the name of Hunter's work is very misleading.

It is easy for animation fans who have never seen it to think that this is the kind of life with hunting as the main plot, or a food-oriented work.

At least that's what the girl named Yuan Qing in Xia Yan's mind thought at first.

But in fact, hunter is just a profession in it, and after the comics, it can be said that it is also a pronoun. If I have to say it, I feel that labels such as super mercenaries are more suitable for the work of this profession.

The protagonist in One Piece does not do the bad things that traditional pirates do. In fact, the protagonist in Naruto has nothing to do with the duties and behaviors of ninjas in the traditional sense. Ninjas who act openly and do good things under the sun are more abstract. Among hunters, similarly, the guys called hunters are actually a group of detectives, mercenaries or thugs who are paid to do things.

These things are the norm in the two-dimensional circles of island countries.

Mo Ran picked up the comic storyboard given by Xia Yan and didn't waste any time. She leaned on the railing of the corridor on the second floor of Xia Yan's villa and sat on the ground with her knees bent and started reading.

hunter

Whale Island.

Protagonist Xiaojie

Um.

The early plot of this work really has a rural, everyday feel to it.

When the protagonist Xiaojie appears, he is also a young man with superb hunting skills and a good understanding of animals.

In the first chapter of the comic, the main story is that the protagonist Xiaojie is preparing to leave home to take the dangerous hunter exam in order to find his father, and in the process, he makes a bet with his guardian Aunt Mitt.

It's a little slow, but the overall plot rhythm is very good.

"Is this a battle comic?" Mo Ran asked after reading the storyboards of two chapters of the comic.

"That's right." Xia Yan nodded.

All right

Mo Ran had already guessed that Xia Yan's new comic would definitely not have any racing plot.

In his works until now, there are no repeated themes.

But it’s a fighting comic

"What's wrong? Do you feel there is something wrong?" Xia Yan asked.

"No, it's just that all my previous experience in drawing racing comics has been reduced to zero. The storyboards, character design, and expressive tension of the battle comics have to be re-established from the beginning to the end. A little bit, I feel a little bit Uneasy." Mo Ran said with a smile.

The storyboards of the first few chapters of Full-Time Hunter that Xia Yan gave her only started the story and briefly introduced the world view. In fact, with this amount of content, the quality of this work could not be seen at all.

but

Mo Ran looked at Xia Yan's confident expression and felt inexplicably at peace.

Others may need to worry about the new work hitting the street, but Xia Yan’s words

Mo Ran smiled softly.

How could this guy have poor results in his new work?

I can only say how good it is.

In the last few days of September, Xia Yan was busy preparing for the production of two new works.

Soon, time entered October.

The second volume of Cyberpunk Edgewalker bd is released, and

Beizhou Comics is overwhelmingly promoting the completion of Initial D!

At this point, the entire Dragon Kingdom Initial D fans finally let go of their last expectations and honestly accepted the fact that this comic will be finished soon.
