Qianwumei Also Wants To Be a Cartoonist

Seven Weapons is ostensibly about the famous weapons in the martial arts: Longevity Sword, Peacock Feather, Jasper Sword, Passionate Ring, Parting Hook, Overlord Spear.

Gu Long said: In martial arts novels, there are all kinds of wonderful weapons... As far as knives are concerned, there are single knives, double knives, ghost-headed knives, ring knives, Jie knives, and golden back machetes... But Weapons are dead, but people are alive. Whether a weapon can make readers feel magical and exciting depends mainly on who uses it.

Therefore, Gu Long actually wrote about the human heart and humanity, the power of personality and the power of spirit beyond weapons.

Everyone can write about killing, but only Gu Long writes about the unique life experience of human beings facing extreme situations; everyone can write about weapons, and only Gu Long penetrates into the meticulous and subtle spiritual world of the people who use weapons.

Gu Long summed up several metaphysical weapons: laughter, self-confidence, honesty, hatred, gathering (guarding against arrogance), courage, and not giving up. In this sense, Gu Long is a veritable philosopher.

Raise a cup to relieve sorrow and make sorrow worse, draw a knife to cut off water and make water flow more, cups and knives are dead props, lifting and pumping are human actions, and the most important thing is obviously the people behind the props and actions mentality.

Third-rate writers write about props, second-rate writers write about human actions, and first-rate writers write about people's mentality and spirit.

In fact, what makes Gu Long's works the most brilliant in comics is his lines.

If there are some classic lines in a comic, that is the real finishing touch!

For example, in The Farewell Hook in Seven Weapons, there is such a dialogue——

I know the hook is a weapon, and it ranks seventh among the eighteen weapons. What about the parting hook?

The parting hook is also a weapon and a hook.

Because of this hook, no matter what it hooks, it will cause parting. If it hooks your hand, your hand will part from your wrist; if it hooks your foot, your foot will part from your leg.

If it catches my throat, shall I say goodbye to this world?

Yes.

Why do you use such a brutal weapon?

Because I don't want to be forced to say goodbye to the one I love.

I understand what you mean.

You really understand?

You use the parting hook just to get together.

Yes.

...

In fact, the most taboo thing about drawing comics is the long lines and explanations. Everything should be expressed with drawings as much as possible. The more refined the lines spoken by the characters, the more flavorful they will be, which will make the style of the comic itself or force it. Leap!

As for pretending to be coercive, that is really Gu Long's forte. Reading Gu Long's articles, there will always be a special kind of coercion.

For example, a more classic description of the environment in Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword——

The cold wind is like a knife, the earth is used as a chopping board, and all living beings are regarded as fish and meat.

Thousands of miles of flying snow, using the sky as an oven, melting everything into silver.

The snow is coming, the wind is still uncertain, a carriage comes from the north, the rolling wheels crush the ice and snow on the ground, but they cannot crush the loneliness between heaven and earth.

Therefore, when drawing comics about Gu Long's novels, An Yi changed to a different style of painting. This style of painting is not as exquisite and beautiful as in The Sword of Yue Nu, but more flying and elegant. The descriptions in Gu Long's novels are even better. Gu Long's martial arts, the most important thing is the artistic conception!

And An Yi, as a painter who is good at ink painting, can also draw such an artistic conception!

Ordinary cartoonists will definitely think that the adaptation of Gu Long's novel is very difficult to draw, because it is too freehand, and there is no way to draw that feeling, but for a genius like An Yi who has no dead ends in all aspects, there is no problem !

If fans of Gu Long's novels come to this world and see the comics adapted from Gu Long's novels drawn by An Yi, they will definitely like this kind of comics full of original Gu Long's style!

Even Gu Long himself,

Seeing the comics adapted from his novels, he will definitely be full of praise!

After An Yi completed the first part of Seven Weapons, she continued to hand it over to her brother, and told him that if she mailed it at this time, she would definitely not be able to meet the deadline for the Rising Star Newcomer Award. So I asked my brother to personally submit the manuscript to the magazine that issued Kingdom of Martial Arts.

An Li wanted to drag her sister away with her, but An Yi said that she just didn't want to leave the house... she was about to go to school, how annoying!

In desperation, Anli could only go to the magazine office in the capital Hanjing by himself, and it took only two hours to take the high-speed train from Changling City to Hanjing.

That's right, although the development of the Internet in this world is at least ten years slower than that of An Yi's world, the construction of infrastructure is quite good, completely comparable to her world, not only has high-speed rail, but also airships, as expected It is the real kingdom of heaven.

Before submitting a manuscript to the Kingdom of Martial Arts magazine, you first need to call the magazine to make an appointment. The person who answered Anli's call was a female editor with a cold voice, but when she heard that it was Yi An's manuscript, she was very cold. The voice suddenly became eager!

Although An Li is taciturn in front of his sister and does more than talk, but outside, he is quite good at observing words and demeanor. It is really reasonable for a child from a poor family to take charge of the family early.

An Li's popularity in school is also quite good. He wears glasses, looks handsome, and has a mature and reliable temperament. He is very measured when getting along with others. I'm afraid that some girls will chase after him.

So when the other party changed his tone when he heard the name Yi An, he knew that his sister's comic called Yue Nu Sword must have impressed the female editor!

An Li is the first reader of his younger sister. Even though he doesn't like comics very much, he still reads them with great interest. Perhaps there are factors of love for the house and black people in it. When the close-up of Holding Heart, he was stunned at that moment!

He didn't expect that his younger sister could draw Xi Shi, one of the four beauties in history, so beautifully, vividly, and vividly on paper!

There are such beauties in this world!

There is a painter in this world who can completely portray such a beauty!

At that moment, An Li suddenly felt a kind of admiration for his sister, he knew that his sister would definitely be able to do it, she was born for painting...

At this time, An Li heard the female editor's affirmation again, and he felt certain in his heart immediately, so he chatted with the other party more calmly.
