Qianwumei Also Wants To Be a Cartoonist

Since Teacher An An doesn't pay much attention to this project at all, we don't need to pay too much attention to it. Although the market potential of children's picture books is greater than that of literature and art picture books, new vests like 'Andersen' release works without publicity at all. , how could there be good sales? said Sun Xiumin, Shen Chengle's deputy.

Sun Xiumin was not optimistic about Andersen's Children's Picture Book at the beginning, because in the physical book market, it does not mean that any book with good quality can sell well, and there are very few pure new authors who can publish physical books, unless they publish at their own expense , otherwise, where would the publishing house take the risk of publishing works for pure newcomers? Or maybe they have a strong network, so that other famous artists can recommend his new works, and a certain famous artist recommends such a girdle, which makes people feel more confident.

Generally speaking, publishing houses still welcome authors who are serialized in magazines and become famous. Such authors have a foundation of popularity. If the works maintain a good reputation and quality, then naturally the wine is not afraid of deep alleys.

Teacher An An's reputation is of course very high, and the quality of her works is also very high, but she still wants to use the new vest, and she doesn't use her own fame to create momentum for the new vest. In this case, the publishing house directly helps her The first printing of 50,000 copies is already very face-saving.

Shen Chengle heard Sun Xiumin's words, and seeing the expressions of other people who also agreed, he couldn't help but regret: The quality of this children's picture book is really high. If possible, I don't want it to be buried. They didn't give us any promotional resources, it seems that they didn't take this children's picture book seriously... Think about it, the sales of any single martial arts comic book by Mr. Yi An can kill all picture books in seconds, even a mere children's picture book, It’s totally impossible to get them to pay attention.”

In the end, Shen Chengle reluctantly gave up, and the project was temporarily shelved. Sun Xiumin and others even felt that whether the first print of 50,000 copies of this children's picture book can be sold out is a problem. book.

But in this world, there are always those who like to dig out some buried gold.

Jiang Yulan is an elementary school Chinese teacher who likes to read. She has a lovely five-year-old daughter. Every weekend, she will take her daughter to the bookstore in the city center to read books, and she will also go shopping for books herself. .

Every time she comes to the book city, she will take her daughter to the children's picture book area. When the child is young, reading picture books with her is a good way of enlightenment, especially if you read high-quality picture books.

In Jiang Yulan's mind, the best picture book is of course Teacher An An's Flying Birds, but it is a literary picture book, which is not suitable for children. However, they regard Flying Birds as one of the classic picture books that must be read.

Jiang Yulan took out the third volume of Yang Yingna Children's Picture Book very familiarly, and prepared to read it with her daughter.

Yang Yingna is a senior picture book painter who focuses on the field of children's picture books. Her works have sold well and have even been exported overseas and translated into many languages. Five years ago, she was on the top of the list of picture book painters.

In all fairness, the standard of her works is really good, and she is extremely productive. After more than ten years of struggle in the field of children's picture books, it is inevitable that she can achieve what she is today.

That is, last year, Teacher An An's literary picture book Flying Birds was published, which slightly broke Yang Yingna's dominance. At that time, a reporter who feared that the world would not be chaotic interviewed Yang Yingna and asked her her opinion on Flying Birds .

A reporter who likes to stir up trouble, before asking Yang Yingna's opinion on Flying Birds, said a lot of things that made people uncomfortable. It's not as good as Teacher An An's. Of course, the standard of the reporter's speech is still very high. He didn't say these words directly, but expressed the meaning in a roundabout way.

However, Yang Yingna has seen a lot of strong winds and waves,

Where will she be a reporter, she is also recognized in the circle as popular, so she just smiled and said that she admires Teacher An An's literary picture books, and hopes that Teacher An An will continue to work hard.

She knew that An An's field of focus was still in the field of comics, and the picture books were only literary picture books, which could not threaten her status at all. Why would she want to offend a genius like Teacher An An?

Besides, the money she earns in a year is actually enough to spend her whole life, so she is very open-minded, and she often likes to support new picture book painters.

After all, in the whole of Greater China, comics are the real mainstream. If you can make a breakthrough in the field of comics, who will draw picture books?

After Jiang Yulan accompanied her daughter to read picture books for a while, she prepared to let her read by herself. She said to her daughter, Naonao, you can read here by yourself, and mom will also find some books to accompany you.

Although Nao Nao's nickname is Nao Nao, she is actually very quiet. She nodded obediently.

When Jiang Yulan went to search for books, the young girl Nao Nao also put down this Yang Yingna Children's Picture Book. In fact, she was already tired of reading Yang Yingna's picture books. After reading a few books, I felt really boring, and the paintings inside were not very good, and I felt not cute at all, not as good as those comics she secretly read at home!

Nao Nao is obviously a relatively precocious child, otherwise ordinary children, how could they dislike Yang Yingna's works?

Nao Nao also started looking for other children's picture books at will. Coincidentally, she saw a lonely copy of Andersen Children's Picture Book in the corner. She thought the cover was very beautiful, so she picked up this picture book and read it... …

When she opened the picture book and saw the pictures inside, her whole eyes lit up. These pictures are so exquisite. Just because of these beautiful pictures, she was immediately attracted!

When Jiang Yulan came back with the book she found, she saw that her daughter was reading a new picture book with such relish, she was even more involved than when she was reading with her daughter before!

This involuntarily aroused her curiosity, and she went to her daughter to have a look, but she was also attracted by the superb painting skills inside, and she even had a feeling that it's a bit of a waste to draw picture books with such painting skills. Thoughts, we can see how pleasing the paintings in this picture book are.
