The King of Crossover Entertainment

Penguin Comics Network’s traffic reached a new high due to the exclusive release of “Wind and Cloud I”.

The 123th issue of "Wind and Cloud I" has also been in the top three of the sales list.

The popularity of "Wind and Cloud I" gave many comics practitioners hope.

The establishment of the Blue Star Village Alliance has led to the rapid development of the world economy, more diverse cultural needs, and continuous expansion of aesthetic boundaries.

Chinese people have gradually entered a stage where they can accept comics as an art form. At the same time, the Internet has lowered the communication threshold and enlarged the content market. The number of comic consumers has continued to increase, which has forced the supply of content.

In the past two months, original Chinese comics have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

This makes domestic comic fans extremely happy.

"It is true that novels and comics are more efficient, but they always make their own decisions, adding and subtracting plots at will, resulting in a huge difference from the original novel, and it seems that there is no sense of substitution at all. This is one of the reasons why the sales of Chinese comics are not increasing."

"There should be more originality, diversify the themes, and enrich the genres. Then who will watch American comics."

"Cartoons with an oriental aesthetic still look comfortable."

"Coming from life and going to life, the basic skill of comics is to draw materials and cannot be far away from life. Our Chinese cultural treasures are extremely rich and inexhaustible. There is no need to imitate others. "

"There are 1.8 billion people. There are more than tens of thousands of people with well-drawn comics and well-written plots, but they just haven't found the right direction."

…

The current good development situation shows that Guoman is on the rise.

In recent years, a number of excellent works have emerged, such as "The Great Confucian Hero", "New Stories of Journey to the West", "New Stories of Fengshen", "The Summit of Immortals", "Don't Mess with Me, the Overbearing President", especially "Wind and Cloud I" "The emergence of this phenomenal work has found a model for the rise of Chinese comics, provided cases and experience, and attracted widespread attention.

This is a good side, of course, there is also a bad side.

That is "following the trend".

Today, a new comic called "The World" appeared on the large cover recommendation on the homepage of Penguin Comics.

The style of painting is very similar to "Wind and Cloud I", and the setting is also quite similar, with a fantasy martial arts story, two protagonists, and two magic weapons.

The first issue went on sale, and the sales volume has been astonishingly hot, winning the domestic comic online single-day sales championship.

This made fans of "Feng Yun I" very angry.

[Cute Meng Trying to Lose Weight]: Penguin Comics Network was so shameless. When they saw "Wind and Cloud I" becoming popular, they immediately asked their comic studio to make a copy of it.

[Luo Tomato]: The most disgusting thing is that "The World" and "Feng Yun I" are deliberately placed in the same position for recommendation.

[The Sunset Is Falling]: Are you all so aboveboard?

[Tian Xing is vigorous and unstoppable]: This is a regular operation of Penguin Comics. The first "Super Android" published was a copy of MD Company's "Super Human". The protagonist's abilities are almost the same as the super human "Rayman" Exactly the same, super strength, super speed, super endurance and the ability to fly.

[Yang entering the tiger's mouth]: Following the trend is essentially a learning instinct, but copying it directly is too much.

…

Someone even posted a comparison between the two comics in the comics circle.

1st Floor: Support Zhaoyun Muyu in safeguarding his rights!

Floor 2: In this comparison, there are really many similarities.

Floor 3: Not only do they look like the curly-haired senior brother Xiao Lingtian, the long-haired junior brother Ye Gushang, but also Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng.

Floor 4: Plagiarism is shameful! Boycott "The World"!

Floor 5: To put it bluntly, it’s not like this style of painting and plot didn’t exist before, it just didn’t become popular.

Floor 6: There is nothing we can do about it. There is a line for judging plagiarism. As long as it is used properly, it is just a reference.

Floor 7: Can the affairs of intellectuals be called plagiarism?

Floor 8: Painting is based on copying. Let’s not talk about comics or traditional paintings. To put it another way, one person looks like another person. Can this kind of thing be said to be someone who copied whom?

Floor 9: Reasonable and reasonable. Although the style of painting and the characters are similar, the plots are different.

10th Floor: If the plot dares to be the same, I’m afraid I’ll lose my pants.

Many comic fans who saw this post joined the discussion.

at this time.

Zheng Rong's face turned solemn and a little angry. He came to Yunfeng's office, put the tablet on the desk and said, "Take a look at this."

"What's wrong?" Yunfeng picked up the tablet and displayed a comic.

Zheng Rong frowned and said, "Don't you think it's very similar to "Wind and Cloud I"?"

Yunfeng flipped through a few pages and said, "Well... to be honest, it's not very similar."

Zheng Rong was stunned, then he stood up and walked to Yunfeng's side, pointed at the tablet and said, "Doesn't this look like Bu Jingyun? Doesn't this look like Nie Feng?"

Yunfeng smiled and said, "It's just a hair image."

Zheng Rong asked again: "What about the painting style?"

"The painting style is somewhat similar, but compared to "Wind and Cloud I", it's still a lot worse." In fact, Yunfeng knew Zheng Rong's purpose when he first saw the comic on his tablet computer.

Zheng Rong raised his eyebrows and said: "This is clearly a plagiarism from "Feng Yun I", how can you still keep calm?"

"Brother Zheng, calm down first." Yunfeng stood up, pulled a chair over, and said: "In the painting world, there is no such thing as plagiarism of painting style. For example, you can say that the storyboard, composition, and layout of a comic constitute plagiarism, but if you say that an artist's painting style is plagiarized, this is too far-fetched. Moreover, according to this statement, from ancient times to the present, from the West to the East, there are too many painters and calligraphers who can constitute plagiarism."

Zheng Rong: "..."

Yunfeng changed the subject and said: "However, whether this comic is plagiarized from "Feng Yun I", let me take a look at it later."

The first issue of the comic "Tianxia" has only five chapters.

The story is about Xiao Lingtian and Ye Gushang, who have been worshipped in Tianmen for 18 years and have learned their skills. They stole two swords from their master and went down the mountain. The swords turned out to be the Dragon Roar Sword and Phoenix Dance Sword that the major sects in the martial arts world have been looking for...

Zheng Rong couldn't help asking, "How is it?"

Yun Feng shook his head slightly and said, "Although the hairstyles and weapons of the two protagonists are indeed very similar to Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng, and the painting style is also realistic + beautiful, but just based on these points, it does not constitute plagiarism."

The plot is indeed different from the entire story of Fengyun.

Some of the settings in it are a bit like Jin Yong's novel "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" on the previous earth.

Zheng Rong frowned and said, "Is it really not plagiarism?"

Yun Feng nodded and said, "At most it is a follow-up."

If you look closely at the comic "Tianxia", whether it is the painting or the plot, it is relatively rough, and it seems to be rushed out to catch the heat.

It's just like the "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" which followed the trend of "Ghost Blows Out the Light", but the quality of "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" is still very good.
