Chapter 339: Comics and animations bloom, Hong Kong and Shanghai win big

Zhou Zhou Huimin was a third-year middle school student when school started. At an age no longer in the second year, she began to suffer the bitterness of love. Every day and night after parting with Wei Ming, she longed for a reunion, and the tall and straight figure was lingering in her mind.

And the literary performance for all teachers and students on the first day of school intensified this longing, because they sang "Tomorrow Will Be Better."

This time, the classmates in their choir were no longer background boards for backing vocals. After arrangement, all members had a line of lyrics, and she was still the lead singer and the absolute C position.

At this moment, Zhou Zhou Huimin had become the spiritual leader of the choir and a star student of the school.

I heard that there were boys from other schools who ran to St. Stephen's College specifically to see her. To this, she just wanted to say one word: "Childish."

When her A-Ming was already worried about the world's worries before the world, and happy after the world's happiness, this group of little boys was still skipping classes for beautiful girls. It was simply a difference between clouds and mud, and there was no comparison.

Of course, childish little boys, besides skipping classes for beautiful girls, would also fight for a comic book.

Zheng Zheng Yijian, who was the same age as Zhou Zhou Huimin, was an ordinary middle school student in Kowloon. If there was anything unusual about him, it might be that he was handsome.

But being handsome didn't make him a popular figure in the school. On the contrary, he had an introverted personality and was even a bit withdrawn. He didn't fit in usually.

In this era when video games were not yet popular, what he liked most was reading comics.

Usually, the ones he liked to read were "Dragon Tiger Gate" and "Li Zheng Xiaolong." Since Shangguan Wei Xiaobao joined Huang Yulang International, he felt that the quality of "Li Zheng Xiaolong" had improved to a higher level.

And today, when he was looking for comics to read in a bookstore near the school, suddenly a magazine called "Madman Comics" entered his sight. The ancient characters on the cover made him put the magazine in his hand involuntarily.

The cover was the main characters of "The Legend of Qin," with men and women, men handsome, women beautiful, and a bit sexy, and it was drawn very delicately and even artistically.

Touching the paper and thickness again, it felt like this magazine

However, after taking a look at the price tag on the back, Zheng Zheng Yijian was pleasantly surprised to find that it was only two yuan, the same price as those other crudely made comic magazines.

What a conscience!

So, Zheng Zheng Yijian began to read the table of contents with peace of mind.

The story on the cover should be called "The Legend of Qin," the lead artist is Liu Liu Yunlong, and the screenwriter is Wei Wei Kuangren; these two names sound very much like a comic.

There is also one called "Heroes Are Young Since Ancient Times," which is also by these two people.

Eh, this name sounds a bit familiar.

Oh, I remember now, there was a movie with this name before, it seems to be a comic of the same name.

At that time, because there was no leftist cinema nearby, Zheng Zheng Yijian could not see this famous movie, but this time he could make up for the regret.

He took another look at the front page and discovered a problem: the editor-in-chief of this magazine is Wei Wei Kuangren, and the acting editor-in-chief is Liu Liu Yunlong.

This Wei Wei Kuangren also seems to have been heard of somewhere, but I can't remember; forget it, it's not important, let's just read the comics.

He immediately started reading the content in front of "The Legend of Qin." At the very beginning, the Sword Saint Ge Nie unleashed a powerful move, taking Jing Tianming and escaping from the heavy encirclement of the Qin army. However, there was still the pursuit of the Quicksand organization, and the four major killers under Wei Zhuang were one more formidable than the next.

Just as Zheng Zheng Yijian was watching in tension and excitement, the bookstore owner suddenly passed behind him and coughed twice.

This cough was not aimed at him; Zheng Zheng Yijian looked up and found that several boys of similar age around him had already picked up this new magazine to flip through.

Coughing by the boss, Zheng Zheng Yijian immediately took out money. Although his family was an ordinary family, it was only two yuan after all, and he could still afford it.

After buying the magazine, Zheng Zheng Yijian returned to school and began to read it seriously.

The art style of "The Legend of Qin" is very beautiful, and in his view, it is even a bit gorgeous. Whether it is the background, the characters, or the fighting, the quality is much higher than those Hong Kong comics now.

The pre-Qin era is truly an era that makes people reminisce!

It's a pity that this story is not long. He has already seen the last page, and the follow-up story can only be seen in half a month; this is a semi-monthly magazine.

Next, he went to see "Heroes Are Young Since Ancient Times." It can be seen that it is the style of the same lead artist, but "Heroes" should be an earlier work, and the quality is slightly worse than "The Legend of Qin."

While watching, Zheng Zheng Yijian felt a bit of an urgent need to urinate, so he put the magazine into the drawer.

However, when he came back, the class bully, Chicken Brother, was sitting around his seat with a few younger brothers, holding his magazine in his hands and shouting.

"Damn, this is amazing!"

"This is too awesome!"

"Chicken Brother, turn the page slowly; I haven't finished reading yet."

Zheng Zheng Yijian thought about it and finally didn't walk over, thinking that Chicken Brother would leave after class. However, after the class bell rang, Chicken Brother left and also took away his comic book.

"Chicken Brother..." Zheng Zheng Yijian finally stopped him.

"What for?"

"My, my comic book." He pointed to Chicken Brother's claw.

"I'll return it to you when I finish reading it." After Chicken Brother finished speaking, he went straight back to the back row of the classroom and continued to read "Lek Wong."

A younger brother had just flipped out this comic, and he was immediately attracted by the bloody and violent scenes in "Lek Wong," and he also immediately remembered the lead artist of this comic, Niu Lao, and the screenwriter, Wei Wei Kuangren.

Zheng Zheng Yijian kept looking back uneasily, finding that Chicken Brother was still reading the comic, and couldn't help but want to remind him that today is the head teacher's class, so be low-key, but unfortunately the distance was too far to reach.

Chicken Brother didn't read the comic honestly; while reading, he flexed the muscles on his arms, or lifted his top to look at his abdominal muscles, and lamented the gap between himself and the male lead. No, he still has to practice.

He was just reading with excitement when suddenly a shadow fell over his head. Looking up, the head teacher with sparse hair was giving him a death stare.

Chicken Brother hadn't reacted yet when the head teacher took away his comic book, and Zheng Zheng Yijian's heart was dripping blood.

Head teacher Old Song is a history teacher, and after this class ended, he took the comic book back to the office.

Originally, he had no interest in this kind of comic book, but after flipping through it casually, he saw the name Wei Wei Kuangren.

If he remembered correctly, the mainland writer Wei Ming, who took the lead in organizing a charity concert some time ago, has a pen name called "Wei Wei Kuangren," right? And another one called "Wei Shenme."

Old Song is no stranger to Wei Shenme. Now "Ming Pao" is serializing his "Tianshu Qitan," and his son is watching it, and it's quite interesting. He has also watched it, adapted from "Ping Yao Zhuan," and it seems that he can faintly feel a trace of political metaphor. The author's skill is indeed very strong.

Based on his curiosity about Wei Ming, Old Song flipped to the table of contents page. A comic with the title "If History Were Cats" aroused his interest. He is not only a history teacher but also a cat lover.

He flipped directly to that page. This first story tells the story of the beginning of the world, Pangu Cat, Kuafu Cat, and other mythological legends.

Although the images of several mythological figures have become cats, the story is flawless, all of which are content from the "Records of the Grand Historian," but they are covered with cat skins and some cat elements are added, making serious history cute.

Old Song couldn't help but laugh after reading it. Not bad, not bad. If this comic is published as a single volume, he can buy it for his son to read.

After class, Zheng Zheng Yijian saw that Chicken Brother was going to leave as if nothing had happened, and finally gathered the courage to come to him: "Chicken Brother, my comic book..."

He hoped that Chicken Brother could help him get the comic book back. After all, he is a bully in the class, and maybe Old Song would give him some face.

However, these words seemed to remind Chicken Brother. He said: "Oh right, the comic book, I haven't finished reading that 'Wei Kuangren Comics' yet. You buy another one, and I'll continue reading it tomorrow."

Zheng Zheng Yijian: "Ah?"

"Ah what ah, buy it if I tell you to. You have to buy it every issue from now on, because I don't want to spend money." Chicken Brother said righteously, and after speaking, he pushed Zheng Zheng Yijian away.

At this moment, Zheng Zheng Yijian only hated that he was not the Sword Saint Ge Nie; he really wanted to hack this thing to death with a sword.

However, Zheng Zheng Yijian finally went to the bookstore to buy "Wei Kuangren Comics" obediently. One reason was that he was afraid that Chicken Brother would make things difficult for him, and the other was that he also wanted to finish reading this magazine. There were several other stories behind it that he was interested in.

But what he didn't expect was that it was sold out.

The boss smiled very happily: "That's right, it's sold out. No one bought it on the first day, but it's sold out today. Everyone who has read it says it's good, but the more it sells, the worse the boss will probably lose."

Zheng Zheng Yijian didn't understand what he meant, but he knew that he might be in trouble.

Sure enough, the next day when Chicken Brother didn't find "Wei Kuangren Comics" in his schoolbag, Chicken Brother became very manic, then beat him up, and told him not to stare at one bookstore, he could go to other stores to buy it!

Zheng Zheng Yijian might not know that "Wei Kuangren Comics" comes from Lu Xun's "A Madman's Diary," nor did he know that Lu Xun once really said: either erupt in silence or perish in silence.

But he really achieved this point. Zheng Zheng Yijian, who was forced by Chicken Brother, completely erupted, attacking this Chicken Brother who was doing evil in the class like a madman, making Chicken Brother's younger brothers dare not come forward.

And Chicken Brother was ultimately just a 14-year-old boy, not much taller or stronger than Zheng Zheng Yijian. Under the attack of Zheng Zheng Yijian in a berserk state, Chicken Brother softened.

"Sword Brother, don't hit me, Sword Brother, I was wrong, Sword Brother..."

"Dragon Brother."

"Dragon Brother."

"Good morning, Dragon Brother."

At the "Wei Kuangren Comics" magazine office, the cartoonists here are becoming more and more respectful to Liu Liu Rulong, an acting editor-in-chief who is not much older than themselves.

The inaugural issue of "Wei Kuangren Comics" has been released for the third day, and they have all visited bookstores near their homes. Their "Wei Kuangren Comics" are selling very well, everyone's works are liked by people, and some people praise them. They feel that they can finally make a name for themselves.

Liu Liu Rulong was calm and composed, quite like a general. He walked into his office, hesitated again and again, and dialed the printing company's phone.

"Print another 10,000 copies!"

The first printing of the inaugural issue was only 10,000. After all, the Hong Kong market is only so big, and there haven't been any 100,000-level comic publications yet.

10,000 copies are even a bit risky for a new publication.

However, judging from the feedback from many bookstores, the magazine's reputation began to ferment in three days, and 10,000 copies are definitely not enough to read, so he added 10,000 copies, which is also the last time to reprint.
