Chapter 210 0210, The Charm of Sports Comics (2)
Comic expos, also known as animation exhibitions, are a place for comic fans from all walks of life to make friends. The main participants are cosplayers, photography enthusiasts and tourists.
Generally, at comic exhibitions, new works will be previewed, as well as various animation peripherals. Some animation and game exhibitions will also prepare game projects such as client games, mobile games, and console games.
The scale of the comic show and the products on display determine the quality of the comic show, that is, the various face-to-face meetings, press conferences and other related activities held there, as well as the peripherals sold at the exhibition.
Two different comic exhibitions will evolve here, one for festivals and one for consumers.
The former is generally suffixed with XX Comic Festival, XX Carnival, and XX Festival. It is common in major, medium and small cities, and can be said to be a naked money-making activity; the latter is a normal cartoon exhibition, which can be a fan exhibition or an animation game. Exhibitions are usually held in international cities.
On Blue Star, comic exhibitions emerged and flourished in the United States. Although they started late in China, due to the large number of comic fans, the popularity is not low.
This comic exhibition was held at the Shanghai New International Expo Center.
It’s 11 a.m., still an hour before the start.
In the exhibition hall, major animation companies are decorating their booths.
"Boss, the posters are here!" Yu Xiaoqian, an assistant at Youxianqi Audio and Video Studio, trotted to Youxianqi Company's booth, holding a stack of posters in her hands that she had just picked up.
"Thank you for your hard work." Yunfeng took the poster and placed it on a long table.
Tang Yu on the side asked: "Is it the poster of "Slam Dunk"?"
Yunfeng nodded and said: "Well, I want to use this comic exhibition to warm up."
The comic "Slam Dunk" was only obtained last Monday. There was no time to design and produce other peripheral products. The poster was relatively simple, so I had to make do with it.
Yu Xiaoqian took a few breaths and then helped open the rolled-up poster.
She was very curious about what the boss's new game "Slam Dunk" was like.
Currently, only Zheng Rong has seen it in Youxianqi Company.
Posters were opened one by one.
The first picture shows a boy with red hair, domineering eyes, and handsome appearance.
The second picture is of a boy with an oval face and fox eyes, who is very delicate and equally handsome.
Just looking at these two posters, Yu Xiaoqian couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, so handsome!"
Even Tang Yu, who had already read the "Slam Dunk" comic, couldn't help but take a few more glances. The poster, which is almost life-like in proportion, better shows the handsomeness of the two protagonists Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede.
Yunfeng glanced at all the posters and said with satisfaction: "Very good."
At this time, the employees of Youxianqi Audio and Video Studio gathered around.
Lu Xiaojia said to her colleagues: "Look, what I said is right. The boss definitely can't draw cartoon style."
Hearing this, Yun Feng smiled and said, "That's not necessarily the case."
In fact, the "Slam Dunk" comic is interspersed with cartoon style, but not a lot.
Wei Xue couldn't help but sigh: "As expected of the boss, he can handle both martial arts and urban styles with ease."
Yunfeng was happy and said in a joking manner: "I accept this compliment."
In fact, in the original work, when it first started, the painting style was constantly changing, from the battle to Hainan, to the battle to Lingnan, to the battle to Fengtama, to the battle of Sanno. As the author's first long-length serialized work, the big change in the style of painting is almost impossible. Avoided.
After systematic adaptation, the painting style is more perfect and unified.
Here, the employees of Youxianqi Audio and Video Studio began to put up posters.
Yunfeng and Tang Yulai walked towards the changing rooms set up in the exhibition hall.
"Aren't they both out yet?"
"I came out and went in again. Some of the decorations on my clothes were not done properly."
…
Inside the locker room were Li Junyi and Xia Dachuan who wanted to cosplay. Waiting outside were their girlfriends, Yi Xiaoxiao and Su Feiyan.
"I'll go in and take a look." After saying that, Yunfeng stepped into the men's locker room.
but……
It was a bit crowded inside, and there were all cosplayers changing clothes.
Yunfeng found Li Junyi and Xia Dachuan in the innermost place. After looking at them, he said, "It smells like something inside."
Li Junyi shook off his shawl-length wig and said, "Yeah, I just said that I look a bit like Nie Feng."
Xia Dachuan put the peerless sword on his shoulder, struck a pose, and said, "Let me ask you, handsome - not - handsome!"
"Don't say it..." Yunfeng put his chin on his hand and said seriously: "You two are ten years older, you are really the best choice to play Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng."
Li Junyi said with a smile: "This is what you said, I will keep it in mind."
Xia Dachuan also joked: "I'm not old enough, so I put on make-up to make it happen. Do you have any ideas to vote for a movie or TV series?"
Cosplay is not like it, clothing and makeup are very important, both are indispensable, and neither is complete without the other.
Today, Li Junyi and Xia Dachuan's costumes and makeup are very good.
To be honest, there are two or three similarities.
This refers to appearance. As for temperament and aura, they are completely different.
Yunfeng looked at his phone and then said: "It's almost time, let's go out."
…
In the exhibition hall, the largest booth belongs to MD Company, which has dozens of best-selling comics, plus animations and games derived from them, so there must be enough space.
Next, there are the three major domestic comic websites, Penguin Comics, Kuaibo Comics, and Kankan Comics, as well as well-known comic periodicals, such as Comic DreamWorks, Youxianqi Comics, and Qu Comics.
As it approaches 12 noon, ticket inspection begins.
People entered the exhibition hall one after another.
Those photography enthusiasts are looking for targets to take photos with their long guns and short cannons.
As for tourists, they take the Comic Exhibition Guide and follow the route above to find the booth they want to see.
"Let's go to MD Company's booth first. "Iron Men" is out as a game. Let's go and give it a try while there are still few people around."
"Okay, I just happened to go see if there are any new figures of "Quantum Man"."
…
"These legs...oh no, these clothes are so white."
"Well, this 'White Angel' cosplay has to be quite realistic."
…
"I didn't expect that Xianqi Comics would have a booth, but it's just "Feng Yun I" and there are only a few issues. Can there be something on display?"
"You'll know after taking a look. Anyway, I want to take a walk."
…
The deserted exhibition hall suddenly became lively.
Various shutter sounds, chatter and laughter can be heard all the time.
Yunfeng came to the ticket gate alone, stretched his neck and looked outside.
"Brother~"
"Brother, we are here!"
…
Yun Yun and Yun Lin, who were waiting in line to check in, saw Yun Feng and immediately waved.
There were a lot of things going on during this National Day holiday. Yunfeng couldn't go home, so he simply asked his younger sister and younger brother to come over to Magic City for two days.
After checking in, Yunfeng asked: "Would you like to go shopping by yourself first, or follow me?"
Yun Lin looked left and right, full of curiosity about this so-called "comic exhibition", and said: "Brother, I want to go shopping first."
Yun Yun didn't seem very interested, so she stood next to Yun Feng and said, "Brother, I'll follow you."
Yunfeng nodded and said to Yun Lin: "I'm at the booth of Youxianqi Company. Just come and find us there later."
"Okay brother." After saying that, Yunlin ran away like a curious baby.
"Let's go over there." Yunfeng led Yunyun to the booth of Youxianqi Company.
"Brother, isn't that the protagonist in your comic?" Yun Yun saw Li Junyi and Xia Dachuan who were taking pictures with photographers.
"They are all my friends. Because I couldn't find suitable cosplay actors, I invited them to make guest appearances." Yunfeng explained.
Thanks to [小●Zhai] for the 100 starting coins.
