Chapter 1294: Chapter 1078: The First Generation Cute King
Although Tang Yi tried to emphasize that Xiao Mai was her “wife,” in the eyes of the readers, she could probably only bee Xiao Mai’s “old mother.”
As for “old father”?
That’s naturally the original author of the ic, Shadow.
With her creative passion ignited, Tang Yi quickly adapted to Xiao Mai’s art style, and following the plot outline provided by Shadow, she began her subsequent creation with her own interpretation.
A few days later.
The ic named “My Sister Xiao Mai the Slacker” was officially launched on the League’s ic website!
Speaking of which…
Thanks to those ics provided by Shadow, the League has now bee the largest and most successful ic website on Blue Star.
Shadow’s status, naturally, also rose with the tide, revered by readers as the true “God of ics.”
A collaboration between the God of ics and top ic artist Tang Yi to launch “My Sister Xiao Mai the Slacker” certainly started with the League’s top-tier promotional resources.
The website banner was raised high!
In addition, at the end of the latest chapters of other ics on the site, including Dead Sea of Fire, “chapter remendations” were also arranged.
What’s known as a ic artist’s chapter remendation is actually character crossovers, such remendations are very fun and have a better effect than mere text.
Xiao Mai, as a newer in the “Shadow ic League,” officially makes her debut!
That’s right, the [Shadow ic League].
This is a mon term used on the current League’s ic website.
Since the League’s hottest ics are all the work of Shadow’s hand, that’s why everyone came up with such a name to uniformly describe all of Shadow’s ics.
Shadow himself is the “Father of the League.”
Sort of like the “Father of Marvel” Stan Lee to the significance of the Marvel series on Earth.
But quite clearly:
Shadow’s presence is much stronger than Stan Lee’s in the Marvel series.
Shadow is the real ‘old father,’ even though the League now can attract readers with works other than those by Shadow, eighty percent of the top ics are still created by him.
Therefore.
Xiao Mai can be said to have been born under the halo of Shadow, the “old father.”
This “My Sister Xiao Mai the Slacker” is naturally set to bee the little princess of the Shadow ic family.
And in the shadow of these halos, the newly born “My Sister Xiao Mai the Slacker” did not disappoint everyone’s expectations.
As soon as the ic launched, it garnered widespread support!
The refreshingly “cute style” instantly healed the hearts of countless otakus!
“So cute it should be illegal!”
“I declare that from today onwards, Xiao Mai is my wife!”
“Draw your sword, love rivals!”
“Pass it on, those two dead fat otakus upstairs are going to fence!”
“Pass it on, the two dead fat otakus are fighting over Xiao Mai in a private duel!”
“Pass it on, all the dead fat otakus from Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, and Wei have bee Xiao Mai’s harem!”
“Wife is so cute!”
“Can the League act faster? I’ve already prepared the money for the figures!”
“Looking down on who, bring out the Xiao Mai merchandise quickly, I want to splurge on my wife!”
Of course, figures and the like couldn’t e out that fast.
However, the animation rights sparked the interest of many panies, but unfortunately, the League is controlled by Starlight, and the producer is naturally Starlight Animation.
In fact.
Taking advantage of a series of ics from the League, feasting on various copyright dividends, the Starlight animation department is now semi-independent, and last year’s turnover even exceeded eighty percent of the pany’s departments.
Additionally…
Before the animation, Xiao Mai’s cloak and other iconic peripherals in the animation were quickly put into production and achieved extremely high sales within just a few days.
Xiao Mai has truly bee the “Moe King”!
This achievement shocked many people in the anime circle.
It’s like there’s a bit of a “2D Wave” ing.
The readers’ behavior of calling Xiao Mai “wife” even triggered quite a bit of media coverage.
Lin Yuan found this quite unexpected.
He certainly knew that Xiao Mai’s popularity wouldn’t be low and was aware of the power of moe ics, but the influence seemed a bit too great. Could it be because Xiao Mai became Blue Star’s “first-generation Moe King”?
Alright.
The key reason for Xiao Mai’s success is the relationship with Shadow, the little princess of the Shadow cartoonist family, this dazzling halo.
Lin Yuan didn’t realize:
Shadow had already unknowingly bee a god in the hearts of thousands of ic lovers.
No matter what he drew, as long as the quality wasn’t poor, the performance of his works would inevitably surpass his previous life, after all, he had an unparalleled fame bonus.
…
Shadow Studio.
Lin Yuan was clicking away at the keyboard in his office.
With the last byte typed, Lin Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief—The novel “The Martian Rescue” is pleted!
“Uncle Jin!”
Lin Yuan called Jin Mu: “I just wrote a novel, help me arrange the publishing matters.”
“Publishing?”
Jin Mu was stunned, then exclaimed with joy: “I’ve been following your blog, is this new book the sci-fi novel about surviving on Mars that you mentioned on your blog before?”
“Yes.”
“I understand.”
Jin Mu silently admired Lin Yuan’s writing efficiency and suddenly said: “Let’s wait a bit.”
Lin Yuan: “Wait?”
Jin Mu took Lin Yuan’s manuscript: “Next month, Wei Continent is going to hold the annual Star River Award selection, which is the most authoritative sci-fi novel award in Wei Continent. We can submit our work there to see if we can contend for an award or something. If we win an award there, it will have a great positive effect on sales.”
“Is that necessary?”
“It’s not necessary in our market, but you want to break into the sci-fi market of Wei Continent, don’t you? It is quite necessary there. The sci-fi fans there have a strong sense of exclusion. Apart from Zhong Continent, whose level is slightly higher than theirs, they are not interested in sci-fi novels from other continents. They always think that other continents’ authors can’t write good sci-fi. If our work is recognized by the Star River Award, then breaking into Wei Continent’s market will be much easier because their recognition of the Star River Award is very high.”
“Okay.”
“There’s not much time left, the deadline is probably in the next few days. I thought you wouldn’t be able to make it, but if you can, that’s the best. We’ll have Silver Blue Books submit it for us, they have specialized contact channels.”
Jin Mu said with a smile.
Lin Yuan nodded in agreement.
He understood what Jin Mu meant. Winning an award is like gilding the work; with this layer of gold plating, people would anticipate more.
This is the awkwardness of the newly merged New Continent.
Chu Kuang’s fame totally works among Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, and Zhao, and doesn’t need awards for gilding, but to enter the sci-fi market of Wei Continent with sci-fi novels, this kind of gilding is needed. After all, it’s only been a few months since Wei Continent joined the merger, the reader base isn’t high, and they are far less receptive to old rascal than other merged continents.
“Then I’ll head back first.”
After finishing the book, Lin Yuan didn’t need to worry about the rest; Jin Mu would take care of everything clearly.
“Goodbye.”
Jin Mu took out his cell phone to contact Silver Blue Books.
Chu Kuang’s first two sci-fi works were short stories published directly on the blog. This time, it’s a longer short story that definitely needs to go through publishing channels, and that would require Silver Blue Books to take care of the specifics.
