Is this cartoonist mentally ill?.

Chapter 440 Reasons for Failure

Yang Shuzhun's eyes flickered and changed as he looked at Lin Qingshan who was really walking straight up to him.

You have to know that they are competitors, and he had directly challenged Lin Qingshan before.

Lin Qingshan must remember that face-to-face challenge, even though it was several years ago.

Moreover, his "The Gods" has "suppressed" Lin Qingshan's comic works several times.

Lin Qingshan will definitely remember him, and may even be very envious and jealous of him.

However, now "The Taoist Priestess" has surpassed "The Gods" again, and its popularity continues to rise. Lin Qingshan should be proud of himself.

So he came to me now... to make his own declaration of victory?

Just when he was wondering why Lin Qingshan came to see him...

Lin Qingshan said excitedly, "Teacher Yangyangshu, I am your fan! Are you free to chat with me now?"

He is indeed a fan of Yang Shuzhun, both in his previous life and in this parallel world.

however……

Yang Shuzhun was slightly stunned. Lin Qingshan, a cartoonist who was also his competitor, actually said that he was his fan?

impossible! Absolutely impossible!
The key point is that they are competitors of the same generation. If you say that Lin Qingshan is Yang Shuzhun's senior or junior, there is nothing wrong with saying such things.

But how can peers say that they are fans of their competitors?

Even Yang Shuzhun liked Lin Qingshan's comic works very much. He had read them many times and even borrowed many details from them.

But he would not tell others that he was a fan of Lin Qingshan.

Lin Qingshan said so...the only possibility is that he wanted to come here to show off to himself?
"You actually want to show off to me..."

Yang Shuzhun immediately pretended to be indifferent.

"show off?"

Lin Qingshan was a little curious and said, "No, I'm really a fan of your "The Gods", Mr. Yangyangshu. The plot you drew is really great!"

“I really think you have great talent!”

Looking at Lin Qingshan's serious and truly admiring look, Yang Shuzhun suddenly began to doubt himself.

Is it possible...

Is Lin Qingshan really his fan?

But even if the two are competitors, why can the other party express it so generously?

Yang Shuzhun was a little confused about Lin Qingshan, but...

He looked at Lin Qingshan with a very strange look, and seemed to be surprised that Lin Qingshan really had some mental problems.

After all, although Lin Qingshan is a well-known cartoonist and a recognized genius - not only in comic creation, but also in academics.

However, his tragic experiences in the past dealt him a huge blow and caused him to have mental problems.

So... Lin Qingshan really didn't mean anything sarcastic, he was just expressing his love for his work honestly and directly.

This made Yang Shuzhun suddenly feel a sense of joy and pride in his heart.

You see, even Lin Qingshan, a cartoonist praised by everyone as a genius, has his competitors impressed by his talent.

He was absolutely right.

But at this moment...

"But Mr. Yanyangshu, there seems to be some problems with the direction of the plot of "The Gods"."

Lin Qingshan suddenly approached Yang Shuzhun and whispered, "If this continues... things will get bad for "The Gods" later."

Yang Shuzhun frowned immediately and said, "What could be wrong with "The Gods"?"

"In terms of the character creation..."

Lin Qingshan scratched his head. In fact, he also felt a little embarrassed.

After all, it's someone else's work, and it's not his turn as a plagiarist to give comments.

But he was just giving friendly advice as a fan.

So he went on to say, "Sad boy... Actually, everyone wants to see the moment when he fully grows up. Although it is good to keep the character's personality traits, I think the follow-up can allow the bad boy to truly grow up and get rid of the character's weaknesses."

"Isn't it time for the loser to grow up?"

However, Yang Shuzhun frowned and said, "He has grown very fast and will continue to grow. Isn't this the essence of hot-blooded youth comics?"

“Not really…”

Lin Qingshan scratched his head and continued, "Teacher Yangyangshu, don't you think that the loser only realizes and fights hard at the last moment? Is he too hesitant?"

"I think human life is the most precious thing, and this is the only way to show how precious the protagonist's sacrifice is."

Yang Shuzhun still said, "If you just fight with others casually, it won't seem important anymore."

"But such a character would still appear cowardly."

Lin Qingshan became firm at this time and said, "In the early stage, you can still hesitate because you cherish your life, but later... when there are not many things left, you should no longer cherish your life, because losing your life is not as terrible as losing everything and only having life left."

Just like those soldiers who defend their country, do they value their lives?
They don’t care about their lives, but does this mean that the lives they sacrifice are unimportant?
Does their sacrifice seem unimportant?
no.

The lives and sacrifices given are still very important, and no one can forget the most dazzling brilliance of human nature they displayed at that moment.

In fact, even if the protagonist Yang Mingfei of "The Protoss" hesitated, he gave his life to save others, and his life and sacrifice were also very important.

But the point is…his hesitation might end up making the cost of his life even worse.

What was the good thing for the bad guy to give up his life and sacrifice himself?
It is for the sake of the people who are important to you, to save and restore their lives.

But if he hesitated for a moment longer like Yang Mingfei did, he would lose the chance to save Eri's life.

However, although what happened to Eri was regrettable, everyone can still understand it.

But if you have lost once and still hesitate, it would be very stupid.

Humans are more or less averse to stupidity. They will definitely feel a certain disgust towards people who are obviously too stupid, especially those who cannot learn after several attempts.

Yang Mingfei is like this now. You can say whether he has grown or not, but you can't say he hasn't grown at all.

However, I have only grown a little after four years of college, especially in terms of personality, and the growth in this aspect can only be described as superficial.

"No, no, no, you still don't understand."

Yang Shuzhun continued confidently, "People are complicated. It is precisely because of their cowardly character that their reckless courage at that moment is even more precious... And this is how Nuonuo knows how much Yang Mingfei loves her."

Lin Qingshan blinked when he heard this. He understood that Yang Shuzhun wanted to make the protagonist of "The Gods" more three-dimensional and complex. Yes, real people are not so monotonous. Only the characters in the works have stereotyped and monotonous personality traits.

A real person has a selfless side and a greedy side, a true side and a hypocritical side, a sinful side and a kind side.

These are all matters that need to be debated.

A bad person can also be kind to his friends and relatives, and even occasionally show kindness to some passers-by.

But having said that, only real people in reality are so complex. In fantasy works, a character can only be slightly complex at most, just to make it appear more three-dimensional.

But it really allows a character to show extremely fragmented personality traits and reflect his authenticity...

It can only be said that it is very troublesome and will make fans feel very uncomfortable.

It's like you are portraying a character who is originally a villain who is against the protagonist group, but suddenly at the end he comes to his senses and chooses to help the protagonist group fight. Do you think it is very disconnected and inconsistent?

But in reality, people will indeed "come to their senses" at some point, even without any suitable reason or logic.

Just like when you suddenly want to eat something one day, reality is actually the least logical.

But fantasy works are not like that, fantasy works must follow logic.

For example, if in a historical novel the protagonist has only 3,000 soldiers against an enemy force of 400,000, this would definitely be a battle doomed to failure.

However, at this moment, it is written that a meteorite suddenly fell from the sky, killing and injuring countless enemies of the protagonist, causing chaos.

On the contrary, no one on the protagonist's side was killed or injured by the meteorite. Then the protagonist led his army and defeated the opposing army of 400,000 with only 3,000 soldiers.

Anyone who sees this kind of plot will think it is too outrageous and that such a thing could never happen.

However, in real history, Emperor Guangwu, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, defeated the main force of Wang Mang's Xin Dynasty's 400,000 troops in this way...

So reality requires even less logic than fantasy.

But fantasy works are very unfair and they have to be logical.

"Your behavior is illogical... and Mr. Itchy Mouse, do you really think..."

For the first time, the mentally ill Lin Qingshan felt speechless and said, "Is it really okay for the protagonist to be with Nuonuo in the end?"

"Why not? They really love each other."

Yang Mingfei became impatient and said, "Okay, Lin Qingshan, stop talking. This is my comic work!"

Lin Qingshan blinked, but he continued to try, saying, "I just want to make some suggestions as a fan of Mr. Itchy Mouse."

"That's a good suggestion, but I urge you not to bring it up."

Yang Shuzhun said expressionlessly, "I know you are very successful and popular now, but do you have the right to tell me what to do with my work?"

"no……"

Lin Qingshan felt a little troubled. Why was it so difficult to help "The Gods" have a good ending?
"If you are just a fan, then you just need to support me."

Yang Shuzhun said, "As for the rest, I can only say forget it. As a creator, I think you don't want others to judge your work, right?"

"Actually...it's okay."

Lin Qingshan thought for a moment and said, "If there is really a problem, I will correct it."

But he is a plagiarist, so why should he change anything? There is nothing wrong with these original popular works, so of course there is no need to change them.

Yang Shuzhun sneered and said, "In fact, you and I are the same kind of people, but you haven't fallen yet."

Lin Qingshan seemed a little at a loss again. After all, he was just a plagiarist.

"But I won't admit defeat. The current victory or defeat is only temporary."

Yang Shuzhun seemed to have suddenly ignited his second-year soul and said, "Watch out Lin Qingshan, I will personally take back everything I lost one by one!"

Then he turned and stalked away.

Lin Qingshan blinked, but was too embarrassed to continue talking to Yang Shuzhun.

Judging from the situation... the other party is going to continue to be stubborn to the end.

Lin Qingshan felt a little powerless.

Soon, another group of people watched Yang Shuzhun leave and continued to surround him.

"Teacher Aoyama..."

……

The comics industry's newcomer grand prize award ceremony has ended.

However, at this award ceremony, Lin Qingshan seemed to have become the real protagonist of the ceremony, stealing all the limelight.

This not only attracted much attention in the industry, but also attracted heated discussions from the outside world.

After all, this is the Internet age.

The rookie award ceremony and even the annual meeting within the comics industry are not as mysterious as they used to be.

The official website of Manjie even produced its own award ceremony and released some interview footage, so all comic fans saw how popular Lin Qingshan was at the Newcomer Award ceremony, as if he had the aura of a protagonist.

There was also the conversation between him and Yang Shuzhun earlier - the part where he claimed to be a fan of Yang Shuzhun.

It immediately aroused heated discussion among everyone.

"I never thought that Qingshan the old thief is a fan of Yangyangshu the old thief."

"The beginning of 'Divine Clan' is indeed good, and Qingshan the old thief also seems to be the kind of person who is heartless and simply likes good works, so... it's not surprising."

"As a fan, after seeing the current plot of "The Protoss", how can Qingshan Laozei hold back from scolding Yangyangshu Laozei?"

"We are all in the same industry, half colleagues. We see each other every day in this circle... It is definitely impossible for us to open a big deal face to face."

"I think it would be great if Qingshan Laozei could give some advice and pass on some experience to Yanyangshu Laozei. Really, Protoss is relying on big players right now."

"'The Gods' is over. I'm saying that the current Yang Mingfei is getting more and more annoying. He's still obsessed with his boss' girlfriend and has a childlike personality. He's pretty stupid. I have a phobia for stupidity and I really hate this kind of protagonist more and more."

"I can only say that if Yang Mingfei could learn a little from the protagonists in Qingshan Laozei's works, such as David, Agni, Denci, and Shinichi, he wouldn't be so annoying now."

"The key is that the plot and setting of Return of the Dead are really based on the current situation. It's not just a problem with the character creation, but the entire comic plot has problems."

"But the most disgusting thing is the protagonist. He seems to have not grown at all. He always fails and is always obsessed with Nono."

"Let's not talk about "Protoss". By the way, the new show "Fate Zero" on C Station is going to start airing tonight!"

"Yeah, it's better to watch the new animation of Qingshan Laozei than to watch "God Clan". It's much better than that thing that gives you the sudden red stone."
