Cartoonist's Dream

The Ideal Fund sounds very handsome, but in fact the main content is just free breakfast and lunch. However, in Li Mu’s opinion, its impact is far-reaching.

In the 21st century, compared with the era of the Spring and Autumn and the Three Kingdoms, when the sons cannibalize each other, the social productivity has undergone great changes.In this era, as long as the limbs are sound and there is a lot of strength, there is no need to worry about starving to death.

However, in such a big era, why do Chinese people have to rush to death every day for jobs they don't want to do?Why is it being squeezed to perfection?Why can't you let go of your work and pursue your ideals?

Everyone recognizes that China is a copycat country rather than an innovative country.This kind of consensus has been created in the world - not because Chinese people are stupid, nor is it because "Chinese people lack creativity" as other countries say.

The gap between the "copycat country" and the "innovative country" is mainly due to the problems of the state system. [

Under the protection of social welfare in Japan, Europe, and the United States, they don't have to worry about whether they have savings in their banks, and they can survive even if they don't work for a short time after unemployment.Therefore, they can "waste" a lot of time doing "meaningful" things. Of course, many of them are doing meaningful things.

In China, if you don’t want to starve to death after losing your job, and dare not go to the hospital if you are sick, you have to work hard to save money.Coupled with the inappropriate squeeze carried out by the state in order to promote social development.The people of the country can only be exhausted, and how dare they spend time pursuing those unprofitable illusions in daily life.

If you want to pursue your ideals, you have to face the courage of being starved to death.

Worse is the ideology fostered in the money society, in China [do not make money, but work is stupid].

In the past, whenever colleagues asked about Limu—May [-]st, National Day, what do you do in your spare time.Li Mu didn't even dare to say that he was drawing manga.There are usually two reactions to this statement...

The first type is surprised by this information, "It's amazing. So you can draw manga"; the second type is a perfunctory compliment, "This interest is good, good, good."They then follow up with the question "Did you make money?"

...Did you make money drawing comics?

... have you made money?

……make money?

……money.

This is the mentality of the Chinese people, who spend more time than others, but get less money than others-no matter how you look at it, it is stupid.

—I can't lift my head.

Especially the first one or two times, I carefully prepared for more than half a year (3 hours a day) and saw that the degree of completion was on par with those who entered the industry.After several turnovers, what I got was only 50 yuan for comic manuscripts, which was not enough to go to a sauna shop to take a sauna.The next few comics can be sold for 200-500, and this income will still be laughed at by friends.

Ordinary friends will still be perfunctory, and the better friends are, the more they will persuade: "Don't paint, you can make a little money after three or four months, why don't you use your free time to help me with a project. "... For projects that programmers take privately in their free time, sometimes a small group of 4 or 5 people can take over 10 projects.After half a year, I can earn [-] to [-] extra money,

My friend doesn't mean that I have to take on the project, but I just feel that Limu is at a disadvantage for wasting time drawing comics.But think about it from another angle, how about giving up work altogether, or working 4 hours and 8 hours drawing manga?

What if... I gave up my job at that time and put the 9 hours I saved in the company into comics.Drawing comics for a month should actually earn 800 yuan, and more importantly, the speed, quality and popularity of comics will grow rapidly.

If ... without the emotional coercion of society, family and friends, the first hypothesis may have become a reality.Maybe I didn’t make as much money as I did when I became a store manager later, but at least I could keep growing on the path I like.

If... There is an ideal fund.

That's right, if there is an ideal fund.If there is a place where you can get three meals a day for free.In this way, I don't need to run around for a living, and I can spend 16 hours a day pursuing my comic ideals.At the same time, you don't have to worry about your family.As long as there is an ideal fund, they will not starve to death, and the manuscript fees they usually save are enough to provide them with medical care. [

Ideal Fund aims at two points——

One is to create a worry-free environment for adventurers who pursue ideals, creations, and comics, so that they can pursue their ideals forward.

The second is to subtly change people's concept of pursuing ideals within four to five years.When there are more people pursuing ideals, society will begin to understand that they are not fools, but real warriors.

The fund should cover the whole country, even the whole world.

Before that, let's first focus on getting a supply point in Nanhua and surrounding counties and cities... The dishes are green vegetable porridge or steamed buns with green vegetables, adopting the national strategy of "you can't die of hunger, you can't eat well".If you want to change the taste, you have to work harder!The elderly may be able to eat preserved egg and lean meat porridge, but it seems that modern times advocate a vegetarian diet, which is healthier. The specific situation will have to wait for t Press to make money before making detailed plans.

medical commune

Before the reform and opening up, there was a kind of medical commune, which could cover all kinds of diseases for only 5 cents.Don't think about it, this is not a hospital run by charlatans, but a hospital run by the state under the general environment.As the last daughter of the Li family, Li Xiuli was born weak and sick and needed to go to the hospital frequently. Without this system, she would have died long ago.

At that time, it cost 5 cents to see a cough, and the medicine was included. Although the medicine was cheap, it could cure the disease quickly; Around 5, the commune still existed for a period of time after the reform and opening up, and many old people in their twilight years cherished the memory of that time very much.

Although the big pot of rice has been criticized, the medical system is really good.Why do you have to spend four to five hundred to go to the hospital to see the medicine that can cure the disease for a few cents?The establishment of the medical commune is precisely to relieve creators from worrying about having no money for medical treatment, and to liberate them from the pressure of supporting the elderly and family.

Food and medical treatment are available, what are the creators worried about?In addition to the poor food, the most basic living security has been established, and the labor force will be liberated from heavy work.People start to think and create; to reflect on society, the environment, and human beings; the author's works can be thought-provoking like American blockbusters.

comic book foundation

It is an award-giving foundation similar to the Japan Cartoonists Association Award, Tezuka Osamu Culture Award, Kodansha Manga, Nebula Award, Akutagawa Ryunosuke Award and even the Nobel Prize.

Why are Chinese manga not as good as Japanese manga?That's because the Japanese manga industry has long embarked on the road of revenue first, but the Chinese manga market has been occupied by some inexplicable "big-headed animals".Due to the guidance of politicians and the current situation of big-headed animals rampant in the market, China Manga has never been able to embark on the path of healthy competition.

t Publishing House's 70% share dividends are piled up as bonuses. After the company develops properly, it will randomly set up a few million yuan awards. How can any cartoonist not flock to it?At that time, I am afraid that they will no longer hesitate between politicians and market interests, and the cartoons they create will no longer be "big-headed animals".

There is no way for Chinese comics to be the first in terms of revenue, so Limu helped Guoman dig a way.

The champion may be selected by the selection committee, voted by the readers, or selected by Li Mu himself... There are always different methods of fairness in various selection methods.Popular cartoonists win by voting, and emerging cartoonists win by judges. Anyway, the Comic Foundation always gives every comic author a chance.

In the suburbs, Qingshan, which was originally supposed to be a villa area, has been contracted by Limu, intending to build a comic castle without destroying the vegetation as much as possible, which will serve as a studio, a comic museum and a landmark of the domestic comic circle.

"zzzzzzz"

When Limu finished explaining the three funds, Isa had lowered her face, sleeping peacefully as if she was very tired.

Li Mu was not sure if she was still awake, and took the lead in lowering the volume of her speech:

"As I said just now, I don't care if the video is made public, but if you can find it, you should try to find it. Anyway, I will not compromise with those who get something for nothing, and blackmailers don't want to get a penny."

After accumulating three years of original funds, a small treasury has now been formed.Limu never thought of earning so much money. Originally, he just wanted to buy two buildings to protect his parents, and he just wanted to buy shares in a promising company.Then I ran to Japan to pursue my comics career after reckoning. Who would have thought that Shangguo Publishing House could open up the mainland market. [

Now T Publishing House is also working hard.

Everyone is moving forward unswervingly.

Li Mu felt that he had been a little depressed in the past two months, and the start-up gold coins he had saved with great difficulty were used up to the point of being drained, and a feeling of extreme urgency to recover time sprouted in his heart.

It's time to make up your mind That special mission that has been stuck for almost a year:

[Special task body finger painting: Please use finger painting skills to draw art works on at least 10 adult men and women, the painting area should not be less than 90%...] (To be continued.
