“in order to prevent her from painting, the family of a cartoonist did not hesitate to use her relationship to send her to join the army.”

“A cartoonist turned to paint an illustration.”

“There is a demon who has died and died.”

——If you have witnessed the development of domestic animation at this stage from 06 to 15 years and even earlier, you should know more about these rumors or real events. For a long time, it was extremely difficult for a comic book author to support himself. One day you saw a potential newcomer author in the magazine, but there was no news of him in the future. It was commonplace in those days

(There is a demon author who went deep in 2015, died many years ago, and could not get the family to understand, but insisted on the comic dream.)

Until the rise of the network platform, and the emergence of some high-traffic animations, the domestic online comics’ industry suddenly got funding from all parties, suddenly prospered. Along with the prosperity of domestic comics, there is an increase in the number of employees. It was almost impossible to imagine “one Saturday more”, and it became possible under the organization of the studio

However, has domestic comics really achieved good development? A few months ago, the “Great Horned Beetle Comic” broke the arrears of cartoonists’ fees, and even included some of the most prestigious cartoonists on the Internet, with a total amount of “up to” more than five million. This amount is not much in some other traditional industries, but it is already arrears in the manuscripts and studios within a few months, and many practitioners have already reached the point where they can’t afford the rent

(The author of “Foxboy Little Red Niang” once fell into a copyright dispute with the comic company Summer Island. For a long time, it should have been taken away by the company in the interests of the author, and the author has difficulty living.)

(The bighorn bug comic that happened in the event of arrears).

Things are not over yet. After a while, the rice film industry was also owed arrears of royalties and copyrights. Even if it is a “strong” such as Tencent Animation, a summer file has been transformed into several well-known online novels, and it seems to have fallen into silence. There are not many moves in a few months

In this way, the entire market seems to have never experienced the “Foxboy Little Matchmaker” and “Under the One Man”. These quality changes have been born, and they have been beaten back. “The comic industry will starve to death.” The age of people. Many people ask: Is this the trend of domestic comics? Is this a normal industry adjustment, or will it all the way to the end?

I think it’s too early to define it now, but many of the problems that are exposed are still worth talking about

The first and foremost is the economic bubble of the domestic animation industry. The blowout of the comics and animation industry began after the animation of “The Return of the Great Saints”. Because of the huge economic benefits brought by this animation, the animation industry became a scent, and capital entered the industry in large quantities

However, in fact, this industry is far from being ready for self-improvement. Many of Tencent’s comic book adaptations are free of charge. All the paid animations need only vip. Many of the hand-made and other derivative peripherals can’t reach the potential of becoming an “explosive model”, and the return of funds supporting this industry is actually : Mobile game development. The benefits of the comics themselves are the smallest part

If these first-line translations can’t find a way to make money by themselves, those second- and third-line free comics are even more dangerous. These works are almost impossible to support the creators’ income – most of the source of the fee is the investment in financing. In other words, whether the platform itself can be profitable is also a big problem

Secondly, the manuscript fee could not be sent down. In order to support himself, the comic book author had to explode and win by volume, which led to the same theme

Juveniles have changed the novels of the works in large quantities; the girls to the comics are the world of “overbearing presidents”, and the bridges that have been rejected by the mainstream novel market can be seen here, called the living fossil. The quality of the comic itself has become the least important component. It’s like the picture that is popular in QQ space: the taste of this woman is damn sweet! The slightly collapsed picture and the old-fashioned stalk are the real portrayal of many comics in the world

In this way, the platform dragged the author, the author dragged the platform, all the way down, until the capital was withdrawn, the whole industry fell into a cold winter. This industry is like the original domestic game, and there is no ability to take care of itself. How to develop a self-sufficient road? I hope that in the new year, we will get the answer
